All of a sudden, Erian's vision changed. The surrounding walls were instantly stripped off their color and visibility as they immediately turned see through. This wasn't the first time Erian successfully used this ability and he had thought he wouldn't be successful, but it actually worked this time!
Elated, he smiled brightly as he stared at the now see-through building. He immediately noticed a location where his x-ray vision couldn't see. Almost at the same time, two popping sounds echoed along with the spurting of blood and bodily fluids in the air. His eyes had exploded.
Sure enough, he still failed. "I lasted five seconds this time." Erian grinned brilliantly, the cells in his eyes rapidly generating new tissues and not a even five minutes later, both of his eyes were fully healed. He morphed back into his human form.
Despite the incredible size of the mansion, Erian's was able to accurately remember the exact spot where his X-ray couldn't peer through. After numerous twists and turns, he finally entered a large and well decorated and triangular looking bedroom.
Opposite the door, was the air-bed which was installed at the angle point of triangular room. From what he remembered, the location of the safe should be behind one of the walls.
There should be some sort of hidden mechanism to open the path to the safe, but Erian's wasn't a particular patient person.
His arms trembled with incredible strength as he punched at the wall.
"Bang!"
Spiderweb shape cracks spread across the entire wall before it burst apart into pole of bricks and rubbles, revealing the hidden vault.
The vault was actually big unlike one would expect. It was actually three meters tall and seven meters wide when Erian pryed it out out of the wall and it was considerably well built as the metal casing was incredibly hard. A glass like platform was at the surface of the vault which was the omly means to open the vault.
"Seems like a genetic lock." Erian muttered, looking a bit disturbed. The genetic lock is a security system that eevn the strength of Triple super gene titan is unable to unlock, not to mention him with barely the strength of a Single super gene.
Suddenly, Erian frowned slightly. The indicator on the lock was still green which meant it wasn't in on a permanent lock meaning the owner of the Vault was still alive and within the kilometer range of the mansion instead.
"He's still here?" He had searched the entire mansion with his xray sight and only saw severed skeletons and bodies but didn't see anyone intact and alive. If there was, the large snake should have consumed them to build its nuclear energy.
The only place he couldn't see through was the inside vault and which means there was actually someone alive within the vault. This made Erian feoen as it was going to be incredibly difficult getting the person within the vault to open up. He or she had most likely stock up enough food to last a few months or even a year depending on the person.
Just as Erian was wondering on how he should open the vault, his ears flickered and his eyes seem to peer through the wall as he listened. "There's someone else here."
He immediately lowered his breathing and waited. The soft sound of footstep in the silent mansion was like a one beating a drum. While it was soft, the silence in the mansion made it sound loud.
The foot step got closer and closer to Erian's location. About a hundred meters away from each other, the footstep suddenly stopped and a light giggle echoed from the hall way.
Erian's eyes twitched and he immediately retreated back. From the walls, a bullet pierced through the wall like it was made of clay, pushing towards Erian with incredible speed. In the nick of time, he managed to shift his head. A bit if his hair fell off as the bullet grazed past his head.
"Don't you find it embarrassing hiding from a lady?" The voice sounded like the chirping of birds and twinkling bells all together as they bounced off the wall, caressing Erian's ears. Erian felt his heart slightly moved.
He raised an eyebrow. Her attainment in the female tactics was definitely higher than when they had met. He responded back. "Nothing is embarrassing at the face of danger."
"Are you saying I'm dangerous? I don't think you have anything to worry about Erian, I think you are far more dangerous than you let on."
Erian was slightly surprised she was able to recognize who he was despite his effort to conceal himself. He exited the room, closing the door behind as he dusted his shirt.
"What are you doing here? Keira." He asked, keeping his expression incredibly casual. The vault was still in the room, he didn't want anyone getting to know that there was actually a vault within the mansion as things would get increasingly difficult.
The had discussed previously on the train, but it was only a light discussion. He didn't think he would meet her again so soon with how enormous the entire city was.
Keira's hair swayed as she stepped towards Erian. "I think you know why I'm here."
Erian stared at the gun in her hand and frowned at how brazen this girl was. The confidence she exuded was alarming as though she wasn't afraid of him nor anyone. He couldn't understand where she got her confidence from as even be with his carefree attitude, still had to be cautious especially since they weren't at the academy any longer. She is most likely confident in her strength. But this made Erian laugh coldly inside. It doesn't matter what she relied on but if she dared pull any tricks, he wouldn't hold back either.
"You should go back. Since I found the vault first, it belongs to me Now. You wouldn't want to fight me over it right?"
Keira footsteo slowed and she stopped about ten meters away from Erian. From the stilled flow of air in the hall way, the fragrance caused by the female tactic passively in her body wafted into his nose.
Her large eyes stared directly at Erian, maintaining the eye contact for what seen to be a minute before she let out a slight giggle and backed down.
"There's no need to be hostile. Since you know about the vault, then it's yours. But the vault uses a Genetic Lock, and is likely resistant to forces less than 30,000 Newton. Do you have a way to open the vault?" The arrogant smirk on her face returned as she asked.
Erian's eyes narrowed. How did she even know the vault was here and exactly how did she know the type of lock it was using?
"Why don't we do this, I help you unlock the vault and I get half of the items inside."
Erian stared at her, his face in a slight frown as thoughts flickered through his mind, then he spoke indifferently. "You should go back."
Erian cerebrated over his conversation with Keira. Her idea for them to cooperate was actually very enticing. Her plans to raid the treasures of the rich folks was even more enticing to Erian who really needs nuclear energy to boost his strength. With the connections of her family, she has all of the information about the various wealthy families within the city including the mayor's mansion and the council members houses. But those are off limit since the second year and third year would fight for it, definitely not let it be taken from them.
But in this type of academy, one couldn't be overly too careful which was why he told her he would think about it.
She is obviously from a well off family since she her family could help with such information over this little bit of time that had trespassed. If Erian wished to obtain such information, he would need to buy the information from the academy for an astronomical amount of price; a million blood points, something Erian lacked at this point.
Autonomously clicking his fingers to the arm rest, he stopped deliberating and typed a message.
[Erian: Undeniably a beneficial suggestion. How do we share the loot?]
Soon, Erian's phone vibrated as a message notification popped up.
[Kiera: I'm glad I get to work with the Prime. No need to share loot, if you grab it first, you own it. With your strength we this should be easy, happy cooperation.]
Erian squinted his eyes, she slightly indicated that she would depend entirely on his protection, in exchange for the information she possess, but Erian knew it definitely wasn't as simply as she claimed it was. But no matter the situation that pop up in the future, he wasn't afraid. While he hadn't familiarized himself with some of his techniques, he was most confident in his strength. In the face of absolute strength, all tricks are rendered useless.
