“Levi Garrison!” Zoey exclaimed through gritted teeth, with vibes so chilling that they stunned everyone.
Isn’t Levi her husband?
How did he become her enemy instead?
The Seven Fiends were feeling perplexed.
“That’s not it. Ms. Lopez, Levi is your…”
Just when they started to speak, they were interrupted by Wynona.
“Do you still remember Levi?” Wynona tried to probe further, trying her luck.
“I remember that he’s my enemy! I am gonna kill him if I see him!” Zoey said, her eyes burning with fury.
“I heard that he has already been captured and will be executed soon! That’s fantastic!” Zoey was overjoyed when she heard the news.
After observing Zoey for some time and hearing what she said earlier on, Wynona had already figured out what was going on.
Jared’s consciousness must have attacked Zoey’s mind and infiltrated her consciousness, resulting in Zoey’s memory loss.
It had to be Jared’s consciousness at play for her to think that Levi was actually her arch-enemy as Levi was actually that man’s enemy.
Well, this is a tough situation!
Wynona was at a loss as to what to do.
The situation had been made even more challenging due to the fact that Zoey had gained new superpowers.
Meanwhile, at The Cardinal Hall, the council members were fuming and the leader of The Inferno was kneeling on the ground.
Everyone was in disbelief that even with the combined forces of The Cardinal Hall and Eragon, that had still happened.
Obviously, they were upset about it.
“The elites of Erudia have all been incapacitated. Trenton, Josephine and the rest have also landed in the hands of the Fiends, and that’s as good as being incapacitated too. It seems like Evie is our only hope!”
“Relay my orders that from now onward, no one is allowed to make plans on Evie and Mia! The Cardinal Hall will be focusing all our resources on grooming them. The future of Erudia’s martial arts world will depend on the two of them! Without our permission, no one is allowed to do anything to them! Also, we should try to save as many incapacitated elites as we can!”
That decision made by the council members of The Cardinal Hall had shattered The Inferno’s plan.
They were intending to use Forlevia to threaten Levi, in order to get him to divulge Cyrus’ secrets.
Their troubles would be resolved if Levi knew the secret.
Meanwhile, Levi had spent a long time thinking of reasons why the Dragon Chain could not be unlocked.
He concluded that there were two main reasons.
The first reason was related to the Dragon Chain’s structure. The nine chains were complementary to one another with a special mechanism designed. If any movement was detected on one of the chains, the other chains would be able to sense the motion and activate the mechanism, tightening the Dragon Chain.
The second reason was that, the material used to create the Dragon Chain was the extremely rare iron meteorite. Combined with the skills of the master of magical techniques, the Dragon Chain was practically indestructible! It was simply impossible to unlock it!
That was also the reason they were so confident to leave Levi alone, without anyone keeping watch on him.
They were certain that the man would not be able to escape.
Levi took a deep breath and muttered to himself, “Mentor, judging by the current situation, it seems like I’ve no choice but to use the Forbidden Technique!”
However, Levi’s mentor did not actually impart the skill to him.
It was recorded in the ancient manual instead.
Even though Levi was warned not to use the technique, he had no other choice but to use it during such a crucial moment.
Even though Levi was unable to unlock the Dragon Chain just by his powers alone, the Forbidden Technique should help him with that!
As such, the man was determined to try. After all, it was a matter of life and death.
“I don’t believe that nothing can break open this Dragon Chain!”
Meanwhile, a piece of shocking news had erupted outside.
Robed Slayer, who was second on the Gem list, had appeared and released a statement, announcing that it wasn’t him who defeated Levi. In fact, he had never even met the man.
Everyone was shocked by the news.
If it wasn’t the Robed Slayer who had defeated Levi, who could it be then?
