Chapter 1816: Chapter 551 I must take this batch of equipnt away_2
Two months ago, the “667 Secret chanical Research Base” was breached; at that ti, it was the Herlands Family responsible for guarding that base.
The base was overrun by the Iris Legion, and with the New King of Orlan’s mandate, their family naturally took on the mission in Sinless City.
“Clan Leader, most of the key components of the Titan production line are here! Model 003 battle armor is also intact. Only the blueprints are missing.”
“Hmm. It’s expected that those guys didn’t put the blueprints together. Recovering this equipnt is enough. Let’s leave quickly, clear the collars and suspicious items on the way.”
“Yes, Clan Leader.”
“…”
After checking the equipnt, everyone receiving it let out a long sigh of relief.
The equipnt that was taken included one of the two production lines in the Orlan Royal Court that could produce the Titan Battle Armor, and that half-finished armor consud a significant amount of rare Magic Power tal collected by the Royal Court.
Now that the items have been retrieved, most of the losses have been recovered.
As for the Titan Blueprints, the Royal Court has backups; whether they can be recovered or not doesn’t matter.
If the blueprints fell into the hands of those on the Southern Continent, they would be of no use. Considering that machinery is forbidden in the Southern Continent, they were probably burned, so there is no need to worry.
After roughly counting the items, these people did not dare to stay, and one by one the porters used chanical arms to lift the heavy equipnt. According to the original plan, they quietly left following the planned evacuation route.
The leader of the receiving team was a white-haired old woman.
Her na is Elsa Herlands.
Though she wasn’t one of the Four King’s Knights of her generation, she is the clan leader of the Herlands Family.
This ti, in addition to retrieving the chanical equipnt the Royal Court ordered them to retrieve at all costs, their Forbidden Curse Master clan also had to rescue the rare Forbidden Curse genius, Ray, from their Herlands Family!
Because this concerns the inheritance of the clan’s bloodline.
Ray had shown an extraordinary affinity with the Thunder Series since he was young. During the family’s talent test, his affinity with the Thunder Elent was the highest in the Orlan Royal Court in three thousand years.
This is the innate talent of a Forbidden Curse Master.
If nothing goes wrong, Ray would also be the next of the Four King’s Knights!
For this, Elsa, the old clan leader, took the risk and personally ca to the rescue.
Seeing her grandson safe, the worry condensed at the old woman’s brow finally relaxed into relief.
The constant hissing of the orderly boilers was ever-present.
The atmosphere was not tense.
They were well aware of the Royal Court’s plan, and they knew the danger was always within Sinless City. Since they had gotten out, it was impossible for them to be pursued again.
Walking on the mountain road, Elsa checked her grandson’s body. Only after confirming he had not been hard by the people of the Southern Continent did she completely relax, shedding tears: “Ke, you must have suffered during this ti.”
Looking at his always indulging grandmother, Ray instead comforted: “Grandma, I’m fine.”
The old woman sighed repeatedly with emotion; it was good to have him back alive.
At the sa ti, she looked at her grandson’s neck and saw no Slave Collar, raising so doubts in her mind. She cautiously asked: “Ke, tell Grandma, what exactly happened during the ti you were captured by those people from the Southern Continent…”
His body seed fine, but if any ntal manipulation had been done, that would be a big problem.
However, upon asking, she realized she was overthinking. The people of the Southern Continent looked down on the genius of the East Wilderness who were considered treasured assets, and at most, they would only be advanced slaves.
Ray recounted his experience of being captured, which was mainly interrogation and then imprisonnt.
The matters he knew were almost already known by the intelligence personnel of the Southern Continent, so there was nothing much to ask about.
He was used as bait and locked up in Sinless City until recently being auctioned off.
The old woman was surprised after hearing this: “Are you saying… soone saved you earlier?”
“Yes.”
Seeing the elder’s expression of ‘as expected,’ Ray said: “I figured it wasn’t soone you sent, grandma. That guy said it was entrusted by a ‘friend.’ Heh, must be soone from another faction trying to get their hands on the Titan…”
But recalling the scene in the restaurant earlier, he felt that guy had a very special aura.
He didn’t seem strong at all, but that aura felt like it was etched into his mind, inescapable.
Then the elder asked: “Did that person say… it was entrusted by a friend? What did he look like? Did he tell you his na?”
Ray replied: “That guy was disguised as a Southern Continent rchant, quite decent looking but extrely arrogant… He was very cautious and never revealed his real identity. However, there was a woman with compound eyes who ca to find him, saying she knew him… called JOKER?”
The elder then asked: “Did you see any chanical arms on him?”
Ray didn’t understand why his grandmother asked this, but he answered confidently: “No.”
The elder’s voice contained a trace of concern: “Then… is that person safe?”
Ray couldn’t read the decades-old emotions on her face, and truthfully replied: “I don’t know. That woman with compound eyes seed to know him, so she didn’t kill him. But then the worm disaster struck, and the entire city…”
“…”
Hearing this, the old woman’s cloudy eyes fell into deep thought.
…
This Elsa Herlands, the clan leader of the Herlands Family, was an old friend of Lenny.
In their younger days, they grew up together as childhood friends with mutual affection.
Later, due to a family alliance, Lenny, the most talented heir of the Playgod Clan at the ti, had an arranged marriage with another person.
