After sleeping for who knows how long, Zarco wake up in a very pleasant mood. He could not even remember when he had such a peaceful sleep last time.
After completely waking up, Zarco suddenly noticed something unbelievable. He was not feeling any pain in his body. Since the day when he got corroded, Zarco would always feel pain coursing through his body. With the low intensity of the pain and his long experience of it, he had gotten used to it. But there had been never a time when this pain was completely gone.
But now, exactly that had happened. Zarco quickly checked body to find that the corrosion that was troubling him all this time was completely gone. Just as Zarco was trying to think how that could happen, he was suddenly given his answer with a very sweet voice.
"No need to think too much about it. I have purified the death energy that was inside you. It might be something hard for a demigod below the level of 600 to do. But for a demigod above that level and with some understanding of the light element, it is not a hard thing to do."
Obviously the person who had answer him was Elena. She was sitting in the same room where Zarco was lying but Zarco had completely failed to notice her presence.
Zarco looked around him and found himself in a hospital like room. He was not the only patient here and the other beds here also had various sick individuals.
As for the reason why Zarco had failed to notice them, that was because all his powers had been locked by some means. Currently, he was just barely strong enough to match a level 3 person. Whatever restriction technique that had been used on him, it was without a doubt very powerful.
Feeling powerless and very relaxed at the same time, Zarco bowed his proud head to Elena for curing him of the death energy curse. Everything that Zarco had done for the last few centuries was all for the sake of curing that. So he was extremely grateful to Elena.
Hearing his gratitude, Elena chuckled a little. Then she said -
"Don't thank me so quickly. There is nothing free in this world. What I have done for you is very valuable and I want you to return the favour."
Even though Elena said this in a mean tone, Zarco did not found it to be mean. He calmly nodded his head and replied -
"If there is anything that this unworthy alchemist could do to repay the favour, I promise to do my best. As currently I'm nothing better than a weak criminal, I don't thing I have much that I can offer."
"Don't worry. You actually have something that we want. And that is your identity. We had made sure that you have not managed to sent the news of your capture back to your guild. So they all should still be in the dark about your defeat and capture."
After hearing this much Zarco could guess what Elena wanted from him. There was no super close bond between the members of the Thunder Destroyer Guild. Almost all the demigods had joined the guild for their own benefit. They had no loyalty to the organisation itself. If someone could offer then better benefit than the guild, then the demigods would not even take a single moment to betray the guild. And they would not even feel guilty about it.
So Zarco immediately nodded his head and told Elena that he would do whatever he was asked. So Elena called Kizuna and she stated to tell him the plans that she had made.
...
Dongding Mu was the deputy leader of the Thunder Destroyer Guild. He was quite a busy person as he was in charge of handling all the personnel who worked for the guild.
During his busy hours, he suddenly got a message from one of his colleagues, the mad alchemist, Zarco. Even though all the demigods working for the organisation had some methods to contact each other without much trouble, they rarely did so. So Dongding Mu was quite curious about why Zarco had contacted him.
From the message, he learnt that their pawn working to destroy the Pure Thunderbolt Trees had faced some kind of trouble. The message had not mentioned what kind of trouble but to solve it, he needed the assistance of a demigod as soon as possible. Zarco was too lazy and too busy with his research to help this pawn, so he wanted Dongding Mu to take the charge.
As the method that Zarco used had limited capacity to carry message, it was understandable that he had not mentioned all the details. But he could not assign any personnel to this mission without knowing about everything in details. So Dongding Mu decided to meet with Zarco in person to learn about the trouble.
So he sent a location to Zarco and told him to come there. He knew that the demigods of the Guild were not loyal at all, so he was very cautious about meeting them alone. That was why the location he had chosen a secret base of Thunder Destroyer Guild which had various powerful formations and only he was able to control them. So even in the case of a betrayal, Dongding would be safe there.
That was not all. Before going, he even checked Zarco's movements for the last few days to make sure that he had not done anything suspicious. Only after finding nothing wrong, he finally left the secret base.
...
Tylor was also a member of the Thunder Destroyer Guild and he was one also the strongest demigod in terms of levels. He was a level 571 powerhouse and was extremely powerful.
But the method he had used to get such a high power level was a bit unusual and after reaching level 571, he was unable to level up anymore. So he had no chance of reaching the rank of an apostle which needed level above 600.
The method that Tylor had used was simple. He had found a secret divine technique that allowed him to absorb the existence of a powerful monster and he could easily reach the level of the monster who was absorbed. But in exchange, the practitioner would only be able to reach the level that the absorbed monster had at the time of its death. Advancement was not a possibility.
He was not the only practitioner of this technique but the other practitioners could only absorb weak beings. But fortunately Tylor had managed to absorb the corpse of a powerful Purple Thunder Beetle and thus had managed to reach such a high level.
But to break the restrictions. He needed to evolve the Purple Thunder Beetle which was only possible by using three large Inazuyan islands as array nodes. That was the goal with which he had joined the Thunder Destroyer Guild.
So Tylor was already secretly building the nodes in a few islands. Suddenly he got the news from his subordinates that one of the nodes was acting weird. That node was almost completed so he did not want anything bad to happen to it. That was why, as soon as he heard the news, Tylor immediately left for that island.
