Chapter 671 Let's Hit That Dark Academy



Ibra already informed everyone about what happened at the mountain peak area, ending up getting all of them excited as William was going to join them.

But as two more weeks passed, there was less than two months left for the date of the contest. William knew how impatient his vices were, but he got no choice in that.

His casual visit here ended up from being just a place they'd pass in a few days into an adventure that took roughly a month. And now he had to go to the academy and see what that bastard prepared for him out there before heading to the kingdom's capital.

The only reassuring thing was that the capital got a direct connection at the portal area. And that meant they could just come back here and take a portal directly towards the capital.

When others learnt about this, their anxiety got lowered. But William knew he had to move after these two weeks.

"That bastard must have prepared a trap for me there…" William didn't just spend his time training and resting. His Charley got damaged in the last fight, and he had to rebuild it.

This time he built not only one weapon but two. According to his current spirit power, he could control up to three weapons at the same time. And when he'd become a gold master, he'd control four.

He took inspiration from the Hellhounds he just fought against, and made a weapon like them. He considered making a tank weapon, like the turtles he struggled against before. Yet he wasn't the type to lean towards defence or something.

He rebuilt Charley again and added to it Lucas. He missed that master and decided to name the second weapon in his honour. Charley was the same collected over his body as a chest piece. As for Lucas, he made it divide into two shoulder guards.

The look of William now changed to be like ferocious masters in the outer world. He knew this wasn't enough, and he needed to cover up his body with three more weapons at least.

As for his damaged weapons, he had no time or manpower to make new weapons. So, he asked Lara to purchase these weapons for him.

He already got extra dark gold weapons, but they weren't like the ones he lost before.

"You are finally out," after staying in the Lost City for one week, he finally returned back to the surface.

Right now, there was a door specifically for his guild. He used it and appeared in the main branch of the guild in the inner city.

The current city was divided into inner and outer city, while the scenes of damage were already cleared. Anyone walking in the city would get shocked to see the extravagant buildings and nice-looking bases and different facilities of the city.

Especially those who used to come here and utilise the portals, they got shocked by the grand change this city experienced. The city changed and not only got bigger, but it also had many facilities and services that masters here could use.

The auction houses started business by selling lots of special and unique cores of the Hellhounds and other monsters killed at the city walls. Such news spread over, and a fever was a normal result.

There was no other place who got such cores and materials, and that made the city bustling with activity, getting overcrowded while business started to flourish.

As Lara said it, the disaster that befell the city turned into such a blessing. The city was now earning what it was earning in a month before in just a single day! Or even less than that! It was indeed quite shocking, but everyone was excited by such news.

All the forces here got their own businesses starting to give different services to masters. Not to mention Lara and others decided before to take ten percent of all the profit everyone would gain every month and distribute it equally over the forces controlling the city.

Lara did that move to help the newly established forces to bypass the expected early stages of financially suffering. Yet none expected such a reaction in just two weeks after the grand war.

William now was outside the central building inside the main branch of his guild. It was the same as the central building back at the Fox Lair. in front of him, all of his vices were lying in wait for him to end his closed training session.

Trying to get him using Bullets didn't work as he surrounded himself with arrays to seal any outside communication. And when they sent masters down there to find him, they failed as he used good concealment arrays.

"I told you to wait for me for a week," William rolled his eyes while Ibra waved his glaive in the air a couple of times.

"I can't believe you went there to make these shiny pieces of metal! If you wanted, we could have asked any artisan in the city to do it for you, tsk!"

"Let's speak while walking," William decided to ignore Ibra whenever the latter said something out of context like he used to joke all the time, "summon everyone, and inform all the forces about the hour of our movement… We'll move out in ten hours."

"At last!"

"Let's get rid of this dark academy fast then head towards the capital."

Everyone expressed their happiness either by words or by their laughs and cheers. William smiled and added as he led them out of the guild branch:

"Make sure everyone is ready, this isn't a simple adventure. I'm going to meet up with Lara, so you need to finish all the preparations and meet me up at the portal area in less than ten hours from now."

William was now standing in front of the main gate leading to his guild branch. This place was now different from when William visited it before.
