Chapter 82: Snatching Treasures
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This Lightning Berry is mine.
Romo was very happy. He flew out directly and did not hide anymore. Once Romo came out, a powerful aura was immediately released. The three people fighting below were all shocked. They stopped fighting. The lizard-type magical beast used its body to block the Lightning Berry and looked at Romo warily. It even let out a low roar. Although the lizard-type magical beast did not have high intelligence, it had instinctively sensed Romo’s powerful aura and knew that this human was very dangerous.
The three human Great Archmagi gathered together and looked at Romo warily. The level-7 Great Archmage in the lead said, “Senior, you…”!!
“You can all leave now,” Romo interrupted him directly and said coldly.
Upon hearing Romo’s words, the three Great Archmagi were stunned for a moment. Then, anger appeared in their eyes. What Romo meant was very simple, he wanted to snatch the treasure. However, the anger only lasted for a moment. Then, the three of them looked at each other and turned around to leave. They did not have any unwillingness to leave the Lightning Berry. They did not even utter any vicious words. After all, Romo’s strength had been laid bare. Murder and robbery were rampant here. If they were really rash and fought with Romo for what they deserved, the final outcome would likely be the three of them dying in Romo’s hands. Not only would they not be able to obtain the Lightning Berry, they might even die here.
The three of them ran for hundreds of kilometers before stopping. They still looked behind with lingering fear, and were only relieved when they saw that Romo had no intent of pursuing them.
Roar!
After the three of them had left, Romo’s gaze turned to the magical beast. At this moment, the magical beast bared its teeth at Romo and even let out a threatening growl.
“Hmm? Get lost!”
Romo waved his hand casually, and instantly, surging magical power gushed out, forming a large magical hand. It slapped the lizard-type magical beast directly and sent it flying. When the lizard-type magical beast saw that Romo was so powerful, a look of fear appeared in its eyes. It took a look at the Lightning Berry and then at Romo. In the end, it let out a low roar of reluctance, turned around and fled.
Hmph, you’re still sensible. Your intelligence is not bad either. You know you can’t defeat me.
Romo ignored the magical beast and looked at the Lightning Berry. Normally, when the Lightning Berry ripened, there would be six fruits, but now, there were only three fruits left. They emitted tiny electric arcs continuously. Those three fruits had probably been eaten by the lizard-type magical beast. The Lightning Berry contained a large amount of magical power. Even if the lizard-type magical beast was powerful, it could only eat one at a time. If it ate too much, it might explode and die.
Romo kept the three Lightning Berries in his Storage Ring, but left the fruit tree untouched. These natural treasures were all very fragile and precious. There had been basically no cases of successful transplantation. Even if Romo were to take away the fruit tree, it would not be able to survive. He might as well leave it here. Perhaps, it could grow new fruits in the future.
Romo then continued to explore deeper. At this moment, the sky was gradually turning dark, and night was about to fall. Romo calculated the time. He had already been in the Calamity Mountain Range for two days, and Ron should be arriving at the place for the trial soon.
Romo knew that it would take Ron three days to travel, and there should not be any danger along the way. Furthermore, there was Karuman following, so Romo was not worried. Naturally, he did not expend Faith Points to buy the Visitation Talisman. Moreover, if Ron were to really encounter danger, the System would definitely notify him, and even generate an urgent mission. Now that the System had not given any notifications, it meant that Ron was not in danger.
….
Above the clouds, a magic airship was flying slowly. In a window, there was a young face, and it was that of Ron. He was leaning against the window at this moment, looking out at the scenery. It was already late at night, but Ron still did not feel sleepy at all. One reason was because this was Ron’s first time traveling on a magic airship, and he was a little excited. The second reason was the surrounding noise. After all, this was only the most ordinary magic airship. Although they had bought a separate cabin with only him and Karuman, the sound insulation between the cabins was so poor that they could hear clearly what was going on next door, as well as the sounds coming from next to next door. There had even been an argument in the corridor just now and they almost fought. If it had not been for the strict rules that fighting was not permitted on the magic airship and that those guilty of it would be forever banned from taking the magic airship, they would have definitely fought then.
It was precisely because of these reasons that Ron had not rested at all. He looked at Karuman, who was on the bed opposite him. The other party seemed to be completely unaffected by the noise and was sleeping very soundly. It was not known whether he was really sleeping or if he was faking it. Regarding this gatekeeper of the ancestral hall, Ron had not been able to see his cultivation base clearly. It should be known that he was already at the peak of the Great Mage realm, but he was still unable to see the other party’s strength. There was only one possibility, which was that the other party was a Great Archmage. As to which level he was, Ron did not know. Ron would not probe into this matter. After all, the Old Ancestor and the other party had not mentioned this, so there was naturally a reason for them not to mention it.
Hearing the sounds quieting outside, Ron became sleepy and fell asleep. He had just fallen asleep when he was woken up by a commotion. He looked outside. It was still dark, and the magic airship was still in the air.
But why has the magic airship stopped? Could it be that the airship has malfunctioned?
“Shit, there are robbers. There are robbers on our magic airship.”
“Everyone, get up quickly. Come to the deck.”
Hearing the voice outside, Ron was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly. The business of the magic airship was operated by many large forces that had joined hands. To dare to rob on the magic airship would be going against these large forces. The last time such a thing had happened was several years ago, and in the end, that group of robbers were caught the moment they got off the magic airship. Now, the skin of those people was still hanging on display at the ferry point. He had not expected that he would encounter such a thing on his first ride in a magic airship. How unlucky.
Ron looked at Karuman and saw a hint of gloominess in his eyes. He said, “Young Master, let’s go to the deck too.”
Ron looked at Karuman, his eyes flickered, and he nodded, “Alright.”
Then the two of them walked out of the cabin and walked toward the deck with the other passengers.
