Chapter 1008: Agreement 2

The City of Nagadako.

Numerous flying ships were soaring through the sky, constantly circling between the volcanos’ craters.

One of the silver-white flying ships had four enormous jet ports at its bottom and was constantly emitting red flames at tremendous speed, pushing the flying ship to fly at an inhuman speed.

A white flying dragon was carved on the surface of this particular flying ship.

Inside the flying ship, a few young people were dressed in silver uniforms with a flying dragon symbol printed on their cuffs. They were seated around a large round table, playing some sort of three-dimensional sand table game.

“Liz, aren’t you going to join us?” A baby-faced young man was playing the table game while glancing at a beautiful girl in the corner working on the computer.

Liz shook her head. “Remember the last time we were here, it was with two of my friends whom I just met. I wonder how they are now.”

She sighed.

“Friend? I don’t recall you mentioning before, haven’t they enter different sects already?” The young lad responded with interest.

“Yeah…they were so much stronger than me back then,” Liz said softly.

“So which sect were they recruited in? Do share.” The young lad questioned.

“I’m sure they’ve entered a strong sect, but our Dragon Light Sect isn’t bad either!” A young girl playing the game pouted.

Liz smiled and kept quiet.

“Why not we ask them out this time if we’re free, maybe we can meet and get to know each other?” The young man fondled his chin and suggested. “Just a day out to relax and make friends, what do you guys think?”

“Forget it, our aim this time is to purchase materials, let’s just finish the quest before even thinking about going out to play. Furthermore, this is a great opportunity to try out for Level Four. If we miss this chance, I’m afraid it’ll be very hard for us to get another chance.” Liz shook her head.

“Alright then, it’s all up to you,” The young man replied amiably.

********************

Boom!

Far away in the mountains, one of the black caves suddenly exploded from the inside, pieces of rocks and sand exploded into the air.

Tiny silver stars were shooting outwards, forming a gigantic Nebula Vortex approximately ten meters wide in the air.

“Hahahaha!!! I’ve finally broken through!” A dark figure laughed madly as he walked slowly out from the cave. It was Accord, who entered the Star Cloud Sect back then.

His inborn talent was much stronger than Garen’s. Now that he had received proper training from a big sect like Star Cloud Sect, it was like letting a fish back into the water – he was in his own element.

“Brother Accord, you only managed to break through the Half-Moon Level of resonance, is there the need to be this boastful?” A man with a feminine voice could be heard far away.

“Hey, how long did it take for Senior Brother Quinton to break through the Half-Moon level of resonance? Why not tell me that?” Accord snorted towards the echo from the West.

“If only you weren’t that valued by the master…”

“You’ve stayed in the division for so many years yet none of the masters is willing to regard you in a different light, who can you blame for that?” Accord said bluntly. “Stop being enigmatic. I’ll be leading a team to the Ninth District Star Cloud Void Battlefields soon, you can try and make a move if you want to.”

The voice grunted coldly and died down, no longer to be heard.

Accord’s expression gradually returned to normal.

The Star Cloud sect had one of the cruelest competition systems and was known as the toughest one yet among all the other sects. High-leveled disciples could even bully and exploited the low-leveled disciples’ monthly income. If one was unable to seek a strong protection, one would have no hope and may even be sent out of the sect straight away.

Under such circumstances, Accord worked very hard to climb to the top. He practically had no time and energy to rest, all his time was spent trying to breakthrough.

He contacted Garen occasionally…they both had each other as the few friends back in Nagadako.

In a sect like Star Cloud, one need not hope to have true friends. Because of that, although Garen and Liz were not as talented as him, he did not look down on them in any sort of way. All just so that he could maintain a form of non-beneficial friendship.

Thinking about it, he opened his Energy Machine Imprint and looked at the contact panel. Both Garen and Liz had their avatars lighted up, which meant that he could contact them now.

“Liz, Garen, you there?” He straight away contacted them through the Energy Machine Imprint’s long-distance contact call.

“Accord? Are you out?” Liz answered first. “I heard that you retreated to cultivate sometime earlier on, that’s why I didn’t dare to disturb you. How are you now? Did you manage to break through Level Five?”

Accord hesitated — he had actually been hiding something from the both of them. He had long gone past Level Five and was now trying to break through the resonance stage. If he went out this time around and manage to kill that fellow, he would acquire the Thunder Liquid and move one step forward to finally reach Full-Moon Level!

But he was worried this would widen the status gap between him and the other two, some things might eventually deteriorate because of it. Moreover, existing in such a toxic environment such as Star Cloud made him appreciate this pure friendship formed by chance.

