Chapter 400 Visit to the Golden Pond - II
"Argh!" Dane said as he felt pressure on his body and mind.
Kai was in a similar state as they landed in a forest-like place. Turning their heads, they could see a massive building, the World Association Headquarters, but along with that, they could see the massive wall covering this area.
"This felt even worse than the Continental Teleportation Gate," Dane muttered as he looked at the back of Asher standing before him.
"Are you in?" Tom asked through the communication device.
"Yeah," Kai replied while massaging his head.
"But Boss, are you fine?" Kai asked, looking at Asher.
Asher, standing with his eyes closed, opened them, touched the edge of his eye, and looked at his finger.
There was blood on his hand, and this was the side effect of using a space element spell that was considered a forbidden spell due to how dangerous it was.
What Asher had done was increase the complexity of the leap magic and reconstructed it into an advanced leap that was considered an upper level of Tier 3 Spells.
Ignoring the mana that was required to do this spell, Asher not only teleported himself but also Dane and Kai.
Although the distance wasn't that great, they went past the multiple security systems and runes that were placed around this place.
"I am fine, but from now on, don't use any kind of artifact here," Asher said as he looked into the sky.
Although it appeared like a normal sky, if someone looked closely, runes were floating in the air, and they were detection runes that could detect any type of artifacts, especially ones that were capable of teleporting a person.
This place was sealed off and was secure enough to make sure nobody except those who were authorized could enter.
"The communication device will stop working when we go past that place," Asher said as he sensed the runes hidden on the ground.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
Kai and Dane looked at the direction Asher pointed at as they nodded at each other.
"Listen, according to the records in the database I have found, the next time someone would visit this place is in 3-4 weeks," Tom reminded them.
"I couldn't get the exact timing and date because the complexity of their security system has changed; if I interfere any further, there's a chance that they might find out someone is looking in the database," Tom explained.
"It's enough time," Asher replied.
"Store that communication device; we will not need them now," Asher said as he took out the earpiece, and placed it inside his storage ring.
Following his example, Dane and Kai did the same.
"Let's go," Asher said as they started running behind Asher.
Soon enough, all of them felt as if they had passed through a sheet of water, and it was the runic layer that was used to suppress all kinds of signal waves inside this place.
And that was Asher himself.
Although Asher didn't know the exact location of the 'place' he was looking for, he knew that it existed.
It was something that allowed the Allister Family to grow their influence so much in the coming years that, in his memory, the Allister Family became far more powerful than the Royal Family and the Everett Family combined.
"Keep an eye out for any rocky places or places where you can spot a cave," Asher said out loud.
"We have three weeks to find that cave," Asher said.
"Ok, Boss," Dane and Kai replied together as they sharpened their senses.
Asher was constantly using his mana sense to get an image of his surroundings to find the 'place' That was the reason why he took the trouble of entering the World Association Headquarters and even using a spell like that to teleport both Dane and Kai with him.
Even right now, Asher is enduring the headache that comes with the usage of space elements.
One Week went by, as Asher, Dane, and Kai were resting in a grassland that was filled with white flowers.
"This place looked so peaceful a moment ago," Dane muttered with a grim look on his face.
When they first arrived at this place, even Dane and Kai were moved by the beauty of the scenery that was in front of them.
But that image soon got ruined when Asher told them that those flowers were one of the most poisonous flowers in the world.
And they were so potent that even A Rank Hunters like them would fall to them if they didn't get the correct antidote in three weeks' time.
But the poison that could be made by correctly using them was enough to kill an A Rank Hunter in a second.
A poison that Dane and Kai were knowledgeable about because of their life at Spyder.

Outside the Orphanage,
"Did you get the message from the Black Squad?" The man asked.
"They are coming to recruit this batch of children in 3 weeks," His subordinate replied.
"Good, I was getting tired of feeding them anyway," The man replied with a frustrated look on his face.
"Up their dosage, make sure they crave for this stuff like their whole life depends on it," The man said as he passed a small, sealed flask.
"And reduce their meals as well," The man said as he turned to leave.
"As you wish, hahaha," His subordinate laughed as he turned around to go back into the Orphanage.
