Chapter 674 The Head Manager's change of mind
From MC's perspective:
Viper City:
After injuring the Head Manager, Jonathan didn't wait further. He disappeared from the spot and started moving towards the Viper Academy.
20 minutes later,
Manager Shaw and others who were waiting for the Head Manager to return became anxious.
"What happened?" Shaw said in his heart. He is getting an uneasy feeling all of a sudden. It shouldn't be so long for the Head Manager to kill the dying old man.
Was the Viper Academy's Supreme Elder creating difficulty? He shook his head in denial.
From the Intel, he had collected. He knows that kid Zack has an unusual relationship with the Academy.
Even the dean and the Faction Head are closer to him. Which can't be said the same for other warriors.
At first, he thought the attention was paid due to Zack Lockwood being a Special Element Warrior. Now he thinks something is missing.
Then he immediately tried to contact the Head Manager. There is an active signal. But the Head Manager is not picking up the call.
Which further increases the bad premonition.
The staff and other guards are perplexed by the situation. They are waiting at the entrance of the Viper City. Which was a bit awkward.
Even the residents of the local city became aware that big airships were waiting outside.
Others don't know but they are just waiting for their Head Manager to return.
As time passed, the staff asked Manager Shaw whether to land their airship inside the city.
But Shaw rejected the idea. He knows about the Head Manager's temper. He doesn't want to disobey orders.
A few hours later,
The Head Manager retained some clarity. He was seriously injured. After seeing that there is excessive blood loss.
He put great effort into opening his storage ring. Then he took a few rich healing pills and swallowed them.
Only after the warm energy entered his body. He felt somewhat comfortable. The blood stopped leaking.
He then slowly checked inside. There are damaged veins and organs. It would take a long time to recover.
At this time his heart was empty. There is no anger or joy. He didn't even catch the attack. After experiencing the terror behind the attack.
He understood something.
"That person is not the Supreme Elder. No Supreme Elder can make me feel helpless," He said with a sigh.
He began to recall the meeting in his mind. He started to realize that person was not here to kill him.
Even the attack was simple. There was no intent behind it. It's just he was weak that the simple attack injured him.
"Unknown strength and identity. He is not from this region. It must be the federation's person stationed in the academy," He said to himself.
Apart from that he didn't find any clue. He then let out a sign before trying to get up. He escaped death. Since the person from federation here.
Then he must have known about the conflict. No wonder the Viper Academy was silent. They have such people stationed here.
Now he can only blame the Intel team. And he didn't think about taking revenge or complaining to the headquarters.
Even after getting a warning, if he complains, then he would suffer for sure.
After standing up, he started moving back to the airship. His realm has fallen back, but that doesn't mean he has no energy.
He still has some energy to return safely. After arriving at the airship, he directly entered his room.
Manager Shaw and others only saw a bright light covering the Head Manager's body. They didn't see his ugly state.
Pfff!
After entering inside, the Head Manager coughed up blood. He quickly swallowed a few more pills to control the injury.
Manager Shaw is anxiously waiting outside. He feels something bad. But he doesn't know what happened.
A few minutes later,
The Head Manager's voice reached him. He wants everyone to return to the Steel City right away.
Hearing that Manager Shaw wanted to question him. But he stopped. Because he felt anger in the Head Manager's words earlier.
Shortly after,
The three airships turned around and started moving back to their city. Seeing that some of the residents in the city let out a cheer.
They don't know what happened. But they are happy to see Hunter League's airships returning.
The guards quickly informed the dean. She was not surprised. Since the person was here. She feels a lot more relaxed.
At the same time, she knows that person has nothing to do with the Academy. He won't be staying here for too long.
She feels additional pressure for a breakthrough. Someone has to break through next. Only she and Carlos are at the SSS-Elite level.
There is no one else that has the potential to reach Commander level.
Dorm room:
Jonathan arrived at my dorm room a few hours earlier. After knowing that he has settled the matter. I sigh in relief.
He advised me to wait when it comes to eliminating the remaining remnants. Before going back, he assured me that he was going to stay in Viper City.
I wasn't surprised by his words. If we take any action, it would be eye-catching. Already the Hunter League has found out my connection to the Crimson Hall remnants.
They can make it a bigger issue.
Red Moon Tower:
Ella Downs and Sallie Mills have learned about the recent situation. They didn't expect Zack to offend the Hunter League organization.
After that student exchange meeting, both of them have been training hard. It's just when it comes to Zack. They have complicated thoughts.
They don't know the reason behind the Hunter League situation. But there is someone in the academy who knows about it.
"Can we ask Elder Teresa?" Ella asked.
Sallie nodded her head. Both of their animosity towards Zack has reduced nowadays.
When they managed to meet Teresa on the way. They got shocking news in return.
"He was chased down by them. Because he was behind the death of a Hunter League member," Teresa York said to them.
The other academies have more or less the same intel. But they don't know why it happened.
