I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

On their way to the teleportation array, someone blocked Xue Feibai and the others' path.

After seeing this from above, Anno ordered Adelaide to land.

"Monissa, what are you doing here?"

Anno looked at Monissa in her green dress and asked疑惑地问道, "Didn't you leave the royal city a while ago?"

When Anno's main body went to Xuelong City, his shadow left in the royal city still maintained contact with Menglisa.

But a few days ago, Meng Lisa said she was leaving the royal city for a while, and then she disappeared.

Monissa glanced at Xue Feibai and the others, then pulled Anor aside.

Upon seeing this scene, Lü Yan immediately frowned.

"Who is that woman?"

Seeing that Lü Yan looked unhappy, Liu Rongrong turned to Steinbeck and asked.

However, Steinbeck was also unaware of the relationship between Anno and Monissa.

On the other side, Monissa led Anno aside and said solemnly, "There are some problems in the God Realm right now, I need to go back there!"

Upon hearing this, Anuo immediately asked, "What happened?"

"A war of gods might be about to break out!"

Monissa explained, "Our previous actions in the Dwarf Kingdom angered Hephaestus, the god of fire and forging."

He has already discovered the identities of Leopold and others.

They are currently conducting a large-scale search for this person in the realm of gods.

The gods generally do not interfere with the development of Ungomulos.

If a god wants to legitimately develop his faith in Ungomulos, the other gods will not stop him.

But if it is an evil god, then the gods of the Order faction will inevitably intervene.

Hephaestus came to Angomulus at the call of his followers.

As a result, his body was destroyed by the Demon King!

Hephaestus was actually mentally prepared to be killed by the God Hunter.

That is why the gods are not very willing to come to the earth.

The problem is that Leopold and his group not only did not restrain themselves, but also descended in their true forms afterward, causing a great crisis to the dwarf kingdom.

As a mid-level god, Hephaestus naturally wouldn't allow a group of lower-level gods to run rampant in his territory.

So he has been searching in the realm of gods for the group of gods who came to the earth in the first place.

"Because of the Dragon Scorpion God, more and more gods have come down to investigate the truth of the matter."

Unbeknownst to you, the two sides' speedsters have already engaged in more than a dozen battles.

With so many Swiftmen around, the information becomes quite chaotic.

Hephaestus learned of Leopold's specific identity in the realm of the gods from someone, though he didn't know who it was from.

The atmosphere in the divine realm is very tense right now.

If nothing unexpected happens, we'll probably have to fight.

I'm also a party involved, so I need to go back to the divine realm to deal with this matter.

This body will remain with you for now, under your command.

A peak sixth-tier snake-man should be of some use to you.

Anno remained silent for a while, digesting the information Monissa had provided.

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out.

Anno wanted to dodge, but he remained standing in place.

Monissa cupped Anno's face in her hands, looked up at him quietly for a while, and said with tenderness, "There are many Swift Walkers in the land now. If you encounter a high-level Swift Walker, you must be careful."

Leopold and his companions have returned to the realm of the gods, but they are certainly still keeping an eye on your situation.

So don't do anything too flashy, and keep a low profile!

"After I get back, I'll find a way to avoid this mess, and then I'll come back to find you!"

As Anno had predicted, the realm of gods was not entirely harmonious.

In any place, strength speaks for itself.

Anno didn't know how big the gap was between lower-level gods and middle-level gods, but he still hoped that Monissa could survive.

"Be careful too, I'll be waiting for you to come back!"

Hearing Anno's words, Monissa smiled, her eyes filled with love.

"I don't know why, but hearing you say that made me very happy!"

Monissa threw herself into Anno's arms, looked up at him, licked her lips, and said, "I really like you. If this body were my original self, I definitely wouldn't be able to resist asking you for a kiss!"

Before Anno could react, Monissa pushed him away, turned her back, and said, "I have prepared the ritual materials, but you will need to wait for a while."

After saying that, Monissa waved her hand, and a cloud of green mist appeared around her, enveloping her.

Then she took out a pile of materials from her storage ring and began preparing for the ritual on the ground.

Once the ritual preparations were complete, Monissa stood in the center of the magic circle, smiling and waving at Anno.

boom!

A green light shot into the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the strange phenomenon disappeared again.

The green mist dissipated, and the stunning beauty within the magic circle had vanished.

Instead, a female snake-person was introduced.

The upper body is in the form of a human female.

But from the navel down, it turns into a thick snake tail.

The upper body, particularly the chest area, is covered with light blue scales.

Its face is also covered with a lot of scales, which ruins the overall aesthetic appeal.

After opening her eyes, the snake woman crawled to Anno's side, bowed respectfully, and said, "My name is Athena. By order of Lady Monissa, I serve Lady Anno as my master."

Anno glanced at the ritual formation.

After the ritual was activated, all the materials in the array turned to ashes, and there was no need to retrieve them for Monissa.

Anno glanced at Athena's stats and said, "You can stay with me for now!"

Athena was able to become the body of a Swiftwalker, so her strength was naturally not weak among those of the same level.

According to Athena, she has mastered seven Tier 6 skills!

Anno is already at the seventh rank, but he hasn't mastered many sixth-rank skills.

However, Athena is not a [Guardian] and has no special abilities.

After bringing Athena back to the group, Anno pointed to Athena and explained to Xue Feibai and the others, "This is Athena. She will be traveling with us from now on."

Xue Feibai looked at the respectful Athena with a puzzled expression.

Wasn't she a beautiful woman just now? How did she turn into a snake-woman?

However, since Anno did not explain, no one asked any further questions.

Steinbeck dared not ask any more questions.

Then, led by Anno, the team set off again.

After marching for some time, the group arrived at the forest where Anno had met Sassi.

After finding the teleportation array, Anno sacrificed the corresponding soul and chose to be teleported to the Emergency Forest.

......

The town of Grür.

With the increase in population—people from several villages have merged here—the area now has a population of over ten thousand.

It has already grown to the size of a small town.

Now, Gruul has once again become a frontline stronghold.

Adventurers who had retreated from the vicinity of the Aiur Mountains gathered here, along with the first wave of adventurers and troops who had come from Valcalm, numbering in the thousands.

Although the first wave of troops sent by the sea creatures was only for reconnaissance and consisted of few mid-level soldiers, and their combat strength decreased after landing, they should still not be underestimated.

By evening, a battle had broken out between the two sides, resulting in casualties on both sides.

As night fell, the sea creatures launched a night attack.

In this night raid, dozens of mid-level members of the first wave of the sea creatures participated in the battle.

In a short time, this caused great losses to the defensive forces of the town of Gruel.

When Anno led his men out of the forest and arrived at the battlefield, the two sides were already engaged in fierce fighting!

"[Grand Illumination]!"

Liu Rongrong and Ning Wen raised their staffs and simultaneously launched a ball of light.

After the ball of light flew into the air, it emitted a dazzling light.

Within a radius of 100 meters in diameter from the two spheres of light, the area instantly became as bright as day.

"Roar~!"

Adelaide roared, lowered her flight altitude, and used dragon fire to divide the battlefield, separating the two sides that were locked in a fierce battle.

After the two sides dispersed, Anno glanced at the sea creature camp and frowned, saying, "Why are they all this kind of trash?"
