Chapter 335: Medicine Procurement (2)
Yan was confused by Hao Ren's dress, and the young man said, "Miss Shiba, you will be coming along with me, I will need you to identify where is the container of all the medicinal herbs is on that ship. Yan, go home, I will see you later."
Yan wanted to say something when Yue Shiba said, "Master Hao, we can take this car."
Yue Shiba took out some money from her pocket and gave it to Yan as she whispered, "Take a cab, we are running late."
Yan was looking at her with eyes wide open when Hao Ren sighed and tossed him the keys to his room. He said, "Stay here for the night, I will come back in the morning."
Yan looked at his sister and said, "Traitor."
Yue Shiba smiled wryly, and they sent Yan inside the building with there eyes. Then he raised his hand towards Yue Shiba. The girl was confused and the young man said, "Hold on to me, and no matter what happens do not let go."
Yue Shiba was confused and then she held onto his arm. The next moment, she felt the world around her shrink. Before she could comprehend what was going on, she was in the sky and she yelled in fear.
Hao Ren gave her a glance, and she froze. They were flying at a high speed, and Yue Shiba was so scared that she almost peed herself. The traversed over the entire nation and came to the southern ports in fifteen minutes. The distance was five thousand kilometers, which meant Hao Ren was flying way faster than a fighter jet.
When they landed on the ground, Yue Shiba felt her legs turn to jelly. The young man looked at her calmly and said, "This is just the beginning, what is about to happen might scare you to death."
Yue Shiba tried to calm her mind and then she regained her composure shortly after. At this moment, a military jeep arrived and an officer got down. He looked at Hao Ren and asked, "Are you Master Hao?"
Hao Ren nodded, and the soldier said, "This way, please."
The soldiers had been ordered not to act out or question Hao Ren as he had been given a free reign to handle this situation. The people were skeptical but the military did not have any room for questions or doubts. So they carried out their task properly.
They led the duo to the pier and the officer said, "Master Hao this speed boat will take us to the container ship within an hour."
Hao Ren asked, "Do you have any other vessels over there?"
The officer nodded and said, "Yes, two destroyers are posted there and they are maintaining vigil."
Hao Ren nodded and said, "Inform the officer incharge, I am going ahead and you can catch up."
The officer was still surprised when he saw Hao Ren appear ten meters away from the land. He was standing on water and the people were shocked. Then Hao Ren used his quick speed to vanish from the position.
The soldiers looked at Yue Shiba who shook her head and said, "I cannot do anything like that, I am just a normal person, Master Ye brought me here by flying across the nation."
The soldiers were shocked, and then the person who received Hao Ren took his walkie and sent the message to the superiors on the destroyer.
...
Hao Ren was walking through the void covering several hundred meters with each step. He was not flying because that might alert the enemy. What if they made a premeditated plan to attack him. The element of surprise and unpredictability was the best weapon in any battle.
The young man located the two destroyers and after selecting one, he landed on the deck. The soldiers were shocked to see him, but just when they wanted to react, they found their bodies frozen in place. Hao Ren gently floated over to the door of the bridge and went inside. Similarly the people here were also frozen.
Hao Ren looked at the officer with the most decorated chest and asked, "Are you in command?"
The captain nodded, and Hao Ren let go of everyone before he asked, "Can you tell me what you know about the enemy? Any special details?"
The middle-aged captain took a deep breath, he could not understand what was going on here, but this young man's sight caused his heart to fasten. It was a fear that originated from his core, Hao Ren was akin to a tiger.
He said, "Sir, there are twenty men on that vessel, and they are supernatural ability users, that is all we know, what sort of abilities, we have no idea."
Hao Ren nodded and said, "Thanks."
Then he turned around and walked away as if it was normal. Hao Ren came to the bow of the ship and with some pressure on his feet, he vanished.
...
The pirates were walking around the containers, patrolling, and their body language was very careless. They could not even detect Hao Ren's presence as he flickered from one container to the other. After a few moments, he appeared in the bridge and found a man sitting in the captain chair, and the place was covered with blood stains and puddles.
Hao Ren walked inside with his hands inside his pocket. The man sensed him and was shocked. He was about to say something when Hao Ren waved his hand and the man was frozen. Looking at him, Hao Ren said, "Your eyes are filled with shock, did you think that you were the only one with special abilities in the world?"
The man could not say anything. Hao Ren looked at him and asked, "Are you the leader?" Explore more at empire
The man shook his head, and Hao Ren took back the pressure as he used his hypnosis ability, "Where is the leader?"
The man replied in a daze, "In the level below, there were a few women we captured."
Hao Ren sighed and waved his hand to behead the guy cleanly. The blood fountain erupted from his neck. The young man vanished from his spot and came to the lower level where the hostages were kept.
Hao Ren came into a corridor and heard some wails and protesting screams, then he heard a loud laughter and said, "I knew women in this part of the world are the best. Look at how you beg."
Hao Ren found himself standing outside the mess hall, and he stepped in with an indifferent face. He looked at the man who was bending over, and was raping a woman. He sighed and said, "I did not expect to meet a pervert."
The man froze, and then he turned around to look at Hao Ren before he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who the fuck are you?"
Hao Ren replied, "You don't deserve to know that. Would you show me what you can do, or can I just kill you and leave here?"
The man clicked his tongue and turned around to look at Hao Ren. The man had good sculpted muscles but after a grunt his body began to shiver and his skin began to squirm. His snout enlarged and his muscles expanded even more.
Hao Ren watched with great interest as the man turned into a lycanthrope. The young man chuckled and said, "Fucking dog, here I thought it was difficult to deal with."
The beast growled and dashed at him. Hao Ren raised his hand and slapped the man across the face as he said, "Good dog, sit down."
The man's hands had turned into claws that left deep tear marks on the metal floor. The man dashed at Hao Ren once more, and tried to claw the young man who said, "Well, what a waste."
He grabbed the arm, and used his force to tear it apart. Then he used the spirit sword to behead the man. At the same time, he approached the women there, and used his hypnosis skills to wipe their memories, and used his spiritual energy to heal them as well.
They were innocent and they did not deserve to live with a scar on their conscience. Hao Ren then slowly moved around killing the people. He was kind enough to give them all a chance to defend and protect themselves, but he made sure to kill them, and behead them.
The people died but they did not turn back to human form. Hao Ren then informed the navy ships to send over people and clean up. He waited for Yue Shiba to come over and bring him the medicine directly from the container where it was stored. The young lady was shaken by the amount of blood on the ship but she was helped by the navy officers and managed to get things done.
She handed over a big silver suitcase to Hao Ren and said, "Master Hao, this is the case. Please check."
Hao Ren opened the case, and quickly checked the material before he nodded and smiled at her. He said, "Thank you, I owe you one."
*Ding: Host, the task is complete, you gained forty points."
At this moment, his phone rang, and when he checked, it was Han Ming, and he frowned the timing of this call did not make any sense.
