Chapter 1164: Chapter 1164: Boarding the Plane
Gonzalez City to Middle-river Pier does not have a direct route.
But one could take an airplane, first reaching the city near Middle-river Pier.
Then take a car to the pier. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Seven Clouds Academy directly chartered a plane.
A group of over a hundred people flew straight to Cook’s City.
Cook’s City, the city closest to Middle-river Pier.
It once languished economically due to its remote and backward situation.
Later, it also experienced war turmoil and almost became a deserted city.
And just as they had taken off, Elaenor Wood, leading Zain Ellsworth, arrived at the Gonzalez City airport.
An old man and a young man, they looked like nobles from a wealthy household.
Arrogant!
Elaenor Wood wore a white suit and a pair of sunglasses, and he also held an umbrella in his hand.
He had learned this from books.
It is said that during the Republic of China period, those young masters often dressed this way.
Upon reaching the airport, Elaenor Wood checked himself in the mirror.
Not bad.
Following behind him, Zain Ellsworth wore the unchanging Sun Yat-sen suit.
His short hair had already turned white.
But from a distance, one could feel an aura of a powerful figure.
"Medicine God, are we really going to Shadow Gate to compete with those people for the Divine Dragon Tripod?" Zain Ellsworth asked softly.
That afternoon, after hearing that the Divine Dragon Tripod was in Shadow Gate, Elaenor Wood quickly packed and took him to the airport.
He didn’t even verify the authenticity of the news.
Rumors are mostly false.
"I heard that the Holy Master also went to Shadow Gate. Since that’s the case, why shouldn’t I go?" Elaenor Wood walked up to the ticket check, nodding politely.
To the unknowing, it would be difficult to associate him with the ruthless Medicine God.
One would only think of him as an elegant and graceful young master.
But on Boulevard Mountain.
Elaenor Wood nearly exterminated the group of Supreme Elders from Medicine King Valley in the blink of an eye.
"Holy Master? But the lineup from Seven Clouds Academy does not include Mad Dragon. How do you conclude..." Zain Ellsworth hesitated.
The Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance was in chaos, and the Holy Master had no power to mobilize the Wolf Cavalry there.
The only thing he could control was the Seven Clouds Academy, which had Mad Dragon’s identity.
But in the lineup sent out by the Seven Clouds Academy, there was no Mad Dragon.
Leading them was Templeton Lena.
Zain Ellsworth specifically went out to inquire and only dared to report after confirming the results.
"Just now, I took you to two places," Elaenor Wood stretched out two fingers as he boarded the plane and spoke, "The foreign-style house where the Holy Master resides, and the temporary headquarters of Seven Clouds Academy."
"Correct!" Zain Ellsworth nodded.
Before coming here, they had indeed gone to these two places for a visit.
"But when we were at the foreign-style house, didn’t we see the Holy Master leaning by the window, as if pondering something?"
"That was not the case."
After boarding the plane, Elaenor Wood looked around like a child.
Steel machinery that could fly.
He was very curious.
I really wanted to try.
He always felt that in the centuries he slept, he missed too much.
A bit of a minor regret.
"The aura of the Sacred Master, I can feel it. Clearly, that’s a fake Sacred Master. The temporary headquarters of the Qi Yun Academy also lacks his presence. Where do you think the Sacred Master would go at this time?"
Elaenor Wood looked out the window and then leaned back in his seat.
"It’s only Shadow Gate. The Divine Dragon Tripod is the treasure of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance. It is also a crucial part of my plan! To kill the Sacred Master, I must borrow the power of the Divine Dragon Tripod."
"Your subordinate is dull-witted."
Zain Ellsworth was extremely puzzled, "Can it be that there is only this one method?"
A person is destined to die!
He was more inclined to kill Julius Reed himself.
The simplest method would be a direct fight!
But now, Elaenor Wood was actually drinking tea face-to-face with the Sacred Master, and even casually saved one of the women by the Sacred Master’s side.
It was beyond belief!
Zain Ellsworth even prepared for a clash between the two.
But upon their first meeting, the two were so amicable that it was somewhat frightening.
"Cannot be killed," Elaenor Wood shook his head, "If he could be killed, he wouldn’t have lived to this day. Four years ago, he was infected with my poison, and parts of his memory were locked away. That was the best opportunity. Yet, by chance, the Sacred Master appeared in Gonzalez City and has been safe for four years. Do you know why?"
"I don’t know..." Zain Ellsworth shook his head, feeling all this was beyond his understanding.
"Based on my speculation, during the battle at the snow mountain four years ago, someone must have realized that they could not kill the Sacred Master. Hence, the following four peaceful years in Gonzalez City. According to my investigations, during these four years, the Sacred Master suffered many accidents. Poisoned, bagged, stabbed. But he survives, well and alive."
Elaenor Wood took the eye mask from Zain Ellsworth’s hand, gently placed it over his eyes, and said, "That’s why, out of desperation, those people forced the Sacred Master to recover his memory. But, he only recalled a small part."
"There are such capable people under heaven?"
Zain Ellsworth couldn’t help asking, "I’ve only heard of people losing their memory due to accidents, never of someone being able to selectively recover memory."
When subjected to an external shock, a person might lose their memory for a short period.
But memories, their recovery is too random!
The human brain is the most complex structure known to date.
Even modern science has not been able to fully understand it.
Now, hearing what Elaenor Wood said, he found it somewhat ridiculous.
The thought of making someone remember only certain things, how could that be possible!
"Originally, it would be impossible. But two reasons made it all possible."
Elaenor Wood said, "Back then, someone formed the Pendleton Alliance, attempting to overthrow the rule of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance. Within the Alliance was one lineage called Sealing. The Sealing Pulse specializes in erasing memories."
"Pendleton?"
This was the first time Zain Ellsworth heard of this organization.
"Yes, Pendleton. Although the Sealing Pulse was foolproof when used on ordinary people, they were powerless against the Sacred Master. But fortunately, the Dragon King Ring helped them. That ring is full of Evil Qi!"
Elaenor Wood finished speaking and shook his head, "The Sacred Master had not recovered his memory half a year ago. His memory was recovered bit by bit. If I’m not mistaken, the memories he recovered half a year ago were completely fabricated by someone. In other words, they were things some people wanted the Sacred Master to remember. Only the Sealing Pulse could do such a thing."
"It’s actually like this!" Zain Ellsworth’s jaw dropped in shock.
These things had completely exceeded his understanding.
"Medicine God, how did you come to know these things after your long sleep in the Kunlun Mountains?"
After all, Elaenor Wood had only woken up a few days ago!
During this period, Zain Ellsworth had been constantly by his side.
"The Medicine King Valley’s concocting of medicines back then was not by chance. It was an intentional arrangement," Elaenor Wood said wearily. "Some things, when the time is right, you will come to know. Remember, what you see may not be the truth, and what you hear may not be reality. The journey to Shadow Gate is not as easy as imagined, enjoy the last moments of peace."
After speaking, he seemed to fall asleep.
"Sir, could you give up your seat for me?"
Yet at that moment, a middle-aged man walked over to Zain Ellsworth’s side.
The man leaned forward, speaking softly, "I’d like to have a talk with the one inside."
