Chapter 679 Part 2: Shadow Skull
Shadow Skull:
A few minutes later,
The level-8 wizard finished saying everything.
"Accept their order. But they have to deposit the resources first."
"When they do that then share the mission with others."
The voice said. Hearing that the level-8 wizard nodded his head before leaving the place.
Shortly after, he left.
A mist gathered from all directions and joined together to form a figure. It was an old man with a pointy hat. But his pupils were red. His nails are sharp and elongated.
His teeth are crooked as well.
"Someone wants to kill Yellow River Academy's wizard."
"He...He...He..."
"Didn't expect Shadow Skull's reputation to have reached that far," After saying that figure disappeared again.
Meanwhile,
The level-8 wizard comes to his room. After sitting down, he starts to contact the customer again.
After informing them of the condition, he waited for the resources to transfer.
A few minutes later,
The crystal ball lit up again. When the level-8 wizard accepts the information. He gets the location of a secret place where the resources are placed.
After getting that address, he dispatched a few teams to retrieve those resources.
Time flies,
The Shadow Skull's team returned with the resources at midnight. At the same time, a new mission was uploaded for everyone to see.
It's a high-level kill mission where failure was not accepted. If anyone fails to accomplish the task, he will meet with a cruel death.
So those who accept these types of kill missions are not ordinary wizards. The cruelest among the cruelest would accept such a crazy mission.
But insanely not long after the mission was posted. It was accepted by someone. The person who accepted the mission was wearing black clothes.
The power coming from his body is that of a level-7 wizard. The target is a mere level-5 wizard. Anyone here can kill a target with the snap of their fingers.
But the real problem is the protection. Usually, targets are safeguarded by high-level wizards.
In this case, it's highly possible. So some wizards didn't jump to accept the mission first. Since the mission was gone. It's not their place to worry anymore.
The level-8 wizard quickly shared the information with that person code-named Triple Killer.
As the name suggests he had completed many triple kill missions before. But this time the target was a mere level-5 wizard.
The level-8 wizard was surprised but he didn't ask any more questions.
The triple killer got the full information on the target. After waking out of the shadow stone castle. He goes to his place to get ready.
Others don't know that he has some other business in that Sand Rock Country. This mission came as a timely help.
He can finish his matters as well as the task. Walking on the street, he witnessed chaos and unjust.
Weaklings are getting trampled. Dead or not left alone. Their bodies are used for evil experiments.
As he continues to walk on the street. A nasty person in the street intentionally tries to bump into him.
But before he could do that his whole body exploded into pieces. Seeing that place instantly quieted down.
Those who were causing a ruckus also disappeared in the blink of an eye. Ignoring everyone, he soon left the spot.
A few minutes later,
He arrives at his room. Which is nothing but an underground basement. In this restless place, many wizards live in the underground basement.
For them, it's a luxurious place without any noise and disturbance. The buildings above the surface are usually destroyed because of some conflict and then reconstructed over some time.
But the underground basement is different. After entering the room, the triple killer walked in front of the mirror. He saw there were a lot of stitches done all over his face.
Which shows he had undergone some kind of experiment. When he opened his mouth. He stretched his tongue out which was extraordinarily long.
Then he opened the door and saw several jaws filled with eyeballs. He picked one of the jars and opened it to swallow an eyeball.
After swallowing the eyeball, he felt the itching on his face was gone. When his complexion returned to normal.
He then turned his attention towards the mission.
"Yellow River Academy," He mumbled under his breath.
When he read about the recent activities of the target. He furrowed his eyebrows. Because the target was not as outgoing as he thought.
If the target was an outgoing person, he could kill the person with ease. If not he has to wait for the opportunity to appear.
This probably would take a lot of time. Then he decides to complete his business in that country before thinking about the mission.
Days passed,
The Triple Killer left the restless place and started his journey toward the Sand Rock Country.
Meanwhile,
The Taboo Hall's powerhouse became silent after handing over the mission to the Shadow Skull.
On the other hand, the Bloodline Hall also came to know about the investigation details. After knowing that Ben was after Vincent Carey.
The council elders are surprised. But at the same time, they came to an understanding. Everyone blamed Ben for the dark glow debacle.
It must have been the reason which fueled Ben to seek revenge. But strangely Vincent Carey was fine. He is roaming in the academy carefree.
It's them who are finding it hard to understand. The bloodline wizard Ben was killed by someone when he was not paying attention.
The fat council elder thought about seeking help from their powerhouse. But ever since the disappearance of the elderly bloodline wizard. They don't know what to do. Most of them are afraid to contact the powerhouse.
Right now, the bloodline hall is in a miserable condition. There are not many resources. And other halls seem to keep their distance from them. Which was rather unusual.
In this situation, the council elders are hesitating to contact the powerhouse.
Suddenly, the fat elder took the responsibility of contacting the powerhouse. He found it a good opportunity to lead the whole bloodline hall.
