Infinite Bloodcore-Chapter 520: Section 307: Triggering the Alarm

The mysterious person was astonished to see a large amount of alchemy materials and Golden Level equipment casually placed together.

Previously, he had thought there would be at least one Treasure Box, posing as the final obstacle for him.

But there was none.

Even the balloon backpack mentioned in the intelligence reports didn’t appear.

A trace of relief flickered across the mysterious person’s face. Without the last storage device, he was spared the effort of cracking it open.

But soon after, his gaze grew slightly solemn.

"According to the information gathered, the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps revealed during their naval battle with Rou Cang—they possessed at least one Golden Level storage device."

"And the Golden Level balloon backpack was acquired by them from an auction on Twin Eyes Island."

"That is to say, they have at least two such space storage devices."

"This does not make sense. Why would they store these valuable alchemy materials and Golden Level equipment so carelessly? What’s the reason?"

"Could it be that all their space storage devices are already filled with other items?"

The mysterious person couldn’t help but reconsider the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps’ secondary identity.

An answer suddenly flashed through his mind.

"It seems that these gunrunners must be carrying a large amount of military ordnance."

"At least two storage devices would be used to hold those arms."

"Where could they be?"

"It would be great if I could find those ordnance!"

The mysterious person looked at the materials and equipment nearly within reach and did not immediately make a move.

He used his Combat Skills again to confirm safety.

He was extremely cautious, knowing that many well-known Thief experts often fell at the last step.

After the Combat Skill check, he used a tool.

In the end, no tricks were found.

"No traps at all. These people are truly reckless... no, maybe they don’t even care about these things?"

"Perhaps they traded with the Snowbird Port City Lord only to establish a cooperative relationship, to deepen the connection, paving the way for arms sales in Snowbird Port in the future?"

The mysterious person thought this as he stepped forward.

He first picked up the Golden Level longbow, then glanced at the long-handled harpoon.

Finally, he picked up the set of darts.

He stroked the surface of the darts with his fingers and swung his forearm as if to throw them.

From this throwing action, it was clear that he possessed a skilled dart throwing technique and must have practiced it considerably.

Of the three Golden Level equipments, the darts were his favorite.

He couldn’t let go of them, inspecting them for a good ten seconds before tucking them into his bosom.

Then, he pulled out two Silver Level Storage Bags and stuffed in various alchemy materials.

After filling them up, there was still a lot left in the cabin.

"I can’t carry any more." The mysterious person felt great regret.

"Buying a Golden Level storage device is too difficult."

"Sigh, if they had used that balloon backpack to store these items, that would have been perfect!"

If the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps had used the balloon backpack to store these supplies and treasures, it would have been very convenient for the mysterious person.

He could just pick up the bag and leave.

The balloon backpack was just a storage device; it had no anti-theft measures.

Of course, the mysterious person also knew the characteristics of the balloon backpack: when the value of the items loaded was too high, the balloon backpack would inflate enormously.

At that time, his two Silver Level Storage Bags would come into play.

Ideal expectations and reality often maintained a distance.

Silver Level storage bags were not able to contain Golden Level equipment.

This meant that of the three Golden Level equipments, he could only carry them himself.

But there were still Golden Level items on the scene.

That would be the set of blank Array Maps.

These things were just too big; even the smallest piece was comparable to a nearly 2-meter tall large Shield.

Not only were they huge, but they were also heavy.

The mysterious person pulled out several bundles of Alchemy Bombs, set the countdown timer, and placed them at the center of the Magic Array.

With a longbow in one hand and a harpoon in the other, he carried the darts in his chest and finally forced himself to clamp a piece of the Array Map under his armpit.

He walked up to the cabin door, his face showing a look of worry and helplessness.

He knew that in this burdened state, if a battle were to occur, it would be terrible.

Moreover, when he picked up the longbow, harpoon, and other Golden Level equipment, they were also concealed by the power of the Golden Finger clock.

This accelerated the consumption of the Golden Finger’s power of concealment, making the hands move faster.

The mysterious person’s remaining time was already short, and now it was even less.

