Ancient Tears BloodLine

(From MC Perspective)

At Zack's inn,

It's not even ten minutes after the discussion. Elder Thornton received notification from the Star Tower Management. After glancing at the information, He learnt about his mission.

"I have been asked to be stationed at the Western Fort" Looking at Zack, He told him about the mission.

I understand Elder's worry. He has been feeling guilt towards me. Who would have expected such a thing to happen? Shaking my head, I said, "Elder, Don't worry about me. I don't think they will foolishly attack Star Tower. Then it will lead to all out war."

Then I added further, "Since, I broke through. There is no urgency to return back home. Later, I will explain to my family about it. We can leave safely after everything calms down. Doesn't matter how long it takes. We should prioritize saving our lives first.

Right now, the safest place for me is the star tower. I wonder if there are any training places out there. I'm looking forward to testing my current strength.

Elder Thornton smiled hearing that then he commented, " I'm leaving now, you can go back by yourself. In case of emergency don't hesitate to contact me. " After saying that he took his leave.

Seeing his disappearing back I sighed. I wonder about Mr. Jonathan, what is he doing right now? If it were normal circumstances, I would have contacted him. Right now, I don't know whether to contact him or not.

Even Elder Thornton seems to have contacted him a couple of days ago. I hope everything is okay on his side. After sorting out my thoughts, I begin to pack up things. Some time later, I became ready to vacate the inn.

All those personal stuff were placed in my storage ring. There was no stuff left behind. After making sure one more. I bid goodbye to this inn and headed straight towards the Star Tower.

There's only a couple of days left before the end of the competition. I wonder what's the situation inside the Star Tower. Just as I'm pondering on the way. I heard a small commotion ahead.

Hearing that I quickened my pace. After a few breaths, I found the source of noise. Few people tried to rob the old couple in broad daylight. "Madness" I felt infuriating seeing the situation.

Three Initial Stage Special Trainee Warriors begin to surround the old age couple by demanding something from them. The old couple looked frightened. But both of them wore a luxurious dress.

Suddenly, they halted their actions after hearing my footsteps.

"Boy, Stay out the way. If you don't want to be crippled" One of the Warriors begins to threaten me with his words.

Heading that I sneered, Without replying to them I made a move.

I exploded with my full strength. A crackling sound can be heard from my fists.

The leader of this group is one who is asking something from an old age couple. Now, He look frightened. He couldn't even sense kid Strength.

"Boom"

As my fists landed on his chest, like a broken kite he rolled backwards several feats. The other two warriors look like frightened chickens. They begin to flee in panic.

Seeing that I didn't chase after them, I helped the old couple to stand up properly.

"Thank you! Young Man" the old woman politely thanked Zack. While on the other hand she supported her husband.

Seeing that I gestured to them not to do that, I asked, "What's going on here? How come there is a movement of Patrol Guards here?"

I feel quite strange, usually this street is crowded. And there has always been a team of Patrol Guards here. Even after the emergency law is in place. The Patrol Guards still did their job as usual. But now I haven't even found a single warrior so far.

Hearing his question the old couples reacted slowly, the old woman commented, "The Strength of the Patrol Guards have been halved lately. That's why people dare to rob in broad daylight."

Don't tell me the City Lord directed some of his warriors to the front line. I wondered. Well, looking at this place that seems to be the case. Situation is getting worse as days go by. Unless they stamp the enemy sooner, the situation inside the city becomes Inhabitable.

Shaking my head, I bid goodbye to this old couple. Those pests had already run away from here. So, there is no danger again to this old couple.

Along the way, I can see the impacts of the news sites. Most of the shops were closed. Not many people can be seen around here, it's even worse than the normal day under emergency law. Fortunately, those inn were not cruel enough to drive me away.

Some time later,

I reached the premise of Star Tower Zone. I Saw new participants coming out of the Star Tower Zone. Seeing that I quickened my pace towards the management office. The building happens to be at the entrance of the Star Tower Zone.

Only if you want to visit Star Tower, you need to go deep inside. I don't think they will let me visit Star Tower again. Shaking my head, I arrived in front of the Admin room.

Right now not many people are around this premise. So they didn't recognize Zack's identity. Besides, everyone is busy with their own thoughts. Even if someone recognizes Zack, they won't be in a mood to appreciate it.

But at this time there were some people working inside the admin office. Right now, someone from the admin office noticed Zack's presence. He is none other than head of this management office, Bill Floyd.

When he clearly saw Zack's face. Hints of surprise flashes in his eyes. He already received notification from Elders to assist Zack Lockwood. He will be staying in their guest house for a while.

After recognizing him he went ahead to receive him.

"Hmm" I noticed someone is coming towards me. He appears to be a Peak Special Trainee Warrior.

"Hello, Mr. Zack! I'm the Head of this management office here." Bill Floyd greeted him with a smile.

Before Zack could say anything he further added, " Elders already informed about the situation. Let's go to the guest house."

Hearing that I nodded and didn't interrupt him. Soon we walked through different paths and reached the guest house area. There were few houses that appeared to be constructed side by side.

He led me towards the first house. After saying a few words he left the place. Then I begin to arrange a few things. I don't know why this staff seems to be in a hurry, I frowned upon realizing that.

…

At the eastern fort,

Elder Smith failed to defend his body from those attacks. As his body is pierced by those water arrows. He coughed up a few bloods, "It's over!"

The other hand, the leader Palmer smiled seeing his state. But he didn't stop midway. He continues to rain down the target with his attacks.

"Ha…Ha…Ha... It's very satisfying to watch his state" Palmer mumbled under his breath.

He felt it was a matter of time before some other forces came here. He needs to quicken his activity. He signals his men to go near him and check his pulse.

The other hand, Elder Smith's entire body is bloodied. His body is littered with bloody holes. He held the last straw of his life. His consciousness is slowly fading away. Just as his body falls down to the ground.

Palmer's subordinates went near him to check his pulse. After sensing the slipping vitality, they informed their leader.

Hearing that Palmer smiled, he told them to end him while he was busy checking around the premises. He wants to make sure that there is no other force hiding here and planning just like they did.

But before he could react,

"Presumptuous"

A loud voice echoes the surrounding area. Palmer shuddered for no reason hearing that voice.

"Who is it?" Palmer yelled.

He suspects there is another gang hiding around this area. So, he prepares for a battle.

The other hand, when his subordinate tries to end Elder Smith's life. A horrifying aura pasted them to the ground. There is not even a bone left.

Suddenly, a silhouette put a high grade healing pill inside Elder Smith 's smith. A warm current courses through his body slowly stopping the slipping away vitality. His deep injuries were beginning to recover slowly.

The Silhouette is none other than Elder Ross.

The other hand Palmer's expression discolored as he noticed the state of his subordinate. He knew instantly the opponent was Peak Elite Warrior. Without giving him any chance to attack, He made his move.

Several water arrows were fired at him in a blink of an eye.

"Harumph" Elder Ross snorted immediately. He took Elder Smith's body to the safest place. Those water arrows land in the empty space.

"Boom"

The landscape changed due to bombardment of those water arrows.

Palmer's expression was dignified seeing the reaction speed of the enemy.. He quickly begins to chase him from behind.
