1746 Cube
The next day after the meetings are held.
All of Sam’s students left desolate at the break of dawn. They used their special privilege as Sam’s students to leave the place through the space gates.
By the time Watt, Jack and the Philip realized that they are gone, they already crossed three realms. The trio didn’t get an accurate idea of where they are going, they have to wait and see where the next check point is and estimate where they are going.
“Do you think they are going after the Olympus organizations?” Watt speculated.
“What else could they be doing? They must have understood that we will restrict their activities in the war. So, they just took the initiative in it.”
“Are we letting them leave like this?”
“Well, someone is following them. So, we don’t have to worry too much.”
Philip said as he looked at the log data of the space gates.
“Who is after them?”
…..
“Who else? Sirona. She must have noticed their movements better than us. She has a log exactly one hour later than that of the students. She is at every space gate that they are travelling through.
She has a better grasp of these students than us anyway, I think we can leave them to her. We can proceed with the rest of the plans as we initially thought.”
“Oh boy, I hope these kids don’t do anything stupid. Handling her is a nightmare.”
“Why? Did I miss something here? I think I don’t know what you are talking about.” Jack said in a confused tone.
“The thing is when Sam first left on his trips after taking in the students, he put her incharge of their studies.
She kind of took the role of their guardian. They are shit scared of her for some reason. She never really did anything to hurt them. She didn’t even scold them once as far as I know, but she really scares the crap out of them. I don’t think kids have been that nervous when they first met Sam.”
Philip said as he looked at the crystal tab for more information.
Jack is surprised.
“How come I didn’t know anything about it? I am spending time with those kids as much as both of you guys. How come you know this extra information?”
“I don’t know it. I only know that she takes care of some of their lessons, but I don’t know the kids are scared of her.”
Watt said casually.
“Well I know it. But she is very protective of them. Since she can hold herself on her own, we don’t need to worry too much about the kids.
Rather we can proceed with our plan. The first target of them all. The organizations that we classified as the Nodal Organizations.
Shall we split up and do all three of them at the same time or shall we just on work on each of them together.”
Philip asked as he took out a cigar. The other two looked at him with confused expressions.
“What is that?”
“It is something you smoke. It is made by one of the kids in Pharmacy department.”
He spoke and put it in his mouth before lighting it up.
“This made with a lot of extremely high quality processed herbs of different elemental energies. Mine has fire and metal of course.
When you smoke it up like this, you get absorb the herbs’ qualities into your lungs where it interacts with the oxygen that is supplied to the rest of your body through the blood. Long term use of it helps with the fusion and affinity of elements.
There is a different set for every element and level of cultivation.
Yours are also ready and the design department even made a tool that helps you with lighting it up. You should really check them out. I love them.”
“Really, they made some for us? Where are they?” Watt immediately took out his communication device to check up on them.
Jack just looked at their plans and said.
“Okay, we are going to do the first few things together. Then we will split up. It will give them some impact and it will also be a bit more fun for us.”
After discussing a few more things, they immediately made a move. The trio took a few of Dragon Hawk members as well as some people who can manage the administration and operations from Desolate to their first target.
They arrived on a planet with a branch of Dusk already there. In fact, their first target is one of the rivals that Dusk organization is completely crushing for a while.
This organization operates a bunch of academies on the planet and their strongest person is only at Late Stage of Astral Plane Transcendence. It is not a big competition for them. They could easily destroy them.
But the thing is the trio decided to do something more.
Their target is one of the organizations that has a lot of subisidies and every one of them is actually an organization under Olympus. They pray to the gods of Olympus and the trio decided to destroy the faith.
Their end goal is not just to destroy organizations under Olympus, rather destroy the faith of the people under the Olympus completely. Not only does this reduce the faith energy these gods are gaining, there will also be an example set so that new followers don’t join in. The faith energy wouldn’t increase or recover anymore.
The trio didn’t even care much and barged into the city. At the centre of the city right before the headquarters of this organization, all three of them stood back to back.
Three young men looking relaxed as they could as they lit their cigars up.
“I really like this lighter. I think the flame is hot enough to cut through a high grade metal. Even the metals that we use for weapons for Astral Plane cultivators.”
Watt said as he played with the lighter in his hand. The flame is produced by a liquid energy capsule inside. The design is really exquisite.
“I gotta say, these cigars are really good. I can feel the wind elemental energy in my lungs.”
As they are speaking, they already gathered the attention of a bunch of people.
Looking at them, Philip decided to start. He gathered his spiritual energy in his throat and started screaming on top of his lungs.
“People of the City and the loyal followers of Dark Lightning Organization. We three that you see here are from Dusk organization and we recently had a bone to pick with the gods that you guys worship. The Gods of Olympus and particularly Zeus the one who you devout yourself so much.
And your devotion kind of gives those gods the power they have, so you guys are the reason for some of our troubles. We have to deal with you guys if we want to deal with those gods. Think of yourself as collateral damage if you will.
So, I want you guys to get rid of that faith you have for them.
Of course we are going to help you with that.
In the next few days, the city and the surroundings of the city approximately to a radius of 250 miles will be stuck with a famine.
I don’t want to get into too many details. But all I can tell you is you can pray to your gods all you want, but they will not come. In fact, they wouldn’t even care that you are living or dying or how much you are suffering.
We prefer to not take any of your lives. But if it comes to this, we won’t really care. So, I apologize for your suffering.
You can beg the Dark lightning organization, but they won’t be able to help you. Because we are going to destroy any efforts they make.
And if you want to take refuge you can come and meet us in the south. You will come across the Dusk organization and you can register there.
We will provide refuge for you and let you live a safe life that is on par with your current life if it is not the better.”
As Philip went on and on, Jack took out the sword and swung it at someone who is coming at them.
The sword stuck through the man that came at them. Sliced him in the half. The surrounding people who already gathered around the three them for a long time were stunned beyond belief. Because they just saw a person who they knew to be one of the strongest people to die in just one strike with no resistance whatsoever.
Meanwhile Watt took out a large cube from his storage and put in the centre of that area. There is a small groove in the middle of it. He took out a rod that fit perfectly inside that groove.
The cube started glowing, before the earth beneath it split up and a bit and the cube disappeared into it. The ground closed down after that as if nothing happened.
With that cube, the war against Olympus has started
