From MC's Perspective:
Jonathan dropped me on the ground. Then he erected a barrier around me. So that the powerful lightning can't damage my body. At first, I thought that lightning strike was not a problem.
But only after getting down here. I feel sudden heart palpitations. Thankfully the barrier was erected in time.
A violet color thunderstruck the barrier. But the barrier didn't even make a noise. It successfully withstands the direct brunt of the lightning attack.
"Practice peacefully. I'll stand here to guard"
Jonathan's voice reached my ears. Hearing that I let go of the unnecessary worries. Then I sat cross-legged on the ground and started to run the celestial lightning scripture.
Right after, the lightning rune in my consciousness started to flicker. Slowly, I felt the abundance of purple essence around me. All of this coming from the lightning strike.
Then I concentrated on absorbing the energy. When the energy entered my body. I guided the energy according to the scripture. The purple essence began to circulate in my body.
After circulation, the energy settles down in the dantian as the final destination. Seeing that dried up dantian finally welcomed the pure purple essence. I felt relaxed after a long time.
Then I continued to repeat the process. I want to make use of this opportunity well.
Saw Scale Viper Academy:
Ernest and Laverne wanted to meet Zack. But none of them were able to contact him. Well, this was not the first time it happened. Both thought he was busy preparing himself for the upcoming duel.
On the first day, everything went normal. Even the dean Rebecca didn't take the initiative to contact Zack.
But things changed two days later. As Zack didn't appear for breakfast in the dining hall. Ernest and Laverne couldn't sit still. They contacted me again. But to their disappointment, the call was connected.
Finally, both let it go. But it was not the same case with others. Especially the Special Faction Head Carlos was pissed off by the sudden change in events.
He was staring at Zack Lockwood's information. Even he was surprised by Zack's closed practice. Past two days, he has been looking for ways to convince Eurice Frye.
As long as Eurice Frye agrees to his terms. Then he can use her to kill Zack Lockwood during the duel.
But the problem he was facing was Alice Brown. If he tries to contact Eurice Frye, she will know.
The reason he is going this far is because of the intel he had collected. As per Intel, the girl, Eurice Frye is not a good woman. Though she is talented in cultivation. But her character is troublesome.
The girl seems to be opportunistic. But because of her strength, there are opposite voices in the Rain Water Faction.
Because of this Carlos Kent was waiting for the perfect opportunity. At this point, he didn't even suspect Zack. He still thinks Zack is training in private.
But things changed during the afternoon. Eurice Frye and her followers went to Viper City to participate in the auction.
As this news reached Carlos. He didn't wait for a second. What is the best place to contact Euricr Frye other than Viper City? So Carlos doesn't want to miss out on this opportunity.
Meanwhile, the rainwater faction head Alice Brown doesn't have any clue regarding what's going to happen.
Viper City,
Many influential people came for the auction. Most of them have relations with the academy. As more people are studying in B, C, and D-grade institutions.
Their chances of getting resourced are low. The auction is one of the ways where they can get good resources. So many of them bought tickets to participate.
The auction was run by the Viper city management. People behind the scenes are related to the Academy. An auction is one of the ways to distribute resources and maintain relationships with influential families.
The academy doesn't mind sparing some resources for distribution.
12 p.m
At this time many warriors in academy uniform are entering the circular building. But the badges on their chest shows which institution they came from.
B-grade institution warriors attracted a lot of attention. Followed by C-grade institution warriors. No one glanced at D-grade institution warriors. As they have joined the Academy by using money.
But these low-level warriors came here for entertainment.
Suddenly, people gathered in front of the circular auction building alarmed by the commotion.
The crowd suddenly gave way to the coming warriors. The coming warriors are female warriors. But their luxurious academy uniform and glistering badge instantly struck fear in everyone's mind.
"A- grade institution!"
"What top institution warriors are doing here?" the crowd started to murmur. People are amazed by the momentum. None of them dare to disturb the scene.
The raindrop symbol inscribed on their badges instantly gave away their identity.
The leading blue-haired girl especially attracted the attention of the people. The normal shopkeepers and workers failed to recognize their identity.
But among the crowd, some people have connections with influential families. They know the famous names of the warriors studying in the A-grade institution.
Among the names, Eurice Frye is popular. Someone immediately recognized her face and started to shout her name.
"Eurice Frye!"
"She is Eurice Frye from the Rain Water Faction."
When someone shouted the name. The crowd began to boil. Some of the eyeliners appointed by the families are alarmed greatly.
They began to send back the message to their families. Usually, there will be competition after the end of every faction. Though no one will act directly.
But the families will act secretly to support their descendants. But this time their plan fell apart. Appearance of the Eurice Frye broke their calculations.
Eurice Frye and her followers ignored everyone's exclamations and entered the auction building.
"I never thought the secret water pill would appear here, "Eurice Frye muttered in her heart. Initially, she didn't want to compete. But the secret water pill can give her slight improvement.
Which will be helpful during the duel. She was not naive. She has also collected information about Zack Lockwood. It's indeed a fact that Zack can fight across ranks.
So she decided not to take any chances and was fully prepared for the duel. She and her followers were guided to the V.I.P. room.
She doesn't know that there is one more person who appeared silently in front of the building. The person is none other than Carlos Kent.
After sensing the presence of Eurice Frye. He sighed in relief. He decided to wait for the auction to finish.
Time passed,
After 15 minutes, the auction started. The warriors from other institutions were seated as well. But they are disturbed by the presence of Eurice Frye.
They feared that Eurice Frye and her followers would want every resource.
But when the auction started nothing short of that happened. She and her followers didn't bid for the starting auction items.
Others sighed in relief.
Time passed,
When it's time for the last auction item. The secret water pill was introduced. The secret water pill can help Elite warriors to purify their essence further.
Which will be helpful to execute strong water techniques.
As the pill appeared. Everyone turned their gazes to the V.I.P section. No doubt people are aware that Eurice Frye came for the final auction item.
Though the secret water pill was attractive. None of them dared to bid right now. They want Eurice Frye to leave this place. So they can continue with their lives.
Eurice Frye immediately bid for the item. Not surprisingly, no one bid for the pill. So the secret water pill was sold for the base price.
Eurice Fry bought the item and left it with her followers. But when she and her followers entered the monster transit facility.
Eurice Frye was abducted in a split second. Even her followers are clueless. The action was taken by Carlos Kent.
He brought Eurice to the outside of the Viper City.
Tud~
He dropped Eurice Frye on the ground. And hid himself from her sight.
Meanwhile, Eurice was petrified. She was standing in the monster facility a few minutes ago. Now she is standing in the middle of the open land.
No doubt someone was behind this.
"Eurice Frye"
Before she could think further. She heard someone uttering her name. The next moment, she shuddered in fear.
"Who are you?" She said in a low tone.
She knew some terrifying existence was watching her. Her heart tells her to contact the elder Alice. But she doesn't know whether the person is the enemy or not.
If it's the enemy then she won't survive for a second.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you."
The voice again reached her ears. After hearing that her complexion turned better. "That's right, the person captured me for a reason. I will survive," She consoled herself.
But the next words stumped her.
"I heard about your duel against Zack Lockwood. I want him dead."
Eurice widened her eyes in disbelief. Now she is sure that person is from the hostile faction.
