“I don’t know how it is like in the Blackboard Region recently and what has changed there. I haven’t been back there for a long time. After graduating for so many years, I really don’t know if a lot of things are still there,” Garen sighed.
“Hehe, people always miss their hometown when they are outside. It’s also human nature,” Luke laughed. “Speaking of which, Black Star Diofie who came from your Blackboard Region is really awesome. He withstood the alliance between two major regions by himself and has become a pillar of the region at such a young age. My sister especially adores him and keeps viewing him as her idol, constantly telling me about him…”
Garen shook his head. Black Star Diofie actually became the pillar of the Blackboard Region. He wondered what kind of changes had taken place in these years. His fame had even spread to Central. Presumably, the recent reputation of Blackboard Region was very great.
“That year when the Divine Wind General rebelled, the vitality of the Blackboard Region greatly suffered. The Black Flood Party was divided into two, one part in the Blackboard Region and another in the Polar Region. If it wasn’t for the emergence of Diofie, I reckon that the Blackboard Region would have ceased to exist. Our battle-class professor regarded this reversal battle as a classic,” Luke praised. When speaking to a certain kind of people, one had to find a certain common topic to talk about. Since Garen was from the Blackboard Region, he would naturally pick this area of topic.
“I don’t know how my professor is doing now,” Garen sighed.
“Once you return, you’ll know.” Luke raised his hand and pointed forward. “See that? That right there is the long-distance teleportation portal. The one on the leftmost leads directly to the Blackboard Region.”
Following the direction of his finger, Garen looked up and saw that there was a row of tall, circular arched doors at the far end. The middle of the door was flowing with a thin, membrane-like liquid that flashed with a blue light.
The doors were more than ten meters high. They were extremely large. There were more than ten doors in a row, and each of them corresponded with the names of the different regions. Among them, the rightmost one was the Blackboard Region.
There was also the Polar Region and other names that had not been heard of. Obviously, only when the scale reached a certain level would it be qualified to arrange a teleportation portal here.
Chhh!
The car drifted sideways and stopped.
“I can only send you ’til here,” Luke said with a smile. “There are soldiers in front that do not allow cars to pass.”
“It’s okay. Thanks a lot for sending me all the way here,” Garen politely expressed his gratitude and looked up at the large door to the Blackboard Region. The doorway was still sparsely lined up, with about a dozen people waiting for an inspection before teleporting.
“It’s all right! Remember to get your teleportation card. Without such a thing, you’re not allowed to be teleported,” Luke kindly reminded.
Garen smiled.
“Don’t worry. When you have time, come to the Blackboard Region. You must remember to contact me then.”
“Hehe. Have a safe journey,” Luke waved, drove his car and left after turning around the bend.
Garen looked at the electronic inspection device on the white road ahead, smiled and walked over.
Doo. Doo.
After a subtle sound of inspection, Garen, who did not have any proof of identity, naturally passed it. His identity wrist-watch was already destroyed by the Blackboard Region back then. Nonetheless, what was the point of a proof for him now?
He went along with the queue, slowly waiting for the inspection. However, with the use of Inherited Level Willpower, he easily mingled in. Garen followed the crowd flow and directly walked into the blue liquid of the huge teleportation portal, disappearing instantly.
Just as he entered the teleportation portal, the entire portal shook violently and the surface surged with large ripples.
“A high-energy creature had mingled in just now! Check the equipment quickly! Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!”
“Notify the Blackboard Region and immediately send out a warning!!”
A few senior officers in a group of soldiers stationed over there immediately panicked and issued a series of instructions loudly.
“What’s with the panic? People were just passing by!” A white-haired old man with a goatee appeared out of nowhere in front of the teleportation portal and was hovering in the air.
“In… Inherited Level professor!”
Most of the soldiers were ordinary people. They rarely had the chance to see an Inherited Level powerhouse in the castle. At this time, there was a sudden exclamation.
The old man breathed out a sigh of relieved without anyone noticing.
“Fortunately, that lad, Luke, had safely sent this old monster away…”
Recalling the message his grandson had sent him, he said that he had encountered a horrific guy whose limit could not even be detected by the aura detector. He immediately rushed over and did not expect that from far, he could feel that this guy was definitely extraordinarily powerful. Even the Dean of the Academy was incomparable to that vast ocean-like aura. How could a powerhouse of this level appear on the Mother Planet!?
The resources of the Mother Planet had long been scarce. There was nothing else valuable other than some ruins. Non-falling Level was almost the strongest ranks. Most of the more powerful powerhouses had left the Mother Planet to more prosperous places. It was impossible for them to come to such a barren place to hamper their own development.
“Anyway, as long as he has left, it’s fine. It’s fine…” The old man was relieved.
“Someone! Immediately close the Blackboard Region teleportation portal!” He ordered loudly right away. “There is something wrong with the teleportation portal and it needs to be repaired immediately.”
He himself, on the other hand, flew directly to the main castle. He must immediately report this incident. His instinct told him that there probably was going to be a major change of events in the direction of the Blackboard Region.
**********************
Osiris City by the border of Blackboard Region.
Osiris was only a small city, but it was garrisoned with one of the Five Great Border Corps, the Lion King Corps. It was led by a military chief, who was a Level-Five pilot stationed here named Lion King Ryan.
This place was also the main checkpoint to examine the incoming and outgoing of people teleporting.
Soldiers and Mechs in black uniforms guarded the huge, long-distance teleportation portal.
One by one, the teleporters came out from the inside, each pulling their own luggage. They quickly began to go far away to make a call.
