Novel Full Chapter 318 Stealing options
As the trio made their way towards the hanger bay, emerging from the shadows of the hallway were two figures with wooden masks obscuring their faces. However, their distinctive green hair made them easily recognizable. One of them spoke, his tone dripping with arrogance and disgust as he glanced at the charred and mangled remains of the creature Kevin and the others had just slain. “They were lucky this one wasn’t fully transformed.”
The other person nodded in agreement and spoke with an even more arrogant tone than his subordinate. “These weaklings don’t deserve to set foot in our forest. They treat it like a mere hunting ground. If they dare to return after this, they’ll learn why the den is called the forbidden area.” His voice, younger than the man who spoke before him, was filled not with disgust towards the creature, but towards the trio walking out of the corridors.
“Young lord, while I share your desire to eliminate these outsiders, our mission is to destroy the pestilent darklings and obliterate this ship,” the man said, casting a glance at the trio. “The commander has strictly forbidden us from harming outsiders who harbor no darkness within them.”
The young lord hesitated momentarily but eventually nodded in agreement. The other man nodded in return and reiterated, “Let’s depart now. The commander summons us to assemble at the ship’s command center for the final blow.”
Unaware of the silent observers witnessing their battle, the trio safely reached the hanger bay without encountering any further trouble. However, upon arrival, they found that the bay was notably sparse compared to when they had first arrived. Where once it had been filled with small crafts, now only a few remained, with some already in the process of departing the ship.
Their task now was clear: they needed to secure a ride from one of the remaining crafts or, failing that, take matters into their own hands and steal one of the vessels still present.
Unfortunately, their attempts to hitch a ride were met with rejection from the owners of the small crafts.
“We don’t have enough space for even one more person. Can’t take you all three,” one of them explained.
“We are headed in completely different directions than your destinations,” others offered as excuses.
Some simply rejected the trio outright, unwilling to take the risk of allowing strangers onto their ships, fearing they might be individuals responsible for the attack on the ships.
This frustrated Kevin immensely, prompting him to curse under his breath. “Fuck, how are we supposed to make them believe we’re not the ones who caused this all?”
Viana sighed, watching Kevin vent his frustration. Taking in their surroundings, she spoke with urgency. “I don’t know how much time we have until more creatures like that lanky thing arrive or until the ships blow up. We need to find a way out.”
“Talking about those creatures, many others seem to have encountered them,” Keyara added, her voice tinged with fear. “Some say they were stronger than body-strengthening realm cultivators.”
All three of them silently thanked whatever powers might be for sparing them from encountering a creature that powerful. If they had, they might not have survived the fight—or there might not have even been a fight at all.
The body-strengthening realm cultivators came after the Qi condensation stage, using condensed Qi to fortify their bodies. Even Qi cultivators like Viana followed this progression, as a strong body could store more qi and channel it better.
As thoughts of high-realm cultivators crossed his mind, Kevin couldn’t shake the image of Lidia. He was certain her cultivation surpassed anyone he had encountered in the world thus far. The only individuals who came close were the branch director of the emporium and his assistant.But this wasn’t the reason he was thinking about her.
‘What does she have to do with all this?’ he pondered silently, the question troubling him since the first blast tore through the ships. It struck him that the explosion occurred just after Lidia had called him to warn him to get out of the ship, implying she might have had prior knowledge of what was about to happen.
“What about your friend? Does she have a ship?” Keyara’s question jolted Kevin out of his thoughts. Unsure which friend she was referring to, he asked, “What friend?”
“The one you spent last night with,” Keyara clarified, prompting Kevin to once again ponder over Lidia.
“I don’t know,” Kevin shook his head, still grappling with the question of Lidia’s involvement in the chaos.
“Then ask her,” Keyara suggested.
But Kevin shook his head at her suggestion. Even though Lidia hadn’t explicitly told him not to call her, her abrupt ending of their last conversation was enough to indicate that she was in some sort of trouble. He didn’t want to escalate the situation by disturbing her further. So, glancing at the remaining ships in the hangar, he suggested, “Let’s just steal one.”
This time, both women hesitated to accept his suggestion, but with no other viable option, they nodded in reluctant agreement. Viana then asked, “So, which one do you want to steal?”
“I haven’t thought about it. Do you have any in mind?” Kevin asked, scanning the parked small crafts.
“How about that one?” Viana pointed to the ship just to their right. It was approximately 100 meters long and 60 meters tall, shaped like a wide lance head, slim at the front and widening towards the rear.
“Nah, it’s too big,” Keyara offered her assessment. She was right; stealing something larger would be much more difficult than stealing something smaller. She then presented her own selection by pointing to a ship a couple of meters in front of them. “We need a smaller one, like that.”
this small craft she pointed was the very unsual shape it was shaped like egg a giant egg od the size with 60 metter long and 40 or so meter in hight. It’s outer hall made of pristein silver metal that almost was ploished enough to be a mirror.
Both kevin and viana nodded to her choice and this time kevin asked. “now how we are gonna get in it?” Read Web Novels Online Free – NovelFire Novel Fire – novelfire.net
