Chapter 1363: Venom Gland of Apophis

Har, the vessel of Horus, cannot maintain his battle form as well and started falling to the ground. Frey abandoned attacking the Shadow of Apophis and summoned her Pegasus to save Har. She did not easily save him as the God Shesmu suddenly appeared next to them and wanted to kill them both.

Frey managed to parry the attack of the God Shesmu, but they were sent spiraling down due to her not defending properly. Before the two of them plunged to the ground, a rose suddenly bloomed to catch them safely.

"Are you fine?" The Guild Leader of the Briar Rose guild asked Frey.

"I am fine. I managed to save the vessel of Horus but the seal on the fragment has been broken." Frey stated as she looked at the spire where the Venom Gland of Apophis is located.

Ever since Har fainted, the seal for the Venom Gland of Apophis suddenly became weaker than it already was. The Shadow of Apophis did not care to eat the Vessel of Horus and immediately coiled back into the spire and bashed its body on the seal. A powerful burst of energy is felt on top of the spire as the people saw images of two serpentine creatures.

The two serpentine creatures are the manifestations of the fragments of Apophis. The Shadow of Apophis manifested as a black scaled serpent while the Venom Gland of Apophis manifested as a dark purple serpent. The players thought that the two would then attack all of the people in surroundings, but they started attacking each other.

The Venom Gland of Apophis became enraged as it suddenly released a poisonous gas that trickled down to the ground as poisonous smoke is heavy in nature. The players below the spire ran away when they saw some guards fall down on the ground from inhaling the fumes. All of them started the evacuation as they knew that they will not be able to defeat the Shadow of Apophis now.

The Venom Gland of Apophis and the Shadow of Apophis started going at each other's throat as the former is enraged. The Shadow of Apophis already expected this to happen because it can feel the emotion of its body part. All the Venom Gland of Apophis had was rage as it was trapped for a long time with its poison being extracted by the Temple of Horus to create powerful antidotes.

The Temple of Horus produces a powerful antidote that is said to be a cure all for poisons that are legendary ranked and below. They harvested the venom from the fragment to create a powerful force o good which the Venom Gland of Apophis does not appreciate. It did not like the feeling of being a caged animal being harvested for the thing it can create.

When the Venom Gland of Apophis knew that the seal became weaker, it already started to fully form its metaphysical body and filled its consciousness with rage. It planned to wreak havoc on the entire city without remorse. It even made sure to shut down its thinking capacity so that all it will do is relentless damage.

The Venom Gland of Apophis did not know that it was actually battling a part of itself. It only went to war with the being that was in front of it. Naturally, the Venom Gland of Apophis would not regain its sanity immediately which is why the Shadow of Apophis resorted to devouring its other part while it is in rampage.

The Shadow of Apophis liked this as well because the Venom Gland of Apophis is releasing powerful energy that it needs to eat. The battle between the two serpents would have been longer if the Shadow of Apophis has not absorbed the Fang of Apophis. The Shadow of Apophis naturally became the winner of the match between the powerful titanic serpents.

The image of the Shadow of Apophis swallowing the Venom Gland of Apophis will forever be etched into the minds of the people that were there. When the Shadow of Apophis swallowed the Venom Gland of Apophis, it did not turn to look at the ones escaping because it needs to fully absorb the energy of its counterpart.

[The Shadow of Apophis has devoured the Venom Gland of Apophis.]

[It will now enter a hibernation period of five days.]

[Monsters that are controlled by the Shadow of Apophis will still attack the temples every night.]

[The Shadow of Apophis empowered the monsters under its control even more.]

The Shadow of Apophis immediately went into a deep sleep and the Temple of Shesmu made sure to protect the sleeping serpent. Lebou did not go after the vessel of Horus or Frey as he retreated to protect the sleeping serpent from any attackers. Even the monsters that were there stopped attacking the players and retreated close to the Shadow of Apophis.

The players knew that they cannot easily break through which is why they also retreated. All of them retreated back t o the desert while some of them went back to the Temple of Bastet. Frey and the Briar Rose guild actually accompanied the remaining members of the Temple of Horus to the Temple of Bastet upon the golden warriors of Horus' request.

When Frey and the Briar Rose guild arrived at the Temple of Bastet, they saw that the players were all exhausted as they were also battling hordes of monsters throughout the night. The only upside is that the players gained lots of experience points and the people could eat a lot of meat. Food is another thing that is difficult to procure in the western continent, but a monster horde is basically them thinking that food is charging at their doorstep.

Frey delivered the High Priest Har to the inner area of the Temple of Bastet and met with the High Priestess Estet. The High Priestess Estet was the one that tended to the High Priest Har's wounds as she needs to make him recover quickly. Frey was thanked by the golden warriors and is told that she would be rewarded once the High Priest Har wakes up.

Frey said that she did not need to be rewarded but the golden warriors of Horus insisted which is why she agreed as she did not want to continuously decline their offer. She was exiting the temple to meet back with her friends when she noticed a familiar presence pass by her. She wanted to look back to check who that was but her friend called out to her which delayed her head turn.

Adrian wanted to learn of the state of the Shadow of Apophis which is why he immediately went to the Temple of Bastet once the night was over. He arrived and saw the tiredness of all the people in the city below the Temple of Bastet. He is greeted by the golden warriors of Bastet and was immediately led to the inner sanctum of the temple upon his request.

Adrian passed by the entrance of the Temple of Bastet and felt like he passed by someone familiar. He looked back to see if he knew that person, but he cannot determine her identity just by looking at her back. He did feel that they knew each other but he was called to make his visit quick as the elder priests were very busy.

Adrian went to the room where a very good-looking man is being treated by the High Priestess Estet herself along with other priests of Bastet. Adrian asked who he was, and they replied that he was the Vessel of Horus. They also informed him that the fragment that their temple guarded has been taken by the Shadow of Apophis.

"Does this mean that the Shadow of Apophis is now heading to a new temple?" Adrian asked.

"No, the Shadow of Apophis immediately fell to slumber after its battle and devouring of another fragment. The Temple of Shesmu attacked us when we were preparing to combat the serpent. If not for them then we would have been able to repel the Shadow of Apophis." One of the golden warriors of Horus stated as they were informed that Adrian was the Champion of Life and Death.

Adrian was shocked about the news that the Venom Gland of Apophis materialized a body. He suddenly felt chills as the other fragments could have done so as well even if they were sealed. It also means that they might battle another fragment if it is unsealed. He already knew the appearance of the Temple of Shesmu due to the players.

"I am healing him, but it seems that his body is rejecting some of it. If this continues to happen, then it would take two weeks for him to be completely healed." The High Priestess Estet stated as there is a foreign energy inside the High Priest Har that prevents his wounds from closing.

"His body is filled with miasma. It might be due to the fact that he was in battle with the Shadow of Apophis." Adrian stated.
