Suddenly, he realizes someone else is here.
When he turns around. He saw the familiar face staring at him.
Henry asked, "What are you doing here?"
The person in front of him is none other than the infamous bloodline wizard. Tony Burnett from the Bloodline Hall.
Henry was aware of Tony's recent situation. Which was not good. He was supposed to be staring at Vincent Carey in the Battle Tower.
So he is confused by Tony's presence here.
Tony Burnett sneered inside. Instead of answering, he started to observe him from top to bottom.
Looking at the dirty clothes and worn-out body. He can tell that Henry has gone through many fights. It's easy to kill him right here.
But before that, he has to confirm something.
"What about Carolina Slate?" Tony asked.
"That b! tch," Henry Barlow was surprised. Soon he realizes Tony has the same purpose as him. After that, his expression relaxed a little bit.
He was surprised that Tony has the same scheme as him.
"She is fighting against the monsters at the core area," Henry said to him.
Tony's eyes flickered. He understood why Henry came back without killing her. Henry seems to have consumed huge mana.
If he fights against her in this situation, the result would be unknown. Tony's brain is racing to come up with a suitable solution.
Henry feels uneasiness. Tony is an unpredictable guy. Even Mike Curtis won't deal with this person that easily.
Since he is here. Henry thinks Carolina won't have any chance of escape. Even though she has some loop cards, it's difficult to fight against 2 wizards at the same time.
Tony has decided to kill both of them here. He had made up his mind to make him a scapegoat. It's not wise to change plans right now.
One more thing is that Carolina doesn't know about his presence here. He feels Henry is hiding some information.
If she asks for help, then it would be trouble.
Suddenly, he notices Henry is accessing the sci-fi watch.
"What are you doing?" Tony blurted out all of a sudden.
Henry paused his movements and said casually, "I'm going to update someone."
The next moment, a killing intent flashes in Tony's eyes. He turned to attack Henry all of a sudden.
Swoosh~
Tony's fingers change into wolf claws. The claw pierces through Henry's back.
Puch~
Blood splattered on the ground. Henry was dumbfounded by the sudden attack. He has suffered a grave injury on his back.
Turning around, he saw Tony activating his bloodline power. Seeing that his expression changes drastically.
"Why are you attacking me?"
"We are on the same side"
Henry asked out aloud. But he was greeted with blood thirst again. Henry was scared. He was out of mana.
He can withstand one or two attacks by using his body strength. But it's impossible to escape death. The only thing that can save him right now is the emergency message.
But before he could do that another sharp claw tore through his back.
Argh~
A muffled grunt left his mouth. His back was bleeding heavily. One can see the sharp claw mark on Henry's back.
Seeing Henry's desperate struggle. Tony confirmed something. Henry was out of mana. He didn't even have mana left to materialize his weapon.
"Good opportunity," Tony raises his claw targeting Henry's neck.
"No," Henry was scared out of his wits. Using his body strength, he evaded the attack. But he has no mana left to counterattack.
Right now, he can only flee from this place.
An evil grin appeared on Tony's face. It has been a long time since someone ran away from him.
He enjoys this kind of movement.
Swoosh~
The next moment, he disappears from the spot and uses the bloodline skill to chase him down.
In a blink of an eye, he appeared behind Henry.
Claw~
Another sharp claw attack tore through his back. Fleshes are torn apart. Even the inside bones are visible this time.
Puch~
Henry collapsed on the ground because of heavy bleeding and injury. He has the strength to move further.
Punch~
But before that punch landed on his face.
"Ha...Ha...Ha..."
Tony let out a joyful laugh. He continues to punch Tony's face.
A couple of seconds later,
Henry's face was completely swollen. Brushes can be seen on his cheeks. Not only that Henry has fainted from the continuous attack.
Right now, Henry's condition is half beaten to death. There is only a small amount of vitality left in his body.
If not immediately treated, Henry would die in a few hours. Tony has a reason to do that.
If he kills him right now then the Weapon Hall would be alarmed. There is a chance for someone to arrive here.
Though he cleared out all the trials. But still, there is magic that can track the missing target.
Not only that he has to kill Carolina as well. He wants to end their life at the same time. Making it seem like both died fighting against each other.
Someone can find the truth. But Tony doesn't care. He is going to die either way. So Bloodline Hall won't expose this matter.
They would try to corner the Sub-Taboo Hall with the help of the Weapon Hall. Then the Sub-Taboo hall would face even more trouble.
Thinking about the upcoming events, his mouth curved into arcs. He is confident that the Weapon Hall is not stupid enough to go against the Bloodline Hall for the sake of one useless student.
If they agree to the bid of the bloodline Hall, then the weapon Hall would gain immense benefits in the future.
After figuring it out, Tony started dragging Henry's body to the aircraft.
Time passed,
Meanwhile,
2 hours later,
Carolina Slate's magic is evolving slowly. At first, the thorny vines began to show some changes. Vines are visibly stronger and stronger than before.
Even the thorn spikes are sharper and more deadly than before. Changes are not stopped. They continue to take place. The vines are improving further.
It all comes from her awakened magic. Carolina can feel that her magic has become stronger. But still, there are some energies left in the glowing item to absorb.
