I just became the Pirate King, and you're telling me I also time-traveled at the same time.

Chapter 708 Unexpected Situation!

Therefore, Miss Hugh found the current sparring session utterly boring.

The sparring officially began, and Miss Hugh took the initiative, rushing towards the woman in front of her at the first moment.

As her body swayed, her knee rose and struck Heloise at a precise angle.

Completely unaware of the sharpness of Miss Hugh's attack, Heloise appeared somewhat flustered, but quickly responded accordingly.

As she retreated rapidly, she placed her arms in front of her body.

At the same time, she raised her right leg, intending to kick Miss Hugh away.

Unfortunately, Miss Hugh had already anticipated her strategy and easily dodged the attack, then poked Heloise in the waist with her finger.

This means that if Miss Hugh used even more power, she could insert her fingers into Heloise's kidneys in an instant.

"You're very strong. I was overestimating myself."

Heloise took a deep breath with a bitter expression, then forced a smile onto his face.

Although losing the game was frustrating for her, it also meant that the three of them working together might actually be able to kill the rock serpent and avenge their teammates.

"You haven't received systematic training. Although your physique is there, your combat skills are indeed somewhat lacking."

Miss Hugh finally showed a kind smile.

She quite admires people who can humble themselves in time.

Seeing this, Chu Yang felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.

"It seems that at this point in time, Lady Heloise has not yet grown into the extremely powerful female war goddess of later generations."

"However, given enough time, Ms. Heloise can absolutely kill any god she sees."

"I just didn't expect Miss Hugh to be so considerate of others."

Chu Yang's mind was filled with a jumble of thoughts.

In his opinion, even someone with a physical constitution or combat skills superior to Miss Hugh might not be able to defeat her.

As an exceptional individual in the arbitration sequence, Miss Hugh can certainly gain an advantage by intimidating her opponents with her unique authority.

Not to mention that before she left, she obtained a special and extraordinary item from Manhattan that allowed her to predict the direction of attacks in a timely manner.

Therefore, it is very difficult for anyone to defeat Miss Hugh in close combat.

This is certainly true, at least among lower-level sequencers.

After witnessing Miss Hugh's strength, Ms. Heloise felt even greater awe for Chu Yang.

After Mr. Abdul completed the signing of the contract, Ms. Heloise began to explain the rock anaconda in more detail.

"My teammates and I once explored a cave that was located on a very remote island."

"As far as I know, there is no known shipping route to that island; we got there ourselves by small boat."

"If the three of us need to travel together, we will also need to rent a smaller boat."

"We also need some professional sailors to travel with us."

"However, I don't have much money left, so you might have to pay for some of the intelligence costs first."

Ms. Heloise was very embarrassed when she said this.

She even felt that Chu Yang might refuse to continue the transaction with her at any moment.

However, Chu Yang nodded in agreement without hesitation.

As far as he knew, Ms. Heloise was a captain, which would have saved him the biggest expense in hiring crew members.

Sure enough, Ms. Heloise then explained her abilities as captain.

"I don't have much sailing experience right now, but given enough time, I can definitely become one of the world's top captains."

When Ms. Heloise spoke of this, her eyes shone brightly.

"Let's do as you say. How about we meet in three days? Is that enough time?"

Chu Yang paid part of the payment in advance and then arranged a meeting time with Ms. Heloise.

After the transaction was officially completed, Chu Yang, along with Miss Xiu and Mr. Abdul, returned to the school grounds.

The three of them simultaneously removed their masks and disguises.

Mr. Abdul let out a long sigh of relief, combing his arms as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

"To be honest, I don't really enjoy hosting these extraordinary trade fairs all the time."

"But these gatherings have already taken shape and have gained the support of the sect, so I have no choice but to continue."

Mr. Abdul first grumbled, then began to recount what he knew about Ms. Heloise.

"That lady has attended the trade fair more than three times already."

"From what I understand, she has been here for at least half a month."

"At least outwardly, this woman appears to be quite trustworthy."

"Aside from his adventure partners, who were all wiped out recently, everyone else had a very pleasant impression of him and how well they worked with him."

After Mr. Abdul finished speaking, he couldn't help but reach out his hand one last time.

"Anyway, with your witness to this collaboration, there shouldn't be any unexpected issues."

"Even if that lady has some ulterior motives in mind, she probably won't bring them out."

Based on the meeting and cooperation just now, Chu Yang could tell that Mr. Abdul was quite intimidating at that trade fair.

At the very least, any extraordinary individual who wants to continue participating in this trade fair would not easily offend Abdul.

Moreover, Abdul was also witnessing the final stage of the transaction, using extraordinary items and his own special abilities to further secure the deal.

"There are many times when neither my abilities nor the abilities of the items I use are omnipotent."

"If someone with ulterior motives really wants to scheme against me, they'll probably suffer the same fate as me."

Mr. Abdul gave a somewhat bitter smile.

It's obvious that he's been through something similar before.

Chu Yang did not ask any further questions, since this topic involved a complete denial of Mr. Abdul.

Suddenly, Miss Hugh, who had just gone in to tidy up the two people's living quarters, came out.

Chu Yang glanced over and found that Miss Xiu, who had returned to her original appearance, still looked as pure and lovely as ever.

Chu Yang couldn't help but reveal a knowing smile.

Before Miss Hugh could press for more information, he quickly regained his composure.

Time flew by, and that night, just as Chu Yang was about to fall asleep, he heard a terrifying roar suddenly coming from the distance of the street.

