Chapter 1988. Special

Wilted appeared at Chris' secret garden the same moment they saw Master vanishing from Thereath's throne room. Jeanny was not yet back.

Jack joined John in messaging Jeanny, telling her to hurry and accept Chris' invitation to teleport. If Master was lying and he happened to pick the Council of Hybris for his next target, he only needed around one minute to arrive.

Everyone in the garden was tense as they waited. John asked Chris to switch the image to show the Council of Hybris' base. The image showed a massive complex in a vast desert. The complex looked like a futuristic town with many high-rise towers. All the towers seemed to be made of glistening silver. The complex looked like a beacon of light in the middle of the desolate desert.

Everything seemed fine. Nothing was out of the ordinary, but Master could appear any second. They didn't see Jeanny. She was probably inside one of the towers.
