Gungnir dashed back to the room and looked the scene left behind.
All the juniors that were in the path of the attack were killed. When he registered who actually got killed, his heart felt cold by several degrees. This is a worst case scenario that they never even thought off.
Except for Donner and a couple of others, the rest of the first graders are all from notable backgrounds. One of them is called the Odinson family. Just from that one could guess that they are indeed very special.
Their degree of influence and strength was not less than that of the Vlachous family.
That kid died today right under his watch and in the hands of a Grade 4 student. The thing that made this even more worse is that the guy that launched the attack is from a different family that directly rivaled the Odinson family.
They were never on good terms even though both are Thor Devouts.
They always had rising tensions and only sustained with barely delicate balance. Now with just this one thing, Gungnir is sure that the balance is broken and all the pent up tension will explode.
He looked at Bloody Chariot and said.
"Take care of them right now. Make sure that everyone else is alright."
He said those words and flew away in the direction of the hub.
A minute later, Gungnir landed in front of the hub. His eyes cold as ice. One could almost sense the drop in the temperature of the surroundings.
"Come out Joker."
His voice was calm, yet also loud. His aura raged. Showing off his Peak Stage Divine Plane Consummate cultivation. There is no response from inside the hub.
Gungnir didn't ask again and instead charged his divine energy into the spear. The energy was a bit foggy, white like snow and glowing with that ethereal nature. As if it was gathered from the stars themselves.
*BAM*
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe put his foot forward and got into a stance. The ground cracked underneath and he threw the spear at the Hub.
The sound of the spear travelling through the air while leaving the ground beneath it in a trail of destruction made everyone within the city to be on the edge. They could feel that energy all the way from there.
*BOOM*
With an explosive sound it clashed into the wall around the Hub, but the wall was destroyed immediately. However, as soon as the wall was gone, it started regenerating slowly. The spear then flew towards the door of the hub which was closed.
But before it could reach.
*BOOM*
An explosive shockwave, came from the door and the spear with all its momentum came to an immediate halt. It dropped on the ground like a twig.
Gungnir frowned and reached out with his hand, the spear raised from the ground and was about to go back to him, but a condensed wind streak captured the spear and made it stay in the air. The force Gungnir pulling the spear was completely negated by the force of the wind.
Gungnir was surprised.
That wind attack was gave off a familiar vibe. But he is more surprised by the fact that Joker is making a move on him without even appearing in front of his eyes. At least that is what he believed.
As he was about to make a move, two objects flew out of the hub and levitated in front of Gungnir. They are metal puppets. Both birds.
One of them is a model that Gungnir is very familiar with it. The other one looked very similar and familiar to the first one, but there is some obvious difference in its style of making.
From the familiar puppet, a voice was heard.
"You are barking at the wrong tree, my friend. If you want to find out who attacked, you might want to check out the extra puppet that I sent.
After investigating yourself, you can come back here."
Gungnir frowned, but he still took both the puppets. Only then did the spear came flying towards him.
He went back into the city.
Meanwhile, inside the Hub, Sam is sitting in a chair. He is sweating bullets as he stayed limp on the chair. He was panting heavily and the veins on his head are clearly visible. They were ready to explode.
He hurriedly took out a potion and gulped it down to stabilize his racing heart.
Right now, the two attacks were controlled by him.
Of course they were not really his own attacks, but the attacks stolen from the Elders that came to hub before and practiced.
Sam used his resonance technology and the energy absorption gear that everyone is using to store the attacks of the elders and he can later control it. However, to use them better, he still has to control the attacks himself.
If it was just some attacks of the Divine plane Pre-transcendence and Divine Plane transcendence, or even the initial stage of Divine Plane Consummation, the mental energy of all the specters and souls that are combined in the spirit of the hub, will be enough.
With his own brain into the addition, he should be able to control them very well.
However, the attacks that came now are of Late stage and Peak stage of Divine plane consummation.
Even with all the tech in the world that Sam could create, it will be very difficult to fight against them.
Not just physically or mentally, even the hub might not be able to withstand it too much.
After all, the materials that are being used to hold those massive attacks are not exactly the best in existence.
Even though Sam managed to rip of several families and managed to gain a lot of resources from them through which he strengthened the hub, it is still impossible for him to create something of perfection, without actually using his own hands.
It look a lot of out of him to defend against those.
Sam stabilized himself before he went out of that room and travelled down to the core of the hub.
It is one of the energy containers of the hub. Right now, it was glowing like bright moon, however there is a small crack on it. A very small one that is almost as thin as a hairline.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe connected himself to the energy core with his palm and started channeling that energy. After around a half an hour, the crack started recovering. The core is back to normal.
Sam however is exhausted again.
Meanwhile, inside the Zeus academy.
In a special room.
Bloody Chariot and Gungnir are standing there. The puppet that was similar to the ones distributed by the hub is floating in the air as it gave out a projection of a video.
Another puppet is on the table, being dismantled by one of the artisans based on the instructions in the video. The artisan is well versed in both formations and puppet making and his eyes are getting brighter and brighter with every single second. After some time, he finished the dismantling process to find a small rectangular crystal.
There are some characters engraved on it. Characters that they are not familiar with. They have never see something like that before.
Along with the crystal, there is a strip of metal inside. Even that metal is completely unfamiliar. The artisan dismantling that puppet could considered one of the best in the world. He is the person in charge of the artisan department of the Zeus academy and has seen a lot of stuff across the realms, but even he hasn't seen it. The composition of that metal or alloy is totally new to him.
"You are saying, you haven't even seen any records in all your experience that talked about some metal like this?" Bloody Chariot asked with an incredulous face. He couldn't even believe what the artisan said.
"I am exactly saying that. And from what I can observe, the metal piece is not just some random thing in this puppet. There are some intricate engravings on granular level. I don't know what medium was used to engrave those things, but it is something that I have never seen before and it should contain important clues.
As for the characters on that crystal. I don't know what they are as well.
But this level of creation is certainly very high. I am not even sure, if I could make a design like that from the scratch. Even though it falls short to the puppet given by the hub, it is still right up there.
If this blue print gets out, there is a huge chance of a war happening."
"Then what can we gain from this if you can't say anything." Bloody Chariot asked.
"Oh, there is definitely some information. The big humanoid puppet you got? That and this bird puppet are of similar construction. Also, there is something else."
"What?"
"Do you remember the puppets that are being awarded in the revived pocket dimensions? They are of the same build as well. There is a great chance that are all of them are made at the same place and even by the same person."
