CHAPTER 1335: MORTON’S EVIL PLAN

From MC’s Perspective:

I was standing in the meeting hall. The faction leader and the main elders were discussing the future.

Faction Leader Clifford and the others heard the words of Main Elder Austin.

Clifford said, "Zack, if there is anyone who desires to harm you, you should not hold back. You can fight. I’m sure Dean Jerome must have eyes on such people."

Hearing that, I replied, "Don’t worry, Leader. I’ll take care of myself."

Clifford nodded in relief. Then he thought of something and said, "Okay, you can go back. I want to hear news of your next breakthrough soon."

Hearing that, I nodded to him and greeted the other main elders before walking out of the place.

Clifford watched Zack Lockwood leave. Once he left the meeting hall, he turned towards the others.

"You don’t have to worry about him. I think Dean Jerome is already keeping an eye on Zack. If there is anyone trying to harm Zack Lockwood, then he would know," Clifford said to Austin.

Then they shifted the topic and started discussing other matters.

About 20 minutes later,

I returned to the Golden Lightning Palace. As usual, I ignored the other warriors and came to the essence chamber.

I opened the door and walked inside. I had full access, so I didn’t have to worry about other things.

I turned on the switch. The outlet opened, and World energy began to fill the room.

I came to the middle and sat cross-legged on the ground. Then I closed my eyes and started focusing on the dull golden sealing rune in my mind.

The dull golden rune was lifelike.

Time went by.

The sealing rune became denser. At one point, the rune stopped throbbing.

Click!

The next second, I felt some shackle break. New information appeared in my mind. It was the second Chapter of the Sealing Force Method.

My heart stirred. Before I could digest the information, a dull golden stream of energy shot out from the sealing rune.

The special stream of energy entered my mind, soul, body, and inheritance force. All of this happened within seconds.

Click!

My mind and soul, which were already at the Silver Mark Level, continued to grow further.

Not only that, but my bones, muscles, veins, and inner organs were getting stronger. The mysterious stream of energy entered the dantian.

From the outside, the dantian looked the same. But the space inside the dantian grew.

Seeing that, I was not surprised. It was the same thing that happened when the Shock Force Integration Method broke through.

...

Core Hall

Silver Mark Warriors were practicing hard. A few of them were discussing Zack Lockwood being a Silver Mark Warrior.

Unfortunately, none of them could go and verify the news. There were warriors in the core hall who were close to the Klein Family.

They were following the news of Zack Lockwood. But the news that came this morning was a shock to them.

None of the Silver Mark Warriors believed it. Most of the warriors ignored the news. But the warriors belonging to the Klein Family were worried.

They didn’t know how to confirm the truth.

In the core hall, Morton Redford was present as well. This news was like a thunderclap falling on his head.

He immediately left the core hall and went to the public area. He wanted to meet any Thunderflame Faction member.

It didn’t take long for him to find a small group. Warriors from other Factions were asking questions to one of the warriors from the Thunderflame Faction.

When he got there, he heard that they were asking about Zack Lockwood as well. He paused his footsteps and continued to listen to their words.

"Yes, it’s true. Zack Lockwood is a Silver Mark Warrior. We have to call him Senior Brother hereafter," a middle-aged man from the Thunderflame Faction said.

"No, you are wrong."

"If it’s true, then why hasn’t he come out yet?" a warrior from the Elemental Faction asked.

Next, the other warriors surrounded the Thunderflame Faction Warrior and started asking questions.

Actually, they were warriors sent by their seniors to confirm the news. It would be too much for Silver Mark Warriors to seek the truth themselves.

So, they sent out their junior brothers.

But Silver Mark Warrior Morton Redford continued listening. He wanted to clear out these people and control the Thunderflame Faction Warrior alone.

The Thunderflame Faction Warrior found the atmosphere to be strange.

He said, "It’s not me. But the Senior Brothers and Sisters told us that Zack Lockwood is a Silver Mark Warrior."

Hearing that, the other warriors were shocked. The middle-aged man was serious, so they didn’t press further.

Morton Redford was angry. He couldn’t afford to wait any longer. The task given by the family was important. If he doesn’t do anything, then others will act.

Because he was not the only one who was ordered to take down Zack Lockwood. If he completes the task before others, then he can get more benefits.

He then thought of a plan. He thought Zack Lockwood wouldn’t be coming out any time soon. No one could force him to come out unless they did something to make him angry.

Morton had done some work and found out that Zack Lockwood had a few friends. One of them was Ronnie Seth of the Dark Variant Faction.

Earlier, he didn’t want to use this plan. Now he thinks he has no other option. Even if it means offending the Dark Variant Faction, he was ready to do that.

Then he walked away from the place. He was going to find juniors to teach a lesson to Ronnie Seth. According to the information he collected, Ronnie Seth is a Black Mark Warrior.

A few minutes later,

Morton Redford arranged a few men. They were looking around the Virtual Training Lab. They knew Ronnie Seth frequently visited the Virtual Training Lab.

At this time, Ronnie Seth was in the Dark Variant Faction. As usual, today he walked out of the Faction and was planning to go to the Virtual Training Lab. But he didn’t know the danger that awaited him.
