Chapter ?784 Discovered
Rudra stared at Jhonny wide eyed as what he said made perfect sense to him. When he looked at the area from his eyes he just looked at the reef at the bottom and the footmarks of the beasts , he did not think critically enough and if it was not for Jhonny uncovering this crucial information Rudra would have still beleived that it was a natural lake and not a trap.
The question that remained now was why would someone go to such lengths and create a lake when there was nobody present to ambush , as the one high level beast that was moving towards Rudra now was not enough to wipe the whole party out in an ambush.
Nonetheless Rudra became extremely vigilant as he started to run his calculations In his mind at superhuman speed.
Being a mastermind himself he thought from the perspective of an attacker who set this ambush up and when he introspected why he would ever try this his heart told him that it would be for reconnaissance.
The enemy wanted to test out Rudra's strength and his moveset which was why he orchestrated this move, however now that Rudra knew that it was a trap he was not going to let the enemy have the satisfaction of seeing his plan succeed.
Rudra gave the call " Karna , Medivh , a large beast is approaching from the west , go about a killometer west from here , change his course and drive him away from the lake.
Neatwit, take your ducks and duck the hell out of that dino ".
Instantly the three elite elders sprung into action as upon reaching the designated location , Medivh started to prepare a strong fire spell whereas Karna unleashed a tier 4 sword attack.
The stegasaurus was busy chasing a few demon hogs and did not notice the arrival of two tiny humans , it was only when Karna unleashed an attack that the beast was alarmed.
RAWRRRR
The dino roared at the incoming attack as it swung it's armoured tail to meet Karna's strike resulting in the beast getting a skin wound on its tail.
However it was Medivh's attack that scared the beast off as the massive raging fire forced it to retreat.
The beast was irritated that its prey was lost and that someone was attacking it as it turned towards the human duo with vigilance and anger contemplating if it should attack or not.
However at this moment a massive juicy duck appeared out of thin air infront of the beast and it said tauntingly to the dino
" QUACK , QUACK QUACK! "

( Meanwhile in the real world , Amelia )
Amelia went inside SMG 's office in the elite towers using her corporate card.
However upon entering the room she was shocked to find packets after packets of drugs both sealed and used as she could not beleive her eyes as to what she was seeing.
The gaming pod's light was on which meant that SMG was gaming inside , hence Amelia decided that it was the perfect opportunity to look at the security footages of the room using SMG 's own computer and find out what was going on.
Amelia played the security footage at 5x speed as she saw days after days of SMG 's routine and a few moments of him abusing drugs.
The part that shocked her the most was seeing him logout of the game just for some quick drug shots before logging back in as most people she was around treated Omega as their absolute pinnacle worship and played it seriously for days at end without a single wink.
To see an elite elder fall to such lows was shocking to Amelia however her initial shock soon turned into anger and disgust as she went out of the room and called the security to install a camera inside and wipe the room clean of all drugs as she watched on her phone waiting for SMG to come out.
Based on his behavioural pattern , Amelia knew that it would take him 25-35 minutes at maximum to come out for a snort and she was spot on with her prediction.
SMG logged out of the game only to be shocked to see that his office was wiped clean of all drugs as his addiction caused him to loose his mind over the situation as he started to rummage through his own cabin.
" Who did this ? Who cleaned my office? " SMG panicked for both losing his drugs and also for the potentially dangerous situation of someone else finding out about his addiction.
SMG half destroyed his own office in anger as he opened the door in anger to storm out only to be stopped in his tracks by Amelia standing beside 20 security guards of the elite division.
5 of them were blackops trained by him while one of them was a tier 4 core member who was on physical duty for the day outside the game. All of them giving SMG a disgusted look.
Amelia hung a small bag of drugs infront of SMG and asked " Looking for this? ".
In this moment SMG felt ashamed , angry and also craving for the drugs at the same time as his mind crashed from the overdose of strong emotions.
" Why did you walk into my office , i thought we were supposed to have privacy " SMG said as calmly as he could reigning in his anger and desire as he tried to mentain his composure.
This was a good sign as Amelia took it positively and concluded that SMG was not beyond saving as she said " Okay , let's talk about that and this bag in my hand in private ".
The security around Amelia thought this was a horrible idea , as they were quick to raise their protests however Amelia waved them off and just said that SMG would never hurt her as she went inside his office to talk about it.
SMG's anxiety only grew as the two sat across each other in private as although he had many arguments to justify his addiction , he knew all of them would make him seem hollow and that there was no salvaging this situation for him from here .
