Ch. 2591..2600
Chapter 2591 The Nightmare And The Devil
Levi was stunned.
He didn’t know what the eight of them were up to.
However, he was also curious about why they were here.
In a few ten seconds after receiving the message from Notos, Levi sensed the presence of eight individuals approaching him.
They were moving quickly, and they were really good at hiding their presence.
Well, at least they were good enough for no one else in Carigrey Academy except Levi to notice them.
Polar and seven others thought they were completely undetected as they didn’t leave any trail behind.
They stealthily approached Levi’s residence.
As if appearing out of thin air, they entered Levi’s residence. Polar even let out an ominous smile.
He thought they could capture Levi easily, just like taking candy from a baby, and capturing Levi alone would be enough.
Levi pretended to be asleep to see what they were going to do.
‘Wake up! Stop pretending!” Polar scoffed.
Levi smiled, opened his eyes, and sat up.
“Who are you guys? What are you doing here?” Levi immediately asked.
Scindere sneered. “We’re taking you somewhere! With your strength, I suggest you not resist! Otherwise, you will suffer in flesh and blood!”
To them, Levi was too weak with no chance of fighting them.
“Take him away!” Polar instructed the rest of the agents.
Two special forces agents stepped forward and shackled Levi’s hands and feet with advanced handcuffs.
Then, they picked him up and left in a flash.
Levi did not resist and allowed them to take him away.
He wanted to see what they were up to.
The eight of them took Levi out of Carigrey Academy quickly.
Notos saw the eight of them carrying Levi away when he was monitoring the area.
He burst out in laughter.
His stomach started to hurt from all the laughing as if he just heard the funniest joke in the world.
These fools never had the slightest idea who they were carrying back.
He’s one of the elders!
He recalled the movies from Zarain. They often dug up demons and the like and brought them back, which was no different from what was transpiring in front of his eyes.
After leaving the perimeter of Carigrey Academy altogether, an airship arrived to meet them.
After putting Levi on the airship, they immediately took off and left at full speed.
Levi was having a good sleep.
In a daze, he heard some voices in his ear.
Levi opened his eyes only to find himself in an unfamiliar place.
He was in a laboratory that looked modern and advanced.
Apart from the eight individuals who took him, there were many others present.
One of them, who had a black hawk tattooed on his neck, saw Levi waking up.
“Why are you so afraid of him? Do you even need to shackle him? Are you afraid of him escaping?” Black Hawk said disdainfully.
Polar patted his head. “Right. With his strength, there’s no need for us to be afraid.”
“How embarrassing! We even used the strongest cuffs from Shield! Unless they have the help of the divine tool, no one will be able to free themselves! Not even the top ten of the Divine Leaderboard could escape! These cuffs are for restraining enemies of the highest level!” Scindere said.
Levi was impressed by the shackles they used.
The quality and design of the cuffs were highly advanced.
It was indeed difficult for him to free himself.
Even someone with the strength of the Divine Brigadier would not be able to free themselves from these chains.
“Levi. Oh, Levi. Do you remember? You once charged into Zarain alone and massacred us! We couldn’t do anything against you other than watching you get away! You were the nightmare of Zarain, the devil we all hated! It was you who brought us great shame!
“Time to time, we would still think of the sword you stuck in our land. It was our eternal agony!”
As Black Hawk spoke, everyone glared at Levi with eyes full of anger!
Everything Black Hawk said was true.
Everyone in Zarain wanted to skin him alive.
They could feel the hatred boiling within whenever they laid eyes on him, and they wanted to torture him in the cruelest way possible!
Chapter 2592 Another Horrible Enemy
Black Hawk mocked, “Look, we managed to abduct you easily. You’re no match for us. There’s a saying in Erudia, ‘Every dog will have his day.’ Previously, we were afraid of your existence, but today, we can mess around with you! Ah, reality is harsh. I can’t bring myself to hate you after realizing how weak you are.”
“Yes, you need to become stronger so we can hate you. Now that you’re as weak as an ant, we can’t gain pleasure from tormenting and killing you!”
