The Silver haired man realized that the person had escaped. And it's a waste of time to stand here. Then he walked out of the room and made his exit through the broken glass walls.
From the beginning to the end. The staff has maintained the pin-drop silence. When they saw the person from the Silver House disappearing.
Everyone sighed in relief.
"That was scary," A petite-looking young woman uttered in fear.
The Noble houses are different. You can't reason with them. Since the walking disaster has left, the staff came back to their senses.
Then they hurriedly start to vacate this towering building.
Meanwhile,
From MC's perspective;
I watched the whole scene from the control room. A silver-haired person was chasing me. Fortunately, I made a quick plan to barge in.
He wasn't able to find my trails.
Seeing that my mouth curves into an arc. But still, the alarm of danger was not a joke.
Is he a level-6 wizard or a level-7 wizard?
I'm pretty sure he had spotted me from the branch office building. I wasn't able to wrap my head around this.
Perhaps the silver-haired man is from the government. Dunken Smith's death might have alarmed them.
Then I put these unnecessary thoughts back off my mind. I decided to leave at night time.
It is too dangerous to appear outside in broad daylight. My black mask and clothes will attract suspicious eyes.
After gaining some clarity, I walked to the bedroom to take a nap.
Time passes in a blink of an eye,
8 P.M,
When the clock hits 8 pm.
Swoosh~
I appeared back in the bathroom. Seeing the power was cut off. I can tell that the building was abandoned after the commotion.
Then I slowly opened the door and walked out.
Seeing the broken pieces of glass on the floor and other broken items. A quick glint flashes in my eyes.
The floor tiles are clean. Looks like the silver-haired person didn't cause any bloodshed.
Which is something unexpected. I thought he was pissed off. Then shaking my head, I turned to find the exit.
Then I saw an opening that I created earlier.
I walked outside and stood in the air. After glancing at the building one more time. I decided to flee. But suddenly I paused my movements in mid-air.
Among the broken glass pieces on the floor. I remember spotting a map. The map must have been hung on the glass wall.
I was careful not to access the internet in this place. Because a slight mistake will lead to a leak of information.
I don't want anybody to know about my visit here. Especially after killing Dunken Smith. I should avoid roaming in the capital.
The next second, I entered the floor again and started to look for the map. Then I saw a leather map under the broken table.
I hurriedly walked forward to pick it up. Then I took the map and stretched it to see the information inside.
"The Tolu Country," I muttered.
My eyes lit up with surprise. This simple decorative map is going to help me a lot. I already found the location of the border.
There are many entrances to No Man's Land. Anyone can visit No Man's Land via the official border. There is also a pathway via uncharted territories. Such as dark forests and barren land.
After gaining some clarity, I decided to go through the map later. First, I have to find another hideout.
...
The Bloodline Hall,
Tony Burnett is not himself these days. Right now, the wizard hall forgot about Vincent Carey's existence.
But the Bloodline Hall and the Sub-Taboo Hall are looking up for his news. The Sub-Taboo Hall is concerned with Vincent's safety.
He did not contact the Sub-Taboo members nor did he make himself known to the public. So Vincent Carey's status is currently unknown.
Whereas Tony Burnett knows everything. His forces failed to capture Vincent Carey in Rust City. Unless there is a clue, he wasn't able to mobilize his force.
So the two wizard halls are desperately looking up to Vincent Carey's appearance.
While all of this is happening, Tony Burnett has spared no effort in training himself. When he was busy working out.
Beep!
A sudden message broke his concentration. But instead of getting angrier. His eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
No one dares to disturb him during the training. Unless there is something important to share.
His gaze turned toward his watch. He then opened the inbox to read the message.
Boom~
But right after, monstrous mana broke out from his body. The pressure swept away the training room. The nearby gadgets are broken into pieces.
The entire room is shaking under the pressure.
Yet Tony's heart didn't calm down at all. The news gave him another shocking blow. One of his rare pawns was taken down in the Toly City.
After a few seconds, his anger recedes a little bit. But he furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. Dunken Smith was not an ordinary man.
Though he was from the Elemental Hall. But his loyalty was entirely towards Bloodline Hall. They had multiple co-operations before.
He had even thought about using Dunken to kill Vincent Carey. But Vincent's sudden disappearance has foiled his plan.
Now such a valuable wizard was killed. This was not only a loss for the elemental hall. It is also a personal loss to them.
Next time, it would take a great deal of coercion and bribery to make another pawn. One thing after another worse news is reaching his ears.
"Who could be?" He muttered to himself. His eyes are reddened in anger.
He is aware of the Tolu Country's turmoil. Vincent's mission was not fake. The academy branch was actually under threat.
If not for Vincent, some other wizards have taken the mission seriously.
Right now, Tony completely forgot about Vincent Carey. He wants to know who was behind the attack.
The real witnesses heard a terrible sound from Dunken's room. But when they had gone to check it. Apart from the damaged room, they weren't able to find the body.
Tony himself feels absurd. But he is certain that the intel was not wrong. When Tony was disturbed.
The Elemental Hall was also swept away by the news. Someone has killed one of their Senior True House Wizards in a foreign country.
It's hard to suppress the news. As the incident has taken place in a foreign country in broad daylight. The academy has decided not to block the news.
But this incident will create tensions between the Yellow River Academy & the Tolu Country.
The entire academy is saddened by the news. But every wizard knows that the academy won't sit back.
There will be some follow-up responses in a few days.
Meanwhile,
Somewhere outside of the Capital City. Gilbert Reese is clearing out the high-level dark monsters which are locked up in the narrow canyon.
While doing that he receives a message from the council. Except for his superiors. Nobody knows that Gilbert Reese has silently broken through to reach the next level. He is level-7, Shock Force Wizard right now.
Beep!
His communication watch lit up with notification again.
Hearing another notification sound. He raises his eyebrows. Then he looks at the ugly dark monster which is getting near him.
He raises his hand to send a small shock wave from his palm.
Boom~
The shock wave magic spell blasts the dark monster's body into pieces. But the next second, something unexplainable happened.
Corrupt dark energy reconstructed the monster from pieces.
"Harumph,"
Seeing that Gilbert Reese gave a cold snort. He then releases multiple shock wave magic spells from his palm.
The dark monster was blasted into pieces again. But this time the corrupt energy recedes because of relentless attack.
When the corrupt energy disappeared. The dark monster was completely dead for the final time.
Seeing that no more monsters are popping up. Gilbert shifted his attention to the inbox. Right after reading the message, a frown appeared on his face.
"Bad news," He muttered to himself.
Dunken Smith was stationed at Tolu City's academy branch. The branch had earlier requested protection.
But the mission was accepted by Vincent. He is a level-4 wizard. Even if he is there, Vincent can't protect everyone.
As the level-6 wizard, Dunken himself wasn't able to protect himself. Forget about the rest of them.
Earlier, he was disturbed by Vincent and Gutt's sudden disappearance. Now he thinks it's a blessing in disguise. Those 2 have escaped from being reduced to a cannon folder.
And the people in the elder house have underestimated the turmoil in the Tolu Country. The 2 noble houses are targeting each other.
And it's even hard to tell which one attacked their academy branch and killed Dunken Smith.
"Silver House & Brown House..uh.."
"He...He...He...,"
He can already imagine the old coots smashing up their capital into pieces. Then his attention shifted to Vincent Carey.
He wasn't able to contact him because of a poor connection. After leaving this place, he hopes to establish a connection.
Now he slightly regrets not giving other means of communication to Vincent.
