Chapter 1952 Out Of Reach
“What do you mean they left?” Placake’s mood obviously soured as soon as he heard Calina and Qia’s words. Soon after, Placake used his Spatial Powers to envelop the area where his tracking claws were located. Sometime later, the space around the claws warped before they were suddenly teleported to Placake’s side. Even the System Sect’s defenses could do nothing about it.
As one can imagine, it was useless. All he got was a pair of light blue claws and two Divine Stones attached to them. The twins were simply nowhere to be found. “This…”
Placake looked at the claws in dismay. He couldn’t believe that his claws had been removed from inside the twins’ bodies without him noticing anything.
Linfia also took a look at that and was just as impressed. “Their Divine Energy… it’s the same! The Divine Energy from these Divine Stones is exactly the same as the twins’ ones.”
However, that didn’t matter to Placake. He could also make Divine Stones carrying his own Divine Energy by running it inside his body and then returning it. What he couldn’t believe was that anyone could remove his claws instead. He was confident that even someone at the same level as him wouldn’t be able to do it without him feeling anything.
He then looked at Calina and Qia with a dark expression. “How did they do it? Speak! Also, you better tell me where they are right now!” Obviously, he had already spread out his Divine Sense. However, the twins were nowhere to be found.
Qia just smiled in response and took out a jade slip. “Here, Senior Placake. Rean asked me to deliver it to you.”
.me.
Placake looked at Linfia and the others before taking the jade slip. Right after that, everyone sent their Divine Senses inside.
-Hello, Senior Placake. I hope you’re doing well. Roan and I had some business to deal with, so we’ll be taking our leave. Unfortunately, even though I can remove your claws from inside our bodies, it only works for Roan and me. With that said, we decided to leave Qia, Calina, Zuo, and the rest of the System Sect under your care. Don’t worry. I’ve already concluded my part of the deal between us. Rawor and the other Formation Masters now know everything they need to know about Circuitry Formations.-
Of course, Rean didn’t stop there.
-Oh, and you better treat them well. Just keep things the same way as they’ve been so far. Qia, Calina, Zuo, and the rest of the System Sect will be your guarantee that we won’t spread any information about your communication system’s secrets. However, I’m still the creator, so I can definitely think of a way to take it down from afar. As long as I’m close enough to one of the antennas, I can definitely make it possible. I’m sure you don’t want such a thing to happen.-
-As for how we removed your claws, that will have to stay a secret. We haven’t even told our wives and kids about it, so you can use a Soul Binding Contract on them as much as you want. But of course, that will be useless.-
-Then again, it’s not like we haven’t warned you before. Do you remember the day we met? The day that both humanoid and demon beast races almost fought for Havek and me? That day, Roan and I told you that we could escape anytime we wanted, which wasn’t a lie. Just because you put a tracker on us didn’t mean we had no way of dealing with it. In the end, you relied too much on the difference in cultivation between you and us. Perhaps this will serve as a reminder for you to be more careful in the future.-
-Last but not least, Roan and I will be back one day. Just make good use of Qia’s ability in formations. She does know a lot of my stuff as well. Considering what has happened, I doubt you will let her or the others even enter a place where your Divine Sense can’t see them anyway. By the way, if Roan and I are still inside the communication formation’s range, you can contact us through the communication badge.-
Placake and the others looked at Qia, Calina, and Zuo after that. Their hands were pretty much tied up because of Rean’s warning. They better treat the girls well, or Rean could use some method to take the entire communication system down.
Placake quickly shifted his attention to Rawor. “Is what he said true? You and your group learned Circuitry Formations from Rean and his Formation Masters all this time. Can you tell whether he left some mechanism capable of disabling and making it all useless from afar?”
“I don’t believe so…” Rawor spoke his real thoughts. After these two decades, he thought that he or the other Formation Masters would have noticed if such a thing existed.
“You believe so?” Placake didn’t like the answer, though. “Do you believe so, or are you certain? I need certainty! Are your absolutely sure that such a loophole doesn’t exist?” The attack against the devils was set to start in a few decades. Placake’s demon beast race couldn’t take any chances.
“I… am not absolutely sure.” Unfortunately, Rawor couldn’t guarantee it. He looked at the other Formation Masters who also worked on the communication system, but they all shook their heads.
“I mean, we’re confident that we didn’t let anything pass through. But then again, Rean was the creator. He might have done something at the start when our knowledge of Circuitry Formations was still scant. Perhaps something that he hasn’t taught us is capable of achieving this result.”
“Go check,” Placake immediately ordered. “Look at everything. I hope nothing happens for your own good.”
Right after, Placake took his communication badge out. Obviously, he also received one of those from the System Sect. Although the System Sect used a different one from the demon beasts, he quickly input Rean’s communication badge number, hoping to get connected. Unfortunately…
-Device out of reach.-
Rean’s communication badge was not in range anymore.
