When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean. Chapter 228 - 193: Mechanical Train, Hijacking Incident2

She had participated a bit in the construction of Clockwork Bay with her family elders initially.

Chen Qing quietly watched the scenery outside the window, while Wu Xi stopped talking and began to correct the students’ howork.

The compartnt was quiet, but the atmosphere wasn’t tense; on the contrary, it was quite harmonious.

Both of them had their own things to do.

The Alchemy Factory was quite far from the port of Clockwork Bay. The two had set out in the morning, and they expected to arrive at the factory by evening, at which ti, Chen Qing would spend the night at an inn on the island.

Although Chen Qing was a wanted criminal with quite a few adversaries, the reach of the Beast Clan that issued the warrant didn’t extend to the chanical Association’s grounds.

As for the Red Snake Family, it was the sa for them, and besides, they didn’t have that much energy to devote to Chen Qing.

As mbers of the chanical Association, they couldn’t escape bla for the incidents involving the Association.

Not just the Red Snake Family, the chaos caused by the Sword Dance Mantis wouldn’t be so simply resolved.

Especially since it had dragged in Demon Dragon and White Immortal, those two pirates.

Although... the Sword Dance Mantis that caused their trouble was created by Chen Qing.

But, what resources did Chen Qing have, and what about the chanical Association?

Demon Dragon and White Immortal were pirates after all, and getting entangled with this group of villains wasn’t so easily escapable.

After a simple lunch on the train, Chen Qing, having nothing better to do, simply started helping Wu Xi correct those students’ howork.

The two exchanged experiences and insights along the way. Chen Qing, quick-witted, and Wu Xi, well-learned, found quite a bit to talk about when together.

Among Wu Xi’s students, Chen Qing was most fond of that kid called Di Di.

Yin Xian was also good, but he was too rigid, not as flexible as Di Di.

"Di Di, huh? That child’s talent is indeed good, but it’s a pity he is too impulsive."

Chen Qing had indeed a good eye, Di Di lacked neither talent nor family background, yet, precisely because of these two factors, the child couldn’t settle down.

He lacked a good teacher, one who could keep him under control.

Chen Qing would be suitable.

Yet, this was another unfortunate matter.

Wu Xi didn’t voice it, and Chen Qing certainly didn’t ask, teaching students was too troubleso.

Even if these students would bring her great benefits.

Chen Qing was well aware of what she had been like before, and she knew what sort of characters Chen Cheng and the others were.

Faced with such types, she feared she might lose her temper and deal with it hands-on, leading to total destruction.

The scholarly atmosphere in the compartnt was quite thick, and the mood just right, when suddenly, a commotion ca from outside the compartnt.

It was followed by a rough, piercing scream, extrely agonizing.

It was as if soone had been castrated, that miserable.

"What happened?"

Wu Xi imdiately contacted the train’s staff, but there was only a busy signal on the other end.

Sothing had happened.

Chen Qing and Wu Xi exchanged glances, understanding the situation.

"Sorry, I didn’t expect to encounter such a situation."

Wu Xi gave a wry smile; she didn’t rashly open the cabin door, as the train’s defense systems were very robust.

"It’s okay."

Chen Qing shook her head as the book in her hand [snap] closed.

Situations like these, no one wants to encounter them.

"Step back."

The compartnt was very spacious, similar to a room, covering several dozen square ters.

Chen Qing drew her knife, pointing the blade towards the compartnt door.

Wu Xi’s expression was not looking good; this train belonged to the chanical Association.

The hijacking of this train, especially on the grounds of the chanical Association, was very telling.

chanical Spiders climbed up the compartnt door, and it exploded with a loud bang.

After the black smoke cleared, two ard hijackers were standing at the doorway, aiming their guns at Chen Qing and Wu Xi.

"Lord Wu Xi, Lord Chen Qing, please co with us."

These two hijackers clearly ca prepared, having already breached the train’s systems.

Not only that, but they had also installed blocking devices on the train, rendering most of the chanical creations useless.

This included Chen Qing’s own Super Shield Whale among others; only the bombs were still functional.

Even if Chen Qing didn’t use a bomb to open the door, they would have had the train’s system open it.

The two hijackers bore no insignia of any power, appearing as if they had acted on a whim.

But both Chen Qing and Wu Xi knew, this incident must have been planned for a long ti.

Why else would it occur right after the Sword Dance Mantis incident?

"Don’t clash with them; we won’t be hard."

Wu Xi whispered to Chen Qing, sowhat worried that Chen Qing might not be able to contain her temper.
