Chapter 142: The Upper Echelons Were in Turmoil

Kate snorted, “What’s the big deal? If we’re talking about good relations, Audrey and I are clearly the best of friends.”

Even he himself did not notice that there was a hint of flaunting in his tone when he said those words.

Morris, who was beside him, glanced at him but did not say anything.

At the same time, in the lord’s residence.

Lance’s expression was extremely solemn. He had never expected such a huge matter to happen during the trial.

After Audrey had told him what he had experienced in the trial, Lance fell into a deep state of anxiety.

The most troublesome thing was the Carol Association. He had actually heard of this organization a long time ago and knew that it was filled with extremely evil people. However, he had never expected them to be so brazen.

They had actually extended their hands into the five great families and even entered the trial.

No wonder when Shadowless Ghost Hand came to report the news, his expression was very grave. This was because there were too many people who were injured in this trial. It was to the extent that even the medical team could not handle it.

Moreover, the Carol Association that had been sealed for thousands of years had actually awakened at this moment. Moreover, they even had their own cubs.

Oh my god, I never thought that this trial would cause so much trouble ahead of time.

“City lord Lance, what do you plan to do?” Audrey asked.

Her azure eyes were filled with worry. If this situation were to be leaked, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble in the city.

Ignoring the panic of the citizens, it was mainly the people living near the forest. Without even thinking, they knew that the revival of the Garuda would cause them to feel fear, and they would choose to flee somewhere else.

If that happened, it would be terrible if it affected the others.

“Audrey, let’s not talk about the giant beast first. Let’s talk about the Carol Association first.” Lance’s expression was a little solemn, which was rare. “Are you sure that those people are really from the Carol Association?”

“If that’s really the case, then the first place in this trial will be judged by the Templar Knights to see their true colors.”

Audrey lowered her eyes. She was not sure.

That was because all they had seen was the mysterious man wearing a royal blue shirt with the Carol Association’s logo on his body. It meant that he had truly joined the team.

However, they could not find any traces of the man in the trial. The others looked very ordinary. Therefore, even if they were to investigate in the future, they might not find any useful results.

This was the terrifying aspect of the Carol Association.

They were completely hidden in the shadows. There was not even a single trace of them.

“Leave this matter to me. Audrey, thank you for telling me this news,” Lance said seriously, “I need to gather people for an emergency meeting quickly.”

Audrey nodded in agreement.

The atmosphere in the city that day had visibly become much tenser. It was obvious that all the high-ranking officials were busy. Even the citizens had realized that something was amiss, causing everyone to feel anxious.

However, although the high-ranking officials were in a mess, the trial still had to continue.

Unlike the first phase of the team trial, this one was conducted in batches.

Under the lead of Shadowless Ghost Hand, 25 people followed closely behind and entered the trial grounds.

The individual trials of the Templar Knights were divided into three halls. The first hall was alchemy, the second hall was familiars, and the third hall was purely combat aura.

Everyone needed to undergo the trials in these three halls. Then, finally, they had to go to the top five with the highest overall scores to be recruited.

After saying the rules, the faces of the twenty-five youths instantly turned extremely ugly.

One had to know that they were most afraid of alchemy.

Not only was alchemy complicated, but its success rate was also extremely low. Moreover, if they were not careful, they might even cause an explosion and injure themselves.

It could be said that everyone present knew nothing about alchemy, so naturally, they would be a little afraid.

But although they were afraid, the trial still had to be officially carried out.

After Shadowless Ghost Hand led them in, he distributed them to every table filled with empty potion bottles and left.

“First of all, it’s an honor to meet everyone here,” the old man wearing a tall wizard hat said. “You know, passing the team trial is a very difficult thing, and everyone here is an outstanding person.”

Hearing this, no one said anything. They just looked worried.

After all, they were all afraid of what they would face next.

“I think everyone knows what you’re going to do. I’ll demonstrate the process of making the potion for you. After that, you need to repeat my process and successfully make a perfect potion.”

The old man paused for a moment and smiled, “Of course, it’s fine if it’s not perfect. You need to ensure your own safety. I hope that there won’t be any more explosions. I’m sure all of you don’t know that I was also responsible for supervising the last trial. However, some people were very careless and caused a big explosion, injuring their pretty little faces.”

As soon as he said this, everyone’s expressions turned extremely ugly.

What did he mean by this?

Was this not a blatant threat!? He was threatening them to do it seriously, or else it would cause a huge explosion, just like what he had just said.

“Alright, then I believe that everyone should have already understood what I meant. Now, let’s begin.” The old man’s smile was filled with malice.
