Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 264 The Dark League Member Carlos



Red City,

The death of the dark league old man was confirmed by the head of the branch. Failure of the mission caused the red city branch to lose its face. Now their favorability and the mission reward will be reduced.

Unless they can complete the mission again without any failure. After receiving the direction from the headquarter, the red city head branch decided to convene another meeting without any delay.

Because the death of the old man reminded them that someone strong must be protecting the target. So this time they have to act more cautiously.

While the rest of the city is discussing the Little StarGate School. The red city’s branch head held the meeting at midnight.

Underground chamber,

This time everyone presents physically except the leader. He used his projection form. Seven people were seated in a circular manner leaving one empty seat.

The beautiful cold woman who had confronted the old man last time looked at the seat coldly. Lastly she had a feeling that the old man might suffer.

But the results made her stunned. The old man didn’t return. She felt glad that she didn’t rush up to accept the mission. If someone can kill that old man then the enemy might be a level-6 wizard.

Which is way beyond her strength. Only people from the capital can do the mission. She said everything in her heart. She can’t afford to say it out loud.

Beside the empty seat, there is another person with the black mercenary dress seated. He is none other than the same person who left the border town earlier to do his task.

Right now his eyes gleamed with a twinkle. He already made up his mind to accept the mission. But he doesn’t know what the head is up to?

The branch head’s face was covered with smog. It is not easy for people to see through the smog.

For a moment there was silence. The members knew something bad might have happened. Because failure of the mission always comes up with a cruel penalty.

But this time the person who had accepted the mission also died. So people can’t wait to hear the head’s statement. π—»π—Όπ˜ƒπžπ₯.

Finally, there is a movement in projection.

The branch head looked at everyone with a gloomy expression. He wants to vent his anger on others. But he can’t do it. Because he was the one who accepted the old man’s mission request.

So he was also part of the failure. But this time the instructions from the headquarters are clear. No matter what they want the kid named Vincent Carey dead.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, he opened his mouth to say, “The headquarters wants the target to be killed as soon as possible.”

“Failure is not acceptable.”

Hearing that seven members showed myriad expressions.

The beautiful women remained silent. Her instinct is clear this time. She will die if she decides to do this mission. So she waited for other members to accept the mission.

At this time, an obese middle-aged man said in a solemn tone, “Head, the target must have level -6 as a guardian. It’s very difficult for the level-5 wizard to leave unscathed.”

He didn’t want to deny the difficulty of the mission. Even the veteran old man was killed, so what are they?

Hearing the words from the obese middle ages man some of the members supported his words. This mission is not doable unless the head decides to go there in person. This was the thought in members’ minds.

There is a slight movement in protection. But members couldn’t see their reactions.

The branch head is quite clear. He replied, “It’s impossible to dispatch a level-6 wizard to this barren city. It will attract a lot of attention. Especially the headquarter doesn’t want to alert the enemy.”

When he finished his words, the atmosphere quieted down. The obese old man also closed his mouth. The headquarters is asking too much of them.

There is a watershed that exists between level 5 and level -6. Even if they teamed up to attack the level-6 wizard, they can still be defeated by the level-6 wizard.

Seeing the silence the branch head’s expression turned gloomy. He understands the difficulty of the matter. So he came up with one solution.

“Alright, first we need to confirm the presence of the Guardian. Which is yet to be confirmed.”

“So who will do the investigation?”

The branch head said in a solemn tone. To raise their confidence. He came up with a primary task. If the old man was killed by some other level-5 wizard.

Then the difficulty of the mission will be reduced drastically. For that, the identity of the target’s guardian needs to be confirmed.

When he uttered his words, one person raised his hand to accept the task. Immediately everyone’s gaze fell on the person.

He is none other than a person dressed in mercenary attire.

The branch head sighed in relief. He instructed, “Carlos, you have one day to identify the person. So you can leave now.”

The person who was dressed in mercenary attire nodded in response. He didn’t ask for anything back and got up from his seat to leave right away.

A quick glint flashed in beautiful women’s eyes. Surprisingly, the branch head came up with a preliminary task to reduce the tension. She knitted her eyebrows in displeasure.

“Rest of you guys need to be ready. Once the identity of the guardian is confirmed as level-5 wizard, I will dispatch a few of them as a team to complete the mission,” The branch head said.

This time everyone agreed without much protest.

With that, the meeting also came to an end.

“I will hold another meeting after Carlos’s arrival,” Saying that, the projection of the branch head disappeared.

Seeing that everyone sighed in relief.

At this time the obese old man commented, “You guys, do you think that old man was incapable of escaping from the level-5 wizard?”

His words poured cold water on everyone’s head. Everyone knew the cunning nature of the old man. Suddenly the obese man’s words brought them a realization.

But it was too late to discuss anything. The head was already clear in his words. A slender-looking man chuckled and said, “Why are you so pessimistic?”

“Are you afraid that Carlos might be rewarded for the preliminary task?”

The obese man snorted immediately.

On the other hand, the beautiful women left the underground chamber. She has a bad premonition that their red city branch will face some turmoil.

Then she silently disappears from this place.

When everyone left the place. Carlos appeared in the vicinity. After making sure there was no scheme played by the members, he left hurriedly.

It was quite common for members to backstab each other. Unless it is proven with some evidence the branch head won’t take action. That’s why after accepting the preliminary task he decided to ensure his safety.

After leaving the underground chamber. Carlos disguised himself as a veteran hunter and boarded the train. He also controlled his mana breath to level-3 rank.

Because a veteran hunter with a level-3 rank is quite common in the city. It won’t attract any attention to him.

He plans to reach Little Star Gate High School by early morning. He is already aware of the year-end competition. Some time ago, he checked the online source.

Tomorrow, that school might be overcrowded. Many mage families will high-rank wizards to protect their descendants in secret. He needs to be careful not to expose himself.

Time passed in a blink of an eye.

Early morning,

Carlos walked out of the train station. He stayed near the inn to freshen up.

Two hours later,

He left the inn and walked towards the school.

On the way he sees many people going in the same direction. Young and old of every age group mixed in the crowd.

Soon Carlos realized something. These people were supporters of the competition. There is still some time left before the competition. But people decided to come here a few hours early.

Unlike the sly old man, Carlos is calculative. He won’t do anything unless he is sure of himself.

Seeing the crowd, he decided to mingle and gather some information.

“Hey, I made a bet on the ice queen to win.”

“Guess what, I used 10000 alliance points on a bet.”

Some nearby exclaimed in surprise.

“Another local rich fan of hers.”

“Ha…Ha…Ha…”

Some people burst into laughter. But the atmosphere is bright and joyful. Soon Carlos passed through the crowd and arrived in front of the school gate.

He saw big screens placed outside to screen the competition live. No wonder, people gathered in numbers.

The main reason he decided to come here instead of choosing the target’s house. Does he want to check the security around the school?

He wants to see whether any level-5 wizard was hired by the school management. Carlos concealed his aura and began to scan around the school.

He doesn’t want to release level-5 mana breath. Otherwise, it will easily alert the authorities here.

After walking around for a few more minutes, Carlos found something.

He was a level-4 wizard who stepped outside to control the crowd. But apart from him, Carlos didn’t find any level-5 aura. Which made him sigh in relief.
