Chapter 212 - Problem Arises
"Clang!"
Max landed in the washroom of another cabin.
This was the second cabin he had been to. He along with one of Lora'a guards had managed to secure one of the cabins already.
The man was currently handling the situation in the secured cabin. Letting people understand what was going on. On the other hand, Max decided to go ahead. He planned to find all the bombs first and mark their location. Saving people like he did earlier would only get him to waste his ti.
The mana around him surged and he sealed off the hole in the ceiling with a layer of earth.
He then brought out another one of the cubs of shadow Leopard.
It was the youngest, One or Black 1 as called by Sera.
"Try and look...if you can find that sll…." Max ordered.
He had already made One sll the bomb below the sink earlier.
One slled around before looking towards Max and shaking its head.
"Who's there?" A man's voice sounded and Max could hear footsteps coming their way.
"Hide," Max spoke and One imdiately vanished into the darkness.
Lights flashed and soon a man in a mask carrying a rifle entered the washroom.
"Is everything fine there?" A voice sounded through his transmitter.
"I was sure, I heard sothing…" the man mumbled.
"Is everything fine there?" The voice sounded again.
"Yes everything is fine," the man replied.
But he was still not sure. He began to open each and every door to make sure there was no one in.
When he opened the last door, his eyes went wide.
"Raise your hands, How did you co here?" He asked with a frown. He had checked earlier. There shouldn't have been anyone here. Besides, every room had been taken under control. There was no way for anyone to cross cabins.
Where did this person co from?
He felt sothing was wrong and quietly reached out for his transmitter.
"Huh?"
He suddenly looked at his waist and found his transmitter missing.
"Are you looking for this?" Max asked with a smile.
The man looked at Max and his face froze. A black cat-like creature had appeared beside Max and there was his transmitter in its mouth.
"Y-You!" the man looked in shock. He didn't hesitate any longer and shot.
"Click! Click!"
The rifle seed to have jamd at this mont and the man's expression started to turn pale. He desperately tried to fix it but nothing seems to be working.
The temperature in the surrounding started to fall and the man suddenly looked at Max in realisation.
Max released a cold white vapor from his mouth as he spoke, "I doubt you can use that thing with your bullets frozen…"
"Clank!"
The weapon dropped off of the man's hand and he tried to run, but Max was faster than him.
Max grabbed the man by his neck and lifted him up. "Tell , where is the bomb?"
"Try to scream and see if you live or not…" Max spoke with a frown as the guy was about to scream.
"Are you going to speak or not?!" Max asked as he took out his tagger and inserted it in the man's leg.
The man wanted to scream in pain. But the mont his eyes t Max, he imdiately brought his hands to his mouth and held himself back.
He could feel that the guy in front of him would definitely kill him if he dared to even release a squeak.
"I don't have ti….speak or die…" Max asked as he took out his dagger from the man's leg and brought it in front of his eyes.
"It's in the air vent…." the man spoke in fear.
Max released the man and he fell on the floor with a thud.
Max walked towards the air vent and checked it. The bomb was indeed in the air vent. These vents were designed to suck in the foul sll and refresh the washrooms. But in the process, it erased the sll of the bomb itself, no wonder One didn't manage to find it.
«Check the air vents in the washroom. My shadow leopard might not be able to find it if it's hidden in there..»
Max imdiately ssaged Lear.
«Lear: Got it….I am about to look for the bomb.»
Lear's reply ca imdiately.
….
"Shut up!!"
Lear shouted and the crowd of people imdiately beca quiet.
"I am not so help sent by the Association or the Union. Neither am I the mber of the security group. I have helped you people of my own assertion. So take your complaints sowhere else…." Lear said in anger.
These people had imdiately started scolding him when he took down the this ard man.
It had really pissed him off.
"Please calm down…" A sweet voice entered everyone's ear as Lora walked in with her guard. She had managed to secure the cabin on that side as well.
"You handle them...co with Twice…" Lear said as he took Twice with and left looking for the bomb.
"Isn't she Lora Roxley…." Soone seed to have identified her even in the thin light. There were only a few balls of flas being lit by Mages with fire elents.
Lear had once again missed the chance of knowing Lora's identity. What was funny was that no one had recognized him? It seed that him acting as a trash for years had indeed worked.
"Yes, I am Lora Roxley. I will like you people to cooperate. The help would be arriving soon. Until then you can let us handle it…."
"It is dangerous…. How could you go alone like that, Miss? You have to leave it to people like us." One of the n stepped up to help and soon there were a few more willing to help.
The mont people ca to know that there was soone from Noble House, they imdiately began to butter them up. This was quite a common occurrence in the upper society.
….
Lear had reached the cafeteria. There was a cafeteria to have food in each of the VIP cabins. While for the rest, multiple common cabins had to share one.
Twice seed to have found sothing and it suddenly looked towards the kitchen.
It moved and Lear followed after.
Seeing twice growling at a tin container filled with dirty liquid waste, Lear couldn't help but frown. If this thing was truly what he thought it to be, they were done for.
He went ahead and touched the container. Since it was a piece of tal, Lear could sense its entire structure.
"Damn it!" Lear cursed.
It was indeed a drainage system and not a container. This huge pipe was being used to transfer the liquid waste to the waste storage.
They didn't know where the real storage tank was. Even if they knew it, how were they supposed to enter it? This could only be done by professionals. If they tried to do it, it might only lead to destruction.
Besides, that wasn't even the main problem. What guarantee was there that the bomb was not stuck sowhere along the pipelines? Now that he thought about it, Lear felt a headache.
It was true....if so idiot flushed the bomb in the toilet, this would lead to the sa situation.
He imdiately contacted Max. He needed to find sothing out.
«Lear: Is the bomb waterproof?»
