Chapter 495 Another Scheme
Battle Tower:
The wizard students are watching the Leader Board Rankings. Though they can't view the Trial on screen. But the changes in the Leaderboard Rankings can make them guess many things.
Everyone first thought that Vincent Carey's speed would be reduced on the 2nd day of the Trial. But surprisingly, Vincent has been keeping the same momentum.
When everyone saw Vincent clearing the 16th, 17th, and 18th floors in a few hours. Everyone sucked a cold breath of air.
The mood of Tony Burnett also fluctuated. He didn't expect Vincent to have the strength to clear this floor.
All the level-5 Wizard knows about the Core House Trail. Most of them usually fight against the Monster Species. And rarely against other kinds.
But even eliminating them it's not an easy thing. No average level-5 wizards can do that. Tony has a grudge against Vincent. It's necessary to know about Vincent's strengths.
He doesn't want to see a scenario. Where Vincent was alive even after getting hit by him.
The forbidden potion normally consumes the wizard's bloodline potential to raise strength. He is sure that Vincent won't survive his hands if it happens.
But right now the changes in leaderboard rankings cautioned him.
Half an hour later,
Vincent's name was shown again. He had cleared the 19th floor. And now he is going to enter the 20th floor.
Uproar~
The crowd let out an uproar. If Vincent clears this round, then he can continuously challenge the next round from tomorrow.
Some of the wizard students are already considering Vincent as an Elite Student.
Seeing the changes, Tomy's face changes drastically. Unlike others, he is almost certain that Vincent can clear the 20th floor.
There is not much difference between the 19th floor and the 20th floor. So Tony decided to leave before Vincent walked out.
His heart was already swelling up in anger. He doesn't want to lose his control. It might affect his plan.
If he fails to achieve success in the duel challenge, then the Burnett Clan is going to meet with disaster.
He knew the selfish nature of the higher-ups. He was like them some time ago. But when the danger comes to his clan. He wasn't able to accept reality.
With a lonely back, he started to walk back to the exit.
"Huh?"
Some of the bloodline wizards among the crowd recognized Tony Burnett. But none of them dared to walk forward to meet him.
There is an internal rumor going on. Tony Burnett is facing some difficulties. He is not acting like before. He rarely comes out for a walk.
So other bloodline wizards felt something was wrong and they chose to stay away from him.
Other wizards left the place after finding it boring. Vincent's clearance speed made them believe that he might clear the next floor with ease. So few people left.
While others wanted to see Vincent's Reaction.
The Taboo Hall,
There is a person who is looking at the changes in the Leaderboard Rankings with reddened eyes.
"Trash"
"All of them are trash," Mike Curtis said to himself.
In the morning, he had sent a few people to make some trouble. Instead of hindering Vincent Carey, they got scared away from him.
Now seeing Vincent's clearance speed. The morning failure comes to his rescue. "It's best to do it myself," He mumbled.
But Mike knows it's not good to offend the Sub-Taboo for no reason. His teacher will protect him in case of any danger.
But it doesn't mean he will support all of his activities.
There is no feud between the Taboo Hall and the Sub-Taboo Hall. Both of them belong to the same families.
So the higher-ups normally don't have that much grudge. Unlike the Bloodline Hall and the Elemental Hall.
He fears the teacher might scold him. That's why he thought about using other wizards. But their actions seem ineffective against Vincent Carey.
But who will trouble Vincent Carey other than the Elite Wizards? The Bloodline Hall will show some quietness because of Vincent Carey's current rankings.
So the deliberate action against him will be reduced further. "Harumph, he is having a good time," Mike said in his heart.
Mike is convinced that apart from him no one can deal with Vincent Carey. He knows the Bloodline Hall won't sit quietly. But he doesn't know when they will act.
And he didn't have patience for that. Right now, he doesn't want Vincent to succeed. His rankings are in danger.
