Ancient Tears BloodLine Chapter 388 Shock!

(From MC's Perspective)

Several hours later,

I walked out of the gravity chamber. When I decided to et Mr Arthur, I noticed there are several notifications popped up on my sci-fi watch.

Then suddenly I wrinkled my eyebrows in confusion, Who could be? But when I opened the sci-fi watch, I found it was a ssage from Mr Arthur and Elder Thornton.

Seeing that, I quickly figured it out. I guess Elder Thornton's friend must have contacted his friend. A wide smile blossod on my face after realising the situation.

The next second, I imdiately head towards Elder Thornton's cabin.

A few minutes later,

"Creak" the door opens.

When the door opened, I quickly walked into the room. I saw Elder Thornton working behind the desk.

I wonder, what type of work he has?

Shaking my head, I walked forward to sit opposite him.

Elder Thornton already felt my arrival. After closing his projection screen, he looked at .

"Zack, I got good news for you," Elder Thornton said with a smile.

Hearing that, I can confirm my assumption was right.

Before I could ask anything, he said, "My friend Ricardo decided to go to Trunulesia Forest after two days."

"So we will leave the day after tomorrow to et him," Elder Thornton added further.

"Day after tomorrow?" I mumbled under my breath. So I got one free day in between. Should I stay at ho tomorrow?

Various thoughts co to mind.

On the other hand, Elder Thornton saw through Zack's thoughts.

He said with a smile on his face, "You don't have to co tomorrow. Take rest at your ho. Then I will send our eting point later."

"Okay," I said.

My mind is a little bit solemn right now. Because I failed to start my soul cultivation. I felt sothing missing, but I don't know what it is.

Seeing the face of Elder Thornton in front of , a thought rose in my heart to ask him about my doubts. But Mr Jonathan clearly warned not to reveal soul cultivation.

This leaves no choice other than to contact Mr Jonathan himself.

On the other hand, Elder Thornton felt its better to tell Zack about the competition. Because at the end of the day everything revolves around Zack.

The purpose of this small competition is to hide Zack's whereabouts and to stop people's attempts from defaming their institute.

"Cough" "Cough"

Elder Thornton coughed twice before start explaining the situation.

5 minutes later,

At first, I was surprised, I never thought Elder Thornton would care for people's criticism. But this plan is extrely important now.

Otherwise, I would be forced to step up. Which I don't want. So I don't have any problem with this competition rather I'm glad.

Then I looked at the Elder and asked, "So I have to fight the winner of this small competition."

To that Elder, Thornton nodded his head.

He replied, "There is no young Trainee Warrior in our city. So you can be at ease. It will be an easy fight."

"Then it's fine. Just make sure that no one uses artefacts in the tournant," I said.

The only thing that can pose threat to is deadly artefacts. Who knows if so rich dude cos up with a high-end artefact, then there is no point in fighting against him.

A quick glint flashes into his eyes.

He also realised there are things which can cause danger to Zack during the fight. Such as high-end artefacts and forbidden pills.

Fortunately, they didn't think of the competition's rules yet. Elder Thornton then said in a solemn tone, "Don't worry, we will take care of it."

Hearing that, I nodded and decided to leave.

"Okay Elder, I'm leaving now," After saying that, I got up from the seat.

After walking out of his cabin, I covered my face with the mask and walked towards the exit.

I thought about eting Mr Arthur earlier. But after considering his ntal state right now. I thoughts it's best to leave him alone.

He was already under a lot of ntal stress because of press people. So he needs so rest right now.

Then a few minutes later, I exited the building.

This ti not a single person can be seen protesting outside. The place was empty and clean. I found the security guard was staring at with a strange gaze.

Then without minding him, I proceeded forward to find an air car. Soon I found the air car at a nearby restaurant.

Then a couple of seconds later, the air car flew towards the destination.

...

The following day,

Crimson Hall,

The headmaster's office.

"Creak," the door opens.

One by one five silhouettes quickly walked into the room. They were Bob Williamson, Austin Boyer, Bradley Reese, Ella Downs and Sallie Mills.

Five of them ca here as per their headmaster's order.

The headmaster of the crimson hall noticed their presence. So he stopped working on the screen and turned towards them.

Just ten minutes ago, he had received a ssage from First Elder. First Elder stated that the deal was made successfully between Red Stone City's City Lord and him.

So now he can implent First Elder's plan.

Various thoughts co to mind.

Then he raised his head to observe five of them. Three male warriors and two female warriors.

If they participate in that small competition, he knows all of them will completely crush their opponents.

When he was thinking, he heard Bob Williamson's voice," Headmaster?"

Hearing that, he retracted his thoughts.

He looked at everyone and said, "First Elder has a small mission for you."

"What?" Austin Boyer was startled.

Not only him but after hearing that everyone's expression tightened. Who doesn't know about their First Elder? He is more famous than their headmaster.

Now entire outside forces were looking for the first elder Casey. Nobody knows where is he right now. And what is he doing?

The entire crimson hall is now shrouded in mystery. Even students like them were clueless about what their organisation is up to now.

A trace of worry appeared on Sallie's face. She rembered what had happened at star tower. It was already a miracle to escape alive from that place.

People say the border conflict happened partially due to crimson hall's plan. And when it cos to planning, there are only two people behind the crimson hall.

The first one is their great elder and the second one is their first elder.

So she is a little scared. She doesn't know what type of mission they have to do now.

At the sa ti, Ella Downs is not good either. She feels sothing bad about the mission. Because she also rembers when was the last ti the sa people gathered together.

It was at the star tower trial. After the star tower trial, everyone stopped eting with each other. Especially, she and Sallie stopped eting Bob, Austin and Bradley.

Apart from Crimson Hall's misadventure, the death of Darius Case caused them to feel wary of each other.

So far crimson hall had found many possible suspects, but in the end, they couldn't able to find the actual killer.

While two girls were sulking about the mission, the other hand their boys has different thoughts about it,

A quick glint flashes into Bob's eyes.

Recently, his family has been asking about the huge competition that is going to happen in a few months.

But unfortunately, their teachers and elders were clueless about it. Unless he ets First Elder in person, it's impossible to know about the competition.

Now he has a chance to et the First Elder in person. Before anyone could digest the information, he opened his mouth to say, "Headmaster, if I complete the mission. Will I have the opportunity to et First Elder?"

His words startled everyone.

This guy? Austin's face completely turned ugly. He was surprised by Bob's quick thinking. "Sure, Bob is cunning, " Austin thought to himself.

Only Bradley Reese remained silent. First, he wants to hear about the mission before making any assumptions.

On the other hand, seeing various reactions from everyone, the headmaster let out a small laugh, "Ha...Ha...Ha..."

"Let first tell you it is not going to be your usual mission," after saying that he began to explain the red stone city's competition.

When five of them heard slightly familiar words, they began to frown.

"Red Stone City, it feels familiar," Bob said.

Bradley and Austin were surprised to hear from Bob. Because they too had this familiar feeling.

At the sa ti, Sallie seems to realise sothing. "Zack is from Red Stone City," She was shocked to the core. She felt has heard sothing wrong, so quickly composed herself.

But after a few minutes,

The place-tuned pin dropped silently.

Sallie felt terrible inside. This mission was aid at Zack Lockwood. The First Elder didn't forget about him after the star tower trial.

Ella Down's eyes glead with surprise and shock. Who doesn't know about Zack Lockwood? Especially, after the star tower trial, everyone nad him as Tier-8 city's genius.

She and Sallie had talked with him.

But she doesn't know how strong has he grown since last ti? She is curious to know about it.
