Ancient Tears BloodLine - Chapter 966
Chapter 966: Part 2: Emergency Task Chapter 966: Part 2: Emergency Task From MC’s Perspective: Main Hall, Faction Leader Clifford said, “Sooner or later, Zack’s talent will be exposed.
So he should experience the dangers first.” “Okay, leader,” Austin agreed.
“I think as long as he participates in the fight in the outer area.
He won’t face a high-ranking monster,” Elder Ann said all of a sudden.
She thinks Leader Clifford was right.
She doesn’t want Zack to grow in a greenhouse.
The more he gets the experience, the stronger he can get.
It will be beneficial to him in future.
After discussing a few more things, the main elders disappeared from the Hall.
Meanwhile, I opened my eyes after experiencing the heart-wrenching pain.
The Skeleton of mine appears to be containing powerful energy.
If I look deeply into my skeleton surface.
I can spot small red runes inscribed over them.
However, I didn’t feel the barrier.
I know that those days may not be faraway.
After pushing the thoughts back off my mind.
I stepped out of the training room and went to take a bath.
The bath lasted for 20 minutes, I changed into a fresh uniform and started to comb my hair.
Buzz!
All of a sudden, the notification alarm sounds.
Hearing that I looked at the display on the storage bracelet.
“Master Austin,” I uttered in shock.
Then I attended the call without thinking further.
“Zack, come to the Golden Lightning Palace quickly,” Austin said before ending the call.
My heart skips a beat for a second.
Because I found his voice to be serious.
“Did I do something wrong?” I asked myself.
Then I realized I had done nothing.
It must be something else.
After doing my hair properly, I left the room.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
When I walked out of the entrance gate.
I found many warriors standing in front of my place.
“What’s going on?” I asked myself.
Then I shook my head and decided to leave.
I don’t know why they have gathered here.
But I don’t have time to get entangled with them.
I started to run away from the place.
Seeing that the warriors from the Different Hunting Squad were stunned.
“Hey, what just happened?” “He fled right after seeing us!” “You must have scared him.” “Maybe he is afraid of us.” “That’s right, so many of us have gathered here.
It must have shocked him.” “Why are we still waiting here?” “Let’s follow him” The Warriors spoke to each other.
Some decided to follow.
While others choose to leave.
Soon, I arrived at the Golden Lightning Palace.
The manor door was already open.
I walked into the place.
When I reached the training courtyard.
I saw Master Austin standing in front of me.
“Master,” I greeted him.
“You have arrived.
Good.
But it’s a pity that my other disciples went outside to complete the task, “Austin said in a solemn tone.
Then he looked at Zack and said, “I have asked you to come here for an important reason.” “We have a Team called Monster Hunting Squads.
From time to time, they were given special tasks from the Faction.
Right now, I want you to join one of the teams to complete the task,” Austin said.
Hearing that my heart was in turmoil.
I’m hearing the same words again.
First time was during my first day here.
Someone talked about this.
“But my strength right now?” I asked in my heart.
“Do you have any doubts?” Austin asked.
“Master, what’s the task?” I asked.
“I’ll take you there, you will understand,” Master Austin said before grabbing the shoulder of mine.
Swish!
We vanish from the spot.
Everything flashes before my eyes.
The outside scene appears to be a blur.
Before I knew it.
I found myself standing in front of a huge crowd.
The crowd was split into different groups.
They are divided into small teams of five members.
“Here, it’s the Monster Hunting Squads under the Golden Lightning Palace.
There are 20 Teams here.
Other teams are doing outside missions,” Austin said in a solemn tone while looking at me.
Hearing that I was shocked in my heart.
No wonder, there are so many fighting platforms inside the Golden Lightning Palace.
It must be for their training.
On the other hand, the warriors in the Monster Hunting Squads are observing the newcomer as well.
Even some of them recognised.
Especially those who had gone to Zack’s residence to stand in front of it earlier.
