Chapter 508

ED:
Leehas mermaid transformation speed was beyond imagination.
Even though the ships of Kravens users were moving swiftly on the surface, to Leeha underwater, they appeared almost stationary.
Well, the mermaid form was faster than the fastest ship in Middle Earth that ignored waves and winds during the crossing of the New Continent Ordinary ships cant compare.
And Blaugrun, who was effortlessly keeping up with him, would have had to be carried by Leeha in his mermaid form in the past.
Comfortable, yes, but not what I expected.
Leeha had hoped for a partner who could kindly and thoroughly introduce him to more of Middle Earth, now that Blaugrun could speak
Blaugrun made it very clear.
Dont see me as a human.
He was a dragon. A dragon with the memories of an Adult, who remembered everything since his hatchling days with Leeha. Middle Earth never makes things easy.
I understand in my head Ah, I shouldve saved the location of the Dragon Palace. How foolish of me.
The location of the Dragon Palace is halfway between the New and Old Continents, in the Sea of Dawn. It takes nearly 60 days by ship, and even with Leehas speed, it would take nearly 30 days in Middle Earth time. Not preparing for a return trip to a city located underwater was an oversight. And then there are the sea creatures they might encounter on their way.
I cant use Black Bass underwater. The good news is my speed has greatly increased. Ill avoid fighting if possible, but if unavoidable, Ill resort to the electric shocker.
Now able to move freely underwater, Leeha could engage in a real close combat situation, unlike the floundering and desperation of the past.
However, he would only resort to this in emergencies, preferring to avoid combat and head straight to the Dragon Palace.
Shall I increase our speed?
What?
I can reduce the journey to about ten days. Oh, with your current speed, it would take 29 days and over 8 hours.
You can reduce it to ten days? Why didnt you use such magic before
Hyeins analysis was accurate. Although Chiyou wouldnt have called them, Sasuke alone couldnt control all the organization members.
Those aware of Chiyou being the head of Shinobigumi were essentially middle managers, each with their factions. For them, now was a chance! If they could rescue Chiyou, they could easily surpass Sasuke and become second in command.
They pretended to follow Sasukes orders while leaking information. Their deaths or wasted time in the village weakened their factions intelligence-gathering capabilities.
Thus, Shinobigumi was self-destructing from within.
About four hours later, nine users had trickled into Chesi Village. Pretending to be nonchalant, their awkward loitering around the square was too conspicuous.
Standby.
Kijung sent a message to everyone. Byulchos users scattered around the village began gathering in the square.
When would Chiyo come? What method would she use this time to escape?
Kijung mused and smiled.
Its pointless anyway.
It all started with Hyeins spatial lock.
Unless Shinobigumi deployed all its members, they couldnt stand against the well-tempered Byulcho, a force to be reckoned with even for major guilds in Minis, not just Pyubiel.
Approximately 5 hours later, the community was abuzz.
[Title: Rumor has it the top ten rankers are fighting each other?]
[Title: Where does Chiyo keep dying? Is she soloing a dragon raid or something?]
[Title: [Breaking] Chiyo falls to 9th in the rankings!]
The operation had evidently taken its toll on Chiyos ranking and reputation. The continual setbacks and losses against Byulcho, especially under Hyeins leadership, showed the effectiveness of their strategy and the reliance of Shinobigumi on Chiyo. With her frequent defeats and the internal struggles within Shinobigumi, the organizations dominance in the virtual world of Middle Earth seemed to be waning.
Ranked 7th, Chiyo faced three deaths, plummeting rapidly to the 9th position.
Now the ranking stood as Ram Hwajung at 7th, Faust at 8th, Chiyo at 9th, and Bobae at 10th.
The significance of falling two places after the third death was profound.
Ram Hwajung and Faust are on the same level. Its the experience points that determine the ranking order.
