After hearing his questions, Annette couldn’t help but reply, “Yes. Gremlins are very powerful creatures with steel-like tails that could reach over a mile around them. The spiked tips at the end of their tails can easily smash apart the hardest naturally made materials on the planet.” as she pointed to the tail end of one of her gremlins, where a coiled tail could be seen.
Hui Shi quickly continued where she left off, after seeing her gesture, “Their tails are not the only things that make these creatures powerful. Although their tall and gaunt figures make them look slightly emaciated and weak, they’re very fast and agile creatures that can run over 200 miles an hour very easily, for days on end without feeling the slightest bit of exhaustion.”
Hearing their words, Lain could only reply gently, “I see… Thanks for your answers. It seems these chariots are worth their price, being protected by such a ferocious monster.” as he continued walking forward before jealousy slowly started filling his heart. Soon his thoughts also reflected his jealousy as he couldn’t stop thinking in his head ‘$200,000 Yearning Dollars…200 miles an hour…powerful gremlin…’
As Hui Shi and Annette saw the aimlessly walking Lain, with eyes that showed extreme jealousy, Annette couldn’t help but think ‘Is he jealous of me? He can’t be jealous of a young lady like me, right?’ Before being drowned in her own thoughts that were filled with questions about their origins, that she currently couldn’t bring herself to ask.
Hui Shi on the other hand could only feel embarrassed, while looking at the quietly walking Lain, as he noticed his jealousy as well, before looking away with a slight sigh.
The four then continued walking for 10 minutes in silence, before Hui Shi looked around him casually in doubt, as he thought ‘Have we walked pass this area before?’ Seeing Hui Shi look around, Lain also began to feel weird. He then also looked around in silence as they continued walking forward, with thoughts of doubt gradually filling his head as well.
But as the two were quietly contemplating, they were interrupted by the voice of Annette as she asked “There’s something that have baffled me that I would like to ask you, brother Hui Shi.”
Pulled out of his thoughts, Hui Shi could only reply awkwardly to Annette, “What’s the issue, my dearest sister?” Hearing their words, Lain, also came out of his train of thoughts as he anticipated her question.
“Why are you a wanted man? A great priest of Ensieth like yourself is usually held in high regard all over the empire. Who have you gone against to cause your current predicament?”
Hearing her question, Lain also added, “I’m also quite baffled about this as well. Please brother Hui Shi, who’ve made themselves your enemy In the past?”6Please respect copyright.PENANAOpJvJ8tPGH
