Chapter 184 - 184 Communication Line Restored
184 Communication Line Restored
Lucy was surprised. She looked at Kyle and then smiled brightly. “Got it. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything that will harm Kate.”
No way.
Kate has always been helping her to go through her most difficult times in the university, so she would make sure that she could help Kate now. Anyway, being able to become stronger is her priority.
She had been roaming alone in the wilderness, not being able to trust anyone because these people only wanted to take advantage of her. if not because she was of enhancement ability and could beat them up, she might have long become extremely miserable and unable to even live properly.
The world had become an extremely unsafe place to live.
But there was no other place that could be considered safe anymore.
Her reason to follow this group was mostly because she knew that they were strong and that her best friend was here. She wanted to get stronger faster so that she could truly protect herself.
She didn’t want to be put in embarrassing position ever again in her entire life.
It was vexing.
.....
“Good.” Kyle nodded and walked to the group again.
After hesitating for a bit, Lucy decided to come while following Kyle.
“She’s your student, right?” Lotte asked when she saw Lucy following behind Kyle. When they were in City D, that was how Kyle introduced them to Lucy when they first saw her.
“Yes.” Kyle glanced at Lucy. “She’ll be part of our team now.”
“Really?” Jake was surprised.
Dylan looked at Lucy and then nodded. “Nice to see you.”
“Our team is getting more and more complete.” Lotte giggled. “Let me reintroduced ourselves again. Lotte, wind and wood element. This is Jake, metal element. Dylan, water element. Little Kitty, space and healing element. Marc, earth element. Robby, metal element. Oh right, our professor Kyle, fire and lightning element.”
“I’m Lucy, enhancement element.” Lucy smiled.
There were only a total of 12 elements in total with the last 2 were usually unknown, so only 10 had been recognized so far.
Black is hallucination or shadow element, Chocolate or brown is wood element, red is fire element, orange is enhancement element, yellow is earth element, green is healing element, blue is water element, purple is lightning element, grey is metal element, white is wind element, transparent is space element, and transparent black is transformation element.
If one were to pay attention carefully, their team had each of every element. It meant that their formation could be made in accordance to the elements. Though, for some elements, two or more were wielded by the same person.
The formation still needed to be adjusted.
But having more people from different elements were definitely something to be celebrated. After all, it meant that they would be covered in various sides and could hold on from various different attack.
All that needed to be done was for them to practice their coordination and team work.
“Complete,” Dylan commented.
“Yeah, it’s very complete.” Lotte nodded in agreement.
Lucy smiled when the introduction was finished.
“In that case, when will we take new mission?”
“Next week.” Jake grimaced. “During this time, we’re tasked to use our elements to help rebuilding the city and then used the crystals to recover our energy.”
“That will stabilize your rapid increase of power through the gem.” Kyle glanced at Jake.
They were all advancing rapidly through the use of these gems. While advancing faster had its benefit, their control would be relatively poorer. They had to learn how to control their ability better to be able to maximize their current rank.
It would be useless if they only increased their force.
What Kyle wanted was for them to get used to their ability faster, so that they could kill the giant mutated animals on the wilderness more effectively.
Jake looked at Kyle and sighed deeply. Whatever, he just knew that he had to trudge in this path a while longer and become the builder that can be ordered left and right by everyone. He silently wondered why he couldn’t get more powerful element?
Not that metal was not powerful, but he didn’t want to be ordered by the others so much!
The group talked happily.
In the afternoon, their phones rang, telling them that the communication line was already fixed.
Dylan looked at his phone and the text message that his father sent to him. His eyes turned a bit cold.
“What is it, Dylan?”
“Go back.” Dylan stood up and put his phone away. “I’ll be back soon.”
The others looked at each other but they nodded. “Ok.”
He was told that the communication line was already restored and that he had to gather with his family members. Bidding farewell to the others, he returned to his own home.
“Will Dylan be fine?” Lotte asked, a bit worried when she watched Dylan’s back.
“Don’t worry. Even though those people in his family are somewhat annoying, Dylan can handle them.” Jake shrugged. “If he need help, I or Kyle can help out.”
Kyle nodded at Jake’s words.
He also trusted that Dylan would be able to settle this succession problem that had plagued him ever since before the red rain and these giant mutated animals appeared. But if Dylan ever needed help, the two of them wouldn’t hesitate to lend their helping hand.
They would not let Dylan faced it all by himself.
…
<Dylan’s Residence>
Dylan Family worked in various industries. It was to the point that their brand was so famous no matter where they went.
Not long after coming to City E, Dylan’s parents claimed a piece of land and paid the price in order to build their home and everything necessary. For them, it was necessary to rebuild their family.
As they built their business from the scratch, it was inevitable that they would also be tempted to challenge themselves to do it again.
With the world had changed, can they still be the ‘overlord’ in this field?
