Omega Summoner

Adrian thought that he heard wrong, but he absolutely heard right. The things that are happening in the eastern continent has immediately been attributed by one of its divine beasts to dark gods. Adrian does not know if it is really one of the dark gods or one of the distorted gods.

From what Adrian knows, only the gods that re in the divine realm use this distinction. Even the Twin Gods do not immediately attribute anything bad when it is towards other gods. Then again, there are numerous semi divine entities in the eastern continent and anyone of them could have been the culprit.

"Are you sure that the things that happened are the work of dark gods or distorted gods? In my knowledge, the eastern continent has some of their fallen gods reincarnating as mortals." Adrian stated as he raised a valid point. And educated the Vermillion Bird about the difference of dark gods and distorted gods.

"Whatever is happening, the eastern continent has become more dangerous than before. The death rate of living beings is increasing due to something, but I do not know what it is. It might also be the result of their greed as there have been numerous treasure wells or inheritance dungeons that spawn." The Vermillion Bird stated.

The Vermillion Bird touched on a subject that Adrian is interested with. The treasure wells are essentially dungeons that house special treasures that could be they key to becoming powerful. Some of the treasures found in such places is a blade that can even cut down an Immortal which is a powerful person in the eastern continent.

Inheritance dungeons are also special dungeons that can pass down techniques and even job classes to those that pas their trials. The inheritance dungeons are even rarer than the treasure wells, but they also produce the largest amounts of deaths. A lot of people would try their luck inside one as even those that are just average people that are heavy risk takers opt to go inside.

"It is not your problem that they go inside to their deaths as it is their choice. They have probably made their choice that living as they are now no different from death. Some might be lucky to stay alive until the inheritance is claimed but a vast majority will definitely die should something like a fate changing item is given." Adrian stated.

Adrian did not realize that they have been chatting for quite some time as the stories of the Vermillion Bird often tells him about the state of the eastern continent. The Vermillion Bird would even show him illusions if the description of events is not clear to him. Only when the Vermillion Bird pointed that Adrian should get going is the time that he left the tower.

Adrian bid his farewell to the Vermillion Bird as he was escorted out of the tower. The Vermillion Bird could be seen as feeling refreshed because it has never found someone it calls a friend. The Vermillion Bird might be surrounded by a lot of people but all of them pray to it. The only one that gives off the same feeling as Adrian is the priestess that it chose.

"Am I late?" Adrian asked Ai Fang who was clearly waiting for him to arrive.

"You arrived just in time for the departure. Please follow these two who are from our company. We have said that you are an adventurer that our establishment has a contract with. I know that we said that you are an important guest, but we filled out your identity as an up-and-coming adventurer affiliated with us.

The merchant that is the leader of this caravan expects that you will also guard it. For the greatest benefactor, something like that should be a piece of cake for you. Please treat the people in the caravan well as they have a great relationship with the clan as well." Ai Fang bowed as she saw the caravan off.

The two that was introduced to Adrian are a man and a woman who are named Xiaohei and Xiaoyan. They seem to be partners of equal standing as they do not have command over the other. If one were to ask who is in command, then they will definitely look at Adrian as he was given full autonomy to command them by Ai Fang.

The names that they have given seem to also be codenames as their real names are concealed. Even Adrian could not see their real names with Inspect as only the names presented to him are showing in the status panel. The two of them also give off different energies as the male shows off a darker and thicker aura while the female shows a more delicate and refined aura.

Xiaohei is a wielder of a black sword that is covered with talismans. The aura from the sword is fierce and uncontrollable which is why it is currently sealed so that it does not pose any harm to those around it. The one maintaining the seal seems to be Xiaohei as he is proficient in using paper seals and charms.

Xiaoyan does not seem to wield any weapon, but Adrian could see that she uses the paper fan that she is carrying. Adrian does not know where her abilities lie but she must be concealing them for a reason. He decides to not pry into it as they might not even enter battle in the first place due to the heavy guards in the front.

They are only supplementary guards that joined the caravan as they have also business in the north. The real guards of the caravan are a mix of players and NPCs. Adrian and the other two are people that will lend aid to the caravan in exchange for traveling with them.

Being able to travel with the caravan is already a big deal as not everyone could be granted such privilege. The fact that Adrian could join the caravan despite his unknown identity means that the grasp of influence of the Heihudie Clan is immensely large. Not all personnel of the caravan are happy with this though, but they are not ones to disregard a command from the head merchant.

The route that they have planned is relatively safe as they will travel for three days until the first rest stop. It seems that the caravan will also peddle some of their wares on the way which is why there should be an adjustment. A total of one week will be needed to reach the northern region which is already quite fast.

The travel speed that they are going for is not slow as the beasts carrying the goods have great land speed and stamina. The beasts that are loaded with the goods are called the Komodoron which are large lizard monsters the size of buses with six legs. The Komodorons are not lesser dragons, but just naturally evolved lizard monsters located in the southeast region of the eastern continent.

The Komodorons can travel ten times faster than a human, but their speed is greatly reduced due to load on their backs. With loads on their back, they can only travel at half the speed but that is still quite fast. A month of travel time to the northern region is cut to one week because of this.

This merchant caravan is not joking around when it comes to goods delivery as they are quite fast. Adrian talked to one of the players to ask what the requirements are to get the escort mission and they said that one has to have specific stats to join. It seems that Adrian also meets the stat requirement which is why he was able to join.

Adrian also learned that they will be making four stops and they will travel even faster should their cargo lessen per stop. Adrian has no qualms about the stops and even wishes that their cargo will lessen per stop. He wants to reach the northern region as fast as possible while in disguise.

Adrian's very existence could make it difficult for him should his identity be exposed. An Arch Demon coming to the eastern continent is a big deal. He is also a friend of one of the divine beasts which makes him a prime target as well. He was able to stroll in the eastern continent before because Peridot was with her.

Peridot as the sole princess of the Ryujins is a great deterrent to potential threats but that is not always absolute. There seems to be an organization in the eastern continent that is also aiming for the Ryujins. Peridot said that the eastern continent is no longer as organized as it was once.

There are now several people that do not fear the Ryujins as they seem to have the ability to kill them. From Peridot's story, there were couple of Ryujins that came back to the mountain heavily wounded as they were attacked. The eastern continent no longer has a solid power hierarchy compared to before.
