Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 702: Section 697 - The Bad Must Die
"Chirp chirp!"
The Dragon-Slaying Sparrow, having heard the news, rushed to the hotel rooftop where Her Royal Highness the Princess had just arrived. It flew straight toward its father's shoulder, pecking away... this little creature with a combat strength of negative five.
Chief Bodyguard Riva's expression changed slightly, and in an instant, he saw the creature in a new light.
He no longer dared to treat it as a frail little bird, involuntarily taking a step closer to the boss.
After all, it was his duty to be cautious of any existence that could threaten his boss.
Moreover, by now, no one would underestimate this seemingly fragile creature. The flock of Pure Light Sparrows that blotted out the sky was a terrifying force capable of vaporizing a Giant Dragon on the spot.
The power of the Light Great Forbidden Spell could only be matched by a large yield Tactical Nuclear Weapon, especially in terms of localized destructive effects, with the former being slightly superior.
"Chen Fei, you've finally come back. Xiao Jiu did something earth-shattering today," said Princess Lin Ziyu without a hint of jealousy.
There wasn't much difference to her between a chick she had hatched herself and her own flesh and blood, especially because the effect of the "Imprint Effect" was comparable to a Magic Contract and irreversible.
The Sixth Rank Pure Light Sparrow could slay dragons not just due to its innate talent, but also because of the astounding resources Chen Fei had invested in it. As an Imperial Family Youngster, the Princess was financially capable, but she would face criticism and accusations of foolishness that could damage the Royal Family's reputation—so many resources spent on cultivating a seemingly inconsequential Pure Light Sparrow.
"Mr. Randon just told me that Xiao Jiu killed a Metallic Giant Dragon."
Chen Fei nodded to show he was aware, but didn't express much surprise.
It was just killing a Metallic Giant Dragon; he had done the same, and if it weren't for the adult dragon escaping quickly, he might have doubled his feats.
It turned out that the Little Bird could indeed be relied on at a critical moment, making all his dedicated efforts worthwhile.
For Chen Xiao'er, who was raising a Magical Beast for the first time, his worldview began to skew; clearly buoyed by success, not every Pure Light Sparrow could reach the level Xiao Jiu had achieved.
"Do you realize what this means?"
Every princess would want such a Little Bird, but sadly, Xiao Jiu was one-of-a-kind.
"The Sky Dragon City might view the Pure Light Sparrow clan as a threat to the Dragon Clan, turning the dragons into a laughingstock. Still, the current Dragon King is capable of anything."
Though a native of Blue Star and new to Cangqiong Star, Chen Fei still had a certain understanding of Sky Dragon City.
Beyond being an important administrative center for the Dragon Clan, the city was a floating rock from beyond the skies and a popular tourist attraction, where the dragons, harried by tour guides and tourists, were truly fed up.
"Hehe, indeed!" Princess Lin Ziyu pondered for a moment and then helplessly nodded in agreement.
The Slan Royal Family had close relations with the Dragon Clan, or else so many young dragons and even dragon eggs wouldn't be entrusted to the Royal Family for nurturing.
The current Dragon King was known to be the most unpredictable among the Dragon Kings; after all, being a Metallic Dragon meant that unpredictability was part of its nature. No decree it issued could ever come as a surprise.
After all, declaring Sky Dragon City open to all Intelligent Species as a tourist attraction was nonsensical enough.
Not seeing Teacher Shen, Chen Fei directly inquired of the Princess, "How are things at the hotel?"
With many matters in disarray and plans unable to keep up with changes, he couldn't stay at the hotel to guard it all the time.
"Just now, the 'Hundred-Legs Gang' suddenly rebelled. It's a good thing you left a Shadow Wolf with Secretary Shen; otherwise, it would've been bad."
Princess Lin Ziyu concisely reported the urgent incident that had just occurred.
Even without the Shadow Wolf, she and Louis Landon's bodyguard team could easily suppress those gang members, but before that, Shen Fei could have been endangered, and those gang members who were more trouble than they were worth could have caused even bigger problems. After all, they were professionals at wreaking havoc.
Snorting through his nose, Chen Fei spoke indifferently, "It looks like this 'Hundred-Legs Gang' cannot be kept around anymore!"
With a weapon at hand and a heart full of killing intent, if it had been before he joined the Aircrew Base, he probably would have thought, "Oh my, Black Community, poor people shouldn't fight with bad guys, better run away." He certainly wouldn't have been as ready to lift a slaughtering knife toward the gang members as he was now.
When they had integrated the "Hundred-Legs Gang," Chen Fei and his people had obtained the personal information of all gang members. If he really wanted to annihilate them, he could ensure not one of them could escape.
"The opposition was suppressed by the Shadow Wolf in no time, with the dead and crippled unable to cause any more trouble. Kano's position as the boss is now secure."
Princess Lin Ziyu didn't go into detail, but the information she shared was enough for Chen Fei to guess the situation.
"It turns out that 'Mute' Kano is indeed loyal. We'll see how he performs next. If he doesn't satisfy me, I'll wipe out the 'Hundred-Legs Gang.'"
"As Princess Lin predicted, Chen Fei clearly saw the situation. Now that he was in touch with the Rebel Army's 'Radiant Tiger' Legion, a local gang had become redundant; how could their execution compare with that of the rebels?
