Chapter 108: Raiders
Chapter 108: Raiders
Forest of Death.
With the aura of the Fifth Stage Undead Wolf, Fang Lin was able to make all the Fourth Stage Undead in the Fourth Stage Area to be his henchmen. All the needs and wants of Fang Lin, Bloodspear, and Mina had been provided well by Fang Lin’s new underlings.
Fang Lin sighed sadly, realizing he only had 42 hours left until his wolf pup form vanishes. That means he only had around 42 hours to implement a plan to beat up the bratty boy. He thought to himself, “Well there’s still more time to have a plan. Let me relax first.”
Fang Lin, whose head was on Mina’s lap, started to close his eyes for a nap. But before he could do so, he felt something from the fragment of the Pan Gu Divine Tablet that was on his space pocket.
He reached out to the stone fragment with his qi, and what he discovered made his eyes narrow.
As usual, he can sense the four other holders of the stone fragments. Fang Lin knew that the one he senses in Solstice Kingdom was in Ling Tian’s possession. As for the other three, Fang Lin felt that they were not stationary anymore.
The three tablets were moving, and they were all headed towards the Tian Ji Empire!
“What the hell? Only half a day passed since the fifth fragment surfaced, and yet all the other holders want to acquire it already? This is not fair!” Fang Lin complained to himself.
“Drats! It seems like I have to do something now!” Fang Lin rose up from his lying position. Mina hid her disappointed expression as Fang Lin left her lap. Once he was standing on his four ‘legs’, Fang Lin let out his cute barks.
“Yip yip yip!”
Upon hearing this, all the Fourth Stage Undead within Fang Lin’s vicinity rushed towards him. Once near, they all prostrated to Fang Lin. All of them shivered as they felt the suffocating aura from Fang Lin.
Fang Lin just looked indifferently at the scared Undead in front of him. While he was checking out the Undead in front of him, he was thinking about the number of enemies that will have a go at him.
The bratty boy and his butler will surely come for him. That Undead Wolf will come for him too. Even if Fang Lin had the same aura as the Undead Wolf, that wolf was intelligent enough to discern Fang Lin’s deceit. That makes it three.
As for the holders of the stone fragments, Fang Lin knew that Ling Tian have no way to go at the Forest of Death as of now. The remaining holders of the stone fragments will definitely be going to Fang Lin and Ling Tian.
Fang Lin also knew that with two places with the stone fragments, the other holders were bound to split. They would not want to be all at the same place. They will probably split in a one-two division.
One of them might go to the Forest of Death while the remaining two will go to the Solstice Kingdom and vice versa.
That makes Fang Lin’s total enemies to be at least 4, and at most 5. With the speed the three stone fragment holders were taking, Fang Lin reckons he had to plan and do his preparations in the incoming 12 hours.
Fang LIn took a deep breath as he stated his plan to the Undead prostrating in front of him.
“Yip yip yip yip!”

It had been an hour since Wang Hao and Eleanor followed the unkempt man. During this time period, Wang Hap could not help but constantly flex his fingers.
Because of her fear of small and dirty critters, Eleanor had to ride on Wang Hao’s back. Her full breasts pressed on his back, creating a blissful sensation that satisfied Wang Hao.
As for Eleanor’s thighs, they were both held by Wang Hao to support her body from falling. Wang Hao could have supported her better if he was gripping at the higher portion of her thighs. But Wang Hao did not dare to slide his hands up further. That was a forbidden territory.
Eleanor’s thighs had just the right amount of plumpness and suppleness to make Wang Hao hold them tight. Eleanor could only pinch Wang Hao in annoyance when she felt him constantly gripping her thighs. But with Wang Hao’s ability, all of Eleanor’s pinches felt like caresses to him.
The unkempt man then brought himself to a stop. Upon seeing this, Wang Hao stopped too. Wang Hao could see that in front of the unkempt man, there was another door barring the way. There were others door that looked exactly the same as this door that were around the whole tunnel. Wang Hao had seen these doors while walking.
