Thick, black smoke rose from the lakeside of Baine University .
By the lakeside, a figure with triangular see-through shields was fighting with a group of masked men in black armor .
Streams of dark powers crashed and exploded, letting out a thunderous crash .
Scorching green light and black smoke spread out continuously as uneven craters were gouged out upon the verdant grassland .
*Bam!!*
A figure fell into the lake and kicked up a massive splash . Before he could even get up, a cold, silver light shot out like a beam into the lake and struck the person square in the chest .
By the shore, Bluetail gently pulled his right arm back as he twirled the long blue hair on the side of his face with his pinkie .
He had a very muscular body, which was clad in blue female tights . His lips were coated with blood-red lipstick while red eyeshadow lined his eyes .
He seemed strong, bizarre, and charming .
That would be the first impression most would have upon seeing him .
“Did you see that? This is the result of being stubborn . ” Bluetail gently forked his hand over his waist, as he skipped over toward Baine University .
Behind him were three people, all massive men and women clad in white armor .
They were professionals sent from the Sect of Thousand Graces, Whalerudder, and Blacklion .
The Whalerudder was the powerful dark-skinned lady with white hair, whom Lin Sheng had met before, Fea .
The other two were male, one looked like a rich kid in sunglasses while another wore a short white t-shirt and jeans, as his muscles twitched about like a standard bodybuilding trainer .
“Master Bluetail, we are going to hit Baine University head-on? Don’t we have any plans?” the rich kid-looking Madram could not help but ask .
“Plan?” Bluetail broke into a mischievous smile . “Are you ordering me about?” He turned around and slowly stared at Madram, a glint of bloodlust and madness appearing in his eyes .
“I wouldn’t dare, but this is a joint operation by the Sevenlocks Tower and our Sect of Thousand Graces . Regardless, we do not wish for any unforeseen incidents in the operation, so wouldn’t it be better if things could go a lot smoother?”
“Smoother? That means you think my plan is no good as yours?” Bluetail ran his finger gently across his lips, painting it red .
Madram’s expression turned dark as his body subconsciously tensed up .
Bluetail, while an operator of Sevenlocks Tower, was a genuine maniac . If not for his attitude problem, he would not have been sent out as the vanguard .
One needed to know that the casualty ratio for the vanguards is always the highest .
“You know I did not mean that . But Our Sect of Thousand Graces is just a mere small force, and cannot afford to send men anywhere like you . So if we do not agree to the plan of action, the sect’s team will not join in the main force,” Madram insisted .
“Heheh… pitiful… pitiful caution…” Bluetail pulled his hand away and wore an exaggerated helpless look .
“So that means you’re threatening me?” His expression suddenly turned chilly .
Madram gasped .
“No, I did not mean…”
Suddenly, a massive blue tail flashed before his eyes as the ten-odd-meter-long spiked tail crashed against him like a speeding freight train .
Madram let out a howl as a three-meter-tall green ram appeared and fused with him . His body suddenly grew as ram horns appeared on his head, as he lowered it to block the attack .
*Bammm!!!*
An explosion rang out all across Madram like shattered glass as he flew up into the air and spurted blood as he went, before crashing into the lake .
A grunt later, a white water pillar blasted out from the surface of the lake as mud roiled at the bottom of it .
The blue monstrous tail returned to Bluetail like a bolt of lightning as he smiled while placing his finger in his lips .
“Anyone has any other opinions?”
The remaining two members of the sect kept silent and dared not speak .
Madram was their leader and the strongest among the three of them . For someone with an Oppressor-class ability to be so easily pummeled into half-death into the lake, Whaleruder and Blacklion dared not say anything at all .
“Seems like both of you have nothing to add . Let’s go . ” Bluetail then took big strides towards the university gate .
Every other distance he walked, a ten-meter-long half-translucent monster tail would appear as it swept around, sending every student or teacher flying and tethering on the brink of death .
Soon, however, an old man rippling in cold blue light with a staff in hand slowly walked out of the gate .
“Bluetail, it is you,” the old man said as a white, mysterious matrix akin to a mistletoe spun within his eye .
“Thirty years, and you are getting older, and older, Cainphas . ” Bluetail stopped as he looked at the old man about twenty meters away .
The old man smiled . “You couldn’t defeat me thirty years ago . It will be the same today . ”
He lifted his staff and gently tapped it against the ground .
*Ting!*
The moment the other end of the staff made contact against the ground, a gentle, hidden ripple rang out .
The ripple quickly expanded and enveloped every heretic within a fifty-meter radius, Bluetail included .
“Skyfrost!”
The mistletoe matrix within the old man’s eyes lit up in blue light .
*Bam bam bam!!*
At that instant, barely a fraction of a second later, a sea of white frost emanated from his feet and engulfed the entire rippled area .
White frost quickly crept up the shoes, back of the leg and thighs of the heretics before rapidly freezing, expanding, and exploding .
*Bam bam bam!!*
Within a second, countless of blood-colored snow flowers bloomed at the same time within the fifty-meter radius .
Inside the gloomy city before dawn .
Amid the skyscrapers, a muscular frame was moving like an agile cat as the figure rapidly jumped his way from building to building .
Soon, a sea of buildings was left behind the figure .
He did not stop as he traversed districts after districts as neither malls, shopping complexes, residential areas or parks could slow him down .
Not long after, the figure suddenly paused as he stood silently on top of a massive billboard above a shopping mall .
The figure was clad in dark grey long shirt and pants, with a dark green crystal mask on his face; revealing only a clean-shaven chin . It was Lin Sheng .
He quietly stood at the corner where the light did not shine and looked at the Soul Fortress’ entrance from afar .
It was nothing but quiet, and only a couple of drunkards were screaming about as they sat on the steps .
Many shops have yet to open their shutters, as it was not yet operations hours . Or perhaps it already was, but no one dared to open their doors .
“It seems like this place is not the target . Should be safe . ”
Lin Sheng took a step back and launched himself into the air as strands upon strands of dark power threads formed around him . The threads then formed into stable platforms to allow him to quickly leap forward .
Shortly after, he left the Soul Fortress entrance far behind him .
A few minutes later, he reappeared near a fountain plaza as a four-meter-tall dark figure was fighting with two green wolves .
