1373 The Rescue Mission (2/2)
The previous Nether King's eyes turned cold. He picked up the fragments of the Nether King Halberd gathered by Ying Long and sent out his divine will. The fragments began to glow, then they gradually melted and turned into the halberd once again.
After that, he glanced at Ying Long and the many experts of Earth Prison's aristocratic families around them. Without saying anything, he took a step forward, rose into the sky, and rushed into the clouds. When he was in the starry sky, a jet of air shot out from his back, pushing him into the distance. He held the halberd in one hand as his killing intent swept out in all directions.
The silver warship was suspended in front of Nether Prison. Tian Cang was very familiar with the place. After all, he had once attacked it. Before long, he arrived at the boundless starry sky outside of Nether Prison. His eyes grew colder as he looked at the huge warship.
”Are you in there, Little Ha? Don't worry, dad is coming to rescue you.”
He slightly raised his chin, took a deep breath, and approached the warship. To his surprise, it did not have any defensive mechanism, and he was able to land on it. The floor felt soft under his feet, but there was toughness in it as well. There was no question that the ship was made with some divine-grade materials.
…
Inside the warship, a metal door opened. Ah Zhuang stepped through it, holding a large plate with a cloche on it.
Alpha sat at the wooden dining table. A white square of cloth was stuffed at his collar, which made him look graceful and noble.
Ah Zhuang put one hand behind him, bowed slightly with a respectful look on his face, and said, ”My lord, your True Dragon Steak with Secret Sauce is ready. Please enjoy it.” After that, he produced a silver sauce boat and poured the sauce in it over the steak, which sizzled in an instant. A rich aroma spread and permeated the whole room.
”It smells delicious… The fragrance of pure True Dragon steak is always so intoxicating,” Alpha said as a smile came over his face. He picked up his fork and knife and gently stirred the sauce over the steak, making it glitter and blend with the meat. Then, he cut a piece and brought it into his mouth with the fork. He narrowed his eyes.
”It tastes excellent! Ah Zhuang, your cooking skills have improved again. I don't regret spending so much money hiring you.” Alpha was very happy.
Hiss…
The metal door opened again, and the girl in revealing clothes walked out of it. Her eyes were as dead as two pools of still water, and like a puppet, she sat at the dining table. Ah Zhuang set a small plate in front of her and removed the cloche to reveal a small dragon steak.
Alpha cut another piece of dragon meat with the knife and stuffed it into his mouth. After wiping his lips with the cloth on his chest, he asked, ”Have you fed all my pets?”
The girl nodded with a blank face.
”Very good. You may eat now. This meal is your reward,” Alpha said, smiling.
The girl's eyes lit up when she heard the word 'eat.'
Ah Zhuang withdrew from the room. No one talked, and the only sound was the sound of eating and the scraping sound made by knives cutting at plates.
All of a sudden, Alpha's movements paused, and his eyebrows arched slightly. ”A bug is trying to intrude my warship? How could he disturb my meal…” He sighed. The next moment, his divine sense surged and spread out of the warship. After that, he continued to gracefully cut the dragon meat and enjoy it.
The movements of the girl sitting at his side were neither fast nor slow, equally graceful. However, when she put a piece of dragon meat in her mouth, she chewed at it rather fast. It showed that she had a strong desire for delicious food.
…
Tian Cang held the Nether King Halberd in one hand and walked slowly across the deck. According to the image shown over the jade talisman, Er Ha was trapped in this warship. However, it was really huge, and he was slightly shocked after seeing it up close. He didn't feel that when looking at it in the image, but when he was here in person, he realized how enormous it was. It was almost as large as Yellow Spring City. Of course, he knew that now was not the time to be shocked. His goal was to rescue Er Ha.
The previous Nether King narrowed his eyes and raised his hand. A clanging sound rang out as a muzzle emerged on the arm. The next moment, a crimson energy beam shot out of the muzzle, hitting the deck. He wanted to cut a hole in it so he could enter the ship.
Buzz…
An invisible fluctuation spread. Tian Cang felt that, and he abruptly moved to one side. The next moment, a metal puppet thrust a spear at the spot where he stood just now.
Tian Cang focused his eyes, while those metal puppets raised their heads, their mechanical eyes bursting into a red light.
Rumble…
The puppets were awake, and in a flash, they surrounded Tian Cang, drowning him with terrible killing intent.
