Chapter 121 - Abduction

n

n

nThe next day the whole team are sitting inside a single room of the inn as they are listening to the report Watt is reading after the shadow mice came back.

nAt the same time, the similar thing is happening inside the Count meeting hall.

n

"They seemed to be investigating about some gangs and illegal businesses. I heard them when they are talking about a person named Sam who seemed to be busy with something inside the inn.

"

nThe middle-aged man who looked was tasked to keep an eye on them was giving his report to the Count and his son.

n

"Didn't you find him at the inn then?

"

n

"I tried, but the other party placed some kind of formation, it will not only alarm the party, it seemed to have some offensive functions as well, so I didn't probe him further. It completely concealed him from my vision and spiritual sense.

"

n

"What, a Peak stage Novice like you, can't even see through a formation from a person with a cultivation less than you.?

"

n

"Yes, Master.

"

nThe Count was deep in thought on how to proceed about this, killing all the members crossed his mind, more than once. Because, only he, his son and the servant standing in front of him knew that he is the big-boss of all the crimes.

nIf they are really investigating the underground business and it is part of their mission, he can't let them go at all.

nBut the middle-aged man interrupted his thoughts.

n

"Master, I have something else to report.

"

n

"Do tell.

"

n

"A young lady among their team seemed to posses the qualities you are searching for.

"

nWhen he said these words, the room was silent for a second before the count became frenzied.

n

"What did you say? Are you sure?

"

n

"Yes, master. She has exact same qualities you mentioned. Her spirit and aura are something different and she seemed to possess the mercury marrow constitution you mentioned.

"

nWhen the count heard him, he immediately stood up and said.

n

"Immediately bring her here. Try to con her, if not possible use force. But don't kill anyone openly. We will secretly deal with in dark and nobody of them will be going out of this city alive.

"

nCount immediately ordered and after the middle-aged man left, he said to his son.

n

"Gather every member of the clan and gang and be on high alert. We don't know of they had any power house escorting them. Gather all our members in our family estate and guard the door. I will make the ritual arrangements.

nEven if the girl is not someone who we are looking for, the conflict will already be started. So, we need to prepare to take them down, but if she is really the one and even if the powerhouse did show up. I need an uninterrupted 3 hours with the girl to perform the ritual, you are in charge of it.

"

nAfter that both father and son went on their ways.

nAt this moment the team members are already done with the report and when they got the news from on of the mice that the Count is suspicious of them, they realised their mistake of being overly active.

nThey decided that they will put on an act of being on a vacation. So, they separated and went on to various places.

nWatt is the only one inside the room with Falck, thinking on how to deal with the situation. He and Jack went overboard with the investigation and somehow their group has been recognised by Count's son.

nBut at this moment a shadow mouse streaked in and when he heard the news on what it is, he was completely shocked.

nThe news is about the peak stage Novice making a move to catch a girl from their group. But Watt didn't know who that girl is, but he was glad that the mouse came as soon as it got the news.

nThat person might not have made a move yet.

nBut Watt didn't know where the girls are and he didn't know whether their target is Kelly or Jasmine.

nHe wanted to ask Sam on what to do, but when he opened the door and saw, the ape didn't let him in at all. He tried to say something and Falck translated. Ape also gave an answer.

nIn short,

"Boss is in a critical stage and we cannot disturb.

"

nWatt didn't have any choice and came out of the inn, and immediately boarded on Falck.

nBoth of them flew in the sky as they made loud noise attracting all the attention. Many people only looked at them with curiosity, but they didn't care much.

nBut the teammates recognised them and followed the duo. Watt was searching for the girls as fast as he can. He finally spotted them at the beach.

nWhen Watt landed, he was already late, the Peak stage novice already reached the place and is talking to the two ladies.

nHe ran towards them as he looked at the frown of their faces, when Kelly made eye contact with him, he signalled to get out of that place, but before they could react, the middle-aged man reacted and abducted Jasmine.

nWhen Kelly tried to resist, she was knocked out.

nThe middle-aged man was fast as he immediately moved.

nAt this moment, their remaining teammates came running.

n

"The count sent someone to abduct Jasmine, I got info that he is using her for a ritual. We only have three hours; Boss is in a critical stage of cultivation, inform as soon as possible. Jack let's go.

nPhilip, they are also planning on eliminating them, you lead the rest and stay with Boss, until he comes out you have to hold on. If it is possible, we will try to get her back.

"

nWatt said, he immediately flew on his beast as Jack followed him by land.

nThe rest of them immediately went back to the inn to inform Sam at any moment.

nWatt is really anxious on what is going to happen. He didn't know, if they can find a loop hole and get Jasmine back, at this moment all he wished was for Sam to come out.

nHe didn't know if Sam can turn the situation around. But he felt that there might be a chance, if he was really here.

nEven though, Watt flew, he mainly did so, to not lose the sight on the abductor and also give Jack a direction.

nThey finally stopped outside, the Cougar estate. They saw as the middle-aged man entered the estate and run towards a building deep inside.

nBut they didn't dare go inside, because, there are a lot of people gathering inside the estate and all of them are Novice stage.

nThere are a lot of people from the Novice early stage to Novice peak stage.

nWhen the flow of the people stopped, there seemed to be more than three hundred people. They didn't know what to do. Sneaking is almost impossible.

nAt this exact moment, Sam finally opened his eyes. He is at Level 7 Novice, finally at the late stage.

nIf not for his exhausted mental state, the breakthrough would have been easy.

nHe stood up and looked at Sky and Yanwu who just opened their eyes, at this moment, the ape came forward and said something, Sam's expression changed, the happiness on his breakthrough just a moment ago was gone.

nHe came out of the room and saw Philip and the rest are running towards him. From their expressions, one could say that they are really glad that Sam came out.

n

"Thank goodness, you are out.

" Philip explained the whole situation on how Watt and Jack went after the abductor to get Jasmine and also about the whole ritual.

nHis expression grew colder.

nApart from the anger, there is only one thought in his mind.

n'Why?'

nThis is the only question in his mind.

nIn his previous life, Stella was also in same situation, even when he was in top of the world, they still dared to do this.

nNow, when he was still a Rank 5 Artisan, the status, all of it seemed nothing now.

nEven though, Jasmine is not as close as Stella, he is still frustrated.

nThe scenario was extremely similar to what happened in his previous life.

nThe family heads of those clans in didn't dare to do anything to him, but their sons, who don't how dangerous he is dared to do this.

nNow, the situation is almost same. The marquis, who is a lot stronger than him, didn't even refute him when he blatantly went to him mansion and threatened him.

nBut here, a count, who isn't half as strong as the marquis is blatantly making his move on a person under his wing.

nWhy?

nWhy is this happening?

nEven though, he was plagued by this, he didn't stop one second. He took out his hoverboard and moved towards the estate. Yanwu, Sky and ape who are outside, also moved out and started following him.

nHis teammates are the last ones to follow him as they were still in daze by Sam's speed.

nSam didn't stop for his teammates, today he is determined to know the answer that is plaguing his mind. He doesn't want to let the history repeat again and the same scenario shouldn't happen in the future as well.

n