Everyone else shared his sentiments.
Levi was too weak, so they couldn’t get a sense of achievement after defeating him.
Levi was amused by their reactions.
He chuckled and declared, “You may try!”
“Don’t worry. We’ll make sure you get a taste of your own medicine. Remember how you marched in and out of Zarain mercilessly and killed everyone in sight? We shall make you pay! Just you wait. Soon, the first indestructible fighter of Zarain will arrive at Erudia. He’ll do the same thing you did to Zarain back then!” Black Hawk announced.
Levi felt his heart sank.
As Zarain had kept a low profile over the years, he had forgotten all about them.
Clearly, they were plotting something.
After all, they had always claimed to be the strongest presence on earth.
They had never given up on their dream to conquer the world.
There was also a possibility that they were mightier than Lab of Gods.
Back then, Zarain and Lab of Gods were actually cooperating instead of one working for the other.
To make it short, they were both formidable enemies to Levi!
Oh, no! Levi’s expression turned grim. Are they going to reenact what I did back in Zarain? That person must be really capable of doing that. But I’ve studied the Divine Leaderboard, and there’s no such person in Zarain. That fighter must be Zarain’s trump card. That’s horrible. Though Dark Web had claimed to list out all the fighters in the world, they must’ve missed out on this one.
Suddenly, something occurred to Levi.
Wait, could it be behind the stone plaque? There are many names engraved there!
Levi recognized some of the names engraved on the back of the stone plaque, but some were unfamiliar to him.
He had always thought they were part of Lab of Gods.
He was wrong, for they were a bunch of supernatural beings who weren’t listed on the Divine Leaderboard.
One of them must be the superior being from Zarain! I need to find out who they are. I had memorized the list, anyway.
Suddenly, Levi realized danger was lurking around.
Fortunately, he was informed of the strong presence in Zarain beforehand and could prepare for the attack.
It would be horrible if they were attacked without knowing it.
Black Hawk and the others guffawed. “Don’t worry. It will be a horrifying sight!”
They couldn’t wait for that day to arrive.
“Cut the crap. Tell me, why did you kidnap me? It doesn’t look like you’re going to kill me,” Levi asked.
“Of course! It won’t be fun to take your life. I want you to see how Erudia gets wiped out!” Black Hawk let out a menacing smirk. “We abducted you to get back the seventeen subordinates who Erudia captured earlier! Apparently, you’re a prominent figure in Erudia. You’re the perfect hostage for us to get our men back!”
Finally, Levi understood why he was captured.
They took me as a hostage to get their men back. They even know I’m a prominent figure back in Erudia. People must’ve assumed I’m powerful after I stole the divine tool in Carigrey Academy but didn’t get punished. It must be Lab of Gods’ spies who told them the news.
It was obvious that Shield had collaborated with Lab of Gods.
If he had suspected them before, he now knew for sure.
The situation now was like Shield had delivered themselves into his hand, and he didn’t even have to search for them.
With that thought in mind, Levi burst out laughing heartily.
Chapter 2593 I Will Do It Myself
Everyone was confused.
Why is he laughing?
They cast puzzled glances in his direction.
Black Hawk questioned, “Are you laughing at the fact that you can be used to exchange for our men?”
Levi ignored him and continued laughing.
As Shield had swum into the net themselves, they wouldn’t need the seventeen men, who were Black Hawk’s subordinates.
Even if they were interrogated, they would reveal Black Hawk at most, for they worked for him.
Now that Black Hawk and Shield had exposed themselves, he no longer needed the seventeen men.
That was why Levi was chortling.
“Contact Carigrey Academy now and inform them of the exchange!”
Black Hawk got to work immediately.
Soon, they managed to contact Daxon.
They asked for the release of the seventeen men in exchange for Levi.
They claimed that Levi was a threat to world peace.
Daxon snorted.
He had been wondering why Levi had disappeared.
It turned out that he was abducted by Black Hawk.
Daxon requested, “Let me know that Crown King is still alive.”
Hearing that, Black Hawk and the rest exhaled in relief.
