Chapter 136: B2: C36: A Man of Faith 1
While Zarian played a madman’s game of attrition warfare with a Divine World Boss, Gilbert walked into a heavy metal elevator chute. The soles of his boots thudded across a thick platform that was going to plunge deep under Ride-or-Die Village.
Hannah was there with him. She brought along three wagons filled with equipment and three softball size golems that were orbiting around her body.
Other than Gilbert’s armor and foldable shield and abilities, that was about it.
“Be safe, Gilbert, and My Lady Hannah,” Rhea Hemlock said from outside of the elevator chute.
Gilbert tipped his cowboy hat at the Hemlock, who was their main admin errand girl. Gilbert preferred the first name basis with the woman, though the relationship between Rhea and her direct boss was more strict and hierarchical.
Hannah hummed. “You know what to do.”
Rhea smiled and nodded gracefully. “Yes, my lady. Your will is my command.”
The chute doors closed. Purple lights illuminated the space. The elevator platform descended while making a metallic hum and some windy sounds. It was a chilly ride, too.
Gilbert let out a big sigh. It wasn’t his idea to go down there to where a destined son and a powerful false idol were duking it out. It was Hannah’s idea. Gilbert would rather work with Bianca and the guild members, who were staying top side.
