Dustin’s method was quick and effective, but the approach was unexpected.

Alicia wanted Brian to swiftly regain composure to prevent him from succumbing to exhaustion. She understood that if Brian were incapacitated, no one would be able to confront Shadowcloak.

However, she hadn’t anticipated Dustin would knock Brian unconscious. While it resolved the immediate issue, it left Alicia pondering the implications.

“Brian!”

After a moment of stunned silence, the Celestial Alliance disciples hurried to lift the unconscious Brian and move him away. Despite their attempts to rouse him by shaking and calling out to him, Brian remained sound asleep.

“Dr. Rhys, you knocked him out. So, who is going to deal with the assassins now?” Aurora frowned and felt a headache coming on.

“You only asked me to calm him down quickly. You didn’t say that he had to stay conscious.” Dustin shrugged.

“Uh… well, can you wake him up?” Alicia asked.

“Sure.” Dustin nodded.

“We’d be grateful if you could wake him up,” Alicia breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Brian awakened, they stood a chance to confront Shadowcloak and the assassins.

“Okay,” Dustin responded and promptly pulled out his silver needles.

“Wait!” Aurora interjected cautiously. ” Dr. Rhys, are you certain this won’t go wrong again?”
