Chapter 350: Old One Escapes (2/2)

The thunder god temple head looked at him for a second and said.

”Tell me, honestly what type of drug did you use? How can we just forget about a particular person in a particular space and in a particular period of time?”

Old one listened to it all and the frown on his face finally relaxed, his lips curled up as his serious face turned into a smirk.

”Since you already knew who I am, do you think I would give you any more info?”

The rest of the heads are all surprised. He continued casually.

”I didn't expect your laziness is the reason for me get caught. Really? You actually calculated for the workload in such a simple thing? You have nothing to do but give energy to the formation and you even calculated effort for that too and you know what the worst part is me getting caught for a single question. Damn it, I am such a fool in believing you as soon as you said such a stupid thing.

Why would anyone dare to seal their own Space gate at a moment like this, when the enemy can attack any of us at any moment.

You really got me good there, Old Thunder.”

As the rest of them are slowly surrounding him, Old One continued.

”I didn't think that my plan would be seen through in such a stupid way, but if you really want to know how I made a fool out of all of you, it is simple, it is the weird habit of Old three, who wouldn't sit for a meeting unless he has incense on the table.

He couldn't stand the smell of others and he has specially made incense sticks and they happened to be made by the Pharmaceutical tower.”

When everyone looked at the Incense for a second which is almost about to go out, they then realized that something is not wrong, why would all of them look at the incense when that guy pointed out at such a tense situation?”

As they are trying to shake their heads to get some sense, the Old one laughed and said.

”And do you all know, why I am talking so much so that I could buy some time for the Incense to get to your head and now that it seemed to have completely influence on you, goodbye.”

With that, he turned tail and run. The remaining five felt like they are in a daze, their bodies are not feeling comfortable and they are feeling as if they are being stuck to the ground.

”It seems to be some type of high-level Hallucinogen. I knew this guy loved to make these things when he was young but never thought he would become so good at them.”

Old three who is the Artisan association head, spoke through bitter struggle as he tried to move his body.

They noticed that they can use their spiritual energy only after two minutes. In fact, they are getting a sense of a situation and that is they are feeling struck only because of the hallucinogen. But they are only feeling struck, only limbs are not working, their spiritual energy and everything else is good to go.

Soon, the auras raged in a concentrated spot of this Central Continent, and the rest of the people who are still waiting for the Inspection outside the meeting Space are feeling a little uncomfortable.

Another two minutes later, they are free.

They felt extremely stupid when he thought about how they fell for that plan.

Most importantly, they don't know how that medicine works and if they can control themselves if they are trapped in that again.

Old two and Old three left the place and chased in the way Old one left and are trying to see if they can still catch up to him.

But when they reached the Space gate of the Pharmaceutical Association, that Space gate was sealed from the other side and they came back in an extremely dejected fashion.

Meanwhile, they finished the Inspection of the rest and decided to prepare for the war.

Since they know their common enemy and their possible allies who are present in the Space gate association and the Seer tower, they are finally ready to take some serious action.

The first thing they did is send the people who are clear back to their posts and then the heads went to Formation Association.

The headquarters which was located at the edge of the central continent is the nearest to the Pharmaceutical tower and by the time they reached the place, all they saw is the whole tower in a wreck and many dead bodies.

When they checked the remains, they noticed that almost all the members of the tower are either dead or injured and there are no reserves of ingredients that should be present. The Garden was completely wiped clean and Old one seemed to have left the place right after looting it as soon as he arrived.

Now that they don't know where their enemy is hidden, there is no way for them to deal with him head-on, the only option is war.
