Chapter 128 Clarity Amidst The Chaos



But it was just that when dealing with such forces, they knew their weapons wouldn\'t do the trick. So they could only wait for the Grandmaster to make his move while also looking around vigilantly, lest something grab them from within the dark.

Tick-Tock. Tick-Tock.

Within his millisecond, the Hous all felt a deep wave of pressure engulf them as their eyes began jumping around uncontrollably.

Where? Where was he? Where was the hidden criminal in the room?

This... This... This...

~Gulp.

The Hous and the other guards swallowed hard as their throat, and even their jaw now seemed as tense and stiff as a rock.

Bloody he! What the devil was going on here?

.

The gang of newbies were still worried that the hidden criminal would somehow shoot them with a sniper or something... But Dorian\'s following words only made them shriek in uncertainty.

"One person amongst you all is what I\'m seeking."

"...One person?" The head guard tensed up even more: "Are you saying that the criminal isn\'t hiding in the shadows but is one of us?!"

"Hmm... You can put it that way."

Boom!

An explosion went off in everyone\'s mind, as they now looked at each other deeply, as though wanting to peel open each other\'s brains and find whoever they\'re looking for.

Dammit!

Sweat quickly poured off their faces as they now pointed their guns at each other nervously.

Confusion. Turbulent waves of emotions and several chaotic thoughts flashed through their brains.

And soon enough, some people began to doubt others even more. But Dorian didn\'t get them anymore to think of the matter as he slowly advanced with a calm smile on his face.

At the same time, Old Gia\'s words also resounded out too: "Everyone, drop your weapons now! If you\'re truly innocent, then you\'ll do as told. This will make things go faster! We are not accusing anyone but going through things in an orderly manner. Everyone, including myself, will be subjected to testing. So drop them now!!!"

With that, the Gia men first dropped their weapons on the floor at the left corner of the massive collection of monitors, showing the or stance on the matter.

.

Old Gia knew that if they didn\'t drop their weapons now, these fools might accidentally fear from dear and kill innocent people at will. So it was paramount that he called them down in any way possible.

What they were looking for wasn\'t something normal. But so what? Leaving them in the dark until everything got clear was the best choice for now.

And sure enough, because of Old Gia\'s status as a military personnel, as well as his words, insinuating that they weren\'t accusing anyone but trying to find clues or find an accomplice, made many calm down.

Yes. Even if they weren\'t investigated now, before the end of tonight, wouldn\'t they still get interrogated, seeing that criminal activity was underway?

All they were looking for were clues and ways to catch the culprit. So why would they who had clear consciences be so panicked?

The men, especially the everyday guards who worked in the control room, quickly thought things through in this manner.

Nonetheless, something still bugged them.

Chen Hou frowned deeply: "Grandpa Gia. I agree with your thoughts. Thus, we should indeed start looking for clues to save everyone\'s lives. Nonetheless, I think the Grandmaster\'s words are indeed reasonable. For the culprit(s) to get this far means that they should have someone on the inside who can\'t also watch everything for them. So it\'s not strange to assume that the culprit should be one of us. At the same time, one of us in power could also be working with the criminal. And that\'s why I\'m worried. Because if the culprit is actually amongst us, then after we all drop out weapons, the criminal might take advantage of this to get rid of all in one swoop."

"He\'s right." Ghu Dwo said, understanding Old Gia\'s thoughts on diverting the matter.

Well, he might as well play along because he didn\'t want his son or anyone in his family to get accidentally shot because of fear. No doubt about it, once Dorian began moving, these guards, who hadn\'t received top-tier training like their men, wouldn\'t be able to keep calm then.

.

People trained as assassins or military personnel weren\'t the same as the guards in the control room.

The level of skill and preparedness to face all sorts of dangers made them adjust faster, even when watching Ghu Sota\'s last fiasco in the Ghu house.

Ghu Dwo\'s eyes flickered in understanding of Old Gia\'s thoughts. And because of this, he became very cooperative.

"Nephew Chen is right. The enemy might kill us all after placing our weapons away. And that\'s why we should decide who will place their weapons away last!"

-silence-

... A strange sense suddenly swallowed the room whole, as Ghu Dwo\'s words continuously resounded in everyone\'s ears.

He was right! The enemy might kill them all with this one move. So it was only safe that they pick the last weapon dropper.

And deep down, everyone already knew who that person would be.

Swish!

Instantly, everyone\'s eyes turned to Old Gia in understanding.

His reputation and the level of trust they had for this man were too high.

Additionally, he had nothing to gain by working with such criminals, especially when his gaming was indeed a top military dog.

So him being the one they were looking for was most unlikely.

It was just that all their plans had long been calculated and directed by Old Gia. He knew they would choose him. And so, he took the first step in gaining their attention.

Old Hou thinned his lips while staring at his friend: "Gia... I propose you be the last... No! As a matter of fact, I propose you be the only one to hold up a weapon. That way, even after we drop ours, if the enemy has other tricks up their sleeves, then you can take out the person then and there."

"Hmmm."

The tension in the room was high, as everyone nodded while still looking at one another from time to time.

If an accomplice was amongst them, then who?... Who could it be?

....

Like so, the men began dropping their weapons and having them neatly within one of the garbage bins at the front. And to make matters safer, they also had to drop their coats or other overalls.

Now, they could see everyone in their shirts and pants, seeing if they were hiding anything, anywhere.

Now, the only person left with a weapon was Old Gia.

2 minutes. It only took two minutes for everyone to act swiftly as though they had ants in their pants.

And after receiving the ins of weapons and clothes, Old Gia finally turned towards Dorian calmly.

"Grandmaster. Please... You may now proceed."

"Hmm..."

With that, Dorian slowly opened his eyes as though he were waking up.

And now, seeing him calmly advance, everyone else became mighty curious and anxious at the same time.

Old Hou looked at Dorian deeply: "Old friend... Why do you trust this kid so much without question?"

Yes... Why does he?

Everyone waited for Old Gia\'s response, only to see him smile bitterly with a hint of helplessness in his expression: "You all should be wondering why I trust him so much. But have you also pondered on why the Ghus also trust him so much?"

Swish!

Now, everyone stared at the Ghus.

Explain yourselves! Why do you care about such a brat so much?

Ghu Slota suddenly grinned broadly: "Why? Because he\'s my future master!"

"_"

.

Future master?

Blink. Blink.

Now, they were even more confused than where they started off. What the hell was this Ghu boy talking about?

Jung Hou stared at Dorian with a sharp glint in his eyes: "Grandpa Gia... It\'s him, isn\'t it... It\'s because of him that she turned out well, am I right?!"

Him?

The other Hous were suddenly taken aback, thinking this was all some joke. But Old Gia\'s following response not only shocked them but made them look at Dorian in an even more frightening light.

"Hmmm... He\'s the one."

Boom!

They stared at Dorian and now understood something.

"Old Friend... Is this why you and the Ghus call him Grandmaster?... Is it because he\'s a genius godly doctor?"

This time, Wei Gia was the one to let out a slight chuckle: "Godly Doctor?... Well, you could say that. But no... That isn\'t the reason why he\'s called a Grandmaster. As for what you want to know, I suggest you brace yourselves for what\'s about to come. Because from the looks of things, it looks like the Grandmaster has found his target... Everyone, get back!!!"

Boom!!!
