Tristan and Matthew were puzzled when suddenly the video call got disconnected.
"Eh, what happened?" Tristan mumbled.
Matthew shrugged his shoulders as he had no idea as well. "Why don't you try calling them again?"
Tristan tried to do another skype call but he couldn't connect anymore.
"Wait, I just rembered. Before the call got disconnected, I noticed the water pouring down. Where did it co from? Did you install a fire sprinkler in your basent?" Matthew asked Tristan.
"No, I didn't," Tristan promptly responded. "I think the laptop got wet by the water and suddenly malfunctioned."
"That's possible. Then let's just wait for them. Sophia and Lillie will call us once they are done," Matthew said while picking his phone to send a ssage to Sophia.
"But it's strange. All I know is that my wife can control fire. Don't tell she can also manipulate and control water?" Tristan said, feeling amused by that thought.
"Eh? That's amazing. Lillie… I an Zhen-Zhen is indeed powerful," Matthew said, praising Zhen-Zhen.
But Tristan didn't feel right about this thing. Was it really possible that Zhen-Zhen could control both fire and water elents?
anwhile, in Tristan's penthouse, FaMo had already sensed a strong force within the area. His face darkened when the fire was extinguished. The water ca out of nowhere and it was not just ordinary water.
"Zhen-Zhen…" FaMo called her attention.
"I will just check sothing. Can you build a strong barrier that will protect you and Sophia? If I'm not back after ten minutes, you and Sophia should leave here as soon as possible. Go back and teleport to sowhere far away from here," FaMo instructed Zhen-Zhen with his serious voice.
Zhen-Zhen and Sophia exchanged glances with one another before nodding their heads at FaMo.
"Okay. I understand. Be careful," Zhen-Zhen said to FaMo with her concerned look.
She had no idea what's going on. Unlike FaMo who could sense danger, Zhen-Zhen didn't feel the strong force around them.
When FaMo left, Zhen-Zhen and Sophia continued watching the CCTV monitor. The mbers of the Bermuda Gang felt relieved after seeing the fire getting extinguished. They were now safe.
Zhen-Zhen also removed the human-form barrier that was protecting the Bermuda Gang. She created a bigger barrier around the house as per the instruction of FaMo. They would be waiting for FaMo's return.
*****
Outside the house, FaMo was still tracking the strong force he felt monts ago. He knew that they were not alone. There was another person around.
And this person was not ordinary. He or she was powerful. He suspected that the person might be a guardian warrior.
"Where are you? Show up yourself! I know you are here! Stop hiding!" FaMo yelled at his surroundings, demanding the person to show himself.
There was a pair of erald eyes, watching FaMo from a distance. Instead of showing himself to FaMo, he went inside the penthouse. But before he moved, he made sure to leave a trap for FaMo.
FaMo continued tracking the strong force. It did not take long when he finally saw sothing sparkling just a few ters away from his current location. It was a strong magical force made by a water elent.
"What is it? Don't tell that the person is a water elent wielder?" FaMo asked himself.
He cautiously approached the area where he saw the sparkling whirlpool of water. Then FaMo created a huge fireball to counter the whirlpool of water.
The two forces collided with each other, creating a huge explosion of magical powers, bursting into the ground.
FaMo frowned when he didn't see a person nearby. "Where is that person?"
He peered at his surroundings, looking for soone. But to his disappointnt, he saw nothing.
FaMo was wondering why the trace of his power suddenly disappeared. He could no longer feel the strong force.
"He is good at concealing his power. I can't feel him anymore. His power… it just vanished," FaMo mumbled to himself.
After a while, he realized sothing. "Zhen-Zhen…" He hastily turned around to look at the penthouse where Zhen-Zhen and Sophia were waiting for him.
"Damn! This is a trap! I am too careless…" FaMo cursed.
He was about to move from his spot and dash toward the house when light burst in front of him. FaMo was blinded by the light for a few monts.
When he regained his vision, he was no longer in the sa place. He was sent to another location.
