The Beast Research Alliance was the leading research organization in anything mystic beasts related in the current era of earth.
Rumored to be created by an alliance of some of the greatest scientists in present-day earth, the Beast Research Alliance had its tentacles everywhere from the 7 Great Shelters to the 21 Small Shelters.
A branch of this massive organization was also in Obedin City.
At this moment, the scientists in the Obedin City branch of the Beast Research Alliance were working on deciphering the mysteries behind some pills and weapons that were handed over to them by the Obedin Mystic Academy.
After the assassination saga that followed immediately after the graduation tournament, the academy interrogated the 3 students involved and they were able to retrieve 2 pills and 8 rings from Ben.
The academy's researchers tried to study the ring and decipher its identity but they were stuck, so they sent it over to their comrades in the Beast Research Alliance who took the job with much enthusiasm.
For the past few weeks, the scientists worked on the samples without much progress but now they finally seemed to get some progress.
The lead scientist among the trio of scientists had his glasses on as he studied the pill sample through a computerized chromatographic mixture separator again.
Beep! Beep!
The next moment, the computerized chromatographic separator made 2 beep sounds as it finally found a match to the properties of the blue pill.
>Matching Results: Adrenaline Pill-Blue<
Once the lead scientist saw this result, his face scrunched up a bit in thought as he adjusted his glasses. His eyes narrowed the next moment as he rushed to remove the blue pill before placing the black pill on the separator.
The computerized process started again but this time, having gotten matching results for the blue pill already, the process was faster.
Beep! Beep!
>Matching Results: Adrenaline Pill-Black<
On seeing this, the lead scientist's eyes narrowed more. He thought some more before tapping at the air as a virtual screen appeared before him.
"Online search for Adrenaline Pill, Red, Blue, and Black".
>Results Found: The Big-boned Bloodline<
The lead scientist's eyes narrowed even further into slits on seeing this, he sighed as he already got the result that he was looking for, it was just unexpected.
He turned to face his 2 assisting scientists. "Place the 8 rings on the Computerized Treasure Dictionary, search with the Big-boned Bloodline as a reference point".
Once the 2 assisting scientists did as was ordered, they got matching results and they all pointed to the Big-boned Bloodline.
All 3 scientists looked at each other. "Boss, is that…?"
"Yes, it's the Ancient Carter Family".
"Contact the Obedin Mystic Academy, show them the results". The lead scientist removed his gloves as he spoke. "Also, return the pills and the rings".
…
Obedin Mystic Academy…
In the Principal's office, Principal Dominic Barry looked at the information that was before him with a somewhat helpless smile on his face.
"Who would have thought that silly student had such a background?" He rubbed his chin as he turned to face his assistant. "Well, the Ancient Carter Family are not exactly renowned for their big brains so it matches up".
"What are you going to do with him?" Ms. Hillary, the Principal's personal assistant asked as she looked at him.
"Return what belongs to him of course". Principal Dominic laughed. "I'll leave him to his own devices, his family has plans for him and I have no right to interfere, I still love my life you know".
Once the result from the Beast Research Alliance came, the principal was surprised but he quickly understood what was happening and accepted it.
This was not the first time that something like this happened.
In recent years, some rumors said that the Ancient Families were fed up with the conceited and arrogant nature of their younger generations, and to curb this, the elders of these Ancient Families implemented some new rules.
In the age of awakening, only one thing was truly respected and that was strength, the strongest gets to be the leader, not the most cunning.
To nurture powerful leaders to continue their legacy, some Ancient Families started teleporting their newly born descendants to different places on the earth rim where they had a chance of either dying or slowly struggling to the top.
Sometimes, they leave special inheritances for these descendants to access and inherit depending on how much they adapted and strived in their suffering.
It was a gamble, if they died, they would only lose a descendant but if one of them strived in suffering then they would have hit the jackpot.
The Ancient Carter Family like the Ancient Elliot Family was one of the leading Families in the Great Shelters and their special bloodline was the Big-bone bloodline which was one of the most peculiar in the world.
From what was deduced by the Beast Research Alliance, Ben was probably a descendant of this powerful family that was sent on this gamble.
That connection was all that Principal Dominic needed. That same day, the 8 rings and the 2 pills were sent back to Ben in a clean and pristine state.
In the Mystic Hunter Union, Ben was about to embark on a mission when his trump cards were returned. He was stunned and confused.
He looked at the 8 rings that he adored for so long in disbelief.
"What sorcery is this?"
…
In a developed district of Obedin City, there was a great commotion around a massive mansion as 5 police cars blocked the gate to the mansion.
At this moment, while hiding behind their cars, the policemen held speakers as they tried to communicate with the criminals inside the mansion.
The previous night, armed robbers invaded this mansion.
Like all other mansions of this era, the mansion was fortified with computerized defense systems but having come prepared, the robbers were able to overcome all the obstacles and enter inside the mansion.
They were able to rob successfully, getting all that they wanted but unknowing to them, the defense systems of the mansion bypassed a hole in the firewall that they created to send a distress signal to the police.
Once the police arrived, everything changed, regressing into a hostage situation as the police and armed robbers were now at a stalemate.
While the police were at a stalemate with the armed robbers, behind the mansion was a group of 6 soldiers who were hidden.
Justin's voice was audible and clear. "Our mission today is very simple".
"All we need to do is to incapacitate the armed robbers as swiftly as possible while making sure that they are unable to harm any hostage in the process".
"We are mystic warriors while they are not, we can do it".
"Merry, Gundogan, the 2 of you will be following me into the mansion as the main force of this mission".
"Antonio and Antonia, the both of you are twins and your chemistry is the best. You'll both stay outside and support us with ranged firepower, make sure your arrows don't kill, just incapacitate them".
"Rex, your only role in this mission is to watch and learn".
"Let's do it!"
Putting mystic warriors up against normal criminals was just overkill.
Whoosh!
Once Justin led his team of soldiers into the mansion with Antonio and Antonia giving ranged support while all Rex did was watch, the fate of the armed robbers was sealed.
Armed with their mystic weapons, they bypassed all the defenses erected by the criminals before they could even think of pulling their gun triggers.
The mission started and ended in less than a minute.
The armed robbers stood no chance as they were outclassed, all 8 of them saw the terror of their lives as they were beaten before being cuffed.
In the blink of an eye, when mystic warriors became involved, this situation that would have been life-threatening was easily resolved.
It was an easy mission for the Death Card team.
