After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 733 - 509, Heaven Rank Commander, The Night of the Storm
Chapter 733: 509, Heaven Rank Commander, The Night of the Storm
“Rest assured, boss, absolutely foolproof, I didn’t leave a trace.”
The ninja curled his lips and said mockingly, “A few country bumpkins, daring to occupy an A-grade Cultivation Room, especially that shorty… Tsk tsk, lousy temper, though pretty good-looking. Hehe.”
Scar said coldly, “As long as we can get their Cultivation Room, I don’t care about the rest.”
“Thank you, boss!” The ninja was ecstatic.
…
Brushing past those three, Lin Da and his team arrived at the Commander’s Camp.
It was an enormous blue tent. Lin Da pulled aside the curtain, and they filed in.
Inside was as warm as summer, and the fireplace crackled.
Frost on their jackets slowly melted, and Lin Da’s numb feet began to regain sensation.
Under the lamplight, a green-haired man was hunched over a desk, holding a quill pen as he reviewed documents.
The man’s features were refined and gentle, with silver-rimmed glasses and a blue-and-white scholar’s robe exuding a strong scholarly aura.
Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, the man didn’t lift his head and said, “I am [Breeze] Angel, one of the Commanders of Ice Abyss, responsible for new recruit registration and issuing Cultivation Points. And you are?”
Lin Da placed his right hand on his chest, slightly bowed, and performed an adventurer’s salute: “Commander Angel, I am Lin Da, from White Dove City, invited by Coldmoon Duke to train at Ice Abyss.”
Angel frowned slightly, his hand pausing as he reviewed the documents. “Invited by Coldmoon Duke?”
Inside the tent, the furnace burned brightly, and the cracking sound of firewood was piercing. A palpable pressure seemed to freeze the very air.
“This is Coldmoon Duke’s handwritten invitation letter. Please take a look.”
Lin Da retrieved Coldmoon Duke’s personal letter alongside a leave approval slip from Instructor Tannis.
A gentle breeze swirled past, and Lin Da’s vision blurred. The items in his hand vanished and were now in Angel’s grasp.
The faces of the Phoenix Tail Flower team changed.
Even Lin Da hadn’t seen what happened in that instant. If Angel hadn’t merely taken the envelope but instead attacked him directly, Lin Da wouldn’t even have had a chance to use the Experience Card.
Heaven Rank!
These two words abruptly entered Lin Da’s mind.
In the game, Heaven Rank was the uppermost level cap of this map.
The Angel Commander before him was very likely the most elite adventurer in the Cangqing Province.
The armored golden soldiers Lin Da had encountered guarding the Ice Abyss gate were Sacred Rank; facing them, Lin Da felt there was still room for resistance. But confronting Heaven Rank felt like being faced with an endless ocean—immeasurable and unfathomable.
Scanning the entire continent, the number of Heaven Rank adventurers didn’t exceed a thousand. They truly stood at the pinnacle of the pyramid.
Angel finished reading the letter, a peculiar glint flashing in his eyes as he said meaningfully:
“The seal and handwriting are authentic, indeed from Coldmoon Duke. Among those invited by her to join Ice Abyss, there have only been three so far. However… you are somewhat lacking compared to the previous two.”
Those two—one founded the Primitive Adventure Team, and the other was just one step away from ascending to the rank of Legend.
Lin Da maintained his composure: “Since the letter is confirmed, please issue the Cultivation Bracelet.”
Only with the bracelet could one officially count as a member here.
Angel flicked the aged leave slip, smiling faintly: “A year-long leave—you’re the first I’ve encountered in my tenure. According to Ice Abyss rules, the maximum leave per instance is one month. Coldmoon Duke despises those who break the rules she establishes. Do you understand what this means?”
Lin Da remained silent.
Angel’s expression darkened: “It means I can revoke your admission. Do you really think Ice Abyss is a place you can come and go as you please? Leave, and come back next summer to reapply for admission after passing the exam!”
With a casual wave of his sleeve, a ferocious gust of magical wind surged toward Lin Da and his team!
It resembled an invisible tidal wave of destruction. Lin Da’s Life Barrier was instantly riddled with cracks!
What was most alarming was that this magical storm targeted only the Phoenix Tail Flower team—the fireplace still crackled, and the table’s greenery basked in fresh air unperturbed. Only Lin Da’s group resembled tiny fishing boats engulfed in a tempest, seemingly on the verge of destruction. Angel’s precise control over magic power was utterly mind-boggling.
“Urgh!”
Monica, with her fragile build, was the first to succumb, blown out of the tent by the storm.
The second to fly out was Mingli, screaming and flailing, his voice swallowed by the snowy gusts.
Tasya gritted her teeth, struggling hard, her skirt fluttering wildly to the edge of revealing her white-stockinged garters. Seconds later, she couldn’t hold out and was expelled as well.
Kafni was unexpectedly the fourth to be flung out of the tent.
Thanks to Lin Da’s efforts, Kafni had the highest rank among the Phoenix Tail Flower team.
Amid the relentless winds, there were still three holding on.
At the forefront stood Lin Da, his face ashen as he drove the Serpent Shadow Patterned Sword into the ground. His body slowly retreated as the sword carved a slit into the carpet. His feet braced against the tent’s entrance, finally halting.
On either side were Anna and Taige.
Anna let out a low growl, transforming into an Ancient Giant Bat, her gray-blue fur as sharp as steel needles.
Post-transformation, instead of retreating, she took two steps forward against the storm!
Taige roared furiously, a flaming “King” character emerging atop his forehead.
A violent eruption of flames blasted a gap through the storm.
Angel glanced over momentarily while reviewing his documents. Seeing they were still holding on, he waved his sleeve again.
Instantly, the storm intensified nearly twofold!
The curtain flew open, revealing the pitch-black night outside that resembled the gaping maw of a wild beast, viciously sucking Lin Da and the others inward.
Taige could no longer hold out. His legs lifted off the ground as he was unwillingly thrown out of the tent.
Lin Da exerted all his strength, his pupils flickering with a deep black hue.
