Roderick panicked when he saw Jared's Focus Pill glow increasingly brighter.
He mustered all of his strength and unleashed his spiritual sense to help his Focus Pill absorb it, but he was still unable to keep up with Jared's speed.
Suddenly, the look in Roderick's eyes grew intense as he subtly pinched his fingers and unleashed a faint aura into his surroundings.
As Jared was standing the closest to Roderick, he detected that aura immediately.
There was a force within the aura that kept sucking away Jared's spiritual sense.
Jared sneered as a ray of golden light flashed within his consciousness field. Like a rat that had seen a cat, Roderick's aura disappeared almost instantly.
Although Roderick's trick wasn't able to harm Jared, the same could not be said about the other alchemists.
They all began to panic as they realized their spiritual sense was draining rapidly, and there was nothing they could do to stop it from happening.
After Roderick finished absorbing everyone else's spiritual sense, his Focus Pill started shining brightly as well.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, the Focus Pills of three out of the five alchemists exploded, and their spiritual sense dispersed instantly.
Only Jared's and Roderick's Focus Pills were still glowing brightly.
As the time ran out, Jared and Roderick were holding their respective Focus Pills.
The appearance and texture of the Focus Pills looked fairly identical, so the only way to compare them was through the spiritual sense contained within said Focus Pills.
“You can't win even if you use such dirty tricks!” Jared said.
“Is that so? We shall see...” Roderick replied with a cunning smile.
Although he had no idea why Jared's spiritual sense was still so powerful even though his consciousness field was damaged, Roderick had a backup plan ready.
