As Dongding came to the secret base, he first checked if all the formations of this place were working properly or not. After seeing that all of them were fine, he finally relaxed and started to wait for Zarco.
After just a few minutes of wait, he felt Zarco's presence. So Dongding stood up while secretly activating the formation key.
As Zarco entered the room, he lightly greeted Dongding with his regular unfriendly expression. There was no one else with him and Dongding also could not detect anyone else in the area. This made Dongding to relax even more.
So Dongding asked Zarco about what the problem was and why that small fry pawn needed the assistance of a Demigod. In answer, Zarco told him that he was getting targetted by a few rivals who had hired a powerful assasin of level 395. So only a Demigod would be able to get rid of this assasin for him.
This was not an unusual request. That pawn's staying alive was important for the plan of the guild. So Dongding decided to send someone to take care of that assassin.
Just as the talk was finish and Dongding was about to tell Zarco to return back. Suddenly Dongding felt the presence of a second life in this hidden base. Immediately be became alerted and tried to activate all the formation of this place.
But before he could do that, a person clad in completely black ninja like attire suddenly appeared behind him and thrust a violet dagger toward his heart from behind. Dongding was not a weak person, so he immediately tried to dodge.
But then he suddenly felt weak and immediately realised that some kind weakening medicine or potion had been used on him without him realising. There was only one person who could have done this and understanding this, Dongding looked at Zarco with burning rage in his eyes.
"FILTHY TRAITOR !!"
But shouting this was the only thing he was able to do. The dagger of the ninja lady went straight to his heart and the large fist of Zarco also connected with his head.
Dongding was a powerful Night Blessed Demon who shared similar powers with the vampires. So the only way to completely kill him was by destroying his head and heart at the same time. And that was exactly what was done here.
So just like that, the deputy leader of the Thunder Destroyer Guild died without anyone knowing about it.
...
Tylor quickly came to the place where the array was and met up with one of his subordinate there. Seeing Tylor, the subordinate respectfully bowed and said -
"Welcome master Tylor. The node had been fluctuating for quite some time now but the mages here have managed to somehow stabilize it for the time being. But as we don't know the core formation that had been used for these nodes, it is not possible for us to completely get rid of this trouble."
Hearing this, Tylor nodded his head. As this node was extremely important and related to his deepest secrets, he had not told anyone about what they were for and the most essential parts of the formation were created by Tylor himself.
But according to his calculations, there should be no problem with them. Last time when he checked on them, they were working perfectly fine. So Tylor was curious about why they were malfunctioning now.
After going to the large room where the main formation was located, Karlos saw several mages working hard to make sure that the node was functioning properly. Seeing this Tylor was satisfied and went to the centre of the formation to check on the core of the node.
After going to the centre, he held the ball shaped object present there in his hand started to study it to see what was wrong. But just with the first glance he immediately noticed that what he was holding was definitely not the core that he had created but something else.
Immediately after realising that, he tried to throw it away but it was already too late. With a massive burst the ball in his hands exploded and Taylor's senses were blinded for a few second.
After his senses came back, he noticed that he was surrounded by seven demigod rank powerhouse. Seeing this, his heart went cold. As the strongest member of the Thunder Destroyer Guild and a powerhouse above level 570, there were not many people who could make Tylor worried.
Even against 7 or 10 regular demigod powerhouses, Karlos had the confidence to be completely unharmed. But if the demigods were above the level of 500, then that would not be possible anymore. And unfortunately for him, three demigods among the seven present here were above level 500.
Even while feeling the danger of the situation, Tylor got ready to battle. An insectoid armour crackling with lightning covered his body and a large black purple spear also appeared in his hand. Then with a ferocious smile, he did not wait for the demigods to attack him and instead initiated the attack himself.
The seven demigods also fought back immediately. Kizuna was present in this team and with the support of her domain, the other demigods felt extremely safe and stronger than their normal self. But even then, Tylor was not an easy opponent to defeat.
Even though he had used a short cut method of advancement and was slightly weaker than the base creature that he had used in this process, he was still extremely powerful. The Purple Thunder Beetle was a special insect that was comparable to a divine beast. So the strength that Tylor could utilise was still a lot.
But with seven demigods as his opponents, Tylor soon started to feel the fatigue. These seven people were also cooperating extremely well with one another so Tylor was given no chance of escaping. Just like that, after the fight continued for several hours, Tylor got stuck with a powerful attack and got severely injured.
Just as Tylor was about to use his last trump card in his desparation, one of the people fighting him called out to him and asked him to surrender. Tylor had not really done too much damage to the general population even during the last war. So the Lightning Phantom Demons were not hellbent on killing him. Instead of facing off against a cornered Tylor in order to kill him, they would be more than satisfied to keep him alive if he decided to surrender peacefully.
Tylor thought about this for just a few moments and then decided on surrendering. Even if he used his last trump card, he chance of escape would still be below 20 percent. He would at most be able to kill a few more demigods here. And even if he could successfully escape, after using his trump card, he would only be alive for a hundred years at most. So basically it would be a slow death.
That was why, Tylor decided to surrender. As for getting killed by them later on, Tylor was not worried. With the Thunder Goddess as the witness of his surrender, the Lightning Phantom Demons would never go against their words.
Just like this, the Thunder Destroyer Guild lost three of their important demigods.
