Chapter 945 Reaching London

Chapter 945 Reaching London

The moment his body finally let him fall asleep, his subconscious immediately brought back images of himself, as a demon, where he killed his friends and loved ones, standing atop a mountain made with their corpses.

The nightmares devolved into a bloody battle between him and Khalor, whose army was barely a challenge for him, as the death knight already lay shattered on the ground at his feet.

The necro-drake was entangled with the black dragon Astaroth controlled, and even his other high-level undead were kept at bay by his own summons, as he battled the helpless Khalor.

Calling it a battle wasn't an accurate term, as Astaroth's combat prowess, in this demonic form, far surpassed Khalor's battle ability, and it was over in minutes, as droves of undead lay on the surrounding ground, either shattered, turned to paste or dust, or completely obliterated.

His restless sleep ended as he started fighting Phoenix, when Kary shook him awake as they landed in London.

"Hey, wake up," she whispered, her face showing worry.

"Hmm? Are we there already?"

"No, but we have arrived in London. Are you ok? You were mumbling and tensing in your sleep..." she asked, looking at him with worry.

The images flashed in his mind, but he shook them away.

"Just a nightmare. I'm fine," he said, smiling at her.

He wasn't about to let a bad dream drag his mood down. But he told himself it might be better to stay awake for the rest of the trip.

As the plane taxied its way off the tarmac and to the hangar areas, Alex looked out the window and saw a hangar where a few cars were parked, seemingly waiting for something.

Stopping before that very hangar, the plane shut off as a tanker truck started approaching them from the main airport.

Alex looked out the window.

Outside, he could see three people climb out of the cars before looking at each other with curious gazes.

"Did they get here and wait in the cars without talking to each other?" Alex mumbled to himself.

The Major walked out of her cabin, with Violette, Jonathan, and Cory in front of her, herding them along as she walked toward Alex.

"Simo, right?" she said, walking to him with a smile and extended hand.

"Yes, ma'am. The name is Aapo. Aapo Mäkinen," he said, in a most broken English.

But Kary didn't mind.

She shook his hand, gazing at him inquisitively.

"Pleasure to meet you, Aapo. Please, drop the ma'am. From what I see, we are about the same age," she said, still smiling.

The man nodded, staying silent.

He turned his head to look at Alex, and his eyes flashed with both excitement and a tinge of fear, which didn't escape Kary's discerning gaze.

She giggled lightly, releasing the man's hand.

"You are either quite perceptive, or your instincts are very sharp. You can tell, right?"

The man looked at her, confused.

"Pardon?"

Kary's smile dropped, becoming severe.

"You were wondering how strong he was. But you felt it, didn't you? Alex isn't very good at hiding his strength. I'm sure it was instinct, mostly. But you felt it. How dangerous he is."

Kary released some of her mana, directing it mainly toward the Finnish man, and he paled a bit. This confirmed her thoughts.

His instincts were indeed sharp, considering he wasn't a mage class.

"In any case, welcome to the team," Kary said, retracting her mana entirely, as her smile returned, like it had never gone away.

The man slightly shivered, realizing what he had signed up to join.

'With so many powerful players here, what are we truly going to do?'
