The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 255 : To Blood Sea

Cain stared at the man named Bloodless #1 for a moment before clasping his hand and performing a small bow. He did not know anything about the man, but it was clear this one was a powerhouse and strength deserved respect in the Godslayer Humankind Empire.

Bloodless nodded toward Cain, and he began to look at the young man in detail. He noticed an impressive physical constitution and a sharp light appeared in his eyes when he noticed the soul force of this one.

Just like the Collapsing Lightning Duke, Boodless #1 was surprised to see that someone so young as Cain had evolved his soul force to the realm of Wave Champion at level 8.

”So you are the one His Highness sent me to bring to Blood Sea. Your current abilities are remarkable for someone so young. Letʼs go.”

Bloodless #1 said nothing else before turning around and walking out of the residence.

Cain was a little surprised by the overbearing attitude of the man, but he was not bothered too much since all powerhouses had extravagant personalities. He had already packed all his belongings in his space ring, so there was no need to delay things.

As for Luther, he just smiled and did not really care about Bloodless #1ʼs attitude. He just followed Bloodless #1 and Cain, and then the three got in a military vehicle.

The military vehicle moved at an impressive speed, nearly supersonic, but that was too slow for someone like Bloodless #1. He could have easily risen into the sky and reached the exit of the Imperial Lightning Fort in a few seconds.

However, no matter how overbearing Bloodless #1 was, he was not crazy enough to ignore the rules of the Collapsing Lightning Duke.

Soldiers saw the vehicle moving across the fortʼs streets at supersonic speed, and some could recognize Cain inside it. Seeing the greatest geniuses of the Imperial Lightning Fort in a vehicle alongside someone so striking as Bloodless #1 generated wild ideas in those young soldiers, which would surely evolve into even wilder gossip.

Cain couldnʼt care less about the rumors that could spread about him since only those with too much free time on their hands would pay any attention. His mind was not on the bald, pale giant before him.

The only thing Cain perceived from Bloodless #1 was an immeasurable physical strength and nothing more. There was no aura or density of Astral Wave that could suggest a certain cultivation level. For all Cain knew, this man was a Titan.

”How long will it take us to reach Blood Sea?”

Cain did not feel the need to remain quiet the entire journey, so he asked a question that had been bugging him for the past few days. He had a map of the entire Collapsing Lightning Sector in his [A.I. Chip Module], but special locations like Blood Sea were not in it.

Even with the military clearance of a Major, he had no access to that information. Of course, he attempted to use the [Hacking] tool to learn about it, but he only got a broad estimate.

Bloodless #1 had closed his eyes once he got into the vehicle and did not open them even after hearing Cain speak, but he did answer.

”How long we take to reach the Blood Sea will depend on you.”

That was not a very useful answer, but there was nothing Cain could do about it other than nod. The rest of the trip was silent, with neither of the three speaking to the other until they finally reached a massive gate that led to the outside.

Just as Bloodless #1 and Cain exited the military vehicle, Luther spoke toward the last.

”Major Laurifer, before you go, I must convey a message from the Collapsing Lightning Duke.”

Cain stared at Luther for a moment. There was no reason for a military order from the highest commander of the Imperial Lightning Fort not to be delivered directly through the [A.I. Chip] unless you want other people to hear it.

Bloodless #1 also understood the meaning behind Lutherʼs actions, and there was no expression on his face, but he did focus on the bald man.

”The Collapsing Lightning Duke orders you to return to the Imperial Lightning Fort within a year. If you do not comply, the First Pillar will go after you. I advise you to come back since the Leader of the Collapsing Lightning Pillars is a madman who makes havoc wherever he goes.”

Luther spoke to Cain, but he glanced at Bloodless #1 when he mentioned the First Pillar, and there was a clear intent in his eyes.

The Imperial Lightning Fort will respect the right of the Blood Duke to summon Cain toward Blood Sea, but they should know that if their scheme resulted in the young manʼs death, there would be consequences.

Bloodless #1ʼs eyes narrowed when he heard the name First Pillar. If there were two people he would really not want to fight, those would be the Collapsing Lightning Duke and the First Pillar. He did not say a word and just walked toward the fortʼs exit.

”I will make sure to remember the words of the Collapsing Lightning Duke.”

Cain clasped his hand and performed a small bow toward Luther before going after Bloodless #1.

Luther saw the duo leave and commanded the vehicle to take him back into the Titan Tower. There was nothing he could do other than wish Cain good luck and hope to see the young man again in the future.

Cain exited the fort and searched for Bloodless #1ʼs ship, but there was nothing, and before he could even ask what kind of vehicle they would take, the man pointed to the northwest.

”Blood Sea is 44.210 kilometers in that direction.”

Bloodless #1 calmly began to walk in that direction.

Cain stared at Bloodless #1, and then a light of realization appeared in his eyes as he understood what was happening.

”We are going to walk all the way!?”

The distance that Bloodless #1 just described was larger than the circumference of the Old World, so walking all the way was crazy.

”Not walk, run.”
