Chapter 584

The golden eyes glow brighter, and it seems like stress is pushing down on us by means of the display screen.

Yellow threads of divine vitality even leak into the room straight by means of the mana shielding, and I see different candidates begin to sweat and shake.

The gravity within the room will increase barely, and the Director continues to talk.

“It seems our stage 5 simulation room has been prematurely terminated… This was not inside our expectations… There have been many oddities popping up recently….”

The stress will increase, making the room rise in temperature, the air thickens, and the gravity multiplies once more. All candidates fall to their knees, holding their hearts, struggling to breathe.

I barely would have seen it if it wasn’t for his or her reactions.

After plunging deep into the aura of the inexperienced serpent for days on finish, permitting its divine vitality to tear my physique down and saturate each cell in my being repeatedly to farm its vitality; the sunshine tendrils of yellow vitality that fill the room really feel like nothing greater than somebody turning the temperature up by just a few levels.

I ship a telepathic wave into Emrie’s head, and we each fall to the bottom to play the half.

A ripple of minor amusement comes by means of the yellow vitality.

It is uncertain it’s noticeable to anybody else, however ever since I met the purple entity on the high of the assemble, my capacity to really feel others’ feelings by means of their vitality output, that will in any other case be hidden, has appeared to have woke up.

The identical monotone, virtually static voice echoes by means of the video once more.

“What you will have all witnessed inside these exams is the tip of the iceberg in relation to energy on this world. Each considered one of you has been chosen to change into part of the brand new B-Class Elites.”

There is a pause, and I really feel a ripple of anger come by means of the divine vitality that leaks by means of the partitions of this room.

“Along with this, I will likely be selecting 4 of you to coach completely with me, and change into the brand new future A-Class hunters within the 8 Nice Areas. As a result of elevated nature of high-grade dungeon breaks out within the Darkish Continent these previous months, I’ve determined to double the variety of fighters at our highest rank of Navy Energy. Different nations to our north and south will doubtless be doing the identical, so we should match them in power.”

I take into consideration his phrases rigorously, and understand he is mendacity straight to all of our faces.

There have been some dungeon breaks final month throughout one of many surges, however my doubles and armed forces members dealt with all of the extreme ones personally with ease.

The true purpose he desires to coach extra A-Class hunters is to strengthen his personal army energy as a way to deal with me, the Flame Emperor, as a rising menace within the Darkish Continent.

Whereas I feel this over, three figures stroll onto the outer edges of the video display screen, and on the similar time, the rising stress of yellow divine vitality within the room subsides.

A number of of the candidates cough and gasp for breath. I keep down on the bottom for just a few seconds earlier than standing and looking out again up on the feed, then inform Emrie to do the identical.

I watch the three figures on the display screen surrounding the Apex Areas Director activate white gentle from their arms. I am practically sure these are therapeutic abilities, most definitely the identical [Soft Heal] ability as Nat and the battle healer within the room.

Ember’s phrases in regards to the Director most definitely needing therapy for a illness come again to me, and I come to the conclusion that he is in all probability proper…

Utilizing this Divine Vitality appears to take quite a bit out of him.

Whereas he is being healed, the mysterious man speaks once more.

“I’ve contacted your entire Regional Administrators, as we will likely be having a congratulatory ceremony for all of you. Your future contracts will likely be negotiated with any area that wishes your work. It should not take quite a lot of hours to have the entire Administrators with us to start the occasion.”

My heartbeat hurries up at this assertion.

The ceremony itself is not what makes me nervous, it is the truth that it will take just a few hours for the entire Administrators to reach.

The Lich King talked about that his limiter, holding in all of his mana management, will solely final an hour. If that is so, there could also be a serious difficulty in hiding the id of Emrie Carter.

If he is uncovered, then my id of Ray Anderson will likely be way more suspicious by affiliation.

It is not out of the vary of prospects to only go away proper now again to the Crimson Metropolis and overlook investigating any additional. Nonetheless, the Director’s phrases of strengthening their forces and creating extra A-Class hunters is one thing I nonetheless need to be taught extra about.

My thoughts races for extra concepts to get us out of this new state of affairs, however the Director speaks up once more to disturb my prepare of thought.

“Whereas we wait, I would like to talk to every of you individually. I provides you with all time to relaxation, however I’ve just a few questions for every of you and wish to hear your private ideas on the outcomes of the examination this 12 months.”

The ultimate questions are about his time within the assemble, and he retells the identical story that I informed the guards once they questioned me about my crimson fruit.

On the finish of their assembly, the Lich King explains that the room was full of an immense quantity of yellow divine vitality and golden soul vitality, however his limiter blocked the consequences of an odd psychological assault that was meant to hit him.

The Director grew drained and needed to be healed by three folks as he left.

As he finally ends up his rationalization, the shadowy determine from the Phantom Area comes again. He too has the golden collar on when he walks within the room.

The 2 Vice Area water wielders stroll out, then come again in with golden collars too.

After listening to this, I am much less frightened about myself. If the Director purchased Emrie’s disguise and was unable to overpower him, I consider I will be simply high-quality.

The one difficulty I am involved about is the opposite three teammates within the room that I’ve fashioned alliances with.

I shortly message all of them by means of telepathy to ensure they will not spill the truth that I helped them on this fifth spherical.

All of them agree, and I ensure that to make sure that Nat’s expertise with the Flame Emperor is similar as Emrie’s, utilizing the additional element in regards to the standing change in her story if she’s requested about it. She agrees with none hesitation.

The three of them enter the room one after the other, and every time about half a minute earlier than they arrive again, I get the identical message pop up in my thoughts’s eye on my Rising Emperor’s Area interface.

[Attempt to Sever Link of Loyalty]

[Failed]

[Attempt to Sever Link of Loyalty]

[Failed]

[Attempt to Sever Link of Loyalty]

[Failed]

Thrice in a row this happens.

I really feel an odd stress on my coronary heart every time it occurs, and watch the vitals of my teammates waver through the course of. Every time it does, I channel dense Soul Vitality inside my very own physique aided by the facility of my yellow divine core to move by means of my coronary heart and make this exterior stress subside.

Each time I handle to battle off the stress efficiently, the three of them stroll again into the white room unhurt and with out golden collars on their necks.

Every of them recounts their tales of their time within the room, they usually all sound similar to the Lich King’s rationalization.

The one distinction is that when the yellow vitality entered their physique on the finish of the assembly, every of them handed out on the ground and was revitalized by a healer.

None of them are fairly positive what occurred within the few seconds they have been unconscious.

Rodrigo appears to be like up from his silver pill to me.

“Ray Anderson, you are the final one on the checklist. Please, stroll this fashion. Good luck.”

As I smile and stroll by, we meet eyes, as Rodrigo is the A-Class hunter that managed to get me into these exams.

His aura emanates fear and is full of uneasy nerves.

He is unable to see pure Qi, or inactive Soul Vitality; so he would not know that a few of the candidates at the moment haven’t fallen beneath the Solar God’s Curse.

As I stroll previous down the darkish hallway, the door shuts behind me, and I see a single black door on the finish of an extended corridor at the very least 30 meters lengthy.

With each step I take, the aura of the Solar God will get thicker.

There are too many feelings flowing by means of it to depend.

It is livid, impatient, devious, anxious, but in addition extraordinarily calm and assured in its personal overwhelming energy. Uncertainty fills the air as I put together to placed on my act and eventually meet Mr. Freeman nose to nose.
