Chapter 490 You Can Open Your Eyes Now
Since George hit nothing but thin air, the momentum he had built up caused him to slam into a big tree.
Fortunately for George, not many saw the embarrassing outcome because of the fog.
Holding his injured arm, George finally figured out what was going on when he saw the seemingly ferocious tiger once again. “I get it now, Mr. Snyder. These tigers are just illusions; they’re not real! That’s why I couldn’t hit it.”
Then, the man hurriedly ordered the others, “Everyone, close your eyes and cover your ears. No matter what you hear, don’t open your eyes unless I tell you to.”
Even though Jayden did not know exactly how the illusions worked, he decided to issue the same command to his people.
Everyone in the group was confused by the seemingly ridiculous order but did as they were told anyway.
After glancing around, Jared opened his mouth and sucked the thick fog into his belly. Even the vicious-looking beasts could not escape the strong pull.
It did not take long before Jared restored the forest to the way it was. However, everyone around him still had their eyes shut and ears covered, afraid to move a muscle.
“You can open your eyes now,” stated Jared calmly.
Slowly, the people opened their eyes and realized that the fog and the beasts had disappeared. It was as if nothing had happened at all.
“Do you believe me now, dad? I was right about Jared!” said Tessa proudly when everything was right as rain again.
“I’m sure he just figured it out sooner because he came into contact with the beasts before I did, Ms. Snyder. I knew they were illusions too as soon as I tried to hit one,” argued George.
