Blackboard City
The former Blackboard City had become more and more desolate and noisy. The bustling streets and alleys were littered with trash and newspaper shreds. Some stray dogs and cats were still looking for food scraps in the trash cans, whining from time to time.
Homeless people and homeless children who had never been here before were squatting and wandering in the depths of the alleys, fighting with the stray dogs for food.
Dilapidated walls and buildings, dark and dirty streets with green belts. Occasionally, angry curses could be heard from the passing cars.
Garon walked slowly in the capital city of the Blackboard Region. From the teleportation point, he did not waste any time and went straight to the capital city. Fila, the Seventh Divine Wind General, and the Biochemist Bamente must have left this place.
Coming here, Garon's only wish was to see the current Blackboard Academy and see his former teachers.
He walked slowly along the streets.
"Hehe … Kid, you have to collect protection fees from outsiders who pass through this territory … Do you know the rules?" A few thugs walked out from the alleys and blocked in front of Garon. They had mocking and malicious smiles on their faces.
The few passers-by around them also sped up and ran away, pretending that they did not see them at all.
Garon was dressed in black clothes made of high-quality materials. He looked no different from a rich young master who had gone out for a stroll. He had a gentle smile on his face, but it gave people a feeling of hypocrisy.
He recalled that someone once told him that if he did not know how to treat the people around him well, then he should keep smiling. This way, he could always let the people who truly cared about him know that he was doing well and did not need to worry …
"Protection fees?" Garon looked at the three thugs in front of him. "Since when did Blackboard City have such things?"
Looking at the calm and composed Garon, they felt that something was wrong. The thugs seemed to feel that something was wrong.
"Our boss is …" Bam!
With a dull sound, the three thugs flew out at the same time and crashed into the wall on the side. The bones in their bodies cracked and cracked. They did not even have the time to scream before their lives were uncertain. Blood slowly flowed down the three of them, forming a small puddle on the ground.
Garon did not even raise his hand. This was only one percent of the Double Fist Pressure. The Double Fist Pressure did not increase any strength, but it could evenly distribute the fist force to the surrounding vacuum, instantly erupting indiscriminately in all directions.
It wasn't just the strength of a fist.
"Is it still too heavy?" Garon frowned slightly. Originally, he wanted to leave him alive, but he did not expect that even 1% of the fist pressure would be too heavy …
Bang!
The sound of windows closing could be heard from the upper floor.
The surroundings suddenly became even emptier, and the entire street became even more desolate. A few cars sped past as if they were fleeing for their lives.
Garon put his hands in his pockets and looked at the city that had become more and more desolate because of the war. If even this place had become like this, there was no need to talk about other places.
"Let's go take a look at Celine's residence first …"
As soon as he thought of it, Garen walked forward for a distance and stopped a taxi.
He got into the car and told the driver the name of Celine's house.
"Oh, there … It's the original villa area of the academy." The driver was a middle-aged man with a fierce face. He had a crew cut, and there was a knife-shaped black leather case on the side of his head. He glanced at Garon from the rearview mirror.
"Sir, are you a student of the academy?" He started the car and asked. "You don't look like an ordinary person."
"How are things over there now?" Garon smiled and asked.
"It's alright. In the recent years of war, many people have died. The academy has urgently recruited many new students, but it has become a little messy," the driver answered casually. "That place is now a place where even the average hoodlum wouldn't dare to go. Everyone there is a powerhouse with Willpower. If an ordinary person goes there, they're just looking for trouble. I used to be there too, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye … "
The driver began to talk non-stop. He looked fierce, but in reality, he was a chatterbox. After a long time, he could not get to the main point, and directly began to talk about his glorious days.
Garon was not impatient. He just sat in his seat and looked out the window quietly.
It was a pity that this once bustling city had become so dilapidated in just a few years.
Along the way, Garon finally arrived at the villa area near the Blackboard Academy while the driver was talking.
He got out of the car and used the black card that he had prepared to pay the bill. The black card was something that he had snatched from a rich man. The order here was extremely chaotic. Now, the number of soldiers was far from enough, let alone the number of policemen. The social order could only be maintained at a basic level.
He took a familiar turn into a small path and soon saw Celine's villa. It was one of the rows of small white villas.
This place was empty. There were not many people living here. It was the afternoon, and the sky was covered with dark clouds. Snowflakes were falling, and the light was dim. However, this place was still deathly silent and cold. Only a villa far away could be seen with a light on.
Garon walked along the road in the small district. Other than the broken street lights, he could not see anyone else. The entire district had become a ghost town.