Suddenly, a good idea comes to his mind. He hurriedly looked at the sci-fi watch and started to go through the contacts.
"Henry Barlow"
Finally, his gaze paused on the contact name. This person is an Elite student. He is a powerful level-5 Blazing Spear wizard. He is one of the reputed core house students in the Weapon Hall.
Some time ago, this person requested something from him. A quick gleam flashes in his eyes.
But at that time he was busy and didn't have time to talk to this person. So after getting the contact he walked away.
Right now a good plan formed in his mind. The next second, he contacted the person.
When the call was established. An excited voice sounded the next month.
"Hello, this is Henry. Who are you?"
A disdain flashes in Mike's eyes. But for his plan to succeed. He has to endure it now.
"Ahem, you are Henry Barlow. I'm Mike Curtis from the Taboo Hall."
"Last time, you requested to talk to me. Do you remember now?" Mine Curris replied.
Hearing that a surprised gasp can be heard from the other side of the call.
Hearing that Mike Curtis' lips curled a little. The fame of the Taboo Hall is no joke. The other part was stunned for so long.
After a few seconds, Henry's voice sounded.
"Senior, thanks for contacting me. Is that wanted to request a treasure from the senior?"
"A treasure?" A quick gleam flashes in his eyes. He wasn't much surprised. Because he had dealt with this kind of situation before.
Especially he had a connection with the Bloodline Hall. But it's normal for others to know about his connection.
"Oh, what do you want?" Mike asked.
"Senior, I want a piece of grade-6 lava ore. I'll exchange with similar grade treasure for that lava ore," Henry's anxious voice sounded from the other end of the call.
Mike Curtis squinted his eyes. He can already see where this is going. This person wants breakthrough material. From Grade-6 Material, a wizard can understand mysteries. It may also be called a rule.
A Grade-6 lava core might have a small amount of mysteries. And Henry Carlos' weapon magic contains flame power as well.
So the Grade-6 lava core might help him break through. Even if he understands 1% of the rules, he can easily become a Level-6 wizard.
"A future True House Wizard?" Mike said in his heart.
Which means Henry was at his limit. He is now ready to meet the breakthrough conditions. Unlike others, Mike knows a lot about the conditions and rules.
First from his background and then from his teacher. But he is not going to help him just like that.
"Uh, Senior?" Henry said.
Mike recovered his thoughts but he made a strange expression. At first, he thought this person might be a junior. But from the request he can tell that Henry might be an old student.
There is no need for him to address him as a Senior. But he is doing it for the Taboo Hall. For a second, Mike couldn't help but to feel proud.
But suddenly the image of Vincent Carey comes to mind. Unlike others, Vincent has been eyeing the Taboo Hall's beauty, Lara White.
How dare he make friends with Lara White? Mike gritted his teeth in anger. But he calmed down, recalling the current request.
"Henry, I'll try to find the Grade-6 Lava Ore. But before that you have to do something for me," Mike said with a smile on his face.
"What is it?" Henry asked. He was not polite at all. Right now, only Mike can help him.
"After some time, Vincent Carey will leave the Battle Tower. I want you to trouble him before he makes it to the dorm.'
"It would be better if you challenge him to a duel," Mike added further.
Henry Barlow was quiet for a moment. He is also aware of Vincent Carey. But Vincent's identity was not weak.
If he troubles him for no reason, he might offend their seniors. But after considering Mike's Taboo Hall background in mind.
Henry decides to take a rest.
"Alright, I'm going to find him," Henry replied.
"Good, I'm waiting for your result," Mike replied.
After ending the call, he laughed in his heart. Finally, he got some useful people in the end.
A Peak stage- Level-5 Wizard can easily crush Vincent Carey. He can't wait to see Vincent's reaction when he comes out.
But before that, he has to arrange for other people to block Vincent's way. So that cannot escape.
Meanwhile,
Henry Barlow exited the Weapon Hall and started going to the Battle Tower.
