Chapter 155 - Establishing a Miraculous Achievement and Obtaining a Reward
Chapter 155: Establishing a Miraculous Achievement and Obtaining a Reward
An entire night had passed. The teachers and students from War School had searched for the whole night but to no avail. They could only gather in the school’s large conference room for a meeting.
As the teacher who led the team the night before, Urgart’s face was extremely gloomy as he looked at the teachers and students.
He then said in a deep voice, “The bear tribesmen that sneaked into the school last night wasn’t very strong at all. It’s just that their speed was exceptionally fast. With such strength, it’s impossible for them to forcefully barge into the school. They must have been hiding in the school for a long time! Immediately count the number of people and see who isn’t present!”
“Yes!”
When the other teachers heard Urgart’s order, they began to list the number of people. Very quickly, they found out who was absent from each class.
“Everyone is present. Only Vincent has disappeared since last night!” said a Beast Race teacher.
“What? Vincent!” Urgart muttered in disbelief. In his heart, he was unwilling to believe that the youth with amazing talent would be a traitor of the Beast Race.
“Teacher, the one who saved Qiu Misri yesterday was a bear, and Vincent is a tiger. He could not be a traitor!” said Tina, who was in the crowd. She took the lead to speak up for Vincent.
Immediately after, Duanmu also stood up and said, “That’s right. Vincent is the pride of our War School. How could he betray us?”
After looking at the students who spoke up for Vincent, Urgart shook his head, helplessly. He said, “I don’t want to doubt my own student either, but there has been no news of him since last night. Isn’t this suspicious? Did any of you act together with him last night?”
Everyone looked at each other. No one had seen Vincent last night.
Could it be that Vincent was really a traitor?
Just when everyone was feeling a little uncertain, the door of the meeting room suddenly opened. The sound of steady footsteps could be heard.
“I’m back!”
The tiger-headed Vincent walked into the conference room with a calm expression. He looked at all the teachers and students in the school.
“Vincent, where did you go when the school was attacked yesterday?” asked Urgart.
When he saw Vincent returned, he could not help but feel relieved. However, he still asked him with a serious expression.
“Last night, it was an invasion of a level 19 creature. I didn’t dare to get too close, so I naturally hid!” said Vincent frankly.
After hearing this, those who knew Vincent well felt incredulous.
Vincent usually looked like he was not afraid of anything, how could he be scared during such a critical moment? And he even admitted it in front of so many people.
Doubts rose in Urgart’s heart again. He then asked, “Then what happened after that? Where did you go?”
Vincent scratched his head as if he was reminiscing, he said, “After that, Qiu Misri was injured and left with a bear with a strange speed. I saw that the bear was only between level five or six, so of course, I was not afraid of him. I then followed him into the dark!”
“Nonsense! Last night, all of us were chasing after that bear. Why didn’t anyone see you?”
Urgart could not help but berate.
Vincent, on the other hand, had an incredulous expression as he asked, “How is that possible? I chased after that bear all night and did not see a single helper? Are you sure that you were chasing after a bear?”
After hearing Vincent’s words, everyone in the meeting room, be it the students or the teachers, blushed and lowered their heads in embarrassment. This was because they really did not catch anything.
In that case, Vincent might have been the only one who went in the right direction last night!
A group of people chasing in the wrong direction, interrogating a person who chased after the bear tribe for an entire night. It was really ridiculous!
Urgart coughed a few times in embarrassment, and asked with some lack of foundation, “Since you chased for an entire night, did you get anything?”
Vincent said without the slightest hesitation, “I found the place where they were hiding!”
“No way!”
“Are you for real? Qiu Misri and that bear tribesman speed aren’t bad at all, and Vincent actually caught up?”
“Our entire school’s teachers and students combined are actually inferior to Vincent alone!”
Everyone was discussing animatedly. They were both envious and jealous of Vincent.
Urgart hurriedly walked in front of Vincent and asked in a hurried tone, “Are you for real? Don’t lie to your teacher just so that you won’t be punished. Do you know how serious this matter is!”
Vincent nodded and said, “Of course I know! I did find their hiding place. There are three people there now. I know I’m not their match, so I came back to ask for help!”
After hearing this, the whole place was in an uproar!
The teachers behind Urgart also started to whisper to each other, as if they were shocked by Vincent’s report.
“Vincent!”
“The principal is currently a guest in the Flying Snow Castle. Right now, only we teachers have the final say in the school. Now, let me ask you, do you dare to immediately bring us to the hiding place of the traitor? If your words are proven to be true, you will be the representative of the school to report to the principal. If we don’t find any traces of the traitor, you will bear all the consequences!” asked Urgart again.
