"Return and continue training!" Wu Zhangkong's voice was icy as usual.
"Teacher, aren't you going to blame us?" Tang Wulin couldn't help but ask out. He probably felt guilty since we caused this mess.
Wu Zhangkong gave him a quick glance. "Did all of you do anything wrong? Why would I blame you guys? Return to your training. You are not allowed to leave the Academy during the night anymore, rest days included."
Yea… sorry bud. I can't obey that. In fact, I'll be going out right after this, but I still had to pay him lip service.
"Yes!" The four of us shouted out. We returned to our rooms after that.
I cultivated my body inside the room for a while before deciding that enough time had passed. It was time to leave the school and find my to-be minion.
Working with the natural forces from the King's Wisdom, I slipped out of the Academy even though I wasn't supposed to.
Out in the streets, I made my way to the hospital. I had obtained enough information about Guang Biao to know which hospital he frequented when he was injured.
You could call it stalking, but I call it being prepared.
Arriving at the hospital he frequented, I looked around in hopes of finding the front desk. I needed to know which room he was in.
I found it relatively quickly. A nurse was sitting behind the front desk tapping on a keyboard. I needed to knock her out in order to access the records.
Before I did so, I had to make sure what I did wasn't going to be recorded. I used the King's Wisdom to detect three cameras in the vicinity. However, I only needed to move to a blindspot to avoid the other two. That meant I only had to make one camera stopped functioning.
Now it was time to knock the nurse out. I took out a small coin from my pocket and aimed the nurse. With a flick of my thumb, I fired.
[Railgun]
The nurse was knocked out before she could even react. I sighed as I made my way over to her, walking through the blind spots of the other two cameras. She was just at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Moving behind the front desk, I accessed the computer in an attempt to find out Guang Biao's room. Success. He was in a VIP room on one of the higher floors.
I put my hand on the nurses head. Using the King's Wisdom, I made sure to erase her memories of the last 3 minutes. I didn't want to put a big gap in her memories but I also didn't want her to remember seeing me.
Before I left, I decided to apologise to her for knocking her out. With my hand still on her forehead, I converted a bit of my stamina to vital energy to resolve her of his illnesses. She was a relatively healthy person so this injection of vital energy would just increase her lifespan.
I searched for the stairs of the hospital. Finding it, I made my way up. Guang Biao's room was pretty high up, but with how much I cultivated my body, climbing up the stairs was no different from a stroll in a park.
I didn't have to fry the cameras at the stairs. The cameras had a lot of blind spots there so it was easy for me to up.
When I reached the VIP floor, I found that the emergency door had been locked. I wasn't that surprised. This was to prevent exactly what I was doing at this moment.
The doors were pretty sturdy too. Unless a person made a lot of noise and alerted security, they wouldn't be able to get through.
Unfortunately, they met someone like me.
Abusing the powers of ferromagnetism, I unlocked the steel locks. With a click, I had access to the floor where Guang Biao was on.
Opening the door a little, I sent soundwaves to check out if there were any cameras through echolocation. There were two that would detect me if I went out.
I used the King's Wisdom to lower the viewing angle of the two cameras. It had to be done slowly, so it wouldn't alert the guards surveying.
As soon as I felt that they were not able to see the ceiling, I created two intensely localised magnetic fields on two pieces of paper on the floor. Then, I flung one at each camera
The moment the pieces of paper obstructed the view of the camera, I jumped up to the ceiling as fast as I could, sticking to it with the powers of King's Wisdom. If anyone from my past life were to see what I was doing right now, their first thought would be, 'Is that Spiderman?'
I slowly crawled on the ceiling to Guang Biao's room. When I arrived, I used the King's Wisdom to detect the infrared light in the room through the walls.
Peering through, I found that Guang Biao was already awake. Obviously he was still bed-ridden, I didn't expect that would wake up this quickly. I had severely underestimated the recovery rate of a Spirit Emperor.
Not only that, there were three other people in the room as well. It appeared that they were Guang Biao's grunts.
You would think that having more people there would be disadvantageous for me. If they were Spirit Masters, you would be right. However, the three of them weren't. Hence, they had to use Spirit Devices as a means of protecting Guang Biao.
If those guys weren't there, I would have to take a risk to rush in and [Railgun] Guang Biao. However, since they were… well…
Didn't someone say that art is an explosion?
The Spirit Devices held by two of the men exploded, instantly knocking the three men standing close together unconscious with heavy injuries.
At the same time, the last intact Spirit Device flew over to Guang Biao before exploding as well. This was done through a different usage of attraction.
Guang Biao couldn't react in time due to his injuries so he was left unconscious for the second time today by the last Spirit Device exploding.
Before the soundwaves of the explosion could leave the room, I manipulated the soundwaves with the King's Wisdom before making it fȯrċɨbŀƴ disperse.
Despite needing a lot of words to explain, this all happened in a fraction of a second.
Whew. Now that took a lot out of me. In fact, I was only bȧrėly keeping myself stuck to the ceiling by using three-quarters of my spirit energy to recover stamina.
I flung up the litter on the floor to block the view of the camera again before dashing into the room at top speed.
I won't go into the details but Guang Biao's probably gonna have to take out those six digits to pay for this.
I waltzed towards Guang Biao before putting my hand on his forehead. Then, I changed my image in his head from hatred, to loyalty.
And done. It was as easy as that.
As I was about to leave, I noticed something. His neck… I could feel something there.
I put my hand on his neck, trying to sense whatever was there. When I made contact, the thing that was there felt like it was tangible, so I pulled.
The moment I did, Guang Biao seemed to age 10 years in an instant. Seeing this, I became surprised at this outcome before I realised what I had just pulled out.
I had just pulled out a large chunk of his vital energy.
Crap! This guy's vitality was already pretty badly damaged from his fight against Wu Zhangkong. If I didn't put this vital energy back in immediately, he would definitely die.
I couldn't let him die yet. He was a useful piece in my plans.
That was a bit scary. I almost killed the minion I had worked so hard to get under my control. I was curious as well though. I would have to experiment more with vital energy. It seemed that there were more applications of it.
I also went and mind-controlled the three henchmen of Guang Biao. The explosions had injured them pretty badly as they were normal humans. Hence, I healed them with vital energy.
Although they were a bunch of scumbags, they were going to be the minions of my minion. With that in mind, I couldn't just leave them for dead.
After that, I sneaked out of the hospital before making my way back to the Academy.
As I made my way back, I wanted to shout with joy.
It all went, just according to keikaku.