They finally confirmed that Mr. X wasn’t lying to them.
Indeed, Levi was an important figure for them to carry out the deal.
“Here, you can talk to him,” Black Hawk said as he handed the communication device to Levi.
Daxon asked, “Do you agree to the exchange?”
“Of course. Do you want me to die in their hands? Hurry, send them back now!” Levi urged.
Black Hawk and the rest assumed he was afraid of them.
“All right. Let me talk to Shield.”
Daxon immediately understood what Levi meant.
The seventeen men are of no use to us anymore!
“Divine Brigadier, release the seventeen men. When we confirm they are safe, we’ll release Levi,” Black Hawk stated.
Daxon responded, “Huh? Will you go back on your word? After I release them, you might not release Erudia’s Crown King!” He was saying this on purpose.
Black Hawk cast Levi a contemptuous look. “Don’t worry. He’s no match for us, and we can capture him anytime. I won’t go back on my word.”
To them, Levi was a weakling who they could capture anytime.
There was no need to go back on their word just because of him.
Besides, they needed Levi to be alive to witness what would happen next.
It wasn’t enough to keep Levi locked up. They wanted him to suffer.
Thus, Shield decided to release Levi and then recapture him.
Their plan was to taunt and disregard Levi and Erudia.
That was way better than keeping him locked up.
After the negotiation ended, Daxon went to the seventeen special forces agents who were captured and sent them back to Zarain.
Around eight hours later, the seventeen special forces agents arrived at Zarain.
Shield brought them back to their location and made sure they weren’t questioned or revealed any information.
Everyone in Shield, especially Black Hawk, heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, he couldn’t afford to expose Lab of Gods to the public.
No one could find out that they still existed.
“We need to release him now.”
Black Hawk returned to the training base where Levi was locked up.
He ordered, “Unlock his cuffs and send him back to Erudia.”
Without warning, Levi flashed a mysterious smile.
“No need. I’ll do that myself.”
With that, he exerted force.
Boom! Click! Click!
A terrifying power caused the cuffs to break into pieces. Shield thought it was impossible for any prisoner to escape from the cuffs, but they were wrong.
It shattered into pieces before their eyes.
A suffocating silence fell…
Chapter 2594 Shield Will Disappear
Black Hawk, Scindere, and Polar were stunned into silence.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The sight of Levi breaking free of the cuffs caused their jaws to drop open in shock.
Oh, dear! What was that? Did we just witness something this horrifying? Was that even possible? Was it a dream?
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Someone even slapped himself to make sure he wasn’t dreaming.
Alas, it had happened for real.
“Oh, dear. I can’t believe it really happened!”
Never in their wildest dreams did they expect this to happen, for they knew how frightening the cuffs were.
The pair of cuffs was developed by Shield.
It had nothing to do with Lab of Gods, for it belonged to Shield entirely.
Nobody knew where they got the technology from.
There was a huge possibility that they had developed it themselves.
The material couldn’t be found anywhere in the world, so it was unknown where Shield got it from.
However, they had experimented on it many times.
Once a man was cuffed, he wouldn’t be able to unlock it without the key.
Back when Karsten was alive, they tried it on him, and he couldn’t unlock it himself.
Even the top three fighters ranked on the Divine Leaderboard wouldn’t be able to break free from the cuffs.
Thus, it was their most prized possession.
Thus, they named it as “The Infrangible Handcuffs.”
To their utter shock, Levi merely flicked his wrists and destroyed The Infrangible Handcuffs easily.
They just couldn’t imagine how powerful he was.
Is he God? How did he break the handcuffs made of an unbreakable material?
They had never even heard of the existence of anyone like him!
Wait a minute. We’re talking about Levi here. He’s a weakling who didn’t even make it to the Provisional Leaderboard! Are the rumors real? He’s powerful enough to rank on the Divine Leaderboard! In fact, he is beyond the Divine Leaderboard! Who was the one who spread the rumors?
Finally, they knew it was a mistake to assume Levi was a wimp who they could bully.