“This is a good camouflage. You hid the real door amongst the fake doors.”
“Those doors were not fake.” The man said in reply. “All of the doors that you saw earlier leads to our hideout. It’s just every day, only one door can be opened. The other stay locked. When the new day arrives, it will be a different door that will be unlocked.”
“Wait, if that’s the case, then how can you identify which door to enter?”
“That’s a secret.” The man replied while smiling faintly. He looked at Eleanor as he said, “Princess Eleanor, you can go down now. The hideout is considerably much cleaner compared to the tunnel.”
Upon hearing this, Eleanor sighed in relief as she alighted off Wang Hao. The hard surface she stepped on made a thudding sound with her descent. Eleanor then proceeded to kick Wang Hao in his shin as she looked away while pouting.
Wang Hao could only shrug his shoulders helplessly towards the man who stared bemusedly at them.
The man then approached the door while holding another key in his right hand. He put the key on the keyhole and twisted it. Wang Hao had to only wait a few seconds before he heard the satisfying sound.
“Click.”
The door started rumbling as it opened up from the middle. The man entered with Wang Hao and Eleanor following him.
Once they were all inside, they heard the rumbling of the door once again, Wang Hao and Eleanor looked back as they saw the door closing. Eleanor gulped as she realized that she was in an unknown territory now. She scooted closer to Wang Hao to feel more secure.
Wang Hao then saw the man getting a talisman deep inside his robes. The talisman was just a piece of white paper. Its only design was the character 晚(Night) imprinted on it. The man then gestured for Wang Hao and Eleanor to come closer to him.
“This is a teleportation talisman that the Boss has fashioned for us to use.” He said while straightening the talisman. “Only those who pleased the boss can get this from her.”
“So, what does it do?” With Wang Hao’s space-time artifact, he already knew of its capabilities. But he had to let Eleanor know the function of the talisman.
“This talisman allows its holder to teleport right in front of the Boss’ room.”
“Wait, if that’s the case, why did you not use it earlier?”
“Oh, actually, if this talisman was used inside this handout, I can use it repeatedly as long as I do not run out of qi. But if this was used outside the hideout, the talisman will disintegrate, making it a one-use item outside the hideout.”
The man then motioned for Wang Hao and Eleanor to touch his shoulders. Wang Hao chose the right while Eleanor settled for the left.
After making sure that Wang Hao and Eleanor were in contact with him, the man then started to inject qi on the talisman.
The talisman suddenly glowed brilliantly. Just a second later, and the three of them vanished on the spot.
The next thing that Eleanor knew, they were in front of a golden door. As she stabilized herself, she observed this sophisticated door. It was golden in color and it had been gilded with golden plates. She was sure that this was the room of the Boss.
The man then knocked on the door while saying,
“Boss, I have brought the fugitive Wang Hao and the missing Princess Eleanor here. It seems like they wanted to discuss something with you.”
5 minutes have passed, and no reply sounded behind the door. Just as Wang Hao was starting to get impatient, he heard a person inside the room saying,
“Let them in.”
The man then nodded to Wang Hao and Eleanor as he opened the golden door. He stepped aside, while motioning towards Wang Hao and Eleanor to enter already.
“Are you not coming with us?” Eleanor asked when she saw the man’s position.
“I dare not to.” The man replied quickly. “Come, enter now! The boss is an impatient person!”
Wang Hao and Eleanor immediately entered the room after hearing that. Once inside, they heard the golden door slamming shut behind them.
Wang Hao observed the room he was currently in. The room was covered in darkness. Even with Wang Hao’s enhanced senses, he can barely see inside the room. What he can only see was a silhouette of a person sitting behind the table in front of him.
Wang Hao then heard this silhouette saying something.
“Welcome to the two of you. You are now on the headquarters of the Raiders of the Night.”
“Raiders of the Night? It sounds awfully close to Night Raid for me.”
“...............”
