Chapter 179 -179: All the Villains Inside the Airship!_1

St. Land Airport.

Tuck, who was visiting for the first time,

looked around with interest at the various steam airships, large and small.

The large ones, like aircraft carriers, were majestically impressive in size.

The smaller ones, like ordinary RVs, were elegantly shaped.

Origin Energy Steam Airships!

Products of the Transcendent Steam Era.

Constructed with an abundance of [Flying] Characteristics and powered by Origin Energy Steam Engines, using Wind Magic Circles for propulsion, these airships could soar through the skies for prolonged periods.

This made Tuck contemplate when his own Magic Cottage would grow to such a size that he could navigate the magic flying cottage across the heavens.

No one could resist the allure of a cozy cottage that drifted with the winds.

At the bustling corridors of the airport’s boarding platforms,

Tuck followed the crowd, inspecting the nearby airships of Sky Sail Merchant one by one.

As he scrutinized, a strange light flickered in the depths of his eyes.

Deep within the Sky Sail Merchant’s airships, he saw an abundance of overlapping seals.

And among them were often those terrifying [Forbidden Seals].

Before long, Tuck took a deep breath.

His fingers gently caressed under his gray-white wizard’s robe.

“Sealed objects, they seem to be quite formidable seals,”

“This time the waters are quite deep!”

“At the same time…”

Tuck rubbed his temples.

“There indeed is a presence of Sacred Light power inside, although it’s not very clear due to numerous seals, boundaries, and confinement barriers.”

“But one thing’s for sure, it’s incredibly sacred and pure Light Attribute.”

Lost in thought, Tuck stealthily entered an adjacent washroom.

In an unoccupied stall,

he teleported, leaving the airship dock.

…

In a corner outside the airship dock,

a Soul Shadow, concealed in the dark recesses of the alley, came to life.

Suddenly,

The Soul Shadow animated.

Tuck, clad in a gray-white wizard’s robe and wearing a hood, stepped out from the shadows, his leather boots touching the ground.

A dense shadow draped over his face like a mask.

Glancing at the nearby airport,

Tuck melted into the flowing crowd on the busy streets.

As he moved forward, Tuck quickly weighed his options.

Previously, in the underground black market,

a mysterious figure had enticed Tuck with Light materials as bait, inviting him aboard their shady ride.

If Tuck had been an ordinary member of the Steam Transcendent Sequence,

participating in this operation would surely mean being a scapegoat, a cannon fodder.

Or rather, a unit to share the brunt of the Sky Sail Merchant’s ensuing vengeful investigation.

Unfortunately for them!

Tuck was no ordinary Transcendent.

Since they had Light materials in hand,

Tuck didn’t mind signing a contract to get more specific information.

If the information wasn’t reliable,

he could opt out of participating in this operation and wouldn’t lose anything.

Upon receiving the message, Tuck’s first step was to investigate.

If the materials that Sky Sail Merchant was transporting were ordinary,

he would not risk getting involved.

However, the results of Tuck’s investigation were more astonishing than he had anticipated.

Not only did they possess attributes of immense Sacred Light power,

but they also contained mysterious [Forbidden Seals].

This was somewhat beyond Tuck’s expectations.

“That airship doesn’t look very big on the outside, but there are quite a few people inside.”

“There are two Fifth Rank powerhouses guarding it, along with more than a dozen Fourth Rank Transcendents.”

“And there are over a dozen crew members as well.”

“Bishop Level powerhouses are typically not dispatched casually.”

“Two Fifth Rank powerhouses as guards amount to nearly half the strength of the Dark Sun Church Sanctuary.”

“This sufficiently shows the importance of what they’re transporting this time.”

Tuck’s second plan was, if it was too dangerous, for instance, if there was Bishop Level power involved,

he would most likely not get involved.

But it seemed like,

even if there was Bishop Level power, it would be on his side.

Still, Tuck reckoned that there probably wouldn’t be any power at the Bishop Level.

From that man recruiting Transcendents of the Steam Sequence to share the firepower, it was obvious.

They were still fearful of being investigated, being hunted down.

These “temporary workers” that Tuck and others were recruited as were largely meant to bear the brunt of the Sky Sail Merchant’s future divination, retrospective, insight, and various other measures for disturbance and diversion.

From this, Tuck could roughly gauge the strength of this group as not too formidable.

After reflecting for a while, Tuck drew some conclusions.

“I can basically participate without it being too dangerous for me.”