Thinking it over, he had to turn back, reluctantly putting the Array Map plate back in its original place.

After doing that, he turned and left.

Having opened the door with Golden Fighting Spirit, he avoided two patrol teams using the same method as before and arrived at a ships cabin.

This was a storage cabin for miscellaneous items.

During his previous exploration, the mysterious person had already memorized its location, planning to use it as a temporary place to hide the treasure.

Here, he laid down the longbow and harpoon.

Then, he took out a bottle of potion from his bosom.

After opening the bottle stopper, he sprinkled the shitty yellow medicine powder evenly over the surfaces of the longbow and harpoon.

The medicine powder quickly took effect, concealing the shape and aura of the longbow and harpoon.

Clearly, this was a Golden Level potion.

But the effect of the potion was only temporary.

After exceeding the time limit, the longbow and harpoon would revert to their original form, emitting a Golden Level aura, which would be easily noticed by others.

With the time bought by the medicine powder, the mysterious person left the storage room once again.

Aside from stealing treasures, he had a second objective during this trip—to assassinate an important figure in the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps. freēwēbnovel.com

The Dragon-man youth was not part of his plan.

The defense displayed by the Dragon-man youth in the heroic duel had given the Golden Level mysterious person a headache.

Moreover, the Dragon-man youth had already left the dock.

According to the information the mysterious person had gathered, the second-in-command of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, undeniably, was their Vice Captain Lion Flag.

But Lion Flag himself was a fighter at the Peak of Silver Level, with Fighting energy that had a Golden sheen.

To assassinate such a figure in a short amount of time was not easy.

More crucially, the mysterious person was concerned that an outcry from Lion Flag during the assassination could trigger an alarm.

This would cause a great deal of trouble for his subsequent actions.

For him, the more key figures he could assassinate, the better.

In the mysterious person’s plan, the assassination targets were already listed, with a meticulously crafted order of execution.

The mysterious person continued his exploration in the Triangular Love Ship’s cabins.

He first came across the cabin of the Mage Old Zhong.

Posting himself before Old Zhong’s cabin door, his ten fingertips barely touching the door, he used the ripples of his Golden Level Fighting Energy to sense Old Zhong’s condition.

Old Zhong was sitting cross-legged, his eyes tightly closed, with a strong fluctuation of elemental waves around him.

Clearly, he was in meditation.

This caused the mysterious person to hesitate.

But after some thought, he chose not to act immediately.

He continued to search.

Soon after, he found the cabin of the Mage Red Vine.

Red Vine was mixing potions, totally absorbed in the task.

It was then that the mysterious person truly began to act.

First, he used the Holy Artifact, Golden Finger, to break down the cabin door’s defensive measures.

He did not dart inside, but instead, after pushing the door to create a small crack, he took out a bamboo blow dart from his bosom.

Although the bamboo blow dart was only of Silver Level, it was more than enough to deal with a mere Bronze Level Mage.

After brewing up his strength for a few seconds, he forcefully blew into the dart.

The blow dart’s fine needle, as thin as cow hair, hit Red Vine directly in the neck.

Red Vine’s eyebrows knit together slightly.

It felt like a mosquito bite.

But at the moment, she was busy with potion creation, hands too full to swat at mosquitoes.

The mysterious person smiled ominously and closed the cabin door once more.

The needle was coated with a Golden Level poison, well within the efficacy range to kill a Bronze Level Mage.

The mysterious person had used this trick to assassinate many targets before, including those of Silver Level.

In the mind of the mysterious person, Red Vine was already a dead certainty!

Having completed this assassination, the mysterious person picked up the pace significantly, rushing to reach Old Zhong’s cabin with a sense of urgency.

He used the Golden Finger again to break the defensive measures on the cabin door, then gently pushed to create a narrow opening.

He took out the Silver Level bamboo blow dart again.

He brought his lips close to the tail end of the dart, aiming it at the exposed neck of the Mage Old Zhong.

Just as he was about to blow, Old Zhong suddenly opened his eyes wide and glared fiercely.

At the same moment, an ear-piercing alarm rang out on the Triangular Love Ship!
