Chapter 234: Chapter 195: Ancestor Relics, Escaping Clockwork Bay_2

The remaining neutral forces of the poor Three Seas, as well as those independent of the Seven Seas, watched the excitement, taking the opportunity to see if there was a chance to loot a wave."

As for other lesser-known places like the Frost Sea and Beautiful Sea, they continued to have a low presence.

In general, Chen Qing assisting Shang Jia was not a big problem.

Moreover, Shang Jia had just looted a haul from Mechanical Island and had plenty of good stuff in his pocket.

Chen Qing’s trip was likely to rake in a hefty profit, with a small chance of a minor loss.

As long as Chen Qing did not defect to the Delu Gu Family, there wouldn’t be a big problem.

This job was doable.

She needed to leave immediately!

The Mechanics on the train must be from Yulandi’s side.

Although the virus from the Sword Dance Mantis is easy to treat, it is too deadly.

It acts quickly and has a noticeable effect—with an infection reducing combat capability by 90%.

Fortunately, this virus can only be directly transmitted from the original host.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable.

It’s also possible that the researchers have not yet developed a more vicious second-generation virus.

Regardless, Chen Qing needed to be extra cautious of the people from Yulandi’s side—they’re dangerous.

With the vastness of Clockwork Bay, leading Eluo and the others in a getaway was easy; the problem now was how to leave the train.

Mechanical Creations couldn’t be used, and since the train was made of metal and not flesh and blood, Chen Qing, with her strength, could break through if necessary.

But... there were many problems that would follow.

Chen Qing would have no problem dealing with pursuers from this train merchant convoy, but if she had to confront all of the island’s Mechanical Creations and Bounty Hunters, that would not be so easy to handle.

From their current location to the port, there was still some time needed, and she estimated that by then, the Bounty Hunters would already know about the new bounty order from the Demon Dragon Pirate Group.

If they couldn’t catch Shang Jia, Eluo and You Zeqi would be relatively easy to grab.

It wasn’t like Daliya’s time, with plenty of time available for Chen Qing to devise a complete and thorough plan.

As long as they could reach the port of Clockwork Bay, they’d be safe; once on board a ship, the pursuers wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.

Chen Qing stepped forward and swiftly informed You Zeqi and Eluo of the plan by carving the text.

While their senses were still intact, they had to leave Clockwork Bay immediately and meet up with the Demon Dragon Pirate Group.

Once she confirmed the two understood her plan, Chen Qing lifted Black Blade and aimed it at the train carriage wall.

[Azure Darkness Sky Splitting]!!

A streak of azure blade energy was unleashed, instantly shattering the outward-facing wall of the carriage, making a loud commotion.

The robbers outside heard the commotion and immediately broke in.

However, by the time they entered the carriage, it was already empty, with only a faint trace of azure blade energy lingering.

Chen Qing’s power was insufficient; the skill [Azure Darkness Sky Splitting] was powerful enough to cleave space!

However, with Chen Qing, whether it was tearing through pirates or breaking walls, to fully unleash the skill’s full power would still take quite some time.

After breaking through the train wall, Chen Qing immediately fled with Eluo and You Zeqi by car.

Straight after their departure, pursuers from the train soon followed.

By the looks of things, they seemed to be from the traitors of the Mechanical Association.

Chen Qing spotted the figure of the Sword Dance Mantis.

It wasn’t just the pursuers from the train; robbers from the robber alliance also received the signal and joined the chase as Chen Qing fled with Eluo and You Zeqi.

Their alliance was never that strong to begin with.

Through surveillance equipment, Chen Qing saw a robber grab several carriages of the train and flee with them.

"..."

Now wasn’t the time to worry about that; the Sword Dance Mantis was getting closer behind them.

It was as if the scene at the deep sea floor was reenacted, with the twisted, dark, crawling monster quickly closing in on them.

The sight of the Sword Dance Mantis, even barely under control by the traitors’ faction, was frightening to them, never knowing when the Mantis might turn against them.

If the Sword Dance Mantis ever broke free of control, these people would promptly evacuate Clockwork Bay.

As for the lives of everyone on Clockwork Bay, it would be of no concern to them then.

The gloomy gray clouds painted the entire sky, and a black heavy motorcycle sped across the frost-covered road, shattering the ice and mingling the crisp sounds into the air.

The cold wind beat against Chen Qing’s face, frosting her eyebrows and eyelashes.

Following her were a dark swarm of mechanical pursuers, countless in number.

The relentless artillery fire aimed at Chen Qing was like a sunset, constantly striking.
