Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild

Chapter 723 - 351: Ascension_3

After exchanging information, Melegon bound the unconscious one-armed Rams with chains and had a knight take him underground for temporary detention."Such a thing has ascended into the sky, which is the worst-case scenario. Nevertheless, when faced with a conspiracy laid out by unknown forces in advance, there’s no other way. We must use battle to seek a chance for victory." Melegon’s will seemed as solid as steel, unwavering in the face of the Destruction Battleship.

If Li Ang remembered correctly, the leaders of the Order Knight Order had all served in the Order Investigation Corps and dealt with situations in the Demon Disaster Realm before they could take on the position.

"On our side, we don’t have a full Celestial Group. Part of the Flower Sword Group’s elite is needed to defend other islands, and not all of them have come; some are still on standby outside in the sea of clouds."

Melegon looked at Li Ang: "The key force is the Fallen Island Battleship, its Key of Activation."

"Here it is."

Li Ang opened his palm, revealing a pile of fragments.

"I see." Melegon nodded: "Then it’s going to be a grueling battle."

Meimei’s body swayed as if all her strength had been drained away; Li Ang immediately supported her, feeling that she was as light as if she had no bones.

"What’s wrong?"

"Why, even after changing worlds, why is it still like this..."

Seemingly lost in thought, the white-haired girl muttered as if she had lost her soul.

Li Ang had already felt that the young girl was behaving strangely since seeing the Imperial Influence, but he hadn’t expected her to be as despondent as she was now.

"Li Ang," Meimei whispered to him with her head lowered, "perhaps you should escape, take your girlfriends and run to anywhere at the edge of the Aerial Realm, revel in pleasure, and enjoy the last moments of life before the world’s destruction."

"What are you talking about?" Li Ang gripped her shoulders: "That thing is formidable, no doubt, comparable to a stronger Transcendent Demon Beast, but it’s not unbeatable."

"This is just one foe, but the Empire has many backup plans, what then? After that? You will make great sacrifices, and I don’t want to see it, I don’t want to see any of you or your companions die, I don’t want to see it again."

Tears welled up in Meimei’s water-blue eyes as she suppressed a sob and said, "You don’t know, I watched all my friends die one by one, and in this world, aside from the villagers, you’re the people I’ve reconnected with. I don’t want to see you all...

"Enough, stop crying." Li Ang placed a palm on the young girl’s small white-haired head: "The Empire, huh? We’ll see about that."

Looking up to smile at the others, Li Ang said, "Let’s go back to the Mechanical Creation Furnace."

"I obtained the knowledge of the Island Founder before, and after continuously filtering it in my mind, some key insights have been extracted. The moment I saw this Startup Chip, I believed that even if it was shattered, I could reforge it."

Li Ang clenched the fragments of the crystal chip, this thing had previously been dismantled and hidden by the Island Founder, and shattering and reforging was its attribute.

He looked at Meimei: "Rams wanted to force me to make a choice, but I choose neither, I want both."

"Oh, really, you should have said so earlier!" Xiaomo punched Li Ang: "I really thought you would forsake more important things just to capture Rams, that’s not like you."

"Rams is also important; actually, I could have killed him just now, but for him, losing everything is more painful than death. Letting him experience that pain is necessary for all the elders who were once part of The Soul Apex."

They hurried back to the underground; within the flame condensed at the center of the mechanical creation by the Island Founder, the Startup Chip was perfectly reforged, slowly landing in Li Ang’s hand.

Passing the chip to Loken, who had been waiting expectantly at the side, the elder who had similarly witnessed the power of the Destruction Battleship erupted with unrestrained anger.

He held the Key of Activation, leading those most familiar with the Fallen Island Battleship, quickly heading towards the last miracle left by the Island Founder.

"Alright, let this damned Empire feel the wrath of the City of the Ship’s Rudder!"
