Chapter 180: Council Disputes and Intel from the Apocalyptic Sect

Within the Sky Realm, tensions and debates intensified, nearing the point of rolling up sleeves and engaging in physical altercations. Just then, Ougust, who had been silent all along, interjected.

"Everyone, please quiet down a bit! We should focus on how to handle the current crisis rather than shifting blame and squabbling," Ougust said, his tone slow and plain but carrying a certain intimidating power. Amidst the clamor, the previously boisterous meeting room fell silent, all eyes on this acting chairman.

However, there were dissenting voices, mocking and discontent. "It seems our acting chairman has thought of foolproof strategies..."

Ougust didn't respond but turned to Rorl, saying, "Why don't you speak instead!"nove(l)bi(n.)com

Rorl nodded, solemnly passing around a stack of parchment.

"This is recent intelligence from the security team regarding the Apocalyptic Sect. Have a look," he suggested.

The assembly of lawmakers took the parchments, swiftly scanning through them. Lynn also grabbed a copy.

Aside from recording the names and backgrounds of some Apocalyptic Sect members, the pages held many peculiar theories about magic.

What caught Lynn's eye was the depiction of elements. The wizards of the Apocalyptic Sect seemed to have some understanding of the microcosm. However, their path of research deviated. They believed all elements might be part of a collective consciousness, naming this consciousness the Spirit of Elements.

The wizards' relentless and uncontrolled manipulation of elements would lead orderly elements into chaos, an irreversible process and the reason for the impending apocalypse.

"Absurd!" Raphael shook his head, unable to withhold his rebuttal after merely skimming the first part.

Elemental studies were fundamental to almost every wizard. Convincing them to abandon centuries of research and instead pray to some ambiguous Spirit of Elements seemed like sheer madness!

"Don't you find these magical theories somewhat familiar?" Ougust unexpectedly asked.

The faces of the councilors changed collectively. When the Apocalyptic Sect initially proposed the concept of the Spirit of Elements, some had realized it might stem from the legendary wizard Altok's elemental theories.

Delaying this matter might spark greater chaos. Although the council lacked legendary wizards, it housed a considerable number of powerful ones.

While some leaders of the academic factions returned to their territories after the seminar, seven prominent wizards stayed behind. They were capable of handling most situations, even cooperating against a legendary wizard if needed.

Discussions on the operation details persisted until 10 pm, with the worried-looking councilors leaving the chamber.

After organizing the distributed documents, Rorl breathed a sigh of relief. As one of Ougust's assistants, he had been incredibly busy these days, sometimes even skipping meals.

Fortunately, these hectic days were nearing an end. Once they dealt with these misguided Apocalyptic Sect members, he'd have a few leisurely days. And perhaps, Teacher Ougust would firmly secure his position as acting chairman thanks to their achievements.

Who knows, they might even earn a Morning Star Medal for this feat...

Lost in these thoughts, Rorl gathered his papers to leave but was halted midway by Lynn.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Rorl. I have something important to discuss with you alone," Lynn requested.
