261 Black Crystal
Fein couldn’t help but chuckle. He was a bit ashamed hearing Michael’s words since his talent came from his system. Although his system is his ability so he doesn’t need to feel that way.
“If you’re talented enough and happened to have an affinity for blood energy. You can attempt to combine blood energy and degu energy, and see what happens.”
If Michael can really do that, no doubt it would increase his strength. Just like Sofia, who became dangerous after obtaining the ability to wield the ‘Destruction Energy.’ But he didn’t know if Michael would be able to do that. After all, Sofia has a high blood purity as the vampire princess and that might be one of the factors why Sofia could wield ‘Aiki’ in the first place.
‘But it is worth trying.’ Fein hopes that Michael can also wield Aiki.
Just imagining Michael, who possesses shadow manipulation, gains the ability to wield the destruction energy or Aiki is enough to give him goosebumps and a chill in his heart.
“Is it even possible to fuse those two energies?”
“Believe me, my girlfr- ahem... Sofia did it.” Fein coughed lightly. “Speaking of which, I forgot to visit her. Next time I go there, I would bring this up.”
“Would he agree though?” Gregory made a snide comment.
Fein smirked and pointed to himself. “With my charisma, that’s already a given.”
.....
Gregory looks at Fein speechlessly. He could only sigh, and on his chair behind the desk.
“Do I need to do something in exchange??”
“I don’t. I’ll update you once I talk with Lucius. Don’t worry, I’m already in his camp. He would give me a face.”
Seeing Fein’s confident appearance, Michael felt relieved. Although he didn’t know if he would successfully access blood energy, he still wants to give it a chance! Because he had confidence in his talent. ‘I wonder what would happen when I fuse the two energies.’ He wants to beat up his friend from leaving him guessing like this
“Don’t you really want to consider?” Michael turned his head to Gregory and tried to persuade him one last time.
Gregory shook his head. “Don’t even think about it.”
Although he wants to live a little longer, he doesn’t want to compromise his humanity. Yeah, he knew its stupid, but he was an old-fashion guy that loves his race and valued his roots. But he’s also not against it if his friends become one.
The reason he wants to live a little longer in the first place is to watch Fein, Michael and Kidd become big figures that would shake the world with their names. But if he can’t, although it’s a pity. He knew in his heart that with their talent; they didn’t need his watch any longer.
He had already experienced how sad it was to lose your loved ones. Now, he is old. Most of the people he cares about had already left this world. And he didn’t need to worry about the three now.
For him, he has only one last mission left, and that is to see Kidd safe. After that, he doesn’t care if he would die or live.
“Captain, I draw some of your blood earlier. I would take it to my laboratory to see if there’s something wrong with your body. Ahmm... Before this, did you eat something unpleasant recently and how do you feel now?
Fein started to ask a series of questions regarding Gregory’s lifestyle. By doing this, he would determine if there was something that might have triggered his heart attack earlier.
Gregory knew that Fein was an expert in the field of medicine and health. So, he cooperated honestly and tried to remember what he did recently that might have contributed to his shortness of breath earlier.
Hearing his captain’s answer, Fein could determine that his captain was living a healthy lifestyle. In fact, he was disciplined. The only problem he found is the fact that his captain works overnight and has an unhealthy sleeping schedule.
“Well, except for your sleeping schedule, everything is okay. It’s not possible to have that kind of heart problem with just that.” Fein scratched his chin, feeling a bit of a headache.
“And we are degu users. We are more resilient than ordinary people.” Michael added.
Seeing Fein and Michael’s frowning expression, a bitter smile appeared on Gregory’s face, and said jokingly. “Someone might have cursed me.”
Michael and Fein rolled their eyes at him.
...
“Finally broken through S rank!”
A violent aura destroyed the wall into dust, the ground cracked and spread fifty meters, and the air rippled visibly.
Jackson clenched his fist, feeling the power contained within. He had miscalculated. He broke through the S rank later than expected. But it was nothing for him. After all, he had already waited a long time for this. A few weeks was nothing to him.
“Hahaha! It’s time to kill.” Jackson swept his eyes at the collapsed building and the stone rubbles in his surrounding.
...
“So this is those fuckers, Base? It’s really hidden.” Jackson hid three kilometers away from the Ranger’s Eye branch.
In his hand, there was a black crystal that was projecting an image. It is an A rank peak artifact he stole from one of the royal family’s volt. And it’s even the kingdom’s heirloom. One can imagine how valuable the crystal must be. The ‘Observer’s Dark Crystal’, just like its name, can project a real-time moving image of a place and observe people from the distance. Excellent for spying and monitoring.
The restriction is, it has a range of three kilometers and one can only use the crystal for one minute once a day.
“Zoom!”
Suddenly, the image on the ball moved closely, then Jackson manipulated in and entered the Ranger’s Eye base... Inside, he saw the receptionist resting, when he saw it wasn’t the one he was looking for, he moved to the next room. He didn’t find the person he was looking for until the view came to the Ranger’s Eye captain’s office!
A cruel smile appeared on his face when he saw Fein talking with another two silhouettes. He can’t hear them, but at least he finally knows his prey’s location.
“Well, I will monitor you first...” Jackson muttered coldly. He decided to monitor first, and wait for a perfect opportunity to lay an ambush.