“Please show your wrist-watch and then leave quickly along the safe route. This is a high-radiation zone.”
“Please do not stay near the teleportation portal so as to avoid high radiation from damaging the body.”
The sweet broadcaster kept on giving out instructions. There were cars parked outside the railings in the distance. They were all vehicles that had come to pick up their loved ones and friends.
The noisy crowd lined up. After the entire body was scanned by the Mech soldiers’ electronic scan, they quickly left one after another.
Hum…
Suddenly, the entire teleportation quavered, triggering a large number of ripples. It then abruptly closed off with a screech.
Garen had just stepped out of the teleportation portal when he felt the teleportation portal closing behind him.
He smiled lightly, not at all surprised. Luke’s appearance and the observers in the dark on the way made him aware that Luke was not so kind as to help him. Although this situation was obvious, it was also expected.
Hiss…
Taking a deep breath and closing his eyes, he felt the familiar scent in the air.
“Finally… I’m back here again…”
Returning once again, he looked at the surrounding Mech soldiers that were just Level One and Two. Faraway, an estimated Level-Four aura that was rushing over here was probably the most powerful person in the vicinity. After just coming back from the busiest metropolis filled with powerhouses, he was reflecting on the barren state here where a Level Four could be considered a powerhouse.
The huge gap made Garen shook his head slightly.
In the Three Major Metropolis, Level Four Energy Machinists could only be considered as technicians and they were the largest group of workers. Meanwhile, over here, they could be high-level generals who guarded this kind of important teleportation portals.
If such pilots were put on Planet Naga, they could only be the underlings of the ordinary Level One and Two sect disciples.
Mixing in the crowd, he watched a grand spaceship fly quickly into the sky. Black standard Mechs with a black disc on their back jumped down from it.
Professor… Seventh Divine Wind General… and also a biochemist Bamente, Ice Dragon, Fila as well as the Sixth Divine Wind General who had saved him before. One by one, their faces flashed through Garen’s mind non-stop. Finally, it was fixed on a pretty and striking girl’s face.
“Celine…”
Garen let out a breath lightly.
It was time, to end everything.
Fila, who had caused him to almost die back then, Seventh Divine Wind General, and Bamente. These three were his primary targets. As for the Professor, who had once helped him even though he gave up in the end…
“Turing, what do you think I should do?” Garen’s lips were motionless, but he used Willpower to transmit his voice directly.
Turing had always been hidden in the air around him. As Garen advanced to the Non-falling Level, they had also advanced to the degree of Non-falling Level. It was just that they had a layer of cutting-edge invisible clothing on them.
“Mother Planet is merely a poor and underdeveloped area used by Energy Machinists as their experimental zone. With Master’s power, there is absolutely no need for any fear. Nobody will try to offend Master because of the Mother Planet,” Turing answered faithfully.
“I used to live here for many years. There are many people here whom I have once known…” Garen said plainly.
“Master’s will is the fate of Mother Planet,” Turing’s voice slowly came about.
The wind was blowing, and the sun gave off a warm feeling as it shone on the body.
There was silence for a long time.
Garen slowly laughed.
“In that case…”
He gradually closed his eyes, and an invisible wave of power slowly spread out.
The sky was gradually filled with dark clouds and they were getting denser. In just a few moments, the entire city was covered with darkness.
“Is it going to rain again? Didn’t it just rain?”
“Didn’t the weather forecast said that it will be sunny today and tomorrow?”
“The weather forecast has never been reliable!”
The teleporters who passed by Garen complained.
“Blackboard Region, Polar Region… Your destinies are about to be the same as this dark sky. Will there be anyone who can break open this dark cloud… who can break through this fate…”
Garen murmured in a whisper. His figure suddenly blurred, instantly disappearing among the crowd.
Numerous dark clouds covered both the Blackboard Region and the Polar Region at almost the same time. Even the vast Radiation Zone in between was covered. The abundant dark clouds obscured the sunlight in the sky.
The temperature dropped rapidly, and reports of the sudden formation of cold air were everywhere.
The atmosphere that was supposed to be summer seemed to have returned to winter all of a sudden.
The Capital, Blackboard City…
“Snow! It’s snow! It’s snowing! Mommy, mommy, it’s snowing!” A child on the street was so surprised that she caught a snowflake in a glove and hopped and ran in the direction of home.
Plentiful snowflakes descended from the sky.
At the highest point of Blackboard City, a slender, black, pointed Mech was half-squatting on the tip of the minaret on a Blackboard battleship.
Black Star Diofie in the cabin was no longer the handsome young man back in those years. His hair was white on both sides and there were obvious wrinkles on his face, showing signs of senility that were not supposed to be there.
Chhh…
The roof of the cabin opened. He sat in the Mech and looked up at the falling snowflake in the sky.
“Snow?”
He reached out his hand in a daze, caught a little snowflake, and watched it melt gradually in his palm.
As soon as the snow melted, he felt an intense anxiety in the depth of his Willpower.
“Dean.”
Suddenly, a light curtain screen appeared in front of him automatically. A young woman on it spoke solemnly.
“It’s weird. The Intelligence Bureau sent news that the Polar Region and we have a sudden unusual gathering of clouds in the sky above. All areas, including the Radiation Zone, have begun to snow as such.”
“Notify the professors in the Inner Courtyard to organize a group of experts to conduct a research. We must make clear the source of this snow,” Diofie frowned.
“Understood.”
“I don’t know why,” Diofie whispered. “I have a bad feeling.”
