Chapter 905: Collecting resources Chapter 905: Collecting resources From MC’s Perspective: After a few more minutes of intense discussion, we finally wrapped up our meeting and left the office.
The atmosphere was heavy with the implications of our conversation.
As we reached my floor, I hesitated for a moment before turning to ask the question that had been weighing on my mind.
“Teacher, when do you think they would recruit me?” My voice was steady, but inside, I was anxious.
Lowell’s eyes flickered with understanding.
It was clear that he knew exactly what I was referring to-the prestigious and elusive Star University.
A place where only the most exceptional talents were invited, a place that had been on my mind for a long time.
He responded with a calm but firm tone, “We don’t know the situation on the other side.
Just focus on your breakthrough.
I’ll handle those families at the right time.” His words were reassuring, yet they carried an unspoken weight.
Lowell McClain was not a man to be underestimated, and his influence over the powerful families was undeniable.
I nodded in agreement, feeling a sense of relief.
We spoke for a few more minutes, discussing plans and strategies, before he finally took his leave.
As the door closed behind him, I felt a renewed sense of purpose.
I headed straight to the essence chamber, ready to dive back into cultivation.
— Meanwhile, news of Lowell McClain’s return spread like wildfire among the influential families.
The Grage Family, along with several others, knew what his presence meant.
They had no choice but to prepare for his demands, for if they didn’t, they would soon find themselves on the wrong side of his wrath.
Anticipating the inevitable, they received a call from the Federation Head.
The order was clear: all required resources were to be submitted by the next morning.
The directive was non-negotiable.
Several family heads gritted their teeth in frustration.
They knew there was no room for excuses.
Any attempt to resist or delay would not only bring the ire of the Federation Head but also provoke Lowell McClain-a man rumored to be on the verge of becoming a Gold Mark Warrior, a level of power that was both feared and respected.
Desperation set in as the families scrambled to gather the necessary resources.
Among them, the Grage Family worked tirelessly to find the rare and valuable items needed, particularly those that would aid in strengthening my body.
They knew that failure was not an option.
— The following day, representatives from the various families arrived at the Federation Headquarters.
Tension was thick in the air as they met with Federation Head Ben, each hoping to avoid any further trouble.
They handed over the storage rings filled with the meticulously gathered resources, their faces betraying the anxiety that plagued them.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
Federation Head Ben accepted the offerings with a stern nod, but his eyes held a promise of consequences.
“Since you’ve provided the resources, there will be no further scrutiny,” he assured them, though his tone suggested otherwise.
The representatives, visibly relieved, left the headquarters.
They were unaware that their relief was short-lived.
Federation Head Ben had no intention of letting them off the hook so easily.
He had already promised Lowell and me that these families would face consequences soon enough.
— Back in my training chamber, I was deep in my gravity training when my communicator buzzed.
Seeing that it was the Federation Head calling, I quickly deactivated the gravity field.
The oppressive force that had filled the room vanished in an instant.
I answered the call.
“Zack, come to the office,” Federation Head Ben’s voice was calm but firm.
Excitement coursed through me.
I had a feeling I knew what this was about.
I quickly showered and changed into fresh clothes, anticipation building with every moment.
When I arrived at the top floor, the doors of the lift slid open with a soft chime.
I stepped out and made my way to the Federation Head’s office, my steps quick and purposeful.
As I entered, I saw Ben standing behind his desk, a collection of storage rings laid out before him.
“Zack, you’re here.
Come and take these storage rings.
They’ve been provided by the families,” Ben said with a satisfied smile.
I couldn’t help but return the smile.
“Thank you, elder.” He nodded, his eyes gleaming with approval.
“Don’t worry, just focus on your training.
I believe you’ll hear some good news in the coming days.” I understood his implication and felt a surge of determination.
After collecting the storage rings, I thanked him once more and left the room, eager to examine the treasures I had received.
However, before indulging in the resources, I knew I had to inform my teacher.
— Back in my quarters, I quickly called Lowell, informing him of the latest developments.
He instructed me to use the resources and attempt a breakthrough immediately.
His confidence in my abilities was evident, and it fueled my resolve.
After ending the call, I changed into my practice attire and returned to the essence chamber.
The air was thick with the scent of energy-rich materials, and I could hardly contain my excitement as I powered up the chamber and set the parameters.
I sat cross-legged on the platform, reaching into one of the storage rings.
The contents were staggering-piles of resources, including precious attribute stones.
Among them, I found a collection of lightning attribute resources that made my heart skip a beat.
The families had even included materials tailored to my specific abilities.
Suppressing the excitement bubbling within, I continued to inspect the other items.
Rare herbs, potent fruits, and a variety of high-grade pills filled the ring.
But something felt off.
These resources seemed too perfect, too well-suited for my needs.
A hint of suspicion crept into my mind.
I decided to check the other storage rings.
If there was anything amiss, I would need to alert my teacher immediately.
The stakes were too high to take any chances.
Then I started to check other resources one by one.
