After knowing that players are also in this world other than us, I panicked slightly, but my emotions got suppressed by unknown facts. I don't know why it goes like that whenever I feel emotions rising inside me, but I think I have a clue about it, it seems it's connected to my race [Heteromorphic Undead (Death Tyrant.)]
In the game, the description of my class said that this type of undead doesn't have any desire as they conquered everything.
I don't know if I'm turning into one because I still have desire left in me.
'I'm not sure I need more evidence.'
*DING!*
[Layout successfully changed!]
Cutting off my thoughts is the notification from the system.
With that another step is finished.
I changed the layout of our base since we are underground now.
I put the highest floor to the bottom and the lowest floor to the top since the entrance of our base will be put in the highest floor. I also change the style of our base, making our base look more like a tomb. Since I'm the guild master, naturally I can do all of this.
The throne room is now in the lowest floor, going up is the 9th floor and so on.
"The world chat is locked huh, but there's a timer. It seems it's unlocked but we can't use it yet."
That's right, I looked through the world chat but we can't use it. I wonder why.
"Now then, let's go to the throne room, the members are waiting." I said to the two beside me.
"Alright." They replied.
We used the rings exclusive to the guild members to teleport to the throne room.
...
Serina and Tyr is waiting in the throne room while the minions of their guild is at the side kneeling.
"Hey, Tyr... Aren't they NPC? Why does it look like to me they are real. They look like a real living being..." Serina whispered so that only the two of them can hear it. She wondered.
She thought when they got transported, their minions would still be an NPC like they are in the game.
Like Diabolus, she also accepted that they got transported in another world. Signs are everywhere. They would look stupid to keep denying the reality before them. That also goes to the other members of the guild, all of them accepted what's happening to them. Humans adaptability is a scary thing.
When Tyr heard what Serina said, he just shrugged.
"I don't know, maybe something happened when we got transported." Tyr said. Although he said that, he felt uncomfortable with the eyes that's looking to them.
A moment later, three figures appeared at the throne room entrance.
It's Diabolus.
...
Walking in slow strides, only his footsteps can be heard echoing in the grandiose room.
With the flickering lights of the chandeliers, the shadow of the figure cast onto them is deep.
It's Diabolus. For the members, they are his friend, the guild master of their guild. But for their minions and guards, it's different.
They are their God. That's right, the look in the kneeling figures is of that respect and awe. Along with the other members, they are the one who created life for them. They are their creators. Only respect can be seen in the face of the kneeling minions and guards.
Arriving at the throne, Diabolus flapped his raven coat and sat down. With the other members standing beside him.
"Rise." Diabolus said.
The minions and the guards stand up. Looking at their creators, they are ethereal.
"There are change of plans. As we have been transported in an unknown location, we need much information as we can." Diabolus said.
"Guardians, set the floor danger level to the max. If anybody tries to enter kill them."
"Understood." Voices came from the crowd.
The guardians is the most powerful of the minions in the guild. All of them have been created to guard the base when the members is absent.
Each one of them is as strong as the members stat wise. They are still NPC after all, they can't do what the humans can.
"Members of The Pandemonium... starting now, we will go out and gather information we need. Since other players are here, we will need a disguise. I will discuss the plan later at the Council. All other minions here report to your area guardians!" Diabolus ordered.
"We will start our conquest."
...
At the 9th floor of Temple of Creation, in a certain room is 5 people discussing.
"I'm right, the NPC is all alive. What I ordered isn't programmed in them but they still understood and did it." I said to my guildmates.
When the system said that our minions have been synchronized, I think maybe it means they have been put into reality making them a real 'thing' and not just a data or something like that.
"Is it a good thing for us?" Serina asked.
"It's a good thing. Because now, our guilds power is doubled. If they are real, all of them will think and act like it. The problem is... if they can betray us."
That's right. Betrayal.
It's a common thing. That's why I tested them earlier. From the looks of it though, it's impossible for them to betray us.
"Don't worry, their loyalty is unshakeable." I assured Serina and the others.
"Now, we will go out in the world as we need information. The powers in this world, how advance, the people, etc. We don't know any of it." Julian's memories are not enough, he's just a puppet made to follow that council.
"First, we need a disguise. Think of a name and we'll decide what we will do." I said to them. They nodded in response.
"Where is Dracula? He's not here?" I asked.
"He's still interrogating the man." Tyr replied to me.
"...Alright. I think it's enough, call him here."
Not a moment later, a man emerged from the shadows. It's Dracula. His hands are full of blood.
"I apologize for being late. I seem to lost track of time there. Hehe." He said while he clean his hands.
"...Dracula, we will go out and gather information, what do you want to do?"
"Hmm, I think I'll stay here. If all of you will go out, we need atleast one of us defending our base. Don't worry about me." Dracula replied.
That's true... Dracula has the most capability when it comes to fighting enemies. I'll make him stay and defend our base in case someone or something attacks us.
"If that's what you want." I gave him permission.
"Oh, make a copy of what you learnt from the man. I'll read it later."
"Understood." Dracula left the room.
"Serina, Tyr, Hero, and Ant. We'll proceed now, follow me."
All of us left the Council and used our rings to go directly to the first floor of the headquarters.
