Chapter 438: Wonder Hill Pavilion-1, Provocative Athan?

" Impossible...Why wasn't he affected by illusion mountain? impossible...impossible. " Red Genie muttered as he sat Athan, even breaking the last and most difficult hurdle to reach the peak.

Athan was actually impressed by this event. There were many mountains he had to pass through, and each mountain was completely different, with a unique atmosphere and traps.

In the end, The most difficult mountain turned out to be the easiest for him. The illusion simply didn't work on his soul, and he could see through it instantly.

On the other hand, One mountain he encountered in the middle gave him some trouble. That mountain had a chaotic gravity field in all directions, and his body was not strong enough to ignore that effect.

Sometimes, The attraction force would plummet downwards, so he would have a hard time walking, while sometimes, it would become a zero gravity zone. Sometimes, Chaotic attraction forces would roam vertically and horizontally with no fixed pattern, making it difficult to pass through that mountain.

Since that effect was atmospheric, He couldn't ignore those effects completely using his abyssal darkness, and it was consumed rapidly due to the vast amount of chaotic gravity-like forces he had to resist.

" Damn, Lad. You really did it. Finished the whole track to the peak in one hour and fourteen minutes. But your score is not as good as the previous three events. You get 149,500 scores. " Red Genie spoke with a smile.

Athan had a plain face with a slight frown on his face as he left the [ Finish ] Gate at the peak of this vast mountain range chain.

Hearing the words of Red Genie, He nodded his head, " I'm aware. I could've done better since I just need to practice my flying technique more. Anyway, I would have come back since I could get more scores, but no point since my score is already the highest. "

Red Genie weakly smiled and wiped off the sweat as he nodded, " Yeah, yeah. Now take this reward, lad. "

Red Genie threw a token at Athan, which he caught with his right hand.

The token had life-like carvings with lightning and fire raining on the mountains.

" This is Thunder-Fire Trial token. Generally, you need a lot of contribution to get it, but it's also listed as the reward if one breaks the all-time high score record of [ Race To the Peak ]. Show it at Wonder Hill Pavilion to know more about it. "

' Wonder Hill Pavilion again? I'll visit it since I'm done with all four events. ' Thought Athan as he put the token away.

The Red Genie opened the exit for him as he left the event dimension and returned to the event lobby.

Sweeping his glance across the lobby, He saw that none of those representatives remained here.

But not a second after he left, Everyone got a notification on their crystal card.

[ The previous All-time high score record of Race To The Peak has been broken by Linci Crow. The current highest score has become 157,000. ]

There was silence for a brief moment before an uproar started.

" Damn!! It's reverse this time. First, Athan broke the long-lasting All-time high score record, and then Linci broke his record. Hahaha. "

" I wonder how he must be feeling? "

" Who knows? Maybe he doesn't care? "

" Well, looking at his face...which we can't see because of his mask, we don't know his current expression. "

...

After seeing the notification, Athan's face had a faint smile, ' Guess I'll later come and take on this event again. '

At this moment, Someone approached Athan and said, " Umm...Senior Rukia told me to pass on this message chit. You can infuse your soul sense in it to hear the message. "

The person had a dog-face, a black dog's face with blue eyes, and was humanoid. After saying that, He gave a small piece of paper to Athan before leaving the event lobby.

Athan looked at the chit in his hand before infusing his soul sense in it. At that instant, He heard Rukia's sweet voice inside his head.

" Dear Athan, Your big sister, and other seniors are waiting for you at Wonder Hill Pavilion. I'm sure you also have some business there so do come there. "

After hearing the message, Athan slightly smirked and burned the chit into nothingness.

He then left the event lobby and directly met who was standing with two people near the gate of this event lobby.

It seems like he was waiting for Athan since he approached Athan with a smile right after seeing him. The other two people who were with him left instead of coming with him.

" Hahaha, It looks like Linci beat you in one. Anyway, I was waiting for you. You're going to Wonder Hill pavilion, right? "

" Yep. Hehehe, Those so-called seniors set it up well. " Athan smirked. If they called him to another place, He wouldn't go there. But it just so that he had to go to Wonder Hill Pavilion, and He was sure that he would see them right as he entered the Wonder Hill Pavilion.

He was sure that it was Rukia's plan. She had seen him enough to grasp his mentality slightly.

Since they had business with him, He wouldn't go towards them, But since they told him that they would be waiting at Wonder Hill Pavilion, There was no avoiding them.

He had also guessed their intention from the talk of surrounding people, but he had his own plans.

Both Max and Athan left the Newbie Event Palace and moved towards the distance giant pavilion. The pavilion had five floors like a big castle, and there were giant open windows with artistic design.

...

Right after Athan left the event lobby of Race To The Peak, Linci also left the gothic door. Naturally, she refused the rewards for breaking the record and simply left the event lobby.

She saw Athan leaving the Newbie Event Palace from its 3rd exit and guessed that he was going to Wonder Hill Pavilion.

But she had no plan to get along with his eccentric behavior, ' Does he not care about his life? Sigh...Wait, could it be that he likes me? No way. There should be another reason for his stubbornness. '

Sigh...Lady didn't know about Athan. But she had her beliefs to think like that. After all, She knew about her strange power and curse, and nobody in Lower Chaosverse could withstand it. She was sure of it.

...

Athan and Max arrived at Wonder Hill Pavilion and entered through the guardless gates.

But right after entering, He saw a group of people sitting at a lunge-like left side of the hall. They all sat on supple and comfortable sofas.

This Pavilion looked really beautiful and filled with a peaceful aura.

Seeing him enter, They all glanced at him. Rukia waved her hands at Athan with a smile, " Athan~...Come over here. "

Max knew about the commotion that happened in the Event Lobby knew that many representatives of different hill factions approached Athan for something. As for why? He already knew that.

' I should close this matte first in a clear-cut way. ' Thought Athan as he walked towards the bunch of Sofas where those representatives sat.

Athan walked towards them with a plain face and down on an empty sofa that was directly arranged in front of them.

" So? What's the deal? "

Hearing the indifferent voice of Athan, Some of the representatives frowned, but Rukia spoke first with a smile, " I'm sure you already know why we are here. In short, We have to recruit you, so we are all here. We will give you the introduction of the Hill factions behind us. "

Right after she finished speaking, A man who on the left side sofa of Rukia laughed and spoke, " I'll go first The Hill fa-"

" Save it. " Athan interrupted him before he could speak further.

He stood up and looked at all representatives before speaking, " I have no interest in joining any faction. So save the trouble of introducing them to me. If this is all that consists of the important matter, then I'm leaving. "

Rukia slightly frowned, but the other representative's face directly turned awful.

" Don't be arrogant just because you broke several records. " A human representative who wore an elegant silver suit and carried him with graceful aura spoke coldly. He had light orange hair and green eyes.

He stood up from the sofa and exuded the pressure of Zen order elite from his body towards Atha before speaking, " Don't forget that you are still at Orderic Catastrophe phase. "

" Hahaha..." Athan laughed out loud, hearing him for a few seconds before he mischievously smiled towards him, " So what if I am at Orderic Catastrophe phase? What are you going to do to me? "

He walked several steps forward and stood right in front of the silver-suit man who looked to be in his twenties.

Athan stopped at just one meter away from him before speaking with a smile, " Say, what are you going to do? Hit me? Kill me? Hehehe, Go ahead. "

But even though his face displayed a smile, His eyes had a mystical gleam of black and white that shone coldly.
