Chapter 893: Fear (2/2)
They might try to give him some signals that to try to fish him out.
And as expected, the whole Kala tribe is on high alert, they are patrolling the whole city with all their members.
At first they only had Astral Plane cultivators, but now they also have their Consummates patrol the whole city.
The family young masters who never had to do menial things are patrolling so the commoners could be safe.
But Sam didn't make a move, putting these people to sleep will only make the people afraid, not the main tribe, in fact they could be feeling very safe right now as Sam didn't attack the tribe with this sleeping gas.
But he is sure that something else is going to happen that could make the Kala tribe afraid.
That day nothing else happened and the citizens started waking up one after another and fell into panic. Sleeping for a whole day without even knowing is a terrifying thought to have after all.
There is no way, they could just accept it and let go of the thought.
After all the citizens woke up and a curfew was implemented to keep them inside the houses safely, the tribe head held another meeting.
”What are the updates? Any traces found?”
He asked in a frustrated tone. He is having a headache since the day before.
”We found the tunnels tracing towards one large hole half a mile away from the city. They all started from the same hole. These metal bugs dug the tunnels themselves and entered the city. But from there, the trial went cold. There are no traces at all.”
”This is going to be a problem. The citizens are going to be in a panic and if whoever that is doing this try to take advantage of that, then we would be having some more trouble. The rest of the tribes within the realm are looking at us like hawks.
We cannot risk too much damage.
Now, take those scraps of those bugs and take them to that captive. Try to see if he could recognize them.
We didn't see puppets like this at all, they are certainly not common and I suspect that Sam must be the one who used them. Confirm it with him first and we can think of what to do later.”
The young head took the bug scraps with him and left the room immediately.
After he left, the rest of members started discussing what to do next and at this exact moment, an Old man who is an Astral Plane cultivator, fainted onto the table all of a sudden and his face started turning pale.
He started palpitating and his whole body is covered in cold sweat.
”Call the healer, now.”
When the healer came and saw the body, the Old man is already dead. So, he couldn't find anything wrong with the body.
The herbal mix that was injected into the body that increases the excitement and vitality is not something that could be traced easily and it is not exactly a poisonous thing for the healer to suspect.
As for the undead blood inside the bodies, it would have grown in vitality by a lot, but since the person is dead, then the blood wouldn't be able to survive.
It is similar to a virus in many ways and after the host dies, the virus also dies.
And the healer thought that the vitality in the blood that is slowly dissipating is actually a common occurrence.
After a person died, the vitality slowly leaves away and since the person is an Astral Plane cultivator it is even more common. So, healer kept on checking again and again to see if he could find what happened to him.
But he couldn't after a while, because another person also fainted at that moment.
The second step; the fear of the unknown finally started gripping their hearts even without them knowing.
