Chapter 825

Author: Dreamy Fire
Billy grinned and pointed at himself. "What's the matter? Are you mesmerized by me? Or do you know me?"

After taking a deep breath, Selmer forced a smile and waved it off. "Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."

Once Billy left, Felix turned to Selmer. "What was that about? Did you mistake him for someone else?"

Selmer's expression was a mix of shock and fear. Only a few people could get such a reaction from Selmer, someone close to achieving Blood Realm.

Selmer clenched his teeth. "Here's the thing, Mr. Zeller. 50 years ago, I was injured and fleeing through a forest. That's when I stumbled upon a fight between two people. No, you can't even call it a fight since it ended in the blink of an eye. The old man was instantly killed by a young man."

Felix chuckled at the story. "You're not about to tell me that young man was Billy, are you?"

Selmer nodded. "Yes! At least, he looked exactly like Billy. They have the same face and build."

Felix's eyes sparkled with interest. He trust

    "Interesting. Where did you learn that?" Billy asked.Felix recalled hearing about it from Nala while in Astoria. How could he forget? "You're not pulling my leg, right?"Billy was annoyed. "I never lie! Well… except for that time with Queenie when she paid me extra. Anyway, this harmonica is a genuine artifact. So, do you want it?"Felix extended a finger toward the harmonica. "I owe you one." "Two favors," Billy countered. "One," Felix insisted."Deal!" Billy huffed.As Felix fiddled with the harmonica, he asked, "Do I just play it?""First, you need to perform a blood-binding ritual. Once the artifact gets your blood, it will merge into your body, and you can use it as naturally as your own hands."Felix felt his excitement grow. This was the first time he had encountered something out of a fantasy novel. This artifact worked with a blood-binding ritual, unlike the Dragonspine, which required the Dragons Destroyer.Felix pricked his finger and let a drop of blood fall

    Felix eagerly took the item from Leslie and saw it was a medical book. "Was Mr. Hoffman keeping this from me?" Felix cursed at his stingy mentor."Why are all the pages blank?" He flipped through the book, only to find it empty. "Mr. Hoffman said you need to bind it with your blood to access its contents," Leslie explained. Felix's excitement grew. If it required a blood-binding ritual, it had to be something extraordinary. He pricked his finger and dripped blood onto the book. Like the harmonica, the book vanished and became one with his body.Felix quickly scanned the book's contents. Within moments, he was engrossed, oblivious to Leslie speaking beside him. "Felix, do you want me to massage your legs? You used to enjoy it when I did that for you."After some time, Felix felt something unusual and opened his eyes. To his surprise, Leslie's face was flushed red, and her hands were placed somewhere… less than appropriate."Leslie, weren't you supposed to be massaging my le

    "Watch closely! A new round begins!" Thomas threw a die onto the ground. When it stopped rolling, it showed a six.Tammy moved forward, counting six steps before stopping. She looked at Hudson tearfully, who remained motionless. "I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!"Thomas had devised a cruel game. When the die stopped rolling, whoever crawled the number first would win. If Hudson lost, he would be beaten. If Tammy lost, she would have to remove a piece of clothing.The game had already gone through three rounds. Hudson hadn't moved a single time, unwilling to let Tammy suffer humiliation."What a man," Thomas sneered and waved his hand. Two men stepped forward with baseball bats and began beating Hudson.Even though Hudson was a martial artist, the relentless beatings, on top of his previous injuries, were unbearable. Still, he didn't let out a single cry. Instead, he glared furiously at Thomas. "You monster! She's still in high school! You'll regret this!"Thomas stood up and smashed

    Skyward Guild? Felix frowned when he heard that. This gave the terrified Thomas a new sense of confidence.Thomas laughed. "That's right! My sister is the mistress of Skyward Guild's sect leader's son. If you hurt me, not only will you die, but every single one of your family and friends will perish as well! You're a martial artist, so you should understand how powerful Skyward Guild is."Hudson initially thought Felix could resolve this, but he now felt despair. He hadn't anticipated Thomas would have Skyward Guild backing him. What could Felix possibly do now?"If Skyward Guild really protects scum like you, it doesn't deserve to exist in the first place," Felix said coldly.Felix struck Thomas with a few needles, then tossed him to the ground. He picked up the terrified Tammy and inserted another needle into her, causing her to fall into a peaceful sleep.The needle's effect was designed to make Tammy feel as if everything that happened was just a nightmare, sparing her from tr

    An invincible force suddenly surrounded the guards. They paled as their bodies became immobile, as though bound by invisible chains.Fortunately for them, Selmer didn't want to kill them. Otherwise, they would have died by now.Within seconds, five figures appeared at the gate. Judging by their auras, all five were masters of the Blood Realm, a proof of Skyward Guild's might."What is the meaning of this?" a middle-aged man asked.Selmer smiled. "I've come to deliver a message on behalf of my master. And you are?"The middle-aged man's expression shifted after hearing that. It had been years since anyone dared to address Skyward Guild in this manner."I am Stamford of Skyward Guild," he replied.Selmer nodded. "Mr. Zeller was the one who hurt Thomas. This phone contains evidence of him kidnapping a high school girl and attempting to assault her. If Skyward Guild chooses to shield him, Mr. Zeller will prepare to fight."He tossed the phone to Stamford and left, leaving Skyward G

