Chapter 271 The Silver-masked Man
Tristan wanted to follow, but Thora’s order left no room for argument.
“Let’s go!” He turned around and led their group the other way to catch up with the main team.
Finished
After splitting from them, Thora headed straight back into the part of the forest they had just passed.
Thick fog clung beneath the trees, and with their wolf abilities suppressed, it was easy to lose their way.
Luckily, the valley’s strange magnetic field didn’t stop abilities.
Thora closed her eyes and sent out her mental energy, sensing everything around her.
To the southeast, there were breathing sounds. More than one!
Her first thought was that Luke was there, so she dashed in that direction.
Luke wasn’t particularly strong in combat. Even though his body was tougher than before, he still looked like a gentle, weak guy, easy to hurt.
If Luke fell into the hands of killers or dangerous people…
Thora moved faster. But just as she got close to those breaths, she suddenly stopped and even held her own breath.
“You want to kill me.” A calm, male voice came through the mist.
Thora hid behind a tree. And when she saw what was happening, her eyes went wide.
It was him!
The man in the silver mask!
He was facing off against a few people.
“Can you blame us? You look so competitive. We were hired, so we have to take
you down.”
“We wanted to kill that woman first, then you. But she’s tough. We’ll start with you.”
Two killers didn’t say anything else. Daggers ready, they charged at the masked man.
Thora’s eyes stayed locked on the silver-masked man.
He didn’t move at all. A dark, deadly aura radiated from him.
He didn’t do anything, not even twitch, but the two men were thrown backward by some invisible force. When they hit the ground, they were already dead.
The black aura wrapped around their bodies. Their faces were twisted and horrible, like they had died in terrible pain, eyes wide open, unable to rest in peace.
At the same time, everything around the masked man’s feet-the grass and flowers-withered instantly,

melting into the soil.
Thora’s eyes narrowed.
It was an ability.
And an incredibly strong one.
She couldn’t even tell what kind it was.
She had never seen anything like it before.
At that level, it was likely an ability completely outside her experience.
She frowned. Blue Star Military Academy really was full of top fighters.
If she was right, his ability rank was at least SS.
Thora was smart. If there wasn’t a real reason to fight, she stayed out of trouble whenever she could.
Just like the masked man standing right in front of her.
She withdrew her aura, turned, and ran off to continue searching for Luke.
The longer Luke stayed out of contact, the more likely he was to be in danger.
Finished
As for fights between candidates during the academy’s admissions test, the academy usually didn’t step in unless it got out of control.
It was one way to weed out people who didn’t belong in a military academy.
Thora had just started to leave when a low, dangerous voice whispered in her ear.
“Trying to sneak away after spying on me?”
The moment she heard it, her whole body tensed instantly.
By reflex, she had already leapt several yards away.
In a blink, she had moved out of her previous spot.
But the dangerous aura hit her the second her feet landed.
It was fast. Too fast to dodge.
For the first time, Thora really felt danger in her gut.
The silver-masked man appeared right in front of her, as if a devil had jumped out of the mist.
They were too close. Uncomfortably close, the kind that made your skin crawl.
She could only see the sharp, unnaturally pale line of his jaw and a flash of red eyes behind the mask.
