Chapter 159 - Part One: Lucius Jensen's Fury
Elder Thornton was impressed with Zack\'s performance. Zack\'s physical strength is comparable to that of an Early Special Trainee Warrior. After seeing that, he was convinced that Zack would easily win any upcoming life-or-death battles. However, He was later perplexed.
Zack didn\'t even use his elemental attack against Hutson from start to finish. So, for example, as Hutson. Hutson too didn\'t use the elemental attack. Elder Thornton, fortunately, did not delve too deeply into it. He persuaded himself that Zack was using it as a strategy.
The energy reserve of a Special trainee Warrior would be greater than that of an Apprentice. He assumed Zack had considered the situation. As a result, he decided to flee. Mr. Arthur, fortunately, arrived on time. Hutson was put off by his mere presence.
Elder Thornton, on the other hand, has already decided not to appear in front of Zack. He even told Mr. Arthur Emerson that he came here to keep an eye on the situation at Red Stone City Station. Where he saw Zack. Following this drama, Elder Thornton makes his way to Hansen Training Centre. He didn\'t even look Hutson in the eyes.
…
When Elder Thornton departed. Hutson had already disappeared behind a few more streets. He had earlier spotted Mr. Arthur Emerson. He had an immediate Dred reaction to his presence.
As a result, he decided to flee. "Fu*k, I didn\'t expect to see someone appear out of nowhere." Inside, Hutson wept. His face had darkened; with a few more strikes, he could have killed that brat. "I didn\'t get a good look at that guy\'s face. But to appear out of nowhere and save that brat. He must be a member of the Hansen organisation." Hutson made a mental remark.
In Red Stone City, there is no other connection for that brat. "I should have used the elemental attack from the start," he said as he walked back to the Red Stone city station. I squandered a golden opportunity to murder that brat. He will now be guarded by someone. It\'s not going to help me. If I keep wandering around here." Hutson muttered something under his breath.
He then immediately departs from the city. It would be far more convenient to stay near Zack\'s house than to wander around here in the Red Stone City.

<<Zack\'s point of view>>
As we arrived at the Hansen building a few minutes later. We parted ways as soon as we entered the building. Mr. Arthur informed me that he would notify me an hour before the meeting. So, in the meantime, I decided to do some practise. Rather than going to my advanced class. I make my way to the pod chamber. " It\'s been a long time. "I\'ve used that pod chamber since." I thought to myself.
Along the way, I discovered that fewer and fewer people wanted to talk to me. I snuck away from them as quickly as I could. I made it to the pod section room in a few strides. Maria Frazier greeted me as I entered the room. "Zack, what brings you here?" Maria inquired, a smile on her face.
"I should be the one asking you this question," I replied, smiling. "Wait a second, you broke through!" I was taken aback. As far as I can tell, her power level is that of a mid-level Trainee Apprentice.
Maria simply nodded in response to my response. "Well!" he exclaimed, seeing this. Congratulations." With a smile, I said.
"Thank you, but ever since the blood kill test, I\'ve wanted to fight you." Maria uttered, her eyes gleaming with battle intent.
When I see that, it makes me feel embarrassed on the inside. "Don\'t worry, it won\'t happen for a while," I told myself.
" I don\'t want to show off my lightning element." It isn\'t the right time yet. I have to keep a low profile no matter how difficult the situation is." In my heart, I was confident.
"Zack!" "Zack!" Maria uttered, noticing that I was thinking about something else.
"Don\'t worry, after the life-or-death duel," I heard. "I\'ll think about it," I said, smiling.
"What are you thinking?" Following the life-or-death duel. I\'ll ask Ms. Key to set up a practise match." As she exited the pod section room, Maria uttered.
"Another headache is on the way," I muttered under my breath as I saw her return. I walk to my pod chamber, shaking my head. I entered the credentials and the door slip opened, allowing me to enter.
