Chapter 257 - 257: 251: Mysterious Mountain
June 28, Wednesday, the weather is bright and clear.
“Mountain Blacksmoke in Magnolia District should be somewhere nearby.”
Ignoring the excited gazes from surrounding trainers, David Jones walked alone on the suburban road, looking at the map on his phone’s navigation with a somewhat helpless expression.
Ever since he won the championship in Rosewood College’s ranking competition four days ago, he had been receiving attention and chitchat from many trainers every time he went out.
At first, David was in a good mood, as it was a novelty for him, but as more and more ill-intentioned people came along, he began to get more and more annoyed.
“Hello, are you David Jones?”
At that moment, a pretty young girl with an excited expression suddenly approached and asked.
“Yes.” Seeing the admiration in the girl’s eyes and a group of girls cheering for her nearby, David smiled.
“I’m your fan, can you sign an autograph for me?” The young girl pulled out a pen and paper.
“No problem.”
David breathed a sigh of relief, as he wouldn’t refuse such a small matter.
Wow, it’s really David Jones! Can you sign an autograph for me too?”
“Me too!”
“I want one too!”
Seeing the girl get the signature successfully, the girls who had been waiting in place immediately came up excitedly and spoke up.
It must be said that now, David has a very high degree of recognition in Rosewood City, even wearing a mask on the streets will be recognized instantly.
After all, it hasn’t been long since the competition ended, David’s handsome appearance coupled with his overwhelming strength made him rise quickly in the minds of the new generation of trainers. To exaggerate a little, he has almost become the ideal and goal pursued by most ordinary family trainers.
David took the pen and paper handed to him by the girls and signed autographs while glancing at the mountain peak in the distance, which was faintly covered with hazy black smoke.
That was his destination: Mountain Blacksmoke.
It is said that Mountain Blacksmoke is covered with poisonous gas and devoid of life; even the trees within a hundred miles of the mountain range are poisonous plants.
Even if a trainer accidentally inhales a mouthful of poisonous gas, they could die immediately. Fortunately, these toxic gases do not leak out and are always shrouded inside the mountain, as if they are guarding some treasure.
In addition, there are occasional roars of giant dragons coming from within Mountain Blacksmoke, as if a giant dragon lives there, attracting the attention of many trainers.
However, because the Trainer Guild in Rosewood City declared Mountain Blacksmoke a forbidden area long ago and forbids trainers from entering, very few trainers dare to defy the ban and go directly to Mountain Blacksmoke.
“Why would Elder Sister Audrey send me to such a forbidden place?” David sighed inwardly.
After saying goodbye to his fans, he summoned Rainbow and rode atop, arriving at the foot of Mountain Blacksmoke at a lightning-fast speed.
[No Entry, Violators Will Die]
Looking at the sign on the entrance, David unconsciously looked at the dangerous mountain peak not far away, and suddenly a strong sense of danger surged in his heart.
“It is worthy of being the forbidden area set by the Trainer Guild. Whenever I think of entering it, a lingering sense of impending death emerges. It’s absolutely not a place I can enter!” David pondered to himself.
Yi! ( ~ (There’s the presence of dragons here!)
Rainbow gazed at Mountain Blacksmoke with serious eyes, while Daphne, on the other hand, lay lazily on the trainer’s shoulder like a snowball, not moving at all. 6
“Dragons? It seems that the rumors are true, but the Dragon-Wielding power in my body hasn’t fluctuated!” David frowned slightly.
He dared not act rashly and chose to wait quietly.
Twenty minutes later, a dazzling red light came streaking across the azure sky.
Soon, the red light slowed down, revealing a luxurious hover car, which then landed slowly on the open ground in front of David.
The car’s back door opened, and David first saw a pair of sexy black stockings and black high heels, followed by a black straight skirt, and finally a stunning blonde hair.
“Greetings, Professor Harvey.” David bowed politely.
Professor Harvey seemed in good spirits, smiling and waving his hand.
“No need to be so formal, you can call me Elder Sister Audrey in private.”
Upon hearing that, David smiled, “Alright, Elder Sister Audrey.”
“Elder Sister Audrey, is this Teacher’s ninth disciple? He is indeed a handsome young man! Nice to meet you, my name is Gabrielle Pansy, and I am your seventh elder sister.”
At this time, a woman who looked to be in her late twenties, with cascading black hair, a form-fitting shirt that made her chest unusually full, a slender and tall figure, and a capable temperament, stepped down from the driver’s seat of the red car.
Gabrielle Pansy, 29 years old, a Level I teacher at Rosewood University’s Pharmacy Department, a genius trainer of Rosalind’s generation. She broke through to King level at the age of 28 and is also a Master pharmacist.
Not only is she a well-known genius teacher in Rosewood University, but she is also a rival and friend of Rosalind.
Thinking of this, David said, “Hello, Elder Sister Qu.”
As for this, Gabrielle Pansy also responded with a smile, as her feud with
Rosalind did not extend to this rising star of a disciple.
Moreover, she wasn’t foolish enough to risk offending a future promising genius Trainer.
“Lately, Teacher has been busy with closed-door cultivation and doesn’t have time to teach you Alchemy. So, I will be in charge of teaching you Alchemy before the semester begins.”
Upon hearing that, David’s heart leaped with joy.
Although there is a gap between Grandmaster alchemists, being able to receive hands-on guidance from a Grandmaster-level figure is already considered a huge blessing for him!
If he could observe Elder Sister Audrey’s alchemy process, perhaps he could gather a massive amount of elixir soul and nurture even stronger Spirit Eyes.
“Exchange contact information, young brother Chen. If you have any questions you don’t understand, you can ask me. Although my research in Alchemy is not as good as Elder Sister Audrey, I can still enlighten you on your doubts.” Gabrielle Pansy said with an indifferent smile.
“Thank you both, elder sisters!” David expressed his gratitude.
“Alright, let’s talk about other things inside. The third senior brother is still waiting for us in Mountain Blacksmoke,” Elder Sister Audrey urged.
“Third senior brother?” A trace of confusion appeared in David’s eyes.
Didn’t Rosalind say that at Rosewood University, he only had two elder sisters?
So how did a third senior brother suddenly appear?
“Little junior brother, the third senior brother has a simple personality, and
you should be more polite to him later; otherwise, you might suffer a bit.” Gabrielle Pansy warned.
When she first met her so-called third senior brother, she was startled and instinctively called him a monster, only to be immediately detested by the third senior brother..
