BXBX NOVEL Chapter 462 Lynns Ride
Chapter 462 Lynn\'s Ride
"However, that last match. I am totally speechless at the speed he was moving and strength he wields."
"Is that why he refused to show his cultivation out in the open? Like that previous time, he had been so reluctant to get out there and remove the Ruby Rat gangsters. I\'m sure any other cultivator who has that kind of strength would like to do that in a jiffy and to show off who\'s boss." Qiu Yue remarked while she took out a bottle of water from her storage ring and after taking a sip, she shared it with Lynn and the penguins.
"Perhaps? Maybe he is keen on keeping his real strength hidden so his rivals such as the Ruby Rat Triad gang members will underestimate him in case they decide to do something more drastic." Lynn deduced as she also took out a few packets of biscuits to feed the penguins.
"Speaking of them, they\'ve hardly bothered us after Tiangong District Police stationed their policemen and increased their regular patrols by two fold." Qiu Yue checked the progress of the construction of the Dungeon Fortress City as a force of habit.
"Hahah! Yes I know. Instead, the policemen and the Ruby Rats had been coming to my restaurant way too often for comfort. The System and Jin don\'t seem to plan to prohibit them from coming in, as long as they behave themselves. Some even asked if there were any plans to sell the theme park food as a side menu." Lynn shared with Qie Yue. There were times she wondered if the Triads and Police would ever fight in her restaurant.
"Are you going to do that?" Qiu Yue turned in order to get a piece of biscuit from her too.
"Probably not, it spoils the restaurant feeling…imagine eating Churros in there. It …I don\'t really know…kind of feels weird, doesn\'t it?"
"Not to me, I like those churros. They\'re awfully crunching, piping hot and sugary sweet! Way better than this biscuit that\'s for sure. Speaking of that, why did you not bring some of the cooked food with you? Actually, why are we not teleporting back for a rest before coming back here?" Qiu Yue asked as she munched on the biscuit.
"Because…we have our answer ready from the Sub System." Lynn showed the results of the Amulet from her phone to Qiu Yue.
"Sub System has located a probable signal that matches the frequency of energy the amulet emits. However, Sub System is unable to pinpoint the exact location and can only guide Sub System Users to the vicinity of that particular point."
"So, something like a tracking device? It seems like it\'s still moving." Qiu Yue noted as she looked at the phone screen closely.
"Please hurry, the signal is already weak enough. Anymore waiting and Sub System might not be able to track it down." The Sub System warned the Sub System Users that they were at least hundreds of kilometres away and the signal was almost too weak to be traced down.
"Judging from the distance, even activating our cultivation will be a hassle to travel that far. Shame Jin doesn\'t really have any minions that are well versed with long distance." Qiu Yue talked to herself out loud.
"Ah! Wyrstrker has a wyvern but…urgh it might be too small for the both of us to ride. Or maybe Mr Oink! But urgh, I remembered how he moved too much for comfort and the seats were... urgh." Qiu Yue said to herself as she checked the last bits of her construction tabs on her phone.
"Lynn, how about asking Jin to get us one of those Jeep that he -Woah!" Qiu Yue was surprised by sudden booming sound that was right beside her, and when she looked up, there was a slick looking motorcycle rumbling its engines in front of her.
Its twin turbo engines were bursting exhaust out of its vents and Lynn threw a helmet at Qiu Yue while she took out her scratch resistant jacket to wear.
"You are riding this?!?" Qiu Yue asked the obvious question as she had difficulty wearing her helmet. Penguin Kido asked her to squat and assisted her with the helmet by hitting it hard on her head while the other penguins had their own mini combat cycles as well.
The motorcycles were all due to Hou Fei. When he was reviewing the armaments with Jin in the terrace house dining table, Lynn happened to hear how they needed vehicles for the upcoming Demon Rat Wars, especially since they had lots of ground to cover.
Because of the successful Goblin War, the System had rewarded Jin with a huge sum of budget for the Demon Rat War and the constant net profit that was flowing in allowed him to review the type of armaments they could use.
