章 956: How Utterly Refreshing

Jake and his friends located the new site of Cekt's lab a short while later. As he'd suspected, the alien had relocated to another back alley, keeping his whereabouts shrouded from the constant stream of individuals who sought his services from dawn till dusk.

In its former state, the lab's entrance was a tiny door, more akin to a cat flap than an entryway designed for civilized humans. It was wedged between two incongruous metallic box-shaped residences, rendered invisible by an illusion.

Fortunately, Cekt had given his disciples permission to locate him through their Shadow Guide, saving them from a fruitless search that would've been as futile as seeking a needle in a haystack.

Jake had braced himself for another of his master's tricks, perhaps another cat flap, but even by overestimating the old gremlin, he was left agape as he watched his Shadow Guide vanish into a sewer grate.

'Fuck! Does he really have to go to such lengths to hide?' Jake cursed inwardly.