    In Gray City, just as Tranquil Clinic was about to close, a man walked in."Sir, you're not here to see a doctor, are you?" Felix asked, looking at the man as he entered."I'm Stamford Walter, the seventh elder of Skyward Guild. We've received the message you sent."With a slight lift of his right hand, Felix said, "You received it and still sent someone here. It seems like the guild isn't what I thought it was."Stamford got straight to the point. "Thomas died, but he deserved it! However, you've also injured someone of our own—Patrick."The sect leader has ordered that if you heal Patrick, everything will be as if it never happened."In Stamford's eyes, there was no way Felix would refuse. No one wanted to provoke the top guild in Dragonia over this.However, Felix shook his head. "Perhaps you think this is simple—or are you purposefully ignoring the details? Patrick assisted Thomas in his arrogance and recklessness. If he didn't, do you think that many tragedies would've happ

    "You—" The middle-aged man was utterly speechless. Felix was so young, yet the middle-aged man—a Pulse Realm martial artist—couldn't even take one of Felix's hits."You're truly a genius. And a quite low-profile one at that!" With that, the middle-aged man held his chest and turned to leave. Felix frowned. "You came all the way here, yet you're leaving already?"Although the middle-aged man knew he was outmatched, he showed no fear."Heh! Why? Are you still trying to kill me? The sun hasn't even set yet, and it's still broad daylight. I'd like to see you try."Felix spread his hands and smiled. "I'm just kidding! Don't get so worked up. I'm a good citizen. How could I kill you?"With a cold snort, the middle-aged man strode away.…Just as Felix returned home, Selmer called. "Mr. Zeller, it's all settled. The Greenes sent that man just to test your strength!"The Greenes? Felix hung up without another word. It seemed like Xena disrupting their plans had really pushed them int

    After arriving back in Gray City, Felix received a phone call from Xena, and he left for the hotel suite."Someone from headquarters sent this. He'll evaluate the effectiveness of your disguise," Zena said.She had brought along an old man with her. He seemed to be a smoking addict—besides the clear cigarette in his hand, the whole room had a strong smell of smoke.Felix nodded. "Alright, I'll go get ready." Since Felix was using a Shadow Mask, he couldn't publicly show him using it. When he came out of the room, he had completely transformed into another young man.When the old man finished his cigarette, he circled around Felix several times. A smile grew on his face as he exclaimed, "This is great! This is the only disguise I can't see through!"Xena was also extremely happy. After all, Felix was under her, and this could be considered her achievement."I'll be heading back to headquarters now, and the results will be shown tomorrow," the old man said.After the old man lef

    As soon as Chelsea's finger touched a card, it turned and displayed the number one. Hendrix immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Although there were no longer any tricks at this point, it all depended on their strengths and luck.If anyone met Chelsea in the first round, then it would definitely affect the morale of the rest of the battles. After Chelsea, several people jumped out simultaneously, including Lachlan and Felix. When Felix touched a card, it revealed the number three.Hendrix quickly frowned and looked over. There was another person he didn't want to fight—Felix.During the two days of rest, he talked a lot with Yvian. Of course, he had learned some things, like the cooperation with Lyle and Felix. This made him feel unsettled, but he didn't expect that they would meet.Once everyone had drawn their numbers, Chelsea and another player who had drawn the same number stayed on the island. The rest temporarily left the island."Begin!"The fight between the two start

    Holly was right—Felix could no longer question it. He smiled bitterly as he realized he had no choice in the matter. He thought for a while before suggesting, "What about this, if you're really part of their family, come back to Earth with me after the competition. Can you do that?"Holly agreed willingly. "Of course, I'm looking for family. That isn't an issue."Once Holly left, she contacted someone. A look of astonishment flashed in her eyes as she read Felix's information."Oh? I didn't expect this guy to be so well-known! Has Star Alliance already contacted him and offered a position as the Elder of External Affairs?"Given this information, it was evident just how powerful Holly's connections were. After all, not many people in Star Alliance knew of it.Since they were offering him the position of Elder of External Affairs, it seemed that Felix had already formed the Way of Mind. Holly didn't expect someone from such a barbaric planet to be so powerful."How interesting

    Felix's expression fell immediately, and he tried to push the woman away. "Are you crazy? Get out!"However, as he closed the door, the woman stopped it from shutting. "You're a contestant in this year's Rank-Ascending Competition, right? I can sense that there's someone in Star Alliance protecting you."But there are some things you can't avoid," she said. "Either you take this chance to talk to me, or I'll ask myself. It shouldn't be difficult to find out where you're from."Felix realized the seriousness of her words as he gazed at the woman. She could sense the higher-ups secretly protecting him, but at least she couldn't figure out who he was—in other words, this woman was extremely powerful.No matter her purpose, if she really went to Earth, who could stop her? Since the Rank-Ascending Competition hadn't ended yet, and with Earth still a mess, who could stop the invasion?"Fine, come in," Felix relented.The corners of her mouth curled into a smile. "Hahaha! This is the at