That was also the time when Lynn considered getting her own combat cycle and if possible for her penguins too. Hou Fei\'s eyes lighted up the moment he heard combat cycles and smirked at Jin.
The boss understood that expression and decided to provide Lynn with a budget to purchase them. After all, the ninjas could make use of the bike\'s high mobility, and Lynn hardly requested things from him.
"I never dreamed of being able to find a fellow motorcyclist enthusiast in this store!" Hou Fei sounded elated as he immediately brought out a magazine and a suitcase along with it from his storage ring. The magazine detailed various famous bikes that were on sale and when Lynn was previewing them, Hou Fei opened his suitcase and showed the modified blueprints of such bikes for the use of combat.
"You are intending to use military gear parts on a civilian motorcycle?" Lynn asked and Hou Fei smile got even wider.
"You did say you want a combat cycle right? If you do not include engines made especially from the military, how fast do you think you could go?" Hou Fei reasoned, and she guessed he was right.
"The System should be able to fix it up for you once I confirm the delivery. Plus, I heard from Jin that you guys have some Lost Tech machine that allowed you to do wonders such as copying a whole item. So I will acquire two of the motorcycles and stuff them with as many items as possible. Don\'t worry, one of them will be rescaled to your penguin\'s size."
"Will that affect the output of the engine?" Lynn was worried, and Hou Fei patted her on her shoulder.
"Fear not. When it comes to motorcycles, and military weapons. Nothing is impossible for this old snake." Hou Fei had indeed accomplished the seemingly impossible by delivering the motorcycles in two days time as well as a few crates of military gear to be fitted into the combat cycle.
Niu Lang, their new in house mechanic, along with the robot crawlers began to fix it up for Lynn, and the rescaled version was later placed in the counterfeiter for production.
"You can ride a bike?! Damn it you are too cool! How did you even get one in the first place?" Qiu Yue asked after Kido fixed her helmet.
"Long story short Hou Fei is living up to his name as a weapons dealer! Come on, grab onto me. We have a lot of catching up to do." Lynn signalled Qiu Yue to get behind her and after which she hand signalled the other penguins on the combat cycles. The booming engines from the combat cycles suddenly turned silent, and it was apparently a feature that the Niu Lang added especially when he believed the Ninjas needed stealth riding.
It was a high level anti sound inscription charm which he got from Octofussy and placed them onto the roaring V13 turbo twin engines. When all the engines went silent (Even though they were still shaking violently!), Lynn gave the okay sign to move, and Qiu Yue grabbed on to Lynn\'s waist tightly.
The combat cycles went from 0 to 110km/hr in 3 seconds, and if the people riding them were not cultivators, they probably would have flown off or broken their arms from the inertia drag alone. Not only that, the combat cycles were versatile enough to traverse on any terrain because of the custom made wheels which Hou Fei obtained as well as the multi-tiered suspensions.
However, there was more to it than just speed, and while Lynn hoped she did not have to use them, she was equally eager to show off to Qiu Yue. (Even though right now, the red panda cultivator seemed like she was hanging onto dear life from the high speed ride. (or grabbing!)
---------------------，
"Original Bellator Kraft, another wave of information was sent in by Malware Foxy. On a side note, the government has finally taken action regarding the scapegoat criminal." The System reported, and Kraft used his newly acquired knowledge to search for the CCTVs that were linked near the criminal\'s location.
"Black suits, black spectacles and armour civilian vehicles. Seems like they are taking this seriously." Kraft spoke to himself. The black suit agents were not pulling any punches, in fact, they were severely brutal towards the criminal, and a look at their tactics had shown Kraft that they were highly skilled. "Looks like Grade 10 and above."
Kraft had made sure the hacker involved in human trafficking was implicated as planned. Before the agents had arrived, he had left a little present on his private computer. By placing a few headings which Malware Foxy had given him during the first wave of information, they would have sufficient reason to suspect him and have him investigated. Unless they were incompetent, the investigation should then lead to the human trafficking case and thwart the whole syndicate\'s operations.
