Sky Tower,
Casey broke out in cold sweat. He didn't know about that brat's awakened element. Not only that, no other organizations know about this specific information.
Feeling the cold gaze from the super elite warrior, he knew it was impossible to remain silent anymore.
"Ahem, sir. We don't know about that brat's element. Like I had said earlier, the brat is shrouded in secrets," He replied in a solemn tone.
Hearing that, Harvey Kim's face turned ugly. He waved his hand slightly but the force immediately impacted Casey.
Pfff!
First Elder Casey suffered a small blow from the impact. His heart is boiling in anger. He didn't dare to show any discomfort on his face.
He lowered his head and retreated backward. None of the super-elite warriors showed any pity to him. Harvey Kim then glanced at Mike Smith before turning toward the screen.
Everyone knows that Mike Smith is not going to spill any secrets.
A trace of disappointment flashes in Teresa's eyes. But she knows there is no point in talking about it.
...
(From MC's perspective)
The following day,
I reached the outskirts of the dark swamp. Before going deep into the area, I decided to set up a tent there.
A few minutes later,
I walked into my tent and sat cross-legged on the mat. From the last day, I have got this peculiar feeling that someone is watching my movements.
It's quite possible that my movements attracted their attention. Day by day, the number of seed candidates is dying large numbers.
So it's normal for survivors to be noticed by the people. Thinking about it, a wry smile appeared on my face.action
Sometimes later,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI walked out and headed straight toward the dark swamp.
Roar!
Just after I got closer, I saw two hybrid crocodiles fighting against each other. The monster is double in size compared to normal wilderness croc monsters.
The two croc monsters were rolling sideways causing a disturbance. The shock wave swept away nearby trees and rocks.
Seeing that, I didn't hurriedly jump right into it. Rather I spread my consciousness slowly around these surroundings.
Apart from two croc monsters, nothing caught my attention. But suddenly I feel a thing in my heart. My intuition is telling me that I'm missing something.
And this feeling is getting more. Then I used my perceptual ability to scan the surroundings once again. But I furrowed my eyebrows a few minutes later.
Still, nothing caught my attention. Then I shifted my attention back to the crock monster. Right now the croc monsters were worn out completely.
Both the monsters have suffered gruesome injuries after fighting against each other. Yet, neither of them was retreating backward.
Well, this gives me a good opportunity to kill these two monsters. Then without thinking further, I barged into their territory.
My appearance is immediately noticed by two monsters. These two crocs made some noise in anger. But I remained indifferent to it. In a blink of an eye, I reached the closest monster.
The croc widened and opened its massive jaw to take a bite. But I quickly evaded it and stomped heavily on top of its body.
Crack!
Bones crushed from the blow. Right after, the monster made a noise under agonizing pain. The other crock monster felt a huge threat from the newcomer.
It immediately retreated backward to escape.
Seeing that, I decided to end the monster quickly. I raised my fist to punch the monster's head.
Pfff!
My punch easily tore through the monster's head causing a wide hole. The hole looks small considering the monster's massive head.
I didn't retract my hands back. Rather, I released a few lightning arcs from my palms.
Boom!
Right after, the huge head of the croc monster was blown into pieces. The brain matter mixed with blood splattered all around the ground.
Tud!
Then the massive body of the crock monster dropped dead on the ground.
At the same time, I turned in the opposite direction and decided to give another croc monster a chase. But before I could do that, my senses were alarmed greatly. It warned me to move away from the spot immediately.
"Lightning Phantom Technique," I uttered. The next second, like a flash I disappeared from the spot and reached my tent in a blink of an eye.
Right after, I stopped using the lightning movement technique. The purple arcs released from my body are very eye-catching.
Now everything has returned to normal. But I couldn't help but curse at myself. The dangerous feeling was so great that I was pushed to use the lightning movement technique.
I hope the teacher won't scold me later. Shaking my head, my attention shifted back to the dark swamp again. I can still see the carcass of a massive croc monster.
But what's with the dangerous feeling before? It can cause danger to an elite-level warrior like me. There is something ominous there. It can even slip away from perception.
My expression turned solemn after that. I immediately thought of Crimson Hall. I knew they were cruel. But I don't think they can cause a threat to elite-level warriors.
So whatever happening in the dark swap is something else. Should I inform the teacher about this? A quick glint flashes in my eyes. The event is going to end in a couple of hours.
There is no point in making a fuss about it. Besides, apart from me, there is a slight possibility of other people coming here.
If anyone comes here, they have to cross a giant crock monster before getting into the swamp. So I don't think there will be casualties because of the sudden change.
Then a hint of determination appeared in my eyes. "It's best to leave this place and go back to the southern point. I have enough monster cores in my collection. There is no point in roaming around here, " I muttered to myself.
Then I began to remove the tent.
...
Meanwhile,
Sky Tower,
A few minutes ago,
After the last episode, no one paid attention to Zack's movements except Mike Smith. From time to time, Teresa would take a glance. Apart from that everyone is focussing on picking up their candidate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, Mike watches Zack's sudden movements. Looking at it, he realizes that the kid is going to fight against the croc monster. But those two croc monsters were not ordinary monsters either.
Like other hybrids, these two crocs monsters also belong to the same category. Does he want to see what he is going to do?
Coincidentally, Teresa's gaze also fell on Zack's screen. Seeing that Zack is going to confront the crock monster. She paused her gaze. Other seed candidates are either dying or fleeing from the monsters in desperation and fear.
But Zack is doing the opposite. He has the strength to deal with all the monsters. So she became interested in watching Zack's next move.
At this time, no one is paying attention to Zack's screen apart from these two. Even Casey from the crimson hall is focusing on his warriors.
Suddenly, a quick change takes place on Zack's screen. Seeing the massive head of the monster blown into pieces. A hint of surprise flashes in Mike Smith's eyes.
He is impressed by that kid's strong physique again but he failed to notice the small purple arcs in Zack's palm.
Teresa is stunned as well. But her brain immediately works to find some answer. How come a massive head blows into pieces? What kind of force caused it?
She squinted her eyes again. She knows Zack's got the strength to kill that monster. But to blast the monster's head into pieces. It requires force or elemental power to do that.
She now confirms something in her heart. Which is that Zack used his elemental power now. She found something which even Mike failed to notice.
"What kind of elemental power is that?" She said in her heart.
When she was pondering, the next scene made her pale with fright.
"What?" She got up from the seat the next second.
Her sudden exclamation caught everyone off guard.
She just saw purple arcs disappearing in flash. And in a blink of an eye, Zack appeared back in his tent.
"Purple flash?"
"Purple?"
"Isn't it a lightning element?" She asked in her heart.
At the same time, the other super elite warriors stood up from their seats after the disturbance.
"Teresa, what happened?" Harvey Kim asked in a solemn tone. They all are super elite warriors. So what can cause her to stand up with fright?
Apart from the clueless four people, only Mike Smith knew what had happened. He immediately broke out in cold sweat. "So, Zack is a lightning warrior," He exclaimed in his heart.
His earlier doubts were replaced by confirmation now. All other events that happened back in the academy between the higher-ups suddenly make sense now.
No wonder that big man personally came here to protect his student. But unfortunately this b!tch noticed something. What to do now? He takes a glance at Teresa before his gaze falls on Zack.
He knows Zack is sensible. So what caused him to release the lightning element? He believes something must have happened.
