Chapter 1070
The air in Joy Co. Ltd.’s conference room was solemn and filled with tension.
Joy Co. Ltd. had expected a slim chance of victory for humanity. Even if they won, the company expected mankind to suffer substantial damage. However, humanity won, and the damage that they suffered was barely 20% of what they had initially calculated.
Regardless, the victory was welcome. After all, the damage to the NPCs was much lower than they expected. There was also the fact that the number of players did not decrease.
President Kang Taehoon declared, “We will discard all subsequent planned quests related to this matter, including the episode: ‘Surviving Through the Ruined Athenae.’”
Their months of hard work went down the drain in just an instant. Nevertheless, none of them felt any regret or disappointment. The only problem was that things were unpredictable for them now.
Department Head Kim Dae-Il asked, “Currently, the Story Team is reporting that the seats of the Eight Pillars are empty, right?”
“That’s right. Kronad has already been deprived of his qualifications. His name remains on the list of the Eight Pillars, but he is no longer a part of them,” Team Leader Park replied, a serious look on his face. “That’s not all. The same is true for Evil God Obren. He is no longer the Eight Pillars’ Evil God Obren. He is now an Absolute God, and the Guardian God of the Beyond the Heavens Empire.”
Kang Taehoon groaned. “And Helenia’s seat has also become vacant…”
There were at least three empty seats among the Eight Pillars. Of course, it was more than enough for the remaining members of the Eight Pillars to remain as mythical beings. The problem was Helenia died. And even if Ali, who was due to succeed in her role as the Immortal Sorcerer, he could not become one of the Eight Pillars.