"What a nice feeling to do something pleasant for the society." Kraft smiled to himself, making sure he had left no tracks behind and then proceeded to open the new package by Foxy. More incriminating things about the politicians and their party as well as dirt on various well known individuals whose net worth was well over the billions of Yuan.
However, there was still no information on the Panda Clan list, Banned Emperor or this Ryuli which Jin had mentioned. If not for the fact that Kraft wanted to play safe, he would not have chosen this method. Instead, he would brute force against the database and find the information and then get out. Unfortunately, that would put his master\'s store reputation at stake and the System highly recommended the alternative.
"Urghh!! So bored and Jin\'s battle was way too fast! Can\'t believe I had any expectation for that fox girl. Such a disappointment!" Kraft complained to the System. He weighed his options on what to do to relieve his boredom.
He could go and pester Jin, but that would mean he would have to see old hagged Birdy again. However, Yuan and Jin seemed to be discussing something important, and he guessed he could eavesdrop on them. Else, he could either wait once again for Foxy to send another batch of information or wear his fox mask and openly disturb some of the cultivators in the WunderPanda Theme Park.
"Maybe harass some of those Rats or Tigers." Kraft thought to himself as he twirled his chair around in boredom.
"If Original Bellator Kraft has nothing else to do, System will recommend Kraft to assist Minotaur Maid Sebastia in her scouting mission as ordered by User." System suggested.
"Why? What\'s wrong with her? I thought she had things under control?" Kraft guessed doing some more practical work would be a good enough distraction for him, so he agreed. "In return, I expect you to notify me as soon as the next batch of information comes in. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING WITHOUT ME!" Kraft warned the System as it teleported him to Sebastia.
"Ah?! Bellator Kraft? To what do I owe the honour of you being here?" Sebastia asked without being embarrassed when she had to remove the cosmetic inscription and was currently in the midst of changing her clothes after a quick shower.
"Hmm, nice body." Kraft praised and Sebastia shyly thanked him for his compliment. "The System assessed that you require some help for your future plans."
"Oh? The System noticed it? And here I thought I had to improvise a little. But with you here, it should make things easier." Sebastia said as she tied her hair up away from her curved horns at the side.
"Of course! Who do you think I am?" Kraft smirked evily as he folded his arms to pose a little. "So, what\'s the matter? The System did not specify anything to me."
"The Demon Rat Captain of Uote Town is planning to bring me along to the capital which is currently heavily guarded. I might be a decent scout, but I cannot possibly search or map the whole area on my own. I did ask if I could bring a close friend with me, citing the reason that both of \'us\' never see the capital before."
"Flame Ripper was ordered by Gold to search for the remaining Elder Demons as well as the hideouts that Silver had marked for him. As for Meomi… I am unsure what she will do when she encounters those high ranking rats."
"That Rat Captain allowed you to do that? I thought Demon Rats are inflexible bunch of people." Kraft chuckled.
"\'Your friend, my friend\'. Urgh" Sebastia had tried to copy the Demon Rat Captain tone as she activated her cosmetic inscription once again. "So yeah, I need someone to map the area and thought the System could provide me with some assistance. I had considered having another Minotaur to accompany me, and at some point, change into my real form to map the area. Of course, this could have run the risk of them noticing my current form disappearing and getting suspicious."
"Sure, why not? I have time to spare, and besides, you\'ve asked the right people." Kraft replied and each and every fox under his disposal appeared all around the room as if they had been already watching her from the beginning of the conversation. (Of course, except for Pei and Rex.) They all simultaneously nodded their heads in unison and it did creep Sebastia a little.
"Oh yea, also great job on improvisation, I totally did not expect you to choose the bloody route of killing the resistance to gain the rats\' trust," Kraft noted amused as he looked out of the window of the pathetic small inn room.
"Aren\'t you going to put on the cosmetic inscription?" Sebastia asked as she heard a knock at the door and went to answer it.
"Why should I?" Kraft\'s face had already changed shape and featured a scar right beside his cheek. "I am after all THE counter intelligence agent."