It was as if a ferocious beast had suddenly appeared in that direction and started attacking passersby.

Chu Yang sprang out of bed with a quick movement, dressed himself, and just as he opened the door, he saw Miss Xiu, also dressed neatly, walking out beside him.

"Why hasn't Mr. Abdul come out?"

Miss Hugh turned her head and looked at Abdul's tightly closed door not far away.

"That gentleman is probably still in the maze farming credit points, and he won't be out anytime soon."

Chu Yang shook his head, somewhat amused.

However, this way he doesn't need to worry about Mr. Abdul's safety.

After all, not many people could easily break into the labyrinthine secret realm personally created by Emperor Roselle.

"Do you think we should call Mr. Abdul over as well? After all, he's a local."

Miss Hugh suddenly made a suggestion.

After careful consideration, Chu Yang felt that the suggestion made a lot of sense, so the two of them went to the entrance of the maze together.

Finally, Mr. Abdul was awakened in a way that had been agreed upon beforehand.

Shortly after waking up, Mr. Abdul heard a loud roar coming from the street, and his expression became even more serious.

He took out a disc-shaped object, and after a brief examination, his expression became even more solemn.

"If I'm not mistaken, one of the church's previous seals has been shaken."

"There is a monster under strict guard in the sealed land, and that guy is very likely to break free."

Mr. Abdul immediately revealed the answer.

"Could this small city be sealing away a monster?"

Chu Yang exclaimed in disbelief.

Every anomalous creature that can be called a monster deserves the attention of intermediate to high-sequence Extraordinaries.

Such monsters are extremely terrifying; once released or escaped, they will create hellish dangers on earth.

Therefore, monsters are usually only strictly guarded by a large number of people sent by the church.

Logically speaking, such a monster could never appear in such a remote place.

The number of sectarian guards here is definitely insufficient.

"It's a long story, but as far as I know, that monster was born in this small town."

"If I hadn't been researching the labyrinthine secret realm for several years, I probably wouldn't have known anything about that monster."

As Mr. Abdul led Chu Yang and his companion hurriedly outside, he muttered a few words of explanation.

After turning a corner, he arrived at his office, took several extraordinary items, and carefully wore them under his clothes.

This was also the final preparation he made before the battle.

"How did we get involved in the monster incident again?"

Although Chu Yang knew there was no way to avoid it, he still felt a bit of a headache.

He only wanted to hide away with Miss Hugh for more than a month.

After finishing my business and returning home, I can then naturally make contact with the Fool Klein.

Who would have thought that their peaceful life, which should have been progressing smoothly, would be disrupted once again by a sudden monster.

"Actually, I should have realized this a long time ago. The church members haven't visited that sealed place in a long time."

"If they had properly cared for the sealed land, there would have been no way that monster would have shown any signs of breaking through the seal."

"I now suspect that the sealed land may have given rise to other anomalous creatures or phenomena."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to hear the noise from there even though we're at school."

The three walked quickly, Mr. Abdul's expression was very serious.

On the way, Miss Hugh suddenly spoke up, "I heard a couple of days ago that some unusual creatures have appeared in that direction."

"It's just that those abnormal creatures are relatively weak."

Miss Hugh brought this up because one of the main ingredients for her potion to advance to the next stage was some of the materials from that monster.

Even without tonight's incident, she would still have gone there with Chu Yang in person.

"Your Excellency, since the sealed land is so important, why have the church suddenly neglected it?"

This area not only contains the entrance to the labyrinth, but also the place where such an important monster is sealed.

From any perspective, the church should not overlook this.

Chu Yang was very puzzled by this.

"Actually, it's much more complicated when you get to the point."

"The most important reason is that the city is too small and the population is too small."

"The church has focused most of its attention on the port area and has no interest or energy to pay attention to the situation in this small city."

"Besides, this is a colony of the Kingdom of Rune, and nominally it should be under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Rune's military."

When Mr. Abdul spoke of this matter, he even seemed somewhat dismissive.

"It seems this guy has a lot of issues with the military of the Kingdom of Rune."

Chu Yang muttered to himself.

He began to carefully consider the scenes that had unfolded since he arrived in the city.

He always felt like he was neglecting something.

Suddenly, he remembered a familiar figure he had seen at the trade fair.

"This is bad news. That guy must be a member of an underground cult. It seems like that cult is all about causing trouble."

"So everything that happened tonight is related to that guy?"

Chu Yang almost lost his composure.

When the three had traveled about a third of the way, they suddenly heard loud artillery fire in the distance.

"This is terrible, those guys in the military have opened fire."

"It seems there are quite a few anomalous creatures there."

Mr. Abdul's expression changed completely.

If the military forces of the Kingdom of Rune cannot hold off those anomalous creatures, then even with the added strength of the churches in the port, they may not be able to withstand a large-scale attack from them.

In this way, the entire small city may fall completely.

How can he continue to stay here, and how can he enter the labyrinthine secret realm to explore?

Thinking of this, Mr. Abdul's expression became increasingly anxious.

"Let's sneak over there slowly and find an opportunity to help."

Chu Yang immediately made up his mind, and Miss Xiu, who was standing next to him, also emphasized it.

If Xiao Chen is captured, the two of them will definitely not be able to escape either.

They might not even be able to leave the port by boat.

"But this is truly a case of collateral damage."

A bitter expression appeared on Chu Yang's face.

Meanwhile, the news has also reached the medium-sized church of the Storm Church, which is the closest to the church.

The priest there gave clear instructions immediately.

The nearest squads of Punishers have all set off. (End of Chapter)
