Ancient Tears BloodLine

Hansen Campus-Red Stone City,

Cabin,

Elder Thornton is having a conversation with Arthur. He didn't expect Zack to react like this. He didn't answer anyone's call from Hansen Campus. At that time, he really felt Zack was requesting too many resources from them.

So he was a little harsh on Zack. Thinking about it, Elder Thornton sighed internally.

He asked, "Is there any news from James? We don't know. What is Zack doing out there? "

Last time, Elder Thornton went to Star Tower with Zack as a guardian. This time Zack went all alone to Iron Post City.

"Factions were busy preparing for the Crimson Hall competition. On the surface, it might seem like no one cares about weaker organisations. But actually, that's not the case," Elder Thornton thought to himself.

On the other hand, Mr. Arthur was also concerned about Zack. He replied, "Elder, Zack is doing fine. He hadn't joined any teams yet. Currently, he is cultivating in seclusion. "

Elder Thornton nodded, a slight glint flashing in his eyes. Zack is the current winner of the Star Tower Competition. It's been a few days since Zack left. But still, there are a lot of eyes peeping at Hansen Campus.

It won't remain the same for long. When these people find out that Zack is truly not here, Then they will look for him using their sources.

When Elder Thornton touched his forehead, he commented, "It would have been good if Zack stayed here."

Mr. Arthur smiled. He had heard a few things from James. Zack is not going there for a mission. He intends to practise his skills in the insect forest.

Then, suddenly, Mr. Arthur received an emergency message from Ms. Key. He immediately opened it to view it.

Mr. Arthur's expression changed drastically.

"Elder, Take a look at this news " After saying that Mr. Arthur forwarded the news to him,

Elder Thornton retracted his thoughts and looked at the news. He uttered, "Elder Brody Roth's high-level visit to Crimson Hall"

Elder Thornton's expression condensed a little bit. He continued to read the message. His expression was still unbelievable when he finally got it. He asked, "Arthur, Tell our connections to stay vigilant. "

Elder Thornton added further, "I don't know whether that person from May Ford Academy was able to collect information or not."

"But I believe there will be some skirmishes before the competition. So tell our people to stay away from them. "

"Don't worry, elder. I'll take care of this matter." Mr. Arthur assured him with his words.

…

(From MC's Perspective)

Insect Forest,

"Pfff"

Another one is gone. After killing a few bugs, I continued my journey. After killing Benny Sutton, I didn't find his lackeys chasing me from behind.

Then, a few hours later, I was hit with these annoying bugs. I have just covered one safe zone since this morning. But it took several hours for me to do this. It's hard to even walk through this forest.

I looked at the sky. Before dawn, I needed to reach another safe zone to spend the night there.

Then, in my perception, there is no living thing beside me. I recalled the City Lord's Mansion. From my current position, the nearest safe zone is located in the west part of the forest. Unlike the previous one, it's located in the inner part of the forest.

After figuring it out, I walked towards the destination. Various thoughts run in my mind. I intend to improve my flaws, such as charging and discharging lightning power with my sword.

The discharge speed should be too fast for the opponent. Using the Sword Divide move, if I spent too much time on locking the target, it would be detrimental to me in the future.

If it's a one on one fight, then it's okay. But facing a group, it's hard to use sword divide efficiently.

"RED"

Suddenly, a few red dots appeared in my mind. Seeing that, I halted my footsteps and began to observe the speed of the red dots. By looking at their slow movements, I'm pretty much convinced that this time it's not bugs but rather humans.

"Last time it was the Black Fist team. Who could it be this time?" While looking at the red dots, I muttered to myself.

Next, I slowly moved towards the red dots.

The red dots are moving ahead. They are certainly not coming in my direction.

After figuring it out, I increased my speed.

10 minutes later,

I hid behind the tree and continued to watch the situation in front of me. There

were ten black dressed people. They are slowly moving forward while talking to each other. In order not to alert them, I stopped following.

From previous experience, I have learnt a lot of things. Like, Victor Brown was selected for the 5th team. Benny Sutton's master order to capture Victor. There is too much going on between the teams.

If I can learn one or two things from these groups, It will be helpful for my information collection. While talking about information, the image of Reminginton Talley flashes before my eyes.

I wonder, what is he up to? Remington wouldn't have guessed that I was soloing in the forest.

Dispelling my thoughts, I continue to follow them secretly.

Suddenly, I heard something from these people.

Among those ten people walking forward, one of them raised a question: "Leader, is this path safe? I heard this path is mostly used by the warriors for logistics. "

The leader of the group was a burly figure; his face was covered with a black mask. Not only him, but the entire group had their faces masked to conceal their identities.

The leader of this bandit team was not surprised by the question. It's not their style to walk boldly and search for their prey. They usually set up an ambush and wait for them.

"Don't worry," the leader said with a smile." The warriors don't dare touch us. We just simply need to look for those weak ones to loot. "

Hearing that the one who raised a question suddenly replied without thinking, "Ha... ha... ha... You are the right leader; even their strongest team never touched one of us"

When he said that, the expression of the leader changed drastically. He charged up to the person and kicked him in the stomach.

"Bast**d, do you want to die?" The leader shouted at him. Remember what the boss told us before leaving? "Walls have ears, so does this forest," the leader said.

The person spurts out blood immediately. He immediately begged for forgiveness.

Seeing that the leader snorted and stopped stomping him, "Harrumph,"

He then waved his hand. Next, two people went forward to pick him up.

Next, the bandit team continues to walk forward after this small episode.

Alternatively,

At this point, what? I was quite taken back inside. It took me some minutes to digest the information.

What did they mean by the strongest team? Did the Fire Sword Team never touch them in the first place?

Several questions popped into my mind.

I don't know whether to believe it or not. But upon seeing the strong reaction from the bandit leader, I believe the information spilled by his subordinate is true.

An image of Uncle James flashes before my eyes. He warned me not to get involved in this bandit hunting mission. I sighed; the water here is really too deep.

I thought bandits and the Fire Sword team were on the same page. No wonder the city is currently in chaos. Maybe the City Lord might know something.

Then again, a question rose in my heart. If I start to act against them, there is a possibility that it will reach bandit hunting teams. What will they do then?

Their reaction will be worth seeing then.

Next, I already gauged the strength of these people. The leader is a Peak Special Trainee. His subordinates are divided between Mid and Initial levels.

As I watched them fade away, I began to move. I plan to use a sword divide on them. It's a good move to catch them off guard.

After reaching a little bit closer to them, I held the Black Sword in my hands.

The bandit team, unaware of the surroundings, continues to walk forward.

Next, "Sword Divide," I activated the lightning move.

I began to pour the lightning essence into the sword. The black blade was charged with lightning power within seconds.

Then, without further ado, I released the lightning power to the group.

"Thudrrr"

A thunderous sound resonated in the area with the discharge of the lightning power.

At breakneck speed, the purple lightning dashed towards the bandit team.

The bandits were alarmed by the sounds. When the leader turned to his right to look backward, he got dumbstruck.

"Boom" "Rumble"

The lightning power blasted the bandit team in different directions. The initial trainee warrior was directly injured by the blast. But, Including the bandit leader, four other bandits managed to hold on.

The aftermath swept away the nearby rocks and trees.

I dashed towards them using this opportunity.

"Enemy!" "Watch out," the bandit leader shouted.

"Pfff" "Pfff" "Pfff"

I managed to slice the necks of three initial trainee warriors. Then I dashed towards the other two.
