651 Enlightenment! (1/2)
”Let's go!”
Su Hao took huge steps and left.
As for the others, they hesitated for a moment before eventually leaving too.
Since the situation had progressed to this stage, what other choice did they have? Could they try complaining to the higher-ups? Which higher up can they complain to? Their only higher up is Sun Yaohui!
Could they challenge Sun Yaohui's authority?
Can't you see those three students still lying down on the ground?!
Due to the school rules, Sun Yaohui can't make a move on them, but if one dares show any resistance to Sun Yaohui, nobody can imagine what kind of death you will experience!
Boom!
A fighter aircraft silently arrived and landed, waiting for them outside the front door. After everyone went up the aircraft, it left. Tian Long Court's disciple trial officially began.
”They left.”
Sun Yaohui just looked at the leaving shadow in silence, ”I wonder how many people would be able to return this time.”
”Which batch of Tian Long Court's trial isn't like this?” A girl's figure appeared beside Sun Yaohui, ”You still have the mood to care about other people? Your talent isn't like Chen Yifeng. Although the accumulation phase is easy, trying to exceed the threshold to enter the domain realm is extremely difficult. Aren't you worried?”
”Worried?”
A haze appeared within Sun Yaohui's eyes for a second as he muttered to himself, ”What's there to worry about. This is the origin ability era after all...”
Buzz!
A green light flashed.
Some mysterious dark green liquid was tumbling within his hands.
”The game is just getting started!”
”Who cares about Chen Yifeng? One day, I will crush him completely!”
...
In the aircraft.
Su Hao and the 11 other students were reading their mission.
This is their very first group mission. There is only one goal, killing every berserk beast in Gaoyuan City. Once this mission is completed, everyone would automatically become Tian Long Court's disciples.
As for the condition...
One needs to be alive!
Although they have their mission, they were clueless regarding what to do next. Usually, they would only take part in individual missions or join a team which already has a strong esper to lead them. They have not been in this current situation before with 12 students with equivalent strength staring at each other like retards.
”We need a leader.”
A student stepped forward and revealed his powerful aura, ”Everyone has their own opinion, but without a leader, we will just be like headless chickens randomly running around. If you all don't mind, let me be the temporary leader.”
”On what qualifications do you have to become our leader?”
Another student stood up, ”With your mere strength, you still have the face to call yourself a leader?”
”True!”
Another student joined the debate.
Soon, these few students began to exchange heated words among themselves, influencing others to join too. Since they can't make any attacks in the aircraft, they could only start a serious discussion on this issue of who should be their leader.
”...”
Su Hao sighed. This scene, he already predicted this would happen.
This Tian Long Court's trial isn't as simple as claiming the head of berserk beasts. If there is only one king-level beast, then everyone just needs to charge forward and it would suffer total defeat!
After all, king-level berserk beasts are equivalent to the peak of the professional realm!
Among the twelve students present here, excluding Su Hao who is a level nine professional esper, which one of them isn't at the peak of the professional realm? Even though the berserk beast might have the advantage in its physical body, to be attacked by twelve espers simultaneously, only death awaits it! However, the requirement for this to happen is that these twelve students can work together.
Su Hao looked at these clowns who were still quarreling amongst themselves and felt helpless.
Mankind's inferiority...
”What do you think of this mission?” Lie Shou looked at Su Hao and asked.
”Worrisome!”
Su Hao muttered, ”As of the situation in Gaoyuan City, I have done some research of it earlier. Some details are not included in the mission statement. The entire city is now disconnected from us, and there will definitely not be only one king-level beast there. Plus, the biggest problem is...”
”What?” Lie Shou was impatient to know his opinion.
”What if it's not a berserk beast?”
Su Hao suggested a scenario which doesn't have a high probability of occurring, ”If it's really just a random beast which just broke through recently, naturally that won't be an issue, but what if it's not just a berserk beast? Years ago, Gaoyuan City was cleared of king-level beasts so there shouldn't be any king-level beast appearing there now. Not to forget some secrets about the city...”
”This matter of Gaoyuan City is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface!” Su Hao's expression was a little grave.
Some words aren't supposed to be revealed, but the clues in the Zhang family did point to this city. With the sudden attack of berserk beasts in Gaoyuan City, it seemed to have given him some hints...
”I also have an uneasy feeling about this.”
Lie Shou agreed with Su Hao's opinion, ”However, this is what Tian Long Court's mission is about! After all, the trial always has a high mortality rate. If the mission given is simple, then that would be abnormal.”
”True.”
”After all, we are people who struggle to survive in the middle of life and death.”
Lie Shou calmly continued. It was just that his gaze on Su Hao was a bit strange, ”From my observation, you are not someone with a gloomy character. Why do you emit some sort of bitter and deep hatred vibe?”
”Bitter and harboring deep hatred?” Su Hao was stunned by that description.
”Yup, isn't your current state is like so? To be honest, if not for me meeting you in the past, I wouldn't even be trying to start a conversation with you.” Lie Shou continued, ”Although you have improved your strength and your temperament is stable, somehow, you give off a different vibe.”
”How is it different?” Su Hao frowned. He didn't realize anything of that.
”Let me think for a second.”
Lie Shou pondered for a bit and then summarized his thoughts, ”The former you made me feel that you were someone with a strong and positive self-confidence, but now you are not even close to a living being! This is the vibe which your body make others believe. Although your current aura is formidable, it has this kind of gloomy feel to it.”
”How do I describe it? Hmm, burst of negative energy.” Lie Shou finally gave it a name.
”Burst of negative energy...” Su Hao wiped of his beads of sweat.