The door closed on its own, and dense world energy appeared inside the pod chamber. "Heaven! "Just this breath is wonderful." Sensing the energy of the world. My face brightened with a smile. "Man! Who would have conceived of this scientific masterpiece? I want to give that person a big hug." I thought to myself.
When I first walked into this pod chamber. I didn\'t think it was very effective. However, Liz did not go to Mountain Liz. This flavour of dense world energy is something I miss. I didn\'t dither any longer. I infiltrated my consciousness into the storage ring.
I take out the meditation mat and lay it down on the floor. I sat down and began to cultivate lightning scripture. Because the World energy is concentrated inside the chamber. In comparison to my home, I can absorb more lightning energy here. Remembering that. I started cultivating with peace.
…
Near Elder Jensen\'s house.
A hulking man with brown hair. Walking toward the Jensen family\'s residence gate with black eyes and a well-defined body. Lucius Jensen is the man in question. He\'s feeling tense right now. He heard from his contacts along the way. The Jensens are having some difficulties. They were, however, tight-lipped about it. Hearing that from his contact, he couldn\'t keep his cool.
He immediately left his job and returned home.
In comparison to yesterday, there were fewer servants working in the courtyard this time. Many of them did not come because they were afraid of Lucius Jensen. Seeing Lucius approaching the gate with a solemn expression. A commotion erupted in the courtyard. "Young Lord, arrived !" "The young Lord is approaching!" One of the servants yelled as he went to inform Elder Jensen.
Because the rest of them don\'t want to face Lucius, they flee timidly.
Lucius didn\'t mind the commotion once he entered the house. Rather, He walks steadily to the family hall. Elder Jensen\'s second brother, who is currently in charge of some files. When he heard the commotion, he directed one of the guards to investigate. The guard soon informs him about Lucius. He dropped his file when he heard that. When he hears the name Lucius, his heart skips a beat.
"Go inform the family leader!" He gave the order. When the guard hears this, he walks away and informs Elder Jensen. Having said that, he rushes to family hall before being yelled at by Lucius.
Lucius sat in the leader\'s seat after entering the family hall. He didn\'t mind that he was sitting in his father\'s, the family\'s, seat. "What transpired?" It\'s best to consult with Father about it." Lucius Jensen thought to himself.
He was thinking about it at the time. The second brother of Elder Jensen enters the hall. Observing Lucius in the leader\'s seat. He came to a complete stop. Suddenly, Lucius approached him and asked, "Uncle, What happened to Father? I want to see him."
Elder Jensen\'s second brother took a deep breath when he heard that. "Man! I assumed he\'d inquire about his son. "It\'s better to have Elder Brother handle it," he reasoned.
Elder Jensen soon arrived at the family hall. "Lucius!" he exclaimed, seeing his son. He said something. When Lucius heard this, he rose from his seat and approached him. "How are you these days, Father?" Lucius asked a question.
"Don\'t worry, I\'m fine!" Elder Jensen smiled as he spoke. Lucius, on the other hand, was at ease. "Father is in good health!" "After hearing from those contacts, I assumed something had happened to father," Lucius thought to himself.
Elder Jensen, on the other hand, is nervous on the inside. He has no idea how to respond to him. He deliberated carefully. Lucius abruptly turned to face him and inquired, "What happened to Philip? "Is he in that Hansen Centre?" he asked, adding, "I told you father, a friend of mine works in a well-known institute in a tier-7 city." I think Philip should be recommended."
Elder Jensen\'s face darkened when he heard that. He has not yet recovered from his grief. In fear, his hands trembled. His second brother, on the other hand, keeps his distance. Seeing Elder Jensen cursed him on the inside.
Lucius, on the other hand, looked at them puzzled. He has been the one speaking from the start. No one is responding to him. "What transpired?" He thought to himself.
Lucius then locked his gaze on both of them. Especially towards his father. Observing his trembling hand.. Lucius expression turned serious.
