Chapter 109: So What If You Can Predict It?
“Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang…”
The blades were attacking at high speeds.
Hobrick, who was upstairs, had finally left the bathroom,. With a newspaper in his hand, he looked down at Locke and shouted, “Brat! Stop playing! If this continues, my place will collapse! If that happens, I’m going to live in your dormitory!”
Those words were highly effective.
“No! Please don’t!” Locke’s expression immediately froze. He then ordered Gale Wings to launch Hurricane Piercer at Clement!
Flying Slashers immediately turned around and blocked the attack for Clement!
“Brat! You’ve already seen how fast my Flying Slashers are! They can even predict your skill in advance! It’s useless to do that!” Clement grinned and exclaimed.
“So what if you can predict them?” Locke responded while digging his ears.
Then, he immediately turned Infinite Fire Element into a flaming spear!
“Hehe, looks like you’re underestimating me! You can’t match my speed in aerial attacks! Just watch as my Flying Slashers break your spear apart!”
Clement’s Flying Slashers were shining with an epic orange color. After charging for a short while, they then launched towards Locke!
As they flew, the sonic boom indicating that the sound barrier had been broken rang out.
It was so powerful that it had sent debris launching off the ground!
A few students with poor mental fortitude had already covered their eyes.
Locke snorted lightly and raised his spear to intercept the blades!
“Slice it apart!” Due to the unique ability of his Battle Beast, Clement already knew that Locke would not adjust his spear’s trajectory.
Flying Slashers were very intelligent. It flew to a higher position and slashed down at the fire elemental spear!
“Clang! Clang!”
Clement’s eyes involuntarily widened. He did not expect his epic-tier Battle Beasts to be so easily repelled!
Moreover, there was not a single scratch on the fire elemental’s body!
‘Is this the power of a rose gold beast?’
Suddenly, a long spear was rapidly heading his way!
“Flying Slashers!”
Clement reacted quickly and immediately ordered Flying Slasher to intercept the attack!
“Bang!”
Although they had managed to make contact with the spear, the heaven-defying power of the spear had shattered one of the blades of Flying Slashers!
The long spear then struck Clement’s collar and pinned him onto the wall behind him!
“Wow! Fast and powerful!”
“It seems that in the face of absolute power, clairvoyance and speed is useless…”
Two students who were watching the battle unfold were quite perceptive. They immediately understood Locke’s way of winning.
Locke looked relaxed. He walked up to Clement, who could not touch the spear because of his short stature, and said, “Hey! If you want to come down, you have to pay 50 million!”
“Wasn’t it 30 million?”
‘Good lord, in just a few minutes, he’s already hiked up the price?’
“Look at this mess! This area is full of ancient buildings! You are destroying history! 50 million is considered rather cheap!”
In truth, Locke had no intention to kill him, he just wanted to teach the baldy a lesson.
“Dammit, you silly child! This damage is worth at least 60 million in compensation fees!” Hobrick expressed his disappointment by lowering and shaking his head.
Clement was hanging on the wall in a very sorry state. As the students began to make fun of him, his face gradually turned into a shade of red.
“Alright, Alright! Put me down first! I’ll give you a cheque!” Clement could feel that his remaining Flying Slasher was already heavily injured and it was temporarily out of commission. Helplessly, he could only agree to Locke’s request.
Locke crossed his arms and said, “My spear is pretty sturdy. You can write the cheque up there!”
Although it was an amount that no commoner would ever dare to dream of, it was still nothing to Clement, who was in service to the Frank family for many years.
He quickly took out his cheque book and filled in the numbers before throwing it to Locke.
Lil’ White then used Spatial Movement to snatch the cheque from mid-air!
“Mm! At least you’re honest…” After confirming that the numbers were correct, Locke called back Lil’ Flame.
Following that, a heavy thud could be heard, as Clement had crashed onto the ground.
“Ouch…” Clement rubbed his aching buttocks and glared at Locke angrily.
“What? Are you still mad? Do you want to fork out another 50 million?” Locke put the cheque into his pocket.
At this moment, the sound of a helicopter came from high in the sky. Joey held the loudspeaker and shouted at Clement, “What’s wrong with you? What took you so long? Let’s go!”
Clement glared at Locke and ran to grab the rope ladder that was dropped down by the helicopter.
“Goodbye! Freddy!”
Clement shouted angrily, “It’s Frank! Viscount Frank…”
At this moment, the three directors also rushed to the scene. After observing the situation, they roughly knew what had happened.
“John! Are you alright? Your lungs are still very weak!” Trista noticed that John’s expression was a little ugly.
Diana adjusted her black-rimmed glasses, looked at the helicopter that was far away and said, “There will be a battle between us sooner or later!”
“Way to be in the limelight again, kid!” Jacques patted Locke’s shoulder, and then shouted to the students present, “Alright! Those who should go to class, go back to class! Be careful or else you might enter detention!”
Realizing that the new Director of Education meant business, the students quickly dispersed.
“Kid! Give me the cheque!” Hobick asked Locke for the cheque in front of everyone.
Locke rolled his eyes. “What cheque?”
“Don’t play dumb! It’s in your left pocket!”Hobrick said as he ran downstairs, ready to snatch it.
Locke ran away. “How about I pay for the repairs to your office?”
“Cut the crap! I’m the highest authority in the school! You should listen to me!”
“You old geezer! Why are you so greedy?! I really can’t figure it out! What do you need so much money for?”
“None of your business! Hand it over…”
When the instructors saw the two of them chasing after him, beads of sweat immediately dripped down their foreheads.
“This old man is really greedy…”
“Sigh, it’s too disgraceful…”
“As the new Director of Education, I have to make sure that the principal influences no one else with his habits…”
“Forget it, I’ll find workers to repair the wall first. Otherwise, if the lighthouse leaks at night, the old man will come to my place! I can’t stand his snoring…”
“More importantly, the principal has always been frugal. Why does he need so much money? I’d like to know…”
In the end, after a lengthy and “friendly” negotiation, Hobrick had managed to take away 20 million from the deal.