Their initial plan of messing around with him wouldn’t work, for they were no match for him.
Comprehension dawned, and they felt like their heads were going to explode from the overload of information.
Finally, they understood why Levi didn’t fight back when the eight special forces agents captured him.
He had followed them here obediently on purpose to see what was going on here.
In short, they had been tricked!
Black Hawk recalled how his men were abducted by Levi.
He was reminded of Levi and Daxon’s conversation.
Daxon was actually asking for Levi’s opinion instead of wanting to confirm that he was alive!
Finally, Mr. X’s words made sense—Levi was respected because he was a capable person!
Everything made perfect sense now.
The seventeen men weren’t interrogated, but they had exposed themselves.
That was something that Erudia couldn’t obtain even after questioning the seventeen men.
After destroying the handcuffs, Levi sat down and grinned.
Scindere was about to press the alarm button when Black Hawk stopped him.
“N-No. Even if everyone in Shield finds out about it, we won’t be able to stop him. Besides, the consequences will be horrible. Shield will disappear from the face of the earth as he’ll wipe us out. It’s no use pressing the button!” he revealed in a shaky voice.
As Levi was strong enough to destroy The Infrangible Handcuffs, it meant he was also strong enough to wipe Shield out of existence.
Chapter 2595 Finding Lab Of Gods
Levi chuckled. “You’re smart to grasp the situation.”
“You must have an ulterior motive to get kidnapped by my men. It’s easy for you to kill us all,” Black Hawk responded. “You were the one who kidnapped my seventeen subordinates, right?”
“Yes, that’s right. I was the one who kidnapped them. I had no idea you’d abduct me to get them back. Lab of Gods had told you I’m important to Erudia and you can offer me in exchange for your men, right?”
Hearing that, Black Hawk immediately realized Levi knew everything.
He blurted out, “Could it be Dark Emperor…”
Levi’s expression told him everything.
There was no mysterious being, for that was Levi in person.
Back then, Levi was powerful enough to be Zarain and Lab of Gods’ biggest enemy.
He was still their biggest enemy now.
Suddenly, Black Hawk burst into laughter.
Lab of Gods, Mr. X, you had no idea Levi, who you looked down on, known of your existence all the while. The three men you’ve been looking for are all Levi’s alter egos! What a joke!
By now, Levi had figured everything out now.
Instead of hiding the truth, Black Hawk answered honestly, “Yes, you’re right. Lab of Gods still exists. They contacted me recently and told me to investigate the head of the ancient Garrison clan. I believe you know the men who contacted me—Lucifer and Mr. X. They…”
Black Hawk proceeded to reveal everything to Levi.
Levi flashed a smirk. “Great, they are my old acquaintances. Where are they?”
“I have to admit that Lab of Gods is smart. They are in Oakland City, Erudia.”
Hearing that, Levi nearly jolted up in shock.
“They are in Erudia?”
That had never crossed his mind.
No wonder I tracked the pure energy beings from Restricted Area 76 to Erudia. I initially thought they discovered me and led me to Erudia on purpose. They went on separate ways in Erudia. I picked one to track and lost sight of him in Oakland City.
He belatedly realized that they hadn’t discovered him or were trying to shake him off their tracks. Erudia was their destination.
They went on separate ways in Erudia for they had bases all around the country.
Oakland City was one of their bases.
Finally, it all made sense now.
Levi couldn’t help but marvel at the fact that Lab of Gods had reappeared in Erudia.
Who would have thought of that?
“What should I do? Should I lure them out so you can kill them all?” Black Hawk asked.
Levi shook his head. “Not for the moment. Pretend nothing had happened and keep in touch with Lab of Gods. I’ll let you know when I need your help.”
I wonder how powerful Lab of Gods is now. It isn’t a good idea to take action recklessly. Besides me, I don’t think anyone else who is capable enough to go against Lab of Gods.
Levi wanted to wipe Lab of Gods out single-handedly, but he was worried about what would happen if he couldn’t do that.
Thus, he had to make sure it was a foolproof plan.
He would have to train more men, and increase his own strength and trump cards to go against Lab of Gods.
