Chapter 405: The Black Skull Society's Threat
Forest Fire City, the headquarters of the Academy's Council, or the small conference room, where all the nine elders gathered.
It's just that at this moment, they still have the same spirit as before, and they are all gloomy.
The announcement of the Black Skull and Bones Society has been sent, and the nine elders have all read it. At the beginning, everyone was endlessly angry, like the fifth elder and the sixth elder even clamoring to make the black skeleton look good.
But then, they couldn't clamor anymore. Under the reminder of the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder, they were fully aware that they had planned to mess up the matter of destroying the Black Skull Society without much effort!
In their opinion, mobilizing all the superior academies to encircle and suppress the Black Skull and Bones Society should be a breeze. But who would have thought that the black skeleton would be flipped, not only was it not exterminated, but it had tens of thousands of hostages in its hands.
"Damn, how did those people from the Black Skull and Bones Society do it?" the Fifth Elder couldn't help but scold, "Even if it's a few thousand pigs, it's impossible to be caught easily, right?"
The Sixth Elder echoed: "That is, maybe the Academy Council deliberately blackmailed us? It's completely fake, and they want to cheat us out of our gold coins, so they deliberately said that!"
The other elders also echoed it, and so far they didn't have any evidence that the Black Skull would have tens of thousands of hostages, and all the news was unilaterally said by the Black Skull Society, what if it was a lie to them?
The Great Elder sat in the first place and was silent, the Second Elder did not express his opinion, and the other elders were all arguing.
There was no way, there were also two or three elders who believed what the Black Skull would say. In fact, it's not that they believe it, but that they don't believe it is true, and if it is true? If they don't do it, then what will they do if so many people die?
They must take full responsibility, and the entire academy council must step down from the middle level and above cadres to the top level!
"Well, go ask the Black Skull Society, and if it's true, let them show the evidence. We can't accept their blackmail for no reason!" The Great Elder suddenly slapped the table and concluded.
The Third Elder hesitated: "But the Great Elder. We don't have the contact information of the other party's senior management. β
"Then I don't care, you have to pass on this news anyway, and you can't let other forces know!" the Great Elder snorted, stood up and walked out directly.
The second elder glanced around at everyone. Drop a sentence: "You can figure it out." β
Then he followed the Great Elder and walked out. The rest of the elders couldn't help but look at each other.
The Great Elder gave the order to die. They had no choice but to act. If you want to contact the Black Skull Guild president directly, it's not difficult, just shout to the whole continent. However, the Great Elder did not allow them to reveal this matter, so they had to mobilize their own connections.
In the end, the summons from the top of the Black Skull and Bones Society was obtained by an elder from the assassination union.
Don't look at the academy council and the assassination union seem to be natural enemies, but in terms of high-level aspects, there is also a connection, only a naΓ―ve Xiaobai would think that the two forces are life and death.
When it comes to this level, it is difficult to put the other party to death.
After finally getting in touch with the Black Skull and Bones Society's higher-ups, they immediately sent their request, and also demanded that the Black Skull Society keep the matter a secret, otherwise they wouldn't pay for it.
Soon, the Black Skull and Bones hierarchy replied with a message stating that the five hostages would be released and left for them to explain.
After receiving this reply from the Black Skull Society, the nine elders of the academy council suddenly had a bad feeling, the Black Skull Society released five hostages so indifferently, could it be true that what was said before was true? There are really tens of thousands of hostages in their hands?
The nine elders couldn't understand in their hearts, the headquarters of the Black Skull and Bones Society, with a great number of one or two thousand people, how could they withstand the attacks of tens of thousands of high-grade academies?
Although the Academy Council has also tracked and learned about the attack on the headquarters of the Black Skull Society, they only know about the superficial things, and after entering the underground passage, the summons cannot be sent, so they are completely unaware of the internal situation.
A day later, the five hostages released by the Black Skull Society had been carried to the headquarters of the Academy's council.
After the members of the Black Skull and Bones Society put down the stretchers of the five hostages, they immediately left, leaving them at the gate.
The members of the academy council soon discovered that there were five more wounded at the gate, and after reporting it, they were immediately given a gag order. These five students were carried into a large room unnoticed, and they were immediately treated by the light magicians within the academy's council.
The nine elders all stared outside with gloomy faces, and after a while, the doctor came out, and the elders couldn't wait to walk up and ask, "How are these five students?"
