Chapter 1442 An Intimidating Start… But So What?

… 

With Penelope’s command, operation Airport began. 

But just like the case in Carona, the many other empires were also ready to take action. 

For now, the airport project will only focus on Pyno. 

And only a year and a half after its launch will physical plans get drawn for the other treaty signed empires far from Pyno. 

There were several factors to consider, as well as several weather factors to look Into too. 

They in Pyno had a better understanding of their weather and were focused on mapping and aligning all records and ancient documents on Pyno’s hourly weather that had been recorded since ancient times. 

But of course, during this time, the astronomers and many others from the other treaty signed empires also worked hard on gathering information about their prospective empires too. 

And by the time airport talk in these empires begin, half the work should already be done. 

There was a lot to consider.

Thus, airport travel would only be in Pyno. 

Of course, another reason why Baymard continued to collect this information was In the future, their missions might take them through various unknown places across the world.

The more world data collected, the smoother their journey. 

Like so, the entire Pyno seemed to be filled with unprecedented vigor. 

From better sea travel, better road travel… And now, air travel. 

Hahahhahahah~

What more could they say?

They enjoyed this new age, wanting to benefit as much as they could for their future generations. 

Thus, they took the project seriously.

And just like them, many others had their own projects and missions to fulfill.

–2nd Baker’s Street, Capital City, Baymard–

The fresh smell of baked bread floated across the air, tempting all those walking along this street. 

2nd Baker’s street… One of the only 3 baker streets in Baymard’s Capital.

You would think having so many bakeries in one place would be a bad idea. But the truth was far from that.

Some customers in a rush didn’t want to wait in line for long. So they would leave their favorite ships and enter their 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th favorite.

Some liked items in many of these bakery stores.

So they would enter each of them, picking out what they like the most.

Prestige bites? 64% dark chocolate croissants, blueberry bread, honey bread, banana bread with a high of white chocolate cream shattered on it, whole wheat bread… And all the rest. 

One could buy their bread and sit inside the stores or have them on the go.

In short, all stores, be they on the left or ride side of the street, were always busy and shared similar customers amongst themselves.

They also had their signature bread, as well as their signature drinks too. 

The entire place smelt of freshly baked bread that gurgled everyone’s belly. 

And leaving one of these rowdy stores were men in ordinary, plain-looking attire. 

They dawned light black pants and vibrant shirts that were common for many to wear around these times. 

And on their faces were dark sunglasses, which didn’t make them stand out, seeing that many in the crowd also wore their headed sunglasses. 

The men bite into the bread in their hands, secretly acknowledging its deliciousness. 

Soft and Tasty. 

And this fact only made them frown even more. 

Even the food here was far better than theirs. So how could they not be angry?

They walked along the streets with their ears perked high, gathering any information that they could. 

And soon, they took the train, headed back to District D, and went straight into their hotel rooms. 

.

~Bam!

The doors were shut tight. 

Bone and Claw went straight into their bedroom chamber. 

And on the bed were the many items they had bought over their time here. 

However, stepping into the room, Bone suddenly froze.

”Check properly! Why do I feel that someone has been here?”

What? Did someone come in?

Impossible After leaving the sign, no cleaner will come in. Claw thought. 

This wasn’t their first day here. 

Over the past few days, they had tested this fact. 

If you put the do not disturb sign up, no one would come or knock on the doors. 

They had tested this in many ways. 

And besides, no one was looking for them or gas suspected them of anything, seeing that they weren’t followed. 

Even the many threaded traps they placed right before the doors were still intact. 

If someone had entered and weren’t aware of these, they would’ve long broken the thread.

But at the moment, it was still intact.

Looking at their balcony, they also made several traps there too. 

And even their balcony door was shut from inside. 

The only thing that was open by a few inches was one of the windows. 

Looking at the open gap, it was impossible for a human or even a dog to enter. 

That space was too tiny. 

And they were far high up on the 23rd floor! 

From all they knew about Baymard, they would never allow someone to climb their buildings. 

And besides, they had only left for 4 hours. 

So who would have climbed the building walls in broad daylight under the eyes of the bustling crowd below?

Impossible! 

Even if they did, there would be no way for them to enter the room. 

They kept the window open in that manner because closing all windows at all times would only make them look suspicious, as though they were hiding something. 

Plus, it was good to let fresh air circulate within the room.

In the end, all their traps were unbroken. So Claw greatly doubted his brother’s worries. 

But just to be sure… 

1, 2, 3… 

Clean. 

Everything was as they placed them. 

As hidden guards, their eye of observation was sharp. 

If they left even a toothbrush carelessly, their minds would note how everything was. 

Nothing was out of the ordinary. 

Claw frowned. “Brother, could you have made a mistake?”

”Well, maybe I’m overthinking it.” Bone replied, running his neck. “It might’ve been a bird that flew in through the window and left… Or maybe nothing at all.”

Apart from a bird, he didn’t see how anything could enter the room?

And the traps also showed how trustworthy these hotel cleaners were

 That is, even if an assassin broke the traps and reconstructed them, Bone would know if it was his work or not. 

But everything was okay. 

Sigh… 

’It must be the failure from our last operation that’s getting to me.’ Bone thought, sitting on the bed with a stoic expression. 

And just like Bone, Claw wasn’t in a laughing mood. 

.

Tick-Tock. Tick-Tock.

The hours flew by in a few blinks.

The sun was setting, and the moon began to rise. 

Some clocked out of work, while others clocked in. 

The last ‘Traffic-packed’ hour was as heavy as usual with the darkness in the sky. 

Some were also going to bars, while others headed to the cinemas, theaters, and circus acts. 

The night was busy for many. 

And it’s this business that allowed the dark forces to move with ease. 

And by the time the city regained its silence, Claw and Bone had already infiltrated the forest region right before the Lower Realm entrance. 

But rather than entering through the very front, they chose to try their luck from the sides. 

They knew the place was fenced.

But if they could go over this fence from an inconspicuous angle, half of their work should be completed. 

.

Midnight. 

~Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!~

The duo sped through the trees, making as little sound as possible. 

Their flash steps were precise, giving the illusion of them lightly gapping the soil. 

Their breathing noises were non-existent, and their momentum steady. 

And as they moved, they would paste for a while, have a lot around their surroundings, and confirm their inexposure.

In the early blanket of the night, the duo glanced at each other tactfully. 

So far, so good!

10, 20, 30, 49 minutes more, they had moved across the terrain. 

And soon, they began seeing the towering silver barred walls from a distance. 

Up on a tree, Bone squinted his eyes dangerously. 

’How very clever. Just as expected, they distanced the trees from the walls.’ He thought.

Like a monkey, Claw was also pitched up on a tree, taking in the site far ahead.

What an intimidating sight!

Just at the end of these rows of trees was a deep trench that gave the illusion that the Lower region was standing on a low rocky cliff. 

The trench was wide, long, and deep. 

But more dastardly was that the sides that the barred fences stood rested on were too steep and also covered with this impossibly smooth Baymardian Stone (cement.) 

It was too smooth.

Normal medieval stone surfaces had holes that they could use to ascend as high as they wanted. 

But these Baymardian ones were just too annoying!

Looking at the steep angle, climbing up towards the barred walls would be a nightmare!

But were they so easily deterred? 

Not a chance!

Bone and Claw sneered. 

”Let’s go, brother!”

”Right!”

They had already done their scouting and research.
