To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 160: Lead Seal



Chapter 160: Lead Seal

West Tower / Highest Room

Hangars /

In the center of the room, a jet plane is ready to go. Waiting for the pilot to make the decision.

"You will kill all of them for me right, Ars?!"

Rob wanted to make sure of that, Ars will eliminate everyone who gets in his way, before leaving. 

"No."

But Ars' answer made him surprised in confusion.

"Wha- Aren't you going to guarantee my trip out?! Plus, you say you will kill everyone who gets in you way?"

"Well, I said that, but eliminating them is not necessary. Plus, I only warn them to think twice, not actually will kill them."

"But, why?! How are you going to protect me without killing them?!"

At that question, Ars took out six Sinaga Swords. The Six Sinaga Swords drew near Rob's jet plane like satellites.

"This six sword will do the job."

Well, that's cool and all. "But, this is not enough!"

"Don't worry too much. I will fly with you too. After all, won't Black Hunter also escort you?"

Rob couldn't complain after that.

The jet plane is designed to carry a large package on the back. Tha package is a cube, a hard sealed cube.

The one sitting in the pilot's seat is Rob. The pilot is an AI.

[We are ready to go, Sir Great Mad Scientist?]

The AI pilot recognized Rob, who was already in the pilot seat.

"Yes-yes! But wait a minute? Mister Black Hunter Leader!"

Rob called someone who is standing behind Ars. A man in a black cloak and had a very angry face.

"What?!"

He is Jared, the representative of The Charity woman and the control holder of the Black Hunter army.

"Uh, you and your army will really protect me, right?"

"Yeah, of course. Unlike this useless person, we will kill anyone who gets in the way of the Soul Saint's Path of Belief."

Jared still holds a grudge against Ars. But Ars did not take it seriously.

"Hey, don't be rude like that. Although," said Ars casually, "[Dragonoid Wings: Six Satellites] is more useful that all of your pawn."

"Oh, really? Want to make a bet?"

"Want me to actually kill you this time?"

The atmosphere is getting hotter between Ars and Jared. Rob starting to worry that they would split up.

"H-hey! Gentleman! Let's focus on our goal for now: to protect me. And please, don't kill him, Ars. He is also a valuable subject of my research."

The two men lowered their killing intent. Agree to disagree.

"Well, what are you waiting? Just go."

"O-OK!"

The AI pilot immediately responded to Rob's intention to leave. The jet started hovering low, then flew forward at low speed. Leave the hangar to go to the destination location, [Surface].

Ars alone remains in the hangar. Jared is gone in the dark somewhere.

Breathing the city air, Ars felt disgusted. "This place suck."

Well, basically the place is in the middle between two tall mountains with only dark mountains around. The only place that has fresh air is the Green Room. 

"Well, guess it's time to do the job."

Ars took out something from Unlimited Inventory. An unusually unique futuristic skateboard. 

[Cyber Grand Broom]. Flying Grand Broom, which has been modified with futuristic elements and has a wider footing. 

A device that can make Ars fly faster in the air. He easily and efficiently caught up with Rob.

"Ars!"

"Yo!"

Ars and [Dragonoid Wings: Six Satellites] privately escorting Rob. Even so, Rob still has doubts.

"Hey, do you really think it safe going like this? I mean, aren't we too open?"

That cannot be denied.

"Moreover, the Bounty Hunters, they do not have a rank like you Abyssal Hunter, but they cannot be underestimated. Oh, I have data on their fighting strength if you want?"

"No need!"

Rob is still filled with worry. But as usual, Ars is still relaxed.

Ars raised his right hand, then pointed forward. "Just believe me and move forward."

They are close to the exit gate of the Guild Protection (Barrier). When they touch the outside, the war will automatically start.

They will definitely be overrun by dozens of attacks.

However, Rob, who still afraid, didn't want to doubt his partner anymore.

"Believe and move forward!"

Rob hit the jet's gas harder, and he started going faster. Pass through the Guild Protection, towards the outer side of Downtown.

One second after touching the outside air, nothing happened yet. Two seconds later, dozens of laser and missile attacks got launched on Rob's jet.

