2616 A Massive Tragedy 2 (1/2)

The officer on the receiving end of the news was not entirely convinced. ”Their Lord? Is it the imposter that everyone has been blabbering about? How did you manage to capture her so easily?”

”It is true. That was how the mermaids addressed her. We noticed that she seemed to have mastered some modern aspects of Kung Fu. She is also good with guns.”

”Rotate the camera toward her. I need to see her through the screen.”

”Yes, sir!”

Seconds later, the big screen in the cabin displayed the three mermaids and Gu Xijiu.

The officer's eyes lingered a little longer on Gu Xijiu's face as if studying an object. A moment later, an evil grin appeared on his face. ”I cannot tell how capable she is, but she is stunning! I am aroused. Send her here quickly! I need to take a better look at her. If I am happy with the girl, I will reward all of you!”

”Yes!”

The soldiers all went back to their respective positions, and the pilots started to maneuver the ship.

From the outside, any passerby could easily notice the drastic change in the ship's appearance. In just a few clicks, its entire exterior seemed to have transformed into something completely different than before. Soon, the ship rose into the air and flew swiftly towards the west.

As the ship was large and well-balanced, it did not take long for it to travel steadily. Once it did, the injured soldiers finally had the opportunity to treat their wounds. They could not stop cursing at the unpleasant experience. To make matters worse, all of their injuries were caused by their own guns.

Out of frustration, one of them lashed out, ”The woman moves incredibly fast! How did she know how to use our guns so precisely? I have not been hurt in a while, especially from a woman!”

”Yes, if she had not seized our guns, there was no way that she could hurt us. All our uniforms have the ability to shield us against all sorts of spells and magic. It is only the high-beam from these guns that can penetrate through our protective clothing.”
