Bab 144: Chapter 143: Echoes of the Past
The room fell silent as Mr. Henry exited, leaving behind a palpable tension. Fred, sensing the gravity of Li Yang's thoughts, quickly broke the silence. "Come, let's take care of those credits," he said, motioning towards a terminal. Moments later, a digital chime sounded, signifying the successful transfer of 50,000 credits into Li Yang's student card. The weight of the sum was a testimony to Li Yang's achievements and capabilities.
With the credits secured, Li Yang made his way to the Treasure Hall. The grand chamber was filled with rare artifacts and relics, each with its unique story. But Li Yang's focus was singular. He was here for the Dual-direction Stone. Known for its unique ability to teleport between locations, it was a vital piece in his plan. After a brief exchange with the keeper of the hall, he acquired the stone, feeling its smooth surface and the power it held within.
However, the stone's usage wasn't straightforward. Li Yang needed guidance. And there was only one person in the academy well-versed in such ancient relics – Master Edward.
The wise old alchemist, surrounded by a myriad of potions and tomes, welcomed Li Yang. "Ah, the young prodigy! To what do I owe this pleasure?"
Li Yang wasted no time. Showing the stone, he said, "I need to activate this, Master. Time is of the essence."
After hours of intricate procedures and chants, under Edward's guidance, Li Yang finally mastered the usage of the stone.
With the Dual-direction Stone ready, Li Yang immediately used it to teleport back to the place where everything began. The once-familiar surroundings were now a wasteland. Buildings lay in ruins, and the air was thick with sorrow. Heart pounding, Li Yang searched the debris, hoping for any sign of his loved ones. His worst fears were confirmed when he stumbled upon a damaged recording device.
Activating it, a grainy image played out, showing his wife, tears streaking her face, bound and surrounded by menacing figures. A cold voice echoed, "If you wish to see her again, bring the jade amulet to MieXing."
The message ended, but the implications were clear. His beloved was in the clutches of a formidable adversary, and he had to act fast. MieXing, known for its treachery, was where his next battle would take place. Determined, Li Yang clenched his fists, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
