"There’s no good in changing the subject.”
San’s words were interrupted once again.
Taniel, looking understanding, patted San on the shoulder.
San felt his blood pressure rising uncontrollably.
"I an the environnt we’re in now!”
"Not hair loss!”
"It has nothing to do with hair!”
San lowered his voice, emphasizing harshly.
"Really?”
Taniel seed a bit incredulous.
"Really!”
San nodded vigorously.
Seeing San like this, Taniel seed to recognize him for the first ti.
"I finally understand why His Majesty is so overwheld by Prince Ruitai.”
Taniel sighed.
"Why?”
San frowned, feeling that Taniel wouldn’t say anything good.
Indeed, that was the case.
"Because of you foolish subordinates!”
Taniel sighed once again.
Just as San was about to stand up angrily to argue with Taniel, Taniel pointed at Jason.
"Do you understand Jason?”
"At least in terms of intelligence, you should know about Jason.”
"Then you probably just skimd through, without delving deeper.”
"So, you don’t understand Jason at all.”
"You have no idea what Jason’s current attitude represents.”
Taniel withdrew his finger, closed the book, put it on the table, and looked at San, who seed a bit dumbfounded, and sighed again.
San stood there in a daze for a full three seconds.
Then, it was as if he finally ca to his senses.
He got up and walked out.
The door of the carriage was pushed open with a clanging sound.
This made Jason slightly open his eyes.
Then, he saw Taniel, who had just been mocking San, looking at him with a probing gaze.
Obviously, Taniel was speculating just now, with no certainty at all.
Jason was noncommittal about his friend’s behavior.
However, under his friend’s pleading gaze, he nodded.
This made Taniel completely relieved.
He sat up straight, calmly waiting for San to return.
Ten minutes!
When Taniel adjusted his posture for the fourth ti, San returned.
His face was full of horror, his eyes full of shock.
Even after adjusting for a long ti, San couldn’t calm himself down.
The ‘security’ team composed of three professionals and fifteen transcendents disappeared.
Yes!
They just disappeared!
No sign of life or death!
Completely vanished.
And the other people on the train didn’t know anything.
Even now, these people on the train are in a state of confusion, just chanically doing their jobs.
"How on earth did you do it?”
San stared at Jason and asked.
Jason didn’t speak.
The long-waiting Taniel sighed once again.
"Do you really think the Jason you see is the real Jason?”
"Do you really think the Jason you know is the whole Jason?”
"Do you think the fifth-tier ‘Knight’, the fourth-tier ‘Tomb Guardian’, the second-tier ‘Night Watcher’ are all there is to Jason?”
Taniel looked at San with the gaze of soone who has been through it all.
Then, this teacher from Deer Academy, the second advisor of the police departnt, lowered his voice and said—
"Do you think the [Herculean Silver Potion] Jason drank is fake?”
[Herculean Silver Potion]!
San’s body trembled, as if struck by lightning. .
It was as if he thought of sothing.
And Taniel didn’t give San any ti to think, he spoke again.
"Or…”
"Do you think Jason only drank one ‘Herculean Potion’?”
Taniel deliberately elongated his tone.
This ti, San was completely stunned.
Not just the [Herculean Silver Potion]?!
There are other ‘Herculean Potions’?!
What are they?
Black Iron, Bronze?
Or another Silver?
Or…
Gold Potion?!
San’s mind raced.
His evaluation of Jason began to rise sharply.
The intelligence report on Jason ntioned the [Herculean Silver Potion], but the advisors around His Majesty kept denying this information.
Not only has Master Hulk been dead for over a hundred years, but these magic potions have long been consud.
And the so-called magic potions now?
Are rely imitation potions refined a second or third ti.
They can’t compare to the original at all.
What is refinent?
It’s the process of turning those who’ve consud the ‘Herculean Potion’ back into ‘magic potions’.
The process is cruel.
And complex.
The success rate is extrely low.
Moreover, the effects diminish rapidly.
But, the wonders of the ‘Herculean Potion’ ensure that many would pursue it.
However, fifty years ago, even second and third refinents disappeared.
Those who consud the ‘Herculean Potion’ were all hunted down.
Let alone the original ‘Herculean Potion’.
Thus, the advisors by the Emperor’s side concluded that this was Jason trying to cover sothing up.
Coupled with the rivalry between his teacher ‘Dan’ and ‘Shepherd’.
This further deepened the advisors’ suspicions.
After all, the latter is related to that organization.
Adding Tercon’s ‘ritual’, everything started to make sense.
At least, that was how San saw it.
At the very least, that’s how it was before.
But no one expected it to be true!
San was breathing heavily.
He forced himself to calm down, but his gaze at Jason beca increasingly respectful and complex.
Respect due to power.
Complexity?
Also due to power.
Prince Ruitai possessing dual professions already left them struggling to cope.
Now, another Jason with triple professions appears.
Even if Jason doesn’t have a legendary dragon.
But Jason consud the ‘Herculean Potion’!
Even if it’s not the original!
It’s been refined a second or third ti!
That’s still shocking enough!
Then, San thought of sothing else.
Taniel!
What is Taniel’s ‘profession’?
Pharmacist!
To refine the ‘Herculean Potion’ surely requires the assistance of a ‘Pharmacist’, Taniel as a first-level ‘Pharmacist’ naturally couldn’t achieve this, but what about his teacher? ꞦàꞐǒ𝐛Е𐌔
Then thinking about how Dan, Jason’s teacher, was unusually persistent with ‘Shepherd’.
And how Taniel and Jason suddenly beca friends!
Everything beca obvious!
So that’s how it was!
The rumors said ‘Shepherd’ once consud a refined version of the ‘Herculean Potion’.
Jason’s teacher ‘Dan’ pursued ‘Shepherd’ for this reason.
So during this period, could they have acquired so refined version of the ‘Herculean Potion’?
Then handed this ‘Herculean Potion’ to Taniel’s teacher.
Who completed the re-refinent.
Subsequently, it was given to Jason to consu.
Taniel then brought this refined version of ‘Herculean Potion’ to Jason, so the two quickly ford such a strong friendship.
So that’s how it was!
San, feeling a long exhale of relief, stood up again,
"Mr. Jason, I need to use the train’s radio to inform His Majesty of everything that has happened here.”
"Rest assured, your information will be kept confidential.”
"I will inform His Majesty in person!”
After finishing, San didn’t leave imdiately.
Instead, he waited until Jason nodded, then bowed, and turned to leave.
Watching San leave, Taniel couldn’t help but smile.
"Jason, do you think San will cry out of anger when he realizes he’s been deceived?”
Taniel teased.
Deceiving San wasn’t the point.
The point was spreading the erroneous information.
This would be of great help to their journey with Tert—Taniel already had a small plan in mind.
As for feeling guilty about deceiving San?
San wasn’t his friend.
Taniel felt no guilt at all.
Jason didn’t answer.
Taniel scratched his head, then asked again.
"Jason, how did you do it?”
San was curious, Taniel was also curious.
However, to maintain his persona, Taniel pretended to know everything.
Now that San was gone, Taniel imdiately dropped the act.
Jason opened his eyes, glanced at Taniel helplessly.
Then, he raised a hand and snapped his fingers.
Snap!
After the crisp sound, four figures appeared, kneeling on one knee—
"Master!”
