Chapter 1649: Part 6: Half-Step Red Mark Warrior

Dark Planet

The high-command creatures assembled for the meeting again. This time, the Quasi-God powerhouses had decided not to send their elite creatures anymore.

They had negotiated with the human-side powerhouses. The situation on the secret land battlefield returned to its previous state.

The current situation had disappointed them. The weird-shaped creature, the oval-shaped creature, and the wing-shaped creature went through the battle reports.

Their foreign creatures had not been as effective as the elite creatures. The human side was able to fight for a longer time. No one-sided slaughter had happened.

Both sides had fought toe-to-toe against each other.

Neither side had gained the upper hand. In the end, the time limit forced the battle to end and expelled both sides from the space crack.

None of them were happy. If they wanted to get good results, they had to defeat and kill the human warriors in large numbers.

They decided to make the ordinary creatures more bloodthirsty and angry. Only then could they slaughter the human side.

None of the high-command creatures were thinking about one person. That one person was none other than Zack Lockwood.

Even the Elite Creature Quasi-God Powerhouses had decided to drop the matter. They were not going to discuss the human warrior.

But there were other high commanders in the meeting as well. Some of them discussed the genius human warrior. They wanted to know whether he had appeared or not.

The three high-command creatures knew that question was coming to them. The oval-shaped creature said, "The human side has hidden the genius Purple Mark warrior. He won’t appear here again."

"So don’t talk about the young man again," it added.

Hearing that, the other creatures fell silent. They could guess something. They knew it had to be related to the Quasi-God Powerhouses like Venom Maw and the others.

They didn’t want to talk about them. Who knew? If they mistakenly offended them, they could end up dead. ℴ

All the other high-command creatures became quiet. The oval-shaped creature, the weird-shaped creature, and the wing-shaped creature noticed the change.

That was why they were quiet as well. Unlike the others, if they angered the higher-ups, they were going to bear the brunt of it first.

Next, they shifted the topic and began to discuss how to improve the situation.

United City (Tier-3 Sub-Post)

Days passed.

The Red Mark Warriors were busy practicing inside the training camps one by one. They were using every facility inside the training camps.

They were terrified by the elite creatures. The threat of the elite creatures was pushing them to work hard.

On the other hand, the administration office received the personal resources of the council elders. All the council elders had sent some resources.

They wanted the resources to be given to Zack Lockwood so that he could become a Half-Step Red Mark Warrior as soon as possible.

None of the council elders knew about Zack Lockwood’s current situation, but they wanted to send support from their side.

This was so no one could blame the elders in the future. They knew that the Quasi-Gods were paying attention to Zack Lockwood.

Some were doing it for the sake of the Quasi-Gods; they didn’t want to be targeted by them. Meanwhile, a few others didn’t want Zack Lockwood to remain in the Sub-Post.

They wanted Zack Lockwood to be in the main post. If Zack Lockwood continued to stay here, they were afraid that the situation might return to its previous state.

A few others simply wanted the well-being of Zack Lockwood. If Zack Lockwood became a Half-Step Red Mark Warrior, he would have more strength to protect himself.

The well-wishers of Zack Lockwood were Elder Rowena and the other elders of the Red Moon University. The Star University elders wanted the best for Zack Lockwood as well.

The rest were doing it out of fear of the Quasi-Gods.

The administration staff then took the resources to Zack Lockwood’s flat.

At times, they didn’t find Zack Lockwood because he was busy practicing inside his room, so they left him a message. Once Zack Lockwood was free, they gave all the resources to him.

Meanwhile,

I had been focusing on the sealing force inheritance. Like the other inheritance forces, the sealing force inheritance was taking a lot of time as well.

Slowly, the color of the sealing force rune was deepening. The resources given by the council elders were helping a lot. During the process, I stopped paying attention to outside news.

A few hours later,

Inside the essence chamber, the dull golden shield rune in my mind had become denser. It didn’t take long for the sealing force to enter the stage of Half-Step Red Mark Warrior.

The dull golden shield rune had become solid. The power radiating from the rune was extremely formidable. Right then, my physique underwent further transformation.

It absorbed the world energy and the special energy once again. The transformation pushed my body past its limits.

I spent time stabilizing the new strength. When the strength was stabilized, I shifted my attention to the runes in my mind.

The blood force ring-type rune, the dark purple lightning bolt, the bloodline water drop rune, the shock force rune, and the shield-type rune of the sealing force had all entered the Half-Step Red Mark Rank.

There was an ancient, incomplete healing technique, but it was meant for both as a practice method and internal healing. I decided to pay attention to it after getting to the main post.

Then I closed my eyes and checked my body. I couldn’t see through my own strength. I might have to visit the puppet hall again.

A few minutes later,

I exited the essence chamber and checked the time. It was already close to midnight. It had been more than two months since I started training to become a Half-Step Red Mark Warrior.

If not for the resources provided by the administration office, it would have easily taken two more months. I knew it was because most of them wanted me to enter the main post.
