Chapter 2247  Mules

Ling Tian immediately moved after getting that tip from Sam.

He ordered for the elders to move directly and secure the surroundings of the gate that leads to the pocket dimension. As hours passed, he got more and more nervous as he knew how ruthless Sam could be just to send a message.

Ever since the whole thing blew up with the managers attacking the hub, he has been in a deep thought.

While he was in those thoughts, the time passed very quickly. Faster than ever and soon the pocket dimension showed the reaction that he was anticipating so much for.

All the first graders came out.

As soon as they did, their wrist bands all received a silent alert.

First one's went for Sam's friends. It was a headsup so that they would take the necessary measures to be safe from what is about to come.

Ling Tian's eyes locked on to Sam's friends as soon as they came out. He didn't even look for the students of Gambler academy. He just observed them. Of course, the other academy elders and instructors that came rushed the whole crowd.

They are trying to find every possible student from their academy and they are here to make the students remove their wrist bands and destroy the bird puppets.

However, even before they could approach, the silent alert has come.

Sam's friends made a move. They all took a step back and went to the extreme back of the crew.

At that moment, all of a sudden the second alert came to the wrist bands. Not just to the wrist bands of these people, but all the active wrist bands of the whole region. When Sam did this before, the information was filtered and it was categorized.

Every person got whatever information that is related to them. It is all tailor made.

However, this time, the information was not like that. If the previous attempt was like a straight shooting, but this… this is something different.

The second alert can be divided into two parts.

First one is the information that was sent to the wrist bands and the information is mostly focused on a single faction, a person or a group of people that are working together momentarily because of their common aligned goals.

Second part is an activation mechanism for the wrist bands.

The mechanism injected the information into the souls of the recipients. Even if they didn't want that information, it is now imprinted into their brains.

After that was done, all the recipients regardless of their cultivation level experienced a headache. The first graders in particular almost collapsed. Sam's friends and a few more students from various academies were exception of this.

Sam left them just to avoid some doubts.

However, there are some people he didn't excuse. Even White and Dayus got affected by this.

After the second alert was successfully completed, a third alert was sent to everyone. And this information is a little bit more unique than the previous one.

But the gist of the common message is this:

'Dear Recipient,

All the things that you have committed and you wanted to hide, all the information about your illicit affairs, your less than appropriate measures, your more than criminal actions have been sent to a specific person. That person will now act as what I like to call the Information Mule.

And a message was also sent to the worst enemy that would like to kill you more than anyone else.

So, please be informed that they can do whatever they want with this information. As long as your worst enemy catches the Information mule, they will have access to all the things that you have ever done.

Trust that the revelation of this information, even partially, will either get you killed by your peers or you would face some serious punishment in the court of academy realm.

While I don't want to say the name of your worst enemy out loud, since you would know it better than I will ever do, I would like to share the name of the Information mule along with their affiliation details with you.

All I need to do is for you to pay the price. So, go to the Hub and check in with the machine which is used for the weekly payments after midnight. Because after midnight if you do not respond, the information will automatically reach the person that it was meant to reach.

Thank you.'

While the message and the exact words might have differed from person to person, the gist and intent was this.

Of course, Sam cannot just have the people who don't have the wrist bands off just like that. So, he did something else. A bunch of bird puppets flew out of the Hub and reached all the people that didn't have the wrist bands with them.

The birds flew in front of them and then projected the message.

Just to make sure that they all got the intended message. When Ling Tian understood the situation, he had cold sweats. He gave out an order.

"Send all the students back to the academy. Core area. Take them to the location where Sam is. Tell the Dean and Dove that I sent them."

He raised his aura to make sure his presence is known to the surrounding elders and instructors. He separated the gambler academy students and made them move. The elders of the gambler academy formed a protective formation around them and escorted them all safely back to the Gambler academy.

However, right before Ling Tian was about to leave, he looked back into the ground and his gaze landed on White.

White was still in aftershock of the sudden headache. For some reason he felt that the impact that he had was stronger than the rest.

He looked around as the elder of Zeus academy examined him. Then he looked in Ling Tian's direction.

He could see the worry in the latter's eyes and felt a bit wary.

In whatever the past that both of them shared, he has never see Ling Tian this worried. He had a bad feeling about this. But because of the elder's hurry, he was moved to the academy.

Soon, Ling Tian is back in the academy grounds and he immediately went to Sam.

All the first graders are already moved there. Whatever fight that is about to come, Ling Tian is sure that the first graders cannot handle this. They will die before they realize what hit them.

He looked at their concerned faces and felt irritated.

The Gambler academy students are usually the toughest of the bunch, because most of the other academy students come from places of privilege, they could more ruthless or even competent, but their wills are weaker compared to Gambler academy students.

But even they are in full on panic mode.

Ling Tian went into the room Sam is staying in activated a concealment formation. Sam didn't react. He was meditating and stayed that way.

"Sam, I need to talk to you."

"About?" Sam just asked calmly without even opening his eyes.

"About the shit you pulled just now. Do you have any idea what this could to the academy realm? The Olympian region is going to implode because of this. They are going to tear each other apart the moment the information about these Info mules leaks out."

"Come on Ling Tian. You sound surprised."

Sam asked with genuine confusion as he opened his eyes.

Ling Tian was stumped.

Sam chuckled and continued.

"Even before, just a few hours, you had that longwinded conversation that would put anyone to boredom.

Did you have that without knowing my goal?

In fact, you should be the first one to know this. You have been following me since day 1. You cannot act like this is the first time you are seeing me.

As I told you before, I am going to tear apart the whole academy realm. The place that is supplying the soldiers to the gods that I have a conflict with, it shall be destroyed."

"I understand, but this… this is worse that giving information about to enemies to one and the other. This, you are involving the first graders in such a dangerous plot.

I know that you wanted to force everyone into war, but this spreads way too much. The first graders… they all have connections outside, the moment the attacks begin, all the external families will be involved, they will start killing each other and the conflict spreads out of the academy realm.

The messenger council will be involved.

The whole point of that bored conversation is to remind you that, so that you will stay your hand a bit. So, that you will consider the repercussions before doing something like this. However, you did it anyway.

Sam, I think you are locking horns with something bigger than you.

You and your friends… the way you are going at this, you are going to be in big trouble.

The Dusk, and all the things that you worked to get… they might be big, but not big enough to play like this."
