Chapter 518 Seeking Asylum



From MC's perspective:

After having breakfast, we separated again. But we promised to meet at noon. Nowadays, we have a daily schedule of going to monster zones. 

So I got closer to them. Then I headed toward the dean's office. 

A few minutes later,

I arrived before the dean's office. After entering inside, I saw her working behind the desk as well.

But looking at her expression. A frown appeared on my face. Dean's expression seems solemn.

Rebecca noticed Zack's reaction. After closing down the file. She looked at him.

"Zack, do you need something?" She asked.

Her question brought me back to reality. 

"Dean, what happened to the high peak mountain?" I asked.

A quick glint flashes in Rebecca's eyes. She understood. Then she revealed a small smile on her face.

"Good for you."

"The Red Moon Tower didn't take any action," She said.

Hearing that a look of disbelief appeared on my face. What is she saying? 

Before I could ask for an explanation. 

She added further,"According to our sources, their elders judged that it might be the action of some trespasser."

Hearing that, I sighed inwardly. I did good by not leaving behind any traces. It worked out well for me.

"So I can go back now?" I asked with some expectation. My purple essence is dried out now. 

If I want to kill some monsters in the afternoon, then I have to gain the minimum purple essence. 

Rebecca chuckled. She thinks Zack is still not aware of the severity. 

"I said they didn't take it seriously. But that doesn't mean the high peak mountain is without any protection."

"As far as I know, a SS-Elite warrior is guarding the place now. If you go to that place now, then you will get caught easily," Rebecca said without blinking her eyes.

"SS-Elite Warrior," I gulped my saliva in fear.

Almost all the elder level figures have at least SS-Elite Warriors. So basically an elder is guarding that place now.

I sighed inwardly. I actually had great expectations to visit that place again. But it's a pity, I have to forget about it.

"Dean, is there any other place?" I asked.

Rebecca shook her head. 

She said,"Right now, you need to stay put. The unknown leader of the sharp daggers is still on the run."

"The faction heads are still outside. So don't make any request right now. When everything settles down, I'll find a new place for you to cultivate lightning essence," Rebecca said.

Hearing that I nodded my head in response.

Because it can't be helped. I have to agree with her words. Then I left her office.

Meanwhile,

The Sharp dagger leader finally found some place to hide. He is currently staying inside a cave structure. 

But his body condition is not right. He leaned his back on the wall and began to observe this body. 

Slowly, he recalled the recent events in his mind.

After blowing out the hideout, Vik fled without turning back. But after a few seconds, he found someone catching up to him with breakneck speed. 

At that time he had thought about confronting him. But when the person got closer. He was scared sh!t. The person's pressure was scarier than him.

Without second thought, he had burnt his blood to increase his strength. As a result, he exploded with great speed. Because of it, he was able to escape successfully from the enemy.

But such explosive strength was not without cost. His cultivation base fell down. He is a Super Elite Warrior right now.

Feeling the lack of power in his body. He revealed a bitter smile on his face. On top of it, he had suffered a deep injury as well.

He was reduced to such a state because of one person. "Zack Lockwood," He gritted his teeth in anger. 

Vik's heart is boiling with rage. It had taken him several years to build the sharp dagger organization. Not only that he had to look for rogue warriors to join his force.

After all those efforts, he had developed the organization to some extent. But now it's all gone. He was forced to destroy his own organization. 

His eyes flickering with killing intent. "Zack Lockwood, I will kill you," He swore in his heart.

His life effort was destroyed. His base fell back. He had no place to go. Now he has only a target behind his back.

Vik made a firm decision at this moment. He decides to go back to his place. And hide near the gorge. 

When everything settles down, he will look for an opportunity to kill Zack Lockwood. 

Suddenly, a good idea comes to mind.

If everything goes according to his plan, not only will he leave this place. He can get asylum in that place as well. 

He is thinking about the Giant Tower. The Giant Tower had offered him an artifact as a reward. But right now, he has lost this luxury. 

He is planning to seek asylum in the Giant Tower as a reward to kill Zack Lockwood.

Then suddenly he began to check the names. Finally, his eyes set on the Giant Tower representative's contact.

Seeing that a hint of relief flashes in his eyes.

"Finally, with this my revenge is possible," Vik said with a laugh.

He then tried to establish the connection. 

A few seconds later,

The connection was established. The Giant Tower's intelligence department's member is attending the call.

"Giant Tower," Vik said with some hesitation. 

He doesn't know who is attending the call. If it's a high level member, then it would be good for him.

When he heard the confirmation from the other end. He sighed in relief. Then he revealed his name and requested to contact an elder level figure.

On the other hand, the Giant Tower member wasted no time in contacting his superiors. 

Shortly after,

The Giant Tower's elder who is responsible for the intelligence department learnt about the news.

He quickly took over and continued the conversation. For a moment, the elder was not sure of the other party. 

But when the conversation started. He immediately realized the other person is none other than but the leader of sharp daggers.

Everyone in the Giant Tower thought. The Sharp Daggers organization was completely gone. 

Because the action of the Saw Scale Viper Academy was swift. Everyone had thought their killing request was exposed. 

But so far no such information has been acquired by them. They had thought that matter would disappear soon.

But here right now, the elder's eyes are shone with bright light. He received a request from the leader Vik.

This time there was no loss for them. They got the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

When the conversation ended. The elder immediately shared the news to the headmaster.

A few seconds later,

The Giant Tower Headmaster accepted Vik's request. He even allowed every source of the channel to help Vik. 

The Giant Tower has spies in Viper City. From time to time they are informing everyone. Including the recent action taken by the Saw Scale Viper Academy.

If Zack Lockwood ever comes out, they will share the news to Vik. And with Vik's strength, it's easy for him to take down Zack Lockwood.

The Giant Tower Headmaster was pleased by the news. Not only he doesn't have to give high grade artifacts. But Vik can fulfill their request without any excessive demand.

Considering the state of Vik, he will be even more sincere in his job. Now they all wait for Zack to appear. Then it would be a matter of time before they hear good news.

"Ha...Ha....Ha....," The Giant Tower Headmaster let out a hysterical laughter. 

Meanwhile,

The leader Vik grinned happily. He just ended his call with the Giant Tower Headmaster. He didn't expect the Headmaster himself to attend the call.

But he was glad anyway. He thinks it's good to make things clear with him. Since he was hoping to get asylum. The Giant Tower Headmaster is the right person to talk to.

The Giant Tower Head allowed the asylum. Now he can focus on the task. Apart from seeking asylum, he also requested for a healer.

His current state of body is in worse condition. Only after getting some treatment, he can move around freely.

Time passed,

The spies inside the Viper City have arranged for a healer. Some healers will do anything for money. So the spies have offered a hefty sum of money to treat the patient.

A day later,

A healer left the Viper City along with the two Super Elite Warriors. These two Super Elite Warriors are spies of the Giant Tower.

But they are doing work under a different name. 

A few hours later,

Three of them managed to find out the location. 

The leader Vik's condition became worse. Any delay in treatment will cause him to lose his base further. Already he was in the Super Elite stage. So he doesn't want his base to fall back further.

When he was lost in thoughts. He saw the presence of three people. When they got closer, he realized they were helpers.
