Chapter 1996 n.o.ble League

Sam appeared in the city and directly went to his academy.

Within the academy n.o.body dared to provoke him. His peers don"t have the strength and his seniors don"t have the authority based on what the Dean told Crow. All they could do is glare at him in hatred.

Meanwhile, the news travelled fast to the other academies.

Not just Pearl, every person that has some backing to their name targeted Sam.

They put up a bounty to know of his arrival and their cost was worth it based on how fast they got the information. As soon as this happened, many meetings were held within several academies and they are headed by people of various statures.

Some meetings are between instructors and elders, some are between the freshmen and soph.o.m.ores combined, some meetings are of student unions, some gangs and there are some solely run by soph.o.m.ores and some solely by freshmen.

All with different agendas.

Everyone is thinking of what action should they take and how they should approach in taking the stain that Sam left on their academies. One meeting in particular is discussing some immediate measures.

Within the private room of Nalan"s restaurant.

A group of soph.o.m.ores and freshmen gathered. The unique thing about this meeting is that all of these students are from different Olympian academies and this group is formed based on the heritage and legacy of the families these students belonged to.

This is a well-known group within this region and every kid belongs to a n.o.ble lineage that descends directly from Olympian G.o.ds and their ancestors and founders of the family are known to be demi-G.o.ds sired directly by the Olympian G.o.ds.

Of course, those Olympian G.o.ds might be of higher tier or some low-tier, but still they can be part of this group.

Every year when freshmen join the academies, new people will be added and the graduate students will leave this group. They execute missions together, help each other out and try to keep their legacy as n.o.ble families alive within this region.

This also helps their families maintain good relationships for their businesses and territories.

Right now, these n.o.bles all gathered together to find a way to deal with Sam"s position on the ranking within various Olympian academies. They felt that being the descendants of the Olympian G.o.ds, they have a responsibility to deal with Sam"s antics.

The leader of the group who belonged to the Zeus academy sat at the head of the table and looked at the freshmen.

"Are you sure you guys can"t beat that record? None of your peers can do that as well? We can send them support with resources and whatever they need to do that. Vidyut, White and Pearl are doing pretty well in my opinion."

This man is Christos and his family is pretty high up on the ladder even among the people in this group.

The freshmen didn"t even know how to answer that question.

Christos is one of the rare few who didn"t attend the tower ascension that day, so he didn"t get the full impact of the situation.

After a long silence, Christos sighed and said.

"We cannot let this stain stay on the Olympian academies like this. Since you are not sure, we can only explore different ways to approach this situation.

First one, is to target all the seed candidates. Make contact with them and offer them sponsorships. We will use our families" resources to help them breakthrough and in process, we will recruit them and for a separate unit that is directly under our n.o.ble League.

This group works for us, helps us in the missions and we will use their prowess to achieve our goals in the academy. Then when we go back, we can all try to recruit them into our own families based on what we can offer with some ground rules set between ourselves."

He paused and looked at the rest of the agreement.

Everyone nodded, they are really satisfied with the arrangement.

Christos looked at the freshmen and said.

"If we have the seed candidates within our group, then we wouldn"t have to resort to things like this. You be sure to improve. For that, our group will get in touch with Joker of the Hub. We will see if we can get some hidden techniques and training plans that will help you advance faster.

That aside, another way for us to deal with Sam"s ranking is a much more direct and brute method and I believe that it is necessary to make sure this kind of situation wouldn"t repeat itself."

"What would that be?" Another soph.o.m.ore who is sitting on the left side of Christos asked. His smile implied that the question might even be rhetorical and he already knew what he was asking.

"We will kill him."

Most of the room were stunned when they heard it.

Christos looked at them and sighed in disappointment.

"Seniors told me that you lot are going to be like this and you are even a bit worse than him. How can you not see far enough?

Even if the seed candidates manage to break Sam"s record now, he can just come back and push the bar higher. We have the problem of catching up with him, but he is nowhere near unleashing his full strength.

So, to make sure that doesn"t happen, we need to kill him and I have a plan for that…"

Chirstos went to explain the plan and all the details.

Meanwhile, at this moment inside Sam"s residence he is laying on his bed as he looked at the ceiling of the room.

The room is dark and a metal puppet is placed beside him on the bed as it projected an image on the ceiling. It showed the image of the meeting happening in Nalan"s restaurant.

He also got a message from Nalan about this, but Sam didn"t tell Nalan, that he doesn"t need it.

The metal puppets that he sent through the hub and the wrist bands they are wearing are the easiest way for him to listen in on to the conversations. This is one of the primary functions of the hub. It is a surveillance system. The puppets are in a constant recording state.

Whenever a conversation mentions Sam and other members of Dusk, an alert would be sent to the hub. There a central system will be alerted and the captured footage and audio will be transmitted there. The conversation will be a.n.a.lyzed and if there is any mention of threat or even suspicion, Sam would be given an alert.

And then he would be able to see the footage like this from anywhere within the region.

He doesn"t even have to worry about the signal nodes. Since almost everyone had a puppet in their possession, they did the node transmission job for him.

Sam felt like he should have used this method long ago. This is a great way to infiltrate territories and make them fall into traps.

Now that Sam knew all about their plans, it is about time he got ready.

He stopped the projection after the meeting was over and got off his bed, he stretched lazily as he deactivated the formation to let the warm light in. With just a thought a pair of gla.s.ses appeared in his hand.

They are transparent gla.s.ses and they looked just like any pair of spectacles a student, or a researchers or any guy with some style and a sight problem would use back on earth.

This is one of the newest inventions Sam made along with the hub. It is also connected to the hub. But it is not completed yet. At least not all of the functions Sam envisioned for it were completed, still it would just fine for the current state of things.

He checked the gla.s.ses and made sure everything is working fine and put them back. At this moment, his wristband beeped. A small projection appeared and it showed Christos standing in the hub.

"This guy is fast."

Sam smirked and sat down in the courtyard with his eyes closed.

At this moment, back in the hub.

Christos is sitting inside the research section of the pod and he awaited Joker"s projection.

Now Joker"s projection appeared in front of him.

"h.e.l.lo, Mr. Christos. It seems that you have search for a very extensive and complicated item. The main system got an alert. How can I help you? What do you need? I will be at your personal service."

Christos smiled and said.

"Sir Joker. I would like to have a private conversation with you. I want to make a deal and I believe you are the only person who can give me what I want and in exchange I believe I can give you a fair and satisfactory price."

"Well, the conversation we are having right now is private in itself. But I must tell you, I have no thoughts of selling the Hub or any of its internal mechanisms if that is what you are after."

"No, you absolutely misunderstood me. I want to see if you could provide me with a customized training plan. I need you to improve some of my companions who are freshmen in the academies now.

You wouldn"t have been able to create a place like hub without extensive and varied knowledge in cultivation and battle techniques. I need you to study the battle techniques and training procedure of these people and create an exhaustive plan for them to improve in all aspects.

The plan could be about their meditation habits, training procedures, practices, geographical factors, herbs and medicines they need to use, compatible food and nutrition. Everything. I will pay fairly if you are able to achieve the desired results and I can even give you more business after that."
