61 Killing Intent Descends! (1/2)
Another document was attached to the emergency call-back letter that Wang Baole received. It stated that three days ago, in the Dharmic Armament faculty of Ethereal Dao College, trouble occurred among the students who stayed behind over the holidays.
It was a serious matter warranting immediate action from the College Discipline Department. Therefore, since Wang Baole was the only Head Prefect of the Dharmic Armament faculty, it was necessary for him to return.
If issues like that occurred in other faculties, the Head Prefect who lived nearest to the college would be asked to return, but in the Dharmic Armament faculty, the status and power that Wang Baole had attained also came with a certain level of responsibility.
Wang Baole clearly understood that it was his duty.
This is the challenge of being a Head Prefect. You have to give up on your personal time in order to serve the masses.
Without further delay, he explained the situation to his parents on the very day. Even though his parents could not bear to have him depart, they understood that their son had matured and sent him to the airport.
As there were still several days before the new semester started, the aircraft from Ethereal Dao College had not arrived. Wang Baole wanted to return to the Dao College in the shortest time possible; thus, he could only choose the smaller aircraft returning to Ethereal City.
Although the tickets were not cheap, he could reclaim his expenses from the Dao College. With his parents bidding him farewell, Wang Baole bought the earliest flight out and was in the air after half an hour.
Small aircrafts that shuttled people between two cities were definitely not as safe as the larger aircrafts like those from Ethereal Dao College. However, as long as no major disruptions arose, everything could still proceed smoothly.
After all, all the flights were regularly assessed to ensure that the flight paths remained clear and accessible.
Sitting in his cabin, Wang Baole yawned.
The long holidays had allowed him to completely relax. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the night sky outside the window.
Even if this small aircraft flew faster, it would still take about five days for me to arrive.
Thinking that, Wang Baole lay on his bed in the aircraft and drifted off to sleep.
The second morning, Wang Baole walked out of the cabin and stretched as he looked at the other passengers on board.
There were at most a little over ten passengers, of which seven to eight of them were clearly businessmen traveling between the two cities. The rest of the passengers looked like ordinary men and women, and there were two or three who were a similar age to him. There was a fatty on board as well, who passionately greeted Wang Baole upon noticing him.
After they exchanged greetings, Wang Baole entered the dining area for his meal. He was bored after that and relaxed on the deck, overlooking the landscape beneath.
This aircraft should fly faster. Moving further in this direction, one will arrive at the Pond Cloud Rainforest. Wang Baole recalled his father's description of the mountain ranges as he looked at them sweeping past.
It's a pity that my capabilities are still insufficient now. If not, I would really love to visit those sites. Wang Baole shook his head regrettably. He was clear that numerous ferocious monsters lurked in the wilderness. Even though he had attained the level of Pulse Enrichment, there was still a high likelihood of him dying if he met such a beast. The archaeological facility that his father was in now would have several hundred staff protected by numerous guards in order for their trip to be safe.
Wang Baole knew full well that more manpower was needed, but he was reluctant to let others know about the site. He sighed as he planned to visit the place once he attained the highest level of Pulse Enrichment and had prepared more Dharmic artifacts and pills.
As he was about to return to the cabin to rest, all of a sudden, he noticed a pocket of light permeating through the sky ahead!
Directly ahead of the zooming aircraft was a dark glow, spanning half a mile, that resembled a large metal plate!
It had appeared too suddenly, and the aircraft did not have enough time to avoid it. Wang Baole's eyes widened as the aircraft crashed into it.
The sound of the crash was earth-shaking!
An indescribably powerful turbulence exploded from the aircraft immediately.
”What happened?”
”Is this how you steer the aircraft?”
Everything happened too suddenly, causing everyone on board to moan. At the same time, under the impact of the collision, the head of the aircraft broke in two.
Due to the high speed with which the aircraft was traveling, the debris flew with immense energy and was like shooting stars crashing and perforating numerous other parts of the aircraft!