“I agree!”
Vincent agreed without any hesitation.
After seeing this, a complicated look flashed across Urgart’s eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he turned his head and said to all the teachers and students, “Everyone, get ready. Follow Vincent to hunt down the bear tribe survivors!”
“Yes!”
The people who had just rested for a moment once again followed Vincent and left War School in a mighty manner. They ran all the way out of the city.
In the basement outside the city, Qiu Misri took out three bottles from his clothes. There were golden potions in them, he said to the man and woman in front of him, “This is a secret potion that can stimulate one’s potential. The effect can last for a day. After a day, you will be heavily exhausted. Later, we will run separately. We must not stop until we are exhausted. We must buy enough time for the Bear King’s emissary!”
“For the Bear King!”
The other two answered in unison. They then each took a bottle of medicine and drank it.
At the same time, all the teachers and students from War School quietly surrounded the basement under Vincent’s lead.
As the lead teacher, Urgart carefully observed the surrounding terrain. He then said to the other teachers behind him, “At the moment, we can’t be sure if there’s anyone inside. I’ll go check it out myself. If there’s any movement, you don’t have to worry about me. Immediately charge forward. We must not let the bear tribe survivors escape!”
“Alright!”
After receiving everyone’s firm reply, Urgart took another deep look at Vincent. He then stood up and walked towards the entrance of the basement.
As a guide, Vincent laid in the grass and watched Urgart walk into the basement. He suddenly understood something.
War School was one of the top four schools of the Beast World. How could they all chase in the wrong direction last night? There must be someone in the school who deliberately led them in the wrong direction. It was just that they hid it too deeply!
Not long after, an angry shout suddenly came from the basement.
“Catch them!”
Just as the voice reached everyone’s ears, three figures wearing black cloaks instantly drilled out from the basement and dashed out in three different directions. Their speed was beyond everyone’s imagination.
“Quick, split up and chase!”
The remaining teachers gave the order and everyone from War School started to chase after the three unidentified black figures in the vast wilderness.
At that moment, Vincent naturally took the lead and charged forward, chasing after one of the black figures with all his might.
Another day passed, and the students of War School once again returned empty-handed. Three groups of people gathered in the conference room of the school dejectedly.
“What a tragedy, what a tragedy! A dignified top-class school that used all its strength was actually unable to capture a bear tribe survivor and even caused a teacher to be seriously injured. This is really the tragedy of all of us!” said a bull-headed teacher with a human body. He showed a pained expression.
He stood on the podium and spoke to the teachers and students below the stage.
This was originally a job that belonged to Urgart, but it had been changed. Everyone immediately understood who the teacher that was seriously injured was.
“Vincent, go to the infirmary immediately. Teacher Urgart has something to tell you!”
The bull-headed teacher suddenly called out Vincent and asked him to leave the meeting room first.
The other students were not so lucky. After two nights and one day, not only could they not take a break, but they also had to continue to receive the teacher’s scolding. It was really tragic!
However, no one would have thought that the real mastermind behind the whole thing was currently walking out leisurely and was on the way to the infirmary.
Vincent took a deep breath when he was walking to the door of the infirmary. He pushed open the door with a smile and walked to the only bed that was occupied.
“Teacher Urgart, are you alright?” asked Vincent with good intentions as he walked to the window.
Urgart, who was still covered in blood and was obviously very weak, suddenly revealed a gratified smile when he saw Vincent. He said softly, “For the Bear King! I’m so happy to meet the messenger of the Bear King!”
“Huh?”
Vincent was stunned when he heard what he said. He then came to a realization.
No wonder Urgart’s reaction was so strange when he found out that he had found the hiding place of Qiu Misri.
No wonder Urgart would take the initiative to investigate the basement first!
So, he was the one who hid the deepest!
Presumably, Urgart had deliberately led them the wrong way last night. He let the other teachers and students wander around the city for a night in vain. Today, he had also deliberately created an opportunity for Qiu Misri and the others to break out of the siege, so he took the initiative to go to the basement first!
“So, Qiu Misri’s mole is you. I really didn’t expect it!”
Vincent did not pretend anymore and directly said to Urgart.
Urgart shook his head and said with a smile, “Actually, I’m not Qiu Misri’s accomplice. I’m just a beast who has submitted to Gajero but has been looking forward to the return of the Bear King. Believe me, there are many other beasts like me, so whatever you want to do, you can definitely do it!”
Vincent raised his eyebrows in surprise and nodded whilst saying, “Since that’s the case, then quickly arrange for me to go to Flying Snow Castle!”