Besides that, he would also have to find out how capable Lab of Gods was, and what they were planning.
After all, “Know thyself and know thy enemies” was the secret to victory.
He could kill a weak enemy with one punch. However, as this concerned an unknown enemy, Levi wouldn’t want to fight an unprepared battle.
Suddenly, Levi turned to Black Hawk. “Of course, you can tell Lab of Gods about me.”
Chapter 2596 Hint From Black Hawk
Black Hawk shook his head. “I’m not a fool. All I want is to stay alive. I’m certain they’ll kill me if I tell them about you. If both sides come for me, I’ll be doomed!”
He was smart enough to submit to Levi after weighing the pros and cons.
Levi smiled. “I’m glad you’re afraid of dying. If you’re not a coward, I won’t be able to carry out my plan!”
He glanced at the rest. “Of course, I won’t trust you wholeheartedly. My men will keep watch on you and your family all the time. The same goes for everyone here.”
Everyone blanched in horror.
It was terrifying to learn that someone would be keeping watch on you in the dark all the time.
They knew Levi was capable of doing that.
However, they didn’t know that Levi was lying.
He wasn’t about to send his men to keep an eye on them.
His words stunned them into silence.
“Do your equipment belong to Lab of Gods?” Levi asked.
Black Hawk nodded. “Yes.”
“No wonder it looks different from what the others have. Give it to me so I can study it,” Levi said.
Black Hawk gave the equipment to him obediently.
In the end, Shield sent Levi back to Erudia.
Black Hawk immediately contacted Lab of Gods and informed Mr. X about the development.
“Mr. X, Levi seems different now,” he said deliberately.
“Yes, he used to be our enemy, so he’s different now. I’m not even interested in ending his life!” Mr. X replied. Clearly, he didn’t understand Black Hawk’s hint.
One wouldn’t think otherwise.
“Be careful with your investigation. I believe the ancient Garrison clan has noticed you.”
Mr. X was disappointed, for it meant that Shield hadn’t accomplished anything.
He could only rely on Senior Disciple.
On the other hand, Zoey and the rest surrounded Levi upon his arrival.
They wanted to know if Levi was hurt.
In fact, most of them wanted to see Levi make a fool of himself.
However, Levi’s students were unfazed.
They knew no one was capable enough of abducting their teacher.
Though they weren’t sure what had happened, they were certain that Levi had allowed himself to be abducted.
With that, Levi led his team back to their spot.
“Get back to training. You’ll have to enter solitary training. Nothing shall stop you from training!”
After finding out about Lab of Gods, Levi knew there wasn’t much time left.
He had to hurry up.
He ordered his students to focus on training.
After that, he gathered Daxon and the others.
“By the way, has Edmund mastered the Iron Golem Technique?” Levi asked.
If Edmund could master the Iron Golem Technique, it would be a great help.
Daxon shook his head. “I don’t know.”
“Come on. Let’s find out!”
Levi and Daxon went to the place where Edmund was training.
From afar, they could hear something buzzing.
It seemed like he was achieving Level Eight soon!
Clearly, Edmund had been working very hard.
After receiving Levi’s guidance, he was already trying to achieve Level Eight.
It was unbelievable.
Daxon flashed a proud smile at his son’s achievement.
However, Levi furrowed his brows.
He’s too slow! I thought he’d be trying to achieve Level Nine by now. Alas, he is only at Level Eight.
Levi had instructed Edmund and taught him a lot for him to get where he was now.
Chapter 2597 Creating Fighters
Edmund had benefited a lot from his teachings.
After all, Levi had mastered the Iron Golem Technique completely.
With his help, Edmund wouldn’t have to take any unnecessary steps and reached Level Eight easily.
However, it was hard for him to break through Level Nine in such a short time.
Hence, he couldn’t meet Levi’s need for now.
“It’s too late. I was thinking of training them for a while before picking new talents. Now, I have to carry out my plan ahead of time. A competition will take place seven days later. I’ll assume the position of Dark Emperor and the other two to pick new talents. I shall train the new recruits personally!” Levi announced.
