Chapter 322: Four Progenitors (1/2)

”Headmaster, if this continues we will not be able to hold on!” One of the teachers said while he was reinforcing the barrier.

It took seven teachers just to form this barrier but they're just barely holding on. This was bad news. They needed at least an hour or two to fully evacuate the students of their school. So, all they could do was hold the fort until everyone was in safe zone.

”Where is Song?” The headmaster asked. He was talking about Teacher Song.

”He is still under calculation process, so I bet he won't be out until he finishes his job.” A teacher answered with sweat running down his face.

”Dammit.” The headmaster couldn't help but curse under his breath. He needed Song for something right now, yet he was still unavailable even during this crisis, ”Have those alumni that we sought for help answered the letter?”

He was talking about the three alumni who reached the of peak level of this world.

”They haven't.” A lady teacher shook her head, ”But the past graduates will be coming for sure even if you don't ask for them.”

This didn't make him relieved even a bit. The enemies this time were very powerful and they needed people who would stand with them battling these monsters.

”Activate the dark crystal!” The headmaster gritted his teeth and said. They couldn't just wait here for someone to save their asses. They needed to do something.

The two remaining people who were idle immediately acknowledged this order and went a hundred meters back.

”Activate!” Then, they touched the sky. Soon, it revealed a big crystal filled with darkness inside. The dark crystal was in diamond shape and if you look at it, it was like a precious gemstone.

”Open!” The two shouted, and the dark crystal glowed up with black light. Afterwards, it shot a beam of black light towards where First Cloud was!

”Boom!” Unfortunately, the hit didn't reach First Cloud as a barrier had been formed.

”Futile resistance.” First Cloud shook her head and said, ”You know the outcome of this battle will be resulting to your deaths, yet you are still fighting back needlessly.”

She paused, laughed, and added, ”I know that you're just buying time for your students to escape, but please don't underestimate the power of Black Cloud. It's more than you can imagine.”

Hearing this, the headmaster was a bit terrified. Though he knew that their plan would soon be in the light, he didn't expect it to be this soon!

”Increase the energy of the dark crystal! It's okay to run everything out of it!” The headmaster said in a hurry. He knew that increasing the energy consumption of the crystal would make the effect time be shortened by a great deal. But he had no choice either.

If he didn't do everything, the academy would soon fall down.

”I told you that this is all useless. Resistance is useless. Your academy is doomed to fall tonight.” First Cloud smiled like a devil and said.

”I doubt about that.” Suddenly, a voice rang out everyone's ears which got the attention. Soon, four figures emerged from the void.
