Chapter 114 Explanation, Sleep Dust
"Thunder Wizard, Sunil Wizard and I came to Forked Ridge together to investigate the situation."
"Although I have no hostility towards you, since we came together, and since the wizard Sunil rushed into the castle while you were meditating, I cannot back down."
"Otherwise, if he succeeds, I will definitely have no way to explain it when I go back."
"I hope you can understand me on this point," Wizard Ralph said sincerely, explaining his "unavoidable" situation.
Meanwhile, the wizard Sunil, who was listening to his words, had a contorted expression on his face.
His fluctuating mental energy, which was preparing to break through the cage, exploded at this moment.
"Ralph, you were the one who suggested arresting him while he was meditating, but you're blaming it all on me."
"Ralph, I'll f*** your ancestors!"
"I curse your mental strength so that it will never increase in your entire life!"
The wizard Sunil cursed angrily, furious.
Listening to his curses, the wizard Ralph didn't explain, but simply maintained a non-resisting stance.
In any case, he never showed any hostility towards this Thunder Wizard from beginning to end—that was his greatest source of confidence!
This Thunder Wizard, who had clearly prepared his spells and knew of their arrival, chose to capture them alive rather than kill them.
This proves that the Thunder Wizard had no intention of killing them.
He, too, was waiting for an opportunity to communicate.
This is Ralph Wizard's second source of confidence.
"Respected Thunder Wizard, the powder on the ground is called Sleep Dust, which is pollen extracted from a type of butterfly."
"It can suppress the mental activity of living beings, even wizards." Wizard Ralph pointed to the 'dust' on the ground—the stuff that had been thrown into the room along with the explosion at the beginning.
According to the initial plan, after Ralph and Sunil suppressed Loon's mental power together, they would use the sleeping dust to "dizzy" Loon and then take him away...
Therefore, Ralph made two follow-up plans—if Loon was really captured, he would secretly release Loon and then tell Loon the 'truth' so that Loon could inform the Scarlet Wizard to 'be vigilant'.
In this way, with two vigilant wizards guarding each other and an offensive spell, even if other wizards came to attack Loon and his group, they would have room to deal with it and would not be wiped out from the start.
If Loon and his group hold out long enough, then as one of the five wizards of the Shield Kingdom, Wizard Ralph will naturally be 'unbound' under the current circumstances and will be able to act openly and legitimately to a certain extent, just like Loon.
If their attack fails... then they should just sell out Wizard Sunil and tell Wizard Thunder about the current 'situation' in exchange for Wizard Thunder's forgiveness.
This is also to allow the alliance between the Thunder Wizard and the Crimson Wizard to stand longer in these cross-mountain ridges!
This also achieves his goal of "loosening the reins".
"Respected Thunder Wizard, I have some matters I'd like to discuss with you. However, to avoid being disturbed by others, how about we first use sleeping powder to put Wizard Sunil to sleep?"
"Let's talk about it tomorrow." After a moment of silence, Loon went straight back to his room, picked up the sleep powder, and threw it directly onto the faces of Wizard Ralph and Wizard Sunil.
Then, under Luo Ang's intense gaze, the two of them began to breathe, inhaling the sleep dust into their lungs.
As the two inhaled more and more dust... soon, their heads drooped, their breathing became steady, and their active mental energy also returned to stability, just like the surface of water without the slightest ripple.
Both wizards had fallen into a deep sleep under the influence of the sleeping dust.
Even so, Loon was still not completely at ease. He used his mental power to support the two wizards, making them lie on their backs, and then continued to sprinkle sleeping dust on their faces.
Seeing that the two wizards had inhaled about a third of the total amount of sleeping dust, Loon nodded in satisfaction and dispelled the spiritual energy and mystery within the vines...
Without the support of the vines, the two 'bodies' immediately fell limply to the ground.
After stripping them naked, Luo Ang beckoned to the Iron Sword Viscount, who had been startled by the explosion but was lingering in the distance and dared not approach. He ordered the two men to be taken to the dungeon and locked up—they were only allowed to be locked up in the dungeon, but no one was allowed to guard them in the dungeon.
After that, Loen opened the study—inside, old Colin, who was checking the accounts, was very alert.
The moment he heard the noise, he had already hidden in a corner of the study.
After confirming that Old Colin was alright, Loon summoned a team of maids and had them put on masks and clean up all the sleep dust.
With all these arrangements made, Luo Ang changed rooms and resumed his meditation.
Meditation is something that requires perseverance—Lon's past life experiences have taught him that cultivating a good habit is extremely difficult.
But this good habit can be broken in an instant, with just a few excuses to convince yourself.
Just like this daily meditation.
Loon could now tell himself that communicating with Wizard Ralph was a very important matter, and that his meditation had already been interrupted—in this situation, he would need more energy to calm the turbulence in his mental energy if he wanted to continue meditating.
With just this one excuse, you can easily give up today's meditation.
But what about tomorrow?
What about the day after tomorrow?
Will there be even more excuses to give up meditation in the future?
In the end, will I completely give up meditation? Just like when I skipped classes in college in my past life.
Probably!
Although every wizard knows that meditation is the cornerstone of wizarding practice and the most stable channel for increasing spiritual power—reality is not a game.
Meditation doesn't have a progress bar.
Now, Loen is only a second-class wizard apprentice. His progress in each meditation is almost negligible. He feels almost no progress at all. Under such circumstances, if he becomes complacent, the habit of regular meditation that he has worked so hard to cultivate will simply disappear...
Before long, the daily meditation will disappear from Loen's daily "schedule".
Meditation will gradually become a 'ritual,' only performed on certain special occasions...
This is a scene that Loen absolutely does not want to see.
So, although I really wanted to talk to Ralph and the others, and wanted to know what was going on with the current situation...
Koloon chose to continue his meditation for the day.