“Got it!” Daxon nodded.
As soon as word got out, Carigrey Academy exploded in a frenzy.
Everyone had been here for a month.
They had been waiting for the chancellor and the two vice-chancellors to instruct them personally, and their wish was about to come true.
Everyone started exclaiming in excitement.
Even the spies sent by Lab of Gods were excited, for they had been waiting to meet Dark Emperor and the other two.
After visiting Edmund, Levi went to Donald and Tyrone.
They were talented enough to improve swiftly after guidance from Levi.
There was a good chance for them both to be Super Fighters Levi needed.
Nevertheless, it would take some time before that could happen.
After sensing danger, Levi was already wondering how to develop Super Fighters in the shortest time possible.
As of now, Death Fiend and the others were sufficient, for they had consumed the blood of Gods from Restricted Area 76.
Yet, they couldn’t absorb the power completely.
But there weren’t enough Super Fighters.
The men he had were still far from enough, so they would be cannon fodders when a fight ensued.
He needed Super Fighters to intimidate the enemy.
Levi decided to utilize all the resources he got from Restricted Area 76 to create the fighters.
There was still someone he needed.
Levi made his way to North Hampton to find out how Cyrus, Mia, and Wynona were doing.
Cyrus’ aura was weak and diminishing.
He looked like a candle about to extinguish soon.
Which meant that it could only mean one thing—Cyrus’ training had worked.
He was about to turn into a Super Fighter!
That was exactly what Levi wanted.
Cyrus’ training had shown results.
Though he wasn’t as talented as Levi, he had shown his maximum potential and talent.
Indeed, he was the strongest in his field.
If his solitary training was successful, he would top the Divine Leaderboard. However, he wouldn’t be a match for Levi, of course.
Levi was pleased with the results.
Mia’s aura was getting weaker, so she was also getting somewhere.
That showed that she had fully grasped the basic techniques.
However, she hadn’t gotten as far as Cyrus yet.
So, she would have to continue her training.
Obviously, she wouldn’t be able to help Levi with her training speed.
Compared to them both, Wynona was still a rookie.
Previously, she had to protect everyone and wasted a lot of time.
Levi breathed a sigh of relief, for he had one Super Fighter now—Fiery Demon.
However, that was far from enough.
He would need at least a dozen Super Fighters to go against Lab of Gods.
What about a fast-track technique? The only one I’ve heard of is the Divine Extraction Technique.
A person who mastered the Divine Extraction Technique would be able to suck in a lot of power to become a fighter in a short time.
Alas, Levi hadn’t mastered it, so that wouldn’t work in his favor.
Instead of sucking someone else’s power, Levi wondered if he could suck the energy from the crystal to create four fighters.
Wait, the crystal’s energy!
A brilliant idea popped up in Levi’s mind.
Chapter 2598 The Fearsome Four
Previously, Levi was busy wondering how to make human beings Super Fighters.
However, they had let him down.
They also didn’t have the Divine Extraction Technique to suck someone else’s power.
Levi couldn’t possibly inject the crystal’s energy into their bodies.
It wouldn’t be a problem if they could withstand it. However, if the energy was too much for them, they would explode at once.
Therefore, he couldn’t experiment on them, not even on someone as powerful as Daxon.
Just then, Levi had an idea. Super Fighters didn’t have to be humans.
He could get them in another way.
For example, machines, or even the mutated zombies created by Maya Industries.
There were a lot of them, so he could experiment on them freely.
Besides, he could control them after making them Super Fighters.
They weren’t as complicated as human beings, who had their own opinion.
With that thought in mind, Levi went to the hidden base of Maya Industries.
“Gather all the mutated zombies. I need them now!” he commanded.
A total of three hundred thousand mutated zombies were gathered in no time.
Levi was shocked to find out there were so many of them.
The staggering number reflected how crazy Maya Industries was.
As Maya Industries had trained them previously, the mutated zombies were skilled at launching attacks.
They were a deadly force.
Yet, Levi found them useless.
