Furball also had an ability?
Chapter 381: Furball Has an ability?
This Sacred Warrior Academy was built in the wilderness. The brown mountain peak was over a thousand meters tall, and it looked like a giant boulder that had been hollowed out. In the center of the boulder was a basin with a diameter of one hundred kilometers. Anyone who passed by this place could not help but sigh in admiration at the uncanny workmanship of nature.
A large glass dome was built at the peak of the mountain, covering the entire basin. There was only one entrance, and there was only one path that led through the wilderness to the entrance.
Xia Fei was about thirty kilometers away from the entrance. The terrain here was flat, and he could see everything within a hundred kilometers. The ground was covered in gravel, and some stubborn camel grass grew in the cracks between the gravel. Of course, most of all, there were insects wandering between the cracks.
In truth, these insects could not be considered real insectoids. Real insectoids were much larger, like magnified versions of insects. The closer they looked to humans, the higher their level of evolution and status among the insectoids.
The entrance to the Sacred Warrior Academy was a tunnel, and there were soldiers on both sides, armed with live ammunition. The security was tight.
These soldiers were not only there to prevent anyone from sneaking in, but also to prevent students who could not stand the boring life of training and ran off to indulge in debauchery. The insectoid warrior academy was not as relaxed as the human academy. They were under a round-the-clock military-style management, and the slightest dissatisfaction would result in the instructor's beating, scolding, and scolding. A light punishment could be a day without food, and a heavy punishment could even result in a crippling.
The insectoid society was very stratified, and those who could enter the Sacred Warrior Academy were all children of the privileged class. These youths, who usually acted like tyrants, had never experienced such bitterness before, so there were often people who wanted to desert, and the soldiers at the entrance were there to prevent such a thing from happening.
With Xia Fei's speed, it was not difficult for him to get past the cordon and enter, but he had no way of knowing what was going on in the tunnel. If there were electronic sensors, no matter how fast Xia Fei moved, he would still be detected by the sensors, thereby alerting the enemy.
After some thought, Xia Fei decided to enter through the large transparent ceiling. Such a large transparent ceiling would affect the light if it was not cleaned regularly, so there had to be other entrances near the ceiling.
* Whoosh! *
Moving as fast as lightning, Xia Fei crouched down and arrived at the back of the mountain. Why would he care about the distance of a hundred kilometers when his top speed was close to ten thousand meters per second? It would only take him less than half a minute.
What Xia Fei did not expect was that there was a small insectoid spaceship parked behind the mountain. It looked like it could hold a dozen or so people, and the pilot was an ant that had yet to fully evolve. At this moment, he was pacing around the spaceship as if waiting for something.
Not long after, a rope was thrown down from the mountain, and seven or eight students wearing school uniforms slid down the mountain using the rope.
After looking around nervously, these students quickly boarded the small flying ship and left. Each of them seemed very excited.
Xia Fei came to a sudden realization. It turned out that this was the insectoid version of having policies from above and countermeasures from below. Being locked in this prison-like school, these students would naturally think of ways to escape and have fun, which was why they could use the loopholes in the mountains to break out of their cocoons and have fun somewhere else.
The pursuit of freedom was indeed the nature of all living things, and there was no exception to it, be it humans or insectoids.
This rope had actually helped Xia Fei point out his path. He walked up to it and tugged on it. The rope was made of linen and was very sturdy. There were some stains on its surface, and it looked like it had been used for a very long time, which meant that there had always been people using this rope to travel between the school and the wilderness.
Patting Furball on his shoulder, Xia Fei grabbed the rope with both hands, and his two legs rapidly moved forward. In just a few seconds, he had climbed up the thousand-meter mountain peak.
The night was somewhat gloomy, and there were no stars or moon in the sky. There was only the howling of the mountain wind.
Standing at the top of the mountain, one could clearly see the scenery of the basin. There were plenty of buildings arranged in a picturesque manner, with training grounds, dormitories, training grounds, swimming pools, and other luxurious facilities. In the eyes of the insectoids, who were not too particular about things, this school was already a little too particular about things.
The entrance where the employees cleaned was just a few dozen meters away, and behind a narrow door was a spiral staircase.
Suddenly, Xia Fei keenly sensed footsteps coming from the staircase. He hurriedly hid behind a large boulder, one hand patting Furball, wary that the fellow would make any sudden movements and alert the enemy. Perhaps it was because he had been eating too well recently, but Furball had been burping a lot lately.
"Vice-dean Jin, there were seven cadets who escaped just now. I've memorized their names."
"Oh, punish them with a hundred lashes tomorrow, and then lock them up for three days. They'll only be given water and no food. Let's see if they still dare to break the rules next time."
"Yes, yes. I've memorized them all. Seriously, you said that these new cadets are really something. Our Tanini Sacred Warrior Academy can't even get in even if they wanted to, yet these cadets are desperately trying to get out. Don't they know how to use their brains to figure out how such an obvious loophole could exist? "
"Consider it a lesson for them. It's the same every year when new cadets arrive, so there's nothing strange about it. There shouldn't be any cadets trying to escape at this time. Close this door."
Only then did Xia Fei understand that the loophole on the summit had been specially arranged by the academy to test the cadets' ability to resist temptation.
Of the two Zergs who spoke, one was bent over and had a long tail behind him, while the other was much more evolved. Other than the fact that he had no hair on his head and a layer of golden scales, he was very similar to a human in every other aspect.
