Conquering The Game's World

"Professor Hena!"

Cobert was yawning listlessly. Upon noticing Hena approaching, he raised his hand and greeted her.

"You are here alone. Are your teammates out yet?" she asked with her brows tensed.

Cobert stared at her, expressionless. Then, a moment later, he pointed in the direction of the cave and uttered.

"Still inside, there’s a barrier surrounding the cave. I can’t find out the situation inside. I tried to contact them through the mana bracelet, but it didn’t work. Maybe the barrier is blocking our connection."

His voice was plain, not the slightest bit anxious. As if he didn’t care about the life and death of his teammates.

This indifferent attitude made Hena’s opinion of him negative. Her brows furrowed, but she didn’t scold him or anything. She just asked. "Aren’t you worried?"

Cobert shrugged his shoulders and stated calmly.

"There’s nothing to worry about. Since Luis is also there. Everyone will be fine."

Hena paused and curled her lips slightly. "You are so confident."

She shook her head, then without waiting for him to reply. She turned to the rescue staff standing some distance away and pointed at Kress and his team.

"You take them away first. Professor Darrin will deal with the rest."

"Yes, Professor!"

Then she started walking towards the barrier.

Cobert stared at her back and hesitated for a moment.

’Although, I wish Luis would die. I can’t appear too indifferent, right? Besides, Sufi and Bonnie never made trouble for me like him. I still hope they can be safe.’

As if finding reasons for himself, he followed her steps.

When they got closer to the barrier. They met the other rescue staff, who followed Luis and the girls before.

"Professor!"

"What’s the situation?"

"Before I could follow them in, this barrier appeared and blocked my way."

"Hmm," Hena nodded, then observed the barrier with a serious expression.

[Professor Vindsmokwe, your understanding regarding barriers and formations is the highest among us. What should we do?]

Inside the lounge, the professors had a complete view of the situation from the rescue staff’s perspective.

Since the barrier appeared, Professor Vindsmokwe has already told them that this barrier was part of a killing formation. However, he can’t guess which killing formation it is without seeing the situation inside. So, he can’t give a solution without contacting the trapped students.

Olivia, who had absolute confidence in Luis, was also a little flustered.

When Hena’s voice sounded inside the lounge, Professor Vindsmokwe immediately spoke out.

[Little Hena, this is a killing formation. I can’t give an accurate solution without finding the inside situation. So, try using your mind techniques to make contact.]

[Is it okay?]

[Don’t worry, at most there will be some backlash on you and this killing formation shouldn’t be strong enough to hurt you.]

[I see.]

After hearing Professor Vindsmokwe’s affirmation, Hena didn’t waste any time and used her Mind Link Technique to establish contact inside.

Before, she didn’t try something because she was worried that her actions might trigger something and make their situation worse. She didn’t really care about the so-called backlash or hurting herself.

As Hena activated her technique, her mental power spread. To her surprise, when her mental power touched the barrier, nothing happened, and she easily passed through.

Although, something was preventing her from seeing the inside situation. There was no problem in establishing contact.

She felt a familiar presence and guessed it might be Luis. So, she immediately tried to link their consciousness.

{… Luis, can you hear me?!}

{… Professor Hena?}

{Yes, it’s me! Are you guys alright?!}

{Yeah, it’s just a little hot.}

While talking, Hena also used her technique to connect their conversation with the lounge.

{Listen, I have connected our mind link with the professors in the control room. Professor Vindsmokwe is an expert in barriers and formations. With his help, you can definitely get out.}

Hena talked so much, just so to reassure them. She felt that after being trapped inside, they should all be anxious. Which may make it difficult for them to properly follow Professor Vindsmokwe’s guidance and take action with a calm mind.

Professor Vindsmokwe also understood this, so he said in a confident tone.

{Yes, student Luis! You will all be safe! Just follow my instructions step by step and I will take you all out! Now tell me, what do you see inside around you? What changes have there been after the barrier appeared?}

He wanted to judge what kind of formation it was based on Luis’ description. Then find a solution.

All the other professors also waited to understand the situation inside, through Luis’ words.

However, when he spoke. What awaited them was not the description of the situation as they expected, but rather Luis’ polite rejection.

{Ah? Thank you, Professors, for your care! But there’s no need.}

No need?

What does he mean?

His words not only confused the professors inside the lounge but also Hena, who was biting her nails outside, with an anxious look.

"Is he kidding?"

She muttered in disbelief.

Although her voice was small, Cobert beside her heard it clearly. @@novelbin@@

"What’s wrong, professor?"

"Luis, he… rejected our help?" When she spoke, she was still dumbfounded.

"Oh…"

After hearing this, Cobert nodded without much surprise and turned his head to look at the barrier.

Seeing his lack of reaction, she was even more confused.

"Why did he say that?" She asked.

"Isn’t it obvious?" Cobert shrugged and pointed towards the barrier. With no intention of explaining further.

Right after, she also heard Professor Vindsmokwe asking the same question in the link.

{Why don’t you need our help student Luis?}

He even wondered if there was something wrong with the students’ mental condition after being trapped. As his thoughts started becoming outrageous, Luis answered in a calm and confident tone.

{Because-}

At his pause, a click sounded.

Under everyone’s surprised eyes. Cracks started appearing on the barrier like a broken mirror. Which shattered into pieces right after and disintegrated. Enjoy new chapters from NovelBin.Côm

Then, Luis words followed by.

{I’ve already broken the formation.}
