Chapter 1168: The Final Quest(36)
The central city was several million miles away from Fring City, and it would easily take a few months for Laney to travel. Since there was only around a year left before the deadline for Aakesh's test arrived, Laney felt that it was the right time to start her journey.

It didn't mean that weak beings were no longer affected, but Laney was able to put them under the illusion that nothing was wrong. Once they accepted the recruitment token, the effect would automatically disappear.
As for those who weren't selected and yet were made to ignore the adverse effect, Laney could only pray for them.
