Chapter 134: Destiny Lady
"Ritual materials?" Professor Warren raised his brows as he invited him in, and turned around.
"What are the materials you need, Department Head?" He asked.
In the meantime, Charles pushed the door opened and spoke as he stepped in.
"I need a few drops of Twinkle Frog\'s saliva, rib bone of a salamander, 4 grams of Nether essence, seven types of undead bones, and a Demi-Lich\'s nail."
"Are you planning to do a summoning ritual?" Warren asked as he started to walk into the hall.
At that moment, Charles took three steps forward and suddenly moved his right hand towards Warren\'s neck.
Simultaneously, a sharp well-concealed dagger appeared in his hand.
"Wha-?"
Before Warren could understand the situation, Charles pressed the dagger against his neck and slit his throat.
A neat cut appeared on his throat!
In the meantime, Professor Warren became completely terrified inside as he gripped his own neck in shock and felt suffocated!
He tried to say something while stumbling forward but couldn\'t!
He gasped for breath and soon knelt on the ground.
Blood gushed out from his neck and painted the white floor in seconds.
In seconds, he couldn\'t maintain his balance and fell on the floor.
Warren stared at Chares with hate and anger while his body started to twitch uncontrollably.
In few seconds, his body stopped twitching and went motionless!
[Target Eliminated! 1,410 Exp points obtained!]
Meanwhile, Charles took a detour and started walking deep into the hall. After few seconds, he soon appeared in front of a separate section and saw few scarlet-colored hearts were sealed in some preservative bottles.
\'This should be my target.\' Nodding his head, Charles took a few preserved hearts and stored them inside his space ring.
After that, he scanned the surroundings and soon shook his head.
\'I don\'t have enough time to steal all these materials. I should follow my plan.\' Suppressing his greed, Charles turned around and started walking towards Warren\'s body.
Then, he squatted down a little, picked his space ring, and started walking towards the metal gate.
After that, he opened it with both hands and walked out of the storage hall.
Charles nodded his head, took a few steps forward, and soon stopped as he suddenly felt an eerie gaze from his right side.
It was the same eerie gaze he felt when he came here last time!
A mischievous smile appeared on Charles\'s face as he turned his gaze towards the eye-symbol engraved door and started walking towards it.
\'That eerie gaze is giving me an uncomfortable feeling.\' He stopped in front of the locked gate and soon cast his [Hand of Mystery] skill.
A moment later, invisible strings came out from his hand and started moving deep into the metal gate.
Within ten seconds, a click sound echoed in the hall.
The next instant, the metal door opened on its own with a loud screech.
Inside, Charles saw a giant mountain of gold coins and got stunned inside.
\'I did expect that some gold coins would be stored inside but this is way beyond my imagination. There must be more than a million gold coins stored in this hall!\' He inhaled deeply and then started walking towards the mountain of gold coins.
Following that, he placed his hand on those gold coins and activated his [Hand of Mystery] skill.
At that moment, he also thought of stealing those coins for his own purpose.
In a blink, tens of invisible webs came out from his hand and started spreading all over the gold mountain like a web.
Whenever those invisible strings touch the gold coins, the coins, along with the nearby gold coins, also began to vibrate for a second and turned into ashes!
\'As I expected, this Amber Curse can indeed influence the reality through one\'s thought.\'
Charles focused his full attention on the skill for the next five minutes and finally withdrew his hand.
Unlike before, the mountain of gold coins was nowhere to be seen!
Instead, there were only gray ashes remained on the floor!
"Hmm, it\'s time for the finale." Charles turned around, took out the Starfall Codex Magic Book, and started to flip the pages.
Soon, Charles stopped at the final page and started to chant in Runal Language.
…
In the meantime, a blonde-haired man arrived in front of the Tower of Elements and started walking into it.
He was none other than Red Prince!
He soon reached the first layer and saw hundreds of mages were roaming here and there.
"This hall looks a mess." He muttered slowly and then took out the black-covered book from his space ring.
After that, he closed his eyes for a second and then opened them.
A rare smile appeared on his face.
"I got you now, Charles." Red Prince held the book in his right hand and started walking towards the left side corridor.
He walked past many classrooms, halls and soon appeared in front of the straight staircase. He then took a step forward and started moving upstairs.
Three minutes later, he finally reached the fifth floor and started walking towards the right-side corridor.
After another minute of walking, he arrived in front of the eye-symbol engraved door and soon furrowed his brows.
He didn\'t barge into the hall, though. Instead, he once again opened the black-covered book and closed his eyes for a moment.
Then, he opened his eyes, let out a deep sigh, and opened the iron door.
After that, he walked inside and soon got confused as he saw only grey ashes spread all over the large hall!
\'Where is he?\' He started walking towards the center of the hall, squatted down, and touched the ashes in puzzlement.
\'Why there are so many ashes inside?\' He narrowed his eyes for a moment and was about to open the black-covered book to check for variations but stopped.
At that moment, he sensed a presence at the entrance and turned around in surprise.
He soon saw a deep-blue-haired man standing in front of the metal gate and grinned.
"We finally met, Charles." A cold voice came out from Red Prince\'s mouth.
In the meantime, Charles curled his lips upward, used the [Hand of Mystery] skill, locked the metal door from inside, and focused his attention on the unique contract mark in his Inner World.
\'Release the final mimic, Mr. Runeth.\' He spoke in his mind.
…
At the exact moment,
Seventh Layer, Museum Hall, Section 49.
The red gem, hidden in the cubic glass, suddenly started to vibrate and soon turned into a disk-shaped metal plate.
A moment later, multiple alarm bells started to ring everywhere!
…
Outside the Tower of Elements,
A black-haired woman in her late twenties stood at the entrance of Mystics\' Borough and was sending out multiple orders to mages, Tower Guards, and the elite Royal Guards.
She was one of the four Tower Masters, Destiny Lady!
Her raging scarlet eyes scanned the Fate strings from time to time like a machine and began to search for the origin of these variations.
As she was about to give another command to the nearby mage, her eyes widened all of a sudden!
She instantly turned around and stared at the eighth floor in shock.
\'Someone stole the Divine Blood droplet!\' She instantly realized that this whole commotion was a distraction and gritted her teeth in anger.
"Fate Swift." She spoke in a sharp voice and then disappeared from there.
A moment later, she appeared in front of the cubic glass, placed in Section 49, Museum Hall.
Her long black hair fluttered on its own as she focused her gaze on the disk, placed inside the cubic glass, and soon squinted her eyes.
She soon read the few words written on the metal disk.
"If you want the Divine Blood, come to Zephine\'s locker in Fifth Layer.
-By Red Prince."
"HEATHEN!" The surrounding artifacts and the nearby areas suddenly started to freeze as she shouted in a cold voice.
She instantly linked her mind with the Tower Spirit and gave out an order in a chilling tone.
"Gen, Lock the whole Tower. Nobody should go out or get in for the next few hours. No, use the Rank-5 Dimension Lock spell and seal the Tower."
Saying so, she punched the cubic glass, took the metal disk, and muttered in a cold tone.
"Fate Swift."
