Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild-Chapter 398 - 222: Mengze Island (Part 2)

No matter how much she looked like a handsome young man, in essence, she was still an emotionally rich girl.

Dorothy tugged at Li Ang’s sleeve: "Are we staying at the lakeside inn?"

Upon hearing this, Zoe also grabbed the other side: "Let’s stay at the kind of place with pointy ears said."

"You’ll get used to it in a few days. Actually, it’s nothing... Hey! Don’t rush! That’s exactly where we’re staying!"

Li Ang retrieved the meat from their hands: "Mengze Island is a tourist hotspot. Can you guess what type of rooms are most plentiful here? An island like this is filled with such scenery, there’s no shortage for you."

He pointed to the lakeside port not far away: "That’s one of the entry ports to the island."

Due to the possibility of Transcendent Realm pinnacle Demons residing in the cloud mist above Mengze Island, to avoid unnecessary trouble, Flying Airships choose to take the canyon cloud waterfall waterway in and then dock at the lake port to unload passengers and cargo.

"One of?" Alulu asked: "Are there other ports?"

"Yes, this is just the largest one recently. Did you see the lake behind that tree wall?"

The young girls nodded, as Li Ang continued: "The entire Mengze Island is composed of countless large and small lakes, or you could say it’s one big marsh, just separated by trees."

"Are those the trees we’re supposed to cut down?" Zoe shaded her eyes with her hand and peered into the distance.

"Do you think those trees are tall?"

"Yes."

Zoe immediately admitted, as they certainly looked taller than any city walls she had seen before.

"But that’s not even half of our target."

"What?" Dorothy exclaimed in surprise, as White Wolf and Xiaoniu also turned to look with curiosity.

Li Ang pointed toward the distant mist. Above the lake, the mist was very light, allowing for wide visibility, but in the far distance it was still hazy, with a faint silhouette emerging within.

"That’s where we need to cut the trees."

After a brief silence, Zoe asked: "Can we transport them?"

"There are specialized wooden cargo ships here."

Just as Li Ang finished speaking, a massive Flying Airship sailed out of the port ahead.

It was a converted giant cargo ship, more than three hundred meters long, specifically used to transport processed large logs.

The young girls looked up, the fixed lumber on the ship loomed like a mountain, casting a massive shadow.

Outside of the City of Trade and Mengze Island, where such large ships are needed, it’s rare to see them.

Commonly seen large ships are the Contador Company’s large passenger ships, but even those pale in comparison to these cargo ships.

Having addressed the transportation issue, Li Ang spoke about the rest of the day’s plan: "Since our target is in the center of the island, we won’t stay long at the outskirts; we need to keep moving inward."

He indicated the nearest port: "This is the most open to the public among the Lakefront Cities, with the surrounding powerful Demons cleared out. It’s the main activity spot for visitors here."

"We’ll head directly to the second Lakefront City to book a room, and then go look for nearby Low Tier Demons for practice."

Once he laid out the plan, Zoe and Dorothy both showed disappointment on their faces, even the usually diligent Andasu seemed a bit tempted by the beautiful scenery, temporarily losing interest in battle.

"See, what did I say before?"

"Fraud, it’s fraud. You didn’t explain the situation here clearly before." Dorothy said.

"Let’s just go!"

Zoe placed her hand on her sword hilt, held it for a few seconds, then slightly loosened her grip, and asked: "What comes after cutting the trees?"

Li Ang chuckled: "Once we transport the lumber to the City of the Ship’s Rudder, we can take a break for a while. Am I such a Demon that I won’t let the team members rest?"

"Hooray!" Zoe raised her hands.

"Really easy to please." Dorothy said.

She didn’t put on a strange expression, and in fact, even she was smiling.

The Weapon God docked at the first port, and Elaphia immediately issued an eviction notice.

As Li Ang and the team chatted amicably, her expression turned even colder.

After the Star Flower Travel Corps disembarked, she suddenly appeared again, leaving behind words about testing Li Ang. Before disappearing, she also said:

"I will keep track of the matter of the Divine Artisan’s Five Swords and the Empire."

Without pause, the Weapon God immediately lifted anchor to set sail, this time even bypassing the waterway and bursting straight through the clouds into the sky.

As it was encased in thick white clouds, Elaphia’s sword light swept like rain, temporarily cutting open the cloud covering Mengze Island.

Around the Star Flower Travel Corps, whether tourists, veteran Sky Knights here to cut trees and build ships, or beginner Sky Knights indistinguishable from tourists, all looked up in shock to the sky.

This scene stunned almost everyone, as they couldn’t comprehend how there could still be someone this powerful in the world today.

The vivid blue sky and blazing sunlight shone down unobstructed, suddenly turning the slightly stuffy port into a steamy cauldron, causing an environmental uproar among the crowd.

After snapping out of their daze, Dorothy clutched her chest amidst the clamorous crowd, saying with fear: "We really can’t provoke her."

Andasu slightly furrowed her brow: "Is she showing off her power to us?"

Zoe, unwilling to admit defeat, said: "Can’t Li Ang do that too? Doesn’t Li Ang have Treasure Artifacts?"

Actually, he really could.

A Tier Eight Professional, even a strong Tier Seven person who has the right means can accomplish it.

However, Li Ang outwardly didn’t respond, afraid this person would take the opportunity to make him reveal his abilities again.

"Let’s do our thing. We’ll catch up one day." Alulu said.

"Really?" Dorothy smacked her lips.

Alulu gently furrowed her brows: "Have some confidence, Sister Dorothy, you really do have such strong power."
