Simultaneous Journey: Starting from Holy Terra

"We're almost at Nashlamy. Those two little devils are a menace, like nobles from the city. Should we get rid of them?"

"No rush. They also have magic flowing within them. If we can get them to join us, perhaps we can gain even more."

"They're nobles! How could nobles possibly be with us!"

"Don't rush. Let's stop in Nashlamy for a while and pick up the goods first."

On the upper deck of the cargo ship, two hooded men with tattoos on their cheeks were talking; they were the mages who had captured Yeming and Lux ​​of Valoran.

After capturing Ye Ming and Lux, they went into hiding, traveling to Triwell to evade pursuers from Demacia. They then boarded a Piltover merchant ship and sailed across the Sea of ​​Conquest to Nashram, the former port city of the Shurima Empire.

They were going there to retrieve a "goods," a commodity that, in their view, was enough to overthrow Demacia.

Meanwhile, in the lowest cabin of the ship, as they were exchanging words...

The bandit named Cady was furious. He never expected that his trip to help would result in the accidental killing of the nobles' guards and the capture of two of the nobles' sons!

Born in a town on the outskirts of Demacia, he naturally knew the difference between attacking an ordinary caravan and attacking a noble guard!

In his view, everyone must die this time!

Even if they escape to Shurima or Ionia, the Demacian sentinels will track them down and cut off their heads!

The prospect of death on either side made him somewhat irritable.

Coincidentally, he saw Lux's face while delivering food this morning.

That fair and delicate face, as smooth as jade, that cute, slightly upturned nose, those cherry-like lips, and those eyes that seemed to speak volumes…

Everything was tempting Katie!

And now, his opportunity has arrived!

He's on night duty tonight, and he's in charge of the warehouse. He'll be the only one in the warehouse at this time. Once he closes the door, no one will hear what happens inside!

So he took action!

However, the operation did not go smoothly. Those two little bastards from the noble family were not asleep. They noticed their actions. That coward who attacked first dared to take the initiative to attack them!

Katie was furious; his anger rose from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't help but draw his sword and slash at the boy's neck.

He was confident that he could sever the other man's head with a single sword strike!

But things didn't go as he wished.

Just as his sword was about to fall, the girl behind him suddenly burst forth with a bright, dazzling light!

A beam of light flew over, and Katie felt her hand being jolted by something, causing it to shift uncontrollably.

Then he saw the little boy, who was carrying nothing on him, pull out a gun from behind his back that he had never seen before.

Where did he hide these things?

This was Cady's last thought. Then he saw the boy raise his hand, block his sword with his gun, and then take out a test tube and drink a vial of medicine.

Then he pulled out another sword from behind his back. The sword he held in his right hand made a "humming" sound and emitted a ghostly blue light.

With a forceful thrust, he pierced the sword into his own throat...

"Bang!"

Ye Ming, panting heavily, turned around and quickly hugged Lux. "Are you alright? Don't look."

Ye Ming covered Lux's eyes to prevent her from seeing Katie's body.

If it were a normal one-hit kill, Ye Ming might let Lux get used to the adult world beforehand.

Read Chapter 96, Escape, now to begin your exciting day.

But it was a powered sword that was in motion.

When the power sword's energy cell is activated, the blade is enveloped in a deadly corona with destructive energy. This energy field allows the blade to cut through flesh, bone, and most types of armor plates, and can also break the molecular bonds of the object it hits, causing it to shatter and disintegrate.

As a mass-produced power sword, it possesses all of the above capabilities; its only drawback is the relatively poor quality of its materials.

After penetrating the robber's throat, the power sword's immense force shattered the robber's neck, chest, and head!

Right now, he's just a lump of mud!

"I'm fine, how are you? Did he hurt you just now?" Lux reached out and touched Ye Ming's face. When he first resisted, Ye Ming was punched by the robber, and his mouth was broken.

"It's okay, I'm all better now."

Ye Ming smiled. He saw the magical attack coming from Lux. If it weren't for Lux's attack, he might not have had time to drink the potion and grab the sword!

Moreover, Lux did not panic after the attack; she was stronger than anyone imagined.

"We need to wait a little longer. The ship will dock soon, and then we can disembark and find a chance to escape."

"Yes!" Lux nodded, trusting Ye Ming unconditionally.

"Yes!" Lux nodded, trusting Ye Ming unconditionally.

Ye Ming got up, took the power sword back, wiped it with the bandit's clothes, and then sheathed it.

He went back and searched the bottom of the cabin, finding some food and water. He ate some with Lux to replenish their strength, then washed away the bloodstains and covered up the smell before sitting down and quietly waiting for the right moment.

Ye Ming held Lux ​​in his arms, and Lux ​​fell asleep in his embrace.

He kept an eye on the sky outside through the window above the bottom of the bunk.

He actually regrets it now.

Before he set off, many people advised him that it was not safe to go out recently and that he should not go out unnecessarily.

But he persisted in his decision, believing that he was safe with guards around, and even took Lux with him, putting her in danger as well...

Ye Ming sighed as he thought about it, but soon became confused.

He didn't know how much time had passed when, with a slight bump, Ye Ming suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously glanced at the window and the hatch at the bottom of the cabin.

Its daybreak.

"Why hasn't Katie come out yet?"

"I don't know, maybe she was secretly having fun down there?"

"He got off easy. Since he didn't come out, let him keep guarding. Let's go down and have some fun!"

"Those mages are certainly generous, but what are they rushing off to so early in the morning?"

"Who knows? Hurry up, hurry up, or they'll have picked them all!"

The two robbers' voices faded into the distance. Ye Ming waited until there was no sound outside the door before calling Lux softly.

Lux.

"Um……"

Lux was still curled up in Ye Ming's arms. When she heard Ye Ming call her name, Lux's eyelashes trembled slightly.

But she quickly snuggled closer to Ye Ming in a daze. Ye Ming reached out and tickled her waist, which finally woke Lux up completely. She pouted and looked up at Ye Ming.

Lux's pretty face flushed slightly, leaving Ye Ming somewhat stunned.

But Ye Ming quickly came to his senses, pinched her cheek, and whispered with a smile, "Get up quickly, we're getting ready to disembark."

Ye Ming patted her, and Lux ​​silently got up, put on her cloak, and reached out to hold Ye Ming's hand.

Ye Ming gripped her hand tightly, so tightly that Lux felt a little pain, but Lux didn't say anything. She knew that Ye Ming was also very nervous.

Ye Ming stepped forward and slowly pushed open the door at the bottom of the cabin...