"It's not light, and I find that the qi in their bodies is almost all consumed. The doctor shook his head, "But fortunately, it's not a big deal, and you can recover after a while." After the elders go in, don't take up too much of their time, let them have a good rest. β
The elders nodded busily, and then let the doctor go down, but instead of entering immediately, they looked at the Great Elder.
"Go in!" the Great Elder said in a deep voice, and immediately walked in, followed by the other elders.
The Nine Great Elders rushed in, causing the five wounded to raise their eyelids somewhat. Seeing that the five of them didn't have any reaction when they saw the nine of them, the third elder couldn't help but cough deliberately: "Ahem, we are the nine elders of the academy council. β
Hearing this, the five of them finally reacted, and they all cried excitedly: "Elder, Elder, Woo woo woo......
Seeing that the five of them were crying, the elders were a little caught off guard.
The four elders were the most kind, handed over a few handkerchiefs, and gently touched the head of one of them: "Good, don't cry, you are all safe, what happened in the headquarters of the Black Skull Society?
The Third Elder also couldn't wait to ask, "You tens of thousands, how can you take a small black skeleton and be out of luck?"
The five wounded all cried and shouted, and told everything that happened inside the Black Skull and Bones Society, and the elders who listened to it were extremely shocked.
They didn't expect that the Black Skull Society would even build such a labyrinth, so that the students who entered could kill each other, and only the victor would be able to pass through the only exit to guΓ².
In this case, let alone tens of thousands of people, even if it is 100,000 people, it is impossible for a million people to get the Black Skull Club!
No matter how many people come, they will kill each other, and then fight to the last winner, only then can they be qualified to fight with the Black Skull Society, whether it is in terms of body, spirit, or number, in terms of cultivation, the Black Skull Society has taken advantage of it.
Many of the elders scolded the Black Skull Society for being despicable and shameless, and this move made their previous calculations completely come to naught.
"What else do you know?" the fourth elder glanced at the five people with frightened faces, and smiled softly.
The Black Skull Society specially chose five who were not affiliated with the same academy, so their words were highly credible.
One of them hesitated for a long time, and the fourth elder saw that he wanted to say something, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "Child, if you have anything you want to say, just say it?"
"I've heard a rumor in the dungeon before, and I don't know if it's true or not. The man slurred.
The third elder said impatiently: "What kind of rumor is it, tell it together, and there are no outsiders here. β
"I heard...... I've heard that the Seven Wolves Academy seems to have killed someone!" the student hesitated.
The elders of the Seven Wolf Academy looked at an elder behind them almost reflexively, although some news may be rumors to the outside world, but for these elders, it is the truth.
The Seven Wolves Academy is indeed related to a high-ranking member of their academy's council, and it is not an ordinary high-level executive, but one of the nine elders!
The elder could naturally sense the strange eyes of the others, and couldn't help but laugh dryly, "Killing someone? In that case, it shouldn't be a big deal to kill someone by mistake, right?"
The other elders also had to nod in agreement, when trying to win the right to the line, it is normal to kill people by mistake, after all, it is not surprising that they can't control their own strength.
The student shook his head: "It's not a mistake, I heard that it killed a lot of people, and it seems that the teams that have been in contact with them have all been slaughtered, and not a single one is left!"
"How is this possible?" exclaimed the elder.
The Great Elder keenly discovered the key to it: "Since it is a non-stay, how do you know?"
"I've only heard about it in the dungeon, and I don't know exactly what happened. The man laughed dryly.
The elder who had a relationship with the Seven Wolves Academy immediately reprimanded: "Since you just heard about it, then what are you talking nonsense? Since this matter has not been confirmed, you are not allowed to talk nonsense everywhere, understand?"
"Ah, I understand, I understand!" Frightened by the elder, the student nodded repeatedly.
The Second Elder glared at the elder, and then asked the student, "Do you know anything else?"
The five trainees thought about it and shook their heads.
The second elder nodded: "Okay, this matter is not suitable to be announced to the public, during this time, you will temporarily stay in the academy council to recuperate from your injuries, and then go back when you have recovered from your injuries." In addition, you are not allowed to have contact with the outside world without our permission. β
This is actually house arrest in disguise to prevent things from leaking.
After all, if such a big thing really spreads, wouldn't it be a disruption in the world?
All the higher academies in the whole continent were involved in this matter, and basically all the students were sent out, except for a few people who did not participate.
If they knew, even if they were on the council, they wouldn't be able to resist it at all. (To be continued......)
