left the university and started moving towards the destination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About 30 minutes later, The flying car enters Star City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the window view, I couldn’t see the end of the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The land size of the city is stretching endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are many skyscrapers and tower buildings with different architectural designs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could see the different models of flying vehicles moving across the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flying vehicles follow the route and move at a steady speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About 10 minutes later, The flying car landed in front of a circular building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s the Main City Auction House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Warrior, we have arrived at the destination,” The driver said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thanked him before stepping out of the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I started walking towards the auction building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver then starts flying back to the University.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I was walking close to the building, I realised how big the building was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I guess the auction room would be massive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guests from many forces attend the auction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I reached the Gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was stopped by the Guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since I’m in uniform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their attitude was respectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I showed my I.D.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and explained the purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning that I’m here for the escort mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them quickly contacted the person above them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly afterwards, A middle-aged man with broad shoulders appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was dressed in a black suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a professional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello, my name is Rick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m in charge of one of the escort teams here who posted a task in Thunderflame Faction,” the middle-aged man said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A look of understanding dawned on me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, there are other escort teams,” I thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I replied, “Hi, I’m Zack Lockwood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the Star University’s Thunderflame Faction.” The middle-aged man, Rick, was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, “So you are a rising new star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard you have shocked everyone with your virtual duels.” A hint of disbelief appeared in my eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought I was low-key here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what’s happening here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rick noticed Zack Lockwood’s expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, “Don’t be surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The overlord of this place is Star University.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So people living here are interested in warriors studying in the University as well.” Sigh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sigh escaped from my mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s good to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But can we talk about the mission?” I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come with me,” Rick replied with a smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he guided me to the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When we entered the building, I was amazed by the design and architecture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It gives a luxurious look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I couldn’t help but wonder about the ticket price for the seats here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly afterwards, We arrived at his office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rick went to his main seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sat opposite him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rick’s face turned serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He takes a deep look at Zack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn’t see through his strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So his eyes flash with surprise again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then said, “It’s time to talk about the mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is a reason why I have posted the Task in the Thunderflame Faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the escort team under mine requires a strong attacker for the mission.” “Attacker for the mission?” I asked out of curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rick said, “Yes, it’s not an ordinary escort mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time before the auction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The escort teams got attacked by unknown warriors several times.” “It happened whenever we escorted goods back to the auction building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each of the auction goods is a rare treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are expensive.” “Even if one of the items goes missing, it would cost heavily for the auction house,” Rick added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, I furrowed my eyebrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because it’s too hard to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crime is taking place in Star City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought it was a crime area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rick, are you serious?” “Who could attack the auction house’s escort teams?” “Won’t these crimes damage the reputation of Star University?” I asked questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rick revealed a bitter smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thinks that it’s the first time the young man has visited the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he stays here for a few weeks, he will know what’s going on here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can understand your questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But people causing problems are not outsiders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone is connected to Star University.” “For example, the local families here compete with each other for business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They do many shady things to put their opponent down.” “Star University can’t actively punish these people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As warriors from their families were studying in the Star University as well.” “Some of them belong to the top 10 factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the prestige of the top 10 factions echoes here as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it comes to fighting between their own people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Star University can do nothing much,” Rick said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, I felt my brain opened to new information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now I’m coming to understand why everyone is dying hard to join the factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Join any one of the university factors that can set a warrior life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially if their families are living in this city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their name could act as a deterrent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what’s with the auction house?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So are you suspecting that the unknown attackers are from these families?” I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rick’s eyes flash with approval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young man, you spotted it correctly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the problem is we can’t take any action against them even if we knew their identities.” “Because their heirs are members of the top 10 factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you want to accuse the top 10 Faction members, then you have to face their main elders as well.” “It complicates a lot of things,” Rick said with a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This?” I don’t know what to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because these families are attacking the Star University resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the action can be taken from the top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not from the bottom like they are trying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think now you have understood the problem,” Rick asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes,” I replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I thought of something and asked, “What am I supposed to do if they attack me?” Rick smiled and said, “That’s why I posed the task in Thunderflame Faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which is one of the top 10 Factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I doubt they dare to take action against you.” “This cunning man,” My eyes flashes with a glint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Aravind_S Creation is hard, cheer me up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>VOTE for