Everyone in the world pursues profit; everything under heaven is in strife over it.
If there was no benefit, "Mute" Kano would undoubtedly be the first to lead a rebellion.
"You really haul in quite a catch at the Xingdu Kush Mountain Area, even picking up a Magical Beast like the Shadow Wolf."
Lin Ziyu didn't envy Chen Fei for having Xiao Jiu; instead, she envied Shen Fei. The Shadow Wolf had hidden itself so well, being utterly committed to staying concealed—a Dark Monster that preferred lurking and only emerged when necessary. It was no wonder she hadn't received any relevant information.
"Well, it is the Aircrew Base, with more mutants and Magical Beasts around and fewer people. That Shadow Wolf is the local Wolf King."
Chen Fei shrugged nonchalantly; he was well accustomed to the chaotic and abnormal ecological environment within the patrol area of the Aircrew Base.
Even a Husky could be a Wolf King; the Magical Beast Shadow Wolf was truly impressive.
"You've taken away the Wolf King, what about the local wolf pack? Is the new Wolf King just an ordinary wolf?"
Princess Lin Ziyu was slightly surprised; she hadn't expected that the Shadow Wolf hiding by Secretary Shen Fei's side had such an origin. It wasn't merely a simple Shadow Wolf.
"Er, it's not an ordinary wolf, it's an ordinary human, I'm the new Wolf King."
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
Chen Fei touched his nose awkwardly, after all, this was a tradition of the wolf pack.
Whoever defeated the previous Wolf King in a one-on-one fight would become the new Wolf King, be it a Husky, a Shadow Wolf, or a human. The wolf pack accepted this; obedience to the stronger was instinctive. Moreover, Chen Fei had created a Rabbit Valley that was almost a disaster; the rabbits running all over the place were enough reason for the whole "Genuine Fragrance" Combat Flight Squadron to be dispatched on an extermination mission.
"You really know how to have fun!"
Her Royal Highness the Princess instantly conceded.
A tempest in a teapot, just an Aircrew Base and yet it produced a Wolf King of the Human Race. Are the eyes of those wolves blind?
(Wolf packs recognize each other by scent, not by sight, truly blind with open eyes... It's possible in reality for a human to become a Wolf King, and there are several examples of this.)
"Chen Fei, someone is looking for you outside. It's Minante from the Rebel Army."
Chief Bodyguard Riva interrupted the conversation between Chen Fei and Princess Lin Ziyu as he received a transmission on his walkie-talkie.
Although the Rebel Army had blocked the civilian communication networks, the short-range walkie-talkie channels were still usable, given that the regional communication power of walkie-talkies and relay stations was much stronger than the interfering signals.
"He's here to deliver communication equipment. The hotel can resume outside calls, though they will be monitored."
Chen Fei immediately guessed Minante's intention; he didn't expect the other party to arrive so quickly, right on his heels.
Minante probably went back to the "Radiant Tiger" Legion's camp, picked up the stuff, and hurried over.
"Resume calls? That's great news."
Chief Bodyguard Riva was both shocked and delighted.
Once Chen Fei left the hotel, everyone would involuntarily lose contact with the outside world. If they could maintain a clear signal at all times, that would be a huge help.
-
Upon reaching the entrance of the hotel, Chen Fei saw Minante holding a box, with his Assembled Combat Aircraft parked two hundred meters away.
Minante's attention was clearly not on the hotel but rather turned to look in the direction where the Metallic Dragons had been annihilated, less than 500 meters away, still within sight.
"What are you looking at?"
Chen Fei called out, bringing back the other's attention.
"Chen Fei, you're back? Did you do it?"
At last, Minante withdrew his gaze.
Chen Fei bluntly said, "Do you think I'm a Light-Based Ability User? S-rank? Or a Light System Caster? Heavenly Order?"
The violent disturbances caused by the Light Great Forbidden Spell were impossible to hide from anyone; any spellcasters and Light-Based Ability Users would be acutely aware of them.
"Who did it?"
Minante found it hard to believe there was such a being inside this upscale business hotel.
Because of haste, the intelligence collected by the Rebel Army hadn't reached him yet.
"My bird!"
Chen Fei pointed to the upscale business hotel behind him.
"Xiao Jiu, ah!" Minante had a sudden realization; indeed, there was a Pure Light Sparrow that never left Chen Fei's side, but...
He suddenly widened his eyes, saying incredulously, "Hmm??? What, what, Xiao Jiu?"
A Pure Light Sparrow causing such a commotion, are you serious?
Minante thought Chen Fei was making a not-so-funny joke with him.
"Don't underestimate it. Once in the air, you couldn't beat Xiao Jiu, hmm, nor could I."
Chen Fei was stating a demoralizing, harsh reality. He was serious.
Minante: "..."
This was definitely an insult, a blatant insult. Could you find another way to slap my face?
"You owe me a big favor; Legion Commander Valenya of the 'Undying Pigeon' must die."
Chen Fei didn't mince his words and delivered an ultimatum.
Previously, he had given Minante the benefit of the doubt and let the commander of the "Undying Pigeon" Legion off with his life, but now, Minante's face just wasn't worth it anymore.
"Huh?"
Looking baffled, Minante thought, What have I done to offend you?
