Chapter 708: Thunderstruck



"That\'s the goal, but we\'ll need to figure out the intensity of the lightning in every region. We can\'t risk getting obliterated if we underestimate the power of these bolts," I said. Discover worlds on m-v le-mpyr

Law agreed and continued playing around in the booth underneath the ship.

Soon, he shouted, "Incoming!"

My divine sense was spread but I didn\'t notice anything until it was almost too late.

A javelin was heading toward us at an incredible speed, but Law\'s immaculate aim using the two small railgun turrets underneath the ship saved us.

The bullets shot right into the javelin, fully spiraling the thing out of control and away from its direction, missing the ship completely.

"I can see them," Law said.

"Blow them up," I said as he shot several dozen shots at the cultivator who tired to take us down.

The cultivator managed to run through the thick forest and avoid all of the shots that blew up against the floor.

The damage from the bullets was significant but it wasn\'t noticeable due to the endless bombardment of lightning.

"I can\'t see them anymore," Law said.

"The weather is affecting my Divine Sense, I should have sensed them. Still, keep your eyes peeled, if they attacked us once they\'ll attack us again," I said.

"Why would anyone do that," Law sighed, "The goal is to find the handkerchief not to fight."

"If there are no competitors then finding the handkerchief becomes much easier. Regardless, just keep a lookout."

"I will, also you could have used the big guns," Law said.

"I could, but I don\'t need to. In fact I rather not," I replied.

Law didn\'t question why, and I didn\'t feel like explaining now. In case my theory is wrong.

Several hours later, we barely made it halfway through the first region, and apparently it is the smallest region of the five.

Before we could even notice this time, the entire ship rattled as another spear shot right into the hull of the ship.

"Damage report!" I called.

"Euh, I don\'t know!" Law shouted back.

"Not you," I said.

The Ship\'s vocal network lit up.

"My Lord, the damage is insignificant. Noting but a dent."

"Y, you and X, go down and hunt that man down. Make sure you bring me his right arm," I said.

"As the lord commands," I said.

"Who are those? Y and X?" Law asked.

"They\'re my first two puppets. Very loyal," I said.

"Oh, the first puppets you refined, I see." He said.

"I never refined them. They are loyal by choice, not force." I said.

"You make it seem as if they have an Ego," he said.

I smiled at Law\'s statement and said, "Just watch."

Some time later, a loud explosion sounded in the forest. Trees and boulders flew up all around the area.

"Dock us here," I said.

"I don\'t know how to do that," Law said.

"Not you, there are other puppets that work in this ship man, anyway we\'ll need to wait for Y and X to come back."

"Shouldn\'t we help them? They were barely at the Void Stage, I don\'t see how puppets of the Void Stage can defeat that guy who seemed to be in the Origin Realm."

"Stages and Realms are irrelevant against me," I said.

Law\'s confusion kept increasing. Especially with the constant bombardment all around us.

The man who was throwing javelins at us soon flew up, his entire body riddled with burns and scars. And his left arm was barely hanging on with a tendon.

He looked to have seen a ghost as he flew above us. His direction was away from the thunder domain.

However, soon a blast of power energy shot right next to him, separating his arm completely from the rest of his body.

The cultivator roared in pain as his arm fell off, but sooner than expected, a lightning bolt the size of a tree trunk fell down on him. Electrifying him in the process and sending him slamming into the ground.

He luckily -for me- fell a bit ahead of the ship. So I headed to the Ship\'s exit to take a look. I made sure to not leave the range of the ship lest the bolts of lightning would strike at me. Instead the lightning continued raining down against the cultivator nonstop.

He couldn\'t even ask for help as the endless lightning bolts continued coming down at him as if he was their mortal enemy. To the point where I wondered why the bolts stopped striking my ship and all continued coming down against that man.

But soon enough the man decided that he was better off discarding his body. Using his own Soul to escape.

The man clearly thinking that the only way to survive was to possess another body, and seeing two \'weak\' looking cultivators at the realms of mere Void Stage, he decided to come at us.

Law understood what was going on and jumped in front of me as if to protect me from the incoming soul.

I simply swept Law\'s feet from under him and allowed the soul to jump into my body.

Confused and unable to understand what went on, Law looked at me with eyes full of worry.

"GET OUT OF HIM!" Law Shouted.

"Calm down, he\'s dead," I said. "X, Y, where\'s the arm?" I said.

Soon, X approached me with the man\'s arm which I took.

"Y, can you pick up his holding bag?" I said and went inside the ship.

Law was still confused before Y spoke up, "The Lord is immune to Soul theft and possession, in fact he welcomes it since a Soul is nothing but food for him."

This cleared up the confusion in Law\'s head, but probably made him think of even more questions.
