Chapter 381 Consequences
From Mc's Perspective:
The response team underestimated the danger. It's self-seeking death if they venture inside. At this time, the medical hall's person commented.
"We have to take him back to the academy," the leading wizard from the medical hall said. The condition of the level-6 wizard is worse than everyone had expected.
Right after, the medical hall people shifted the level-6 wizard body back to the aircraft. Then without waiting for us they left the place. Leaving me and the response team alone in this place.
"Can I leave now?" I asked.
Looking down at their face. I understand their trouble. They need to ask for the mission hall's permission to return. But I don't want to wait until then.
The leading wizard from the response team replied, "Wait for a second. I'll ask for instructions."
A frown appeared on my face. These guys need someone to show them the path. But my level is not enough to accompany them. Then I waited for him to finish his talk. The remaining team members were conversing with each other.
They too were not interested in exploring the mine.
A few minutes later,
"Vincent you can leave now," the leading wizard said.
A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. "What about you guys?" I asked out of curiosity.
"The mission hall will send the True Wizards to lead us," he replied.
Hearing that the faces of the team members turned bright. Seeing that I sighed inwardly. Now they can do whatever want. Then pushing down these thoughts, I bid goodbye to them.
I boarded their aircraft to return to the academy.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
After a few hours, I returned to the academy safely. Then I immediately went to my room and took bath.
I changed into comfortable clothes a few minutes later. Lying down on the bed, I begin to recall the incident. Everything happened so fast. At 9first the special mission came out of the blue. Secondly, the collapsed mine turned out to be the lair of monster spiders. Then thirdly the bloodline wizard entered mine in search of me.
Fortunately, today was my day. I didn't encounter the bloodline wizard or the monster. But thinking about the bloodline hall' persistent my heart turned cold. Senior Gilbert was right all along. They didn't plan to give me any opportunity.
But thankfully their plot was exposed. Thanks to the poisoned bloodline wizard. After calming down my heart, I fell asleep without realizing it.
Meanwhile,
When the mission hall came to know about the bloodline wizard Ko. They knew something fishy. But the mission hall is administrative. Their job is to distribute the task to the students they are not the actual wizard hall. So they immediately reported the incident to higher-ups.
The tussle between the bloodline hall and the Sub-taboo hall was known to everyone. So the mission hall wanted to hear further instructions from the higher-ups. Clearly, because of someone's influence, they had assigned the mission to Vincent Carey.
But the bloodline wizard went there without informing them. Any layman can see that the bloodline wizard went after Vincent Carey. So the atmosphere around the mission hall is solemn.
Meanwhile,
The medical hall's wizard already shared the news with the bloodline hall. The news was revealed to a few bloodline wizards. If the news was exposed, the entire bloodline hall have to face the wrath of the higher-ups from the elder house.
But they don't know that someone from the sub-taboo hall took the matter to higher-ups. He was none other than Gilbert Reese. Gilbert Reese was pissed off by bloodline wizard Ko's lowly attempt.
Before going to the central auction he predicted something like this would happen. But 9still, the level-6 wizard's direct participation broke his bottom line. He simply hadn't expected the bloodline wizard to go after Vincent.
Anything could have gone wrong today. Gilbert feels small guilt towards Vincent. His plan was not perfect. He was surprised by the mission hall's involvement. Someone influenced the mission hall from behind the scenes.
Gilbert also reported this specific matter to the elder house. He also believes that this incident might be a blessing in disguise for Vincent. Who knows the higher-ups may speed up the inheritance process because of this incident.
If Vincent manages to accept the inheritance, then he would gain a firm foothold in the academy.
The Taboo Hall,
Mike Curtis is following the development closely. But when he learned that the bloodline wizard was poisoned. His expression turned ugly.
A murderous glint flashes in his eyes. "What a waste," He said to himself. He thinks that the bloodline hall is full of trash. A True House Wizard failed against the Inner House Wizard. If this matter was exposed then the bloodline hall would become a laughing stock.
Curtis regrets his decision to involve with bloodline hall's affairs. Their incompetence caught him by surprise. Now it's a matter of time before the people from the elder house look into this matter.
His greed for shadow stones had corrupted his critical thinking. In desperation, he decided to ask for his teacher's help. Only he can help him in this situation.
Bloodline hall,
The person was ordered to the bloodline wizard Ko was currently missing. He already left the academy when he came to know about task failure.
To avoid the investigation for the next few days, the person decisively made the decision not to come back until the situation resolves.
The green-haired wizard was terrified by the news. Ko's injury came out of the blue. When he learned that his friend was kept in the medical hall. He immediately went there to see.
On the way to the medical hall, he met with many acquaintances. After speaking to them, he heads towards the medical hall.
Medical Hall,
The medical hall is different from other halls. It is more like a small hospital. The healers usually practice treating ill patients.
Those wizards who suffered injury from their mission were usually treated here. So people from all 12 wizard halls can be seen here getting treatment.
There is a separate space for each wizard level. The bloodline wizard Ko was admitted to the level-6 area.
When he arrived at the spot. He immediately inquired about the details. The level-6 healers were currently treating his friend. Upon hearing this he sighed in relief.
Inside the room, the bloodline wizard was lying down on the bed. Two level-6 healers are treating him.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
After one hour, both managed to cure him to some extent. But to save the patient, they have to treat him continuously for the next few days.
The Spider Queen's poison had already penetrated deep into organs. From the treatment, both came to know that the poison is from the level-6 monster.
Then they recorded the information and decided to report it back to the higher-ups.
Meanwhile,
Somewhere inside the academy, powerhouses were meditating in their separate space. They all are powerful wizards responsible for the academy's safety.
But some of them are divided into factions. They only support their respective wizard halls. While few still took care of the overall interest of the academy.
Right now, there is powerful existence that supports the inheritance of late gravity ancestors to be passed on.
After Vincent's appearance in the academy. They are monitoring each one of his movements. They knew everything including latest the incident related to the central auction.
Suddenly, the True House Wizard Gilbert's report reached their ears.
"Cowardly , they don't want to see the late gravity ancestor's inheritance," An old voice commented in the dark.
Though they are separated by spaces. They can still talk to each other.
"Harumph, true house wizards are stepping out of their boundaries," A female voice said with a sigh.
Suddenly much high-level existence began to discuss the issue.
"Oh, a little brat from the taboo hall also involved in this," A wise voice sounded all of a sudden.
Hearing that everyone became quiet. None of them expected to see the involvement of Taboo Hall.
"What should we do next?" The female voice asked again. All the powerhouses are staying in their dark space. But they are communicating mentally. So their appearance was covered in shadows.
"That kid has managed to escape this time. If we delay any longer, that kid might have to face a similar threat next time," The old voice said.
"Then we should talk with the supreme. If he says then no one will deny it," An old female voice made a suggestion all of a sudden.
The word supreme made everyone silent. He is none other than but level-10 wizard and the current dean of the Yellow River Academy. The dean is busy with something important. Unless something important they don't want to disturb him. But today's incident made them realize the short-sightedness of other factions.
Then several voices discussed again. In the end, everyone unanimously agreed to take up this issue to the supreme.
