Ancient Tears BloodLine - Chapter 255
(From MC Perspective)
At Northern border,
Coincidentally, Mr. Jonathan is staying near the northern border. Since the beginning he has been closely monitoring the situation. From time to time he has been sending every information regarding Zack Lockwood back to his master. When Zack completed his Star Tower Challenge successfully and got 1st place in leaderboard ranking. His master asked him to come back and retrieve some stuff that he had prepared for Zack.
But suddenly the situation on the ground changes. People in the dark beginning to come forward. After discussing with his master he choose to stay behind. Right now he is staying in some old fashioned inn situated in the northern border town.
“Ding!”
Suddenly his watch buzzes with notification. Seeing that it’s a message from Zack, he read it immediately. He knows Zack won’t say anything unless it’s something important. After reading it carefully his expression condensed. “Right now, Crimson Hall’s team is at the Northern Border” He uttered. How does he know? He is confused. Normally this type of information is kept secret.
It’s even hard for any normal faction to know information about other factions. He feels something wrong so he called Zack.
…
Alternatively,
Instead of travelling through an air cab. I choose to walk for a while, I don’t want to pick up an air cab here. While walking I received a call from Mr. Jonathan. I ended the call since the location is not suitable for having a conversation . Rather, I sent him another message to have a conversation through message service.
[Chat Service]
[Mr. Jonathan: What Happened? Why are you not picking up the call?]
[Me: Can’t talk now, I need to meet you immediately.]
[Mr. Jonathan: Okay, Let us meet at Brooker town 2 hours later]
[Chat ends]
…
Mr. Jonathan furrows his eyebrow after having a small chat. He smells some kind of trouble looking at Zack’s message. Zack is known for having straightforward conversation. So he won’t say something like this unless there is something important. It’s good that he had already entered this town situated at the northern border some time ago.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

After pondering it, he decided to leave right away. There is not much stuff left out here. He didn’t buy any stuff in the first place. Since he stayed here to monitor the action of various forces. He thought it’s not good to stay here legally. So he booked this room by bribing the staff. After giving some extra money to staff he left right away.
Actually there are not many people left here in the border town. The border is in turmoil. He can feel the battle tremor here but the actual fight is going on somewhere from here. So all the shops were closed down. Only those who were in desperate need of money chose to open the shops. Fortunately he happens to bump into one of the shops.
While walking, he saw that not a soul could be found here on the street. Literally the street is looking like Ghost Street. A While ago few brave people could be seen on the street continuing their life as it is. But ever since the fight started at the border everyone fled.
Shaking his head, he ponders about his next plan. He needs to pick up a ride, fortunately the brooker town is far away from the actual battlefield. He won’t face any troubles midway.
Sometimes later,
He found air cab landing stations nearby. But none of the cab drivers were ready to go. All of them were quite scared for their life. These were normal people, none of them wanted to bump into enemy forces. They tend to eliminate all the possible evidence by killing people. Fearing that these drivers are not ready to listen to him.
Finally he told them to pay extra money. Only when he finished his words, one of the drivers raised his hands. Seeing that he agreed, he hopped into the car.
…
After arriving at the border of the town, I spotted an air cab. Then I told him to reach Brooker Town. The air can fly away the next moment. On the way I searched about Brooker Town. Mr. Jonathan may be near the town. At first I thought he had not entered the city. Fortunately, this saves me time.
I can ask his help on this matter. This might be my first time killing a fellow human. I never would have imagined this scenario to happen. But everything changed after the assassination attempt and got hunter by bounty hunters. I was always on the run. My strength is weaker than theirs.
But when facing Darius. I didn’t have that hesitation to kill him. “Sigh” it won’t be any surprise if I do this again. I heard there were others from Crimson Hall this time in competition. I immediately checked the leader board to see his remaining team number. There Were Six members, including him; there were four males and two female members in his team.
My eyebrows furrow for a moment, Outsiders won’t know anything about. But before dying Darius clearly mentioned it as a mission. Won’t others be looking for me right now? I wondered. I bet they won’t know about my current location. Shaking my head I removed these messy thoughts from my mind.
Two and half hours later,
The air cab landed at the Brooker Town’s landing station. On the way the driver acted overly cautious. Though there is no shadow of any turmoil here. Yet people still watch the news daily. The fighting updates were posted constantly on the websites. So far only the border took the brunt due to this fight.. I bet the star tower management won’t let it happen any longer.
