Chapter 1652: Important Meeting

United City (Tier-3 Sub Post)

I took a cab and returned to my residence. I was sure my strength had been exposed now. The news would spread like wildfire.

Now everyone in the city would know. But I wasn’t worried, since they had stopped me from taking part in the battles.

I wanted to leave the city and enter the main post as soon as possible. Maybe I should start aiming to fight against the Quasi-God Powerhouse.

Next, I took a bath. The bath lasted for 20 minutes. After coming out of the bath, I put on comfortable clothes and lay down on the sofa.

Meanwhile,

In the council hall, the council elders began to arrive one by one. They had received confirmation that Zack Lockwood entered the Half-Step Red Mark Stage.

Now, they could send him to the Tier-3 Main Post.

Elder Rowena was there. She was among the first to arrive. She was finding it hard to believe.

When she first heard the news, she had waited for confirmation like the others. Now, they had received the latest report that Zack Lockwood had cleared Hell Mode in 15 minutes.

More than 50 Red Mark Warriors had witnessed Zack Lockwood setting a record. It was enough confirmation.

Rowena was quiet. She hadn’t expected this day to come so quickly. She had thought they would have to observe Zack Lockwood for a couple more months.

Yet they were here now. She looked at the others and saw relaxed expressions on everyone’s faces. She could tell that they couldn’t wait to send Zack Lockwood to the main post.

It didn’t take long for all the elders to assemble. Finally, it was time to start the discussion.

One by one, the elders voiced their opinions. They wanted Zack Lockwood to leave immediately. They should initiate contact with the main post.

Rowena was listening to everyone. This time, they were not even looking at her. She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Earlier, everyone had wanted to hear her opinion. Right now, Zack Lockwood was going to enter the main post. Even Quasi-God Jane had confirmed it.

It was only a matter of when Zack Lockwood would enter the main post. The meeting was all about speeding up the process.

In the meeting, the majority of the members decided to report to Quasi-God Jane.

An old elder from the Dark Shadow University said, "Before reporting, we should meet the young man in person. I want to see with my own eyes whether he is a Red Mark Warrior or not."

Hearing that, a few elders supported him. For some, it was still hard to believe. If they saw it with their own eyes, then they would be convinced.

At this time, Rowena found that no one was looking at her. Only the elders from the Red Moon University were turning towards her.

She simply nodded to them. She was alright. The last thing she wanted was for these people to trouble him.

"Who should call him?" the old man asked.

Hearing that, everyone turned towards Elder Rowena.

Rowena revealed a bitter smile. These people had given out their own resources, so she really couldn’t blame them.

It was possible that Zack Lockwood had broken through because of their resources.

"Alright, I’ll send someone to bring him here," Rowena said.

Hearing that, the others said nothing.

Rowena called Marie then and there. She instructed her to visit Zack Lockwood’s residence and bring him to the council hall. It was urgent.

Marie understood the seriousness of the matter.

She agreed to visit right away.

In the meeting hall, everyone began to wait.

...

Residence

A few minutes later,

Marie arrived in front of Zack Lockwood’s room and made a direct call to him.

Buzz!

The next second, I heard the buzzing sound. It woke me up. My gaze fell on the device. I took the device and saw that someone was calling me.

The person was none other than Marie. I answered the call and learned that she was standing outside.

Next, I got off the sofa and went to the door.

Creak!

I opened the door. I saw Senior Marie outside.

I welcomed her inside. Marie was stunned for a second. She felt a sense of crisis. She saw the red aura around Zack Lockwood, but the red aura was faint.

She confirmed that Zack Lockwood was a Half-Step Red Mark Warrior right now.

She walked inside the room. Both of them came to the living area.

"Senior, is there anything important?" I asked her.

"Elder Rowena wants to see you right now. It’s urgent," Marie said.

Hearing that, my eyes flickered.

"I believe it must be related to my breakthrough," I said.

"I think so as well. Maybe they want to verify it themselves," Marie said.

"Alright, I’ll come. Give me ten minutes." After saying that, I went to my room.

A few minutes later,

I came outside wearing a fresh uniform. Next, we left the flat. After coming to the street, we took a cab to the council building.

10 minutes later,

We arrived in front of the council building. Seeing the council building, I raised my eyebrows. It was my first time coming here.

Marie guided me inside the building. Then we took the elevator to reach the top floor. Once we got there, we left the elevator and walked up to the glass door.

We could see that people were inside the meeting hall.

"I’ll wait here. You can step inside," Marie said.

Hearing that, I nodded to her and opened the glass door to walk in. As I walked inside, I felt powerful gazes on me.

All of them were Red Mark Warriors, yet I felt nothing powerful.

Gasp!

A low exclamation rang out.

The council elders all saw Zack Lockwood. They immediately recognized him. Right now, everyone was looking at the light red aura surrounding Zack Lockwood.

Elder Rowena saw the red aura as well. She sighed inwardly. They were supposed to be happy to have such a genius warrior with them.

Yet they were forced to let him go.

The old man from the Dark Shadow University saw Zack Lockwood. He was dumbfounded. He had his confirmation now. He didn’t speak further.

The other doubters got confirmation as well.
