Dark Moon Era Chapter 66

Chapter 66
Giving the kill order had taken less than half a second, yet it had sent a group of people to the deepest part of the abyss .
It also marked the start of the countdown to his sister and his grandmother’s deaths .
Tragically, it really was nothing because to a high-ranking Purple Moon Warrior, the lives of ants did not matter . He might have stomped over a dozen ants just by walking a hundred meters outside .
Therefore, Tang Long would not treat the kill order as something serious because he certainly would crush this Purple Moon Warrior’s life like an ant . Stepping on an ant was really nothing big as long as he could be strong enough one day .
Blood reeked in Tang Ling’s throat, but he looked calmer than before .
Even the Purple Moon Warrior did not notice anything strange . He stood in front of the line and simply skimmed over the group of teenagers before he said, “Follow me . ”
His gaze was absent of superiority this time because should these teenagers pass the second round of the exam, they would be considered as half a Purple Moon Warrior themselves . Even if he was a high-ranking warrior, superiority was unnecessary .
The exam yesterday was the cruelest among all the previous exams .
Although no one knew how the higher rankings came to the decision to host such a brutal exam, those who could pass somehow proved their Genetic Chain Potential .
Therefore, there was a high chance for this group of teenagers to pass the second round .
There might even be surprises . Walking in front of the group, the thought popped up in his mind .
Tang Ling unconsciously glanced over at Amir as he wondered if he saw the despair that stormy night since he was also from the settlement . If he did, would he recognize this particular Purple Moon Warrior? How would he feel then?
However, Amir kept his head down . At least on the outside, there was nothing wrong with him .

Tang Ling did not give it much thought either, and he did not show much expression on his face either .

The inside of Glory Hall was much bigger than expected .
The architectural style was similar to its exterior . As they walked inside, they could observe the Ou Hai Continent architectural style from every corner . Complicated, yet elegant and grand, it filled the venue with an artistic vibe .
However, after going through the main hall, the intertwining corridors, the stairs, and the countless rooms, it made the place feel like a labyrinth .
If not for the Purple Moon Warrior leading the way, getting lost in Glory Hall might actually be possible .
The group walked for a full ten minutes until the scarlet-caped Purple Moon Warrior brought them to the highest floor of Glory Hall .
There were fewer rooms on the highest floor, only five to be exact .
Four out of the five rooms had huge metallic doors with complicated carvings over the planks . They seemed to be the offices of some important figures .
Only the last door out of the five was black and the material of the plank was unknown, but it stood out among the others . It was also the scarlet-caped Purple Moon Warrior’s destination .
When he reached the front of the door, it opened and Fei Long came out . He nodded calmly at the Purple Moon Warrior . “Thank you, Arhan . ”
The Purple Moon Warrior known as Arhan seemed pleased after receiving Fei Long’s nod of gratitude . He saluted respectfully before leaving with a solemn look .
“Hmph . ” Chuckling deep in his heart, Tang Ling turned around for a glimpse of Arhan’s back . He etched the name deep in his mind together with those sinister deep eyes, crooked nose, and gaunt cheeks .
“Come in . ” Fei Long stepped aside and invited the group of curious teenagers inside .
He was wearing casual clothes today . Those who did not know him might not know who he really was, but after the exam yesterday, he had appeared before the public eye and even argued with Su Yao before ultimately leaving .

The nervous teens saw someone they were familiar with . Combined with Fei Long’s casual and somewhat friendly manner, they were slightly at ease .
“That kid seems a little distracted . Did Su Yao quietly test his potential?” As the others swarmed in the room, Fei Long was keeping an eye out for Tang Ling since he liked and had anticipation for this teen .
However, Tang Ling turned back with a nonchalant look, and it caused Fei Long to misunderstand .
As a matter of fact, Tang Ling had never tested out his potential, and Su Yao did not even tell him the contents of the second exam . He had no idea what he must do . He just felt that it was strange that the room was so dark and it felt like he had walked into a bottomless pit after entering it .
It was as if all the light had been absorbed, so he could not even see the others in front of him . He had to rely on the sound of their breaths and footsteps so as not to bump into each other .
“I’m sorry . I forgot to switch the lights on . ” The lazy, hoarse voice of a man echoed from the dark room .
Following the voice, soft light finally bathed the room .
A man in a long white robe suddenly walked out from behind a huge machine . He scratched his messy hair . Albeit apologizing, he did not look or sound like he was truly sorry .
The black door was closed . Fei Long then stared at the man with a vexed look . “Yang Kong, I just stepped away to take the young ones here . It’s been less than half a minute and you fell asleep?”
Sleeping even for half a minute? Tang Ling could not help but spare an extra glance at the man named Yang Kong as he was sizing up the room .
His tuft of hair was a messy mix of black and white while his white robe was dirty and his beard was untrimmed . He was wearing an item from the old civilization, a pair of sunglasses . Even though he was rather pleasant-looking, he reeked of mess and dirt .
“I’m very busy . I sleep based on my mood,” Yang Kong simply replied Fei Long . The way he spoke was disordered too as the logic and sequence were messed up .
Is this man the leader of the Purple Moon Warrior? Tang Ling wondered . Su Yao did tell him before that the invigilator would be the leader of the Purple Moon .
Then, Fei Long walked to the front and said, “The second exam will be held here . If anyone of you can pass and graduate from the First Reserved Camp, you’ll become a Purple Moon Warrior under me . And he, Yang Kong, will be your most important theory mentor in the First Reserved Camp . ”
The moment Fei Long’s words subsided, other than Yu, Orston, and Tang Ling, the others instantly looked solemn and respectful .
This casual and kind man was the leader of the Purple Moon Warriors, meaning that he was the strongest Purple Moon Warrior .
This mentor, their most important mentor, was also a very important figure in their upcoming lives .
He’s the leader? Tang Ling might not respect him as much as others, but when he thought of the argument between him and Uncle Su Yao yesterday and how he left in a weird manner, he felt strange .
At least, Fei Long was not cold, merciless or reeked of superiority .
Of course, Fei Long could not read Tang Ling’s mind, so he quickly announced the content of the second exam, “The second exam is simple . You don’t need to do anything, but if you want to pass, you must get through this . ”
He then pointed at the large machine in the room .