He walked to the entrance of Celine's villa. The ground was covered in a thick layer of dust. The villa's automatic defense system had also stopped monitoring and defense. The entire villa was dark and abnormally quiet.
He reached out his hand and shook it lightly. Suddenly, the door creaked open and Garon walked in slowly.
The huge living room was pitch black. Only a set of ancient knight armor made of metal was placed in the middle of the room, reflecting a faint silver light.
The air was filled with a thick layer of dust.
"As expected, there's no one here …" Garon sighed. With a thought, a gust of cold wind swept through the entire villa. In an instant, all the dust inside was blown away and gathered in a corner.
The entire villa suddenly became much cleaner.
After walking around the villa, Garon went to the basement. He looked at the place where he and Celine used to practice. It was also filled with dust. Looking at the familiar furnishings, he realized that she had completely left. Thinking about how he had not contacted Celine for a long time, he guessed that she had completely given up on this house.
Many years ago, Celine had sent back news that Nonosiva's parents and sister had completely settled down in the most peaceful center, the Freshwater Galaxy. Celine herself had also followed her teacher to the Freshwater Galaxy. She could only send back news once in a while because the distance was too far. Now that the long-distance Stargate was completely sealed, there was no way for her to know the situation on the other side.
"Freshwater Galaxy, I wonder how they're doing …" Garon thought of Baylon again. This brother or sister who was destined to become the King Star. According to history, she might be returning from the Four Ring Alliance soon.
When they returned, there would be a huge energy tide here. This grand occasion was the perfect opportunity for him to devour the energy. Garon returned at this crucial time for this reason. It was not just for revenge.
After walking around Celine's basement, the familiar environment was still there, but the people were no longer there. He could not escape from this whirlpool.
"If I didn't have the relationship with Red Moon and Baylon, perhaps becoming a pilot would be a good way to avoid this. Unfortunately … there aren't so many ifs in the world. Once I'm noticed by the White King, I'll definitely be the first person he'll use to threaten me."
Garon walked out of the villa. He could not calm down after all.
Walking along the path of the villa area, he finally saw a few people. Three men and a woman. The three men were dragging a girl into the darkness. They were laughing wantonly, mixed with the girl's frightened cries. Obviously, it was not a good thing. As expected, the trouble that the driver mentioned was not ordinary. This was because one of the three men had Willpower fluctuations.
"Is the impact of the war really so great?"
Garon sighed.
"Even this city has decayed to this extent in just a few years …"
His voice reached the ears of the four people. It was calm, as if what was happening in front of him was not important. It was as if he was watching a movie without any ripples.
"Who's there!?" The man who was dragging the girl shouted loudly. He glared at Garon with warning.
"Mind your own business, or else …" He did not finish his sentence, but the threat behind it was obvious.
"Help! Help me. " The girl seemed to have seen hope. She cried loudly for help. "As long as you save me, I can give you money, Universal Units! One hundred thousand, one million! I beg you! Save me … "
Slap!
The man who spoke gave her a tight slap.
"B * tch, when I pursued you, you were unwilling. You humiliated me and looked down on me. How about now? Hehe! "
He grabbed the girl's hair.
"Aren't you noble? Aren't you a goddess? Why are you crying like this now? Didn't you look down on me? Ah! Now you know how to ask for help? "
The man laughed evilly.
"Let go of Nolan!" Suddenly, a calm but slightly trembling female voice rang from the darkness not far away.
A girl wearing a white tunic dress with black stockings slowly walked out of the darkness. She was holding a pair of high heels in her hand. Her black hair was in a neat ponytail, and her delicate and fair face gave off an elegant and cold temperament.
However, the girl seemed to be in an unusually sorry state at this moment. Her forehead was slightly sweaty and her breathing was slightly hurried. It was obvious that she had run here. Some parts of the black pantyhose on her legs were slightly damaged.
"Tesna!" The girl who was caught was immediately surprised. "Save me, save me quickly! This fellow is crazy! "
"Tesna, this is none of your business. You better stay out of this," the man warned her fiercely.
What responded to him was an elbow strike from the girl in the white dress as she ran up.
The lightning-like elbow struck the tall man who stepped forward to block the girl. It was the man with Willpower. It was obvious that he was the man's bodyguard.
"Axis of Rotation!"
Tesna's elbow strike was blocked. She straightened her arm abruptly and turned it into a hand knife. She took advantage of the momentum and slashed at the man's neck.
"Eh?" Garon glanced sideways slightly. This girl's fighting style had a faint shadow of his Twelve Flying Dragon Fist. When he first taught it to Celine, he did not restrict her from teaching this fist technique to others. However, he did not expect to meet someone who knew a little bit of this fist technique nearby.