“Not yet, I failed…” Accord decided to not reveal his actual situation.

“It’s alright, just try harder next time, we’re still young, there’s still plenty of chances to go again!” Garen’s voice sounded suddenly. “You’re the most talented one among us, Accord, don’t forget us when you’re out there mixing around next time.”

“You can forget about it, I’m stuck at the moment, you guys would probably even surpass me, I can’t say for sure,” Accord laughed lightly. “Perhaps I’ll be the one relying on you guys when the time comes.”

“I’m going to the Central Metropolis auction to buy some stuff. I might be trying out for Level Four this time.” Liz was moody. “Accord, you’re currently Level Four, is there anything I have to focus on?”

Accord thought about it and shared everything he learned when he was breaking through Level Four. Garen also asked a few questions here and there which Accord answered them clearly.

“Garen, you’re currently in Scarlet Snow Sect. If there’s anything you need, just let me know. I can help you buy some things here and send them over to you, it’s quite conveniently actually.” Accord reminded thoughtfully.

“Relax, I wouldn’t be so courteous if I need your help,” Garen replied with a smile, several years of contact helped built a strong relationship between the three of them. They were people of Nagadako currently in foreign lands; the sense of recognition among them strengthened their relationship between one another.

“Oh yeah, I actually do need something at the moment. If you do see it by chance, do let me know.” Garen suddenly thought of something he actually needed help with.

“What is it? We are very efficient in finding various resources here.”

Accord smiled and asked.

At this moment, ten or more different sorts of flying ships appeared at the bottom of his cave’s entrance. The surface of the flying ships was shimmering with a layer of Level-Five Light Membrane, which showed that the owners were Level-Five Energy Machinist powerhouses.

One by one, figures started flying out of the flying ships. They had silver-winged boots on their feet so they were able to fly around freely.

One by one, these figures landed on the flat ground in front of the cave.

“Congratulations Brother Dark Light for exiting!!!”

Almost ten or more of them stood together and congratulated in unison.

Accord nodded in acknowledgment, these were his men. His power was renowned in Star Cloud, passing levels and killing people were day-to-day things. He was beyond outstanding, having risen to be the top ten strongest in the sector within just an extremely short period of time. The people who exploited him in the first place were now exploited by him; some of them were old fritters who were unable to advance further due to the shortage of resources and they were now his slaves; some of them switched sides and turned to him; some of them were Energy Machinists defeated by him and forcefully accepted as his men.

In the 81 section of Star Cloud, he was now ranked number five, the most powerful disciple among the three of them. In addition to his exceedingly unique inborn talent, he was really influential.

Gesturing his men to back down, Accord continued his conversation with Garen and Liz.

“What I need is called the Staff of Absolute Yin, or something along the lines of the same material will do as well.” Garen sent a picture over and some detailed parameter index.

“This thing…” Accord furrowed his brows, he seemed to have seen this somewhere before.

“If you can find it, that would be of great help to me!” Garen said.

“I’ll help look out for it over here too, with one more eye on the lookout, we might just be able to find it.” Liz followed suit.

“I shall thank you all first then.”

“Don’t fret, I’ll send you news sometime later.” Accord nodded.

“Alright then, I have some matters to attend to here, I’ll end the call now. We should all meet up one day. It’s been too long since we last met.”

“True, since we each entered our sects, we’ve never reunited even once,” Liz responded instantly, sounding very excited.

“I still have some matters to attend to. I might be making a trip to the Void Battlefields for probably about three years. How about I contact you guys once I’m back and we can meet up?” Accord suggested.

“No problem!”

“I’ll be there!”

Both of them agreed.

After agreeing to the date, time and place to meet, Accord ended the call. The hint of warmth in his eyes instantly vanished as he raised his head to look at the crowd before him.

With a wave of his arm, a three-dimensional screen appeared before him, displaying the photo of a rotating Staff of Absolutely Yin and its related information.

“Send out all departments to search for this item.”

The Energy Machinists recorded down the picture and features, then silently dispersed to their own flying ships and departed.

Accord looked to the west and his expression turned cold.

“I will be waiting for you at the Void Battlefields!”

A dark light flashed on his wrist as he leaped away, only leaving a trace of black vortex which disappeared into thin air.

A cave within the mountains in the west.

A middle-aged man with a ferocious expression snorted as he punched the stone wall. With a rumble, the stones cracked and fell in huge pieces.

“I shall let you continue your act of arrogance for a while! You little bastard!!”
