Chapter 305: Start Of The Examination

There was a sudden thumping sound as the Sky Cruiser landed softly on the ground, at a clear grass field.

The whole journey was oddly quiet and both the students and the protectors were both at edge since they didn't know if there would be another type of attack.

The previous fight had being etched into the minds of the students which was why they were quite edgy through out the entire journey.

The flight was without any disruption which was as expected since the old man had made quite the sacrifice leaving all by himself with the evolution serum.

Also, he must have posted some type of evidence out there that diverted the attention of any possible pursuers towards himself and not the Sky Cruiser.

And for insurance, he must have noted out the fact that David: Mr White's new disciple was also in the Sky Cruiser which was even more of a deterrence.

Although, it was enough for the sky cruiser to be safe, during their one week journey, quite a few powerful but shady figures had scanned the entire ship with different kinds of supernatural abilities and Gadgets of the reconnaissance series.

But those shady figures didn't act since there was no one really powerful enough to protect the Evolution serum from being snatched.

The students in the ship weren't able to sense their presence but the captain, Paul and his crew members were able to sense it and when they landed at their destination, they were finally able to sigh in relief l.

As soon as soon as they landed, the students stormed out of the Sky Cruiser in a rush. The journey had been very stifled and stuffy for them and finally, they were able to breathe in fresh air.

David got off the Ship. Preoccupied with his thoughts. He packed up his stuffs and his loot in his backpack while those that couldn't enter the backpacks like the weapons and some other things, he held them in his hand right hand, properly covered and then turned to leave in the opposite direction Instead of heading toward the direction of the assignment.

As he left, deep into the jungle, numerous pairs of eyes locked onto him. Some of the students had already figured out a bit about the situation when David had being called into the control room.

And since he was a bit famous for placing first during the event, some instantly recognised him and even remembered his name, and with the way the Jared's father had roared out his name, it didn't take long for quite a few of them to figure out the whole situation about what had happened.

There were many students that had quickly formed groups of ten amongst each other to complete the mission.

A particular group of seven figures gathered a few meters away from the landing spot of the sky cruiser, not bothered about the now leaving ship.

A young, slim, dark skinned man stood at the front of the group.

Although it wasn't very obvious at first the others stood behind the dark skinned man ad though admitting he was their leader.

A slightly fat young man walked beside the dark skinned man and said. "Boss, for a Phantom beast master powerhouse to want that kid dead and even willing to wipe us all out if the professors didn't release him. It means that kid has some thing really precious with him that the Phantom Beast master was willing to take the risk to offend a our institute."

As the fat man's voice faded, the others appeared deep in thoughts but before a the others were allowed to think too deeply into things, a blond man brown eyes sneered as he retorted.

"if he still had the item with him, do you think we would have made it without the protection of that old man?"

He then continued. "It's obvious the old man has snatched whatever precious item he has with him otherwise, he would be this safe."

The fat young man was furious end his checks jiggled as he pointed at the blond young man.

"You are always trying to find fault in everything I do or say! Tell me honestly Erix, do you like me!?"

The atmosphere suddenly froze and the blond young man body shook. And his face reddened either from anger or from embarrassment.

But from the slight steam rising up from his head, it wouldn't take a genius to figure out the blond man was really angry.

"You stupid Fatty!!!" Erix exploded out in fury and he shouted loudly in anger. As he was about to react violently, a soft voice rang out in his ears and he forcefully reigned in his anger.

"Quiet! The both of you." Erix immediately fell silent and the momentum he was building from anger faded but his face was still flushed from anger. While the others only watched quietly with amusements.

"What do you think we should do? Felicity." The dark skinned leader of the group turned towards the only red haired lady in their group and the others also turned to face her.

Felicity wore an indifferent expression on her expression on her face and appeared a bit in thought but then, she replied. "For him to be pursued by a powerhouse, it means he had something precious with him but since the powerhouse hadn't shown up for it as of yet, it means the precious item had been taken by our Mr Cain.

But tats doesn't mean David doesn't have other items that can be beneficial to us. It's best if we personally interrogate him ourselves before the other groups does." As she said this, she faced towards a certain group that was only a few hundred meters away from them.

The group also looked at them and their gazes clashed and sparks seem to fill the atmosphere and other groups of students seem to be able to feel it as they moved out of the way.

The leader of that group suddenly snorted, dispelling the pressure forming from them and spoke to his teammates as they turned to leave. Going at the general direction David had taken.

"We need to act fast."

Erix said to the group leader as they watched that particular group of students leave.

The dark skinned leader remained silent, but strangely, on one disturbed him. Neither did Felicity, Erix or the fat young man disturbed the leader.

Slowly the dark skinned young man closed his eyes and if one could see through frequencies of sound, one would be able to sense as five large waves of frequencies spreaded out from him and shot forwards with the speed of sound, towards the direction the other group and taken which also coincides with the place David had also taken.

The waves entered through the forest and disappeared deep into the jungle. Almost a minute later, two out of the five waves returned while the rest should have being destroyed by some sort of powerful monster.

It was then the dark skinned man opened open up his eyes an spoke only two words. "Let's go."

He turned towards a completely different direction from David had gone and then started walking towards that direction, the others followed him without hesitation as they had been informed about his ability before hand.

• * * * * *

David placed his hands in the ground and closed his eyes as he tried moving his muscles and blood path according to the frequency of the Earth Swim ability.

Suddenly, there was a puff sound as five small veins simultaneously burst out, spraying out blood on his cloth and onto the ground.

David sighed softly. It was still a failure. Since he hadn't yet figured out the complete similarities between his new body system and his old human body system.

David dusted his hands free from the dust and controlled the veins that had just burst to lock up, closing the veins to avoid more blood flowing out.

Using the sword at hand, he dug a large hole half a meter wide and placed his things there, including his loot and some other things taking much space in his backpack.

After that, he buried it and turned to leave. His ears suddenly flicked like around like an animals.

He gazed at the spot he had just buried his stuff and realise that it wouldn't be easy to discover that something had just being buried.

With that, his body flashed as he used the Cyclonic technique as a motion technique and moved to a distant place a few hundred meters away from his current position in a few seconds.

He then stood there as though he was waiting for someone.

In just a bit less than a minute, the bushes suddenly rustled softly as though a light breeze rushed past them and seven figures emerged from the forest.

They moved quietly through the forest without making a single sound. But suddenly, they paused as they caught sight of a figure leaning casually against a large tree with his arms folded. His fingers slightly tapping rhythmically against his arm.

It was the David they had been pursing.
