Charles possessed the dark attribute mystical beast, Mousie, and was quite sensitive to dark energy, while ordinary Beast Masters would be completely unaware of the changes around them.
With no ti to think further, Charles instantly summoned Mousie, Max, and Mia.
But in the next mont.
A massive sense of crisis swept over Charles's entire being, his body was sending constant warnings that he must not act recklessly, or death would be his only fate!
"Hello, Charles. This is our first eting, isn't it?" An ancient voice echoed around him, sounding incredibly ethereal.
Charles couldn't pinpoint the source of the voice, his mind raced as he desperately tried to devise a way to resolve the impending crisis!
The ability to use dark energy and the overwhelming sense of danger it brought,
within Genosha Calivia, could only co from an eighth-level Beast Master from Constellation!
"Do they think I ruined their plans, so they chose to act against despite the risk of being discovered?" Charles speculated in his mind, maintaining an outward calm.
The ancient voice continued, "I didn't expect to underestimate you, you were able to pinpoint my exact location in such a short ti. Charles, you are a true genius!"
Charles stayed composed, wanting to buy so ti. After all, he was near Cyber Academy, and the director, Jamie, might finish what he was doing and return to the academy at any mont.
If he could just hold on until then, there might be a glimr of hope!
How could a third-level Beast Master escape from the hands of an eighth-level Beast Master?
As Charles pondered a way to break the stalemate, he replied, "The reason I was able to pinpoint your location isn't because I'm exceptionally clever, it's simply that you left so openings."
"Oh? What openings? You don't think I'm asking you, do you? Stop trying to buy ti." said the eighth-level Beast Master from Constellation, revealing that he had guessed Charles's thoughts.
Charles took a deep breath, the gap between a third-level Beast Master and an eighth-level Beast Master was akin to one being in the sky and the other underground.
Faced with such a situation, Charles did not want to give up!
During their conversation, Charles had wanted to try using darkness cloak to see if he could escape into Cyber Academy,
but unfortunately, it seed that the surrounding darkness was entirely under the control of the eighth-level Beast Master before him, showing no response whatsoever!
"Stop thinking about it, you can't escape, and I won't kill you." the voice echoed again.
This took Charles by surprise, he couldn't understand the situation. If what the other party said was true, then what was the reason?
He had clearly caused Constellation significant losses, yet this eighth-level Beast Master from Constellation genuinely seed not to intend to kill him. Why was that?
Charles remained vigilant, continuously contemplating various possibilities. A simple sentence carried a wealth of information.
"Do you have sothing to tell ? A warning, or perhaps a threat?" Charles asked.
A figure slowly erged from the darkness, it was the eighth-level Beast Master, wearing a uniquely styled robe that concealed the material, with not a hint of skin exposed.
"Let introduce myself. I am an elder of the Horned Wood Dragon organization from the Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon. You can call Elder Shadow." said the figure in black.
Charles curiously inquired, "Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon? Horned Wood Dragon? What is that?"
"There are a total of twenty-eight lodges in Constellation, and those active in the Abyssal Depths are just a small part. Charles, this world is far larger than you can imagine." the figure explained, continuing,
"Because of you, the plans for Genosha Calivia were canceled at the last minute. Charles, I ca to find you to say this: strengthen yourself as soon as possible."
Twenty-eight lodges in Constellation?
The eighth-level Beast Master before him was just an elder of one of the lodges?
Charles received astonishing news, the power of this Constellation organization was simply unimaginable!
However, what intrigued Charles more was the aning behind the last sentence. He asked, "You want to get stronger quickly? Why?"
"Because this world is on the brink of destruction! Charles, only by becoming stronger will you be qualified to know the truth of the world and join us!" As he said this, the figure in black raised his hands with fervor, palms open and facing outward, covering his eyes!
Charles remained on high alert, as he saw this scene and was about to make a move,
the palms of the black-robed man suddenly split open, revealing a pair of indescribable eyes that fixed intently on Charles!
Before Charles, an illusion appeared again—the chaotic, twisted, indescribable unknown creature he had seen in the secret chamber of the Colton cabin erged once more!
"Indeed! Everything is the arrangent of fate. Charles, you cannot resist destiny. I await your joining us!" The figure in black seed to hear sothing, growing even more fervent.
