Chapter 853: Part 2: Black Metal Company
From MC's perspective:
Tea Shop,
"Don't worry about the price. Just tell me about those commercial airships"
"Which one is best?" I asked while pretending to be enthusiastic.
Lay didn't find any suspicion. He already has a ready-made speech to deal with customers.
"All the 6 commercial companies are good. They have a credible name. They also have many allied forces. So no rogue wizards attack their airships. Unless they have a death wish."
"Among them, the Black Metal Company is a little more powerful compared to others. Because they have partnered with the Royal Force Academy. So both the White Faction and Black Faction Wizard won't offend them," Lay said with a hint of fear in his eyes.
Then he added, "The 2nd most powerful company is Butterfly Company...."
"Stop," I said.
"I would like to hear about the Black Metal Company," I asked. If Elder Galvin and others came to know about this, they would be shocked.
Everyone else is searching for me, here I am thinking about the wealth of the Black Metal Company.
Lay was confused. Everyone else avoids the Black Metal Company. Apart from the influential forces, no one dares to come into contact with them.
Then a look of realization dawned on him. The customer in front of him must have been sent by influential people.
"Big Money, "His eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
Lay said, "Brother, don't worry. I'll tell you what I know but the entry-level ticket for the Black Metal Ship is 10 mid-grade mana stones."
"As for those cabins, it starts from 50 mid-grade mana stones for one person," After saying that Lay is already calculating commission in his mind.
Hearing that I nodded my head before asking, "Is there anyone from big forces that has bought tickets?"
Lay paused for a moment before saying, "Brother, it's forbidden to spill the details. But I can give you a hint. The high-ranking wizards who had entered the Adamont Canyon before might board the ship as well."
A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. Because the timing is good. The turmoil at the Adamont Canyon came to an end. At the same time, the commercial ship is going to escort them.
A look of confusion appeared in my eyes.
"Brother, what happened?" Lay asked. He saw something bothering the customer's mind.
I recollected my thoughts before asking, "I heard the high-ranking wizards have their airships. So why are they interested in the airship?"
Lay smiled and replied, "Brother, I think you have lived in a cave somewhere. Don't you watch the news? Those aircraft are used to transfer seriously injured high-ranking wizards"
"So some of them stayed behind," he added.
Hearing that my doubts became clear.
"Alright, brother. When will you buy the tickets?" Lay asked.
"I'll come later. Now I have to take back this information," I replied to him.
Lay wasn't surprised. He long since predicted that the customer in front of him was just an errand man.
Then we stood up from the seat and walked out of the tea shop. After leaving the building, we parted ways.
Instead of buying tickets, I'm looking for a way to enter the Black Metal Ship sneakily. Then I looked at the time. In a few hours, it will be nighttime.
I can try to enter the ship at that time. After figuring it out, I found some other spot to hide until then.
Time passed,
The whole commercial area is crowded with people. As many of the passengers have already boarded the ship. It's just the V.I.P. ones are yet to arrive.
And they are the ones who book those luxurious cabins. Passengers on the deck have no complaints.
Even though news about the Adamont Canyon made everyone relieved. But still, there is uncertainty. No one can tell that the evil wizard is hiding in the dark to kill them.
So it would take at least a month for normalcy to return.
For the passengers traveling with influential people is another form of safety.
8 P.M
Among the 6 airships, four of them have already left.
Right now, the Butterfly company's airship is ready to depart. Seeing that passengers on the Black Metal Ship became more anxious
Compared to other shipping companies. The ticket prices of the Black Metal Company are high. So these passengers are naturally worried.
Swoosh!
On the other hand, I started approaching the airship sneakily. The level-5 wizards can't sense my presence. The nighttime also provides good cover for me. So I flew past them and landed on the deck.
No one noticed that there was one more person on the airship. When I turned around to look at the cabin. I saw the guards standing in front of them.
My eyes flickered. How to get inside? If these people are standing guard. Then I looked around.
Seeing that there was no other way. I appeared inside the Gregor Mansion. At least, I have half completed the mission.
But it will be difficult to loot.
At the same time, a burly middle-aged man walks around the deck. There is a magic artifact in his palm which can detect the evil mana.
The person is checking whether anyone with a false identity has bought the ticket. Earlier, they have done identity verification before allowing people to board.
Now the Captain is conducting a secondary inspection. As long as there were no evil wizards, the safety of the people could be guaranteed.
Beep!
All of a sudden the magic artifact vibrates in his palm when he walks past a green shirt person. The Captain got alert. If the target notices it, he kills the passengers on the deck.
The captain calmly returns to the cabin. For every airship, there will be a high-ranking wizard behind to protect them.
The protector is not here at this moment. So he is going to inform him. Only the high-ranking wizard can subdue the evil wizard.
On the other hand, the green-shirt person is clenching his fist. The presence of the Captain gave him a warning signal. There is a reason for his presence here.
