Chapter 593 The mysterious teenager with space attribute
Just like how items are dropped after killing a monster in games, Azzy designed the dungeon in a way that every time a boss monster dies, a sealing technique will be activated automatically and a storage bag filled with items appear on the field.
As a result, a dark blue-colored drawstring bag appeared in the place of the disappeared undead tortoise.
These were called storage pouches. They weren't expensive and available everywhere.
Unlike storage cards, these bags cannot be linked to one's soul and the space they hold is also relatively small.
Serestia opened such a bag and saw a pair of rank-6 equipment, two Earth-Attribute-related skill cards (one-time use) of six-star rank, a flying card, and an SP recovery card.
Serestia looked at them for a while and then glanced at Raydon who slowly sat up on his butt.
She walked toward him with the bag.
Upon reaching him, Serestia neatly placed a pair of bracers, a flying card, and an earth attribute skill card named the Stone Armor in front of Raydon and said, "I divided the spoils into 50/50, but since I was the main contributor, I took whatever I desired."
Raydon looked at her and then at the things spread before him. He merely took a flying card and said, "I practically did nothing. Just this flying card is enough. You can take the remaining two."
"The loot was already distributed. Whether you want to take it or leave it here is your wish," said the girl as she turned around to fly away from the location.
Raydon picked up his share of the loot and mumbled, "All three of them are useful to me." He then raised his head to look at Serestia's back, "Your act of kindness just complicates things more. I guess I will have to stick with you, after all. I don't want to wish you bad luck but I really hope for you to encounter trouble so that I will become debt free."
Boarding on the flying card, Raydon then followed her from behind.
Meanwhile, somewhere far away from Raydon and Serestia, in a normal wild zone, three elite students of Dragon Academy were seen attacking two female students, one from the Maple Academy and the other from Phoenix Academy.
The two girls ended up with heavy injuries and were forced to announce that they quit the competition.
One of the secret guardians, wearing masks, made his appearance right away and applied a skill card to both of them without speaking of anything. They turned into specks of light and were transported directly to the outside world.
After his job was done, he simply disappeared away from the place, bringing grins to the three students.
One of them couldn't help but sigh in relief, "I thought we would be scolded or worse, punished by them."
"Nah, they can't even if they want to," replied the leader of the group. He is Clarke Roger, the heir of the Roger family and the descendant of Dragon Academy's principal.
Neither his family nor his connection to the principal earned him any special benefits in the academy, but he was nevertheless a popular one in his class. Clarke knew how to play with the rules, often exploiting the loopholes in his favor.
The parents wanted their kids to get close to him to form connections. The popularity went over his head, eventually turning him into a bully.
At the moment, his current goal is to eliminate the students from the other academies from the competition itself.
While the others were securing points, he was looking for them in the wild zone and overpowering them with numbers. So far, 7 students dropped out because of these three.
What would he get out of this?
Well, nothing. He was doing it just for fun. Nothing more and nothing less, although the other two were looting all the things earned by the losers.
After eliminating two more competitors, Clarke ordered his Arcana to spot his next target. With the powers of blending in the darkness, the entire wild zone (forest) can be considered his territory.
As they were casually strolling around, a 10-foot-long wyrm of a dark attribute returned to him with a captive this time.
The captive was a male teenager wearing the uniform of Sun Academy. He is merely low-rank-5 and seemed like he gave up on resisting.
If there was one thing that was off about him, it was probably his pale face and ears. The face could be ignored but the ears were slightly pointy enough for people to notice it first, and Clarke couldn't help but comment about them.
"Look here, we have caught a freak this time." Clarke's comment made the other two burst out into laughter.
However, the teenager didn't react. He just quietly stood there and stared at them with the wyrm's tail coiled around him.
The lack of reaction spoiled Clarke's mood. Putting up a serious expression, he freed him and then said, "Now, you are left with two choices. Fight or give up. What's it going to be?"
In response, the teenager's right hand was raised high above his head, and soul energy surged into his palm. Yet, Clarke wasn't bothered.
He merely commented with a smile, "You made your choice, very good." He then ordered his Shadow Wyrm to take out the target.
Little did he expect that it would pass through him as if he was a ghost. Before they got out of the shock, multiple portals appeared around them and all of those portals shot large-sized needle-shaped energy attacks.
Following it, the painful screams of those three were echoed in the surroundings, leaving the secret guardians in shock.
*Thud* Thud* Thud*
Once they collapsed onto the ground and lost consciousness, the boy simply walked in silence as if he was lazily dragging his body.
The secret guardian reached the unconscious students and checked their conditions. He immediately shouted, "Ajax, emergency here. Come and help."
As the other secret guardian appeared beside him, the hired mercenary spoke, "Their soul orbs appeared to be damaged. Quickly notify Mr. Gary."
"Damaged?" The other guardian named Ajax furrowed his brows in seriousness, "How is this possible? They were at the advanced stage of the Elite realm and he was only at elementary level. How did he manage to do it with such a simple attack? More than that, the nature of the attack itself is suspicious."
"Are you implying of cheating?" The mercenary of the Iron Brotherhood guild understood what his colleague was trying to say.
The latter nodded.
They decided to inform everything to Azzy, following their duty.
***
Meanwhile, thousands of light years away, on a planet that looks similar to that of Gaia and Arcana world;
A pair of elves, of the 9-star soul realm, was battling against an army of giants that looked similar to that of Orcs, except that these had horns on their heads and multiple eyes; the foot soldiers had one horn and a pair of normal eyes, and the strongest one in the back has four horns and four pairs of eyes.
Regardless of their division of strength, the elves bombarded the whole battlefield with a series of arrows and spells as if they had an inexhaustible supply of energy.
After 17 hours of continuous battle, the couple managed to eradicate every monster and is fighting their final opponent, the Orc Lord.
"Louis, give it the final blow," roared the female elven beauty as she launched a powerful illusion on the Orc Lord.
Upon being hit by a beam of translucent energy, the Orc Lord went into a trace for a second and the male archer took this opportunity to launch his ultimate technique.
"Soul skill: Stellar Arrowstorm"
The archer fired the Stellar Arrow, which cut through the air like lightning and pierced the chest of the Orc Lord.
Upon impact, it created a brilliant explosion of starlight, incinerating him in an instant.
However, due to its high blast radius, the archer didn't waste any time creating a portal by shooting another arrow and saved his partner from collateral damage.
After a while, they were seen sitting on grassland and gazing at the stars in the sky. Due to no light pollution on the planet, the sky looked incredibly beautiful.
For a while, there was a complete silence between them.
Fey of the Summer Eladrin race then broke the silence and asked, "Louis, It's been a while since we last saw our son. Shall we return to earth?"
The husband replied by shaking his head, "There's a lot to do, Fey. I'll go back when I finish up my tasks."
"C'mon, you can take a few days of break," Fey became slightly annoyed by his rejection.
The husband let out a deep sigh, "Fine. Don't make that face. But, only three days. After that, we are leaving."
"Yay, I knew you would agree… Muah. As a reward…" "Hey, what are you doing? My pants…" "C'mon, it is not like there is anyone to spy on us" "But, still, it is outside. I… Argh…"