“So he has come here!” “He is going to join the Golden Lightning Palace’s Hunting Squad.” “Those who were in other Palaces might be still looking for him.” “I feel bad for those guys” The warriors discussed in a low tone.
Austin swept his gaze across everyone before his gaze fell on the 20th Squad.
“20th Squad, Zack Lockwood will join you as a 6th member,” Austin said to them.
The 20th Squad was surprised.
The Team consists of all young male warriors.
It’s different from other Squads who have more than one female warrior.
Here, the 20th Squad is a young one.
The Captain is Commander Rank Warrior and the rest of the four warriors are SSS-ELITE Rank Warriors.
It might be the only squad without General Rank Warrior.
“Zack, go to them,” Master Austin said.
Hearing that I nodded to him before walking towards the 20th Monster Hunting Squad.
The Captain of the 20th Squad seems a little older than me.
But the other four warriors might be one or two years older.
“Hi, I’m Dan, the Commander Rank Warrior.” “They are Rick, Neil, Alexon and Cleon,” He introduced me to others.
I said “Hi” to everyone.
Everyone seems to be stronger.
None of them were average.
I found gazes from other Squad members as well.
“Alright, I’m going to talk about the Special Task right now,” Austin said.
“You are going to a small secret land where the population of the flesh-cutting mantis has grown beyond the limit.
Our leader has given a task to the main elders to gather Hunting Squads to reduce the population of this monster mantis.” “Your job is to kill the monsters along the way.
When enough numbers were reached.
I’ll call you back,” After saying that he asked all captains of 20 Teams to step forward.
When the 20 Captains stepped forward.
He gave them small black tokens to distribute to their teams.
He gave the 20th Team Captain Dan 6 tokens including for Zack Lockwood.
The Captains retreated and started distributing the tokens.
I received a small black token from Dan, which I put inside the storage ring.
When the distributor was done.
“Keep the tokens safe.
Note that it can record your killings.
And It’s the only thing that can allow you to return,” After saying that, Austin turned around to face a Black space.
He used his power to open the secret passage.
Buzz!
A small path opens, which leads to a secret land.
“Each Team entered one by one,” Austin said.
Hearing that, the 1st Squad stepped forward and started walking towards the passage.
When the 5 warriors entered the passage.
They disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Then the 2nd stepped forward to go inside.
One by one the team starts to disappear.
When it was the turn of the 20th Team.
Captain Dan stepped forward to enter.
The Team members behind started following him.
Seeing that I followed as well.
“Zack, don’t go deep inside the territory.
Hunt only in the outer area,” Master Austin’s voice reached my ears.
I nodded to him before entering the path.
When I appeared on this site, I found myself falling from the sky.
The end of the secret passage appeared in the mid-air.
Then, I immediately used my flight ability to slow down the falling before stabilizing myself.
Just a few feet above the ground surface.
I was able to stand in mid-air without falling.
Sigh!
A sigh escapes from my mouth.
I swept my gaze across the surroundings.
“What kind of place is this?” I asked myself with excitement.
Growing up, I went to specially built monster zones for training.
Then I went to the Saw Scale Viper Academy where I got chances to visit the Twin Mountains, Canyons, and other places to progress further.
Then I went to the inner post region later, where I got the opportunity to hunt monsters living beyond boundaries locked by barriers on all four sides.
Now, in the Tier-4 region.
I have come to this new place now.
Which appears to be a small world in itself.
I guess it must have been purposely separated from the mainland by powerful warriors.
The small world can’t form on its own.
I guess it must be related to incidents and wars in older eras.
After appreciating the new place, I touched down on the land below.
Master Austin asked me not to go beyond the outer area.
Which means something dangerous must be in a deeper area.
The other Hunting Squads got more General and Commander-rank warriors.
They can afford to go further.
This is the first time I’ve heard of a type of monster that can pose such a threat to the General Rank Warriors.
I found a tree to lay down underneath it.
Currently, there are no monsters around me.
So I decided to wait here.
