"That mask has to be found as fast as possible. The accumulation of the void creature’s hollow core is also another urgent matter."
"It is good that you understand." Black Sethe was relieved, "You and I are now in one body. If you die, I will die too, and I do not wish for you innocently fall into your own carelessness."
Garen nodded his head.
"Perhaps I have been relaxed in this world for too long now…" He came to some realization, "Then, the search for the Twelve Masks will have to speed up."
"As long as you understand that the amount of time we have left is not much," Black Sethe pleasingly went back into hiding.
Walking in the thick and dark forest, Garen had very quickly returned to the previous trees with the round arch root.
Under the roots, the black bonfire ash was still there. Instead, the girl’s shadow was missing.
Garen took a look around, and his gaze stopped upon a dense cluster of black flowers.
"You can come out."
He said in a low voice.
Rod and the rest quietly stopped behind him, as they waited and see if changes would occur.
Soon, among the flowers, a blackish figure that was covered in black mud slowly stood up.
"How did you find me?" The figure gave out a girl’s voice.
"You are too weak."
Garen walked over and pressed his huge hands on her shoulder. She was slightly startled.
Buzz...
A severe yet frequent tremor suddenly rang out. It was as if the girl, Simone’s whole body was shivering but instead, she was shaking much rapidly.
The black mud and dirt that was smeared all over her body kept falling off because of the violent tremors, revealing her pale white skin underneath.
Under the stares of Rod and the rest, as well as Simon’s own attention, something miraculous happened.
It was as if the black mud on Simon’s body melted into a black water-like matter, following the curves of her body and slowly dripped down her body. It stained the of the inner part of her legs and down her heels, slowly flowing down onto the forest grass. Not only was it on her skin, but the dirt on Simone’s clothes all flowed quietly down to the ground, not making a sound.
Just within ten seconds, Simone’s whole body once again turned clean, returning to her usual delicate and pretty frame.
Her small lips were slightly opened, with wide round eyes. It was as if she was afraid to believe what she saw, she did not even dare to blink. She was afraid that if she blinked, everything in front of her would turn into an illusion and disappear.
But the feeling of her dry and cool body kept reminding her that this was not an illusion - This was reality.
"My Lord…" The few Catholics in Rod’s team started praying devotedly. This was absolutely a miracle!
Even Rod himself was stunned, his face wore the expression as if he saw a ghost.
"Damn it! That was not recorded!" He suddenly reacted. The rest also reacted, one after the other. Such a miraculous sight and yet no one recorded it, this was absolutely a huge lost!
Garen looked at reactions of these group of people in a funny way. That move just now would only be used by just upper martial artists who had terrific skills. However, top martial artists could also achieve the same level. Such as the saying "emerge unstained even from the filth", this referred to the realm of top martial artists.
Releasing his hands, Garen walked back to the bonfire heap and started to check through his things. He put on his backpack and checked the remaining amount of his drink.
He was not afraid of being poisoned unless it was a highly concentrated toxic. If not, any others toxins would also help him build up his liver function; it was the same as those who do not consume much alcohol.
Such powerful vitality would show in all ways, not just to the degree of skin defense.
"You failed, I suppose? White Phoenix Base is not a fun place to venture into!" After Simone was shocked, she quickly replied with a cold smile, "There is a twenty-four hours cycle surface surveillance system in the base, and we are not far from there. It will not take them long for them to find out where we are residing at. Then, they would send their elite team, and by that time, you will only be able to flee in panic!"
Simone’s words were distinct with an unforgiving tone, not paying the slightest attention the Rod and his men’s weird expression.
"What kind of people are they?"
She frankly questioned Garen.
"Them? These are some of my friends," Garen answered in a good temper, smiling.
Simone took a few steps to the side of the bonfire, and sat down on his butt, not minding the dirt, "I’m hungry, and I want the eat something. Quickly make me something to eat.
These few days, she had completely lost herself. Since Garen got a hold of her, if you wanted to do anything, he could have already done it. He would not have waited until this moment. So instead of feeling afraid, why not drink and eat well, regulating her own mood.
Garen gave a smile. From his bag, he took out some dried meat, a bottle of pure water and different types of seasoning. First, he lit up the bonfire again, then used a metal can, of which he brought to boil the meat soup. He stood up and took a walk around the surrounding of the forest. After his quick return, there were some extra plant rhizomes and mushroom in his hands; it was frightening looking at the red and green colors on them.
With the same skill, the mud and dirt were immediately shaken off. After rinsing it with water, it was put into the can for boiling.
Rod and his company were looking for some rocks to sit down by the side. After a couple of frightening experiences, they looked very panic-stricken too.
Seeing that Benjamin was busy with preparing his meal, Rod hesitated for a bit.
"Our planes and cars are not far from here. Mr. Garen, why not let’s eat when we return. How does that sound? I have already reserved a room with a feast in the Leonardo Hotel."
They had always taken the main road. With the planes and cars leading the way, they did not even have to walk through this wilderness; they could immediately enter the base. Now, there were a bunch of people, dressed in garments and wore leather shoes, walking on the forest grass. Having huge chunks of mud stuck on the sole of their shoe - Lifting their foot too felt heavy.
