Celestial Bloodline-Novel

Chapter 192 How much more time?

The dimly lit room door was closed as Oliver and the students stood in front of it with serious expressions. They were holding weapons, ready to kill any enemy who dared to enter inside.

Alec looked at the lance present in his hand with a dissatisfied expression.

'I miss my sword. I wonder where these jerks placed our storage rings?'

Not just him, almost everyone was sad at the loss of their precious storage rings that's why they looked around every corner of this room but didn't find even a single clue.

With a sigh, Alec shook his head. He gazed at the system expecting some help only to become disappointed.

'After we leave I will ask the Vice Principal to help me find my sword. I can't let it go it's too precious.'

In a corner behind the U-shaped container, Mia and Reo one of the grey-haired twins were standing while observing Kyle who was making symbols on the platform.

Bia's eyes were half opened as she gazed at Kyle while sitting on Mia's hands. She was lightheaded due to the injuries but now she was able to see the situation more clearly while occasionally moving her feathers.

Kyle's figure moved on the platform as he used a broken glass shard to carve the symbols on the ground because he didn't have any other thing available.

'Ugh, it's so time-consuming. I need to advance my Array skills so I can draw Array symbols just by using mana. It's too uncomfortable to carve the ground with this piece of glass.'

He grumbled inwardly as he saw the many symbols. Time trickled by as he moved around the platform, his vision turned hazy for a second but Kyle bit his tongue to stay conscious.

Alec looked at the door and gazed back at Kyle.

"Kyle, how much more time?"

He said with a hesitant voice because he could hear faint footsteps outside the door. Professor Oliver tensed up as well and gestured for the kids to stand behind him.

Kyle didn't pause in his actions as he dragged the glass shard on the platform.

"Just four more minutes."

Meanwhile, a few meters away from the room Kyle and the others were currently present.

Larry stomped his foot with anger as he glared at the ten men standing behind him. His mask was nowhere to be seen and his condition was disheveled because he had just been beaten up by one of his superiors.

"Damn it! Just where the fuck did they disappear?"

"There are only 5 floors in this building? Where can they go if not around these floors?"

He cursed and kicked a nearby man with anger. As he was taking out his anger another man dressed in formal clothes appeared behind the group of people.

"Larry stop lashing out. Ziner checked the exit passages and didn't find them. He and the other (A)-Ranks are currently outside looking around the forest madly. We need to check each floor thoroughly."

Larry glanced at the cyan-colored-haired man who just appeared out of nowhere.

"Aoky, you said the dead body disappeared from your room? Don't tell it's that dead body who did all this!"

"If only you stopped playing with those creepy bodies and kept an eye on your surroundings nothing like this would have happened!"

Aoky snorted and looked at him with a snicker.

"Shut up. It's not my fault. You and Bastian were the ones in charge of those kids from the Royal Academy. I just want to applaud for the fact that you were tricked by a single kid."

"We are both dead if we didn't find those kids. Ziner is angry enough to explode any time."

He massaged his temples and licked his dry lips.

"I am going to pack my stuff and run away if we can't find the kids on the last two floors. Who knows what would happen if those kids somehow found a secure place outside and contacted the Academy."

Larry paled when he heard the consequences of their actions. It was good as long as they didn't get caught but now the only thing they could do was to flee for their life. He kicked a nearby wall with anger.

A tremble shook the wall and the row of wooden boxes stacked a few meters away came crashing down with loud sounds.

Larry clicked his tongue when he saw the boxes but his eyes narrowed into a slit when he saw the two dark unconscious figures lying behind the boxes.

"The fuck."

He dashed and threw away the boxes and looked at the figures. A vein bulged on his forehead. After he got beaten up by the superior he called almost every guard but a lot of low-rank guards did not answer his calls. So this was a reason, they were all dead.

Larry's bloodshot eyes gazed at the dead bodies as he looked around the narrow floor filled with rooms.

"They are still here! Check every room on this floor! Hurry up!"

The guards standing behind him dashed forward and started opening door after door.

Aoky looked at the dead bodies with a serious expression.

"What a waste of materials."

Larry glared at him.

"Shut up! We are fucking standing at death door and you want to play with dead bodies?"

Aoky shook his head with disdain.

"Did you lose your brain after getting kicked? If they are really inside the building there's no way they can run away."

Larry calmed down and nodded while carefully folding his sleeves. There was no way the captives could run away from this floor because except for some experiment tools nothing precious was available here.

He walked around the floor when a muffled cry echoed in his ears. With wide eyes, he gazed at the largest door present in the middle.

Two of the guards rushed to the room with their weapons but they were attacked with a dangerous wind attack.

"They are hiding inside the boss room?"

Larry looked at the person standing beside and both of them rushed toward the room.