Lab of Gods had known of their existence, so the mutated zombies wouldn’t pose as a threat to them.
Besides, it was Lab of Gods who came out with the mutated zombie project.
They planned to use it on huge living beings, but Maya Industries used the technology on humans instead.
It didn’t matter anymore to Levi, for Lab of Gods wouldn’t discover what his plan was.
For the next few days, Levi checked the condition of every mutated zombie personally.
In the end, he selected three hundred and sixty-five qualified ones.
Next, Levi carried out his plan to inject the crystal’s energy and the resources from Restricted Area 76—the God’s golden blood among others—into the mutated zombies.
After doing that, he would eliminate the disqualified mutated zombies and select the best ones.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
There were less than fifty mutated zombies left from the initial three hundred and sixty-five zombies.
However, the elimination had to go on.
On the other hand, Levi ordered Sacred Organization to use the metal resources from Restricted Area 76 to make a few war machines.
They were given powerful energy and equipped with Levi’s divine tools
No matter how capable Lab of Gods was, Levi wanted Sacred Organization to develop robots with great fighting abilities.
He wanted robots who could gather a horrifying amount of power and use the divine tools.
Thus, the robots were powerful fighting machines!
Only the resources from Restricted Area 76 could meet Levi’s expectations and become Super Fighters.
Humans couldn’t do that, but the robots could.
After getting the divine tools developed by Levi, they would grow more powerful.
There were a total of four war machines, so Levi named them Fearsome Four.
Levi estimated that thirteen of the mutated zombies would be selected to be Super Fighters.
The thirteen of them would use up the remaining crystal’s energy.
Levi had a rough idea in mind of who the thirteen mutated zombies were.
He decided to label them from number one until number thirteen.
He was going all out to create Super Fighters.
Fortunately, Levi had the resources from Restricted Area 76.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to carry out his plan.
As Super Fighters were created, Levi finally felt at ease.
Seven days went past in a flash, and it was time for Levi to pick the talents in Carigrey Academy.
Chapter 2599 In The Open
Everyone would first battle against each other to show their talents.
The students had lined up on the square, ready for the competition to begin.
It was an opportunity for both the ones who wanted to increase their strengths and the spies sent by Lab of Gods, so everyone was excited.
Soon, the teachers showed up, including Levi.
“Eh? Where are Levi’s students? Why is he alone? Won’t they take part in the competition?”
“Yes. This is a great opportunity for them!”
“We came here to become the chancellor’s and vice-chancellors’ students, right?”
“We’ve only been here for one month. Even if we have our respective teachers, our strengths had increased at the same pace. This is the only chance for them to rise up the ranks. If they miss this chance, the gap between us will get bigger. They won’t get another chance to defeat us!”
Everyone voiced out their opinions one by one.
Eskild and the rest sneered, “The fools won’t be here. They are silly enough to give up on this great opportunity just for Levi’s sake!”
“What a bunch of idiots!”
Hearing their criticism, Zoey and the others felt rather uneasy.
Indeed, Levi was the reason they refused to take part in the competition.
They wanted to tell Levi to allow his students to join the competition.
The chance of getting him to agree was slim, but it was better than nothing.
As the chancellor and vice-chancellors were selecting talents personally, it would be foolish to give up on the chance.
Letting the chance slip from their hands would also mean their training at Carigrey Academy was doomed.
They would have to rely on Levi forever.
Zoey and the rest sympathized with them and decided to help them in other ways.
Initially, everyone was standing up for Troy and the other students, but they soon got busy preparing for the upcoming battle.
“Besides Crown King’s students, the other students would be joining the competition. It’s a one-on-one battle to showcase your talents. Two students would then fight against each other…”
Daxon announced the start of the competition.
At once, thousands of students began battling against each other in the square.
The teachers took the seats allocated to them in advance.
The students glanced at the teachers anxiously, for they were eager to see the chancellor and vice-chancellors.
They will be here to pick their students. Will they show themselves or hide somewhere to carry out the selection in secret?
After a while, the students slumped in disappointment.
