Chapter 500 Return (1/2)
At the same time, a few hundred kilometers away, Ember was still chasing after Alvin, and this chase had been going on for more than ten minutes. Both parties were already far away from the main battlefield where Han Xiao and the others were, and they were about to arrive at the Teleportation Mage's location.
After Anur's death, the situation on the battlefield had turned around completely, and the DarkStar warriors had become the prey that was being hunted. None of them had a chance to send any messages, so Ember was unaware of what was happening on the battlefield. In his mind, Anur was definitely still toying with those bothersome mercenaries.
He was not worried about Anur's safety at all. When he entered DarkStar at a young age, Anur had already been a Calamity Grade Super in the organization. He had received Anur's training from a young age and was extremely clear on how powerful his teacher was.
Since Anur had taken the initiative to stay behind and delay the enemies, he definitely had absolute confidence in himself. While his teacher had recently been disappointed by his failures, these little details were not important, and Ember had full confidence in Anur. With Nagakin's speed, Nagakin would not even be able to catch the edge of his teacher's clothes. How could his teacher possibly lose?
Even if he could not win, running definitely would not be a problem for his teacher.
Not sending any news meant that everything was in his grasp and that there was nothing to inform him of.
In order to prevent himself from being too eye catching, Ember dispersed the gigantic black cloud and only let the carbon particles revolve around him. Alvin's aircraft was still escaping, and there was still some distance between the two.
Alvin looked back and said with a face full of sweat, ”We will arrive soon. When we stop, we will only have ten seconds or so before he catches up. If we cannot complete the teleportation within this time, we will be dead.”
Aroshia looked at Alvin, and after thinking for a while, she corrected, ”Not us, only you will die.”
”Thank you for the reminder…” Alvin gnashed his teeth.
How infuriating!
The shop of the Teleportation Mage was already in sight. Aroshia seemed to have thought of something and said, ”Right, after beating him up the last time, he may have shifted away from here.”
”…” Alvin.
Bang!
The aircraft performed an emergency brake and crashed head on into the wall of a bookshop. A large hole was immediately created in the front of the bookshop, and the shelves along the way were all destroyed. Torn up paper exploded into the air like fireworks and drifted down like snow.
Both of them jumped out of the aircraft halfway and landed in the destroyed bookshop. They did not have the time to park the aircraft properly before knocking on the door.
The counter by the door was also sent flying, and Yi Xuan was currently leaning back on a chair, reading a book. He stared at the scene before him in a complete daze and had a look of complete confusion on his face.
My shop is destroyed‽
Aroshia pointed at Yi Xuan. ”He's the one.”
”Thankfully, he's still here.” Alvin heaved a sigh of relief. He then raised his head up to look at the large hole. ”At least it's very airy now.”
Yi Xuan looked at Aroshia and said, ”I recognize you. You were with the mercenary who beat me up the last time.”
”I need your help. Please send us to the northern port quickly. Money isn't a problem.” Alvin did not dare delay and immediately stated his intention.
Yi Xuan fell into a daze and looked down at the shredded paper all over the floor. He finally reacted to the situation and felt a sharp pain throughout his entire body. The book in his hands slipped and fell to the ground. It was as though there was a dagger being plunged into his heart. He felt that even breathing was becoming difficult, and he cried out in despair.
”My treasured collection!”
Alvin was getting anxious. This was not the time for him to bother about those broken books, and he pressed, ”We are currently being chased by someone who belongs to DarkStar, and he won't even blink when killing. If you don't leave together with us, he will also kill you. We are Godorans and will give you a high fee for your services. Furthermore, we will also compensate for your losses. We are running out of time! Hurry up and teleport us!”
Looking through the large hole and into the sky, Ember's figure was approaching them rapidly. In another two seconds, they would be within his attack range. At that time, he would be able to kill Alvin with a simple snap of his fingers.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
Cold sweat trickled all over Alvin as he looked at the hesitating Teleportation Mage. They did not make any arrangements beforehand, and Alvin did not know if the Teleportation Mage in front of him would help. This was the only hope for them to escape.
At this moment, Aroshia said, ”My friend said that he will come for you if you don't help.”
As Yi Xuan heard that, he did not say another word and immediately opened the teleportation door. A whirlpool-like blue glow surrounded them, and the glow of magic dyed the surroundings blue.
Alvin was overjoyed. He rushed into the teleportation door quickly, and Yi Xuan did not dare hesitate either. He did not wish to stay behind and use his weak mage body to endure the rage of the enemy.
Hum!
A brilliant glow flashed, and the teleportation door closed. The three of them had disappeared without a trace.
Ember, who had just charged in, saw this scene, and dark clouds could be seen on his face.
He had actually lost them!
He had originally thought that Alvin was already at his wits end, but never had he imagined that a Teleportation Mage would be hidden in this place.
If not for Aesop, the Great Mechanic Han would not have known that there was a hidden Teleportation Mage in this place. This was something that could not be realized with strategy but intel. At that time, Han Xiao also did not imagine that he would be dragged into the battle between DarkStar and Godora.
Ember looked at the empty room and clenched his fists. Only a mage who was proficient in teleportation would be able to track their whereabouts. At that moment, the traitor had already escaped with all clues being lost, and Ember was not able to give chase.
He truly wondered if he was having a streak of bad luck recently. All kinds of unexpected scenarios seemed to have been happening to him, and even a mission like this that should have had a ninety percent success rate had failed. It seemed like his teacher Anur would be angered to death.
Ember let out a depressed sigh and took out his communicator to contact Anur. With his mission failing, he needed to send news back immediately so that they can plan their next move.
Buss!
Anur's face appeared on the communicator, and he said with a frown, ”Have you succeeded?”
Ember shook his head and described the situation.
”Trash!” Anur flew into a rage.
Ember felt his body freeze up, and he was a little awkward. This was the first time that his teacher had cursed him. It seemed like his teacher was truly angered to death.
”Where do you think the traitor has escaped to?”
”I don't know. There weren't any clues,” Ember replied.
”If they try to escape in a spaceship, it will save us a great deal of trouble,” Anur said.
Ember nodded. Their DarkStar fleet was already on standby outside of Noriosse and ready to block the traitor from escaping. The moment that the traitor attempted to leave by ship, he would be surrounded by their fleet.
”How's the situation on your side?” Ember asked.
”Humph, the battle is a stalemate. Hurry up and return. I have delayed the enemy, and if you can get back in time, we can work together to get rid of the Godoran and those mercenaries. Since you can't catch the traitor, let's wipe out these enemies first.”
