Solstice, Lycan and Kabrakan managed to catch up to the fleeing leader of the Followers of Apophis. They were a few hours away from the original position and it would take at least four hours to catch up to them given the speed that they traveled. The group was able to intercept the Followers of Apophis due to Lycan transforming into his full wolf form.
Sirius had to carry Kabrakan with him which is why he was not able to intercept the enemy. When Solstice and the others were able to stop the fleeing Followers of Apophis, Sirius needed to return back to his master as he cannot be separated this far from him or else the link between them will become unstable.
The only ones remaining to handle the Followers of Apophis were Solstice, Lycan and Kabrakan but they were enough against the five enemies. They were able to pin the Followers of Apophis down, but Solstice noticed that the other side was not attacking them at full power.
The Followers of Apophis would use spells as smokescreen or the power of their attacks to move ever so closely to the western port. Solstice immediately dyed the area in blood as she wanted to kill all of them in one swoop. She was about to kill every enemy when one of the most powerful players suddenly descended upon them.
Eldritch was able to block all of her deadly attacks that was about to kill the Followers of Apophis and the Vessel of Apophis. The Followers of Apophis sighed with relief as reinforcements have suddenly arrived. They were incredibly grateful for their master, the Distorted God Apophis, in alerting the Followers of the Dark Gods.
"Please have our utmost appreciations, Master Eldritch!" The leader of the Followers of Apophis stated as she now knows that the tides will turn in their favor.
Solstice, Lycan and Kabrakan thought that they would lose as Eldritch came with four other players. Eldritch was even able to bypass some of Kabrakan's defenses which is very solid even against boss monsters. Eldritch prepared a powerful spell called Dark God's Dominance which summoned an eye of an unknown dark god to peer into the mortal realm.
All beings that the eye sees would then be stunned or rooted in place with their stats getting lowered. Solstice, Lycan, and Kabrakan were stunned as Eldritch prepared a powerful spell called Star Burst. They were about to be killed when Frey suddenly appeared and cut the spell effects of the Dark God's Dominance spell.
"Eldritch!" Frey stated as she glared at him.
"Frey." Eldritch muttered as some bit of hatred suddenly rose from his mind. He still remembers how Frey hunted him down like some prey to be slaughtered.
After being released, Solstice immediately informed Adrian of what was happening. She knew that they cannot defeat ten enemies with just the four of them. Even if Frey is one of the high rankers, the other side also has Eldritch.

"It seems that having immunity to my poison has made you think too much of your standing in the world, demon!" Grandmaster Lason stated as he is seriously offended.
He does not want to admit it but the bugs that he was handling were much more troublesome compared to the ones that the Witch of Flesh and Carnage Edora were fighting. The most troublesome ones were the Champion and Envoy of the Twin Gods as they have a synergistic effect when they are together.
"You did not trap us here little demon, you are trapped here with us." The Witch of Flesh and Carnage Edora stated as she licked her sharp bladed claws.
"I thought demons were supposed to be strong on their own, but a Demon Summoner is a first for me. Release all of your summons to make this at least fun for us." Grandmaster Lason stated as he still has all his elemental golems.
"I know that I might not be able to defeat both of you even with all of my soulbounds out but that is for later. I will have to rely on myself first to see the limits of my own strength. Be glad because this is the first time that I am showing this form to the world. The fact that both of you will be able to witness it should be a proud moment for both of you." Adrian stated but he was incredibly scared inside.
Adrian is actually faking his bravado because he knows that that is all he has. The two demigods might be weakened as they used their domains but that does not change the fact that they are still demigods. Adrian is betting everything on the skill that Paradox has received when it evolved.
"Do not be afraid, master. I have calculated that this skill will the most optimal way of handling the both of them. All hidden conditions for the usage of the skill have been completed. The master will not receive backlash even if he uses it now." Paradox stated as the icon for the Chaos Pierrot skill is glowing.
Adrian could actually use this skill as long as he has more than half his mana, but Paradox actually told him that he would suffer backlash if he does not fulfill the hidden conditions. The hidden conditions of this skill were that both his domains should not be in cooldown. Even his Netheros True Form or Aetheros True Form should not be in cooldown as well.
Paradox informed him that if these hidden conditions are cleared then he would be able to use the skill without any sort of damage to his core or body. Adrian has yet to use the skills that satisfies the hidden condition which is why he is confident that he can still summon his soulbounds after using the Chaos Pierrot skill.
"All bravado. Do it now while we are waiting for you. We do not want any rumors saying that we defeated the Champion of the Twin Gods at his weakest. Use your true forms that we have been told." The Witch of Flesh and Carnage Edora stated.
