Chapter 1065: Energy Core (1/2)
“0542, trace their position now! Find out where they are jumping to!” Jiang Fei snarled. These men were the ones that forced Isabella to enter the Berserk state. It was a fault that Jiang Fei could never forgive. An offense that was so hateful that Jiang Fei could feel it in his bones.
“Tracing target’s jump point…” 0542 responded immediately and began its tracing system.
While it was carrying out Jiang Fei orders, Jiang Fei zoomed toward Isabella as quickly as he could. Moving quickly underwater was extra hard for him since there was no solid ground for him to kick off.
The whirlpool that she made was gone now but that did not mean that Isabella herself was not a danger to all. There was still a chance that Isabella, in her state of Berserk, could not recognize Jiang Fei. The power she held in this state had traces of Valium properties. Jiang Fei would be exposed to lethal attacks that he might never recover from.
“Bella! ISABELLA!” Jiang Fei roared from the top of his lungs. Whether she could hear his voice or not, Jiang Fei dared not approach her in this state. However, he sure that at his current distance, Isabella would be able to hear his voice.
“Hah… Hah…. Ughh….”
Isabella breathing was ragged. Steam could be seen coming out from her entire body. Her surrounding temperature was akin to a bombing temperature, capable of instantly vaporizing all the water around her, thus creating a large void in the middle of the deep sea. She, on the other hand, was floating in the center of it all. Jiang Fei tried to enter the pocket of air but was immediately burned. The temperature was so extreme that even he could not enter without protection.
“Isabella! Calm down! I’m safe now! Nothing can harm me! Control your powers! You need to put a stop to the Power of Berserk!” cried Jiang Fei when he saw Isabella was violently trying to escape her trance state. She was screaming, writhing in pain as she struggled to take control of her mind and body.
Concurrently, 0542 returned with a report about the enemies’ position.
“Captain, I have failed to trace the enemy’s jump point. There is a powerful electromagnetic interference caused by Isabella.”
“F*ck! The people that did this are going to pay…” Jiang Fei barked. However, there was no time for him to dwell on that matter anymore. Isabella was still unable to control her powers. He needed to try his best to stop Isabella as every second she spent in the state of berserk, the more damage she would do to herself.
“Bella!” Jiang Fei cried louder when he suddenly noticed seawater pouring back into the air pocket. The temperature was dropping fast. That could only mean that Isabella’s power was calming down! It took some time but after 5 minutes, the air pocket shrunk. Seawater gushed back to fill the void but Isabella was still in an unstable state. Although she was no longer emitting powerful heat, it was still sufficient enough to boil the surrounding water around her. It took another 10 minutes before she calmed down and was cool enough for Jiang Fei to support her.
“How do you feel?” said Jiang Fei.
“Better, now that you’re safe and sound,” said Isabella. She was incredibly tired and overwhelmed by fatigue.
“It’s all you. You saved me,” said Jiang Fei before he stroke Isabella’s still feverish forehead.
Isabella smiled weakly, not wanting to talk anymore. Jiang Fei was fine since she had just forced herself to return to normal from being in the state of Berserk.
“Let’s move on,” said Jiang Fei. He left Isabella in Ariel’s care and headed deeper into the waters alone with 0542 guiding him.
“Have you identified the ship fragment?” Jiang Fei asked.
“Yes, captain. The ship fragment has been identified as a Core Storage Facility,” 0542 replied.
“Another one?”
Jiang Fei was extremely happy. What better time to find a Core Storage when Isabella had just gotten out of Berserk state.
“Is there any Core of Life in there?”
“No. However, there are other cores that would be useful to her.”
