Chapter 2208 Virat

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"So, you guys are finally making a move?" Trenk asked as he looked at Icarus.

Icarus gave him a side-eyed glance and didn't even bother with him. He is impressed with Trenk and his fighting ability, but that surprise and shock were gone in an instant. After meeting Sam, it takes a lot more to astound him than some fighting prowess.

He looked at the fourth grader from the Zeus academy.

Icarus closed his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath before opening again. A cold glint flashed past his eyes.

"You are here to help me? I thought you left the academy for some ideal bullshit. You are just as opportunistic as the Olympians." Trenk said with a scorn. However, Icarus didn't reply and made his move.

Three seconds later.

He stood there with bloodied hands while holding the head of the fourth grader in them. He walked out into the street and threw the head a bit into the air. Once it got sufficient altitude…

*BOOM*

He kicked it like a ball and launched it to the Zeus academy.

After that, with a wave of his hand, he disappeared from the spot and reappeared at a different area. Trenk frowned at this behavior. He suddenly felt like he was used. After a few minutes, he walked out of that messy restaurant and was about to leave.

But at that moment, people from the Zeus academy came. They are the members of the student council and they are all fourth graders.

When they sensed Trenk's cultivation level, they were puzzled and felt their rage dampen a bit. It was clouded with confusion.

"I guess you guys came looking for the killer. It's Icarus."

He didn't bother waiting for them to ask anymore questions, he just used the wrist band to transfer the video recorded by the bird puppet to them and left.

The seniors saw the video and were stunned.

It was indeed Icarus. He just killed someone out in the open and he didn't even bother to hide his identity. It is apparent that he is provoking them directly. They immediately made a move.

One of them went to inform the members of the academy, while the other went to meet the city guards to track Icarus down. When the first one went back to the academy, he saw a few more people already back at the academy meeting with an elder.

All of them had the same complaint.

Members of their fourth grade have been killed at various spots in the city. All at a swift pace like they were weeds being pulled out of the field.

None of the perpetrators bothered to hide their identity though. They came using spatial blink, killed and left using spatial blink that is all. As for the identities of the killers, as mentioned before, they didn't hide themselves.

Everyone looked at them and realized that they are the managers of the Hub and also the former students that were mistreated greatly in the top academies of the academy realm.

They had caused quite some chaos in different regions after they became the managers of the hub, but for the first time, they acted this violently.

Before the city guard or the elders in the academy could react, the killings already went past twenty. The fourth graders are like little kids compared to what the managers could do. There is no resistance. Particularly, since their initial targets are mostly within the Initial stage of Divine Plane Transcendence.

The chaos that initially started in a small scale, suddenly escalated to complete mayhem.

Meanwhile in Sanatan Realm…

Virat is sitting in the same forest that he always stayed in. He is holding a few metal pieces while a bunch more were neatly arranged on the table.

His upper body is bear and his locked hair was left loose. He wore some loose saffron robes that covered his lower body. He had slight scruff growing out of his chin.

This is the same kid that has been trying to unlock the bird puppet for the longest time and a few minutes ago he succeeded. Not only did he manage to bypass all the inscribed formations, he also found the way to dismantle the puppet.

Even though there were a lot of intricate and delicate mechanism, they are fundamentally just iterations of some basic mechanisms. His mind was sharp enough to understand them and dismantle them quickly.

For some it almost felt like, he already knew how to do it inherently.

However, in that excitement, he completely ignored that weird feeling.

Right now, he is trying to understand the purpose of each of the parts of the bird puppet. There are two parts that he is highly curious about.

One of them is a crystal chip and the other is the puppet core.

The puppet core is also a culmination of various mechanisms, but they are bonded together with the energy source in the middle. This made it hard to remove as even a slightest mistake could make the core explode making him lose everything.

The crystal chip is similar to the chips the Thor academy and Zeus academy found. Virat doesn't know its purpose yet. However, the puppet core on the other hand had some very obvious functions.

Energy reservoir, energy gatherer and energy distributor are the three primary roles that it plays. Apart from that, he cannot understand what it does and he is not exactly an expert in dealing with the energy bonded objects like this.

For that he has to share the secret of dismantling to the rest.

So, for now he placed the core away and focused on the rest of the objects.

For the next couple of hours he was on it. Most of the metallic objects that are part of the mechanism are very easy for him to understand. They were levers, gears, springs, and many more. There are also recording mechanisms, the navigating system, attack storage system, the defensive measures… it is indeed a marvel created by intricately combining the results of various fields.

The more he studied it, the more impressed he became.

After some time, his gaze finally landed on the chip. This chip was attached to the memory device of the puppet. The memory device stored all the recorded videos and images of the puppet. Even though Virat managed to understand the purpose of all the other mechanisms, he still cannot understand what the purpose of this chip is.

Then he could only understand it in one way.

Testing.

He started testing the chip in multiple ways using various mechanisms of his own. Another hour or so passed by when the curiosity and excitement on his face started changing to a face of worry and distress.

After some trials, he understood that something is wrong with the chip. Or to be precise, the chip is functioning perfectly, but the function itself is something that shouldn't happen in the first place.

And if it is happening that means… he couldn't imagine the implications.

However, no matter how much he tested it, the results are always ending up with the same conclusion. That this is indeed as bad as he initially thought…

After some time, he almost pulled his hair out. He took some of the parts of the puppet that laid there and started assembling them. It was mostly the head and some lower mechanisms that are used for recording and projecting.

After mechanism was installed along with the chip then he saw some changes.

Now what happened was that within the memory space of the puppet a bunch of new files
