Chapter 692: Elope

Lu Shu stood below and beckoned to Coral. The member of the Deities beside Coral thought. Who did you think the Master of Gods of the Deities was? Did she have to go down just by a wave of your hand? Why don’t you come up here yourself?

Then, Coral ran down as fast as the wind…

“From Bridget Hudson’s distress, +666!”

Coral ran down the spiral staircase. Her skirt fluttered as she ran. She looked like a joyful fairy.

She stood still in front of Lu Shu. Her slender arms grabbed on to her fluttering skirt. It was as if the flutter of her skirt represented her swaying and excited emotions.

Coral thought. She should have been more reserved and allowed Lu Shu to find her? Did he want to bring her out to play? Would he bring her to the movies? Or to eat? It was said that guys often had little tricks when bringing a girl out. But they definitely could not spend the night outside…

Her train of thought was very fast, but only a few words came out of her mouth. “Lu Shu, why are you here?”

The morning sun shone on the two of them. Their shadows continued to grow longer and longer, as if they would eventually merge. Lu Shu formed a sentence. “I am very sure that the Department of Faith Theory is targeting you. Did you know?”

Coral’s expression darkened. “We’ve guessed. But we remembered that the Saint and the Bishop were both badly injured. Thus, if only a Class B expert came, there would be no way that they were here for me. Furthermore, I really need that World Tree.

“Have you ever thought that the World Tree is fake, or doesn’t exist?” Lu Shu said, “What if it was just to draw you here?”

“I’ve thought about it.” Coral said calmly, “But I have no choice.”

“What happened?” Lu Shu knew that the situation was much worse than he had imagined. His refresher fruit probably did not do much to help either. If it did, Coral would not say such a thing.

“It’s nothing.” Coral laughed. She had thought about whether she should tell Lu Shu, but in the end, she decided not to. Why did someone else had to bear her misfortune? She smiled. “It’s just that the Deities really needs this World Tree. It’s nothing.”

Lu Shu remained silent for a long time. “The Danke from Germany, the Pledge from England, the Reykja from Iceland, the Black Hand from Italy, the Department of Faith Theory, and even a few mercenary soldiers have all come here. To them, there is not only one World Tree on Sardinia. There are two, including here. This place is no longer safe.”

Coral lowered her head and remained silent. How could the Deities, who were based in Europe, not see things that Lu Shu could see? From the start, there were people who suspected that this might be a hoax. After all, the World Tree would not lose its magical energy even during an era when all the magic was exhausted. But why was there no news about the World Tree earlier?

But as Coral had said, they had no choice. They could only take a risk.

The members of the Deities gathered at the window of the hotel and observed them. “What the… why do I get angry just looking at that boy…”

“Me too. I really want to go down and beat him up.”

“Should we go down?”

“No. The Master of Gods will be angry. I feel that this is still good. We can still watch them talk at the door, unlike last night when they completely disappeared.”

“True,” someone said after some thought. “There’s nothing wrong with a chat. As long as he doesn’t kidnap her and run away.”

At that moment, Lu Shu pondered and seemed to have made a decision. For some reason, Coral suddenly became nervous. Lu Shu said, “Come with me. Although I don’t know where to go, but I cannot let you stay in this dangerous environment. Now, all the organizations are gathered here. You…”

Before he could finish speaking, Coral smiled like a pure and innocent dolphin. “Sure.”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He was still thinking of a reason to convince Coral with, but she had agreed.

“To be honest, you don’t have to persuade me. I’m willing to leave with you as long as you say so.” Coral smiled. “I don’t care where we go.”

This world was very hypocritical and very cold.

People faced countless lies, conspiracies, wars, and blood everyday, to the extent that many did not know how exactly they wanted to live their lives.

People slowly stopped watching how night fell.

People no longer saw whether they had achieved the life they had expected.

People could only say the truth on April Fool’s Day.

But every moment here, no matter whether it was Lu Shu or Coral, they had maintained their true intentions in this tumultuous world. They had said what they truly felt.

Lu Shu said, “Follow me.” And Coral did.

The members of the Deities in the hotel were all dumbfounded. They did not know what Lu Shu had said to Coral, but watched the two of them leave.

“Wait, wait! Where are they going?!”

“What… is he kidnapping the Master of Gods?”

“Is he kidnapping her right in front of our eyes?!”

The group of old men from the Deities were speechless. They had just said that it was good for them to chat just like that, since they would be able to see them. But now, Coral had been kidnapped.

They had a feeling that it would not be as simple as being kidnapped for one or two days!

“What are you doing? Hurry up and chase them!”

The whole group ran down to chase after them. Some even opened the window and jumped out. But when they went down, no one was there…

“A sin!

“From Bridget Hudson” distress, +666!”

“From…”

A large cruise ship sailed on the sea. They would arrive at Amsterdam in Holland. But this was not the destination of this group from the Heavenly Network. They would board another cruise ship at Holland towards Sardinia. This was a custom route, thus it was relatively pricier.

Chen Zuan wore a pair of large underpants and sat on a deck chair on the deck. He secretly looked at the pretty ladies by the pool through his sunglasses. He took a break every now and then. If not, it would be awkward for him if they found out…

Beside him were three comrades on the same trip as him. Cao Qingci, Cheng Qiuqiao, and Han You, a new member.

“Ever since I entered the Heavenly Network, I have never been assigned to such a relaxing mission before.” Chen Zuan laughed happily. “We don’t earn much from this kind of mission. Give me a dozen!”

Cao Qingci, who was dressed neatly, glanced at him, but did not speak. Chen Zuan sensed murderous intent in that glance and hurriedly shut his mouth…

Suddenly, their specially-assigned phones started to ring. They unlocked their phones to check for new information. After some time, Chen Zuan was shocked. “What does ‘missing’ mean? If I understand correctly… before we have even met our leader, our leader has abandoned us?!”

“From Chen Zuan’s distress…”