The Legend of the Fake Hero
*I don't own the cover image**This has the Tragedy Tag; please no genre hate. Bad things can happen to good people, just like in real life (not that they will. I almost didn't put the tag there as it doesn't really fit the genre. I like happy endings.).The year is 201X, and the line between reality and the imaginary has become blurred. Approximately nine months ago, the event which became known as "The Convergence" occurred. People on Earth began to obtain powers. Some received them for seemingly no reason while others had obtained them after they had returned from the many different worlds that they had unwillingly been abducted to. These new worlds existed beyond time and space, and many could have different rules different from what we know as standard reality. That is because these many worlds seem to have traits taken from imagination. Things from stories and myths, like magic and plots, existed in these worlds as if they were inspired by them, and that was only a start.On earth, there was a young man. On appearance, he could be considered only slightly better-than-average. The only thing he was known for was his incredible mind that left him feeling bored and out of touch with reality. But soon he would leave this reality altogether. One moment he was lying in his bed. The next, he was face-to-face with a beautiful young lady who he had just woken up upon him falling into her bed. This young man has an incredible fate and will soon visit many worlds, gain many powers, and meet many women who, like the young girl whose bed he had fallen into, will blow him away.Upload Schedule (Updated 3/28/2021)Upload one chapter every-other-weekend PST (with rare exception, typically due to length).Breaking Fate/Origin Arc (Done) Albion Arc: Vol 1 - Origin, Vol 2 - Rise of the Red Dragon (Done) New Earth Arc: Vol 3 - New Earth (Done) Dealing with the Past Arc: Vol 4 - Ghosts of the Past, Vol 5 - The Dracul Descends, Vol 6 - War of FateBound Fate Arc Fake Hero Arc Vol 7 - Martel Side Stories #1 Shield Hero Arc Vol 8 - Second Chance Vol 9 - The Adventure Begins (Current) Vol 10 - First Quest Vol 11 - TBD (Writing [37%]) (Multiple Future Volumes TBD)Currently ONLY posting on Scribble Hub, Royal Road, and Wattpad (Same user name)If you find my work on other sites please let me know!

You Only Smol Twice: A Smol Detective Story
This is a fanfic set in the universe of They Are Smol, a delightful series of stories by TinyPrancingHorse which you should totally go and read. It’s the third in my own series about a human investigator in a galaxy full of aliens who are much bigger and stronger than any human. Obviously, there are plenty of spoilers for the previous two stories in here so consider yourself warned. After many successful investigations, Oscar Williams has his loyalty to his adopted alien family sorely tested. What appears to be a simple theft turns out to be anything but, and to capture the perpetrators Oscar might just have to betray his own species… Formal Disclaimer: I do not take credit for the original setting, this story is set in an alternate version of the 'They are Smol' universe, written by the one, the only TinyPrancingHorse TPH takes many forms and is known by many names. He is like Nyarlathotep, only smaller and cuter and more prancey. TPH also has a website should you require more Smol Shenanigans in your life. Which you do, so get over there and read it.

Sarsaparilla's Scary Super Power. Completed
Sarsaparilla is an older teenage girl living on Mars. And, like many other young people around her, she has a super power. Or, rather, she is supposed to have a super power. Only she has never been able to activate it, she doesn’t even know what her super power is. This annoys her, tremendously. But she hides this behind a really sweet smile. Adalace is another teenage girl, also on Mars. She knows what her own super power is, and it is quite a good one. She is also really cute… so long has she keeps her feelings under control and doesn’t let out anything from her dark past. Teylon is a man, currently living on Earth. He likes to think of himself as still young, even if he is over fifty. He’s a bit smug about his successful career and is thinking of retiring… until a sadly unfortunate event leads him to the conclusion that he had better immigrate to Mars. Immediately. Apparently, meeting one’s own Angel of Death tends to cause people to make profound changes to their lives… Mars society had better brace itself, because once these three people, plus another three also not so quite stable individuals, collide with each other, the resulting explosion is not going to leave anyone on Mars unaffected. This is another Esmeralda, the Angel of Death, story. It follows on from my previous two such stories, but it is in no way dependent on the previous stories. They can be read in any order. It is fully written and proof read (using Word for Windows, no real editor touched this transcript) and comes to about 247,000 words (about 895 Royal Road pages). It is organized into 50 chapters and I will be publishing them roughly one per day. In my writing, there are multiple characters and multiple points of view. Each change in a point of view is introduced by a header, giving the viewpoint character’s name first, and possibly a title. Inside a Point of View section, dialog in italics represents the Point of View character’s thoughts, while dialog between quotes represent normal spoken dialog. This story is very much inspired by the anime A Certain Scientific Railgun. However I have only taken some elements from the anime, and changed everything I took to make my own story, and so it does not count as fanfiction. Yeah, I know, the book cover page isn’t very good. It’s the best I could do, by tracing over a stock image. The two ladies shown are supposed to be Adalace and Sarsaparilla. Ideally I would have liked there to be two images of this pair, one where they are smiling sweetly and looking cute, and one where they are looking really angry and dangerous. But that totally exceeds my graphics abilities. You will just have to imagine it.
