Red Moon Tower,
Teresa York revealed the news about Crimson Hall's destruction without hiding the truth.
"How could it be?" Ella Downs widened her eyes in disbelief. She had expected something bad. But this news was certainly beyond her belief.
"Destruction," Sallie uttered in the loss. What about her family and friends? And the nearby shopkeepers and neighbors.
An entire city has been relying on Crimson Hall's existence. So what happened now?
Sallie and Ella have similar concerns regarding their family. They were afraid something bad happened to them.
Teresa York saw through their moods. She recalled the humiliation she suffered at the hands of that figure.
That figure was closer to the lightning kid, Zack Lockwood. And the Crimson Hall's elder has died under the hands of Zack Lockwood. She strongly feels the destruction of the Crimson Hall is related to them.
"Elder, who is behind the attack?" At this time, Sallie opened her mouth to ask.
Ella Downs turned toward Teresa York as well.
Feeling the gazes from two. Teresa York said, "It's not yet confirmed who is behind the attack."
"But we had watched your elder die under the hands of Zack Lockwood."
The atmosphere becomes pin-drop silence.
Sallie knew somewhere in her heart that it might be related to Zack. But she doesn't know about Zack's actual background.
In her opinion, Hansen Institute was not capable of doing anything against Crimson Hall.
Ella Downs seems to be dumbstruck as well.
Teresa's eyes flickered with a slight glint. She doesn't know how the girls are going to react. But she is against the Army Federation.
Like it or not, these girls are going to stand against Zack Lockwood in the future.
....
From MC's Perspective,
Saw Scale Viper Academy,
Last day before the first class,
Back in the room. I got up from the ground after the cultivation. When I looked internally inside my dantian. Apart from the vast purple essence, there were also some green spots.
The green spots were nothing but the essence of the healing element. After the trip to the ruin, I didn't get much time to spend in cultivation.
Considering the big competition on the way at that time. But here, I had an entire day to spend time in cultivation.
The healing scripture was not that simple. I wasn't able to guess the rank. Considering it was recovered from the ruin. I believe that the healing scripture rank is close to the lightning scripture.
10 A.M
Seeing the timing, my eyes gleamed with a twinkle. Yesterday, I received the schedule from the administration. I was assigned to a special element class.
Most of the schedules were similar to that one in Hansen Campus. Most of the classes were directed to combat training.
Apart from the normal schedule. Warriors can also attend refining class and alchemy class. I don't know whether I had talent in this category.
The Blood Element Method and Healing Method seem to cover all of my time.
"Sigh"
I let out a sigh before giving up the thoughts. Right now, I need to focus on getting lightning resources. I need to raise my elite-level cultivation.
Meanwhile,
Deep inside the building. Several people were seated for a roundtable discussion. All of them were heads of factions who were responsible for guiding the warriors in the A- Grade Institute.
Right now everyone is here for an important meeting.
Suddenly, an old woman appeared in the main seat. She appears to be sixty years old. But her real age is unknown. She has long white hair and black eyes.
Her body is covered with a black robe. She is 6ft tall in height. Her skin tone is fair. But all of them were covered in black robes.
Her name is Rebecca Smith, SSS- Elite Water Elemental Warrior. She is the dean of Saw Scale Viper Academy.
Right after her appearance, everyone stood up from their seats. These people were heads of different factions in the Academy.
For example, a fiery old man with crimson hair. Franklin Madden, SS- Elite Fire Elemental Warrior. He is the vice dean of the academy. And he is also the current head of the Flame Faction.
Similarly, other Faction Elders have the SS-Elite level cultivation base.
But there was one empty seat.
Rebecca's old eyes immediately caught the detail. When she glances around. She found the absence of a Special Elemental Faction Head.
Her mouth twitched. She had instructed everyone to attend this meeting without any absence. But that person from the Special Element Faction seems to be in retreat.
Sighing, she signaled everyone to sit. Seeing her, others understood the mood. This was not the first time the Special Element Faction Head was absent from the meeting.
Meanwhile, Franklin gave a cold snort in his heart. He is the Vice-dean but he can't put air in front of the Dean. But that guy from Special Faction is in retreat.
Thinking about that person's courage, a wave of anger rose in his heart.
"Dean, you should reprimand Carlos," Franklin began to complain. But before he could finish his sentence. He was stopped by the Dean.
Rebecca easily saw through his thoughts. She knows it's nothing but rivalry between Carlos and Franklin.
Seeing that Dean is getting impatient. Franklin stopped talking and sat back in his seat. Rebecca then glanced at everyone before sitting on her main chair.
Before her, information about Zack Lockwood is placed. She picked it up and began to go through the details. It's been three days since Zack's arrival.
But Zack hadn't left his room at all. Except for having food and casual walking. Most of the time Zack was cooking up his room. He wasn't aware that his every movement was being monitored.
Rebecca has the exact routine information of Zack. After reading the document, she placed it on the table. But in her heart, she muttered, "Is that kid cautious?" Her eyes flickered with a slight glint.
The information about Zack is known to only a few people including her, Carlos, and a few ancestors of the academy.
But something unexpected happened back then. Now the information is known to everyone including the other five academies.
Right now, she wants to officially disclose the news to others.
"Alright, I want to share some good news with you, "After saying that she added further, "We got one new student enrolled in our A- Grade Institute."
"His name is Zack Lockwood. Almost 15 years old. Elite Level- Lightning elemental warrior."
Gasp
When she dropped the news, a few people exclaimed in surprise. While a strange glint flashes in others' eyes.
"So it's true," Franklin's face turned ugly. A few days ago, shocking news reached everyone's ears.
But he couldn't confirm it. The person who went for the recruitment was not his own. But hearing from the Dean herself.
Franklin confirmed it now. He knows the importance of the lightning warrior. Now, the Special Element Faction has gained another future powerhouse.
Franklin didn't feel happy at all. In the whole academy, the Flame faction got the highest strength. Followed by other Elemental Factions.
But the Special Element Faction has the least members.
The commotion took some seconds to quiet down.
Rebecca raised her head and looked at everyone. She knows that the news might be shocking to a few people.
"Ahem, Zack's information was already learned by the other five academies. And I'm pretty sure they don't want him to live"
"If there is a chance, I don't think anyone would hesitate twice to kill this kid," When she said this expression everyone turned solemn.
Lightning element? How rare? They can understand the worry of the Dean. Because the Special Element Warriors got more chances to enter the Inner Post than others.
For the lightning warrior, it is 100% certain that he will join the Inner Post as well. Until then, everyone has to protect that kid. If nothing happens, Zack will be a strong pillar for the academy in the future.
The Dean saw everyone's mood. She said, "That's right, we need to protect that kid."
"In the future, we need to be wary of other academy's schemes. I don't want that kid to fall in a mid-way," She said in a cold tone.
But in her heart, she is thinking of something else. She didn't tell everyone that she knows the person behind that kid.
And the background of the person is terrifying. In her view, Zack is already part of Inner Post. The ancestor had some connection with that person as well.
What she knows is Zack will only study for two years here. After that, he will go to the Inner Post.
Rebecca fears that if anything bad befalls that kid, the whole academy would face serious consequences. Her ancestor had instructed her to specifically take care of that kid.
That's why she had arranged this meeting. Then one after another people shared their opinion. Some wanted to tighten security. While others wanted to reduce frequent academy exchanges.
As long as there is minimal communication between the six academies. The possibility of information leak out would be reduced. And the schemes of other academies can be stopped in this way.