The eyes in his palms began to emit thick black mist,
and soon, the black-robed man vanished, leaving Charles alone in place.
"Damn it! What do they an the world is about to be destroyed? What fate are they talking about? Do they ever speak plainly?" Charles exhaled, staring at the spot where the figure had disappeared, lost in thought.
He contemplated the purpose of the black-robed man's appearance. Charles felt that the figure had co to confirm sothing: his reaction to the eyes in the black-robed man's palms!
Telling him about the world's destruction, the arrangent of fate, and the general power of Constellation was likely just to heighten his sense of crisis.
As for joining Constellation?
Charles didn't even think twice, that was absolutely impossible!
A group that used innocent children to concoct forbidden miracle drugs deserved to be eradicated completely!
Moreover, should he inform Director Jamie about this? Charles felt uncertain.
He simply couldn't explain why, despite causing significant losses to Constellation within Genosha Calivia, they had found an opportunity yet chose to let him go.
"Sigh, I guess I'll just wait a bit longer, the director hasn't returned yet." Charles thought to himself.
He returned to his dormitory, quickly washed up, and then lay down on his bed.
So much had happened today, and the impact was overwhelming!
He couldn't figure out the purpose of Constellation. What was the reason behind concocting forbidden miracle drugs? And what about that eighth-level Beast Master who called himself an elder? What was the deal with the eyes in his palms?
Could it be the familiar that Teacher Colton ntioned?
What about that chaotic, twisted, indescribable unknown creature that appeared in his illusion?
This was the second ti Charles had seen it. Was it a hallucination, or did it truly exist?
Too many questions and confusions flooded Charles's mind, and he finally fell into a deep sleep around three in the morning.
The next morning, Charles, as usual, went to the cafeteria to eat with Max, Mousie, and Mia.
During this ti, Mia had been growing larger every day, looking like she was nearing adulthood. He wondered if she would awaken any new skills once she reached adulthood.
With this thought in mind, Charles walked along the path to the classroom.
The crowd that usually gathered around him had all stopped in their tracks, standing at a distance, watching Charles's figure and whispering among themselves:
"Did you hear about what happened yesterday? There seed to be a battle in the city!"
"Of course! I was scared awake in the middle of the night, thinking an enemy country had invaded."
"This morning, the Genosha officials announced that they were targeting criminal gangs, and it seems to involve human trafficking."
"I saw that too! It was Charles who uncovered the truth and saved twenty-six innocent children. Truly my idol!"
"Now people online are calling Charles a hero! I heard major dia outlets want to interview him!"
Charles listened to the chatter around him, feeling no joy. The information was only part of the truth, while the rest was completely covered up.
It was probably because Genosha didn't want the general public to know about the existence of Constellation, to avoid causing unrest and panic.
However, this ant that apart from the twenty-six surviving children, the rest who died in the abandoned factory would remain invisible to the public.
No one would know, except for their parents, and perhaps even those parents might never find out that their missing children had already died.
Charles could imagine that if it were truly the case, the only thing left for the families of the missing children would be a false hope, making them wait day after day.
Taking a deep breath, Charles veered off the path, he didn't want to go to class anymore. He wanted to visit Director Jamie's office to ask a few questions.
Just as he reached the door, he saw Teacher Hale walking out of the director's office.
Hale looked a bit surprised, it was almost class ti, and he wondered what had brought Charles to the director's office.
Recalling the director's instructions and the events of yesterday, Hale likely had a guess about what was going on.
He opened his mouth, intending to say sothing, but then swallowed those words. He simply patted Charles on the shoulder and said, "The director is inside, you can go right in."
Charles nodded and walked into the director's office.
Jamie was looking down at the docunts in his hands, seemingly unaware of Charles, until Charles spoke up, "Director, have the families of those children been inford about their deaths?"
Jamie placed the docunts on the table and replied, "That's not a decision I can make. Most people's opinion is to maintain social stability and choose not to disclose this information."
Upon hearing this, Charles fell silent. He desperately wanted the families who had lost children to know the truth,
but he also understood that this was sothing he could not change!
Who would believe the words of a third-level Beast Master anyway?
