Chapter 305: Chapter 305 The wrong person
"It looks like she had no clue who Larry Steel was after all," Nate said as he continued to look around the room .
Nate was hoping that perhaps someone as skilled as the Blood evolver would be well known . To the point where if he went around asking others from the same military school, they would have instantly recognized the name . This was why he continued to go about asking students from other military factions if they knew of the person named "Larry . "
So far there was no success . Out of all the students who were preparing for their events, the students taking part in the fighting tournament were the most cautious . Everyone there was trying their best to hide their abilities and instead was doing some other form of training .
This was because, if one knew the other person's ability before fighting them, it would be a big advantage . With nothing else to do, all Nate could do was wait for the first round of the tournament . There no one would be able to hide their abilities anymore .
"Hey, Larry, how are you doing bro?" A student's voice from behind was heard .
Instantly, Nate turned around hearing the name Larry . A medium-sized male student stood behind him, and looking at his uniform he could tell he was a first-year student .
'This has to be him . ' Nate thought .
Inching his way closer, Nate started to perform some lunges near the area . He did this so he wouldn't look so suspicious when coming towards the group of people and it also made sense since he was in the fighting tournament .
The two students, Larry and his friend were busy talking away when from the corner of their eyes, they could see what looked like to them, an idiot performing lunges . It was clear that for whatever reason, the person was trying to get closer to them .
"Can I help you?" Larry asked, not being able to take the awkwardness anymore . He felt embarrassed for the student .
"Oh don't mind me, I'm just warming up for the fighting tournament," Nate replied, after switching Legs and lunging his way closer to them again .
Ignoring the strange man, the group started to move away .
It looked like his plan had failed .
Seeing that his brilliant idea didn't work, he decided to just continue practising while looking at the two students . The two of them started to practice together, sparing, performing kicks and punches . It didn't look bad but it didn't look impressive either .
"So you're hiding your skills huh?" said Nate . "Don't worry, when you go up against me, you can use your full strength . No, I'll make you use your full strength .
Nate then started laughing to himself loudly as he thought of the upcoming fight . A rematch between him and the blood evolver .

It was morning and Quinn had trouble sleeping through the night . Every hour or so he would be woken up by the dreaded pain as his health continued to go down .
[21/95 HP]
It was important to keep this going for now as he needed to curb the addiction away . Sooner was better than later and then he would be able to get stronger once again using the different types of blood . The event was the perfect time to do this, as there were far too many people all over the place for him to do anything in secret anyway .
Before leaving the room, Quinn had placed his newly obtained armour into his dimensional space . After he decided to test out everything was working as it should have done and used his skill Shadow equip .
The boots, the chest piece and his gauntlets all appeared at once .
[Status]
[Level 18]
[10,750/25,600 exp]
[21/ 95 HP]
[Strength 23 (+7)]
[Agility 26 (+5)]
[Stamina 19 {+1)]
[Charm 24 (+1)]
[defence 27]
As the item description said, the chest piece added a stat point to each one of his different stats and also increased his defence . It was a shame that none of the equipment he had, also came with an active skill like the boots . However, he knew this was rare and hard to come by .
There was still a lot of exp to be obtained before reaching level twenty, the next step for Quinn in his vampire evolution . It would be difficult now since there were no more planned expeditions for the year to other portal planets . This was the easy way for Quinn to gain experience by defeating beasts for the first time .
If he was to fight some strong opponents in the tournament though, perhaps it would have helped him . But he knew that was near impossible . Quinn was still registered as the substitute, but it felt like something in name only . It was unlikely Peter would be able to escape from whatever they had planned .
He also looked at his inventory where the intermediate crystal could be seen . It was just the item he needed to create a short sword from the shop . When he got back, he planned to craft the gear and hand it over to Vorden . It was a good weapon but wasn't quite compatible with him using his blood skills, such as hammer strike or Blood spray .
He also thought it would be good for Vorden to have a weapon for himself, just in case he didn't have a good ability on hand to use .
To the left of his bed on top of the drawer was a little pamphlet . It continued the schedule of events for the day and what was being shown where . There was around an hour left before the first set of events had started and Quinn was wondering which one he should go to .
After looking at the long list, apart from the three main events none of them seemed too interesting for him . While scrolling through the list he managed to spot one called "Block, Block . " . He seemed to remember that the game he had participated in yesterday was called the same thing .
'Is it an event to do with the game yesterday?' He recalled playing and seemed to have quite some fun with the machine . Perhaps it was something he could enjoy watching before the main events .
*knock *Knock
"Hey Quinn, move your arse let's go!" Fex shouted through the door .
Putting his equipment back into the dimensional space, he took the pamphlet with him and answered the door .
"Hey, where's Vorden?" Quinn asked .
"I don't know I came to get you first," Fex replied .
When looking down the hallway they spotted Vorden coming towards them .
"Sorry about that, I had some things to deal with . " He said smiling .
"Any ideas on what you want to go see?" Fex asked .
"I was thinking about this . " Quinn pointed to the block, block event and the others were fine with it . Just like him, they were not really interested in anything apart from the main events anyway .
When the three boys left the hotel, the outside area was vastly different from before . It was a nice sunny day and the sky was blue with hardly any colours inside . It was the perfect day to have an event like this on .
Seeing the Sun though gave Quinn the chills . The ring protected him now from the sunlight's effects, but it was as if his mind naturally started to react to the fact the sun was so bright . Maybe a placebo effect that the sun still affected him in some way .
On the top platform, it was filled with both students and members of the public, unlike yesterday . Nearly all the stalls were busy and people looked to be having a good time playing games and eating food and such .
"I almost forgot that it wasn't just the military watching this event . " When Fex said these words he realized something . This might also be the perfect time for them to send someone after him .
He knew how good their information gathering was and they should have known where he was by now . In a way, being at the military base where no one knew where they were was a good hideout for Fex . But a place like this where it was open to the public, it was only a matter of time before he would be taken back .
He looked at Quinn and Vorden walked off into the crowd of people, heading towards the events .
"I might have to say goodbye to you soon . . . " He mumbled as he quickly followed after the two .