Xia Fei recalled that the one with the golden scales was Vice-dean Jin Myeh. He had the cultivation of a human Star River rank, and his martial prowess was second only to Dean Todd. He was a very powerful insectoid warrior.
Xia Fei had a thought. It was dark and windy on the summit. If he could capture Jin Myeh here, he could interrogate him about the location of the Blood Demon Claw!
Using telepathy to tell Furball not to act rashly, Xia Fei bent down and used the cover of the night to quietly approach Jin Myeh's position. Furball quietly stayed behind Xia Fei. His body was covered in a layer of fine silver fur that glistened under the light, making it very easy to detect. Fortunately, Furball could attach itself to anything, so Xia Fei did not have to worry about it falling off his back.
Xia Fei was like a hungry wolf preparing to ambush its prey in the darkness, ready to strike at any moment.
Jin Myeh turned around and yawned, preparing to leave with the teacher. It was already late at night, and the two of them were rather tired.
Suddenly! Xia Fei charged out of the shadows!
The ancient mystical armament Butterfly Serpent and his right arm's Celestial Moon activated at the same time! Butterfly Serpent went to bind Jin Myeh while Celestial Moon swept across the back of the teacher's head.
* Swoosh! *
Celestial Moon swept across the back of the teacher's head with incredible speed, not even drawing blood. His body tilted to the side, and he instantly lost all signs of life.
On the other side, Butterfly Serpent had Jin Myeh firmly tied up like a snake, a cold saber pressed against his neck.
All of this had been completed in less than a second. High-level speed ability users had a unique advantage when launching sneak attacks. This was something that no other ability could compare to.
Jin Myeh grimaced. He swallowed and sternly asked, "Who are you? What do you want? "
Xia Fei coldly replied, "Who I am is none of your business. Tell me where the Blood Demon Claw is."
Jin Myeh was startled. "I don't know what you're talking about."
He was much taller than Xia Fei, and Xia Fei had to stand on his tiptoes in order to press the saber against his neck. This made Xia Fei very uncomfortable.
He dragged Jin Myeh back a few steps and pressed down on his shoulder. At the same time, he kicked Jin Myeh's knee from behind.
* Crack! *
Jin Myeh knelt on the ground. From the sound of it, it seemed like his knee had been fractured.
Jin Myeh grunted, beads of sweat the size of soybeans dripping down his forehead, and he grimaced in pain.
Lightly flicking his saber upward, Xia Feng had Jin Myeh raise his head and coldly stare at him.
"I'm not used to asking twice. Either tell me where the Blood Demon Claw is hidden, or die!"
Suddenly!
The moment Xia Fei said this, his entire body went stiff! It was as if he had been petrified!
'What's going on?!' What's going on here?! 'Xia Fei mentally roared.
Alas, no matter how hard he tried, he could not get his body to move. His brain was clearly working, but his body was not listening. Xia Fei suddenly thought of the immobilizing technique from xianxia novels. It was said that a single use of this technique could stop an opponent's movements. However, Xia Fei was well aware that this was not an immobilizing technique but a special ability!
Several years ago, when Xia Fei entered the ancient ruins for the first time, he had encountered a strange insectoid. Though it had yet to fully evolve, it possessed miraculous speed, almost comparable to Xia Fei's speed ability. Back then, Xia Fei had suspected that it was an insectoid ability user, and this sudden encounter made Xia Fei recall it once more!
"This insect is a control-type ability user! There's an energy coming from its body that's connected to your body and locked onto your nervous system! " Phantom hastily said. As he was a ghost, he was extremely sensitive to energy, and he very quickly discovered the reason behind this.
Xia Fei silently groaned. There were many types of control-type ability users. Some could use sound to control the movements of others, some could use ocular techniques to control the thoughts of others, but Jin Myeh's ability was the most insidious and precise control! Using energy to control the nervous system!
It was common knowledge that once the nervous system was damaged, a human would be rendered unable to move, and Jin Myeh possessed this neurological control ability!
In truth, it was not that Xia Fei did not have the strength, but that the signals in his brain could not be transmitted through the nervous system! All of them had been blocked by Jin Myeh!
Jin Myeh coldly chuckled as he struggled to his feet. His left leg had been fractured, and only his right leg was barely able to support him.
"Despicable human, see if I don't bite you to death!" Jin Myeh furiously roared. His body was firmly bound by the Butterfly Serpent, and in his rage, he opened his mouth to bite Xia Fei like a wild beast!
The teeth of the insectoids were abnormally sharp, and Jin Myeh was no exception. He opened his mouth to bite at Xia Fei's weakest point!
Because Xia Fei's nervous system was blocked, he could not react at all. The situation was dire!
Suddenly!
A silver bolt of lightning leaped onto Xia Fei's shoulder. It was Furball!
He and Xia Fei had a life-and-death contract, so Jin Myeh's attack had infuriated Furball!
* Bang! *
Furball spat out a silver meteor from his mouth, traveling at incredible speed! Jin Myeh was tightly bound by the Butterfly Serpent, so he had no time to react!
When this small meteor struck Jin Myeh's body, Jin Myeh vanished into thin air! He turned into an invisible body of energy that drifted through the air!
Silence. Only the low cries of insects could be heard in the wilderness. No one had expected Furball to kill so easily. What did it mean to kill without leaving a trace? This was it!
