The shadows of the old world, the tides of the new era. Light and darkness, chaos and dawn... arise alternately in a world of machinery and witchcraft!
But what does this have to do with me, ...
Of course Lucille believed everything her mentor said, but she didn't understand why the fight broke out.
"Isn't it a good division like this? We don't have to fight anymore, and it won't attract the attention of the guards outside." Lucille said.
"It's really good, but sometimes... no, I should say that most of the time it's impossible to be so rational. Fighting itself is irrational. Do you still expect them to talk amicably?"
Sean continued to teach Lucille some principles of how to behave in society.
I didn't think I was that bad, so why did Lucille become so notorious after more than a decade...
That's all.
Anyway, it's better for her to become more capable than anything else.
They already knew each other's glory, and Sean didn't intend to change anything, and the established future could not be changed.
Judging from past experience, it may be because you want to change that the future becomes what it is, so just follow its process.
Just answer whatever Lucille asks!
"I don't quite understand," Lucille said.
Because the people in the warehouse moved, the situation inside could no longer be seen from here, so the two of them had to follow them, otherwise they would not catch up.
From the back of the warehouse all the way to the front...
I can see the crowd in the distance.
"Keep your head down, or we'll see you." Sean pressed Lucille's head downstairs.
It's best to walk in a crouched position so you won't be noticed.
After walking a few steps,
This should be it.
Anyway, the warehouse is not big, it's only this long distance from the back to the front. If you go a little further, the other party should be right below.
"I'll do it this time, mentor." This was probably the first time Lucille had ever been on this kind of stalking trip with Sean. Her excitement hadn't diminished throughout the trip, otherwise she wouldn't have asked so many questions.
When I saw Sean carefully opening the tiles, I wanted to try it myself.
"Okay. You can do it yourself..."
Sean let the other person do it.
I saw the other party gently lift the roof tiles, and then cut off a part of them with the magic he had just used.
The movements were very light, mainly to prevent being noticed by the people below, but based on Sean's experience, the people below may not have the energy to estimate the situation above, so it's almost time for a fight to start.
As Lucille opened the hole wider, the situation inside the warehouse reappeared...
The five people had arrived at the door of a place where things were piled up, and the door had been opened, but they were the only ones standing outside.
"That's it. I'm sure you two are here for it, right? Actually, we didn't quite understand why it was so valuable at first. Besides the fact that it does have a slightly cold aura, there's nothing else to it."
The three pointed inside the warehouse.
At this moment, behind the door, the part covered with cloth had been opened, revealing a purple crystal as big as Ruyi's waist.
It's quite big, and feels heavy when you knock it.
No wonder these three people said that they would not use this method if the price was not too high... It is indeed difficult to transport, and very difficult to transport.
It feels like a huge rock pressing down on me. It's hard to carry it even with a horse-drawn carriage. If I use an airship, I might have to clear a lot of things and use the turnstile to carry it away. Crystals of this size are really hard to transport.
"As you two have seen, we simply hope to obtain it through normal means. We don't really have any other ideas."
The three of them probably already understood Ash and Steele's identities as members of the Bashalan Empire...
Normally, they are the only ones who would pursue the Borg relentlessly.
Otherwise, the other party wouldn’t know all the information!
Ash ignored the three people's words and this time looked at the purple crystal...
The color is very beautiful, but from my professional point of view, the quality is still not top-notch. It is more like a stone with a purple core. Even if it is processed and polished, it is not as delicate and beautiful as other gems.
The other party is targeting this thing simply because of the power it contains.
Reaching closer...
Sure enough, there was a cold feeling.
The small pieces that were knocked off before didn't feel that strong, but now when the big pieces were knocked off, I feel the coldness is very sharp and I don't even dare to touch it.
But the magical thing is that this coldness is only limited to the crystal itself. You will feel cold when you touch it, but it does not emit too much cold air to the outside.
Even in a small place like a warehouse, everything around is normal.
There should be a cold wind, there should be a frozen place, but nothing appears...
This strange phenomenon also made Steele curious. Any wizard should be able to find the weirdness in it. This is simply the flow of energy, not an ordinary hot or cold phenomenon at all.
Since no cold air is emitted to the outside, the claim of freezing is not valid.
Obviously, the three of them had just lied.
It's just that these three people don't seem to realize that they have made a mistake at this time.
"Well, my two wizards, we were right, weren't we? This is indeed an ordinary crystal, but it's special because it comes from the deep sea... We simply want to use it to decorate the princess's wedding palace, nothing else."
"So you are quite loyal," Steele replied with a smile.
"Being able to share His Majesty's worries is our duty as subjects and what we should do."
The three of them thought Ash and Steele believed it.
That would be easy. Being able to obtain things without fighting is obviously the best outcome. Otherwise, if a fight breaks out, none of the three of them will be able to win.
"That's right, Borg's lackeys!" Steele subconsciously uttered the harsh words, and before the three of them could react, he turned around with his gun fired.
The long shaft pierced a Borg soldier's chest...
His face was filled with shock, and he probably would never believe until his death that the other party would attack without any warning.
"Do you think I'm as stupid as you? These things can't create the ice pools you mentioned. They don't emit cold air."
The soldier who was pierced only noticed this at this time...
It was originally an excuse that one of them came up with on the spur of the moment, without considering whether they could be connected. It was not until the other person mentioned it that they felt there was a problem.
Unfortunately it's too late.
Steele kicked a Borg soldier, and he fell down. The two men below him tried to dodge but couldn't get out of the way immediately...
The sweep still passed through the chests of the two men.
When he jumped out, the wound had already started to bleed.
Ash on the other side was not idle either. He cast his luck magic directly at the chests of the two men, obviously intending to kill them with one blow.
"You forced me to do this. If we can't get it, you can't get it either!"
He roared and the power around him burst out.
Even though he was attacked by the opponent in the next second, he still did not stop!
Boom!
He threw a punch, this time with a lot of power.
The sound was so loud that it was obviously going to attract the attention of people outside!
"Lucille is ready to grab something!"
Seeing that time could not be delayed any longer, Sean gave the order.
