Chapter 483: Suicide

Suicide?

Xiao Lin did say ‘suicide’.

Everyone immediately understood it after thinking for a bit. As one of the nations that used to be subservient to Dawn Academy, the kingdom had resurrection towers within it; resurrection towers were basically the mascots of the academies.

Since they were within the area of a resurrection tower, then dying would only cost them 20 years of their lifespan. They would be resurrected next to a tower. That was Dawn Academy’s biggest trump card to stabilize their rulership, but seeking death voluntarily to escape difficult situations was a way to use it as well.

However, everyone found it hard to accept suicide. Han Manman was the first to question it. “Do we really need to go to the degree of suicide? It’s only a monthly examination. Putting aside whether or not we can complete it, rewards aside, we’d be throwing away twenty whole years of our lives!”

“It’s true; it seems to be a good way to escape, but we don’t have to go that far. Once we recover, escaping won’t be a problem.” Zhang Shengguo agreed with Han Manman.

The other monitors did have more neutral views, but the fear of suicide was not something they could easily overcome. They also felt like Xiao Lin was making a big deal out of nothing.

The arguments in the prison cell were within Xiao Lin’s expectations. He remained quiet as he listened to everyone’s reservations and objections. When everyone else stopped, he slowly said, “I understand your concerns. In truth, I’m also a bit afraid of the idea of suicide. Who would do that if they didn’t need to! I’m just afraid, I’m scared that we will never be able to escape if we lose out on this chance!”

“Alarmist words!” someone retorted.

“Do you have any proof?”

“Yes, who’s heard of Asabanor?” Xiao Lin suddenly said.

“Asabanor? Who’s that?”

There was a brief moment of silence.

“He’s the former high priest of Thunder Kingdom.” Class Six’s Li Jiayi was quite versed in information. She helped explain the priest’s past to the others.

Xiao Lin nodded. “It’s more or less like that, but the high priest actually did not die. He has a grudge against our academies, and used all sorts of ways to destroy us. I suspect that this was a scheme by him. At least, he definitely has a part in this.”

That was actually a conclusion he had reached via process of elimination. Everything that had happened in the past two days showed that they were being schemed against. If he had an enemy in the New World, then it could only be Asabanor, that old undying priest. If all of this was not arranged by the academy, then it could only have been that high priest’s plans.

“Asabanor can control the bodies of others. I think we’re currently being locked and ignored because the ones that captured us are waiting for their master to arrive, which is why we can still escape now, but it will be too late if Asabanor arrives.”

Xiao Lin smiled bitterly. Asabanor was very well versed in necromancy. The mysterious spirit he saw the last time he came to the New World had alarmed Xiao Lin. He did not expect Asabanor to be so persistent. Everytime he came to the New World, he noticed traces of that priest.

Of course, Xiao Lin hoped that his guess was wrong as well, but he did not dare take the risk.

The other monitors were naturally unfamiliar with Asabanor, and what had happened to Xiao Lin before was all classified. He could not easily reveal it. Xiao Lin could only say, “To be honest, if it was not for the fact that the academy’s latest information showed that the resurrection towers in the Rosa Kingdom are still fine, I would not have thought of this plan at all. Basically, with a fifty percent chance, I would suggest that everyone does it, but no matter what, I won’t force anyone.”

The arguments continued for a long time, until everyone started starving. They noticed that no one was sending in any food or drink. Unless their captors planned on having them starve to death, it was possible that it was just as Xiao Lin said; their captors were just in charge of guarding them. Anything else would have to wait for the true mastermind’s decision.

Finally, someone started to think about Xiao Lin’s suggestion. “If we’re killing ourselves, how will we do it?”

Xiao Lin had not said anything after the initial decision because he had seen a rock in the corner. After a long time, he had managed to sharpen the rock. When someone asked, he raised the rock, which glinted in the darkness.

“I’ll leave first then. Bye bye!” Xiao Lin smiled as he said. Not many people had the courage to commit suicide. He was actually very nervous. He was even more concerned for Ibeiya. He did not know if she had been captured or if she had escaped.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Lin relaxed his muscles as much as he could, or he would not be able to guarantee that a rock of that degree could pierce his strengthened skin. Not waiting for anyone to speak, the sharp stone glinted before piercing into his heart.

Pop!

Large amounts of blood began to gush out. Xiao Lin clenched his teeth tightly, not letting himself scream. He did not know if there was anyone standing guard outside, and did not want to expose himself.

Death was really unpleasant. His entire body burned with intense pain. Thankfully, his consciousness faded, and after a large amount of blood escaped him, Xiao Lin quickly passed out. His body turned cold before it started to go transparent. After that, it shattered into various star-like spots, drifting into the air before disappearing.

Everyone else was dumbfounded. It was the first time they had seen a resurrection in front of them. They more or less had to show some respect for Xiao Lin’s decisiveness but, as for who would do it next, everyone looked at each other before falling into silence.

Even though the torture before dying felt like years to Xiao Lin, when he suddenly opened the eyes again, it felt like only a second had passed.

He was lying down on the smooth stone platform at that moment. Next to it was a silver resurrection tower. Only after seeing the resurrection tower did his heart relax. He only dared to take that gamble because he believed in Dawn Academy’s report that the resurrection towers in the Rosa Kingdom were unharmed.

It was not that he was worried that the rebels would destroy it. They would never do that unless they were willing to stand against Dawn Academy, but Xiao Lin was worried about Asabanor. He did not forget what happened in Wildfire Town with that rotten and non-functional resurrection tower. That was why when he saw the silver resurrection tower, Xiao Lin felt incredibly relaxed.

Xiao Lin climbed off the stone platform and started to move about. His strength had recovered. It seemed like the restrictions on them were only physical, and it disappeared after resurrecting.
