Chapter 270 - 152: Great Water Magician_1
"Buzz...Buzz..."
"Buzz...Buzz..."
Streets, canteens, training halls, residences...
Whether they were students or assistants, their personal badges suddenly emitted an unusual glow of red light.
"Eh? What’s happening?"
The novice students who had never seen such a situation paused and looked around, clueless and confused.
However, quite a number of senior students were also baffled and wore their confusion on their faces.
"Alert! Alert!"
"Over thirty mentors have sent out a joint distress signal! A major disaster is suspected!"
"Those whose personal badges have turned red, whether staff, students, or assistants, should proceed to the emergency shelters! Unless it is necessary, no one should move about at will!"
"Those mentors whose personal badges have turned blue, please rush to the scene of the accident immediately for assistance! Immediate support! Immediate support! ..."
The hidden communication devices in the corners were suddenly buzzing with activity.
The students broke out in goosebumps when they heard the content of the alert. Their eyes were wide in surprise.
"Holy crap! Thirty mentors are calling for help! Right here in the academy??"
"Am I dreaming? Chomp, bite me...Ouch! It’s real! It hurts!"
...
The students began to scatter, most of them panicked.
When the senior students and assistants began to maintain order, the chaos started to subside, and the evacuation into the shelters became orderly.
However, such commotion... was not only happening in the North Campus!
The Southern Campus, a gathering place of elites in Canghai Pavilion, was also echoing with the grating sound of the alarm.
"Brother Ziping, what on earth is happening?"
"I don’t know... Let’s get to safety first."
"Since joining Canghai Pavilion, this is the first time I’ve seen such an exaggerated disaster warning. A problem that thirty mentors can’t solve... Is it an enemy invasion? Or the spread of a plague? What exactly is it..."
...
The Southern Campus had fewer people, but even the weakest among them were in the 2nd stage.
Their actions were extremely efficient. By the time the North Campus was in chaos, they had already dispersed to various shelters, doing their best to be on guard.
"Whoosh!"
At a depth of nearly 500 meters in a large artificial pond...
An emaciated old man sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the pond had a blinding red light emanating from his chest.
He opened his eyes, and confusion flashed in his sapphire-like pupils for a moment.
Within the next second, the confusion vanished. He touched the badge on his chest, his eyes growing steadily cold.
"Gulp!"
Two massive figures appeared behind him with shadows as looming as mountains.
With a flash of light, one of them was forced back.
The emaciated old man grabbed the remaining one. With a surge of water, he was flying above the ground in the blink of an eye, all the way from the bottom of the 500-meter-deep pond.
"Hoot!!"
It was a bird! A large bird!
Its body was completely dark blue, as if it was painted with varnish.
Even amidst the falling night, it glowed with a luster that was soft yet eye-catching.
Aside from its large wings, its main body was quite extraordinary.
It resembled a blue tiger with powerful muscles indicating its bravery and agility.
It didn’t have a big mouth, but a curved beak instead.
When matched with its fierce and brutal eyes, its terrifying nature only intensified.
—A Water Tiger Sculpture!
This was a rare species of the Demon Fond Spirits. It could fly in the sky and dive into the sea, engage in physical combat, and cast spells.
Moreover, it wasn’t a Jade Infant, but had ascended to an unimaginable tier - the Life Wheel- decades ago!
"Hoot!!!"
The Water Tiger Sculpture sped off, slicing through the night sky like a blue meteor.
Some mentors hurrying below on their beasts or avian creatures, heading towards the rescue site, looked up and had their spirits lifted when they saw the blue figure soaring overhead.
"What on earth...has caused even the Dean to get involved?!"
"Hiss... The Dean has been in isolation for ten years and hasn’t made an appearance in a long time. What happened today that’s forced him out?"
"Let’s go! Let’s go have a look!"
"No matter what the danger is, with the Dean there, everything will be safe!"
...
At Canghai Pavilion, North Campus, in the Northwest region...
Aside from the King Kong Berserker Bear that was instantly killed and Hong Li who suffered backlash due to the broken contract...
Zhu Zixin had also escaped. Although a great majority of her small head silver ants were annihilated, the big head gold ants managed to burrow underground and escape unscathed.
The rest, under Ji Yan’s command, were already spread out in a wide circle around the research facility, not acting rashly.
"The Rotten Scholar... a D-rank authority?"
"His mental state seems unstable. Is this a negative effect of forcibly breaking through, or does this authority inherently have its own flaws?"
Jiang Yongnian had never heard of this authority before, so he had to interrogate Ye Hanjun.
"This authority inherently has its flaws."
Ye Hanjun responded in a low voice:
"His active ability is ’Rotten Transformation’ that I just mentioned, and it limits the Contracted Fond Spirits to one."
"But he has two passive abilities. One called ’Death Sensing’ can keenly detect dead creatures around."
"The other called ’Rotten Body’, when activated, makes his body mostly rotten."
"And his brain is affected as well, naturally causing mental issues."
"Of course, ’Rotten Body’ is formidable. The bearer will gain robust vitality and capacity for self-healing. Whatever the palm continuously touches, be it metal or ore, will decay and rot, making it highly lethal..."
