The deacon senior apprentice brother was sluggish as he watched Sam come out of Wood Puppet Lane. He still hadn't figured out just what the hell had happened inside a moment ago. Was there a malfunction in the Wood Puppet Lane array? How come the true essence stones were consumed so quickly!?
"Junior… Junior Apprentice Brother Sam, are you alright?" The deacon senior apprentice froze for a long time before he hesitantly asked him. If there was a breakdown in the array formation, did Junior Apprentice Brother Sam encounter any problems there?
"Me? I'm fine!" Sam asked, somewhat puzzled, but he didn't dwell on this much. "Thank you Senior Apprentice Brother. I will leave first; I'll come by another day and thank you for your hospitality."
Sam turned around and departed.