“That intense attribute of light, possessing an extremely strong Holy Breath, is tremendously helpful for my soon-to-be-promoted Third Rank awakening Angel Sequence Abilities.”

“Moreover, such top-tier materials, once they make my foundation in the Sacred Light strong enough, will also greatly accelerate the speed at which I comprehend the Bright Mysterious Rune.”

As he pondered, Tuck made his way towards the outskirts of St. Land City-State.

The frontier town outside.

That was the assembly point for the many participants in this operation of the [Bandits].

……

About two hours later.

In a remote frontier town quite far from St. Land.

An old Steam Airship began to ascend slowly.

“Woo woo woo…”

Accompanied by the deep and hoarse roaring of steam.

The old Steam Airship headed towards the Neverfreeze Port Steam Sea City Province on the route from St. Land to the Eastern Sea coast.

The old airship wasn’t very fast, in fact, it was rather slow.

Inside the airship, Tuck, sitting by the window, quietly felt the Origin Energy Steam Engine of the vessel.

This aged fellow seemed to be at risk of failing and dropping out of the sky at any moment.

While a fall from over a thousand meters wouldn’t kill everyone.

For those Transcendents without the ability to fly or glide, going down with the airship would still be quite problematic.

The Level and number of Transcendents inside the airship were about what Tuck had expected.

There were no Bishop Level powers of the Sixth Rank.

The leaders were two Fifth Rank Transcendents.

Plus seven or eight Fourth Rank Transcendents.

And more than a dozen Third Rank Transcendents.

Their combined strength was not inferior to the escort personnel of the Sky Sail Merchant.

In fact, Tuck felt that the number of Transcendents on his side might even be stronger than that of the Sky Sail Merchant.

Because!

Inside this old Steam Airship, everyone was a villain.

Yes!

The ones who had boarded this pirate ship.

Almost each of them exuded an aura of frightening bloodlust and rising vigour.

It couldn’t just be said to bear a great resemblance to a bandit lair, it was exactly the same as one.

When Tuck looked at his own frail frame, his plain Wizard’s Robe, and his unremarkable wizard’s aura.

He couldn’t help but secretly lament, “I often feel out of place among you, for not being twisted enough.”

The Fourth Rank assassin sitting diagonally opposite Tuck had cheeks, skin, and even the edges of his fingers that exhibited a hint of cold gleam, his sharp nails were like blades.

Such frosty and bloody killing intent couldn’t be nourished without the blood of hundreds of living beings.

Across the aisle from Tuck, on the table, lay a blood-red Battle Axe surrounded by rising wrath.

Blood Chad, the B Grade wanted criminal from the Duchy Cerion.

This guy specialized in targeting nobles and merchants, and at least twenty or thirty merchants had died beneath his axe.

And right in front of Tuck.

The man wearing the Demon Mask, who’d lured Tuck into the crew, was also showing his face.

As to whether it was his real face, Tuck didn’t know.

Tuck thought this guy resembled a very famous B Grade wanted criminal from a Sky Pirate Gang.

But it wasn’t exactly appropriate to ask directly.

You certainly can’t come out with, “Excuse me, are you the wanted criminal with a bounty of so and so much Magic Gold?”

That would be too impolite.

The respectful way to treat these wanted criminals is to first take their heads, then verify their identity.

Just then.

“Boom… rumble… rumble…”

The Origin Energy Steam Engine suddenly let out a violent burst of deep roars, the airship shook tremendously for a moment and lost some altitude before stabilizing again.

Although many Transcendents inside heaved a sigh of relief.

Their faces didn’t look so good.

They had come to rob today.

If the airship they were on failed, it would surely become the top joke within the industry.

Just at that moment.

From the forward cabin up ahead, a Fourth Rank female Transcendent wearing a black and white checked waist-cinching long skirt, which accentuated her figure voluptuously, stormed angrily into the middle cabin.

“Blood Chad, what a great airship you’ve found.”

“We almost became a laughingstock.”

The Fourth Rank female Transcendent Traveler almost leaned half her body onto the calm-faced man seated across from Tuck.

“If you delay today’s heist, can you bear the responsibility?”

Blood Chad?

Upon hearing this name,

Tuck finally had no more doubts.

And the name perfectly confirmed Tuck’s suspicions.

Why there were so many wanted criminals on the airship.

Why nearly all the passengers on this airship were villains.

Because!

This was the freaking airship of a Sky Pirate Gang.

This time, he’d truly boarded a pirate ship.