    "The Lord?" Felix wondered. But Jerry continued, "The Lord—the deputy leader of the Star Alliance. He's one of the champions of the Rank-Ascending Competition and one of the current fighters of the Star Alliance—Tyrone Linetti, nicknamed The Tyrant."When you were on the ninth floor of the Tower of Babel, he couldn't sleep a wink."Felix was shocked by the revelation. It turned out that he had no privacy at all, even in the tower. Besides the Spirit of the Tower, Star Alliance could also observe him.Before he could respond, Jerry nodded sagely. "Yes, Lord Tyrant discovered that you've successfully condensed the Way of Mind! Otherwise, why would he tell me to recruit you personally?"Sure enough, Felix's Way of Mind was discovered."You're so young, and you'd definitely rank among the top three in Star Alliance's records," Jerry said. "Hell, you'd even be better than Lord Tyrant! That is why Star Alliance is willing to make an exception for you."They're offering you the positi

    However, Felix was the only one who sat there unmoving. Julius quickly pulled him up."That's Jerry Gonzalez, one of the top three elders in the Star Alliance. You can't even fathom how powerful he is! How dare you keep sitting there?" Julius muttered.Felix hated having to worship the powerful, but there were times when he couldn't help it. He watched as Scopulus bent over in a bow, greeting Jerry respectfully. That told Felix everything he needed to know."Mr. Gonzalez, what are you doing here?" Scopulus asked warmly. However, Jerry smiled and completely ignored him. Instead, he walked straight to Felix."Felix! I'm Jerry Gonzalez from Star Alliance. Are you free to chat? Let's head into a more private area."Everyone in the bar watched with bated breath, and their mouths fell agape as they watched the scene unfold. One of the top three elders of Star Alliance came all the way here to find a contender. This has never happened before.Even if there was a contender from a pow

    Xenon helplessly said, "Dude, it doesn't matter if you sign the agreement. They've met their goal as long as you meet Lachlan in the round! If you lose to Lachlan, it doesn't matter if you live or die—you won't be able to save the Earth."At that point, you can't go back to Earth, so where will you go? Even if you run, you won't be able to escape death." Xenon was right—the Orions wanted to kill Felix quickly in the past so he wouldn't hinder their plans to invade Earth. …As Felix followed the two, he experienced the entirety of the Star Alliance headquarters. There was advanced technology that Felix had never seen before, as well as delicious food. "Felix, don't you want to check that place out? There are women from all races in the universe. You can do them however you want. Besides, Star Alliance will pay for it all," Julius teased.As a man, Felix naturally wanted to experience it all. But as a man with a family, he didn't want to. After a full day, no other families

    Just then, Yvian interrupted, "Dad, since Felix is this sincere, I think we should tell him some things in advance—to prove our sincerity."After a pause, Lyle nodded, and Yvian looked at Felix, saying, "What I said about Star Alliance was a very big maybe. Because of your current situation, they may not even come to help you. If they do, I can't predict what they will do."But one thing is for sure—if you need Star Alliance's help, you must join them. My family can't compare to them. I believe you understand that." Felix looked a bit unsure but smiled. He replied, "Thank you for telling me the truth. Let's take a look at the contract."Lyle's eyes glinted mysteriously. He knew that Yvian's words convinced Felix. Sure enough, with someone like that, Lyle could only treat him with sincerity—lies and deceit were meaningless to Felix.After reading the contract, Felix confirmed that it was exactly as Lyle had said. There was not even a word out of line."Alright, I'll sign it," F

    "No idea. Oh, right. My dad told me to check in with him, too," Julius said.Julius lifted his wrist, and a white wristband flashed briefly. Then, he closed his eyes.It was a communication device developed by Star Alliance. It was way more advanced than anything on Earth—it could handle video, voice, and even silent messaging—meaning it allowed direct brain-to-brain communication without anyone around knowing you were chatting.Right now, Julius was silently talking to Trent. "Father, Lyle just approached Felix to recruit him. What do you think about that?"To his surprise, Trent chuckled on the other end. "His instincts are still as sharp as ever. Don't worry about it. Lyle has always trusted his intuition, and so far, he's never been wrong. "His move doesn't affect us. You already have the upper hand. Like I said before, just stay friends with Felix. As long as you maintain that bond, it's as good as recruiting him for our family."When Julius thought back to how Felix had sa

    Julius and Xenon exchanged a look and chuckled."Do you know why they gave you two days of free time?" Julius asked.Felix shook his head and signaled for him to get to the point."Among the ten finalists, those without a strong family background are prime targets for recruitment. Hence, you might be one of them," Julius said.Felix thought it made sense—it wasn't all that different from how things worked back on Earth."Recruitment by families? Do they expect you to change your last name or something?" Felix asked.Julius laughed. "Of course not. Every strong martial artist has their pride. No one would agree to something like that. The ones they're interested in are people with limitless potential, like you. Since you come from a developing planet, you have no resources—you're a perfect target."He added, "For instance, if my family wanted to recruit you, we'd propose an alliance. You wouldn't have to give up anything—you would only need to agree to a contract saying you'd hel
