Chapter 655 Supporting Carolina
From MC's perspective:
The following day,
After getting ready, I left the dorm room. Instead of going to the Sub-Taboo Hall. I'm heading towards the Battle Tower Trial to support Carolina.
Walking, I saw wizards from other halls. Almost everyone is talking about the Black Glow secret place. Thanks to several online posts.
Now everyone is aware that core wizards are going to enter some secret place to collect resources.
But no one is speculating that I'm going to enter. I doubt whether others know about my entrance quota.
If they knew it, then it would have caused some noise.
I wonder what the other halls are planning? Soon, I reached the main building. After walking inside, I walked up to the phone booth.
I opened the door to enter inside. Then I selected the destination on the screen.
A few seconds later,
The booth starts to shake. Then it slowly starts to descend on the ground. Before I knew it, the booth came to a halt.
Creak~
I opened the door to step outside. After walking out, I saw the situation outside. There are people outside the Battle Tower.
Not all of them came to participate. Some came to cheer up their friends. But one thing is for sure, the place is quiet compared to my trial time.
Then I started walking close to the entrance. Turning around my head, I take a good look at the LeaderBoard Rankings.
Carolina is on the 21st floor. Her strength has improved greatly. I wonder whether she can surpass the 50 floors.
Slowly, I reached the Battle Tower. The wizards who are here for their friends and teammates have noticed my presence.
"Vincent Carey?"
"Is he going to participate?"
"No, he had cleared the floors already."
The nearby wizard students started to speak. They didn't expect Vincent Carey to come here. But when they followed his sight.
They saw someone from the Sub-Taboo Hall challenging the Trial as well. Then they understood everything.
But few among the crowd carried strong hostility. As they are from the Bloodline Hall. Though they are not outstanding and genius wizards from the bloodline hall.
They are quite average. For some people, their wizard path would stop at level 5. It's because of their lack of bloodline purity.
So they remain at level 5. When they near their life end. They would choose to leave the Academy. There are four such people gathered here.
"What is he doing here?"
"Clearly, because of him our bloodline Hall is suffering today."
"I heard that higher-ups are paying some huge price."
The 4 wizards start to speak among themselves. The news slowly started to leak out. That the bloodline Hall's higher-ups are punished. As they have tried to harm Vincent Carey.
When the rumors start to spread. No one bothers to stop it. Which made people think the rumors might be true.
"Fighting is forbidden here"
"Don't forget the previous lesson," One of the bloodline wizards said. Though they have hostility towards Vincent.
But that doesn't mean that they will fight here.
On the other hand, I furrowed my eyebrows. My appearance brought both positive and negative words. But my eyes are focused on the leaderboard ranking.
2 hours later,
Carolina Slate exits the trail. She was battered. Upon seeing me she broke out with a huge smile.
"I know you would come."
"How was my performance?" Carolina asked.
"You did well by clearing 25 floors. Hereafter, the difficulty will be more," I answered.
She nodded her head with a heavy expression. Her vines are used to control multiple monsters in the trial.
But when the stronger monsters appear in the upcoming trial. Her Vine magic would be tested.
We both started walking back to the phone booth.
Seeing that other wizard students including the bloodline wizards left with unwilling eyes. Carolina's record has surprised them.
Even those who don't know her name. Slowly, I came to know about her.
Walking, Carolina thought of something.
She asked, "Did you find any other news about Black Glow?"
Hearing that I replied," I did some research in the library yesterday. Most of the books talk about the remains of the wizards and their valuables."
"They are considered a treasure trove for core house wizards."
Carolina nodded before saying, "There are other special places. But you need contribution points or evaluation to get the quota. I'm hoping to get some contribution points in the coming days."
Carolina's words sound logical. For her current strength, it's a risk to take a dangerous mission. Even for me, it took a lot of struggle.
By that time, we walked in front of the booth. Both of us entered inside. Then we selected the location. The booth starts to move a few seconds later.
"Did Senior Mark contact you?" Carolina asked.
Hearing that my eyes flickered.
"Why do you ask?" I asked back.
Carolina blinked her eyes before saying, "I have told you yesterday. He is the one who is most likely to get the quota. I thought he would contact you."
"That's right. He asked me to give him the entrance quota. But I rejected it," I answered.
Carolina widened her eyes in surprise. She was just saying. But it happened to be true.
"I don't think he will give up that easily," She said.
"The entrance quota is decided by the academy. No one can do anything about it," I replied.
Then we started to speak about other things. Soon, we reached the main building. After stepping outside, we parted ways.
She looks completely exhausted. Then I started heading towards the Sub-Taboo Hall. I'm going to immerse myself in my studies.
Thinking, I increased my pace slightly. Not long after, I reached the Sub-Taboo hall. There was no pest outside to keep an eye on the Sub-Taboo Hall.
After walking in front of the scanner, I showed my I.D.
Creak~
When the door opened. I walked inside the hall. Then I sat on the sofa and started to immerse myself in my studies.
I started from the basics of meditation.
Time flies,
I don't know how long has passed. My concentration broke 2 hours later. At the same time, my headaches.
