BXBX NOVEL Chapter 268 A Trap
Sophia looked at Bernard it wasn\'t that she didn\'t want him to follow her, she was just afraid it might be a trap although she knew he was strong even stronger than what others might think, but then she didn\'t want anything to harm her, if it anything she would prefer for him to stay out of it especially since she knew everything was caused by her, although she had no idea what deal Ryan might have done with the second years, nevertheless, the second years might have used her as an excuse.
Another reason was that with Bernard around, she would be afraid to go all out not only because he could be used to restrain her but because so far even though she was sure he was strong he didn\'t seem like the person who would want to go all out and reveal his true strength, it was like there was something restraining him, it could be the amount of energy it cost or his aboriginals parents, it was likely that even if his life was in danger he wouldn\'t still want to reveal his abilities.
After looking at Bernard for a while, she couldn\'t help but heave out a soft sigh, judging from the determined look on her face, she could see no matter what she said she wouldn\'t be able to convince him not to go, and thinking about it this was the reason she started to like him in the first place, she had always wanted someone who was so determined that nothing could change his mind and Bernard had been able to fill the space.
With that, Sophia agreed for the two of them to go together, without wasting time they soon continue and eventually after taking some turns they soon arrived at the location that was written on the piece of paper they had received before, however when they got to the place, there was a look of surprise on their expression, it wasn\'t that there was an army of second years, but this place was an old store hall room were damaged teleportation devices, stargates, and other important machines related to high danger zones were kept.
When they saw this they proceeded to walk inside with caution, they didn\'t know what the second years were planning so they had to be careful, they could see the place seemed to be dusty, not even the door of the place was working since they could see it was wide opened and the teleportation device door was even damage, together they began to walk deeper inside the store hall room.
The more they walked inside the more they realize how big the place was, not even several of the activities hall room was as big as this one, large metallic objects that had three huge rings placed inside one another ring could be seen, the closer the rings got to the center the small it was, they were made in a way that if they were placed standing the rings wouldn\'t fall, this was a large teleportation device, however, it was no longer functioning since there wasn\'t any blur glowing light.
This wasn\'t the only thing that could be seen in the place, since there were several huge stargates placed at the corners of the hall room, however, there weren\'t any swirling dark blue lights within them since there wasn\'t any inter stargate key to activate it, at this moment she was convinced the second years were up to something because they couldn\'t understand why they would kidnap Ryan and then bring him to this place.
Eventually, they kept passing different devices, machines, and mechanical suites, in the end, they could see different colors of mechanical suites in total, if they were to take a guess then it was likely related to what the staff wore and for a moment, it felt like the staffs had purposely opened the place down for the second years since this area was supposed to be out of reach for any students, not even the second years, although they were damage that didn\'t mean if there was enough energy they wouldn\'t activate themselves.
After looking for a while, they realize there was simply no one in the hall room, it was like someone had intentionally brought them there, however just as they were wondering if it was a prank or had been done purposely, that was when they noticed a not so audible sounds, they could hear from afar at first it seemed considering no one could be seen when they got to where the noise was coming from they could see Ryan was lying on the ground and was tied with a rope and was even gag with a cloth to his mouth.
He lay on the ground helplessly and kept trying to move, when Ryan saw them he couldn\'t help but heave a sigh of relief, while they held him they couldn\'t help but look around again but just like before no one was there, although he looked fine they could tell he was quite weak judging from the fact he couldn\'t move, it was like the second years did something to him but with no sign of injuries whatsoever which was a bit surprising.
"What happened to you, Ryan? was it the second year?"Bernard asked as he looked at him.
"Yeah, I had just finished training classes when I was about to go look for Sophia, that was when I got a message saying you guys needed help so I quickly rushed to this place, but then I saw no one and was suddenly attacked before they eventually left, "Ryan said breathing heavily.
"Alright, let\'s go to the clinic to treat you,"Bernard said and was about to lift Ryan up when he suddenly noticed for some reason Ryan seemed a bit stronger than usual from the way he clench his shoulder, when he did this Bernard suddenly had a strange feeling, this was from his vampire instinct, as he looked at Ryan again, he noticed that he was now looking at Sophia.
Bernard was about to ask why he was looking at Sophia that way, considering ever since he knew Ryan he was always afraid of Sophia that he never always look at her but then, he was looking at her not only he didn\'t seem to be afraid when doing so but he also seemed much bolder which was strange.
That was when he saw Ryan suddenly stood up by himself instantly, however on his hand was a dagger and slash straight at Bernard as he aimed for his heart, when he saw this Bernard immediately shouted, "Sophia it isn\'t Ryan, it\'s a trap."
[Name:Cain]
[Symbiote bloodline type:Unknown]
[HP:50]
But just as those words left his mouth, blood suddenly splashed on her face and when she looked to look she could see Bernard had been stabbed in his chest, however, that wasn\'t all the Ryan before them was gradually transforming into someone else.
"Bernard!"Sophia shouted.
Bernard was still holding his chest and was breathing heavily thankfully he had avoided a strike to the heart and was just stabbed in his chest, however, what he didn\'t notice was behind him a stargate that seemed like it was damaged, was gradually glowing with dark blue swirling light, the moment the light stabilize, a suction force from nowhere suddenly sent him flying towards the stargate, and the last thing he saw was darkness.
"What have you done to my Bernard, "Sophia shouted as she looked at the grade of the stargate that was clearly written on his body.
According to the grade of the stargate, he had been transported to a different star cluster a thousand planets away.
