Chapter 140 - Chapter 140: Chapter 134: A Powerful Enemy Has Arrived (2/2)

Eventually, the sailboat anchored on the coast of Karimun Island. They landed, mooring the ship with ropes at the edge of the beach, and under Erik’s direction, who possessed the “Craftsman” ability, the people of the Fischer family began repairing the vessel.

“Damn it!”

Aaron’s face looked ugly because his important subordinate hadn’t survived.

Although he was a brainless guy, he was still an important Extraordinary Exponent from the silver descendants clan, yet he had fallen overboard during the Shape-shifting.

He had asked Irene for the reason, but she replied that Byrne could only perform “Shape-shifting” on living beings without malice.

Aaron immediately understood that since Byrne did not agree with the raiding, that foolish guy must have harbored malice deep in his heart, no doubt the reason he had perished in the sea.

“How stupid!”

Byrne, Irene, Chris, Theo, Archibald, Erik, Aaron, Verne, the Abbott siblings, there were still ten Extraordinary Exponents left on the ship.

And some of the ordinary people on the ship had also died, thrown out of the ship as it was shape-shifted and fell into the water, or had broken their necks from crashing inside the ship, leaving a total of one hundred and fifteen people left.

“…”

By the beach, Chris stood calmly in front of Byrne, silent for a long time, his body completely recovered.

In the process of saving Byrne, a terrifying maw from the Spawn of the Abyss had torn his arm to shreds, and if it weren’t for his sister’s healing, he would have been permanently disabled.

Byrne lay quietly on the bedding brought out from the ship with his eyes closed, his body completely free of external injuries, but he still did not wake up, not even with Irene’s full effort in treating him.

The situation was strange, but Irene was certain that there was no risk of him dying, he just needed a lot of sleep.

“Chris!”

He suddenly saw Irene shouting at him, and immediately noticed the situation in the distance.

There was a ship!

It was being constantly harassed by the sea tribe on the distant sea surface. Although it was desperately heading toward the island, its body was already in tatters from the numerous sea tribe attacks.

And when the ship got a little closer, Chris saw more clearly that it was undoubtedly a Cyart sailboat.

As Byrne had fallen into complete unconsciousness, Irene decisively took over his command.

“Rescue them!”

She could see that there were Transmutation Level Extraordinary Exponents on that ship; dealing with the sea tribe was only a matter of time, and even if the ship were destroyed, those people could swim to this island.

Given that, there was no need for the Fischer family to hesitate any longer—better to carry out the rescue before the others landed on the island, and they might earn a favor in return.

Since those sea tribe posed no threat, being only lesser in strength, Chris walked into the water expressionlessly and swam over.

The rest of the Fischer family, whose physical fitness couldn’t match Chris’s, didn’t rashly enter the water but prepared for a possible battle on the beach with nervous vigilance.

After a while, the battered ship finally reached the shore, and people quickly disembarked.

The middle-aged man wore a black military uniform and had a square face and a very strong build, as robust as an ox, accompanied by a green-dressed woman as they both walked down from the ship.

“Brave men of Nasir, the Fischer family, we are extremely grateful for your help! We are the Vaughn family from Sunrise Lake, and I am Baron Vaughn!”

Baron Vaughn was a Middle Rank Transmutation Extraordinary Exponent, and his daughter standing next to him was a low-level Transmutation Extraordinary Exponent; besides them, they had eight more Extraordinary Exponents and more than two hundred family soldiers aboard their ship.

Their overall strength was stronger than that of the Fischer family.

Though the Vaughn family lived near Sunrise Lake, they actually depended on the Donnerklaue clan, one of the seven viscount families, and the Donnerklaue clan, not participating in the struggle between the lions and the eagles, had always remained neutral.

The two families got along well, jointly repairing the ships by the coast, but due to the mental shock from this massive defeat, everyone was full of exhaustion and confusion, silent and uncommunicative, with little interaction.

It wasn’t until the afternoon that a great will from the Lord of the Lost emerged in Irene’s mind!

[A formidable enemy has arrived]

She sharply turned to look at the sea again and, sure enough, could faintly discern a small black dot gradually growing larger in her field of vision.

Could these people be related to the Vaughn family?

Irene frowned at the Vaughn family and others, and then shook her head. If they were traitors, her Listening for Malice ability would have already been triggered.

She made a decisive judgment—it wasn’t enemies brought by them; it must be enemies tracking the Vaughn family!

Even with Byrne still deeply unconscious, there were still a Middle Rank and a low-level Transmutation Extraordinary Exponents among the Cyart people on the coast.

Besides, there was also Chris, who could easily defeat an ordinary low-level Transmutation, already climbing the ladder of a ‘Disguiser’, wielding the powerful rune power “Blade of Silver Radiance”.

Irene’s brow furrowed as she analyzed to herself:

“Even so, the arrival still counts as a formidable enemy for the Fischer family. Could there be a high-level Transmutation enemy on that ship?”

With Byrne still in a deep coma, she understood the heavy responsibility she had to bear, to help the Fischer family withstand the powerful enemy!