FaMo had a bad feeling about this. Zhen-Zhen was in danger. He was lured by the enemy. He intentionally separated Zhen-Zhen and Famo.
"NO! This can't be. I should go back and warn Zhen-Zhen."
FaMo tried his best to teleport back to Zhen-Zhen but to no avail, he couldn't do it. He was stuck in that unknown place.
He communicated with Zhen-Zhen through a mind link but he couldn't get through. He lost his connection with her.
"AAAH! What's happening??!" FaMo scread in frustration. He was now worried sick for Zhen-Zhen but he couldn't move.
Little did he know, he was trapped under the strong spell cast by Liam. The mont he stepped to the spot near the whirlpool of water, he entered the spell trap created by Liam.
Aside from being a water elent wielder, Liam was a strong spell caster as he had the blood of Shaman, running in his veins.
No one knew that Liam was the one responsible for this. Last night when he t Sophia and Zhen-Zhen in the convenience store, he marked Zhen-Zhen so that he would know her movent.
He cast another spell on her without her knowledge. The mark he left on her hand was enough to trace her location and monitor what she was doing. He was connected to Zhen-Zhen right now.
The mont Zhen-Zhen used her power this morning as she teleported to Tristan's penthouse, Liam knew that she was on the move.
Liam was still investigating what happened between Zhen-Zhen and the Bermuda Gang. And his suspicion was right. Zhen-Zhen went out to et the gang to punish them.
Liam could also use teleportation by ans of casting a spell about dinsion-hopping. But unlike Zhen-Zhen and FaMo, it would take him so ti before he could teleport to a place.
When he arrived in that area, he used his connection with Zhen-Zhen to know what was happening inside.
He was alard when he heard that Zhen-Zhen tried to threaten the n by saying she could kill them.
Liam misunderstood everything. She didn't an those words. She just wanted to scare those n so that they would speak up and reveal the mastermind.
He started making a move the mont he arrived in that place. Concealing his presence, he used his experience on how he would catch the demon god's daughter.
While Zhen-Zhen, FaMo, and Sophia were busy interrogating the mbers of the Bermuda gang, Liam set several traps around the area.
When he was done, he decided to make his presence known by extinguishing the fire. He thought Zhen-Zhen was really trying to kill and burn those people alive.
He couldn't allow that to happen so he interfered right away. That was the ti FaMo had sensed his power. FaMo got out of the house to find Liam.
Unfortunately, FaMo beca too careless and he fell into his trap easily. Liam diverted FaMo's attention so that he would be separated from Zhen-Zhen.
He thought he couldn't fight both Zhen-Zhen and FaMo, thinking that FaMo was the demon god. Liam considered him as a powerful enemy. Instead of facing the demon god, he would rather confront Zhen-Zhen first.
Zhen-Zhen and Sophia were still waiting for FaMo when Liam secretly entered the house. The barrier which was created by Zhen-Zhen was not working on him. The main cause for that was the mark he put on Zhen-Zhen.
When he was already inside, he cast another spell releasing a fog inside the house. Zhen-Zhen and Sophia noticed the thick fog that was spreading inside the house too fast.
"Zhen-Zhen, what is this? What is happening?" Sophia asked Zhen-Zhen worriedly.
Zhen-Zhen tried to counter the fog by releasing so fireballs to clear their surroundings. But it was not working. The fog scattered fast, reaching even the underground basent.
Zhen-Zhen called FaMo but he was not answering. She couldn't sense FaMo's aura. He vanished without a trace.
'Did sothing bad happen to FaMo?' Zhen-Zhen began to worry.
Then she rembered FaMo's instructions. She imdiately grabbed Sophia's hand. She planned to leave the place and teleport back to the hospital.
She was about to do it when suddenly Sophia collapsed. Zhen-Zhen caught her right away.
"Sophia, wake up." She tapped her face but Sophia was no longer responding. She fainted because of the fog.
Zhen-Zhen hugged Sophia and tried to concentrate again to do the teleport. But before she could do it, she felt dizzy. The fog was making her weak.
It did not take long when Zhen-Zhen also fell unconscious and soone caught her body.
