30 GrandMaster (1/2)
”Reporting to vice Captain, there was no daily report from the guards who were assigned to the entrance of the cave!” A Level 5 Spirit reported to his higher up, a level 7 Spirit.
”Hmm! I got it. Keep up the good job!” The level 7 Spirit, 'Merit', nodded and waved his subordinate away.
Once his subordinate left, Merit left to find his boss, the level 9 Spirit. He transversed through numerous twists and turns, finally stopping before an exotically decorated room. Unlike the other parts of the cave which were dimly lighted by moonstone, this place was more brighter and more luxurious. After all, they could not expect a level 9 Spirit to live his life in the prison.
”Mmh! I see. I guess we have intruders for the first time in a century. How interesting! I wonder which brave soul wanted to challenge us?” The Level 9 Spirit, Maxwel, laughed gently upon listening to Merit's report.
”Captain, What do we do now?” Merit lowered his head and asked in a low voice. He did not dare voice his opinions out and respectfully inquired his Captain's thoughts.
Give a suggestion to his captain? Merit did not want to lose his head! He did not have the qualifications!
”Since they have killed ours, I am 90% sure that their target is our prison. They were able to kill all of our guards without letting a single one escape, so I am sure that they must have sufficient strength or some uncommon methods, either way, all we have to do is increase our security. From now on, increase the number of patrols and you three take personal charge of it.” Maxwel gave out his orders with a smile.
”Yes Captain!” Merit accepted his orders without showing any emotion. He did not dare show an expression.
Exiting his Captain's quarters, Merit sighed in relief. Every time he reported back to his Captain it seemed as if his life was in extreme danger. If Merit did not have strong control over his mouth and his face, he would have been killed long ago.
Spirits were cowardly creatures! They would easily betray their parents to save themselves! Precisely because of this, the Higher Up Spirits would never allow their subordinates to have different thoughts.
If Merit had voiced out his opinions in front of Maxwel, and if Merit's thoughts differed from Maxwel's, Merit would have no choice but to say goodbye to this world.
Precisely because of this reason, one must control their mouth and face when faced with their bosses!
”Now, I better follow Captain's words!” Merit hurriedly left to carry out the orders. Their 12th Squad oversaw the outermost part of the prison! Any intruders must pass through them to reach deeper into the cave. They must catch the intruders before they could wreak havoc!
....
”Is it me, or did the patrols suddenly become more frequent?” Little Feng's brows creased into a frown as she carefully avoided the third patrol in the last ten minutes.
”Hehe! It seems like they found us out! Feng come here, we are going to use this opportunity to increase your level.” Hei Wang deduced the situation before pulling the invisible Feng Xue'er into his arms. She might be invisible, but she did not evade his Spirit Eyes.
