Chapter 354 - Continued (1/2)

Jin Wang was standing by the window staring out into the dark night when Hao Xuan came up behind him. He turned to face him and frowned.

”Where's the cat and the octopus?”

”Eating. Too much trouble to drag them away right now. It's fine,” Hao Xuan waved his hand in displeasure, he really didn't want to talk about it and Jin Wang took the hint so he pointed towards the window.

”Looks like there's quite a few of them this time.”

Hao Xuan walked closer to the window and peered outwards. It was completely dark and there was nothing visible even with the occasional lightning strikes. He looked at Jin Wang with a confused expression.

”I don't see anything...”

”Oh I forgot, my bad. Here,” Jin Wang tapped his spirit band and a connection was created with Hao Xuan's. It was a request for access to the ships internal system, already accepted and being offered to Hao Xuan. When he clicked accept, a hologram was projected above the watch.

It showed three ships of the exact same model and around them were more than 50 smaller vessels. They were less than 1/10th in size but their numbers more than made up for it.

”Are all these pirates?”

”Yeah.”

That projection was currently being shown to every individual that was synced up with the ship's internal systems. All of that data was being sent to their spirit bands in real-time. The little ships kept circling around the three big ones, firing energy blasts in the same 5 spots.

”These spots are where the barrier is the weakest. Once there is a hole in the barrier they will usually send in the armed pirates to pillage and take away whatever they can.”

Hao Xuan nodded. He looked left and right but there was no one other than them standing in the entire hallway.

”Where is Alte and the others?”

”They are bodyguards. Where do you think? by her side of course.”

”So what's the plan then? What do we do?”

”Not much we can do until they come over here,” Jin Wang shrugged.

”So we just wait for them?”

”More or less.”

*Pheeew*

Just as Hao Xuan was about to make another comment, something whizzed past their window, yet Hao Xuan was quick enough to catch a glimpse of it. It was a ship, only about 80 meters in size. There weren't any weapons on it and it looked like a transport vessel that was carrying a lot of people.

”Damn, that was fast!”
