Omega Summoner

Chapter 387 - Starting The Capture Operation

"Is there anything else that you have not told us about the faceless ones? Remember clearly as we cannot enter blindly." Solstice asked.

"They can shapeshift, hive mind, altar destruction equals all dead, and what else? Oh! I think that they cannot operate too far from their altar but that is just a guess." Adrian stated.

"Why do you say so?" Lycan asked.

"Their altar is basically their heart and they die when it is destroyed. It only makes sense that they must protect it at all cost. Also, I guess that they also need to feed their altar." Adrian stated.

"Feed their altar? How can they feed an inanimate object?" Solstice asked as it is no longer in the realm of logic.

"I read on their description that faceless ones are more like a part of the dark god that they worship but they also act as servants. They need some form of autonomy in order to do tasks after all." Adrian replied.

"I guess it makes sense that they perish once you destroyed the altar as it is their connection to their god. The altar basically acts like a cell tower and the faceless ones are the phones. No connection means no will to carry out what is needed." Solstice stated as she correlated faceless ones with a phone.

"We could also say that their dark god acts as a puppeteer and the faceless ones as the puppets." Adrian surmised.

"So, what do we need to do then if we want to capture the werewolves that they recruited." Lycan asked as he is more muscle than brain.

"One option would be to show them the real forms of the faceless ones but that would entitle us finding an item that could reveal the true form of a being." Solstice stated.

"The other option would be to try and capture every group that is out for training. That would be much easier in the beginning but harder as time passes by. They would likely group up when we managed to snatch three or four groups depending on the composition of that group." Adrian stated.

"We should go to Moonshine Village then so that we can check if there are still remnants there." Lycan suggested and everyone agreed.

The leader of the Shadow Wolves then appeared beside Lycan as Adrian is preparing the spell. The three almost forgot about them because they are too good at their job. Mostly, they are too focused in their discussion that they forgot they have helpers.

"Call me Shado, young master. It seems that you are departing to Moonshine Village. We wish to join you there in travel." Shado stated as she bowed.

"If we are going as a group of eight then I need to use Dimensional Teleportation as I would get burnt out if I used the regular Mass Teleportation." Adrian stated as he proceeded to create a portal by ripping the fabric of space.

"After you!" Adrian gestured and they warily entered the portal.

Adrian used Glamour on himself as he needed to look human. He entered the portal and just like that his vision changed from that of a mansion to a forest clearing. 

"I have got to say that your teleportation thingy is extremely useful. It beats travelling by carriage for days." Lycan commented and the Shadow Wolves melded into the background once more.

"So, any idea what to do now?" Adrian asked as they needed to find traces of the werewolves.

"You should go by air and I will release my familiars." Solstice told Adrian as she cut up her palm once more and made small red bats using her blood.

"What will I do then?" Lycan asked.

"You will be the one to intercept them once we find them of course. Apply that form changing magic to Lycan, dear brother. We will use the chat to alert of their positions so always keep an eye on it." Solstice stated as she turned towards the village.

"Fine. The magic does not erase your scent though and only fool the eyes of others." Adrian answered and cast glamour on Lycan to change his face and hair color.

"Greater Summon: Sirius. Greater Summon: Kanlaon." Adrian casted as he summoned two of his soulbounds.

"Sirius, blend into Lycan's shadow and assist him in catching our prey." Adrian commanded and Sirius did as he is told.

Adrian then rode Kanlaon to the air and started their search. Solstice searched the village while Lycan searched the nearby forests. They searched for the werewolves for hours only to find nothing. They regrouped back to the location that they arrived from.

"Find anything?" Adrian asked.

"I found out that the people were not hunting out in the forest for a few days because of the festival." Solstice stated.

"We searched the forest and there were traces of battle from a day ago. The campfire was just freshly extinguished. If they were in this location, then we are already too late. They have already moved on to the next village." Lycan stated.

"What are the nearby villages to Moonshine Village then?" Adrian asked.

"The next two villages would be five days of travel from here if they go by carriage. If they are using their own speed, then they could lessen that to three days." Lycan stated as he has a full map of the territories near Arkadia.

"I will head to the other village with two of the Shadow Wolves and you two will head to the other one with three of them." Adrian suggested.

"We shall do that then. If the other sees their group, we must send a whisper. You cannot take them down on your own." Solstice ordered.

"If you cannot take down the betas then just abduct the young werewolves while retreating. I am pretty sure that your group can do that." Adrian stated as he gestured two of the Shadow Wolves to ride Kanlaon as they will be the former's guide.