All of those attacks created large explosions in the air. The explosion must have destroyed Rob's jet plane.

But no, Rob with his jet plane still shot forward unscathed.

In the pilot's seat, Rob still closed his eyes in fear.

"I'm still alive?"

Rob opened his eyes and looked around. 

Something surprised him a little. A bright red line circled the jet at high speed, like a barrier.

"I told you to take it easy and move forward."

Ars suddenly appeared from next door with a relaxed face.

Now Rob realized that the six red swords that followed his jet had disappeared, turning into a very strong sharp barrier.

"Oh, yeah! I have the strongest man by my side! Then, I won't hesitate to step on the gas!"

Rob's jet travels faster after he finds out that his safety is guaranteed.

______________

On the other hand, within the city.

["The target has barrier between him and moving faster! And, a person is flying beside the target. He is Most likely is 'Ars'!"]

The transmission was sent to all personnel of participant Bounty Hunter.

"Roger that."

After giving a reply, Mason turned back. Facing his nine members who are about to do the chase.

"All right, our job is more complicated because the target has strong reinforcements. But there's no need to worry, because we have our own trump card."

Mason looked at Arlene. Arlene nodded in confirmation.

"All right, let's roll out and get that bastard to our hands!"

______________

Rob and Ars are still flying casually. But Ars suddenly raced Rob and stopped right in front of Rob's jet.

Rob couldn't help but hit the brakes and ask: "What happened, Ars?!"

Ars did not answer. "[Dragonoid Scale: Five Layer, Red Flower]"

Ars creates three red flowers which serve as a protective barrier.

The moment after, a black beam shot straight at Ars' barrier.

The laser beam is so powerful that it created a white light that hurt the eyes.

"My eyes!"

Rob could not hold back the wave of white light and entered the room under the pilot control machine.

That lasts for about 10 seconds until the black laser starts to shrink and disappear..

Unexpectedly, that powerful attack destroyed four of Ars barriers.

Rob immediately came out after the light wave had ended. He showed a face of fear and surprise from the attack just now.

"Ars, be careful! Just now was the attack from the Black Sky Spine!"

"Black Sky Spine?! What is the Spine?"

When it comes to a Spine, what comes to mind is: a series of vertebrae extending from the skull to the small of the back, enclosing the spinal cord and providing support for the thorax and abdomen; the backbone. Or, any hard, pointed defensive projection or structure, such as a prickle of a hedgehog, a spike-like projection on a sea urchin, a sharp ray in a fish's fin, or a spike on the stem of a plant.

"Is that is?"

"Yes! Unlike other Seven Color Weapons, the Black Sky Spine is a single structure that can be combined into various weapons! From the previous attack, it looks like those bastard Bounty Hunters fused it into a laser gun!"

"Wew."

Rob received even more concern knowing their opponent had one of the Seven Color Weapons. However, as usual, Ars was still relaxed.

"I thought you were a hidden power possessed by the rotten Black Hunter group."

Suddenly someone spoke to Ars. 

He came from below, on some sort of jet motorbike. Come together with eight other people. Bounty Hunters.

"A nig-"

Ars got a little surprised when he faced the leader of the Bounty Hunters, who is a bald black man.

"Uhum! Hey, those are nice motorbikes you guys have!"

The Bounty Hunters are confused because the nature of Ars does not match their imagination. Even though yesterday he just terrorized them.

"I thought you were an old man with a scary face. Some kind of Demon King Commander. But it's turned out you look like not from their group?"

The Bounty Hunter leader tries to guess Ars' faction. 

Ars responded. "You are not actually wrong. I'm not from that ugly place. But because of a contract, I was forced to cooperate with them."

"So, where are you really from? And why are you protecting that foul behind?"

"I'm from-"

"Just get rid of them already, Ars!"

Ars wanted to tell something. But Rob couldn't wait for it.

"Don't rush me-"

Voooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Ars got disturbed again. This time it was by a loud horn sound coming from the right direction of the black giant mountain.

Everyone looked towards the source of the horn sound. Where many red lights, looking like flames, flew towards them.
