Chapter 27: A Chance Encounter

Seeing that the three-headed water dragon was not injured at all, Locke immediately activated the Steel Dragon’s rapid flight mode and escaped with Clifford.

“There’s something wrong with this three-headed water dragon! It seems to be absorbing the energy from the explosion!”

After Clifford’s attack, the three-headed water dragon stopped attacking, as if it were digesting the energy it had just absorbed from the explosion.

Clifford immediately turned his head and asked, “What should we do now?”

Locke shrugged helplessly. “I contacted Green a while back. He said he will investigate the matter!”

“Looking at its movement and speed, this three-headed water dragon will not reach land in at least three days. Let’s clear out all the magical beasts around Hessler first! If things get worse, we’ll have to evacuate the citizens of Hessler ahead of time!”

That was all they could do for now, because this was not an enemy they could deal with.

After returning to Hessler, they spent less than three hours clearing out all the water beasts on the beach. A few beasts who were isolated from the group were taken down by the city guards.

After the battle ended, the two returned to the city to find a restaurant to have a nice meal. After all, they had not eaten for more than a day since the battle began! As they were in a private room, Locke received Green’s call. Green’s expression did not look too good.

“Locke, they’ll need another five days to provide reinforcements. In these five days, think of a way to hold back this three-headed sea dragon! When the time comes, the captain of Team 10 will personally come to your aid!”

Upon hearing this, Locke could not help but frown. “Five days?”

“We just fought it. There’s no way to hurt it at all! It will reach Hessler in three days, so please send reinforcements on the fourth day!”

After hearing Locke’s words, Green immediately fell into deep thought. A few minutes later, he said, “I will do my best! I’ll think of something else in the next few days. I’ll see if I can lead it in another direction!”

Locke could only spread his hands helplessly.

“Alright! I’ll do my best. If it doesn’t work out, get the people in the city ready to move!”

After disconnecting, Locke instantly lost the mood to eat.

Seeing Locke’s depressed expression, Clifford suggested, “Let’s take a walk around the city at night to relax. This kind of thing happens often in the Dunmei Dark Blade Dragons. You’ve already done very well!”

Helpless, Locke could only nod and quickly finished his food.

A few black-robed men were setting up a huge magic array in the underground sewer. At the center of the array was a blue-haired girl. Her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be in a deep sleep. The four spellcasters remained silent as they continued to channel magic into the array.

Meanwhile, up on the streets, a few men in blue fancy clothing were frantically searching for the princess. They were the guards of the Princess of the Kingdom of Correne, and everything was fine when they entered the city!

The naughty princess wanted to go out to play. Hence, when night came, she used her bedsheets to escape from her room on the second floor. After that, she completely disappeared!

Her guards immediately rushed to the city lord’s residence to report this matter to the city lord. However, due to the attack of the water beasts surrounding the city, the city lord’s attention was completely focused on defending the city, and he had no time to help them find the princess.

Elijah Smythe, the princess’s personal guard, did not expect the princess to escape from her room!

Using the magic stone in his hand, he tried again and again to sense the princess’s location, but because the streets of the city were too complicated, he could not find her.

At this moment, Locke, who was on the street with Clifford, was about to head to the entertainment bar. Suddenly, he was knocked down by a man in blue.

“Hey! What’s wrong with you?”

Before Locke could finish, the two men in blue ran away.

Clifford wanted to stop the two of them, but before he could make a move, they had disappeared.

“Locke, are you alright?”

Locke stood up and looked into the distance. He patted his clothes and said, “Yeah, I’m fine, but I have a feeling that those two are up to something!”

“Let’s go and take a look!”

Clifford immediately cast the advanced support spell—Light Body and Flight.

The two chased after the mysterious duo through the dark alley.

After searching for more than ten minutes, Clifford contacted Locke with his team badge.

“Come over quickly! I found them!”

Through the captain’s badge, Locke quickly found Clifford. He was standing on the roof, watching the two men below who were running around mysteriously.

“Have you figured out what happened?”

“I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to find me, so I stayed on the roof to observe what they were doing! They seem to be looking for someone, but there are too many buildings in the city, so they can’t locate their target. However, it is better for us to stop them as soon as possible. They have already broken five or six stalls, and they will soon attract the attention of the city guards!”

Upon hearing this, Locke immediately flew in front of the two of them.

“I’m very sorry to stop you, but please cooperate with my investigation!”

As he spoke, he took out the Dunmei Dark Blade Dragons’ badge. Seeing the exquisite token in Locke’s hand, he stopped in his tracks.

Elijah Smythe stared at Locke warily and said, “Are you a member of the Dunmei Dark Blade Dragons from the Kingdom of Dunmei?”

Upon hearing this, Locke immediately put away the token in his hand. “It’s good that you recognize this! Who are you? Why are you running around the city?”

Elijah Smythe immediately revealed his identity. “I am the personal guard of the princess of the Correne Kingdom!”

“We came to Dunmei to discuss some matters, but the princess was being playful and escaped from her room on the second floor in the middle of the night! She has been missing for three days, so we are very anxious!”

“Then why didn’t you ask the city lord for help?”

“The city lord is occupied with the city’s defenses due to the beasts’ attacks, so he doesn’t have time to send anyone to help us search!”

Looking at Elijah Smythe’s expression, he seemed to be hiding many things from them.

Hence, Locke deliberately said, “I heard that the Kingdom of Correne is good at controlling sea beasts! Is the sea beast outside related to your princess’ disappearance?”

Hearing this, Elijah Smythe immediately froze. Then, he pretended to be ignorant and replied, “I don’t know anything about this!”

“I’ll have you know that I am the captain of the fifth team of the Dunmei Dark Blade Dragons! If you don’t explain yourself to me now, I have the right to dispose of you as spies from the enemy!”

Saying this, Locke took out his weapon!
