Chapter 449: Suspicion
Chapter 449: Suspicion
For the next ten days, the parks of the thunder god temple, Lightning Spear sect, and ThunderBolt sect, have the same scenarios.
After the first incident in Adrian, although the supervisor there, tried his best to pass the message so that people at other Park’s would be careful, there are still some losses overall.
Many people died due to the unpredictable explosion. Even in the Usaine sect, there are some explosions but not all of them. The only difference is they don’t have any casualties.
Nobody died there, the people who caught up in the mess had injuries at most. This time, the Supervisors from all the Empires couldn’t take it anymore and go back to the Associations.
This is getting out of hand. Even if the association heads didn’t want them to come back, they have to still go on.
But what they don’t know is, even the association heads didn’t know anything. The Park is a product of three crafts combined. In every phase of construction, there would be at least two crafts combined and everything is complex.
This is the only possible explanation they have when they looked at the Blueprints.
When the situation reached this deadlock, they also understood that something is not right and all three of them are trying their best to crack the blueprint and see what is wrong. But they couldn’t understand.
If their calculations are correct, every formation in this plan should work properly without any problems. But they are unsure of what is wrong. They only have speculation about that after some research. Because, they could calculate the whole structure as a whole because they couldn’t anticipate the energy flow of the whole park.
They could divide them into parts and they did exactly that, but they couldn’t combine it properly.
They didn’t have face to talk to their subordinates about their incompetence, that is why they made an excuse of seclusion and went away.
As for backing down now, it is almost impossible. The major powers had invested too much into it. All this while, they have some influence over the major powers due to their professional status.
And now, they did go a bit overboard with the major powers after they got the blueprints. Now, too many resources went into this to give up easily.
If they gave up now, not only do they have to repay all the losses, they will fall out of favor with the major powers.
The four associations are actually in a mutually beneficial relationship with the six major powers.
The Pharmaceutical tower was gone for the moment and there is no strict hierarchy left. The Major powers who have transcendent level healers and pill masters are trying to take over the tower to gain more influence, but nobody dares to make the first move.
As for the remaining three, they wanted to gain more benefits through this method at this moment. Although, in empires and the minor powers, the professionals have more sway in things, at the top of the world the situation is different.
If push comes to shove, the heads of the major powers wouldn’t tolerate the associations. After all, unlike the major powers, the associations don’t have large armies and such. If a real war breaks out, they will die.
That is why the association heads are really trying so hard to get these parks running. In this way, they could prove their worth with the financial means and also gain more pull over things because of that.
But the situation is not getting any better, the three heads are trying day in and day out to find ways to deal with the problems in the formations.
But they are not able to change the situation and now the losses are starting to pile up.
Even after the superiors came, they didn’t give up, all they said is one thing.
“Rebuild the damaged parts and don’t try to activate it at the moment. Study it before you guys try to do anything else.”
With that, the activations are stopped all over the empires and teams sent by Sam also retreated.
It is easy for these elite Nascent stage cultivators to sneak in and place a few cylinders in those vast parks. There are too many openings, apart from that these guys are even so complacent that no one would be able to interrupt their work and left no security.
If they knew that someone just bombed them with some small cylinders they might die from their anger.
After the teams returned, nothing much happened for the next few days and concentrated on the reconstruction, but the supervisors who are overseeing the process are having some doubts.
The damage for the parks under the Usaine sect and its empires are not much damaged. The rubble is high there, but the damaged areas of the park are not important at all.
At most, two to three formations nodes are the only things that are damaged. The herb garden parks are also not damaged at all. The supervisors are not okay with this and reported it to the higherups.
They are suspicious of something and small conflicts rose.
That is because, the associations might see this as just their incompetence, but it is not the same for the major powers.
They received the damage reports and they frowned. The thunder god temple has the most damage and when they compared this to the damage of Usaine sect and the Herb Garden, they became extremely dissatisfied.
The heads immediately went to the Three association heads to confront them.
“Old Three, why are the damages to our parks too much, compared to that the Usaine sect doesn’t have many losses all the damages are superficial and the Herb garden doesn’t even have any damages. How do you explain this?”
The head of the lightning Spear sect asked. The thunder god temple head and the Thunderbolt sect head didn’t speak, but their expression said it all.
“There is nothing to explain. It just played out like that, even in your empires all the parks are not damaged in the same way. It is just a coincidence.” Old three, the formation association head said.
“Coincidence? don’t make me laugh. Do you think there is such a coincidence in the world?”
The lightning spear sect head asked in fury.
The Herb Garden head didn’t like this and stood up and said calmly. “I don’t why my properties are not damaged, but from the investigation I made we did get some results. The Chief supervisor of the Herb garden area said that he gave a silent order to not try and activate the formation.
They are not exactly comfortable, playing with such vast resources, so they didn’t try hard enough. They waited for others to figure out the formations and then wanted to copy their things. They don’t want to try and be the know-it-all and destroy precious resources. That is why there is no damage to our territory.”
Even though what he said sounded normal, he is clearly implying that it is because of the know-it-all behavior of the association that this happened.
The supervisor of the Herb garden suddenly became the center of attention, but he tried his best to stay collected and repeated the same thing, and all the other people who are under him testified.
Even though the three major power heads felt like it is too far-fetched, they still reluctantly let him off the hook.
But now their aim is the Usaine sect. from the start, the Usaine sect is the source of their main suspicions.
Because the Usaine sect has some special relationship with the associations as there are quite a few officials within the associations from the Usaine sect in the associations.
They are the highest producers of the artisans, inscription masters, and Formation masters.
Even though they are not given higher positions, some of the supervisors of this project still belonged to the Usaine sect.
With that, they started having some lingering suspicions on both parties and this couldn’t be erased easily.
At least for the moment though, the conflict was cleared and the Major powers backed off. Sam got some information about this meeting from Sai and Arman.
As for why Sai even got this information, he heard that the major power heads are suspicious of him and tried to interrogate him. But Sai is no pushover. Except for the thunder god temple head, there is no one who could fight him and if his beast came out and both of them tried their best, then they could certainly deal with them.
As for war, they would have need balls to steel to start a major power battle for such a trivial issue.
Since Sai is not involved in this project at all and trying on his own to make a knock-off version of parks, they have some doubts, but still, let him go.
Sam complied with the information he got and prepared for his next step and that is the first outdoor assignment for the architecture department, Artisan department, formation departments, and inscription departments.
Since it has been a little over four months since the school started, it is about time, he sent them on their first field assignment to gain experience.
Some of them are even part of the major project and that is a construction project in Adrian.