"No rush, it will be done soon," Garen smiled as he answered, while he stirred the soup in the can continuously.
As time passed in seconds and minutes, the essence of the soup slowly let out a rich scent. Even Rod, who had a habit of eating good food, could not resist salivating. One by one, his men also felt their saliva stir in their throats. All their attention was quickly captured by that pot of boiling soup in the can.
"In this forest, there are still a lot of things that can replenish your vitality. If we just leave, then it would have been wasted," Garen simply explained.
He then split the soup into a few bowls. The moment the soup was scooped up, she drank without hesitation as she had tried his cooking earlier on. She drank it all in one mouthful. Then very quickly, her eyes looked confused and started drooling from the edge of her mouth, her face revealed a silly smile.
"Hehe… Hehe… Too delicious… It’s too delicious…"
Once she put down her bowl, this girl started dancing and jumping. For a moment, she had seeped into her unconsciousness.
"La~ La la! La! It smells so good… Your body smells so good…" Simone threw herself on him, hugged him and bit him. Her snot and saliva were both dripping, both her eyes in a daze - They completely lost that spirit she had just now.
"Be good… If you listen, I will give you another bowl of soup in a bit."
"Really?"
"Really."
"Alright, I’ll listen. I’ll be good…" Simone acted as if she had completely turned into a child with a few years of IQ. She leaned over on Garen and stopped moving.
Rod, who stood at the side breathed in the delicious scent. At first, he had wanted to drink the bowl of soup. But once he saw this scene, he got the chills for a moment. The look in his eyes changed again and again towards Garen.
After Garen calmed Simone down, he started asking some questions that they still were not clear about.
"Other than this base, does White Phoenix have other bases?"
"They don’t."
"Then do you know where the person in charge of the base, Gremlin went?"
"I don’t know, I just want some soup!" Simone shook her head.
"You just had some. If you do not answer my question seriously, then I will not give it to you," Garen said with a beaming smile.
"Gremlin took Lotus Pearl with her - I don’t know." When Simone mentioned Lotus Pearl’s name, her face revealed an unhappy expression, "Lotus Pearl, that cow! Her smiles are all fake, she thinks I can’t see through it? That slut likes to pee standing up, and she used to be a witch. I saw her in bed with a man, with my own eyes. Then she went and found herself a not-so-secret-boytoy! Haha… Boytoy… She thinks nobody knows, that b*tch!"
Even though Simon was in a situation she was unconscious of, that mean tongue of hers would never go away. Just hearing it gave the group of men cold sweat.
Garen rubbed her brain. Suddenly, Simone gave out a dog-like sound of comfortable hum.
"I apologize. This one here is still of use to me, so I used a slightly special method," Garen quickly smiled at Rob and his men who were frightened by it.
The immense knowledge of subjects he had absorbed from the previous world impacted his high research attainments in hallucinogenic drugs and neuroscience. This soup was made specifically to tackle Simone’s mutation that was stimulated by the Fantasy Fist, and special execution would be directed towards modulating it.
Garen attentively examined Simone’s nerves in her head and found the area that stimulated the Fantasy Fist. Hence, the targeted mixed medicinal soup should continue to stimulate that part of the brain. After some experimentation, he wanted to see if he could once again extract the Invisible Creatures.
He was very curious towards the field of Invisible Creatures. This was an extremely broad spectrum, and it included every creature that the human cannot see; comparing the realms and worlds among them that were far away to a world with light, it would be much, much bigger.
After packing the leftover soup, Garen single-handedly picked Simone up while carrying his backpack.
"Let’s go. Let’s get on your ride for a bit."
"The pleasure is mine!" Rob quickly replied.
Temporarily, he refrained the thought of notifying the higher level authorities. He had to find out the opponent’s ins and outs clearly. Once it had been confirmed...
He also had his own idea; if it was really that hope that the higher authorities had been always looking for, then leaving some free time would also be a golden timing for his prior business relations! If he could hold on to it, then he would be able to keep this friendship for the first time - how precious is that!
A row of people marked the location according to the body device, and very quickly, they found a green helicopter that was parked on an emergency heliport.
The pilot was still smoking beside the plane, but White Phoenix’s airport guards were nowhere to be found. It was obvious that they did not escape. Instead, they must have gone to examine the base of the headquarters.
Seeing that Rod and his men had safely returned, along with them, they brought back two other weird-looking people. One gave out a whine like a dog, and the other was wearing a mask. Looking closely, they only one straight eye. The pilot wanted to immediately say something but was cut off by Rod.
"Leave this place immediately! Go to St. Jeddah City, I want to entertain very important guests!"
"Yes, sir!" The fine training quality the pilot had did not allow him to speak more. They could only obey and hence, he began the procedure of starting the helicopter.
A bunch of people entered the plane, one after the other. As the sound of the huge propeller came on, the green helicopter slowly rose to the sky and sped towards the far distance. It swept through the trees and over the sea, disappearing between the border of forest and sea.