There was only one empty seat, and that seat belonged to Levi.
Levi had got to his feet and dashed forward to glance at the massive battle.
He would inch nearer and scrutinize the students carefully without missing any detail.
Soon, the battle grew more intense as everyone did their best to showcase their skills.
Levi was the busiest person, for he had to observe every team.
His figure flitted across the square.
As Daxon and the likes knew what Levi was doing, they were unfazed.
However, the rest were confused by Levi’s strange action.
Previously, there was a rumor saying Levi was learning their skills discreetly, so his action proved that the rumor was right.
He’s using his identity as a teacher to learn our skills in the open! The students were fuming inwardly.
Alas, they couldn’t do anything about it, for even the divine tool incident ended without a conclusion.
While battling against their opponents, Zoey and the likes didn’t forget to observe Levi.
They knew he was a proud person and was doing this to increase his strength.
Some could bear his antics, but some refused to take it lying down, especially when they didn’t know where the chancellors were.
Gerhard roared, “Can you scram? You’re affecting my performance!”
Chapter 2600 Wasting Time
Gerhard and Eskild were spies who had to prove themselves so Dark Emperor would pick them.
That was the only way they could complete their mission.
However, Levi was wandering around and distracted them.
Hence, Gerhard and the likes couldn’t take it anymore.
Soon, more students came to a stop and accused Levi of distracting them.
They demanded for Levi to leave the square.
Levi glanced at Gerhard and said, “Don’t worry. You won’t be picked anyway.”
“W-Who do you think you are? You’re not the one making the choices! Why should I trust you?” Gerhard fumed.
“Get out! You’re affecting our performance!” the rest chimed in angrily.
“If you’re easily distracted, why would we pick you? Are you sure you won’t get distracted in battle in the future? Will you fight against the enemy one on one? Will you ask the enemy not to distract you?”
Levi didn’t mind if the spies accused him, but he was furious to hear the other students sharing their sentiments.
If they were easily distracted, there was no way they could bear the responsibility.
No matter how talented they were, they were still weaklings.
Levi would never pick them.
He observed them and the others who focused on their battles.
“Hey, Levi. The teachers are in their seats, except for you, who came among us to create trouble. Even if you want to learn their skills, you shouldn’t be doing that now. First, you’re affecting their performance. Second, the chancellor and vice-chancellors are making choices. You’re affecting them too!” Asura chided.
He glared at Levi and said, “Stop saying that distractions are everywhere in war. If someone like you were to distract me on the battlefield, I’ll take you out before going for the enemy! But I can’t do that now!”
His words made sense, so everyone else joined in to protest.
“Stop talking nonsense. The chancellor and vice-chancellors are selecting talents, not you!”
Levi flashed a grin, for he was the one who would be selecting the talents.
He had been wandering around the square to select the suitable candidates.
The deeper he delved in, the more detailed his selection would be.
“All right. Stop fighting. Remember, the chancellor and vice-chancellors might be watching us. If you stop, it might affect your performance,” Zoey reminded.
Hearing that, everyone snapped back to reality and immediately resumed fighting.
Levi was no longer important, and he wasn’t distracting anymore.
After all, it was more important to showcase their skills to the chancellor and vice-chancellors.
The battle resumed, and everyone did their very best.
Finally, Levi finished his observation and got to understand each and every student.
He had made his choices.
It would be impossible to create Super Fighters who would meet his expectations, but they could be future Super Fighters.
The teachers had taught all their skills to their respective students for the past month, and the students had the basic skills.
Levi would only have to instruct and train them so they could master their respective skills to become strong fighters like Daxon and Eustace.
The battle was still ongoing, for everyone wanted to outshine the others.
It began with one-on-one duels but gradually escalated into one student against multiple students.
The spies ended up fighting against a few hundred opponents each.
If possible, they would wipe everyone out to achieve their goal.
Alas, they had no idea their efforts were in vain.
No one was interested in them, for the person who was here to pick the talents had spun on his heels to leave.
Levi left the crowd and went onto the stage. He announced, “All right. You can stop now!”
