Reborn as a Transcendent-Chapter 678: Another Enemy Makes a Dazzling Entrance
“Well, alright then. We won’t go,” Nangong Lin said, sounding somewhat disappointed. She immediately turned to Pixie. “I’m entrusting you with my best camera.”
“Huh?” Pixie looked at her in confusion.
“Princess’ heroic moments must be recorded by you!” Nangong Lin placed one hand firmly on Pixie’s shoulder and spoke seriously.
The other girls who couldn’t go to the scene looked on expectantly.
“Sister, just to be safe, how about I ask the higher-ups to dispatch a fishery patrol ship?” Mylene suggested. Considering that the other party might hire a small nation’s military force to stage an ambush, she thought it would be best to increase their deterrence.
“You mean the ship with a displacement of sixty-seven thousand tons?” Pixie asked jokingly. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Everyone looked confused for a second, then immediately turned shocked. If that fishery patrol ship really sailed out there, the surrounding small countries would probably panic to death.
“No need for that. I have my own ways to monitor the surroundings. If there’s even the slightest sign of trouble, we’ll immediately leave,” Yaeger shook her head.
“Sister, it’s always good to prepare for emergencies. If not the patrol ship, how about I ask the higher-ups to send two submarines instead?” Mylene persisted, sounding uneasy.
Listening to her talk about giant fishery patrol ships and submarines, everyone’s faces started twitching involuntarily. Just what kind of scenario was she preparing for?
“No need. Even if something like that really happens, I still have ways to handle it,” Yaeger firmly declined Mylene’s kind intentions.
In her eyes, it was just a trivial matter. All she needed to do was go to Baiding Island, defeat Lucky, and then return, as simple as that. There was no need to make such a fuss about it. Besides, she didn’t want to get overly entangled with the higher-ups.
(Being carefree is much better.)
“Alright then, I’ll listen to you,” Mylene nodded gently.
“I don’t think they’ll actually go to such extremes,” Pixie commented.
“It doesn’t matter if they go that far or not; either way, it won’t affect me,” Yaeger replied calmly. She could teleport herself back anyway. Even if the entire island ended up surrounded by fleets, it wouldn’t bother her at all.
Seeing her so relaxed, everyone finally felt at ease. Thinking about it carefully, up until now, nothing had truly troubled Princess. This time, it would definitely be settled easily as well.
“Sister, on the day of the duel, will you go there with us on the patrol ship?” Mylene asked.
“No need. I have a special method to get there,” Yaeger waved her hand dismissively. As for what method exactly, she didn’t elaborate.
Though Nangong Lin and the others were curious, they refrained from prying since Princess didn’t explain.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore. How about we discuss the game instead?” Yaeger quickly shifted the topic.
“Hehe, Princess, I’ve been working really hard recently!” Nangong Lin said proudly. She really had been putting in effort recently, and her level was close to catching up to Rakshasa.
“Princess, I also…” The girls immediately started chattering excitedly, one after another, competing to speak. Yaeger, however, didn’t find it bothersome at all, and happily listened to their lively accounts of their adventures in the game.
Occasionally, she even gave them helpful pointers.
Under the same sky, at a certain bar in the inner district. Stanley, second son of the Lin family—one of Roc City’s four great families—sat drinking gloomily, his face swollen and bruised.
“Damn it, even Dad has never beaten me like this!”
He had merely mentioned [Princess] to his elder brother, and casually revealed some impure desires he’d harbored. In return, his brother had nearly broken his legs. Only then did Stanley realize just how frightening an existence [Princess] truly was.
He had nearly dragged the entire Lin family into a bottomless abyss!
“Taurus!” Undoubtedly, the person responsible for him being beaten by his brother was that arrogant young master from Huadu!
Beep, beep, beep!
Right as he cursed that detestable name with a belly full of resentment, his phone suddenly rang. When he glanced at the caller ID, his eyes widened in shock. The person calling was Taurus himself!
Stanley’s hand holding the phone shook uncontrollably. His trembling was caused by extreme fury!
Beep, beep, beep!
The ringing continued, becoming increasingly loud. Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Stanley swiped the screen to answer the call. From the other end came Taurus’ cheerful voice: “Young Master Lin, any updates on that Princess?”
“Screw your ancestors for eighteen generations!” He had barely suppressed his anger until now, but upon hearing “Princess,” Stanley’s rage exploded instantly. After cursing, he decisively hung up and immediately blocked Taurus’ number.
Meanwhile, inside the Zhang family’s mansion in Huadu, Taurus stared blankly at his phone. After a brief hesitation, he finally reacted. “He actually cursed me for no reason? Does he have a death wish?”
His expression changed dramatically, and with rising anger, he called back immediately. However, all he heard from the other end was a busy tone. He tried several more times, but the call wouldn’t go through.
“He blocked me?” Staring at the phone screen, Taurus was fuming. Being cursed so severely without even being able to retaliate felt extraordinarily infuriating. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Taurus quickly dialed another number.
In a hotel in Huadu.
S.K.Y. had just been about to shower when his phone suddenly rang. Initially, he didn’t want to answer. But when he saw the caller was Taurus, he reluctantly picked up.
“Screw your ancestors for eighteen generations!” Immediately, a furious curse came from the other end, followed swiftly by the beep of a disconnected line. Clearly, the caller had cursed and then immediately hung up.
“…” S.K.Y. was left speechless, anger and resentment welling up simultaneously in his heart. “Taurus!” He ground out the name through clenched teeth, his voice dripping with venomous fury, instantly making the room feel colder.
On the floor, S.K.Y.’s shadow abruptly sprouted a pair of crimson blood-red eyes and a wide, gaping bloody mouth!
“Ha, that felt great! A rich man’s stress relief sure is easy, carefree, and enjoyable.” Taurus tossed his phone onto the bed, laughing with childlike innocence. He wasn’t worried about how S.K.Y. might respond. After all, he was just a dog he’d raised himself. Could a mere dog bite back after a few insults?
“Ha… I’m really sleepy. Tomorrow will be busy again.” Feeling a strong wave of drowsiness washing over him, Taurus slowly lay down on his bed, switched off the bedside lamp, and closed his eyes, quickly falling asleep.
Meanwhile, Yaeger had already returned to the City of Chaos, carrying several large and small bags.
“Master!” Little Blue flew over like a bullet. This time, she didn’t aim for Yaeger’s neck. Her target was clear—the bags filled with delicious food!
“You greedy little glutton.” Yaeger shot her a look, mildly annoyed. Then she passed the packed food over. “Make sure Vera 2, 17, and 18 get some too.”
“Of course! Share the blessings, share the burdens!” Little Blue immediately activated her ability, levitating all the food boxes to follow her as she joyfully floated towards the dining area.
Not far away, the three Veras waited eagerly, eyes practically sparkling in anticipation.
“Truly a group of little gluttons.” Yaeger shook her head slightly with a wry smile. Nevertheless, she was very fond of these little creatures. If she weren’t, she wouldn’t pamper them like this.
Leaving the main hall, Yaeger returned to her own room. “I have to head out to the town where Layna is tomorrow morning. Better rest up a bit now.” Lying on the soft bed, Yaeger completely relaxed her body, closing her eyes to rest.
At the same time, in Roc City’s inner district, at the Black Horse Club.
The lavishly decorated club, opulent and dazzling, had already opened for business. Numerous wealthy, bejeweled ladies came and went, creating a lively atmosphere.
“Sister Red!” Suddenly, a respectful voice rang out clearly from outside. Upon hearing this, the previously bustling atmosphere suddenly froze, and everyone immediately turned to look.
