Unfathomable Senior

Chapter 645

“Hey what are you doing...”

“Oh... Don’t mind me, I’m just looking for the toilet...”

“The toilet?”

“Yeah...”

“...”

Zhang Dong showed a bright smile to the large mermaid in the throne room while moving to the side. She had been busy talking to herself and apparently while she was in that state the soldiers gathered here remained in a passive state. There was certainly something ingrained in the clone programming that made them freeze whenever their Empress was talking. This fact was used by him to begin his plan of sneaking away.

“Well then... I’ll be right back!”

“What!?”

He quickly shifted into his shadowy form that allowed him to pass through so many troublesome trials. While in it he could traverse through this room while evading the guards that were unable to pinpoint his position. This of course didn’t sit well with their leader that started thrashing about.

“What are you waiting for, CATCH HIM AND BRING HIM TO ME!”

“Yes, Empress!”

The group of mermaids that were in this room scattered to the side. They didn’t seem to have been made for combat. Their bodies seemed to be close to the levels of core formation but it didn’t seem that they had been tonight much. Perhaps their mother that had created them to act as vessels wanted to keep their bodies without any blemishes like scars. Instead, the cloned warriors with tridents tossed themselves his way as he sunk into the ground.

‘Are you sure you can’t limit it to the right one, Bob?’

‘Requires more data’

‘Any way to input more data? I’m not sure what we are looking for Bob.’

‘User must get closer to one of the locations to gather more data.’

‘I see...’

Bob gave him more than ten locations in this place that could have the power source for the grand formation outside. If he wanted to have a fighting chance he needed to let his people inside. Teleporting wasn’t an option and it also didn’t seem that this Empress wanted to talk. She had mumbled some obscenities while alluding to wanting his child making juices.

“You fool, your powers won’t work here!”

His expectations weren’t met as he was still in the corridor and his path was being blocked. This place was composed of some strange materials that were able to absorb large amounts of spiritual energy. Yet even though the enemies were coming from behind he didn’t stop staring at his destination. Even though all of his energies were dispersed, there still was some damage on the spot that he hit.

“They won’t? Are you sure about that?”

After shouting at the man that was approaching from behind with some other cloned soldiers he pushed forward. His upper body became a blur as a massive barrage of punches connected with the metallic gate. The men that were chasing after him stopped for a moment as they couldn’t believe that he was producing holes in the high-quality material, this was not something that should have been a possibility.

Zhang Dong’s spiritual energy was great and all of his attacks could only be blocked by a handful of people in this world. Qi was perhaps his forte when it came to fighting but it was not his only weapon. His body had long since left the realms of humans, he was like a person made from metal and his strength was humongous. If his spiritual energy was absorbed by the materials here he just needed to change his approach. The indention that he left behind by his first attack was proof that he could break through with just his body alone. There was no need for fancy techniques or abilities, his fists were enough.

“I’ll be going through first, see ya!”

Even though he was punching like crazy, only a small hole was produced. This however was more than enough for him to get through. His enemies didn’t think that he could get through this barricade so they didn’t fully illuminate the room inside. Thanks to this he was able to slip into the shadows that were produced and get himself inside.

“So this is it?”

‘Large energy signature detected.’

Bob confirmed that they had found the source of power that lay right in the middle of this chamber. It was a mostly dark room with some light shindig at a lone dais. Right in the middle there was a floating object that was encased in a soap bubble. At first glance, it looked like a pink sea shell but it was not that simple. It contained a massive amount of water Qi that was on par or even superior to the engine from his flying fortress.

‘This is it!’

He could hear the fish soldiers pounding on the door. After he dent a hole into it, the opening mechanism was also destroyed, and squeezing through the small hole was not an easy task. This was the end of his mission, after grabbing the item inside of the soap bubble the outside soap bubble would pop. Zhang Dong nodded and sprinted forward with his eyes glued to the

prize.

“Hah, did you really think that I’d fall for a simple trap like this?”

Yet before his hand grasped for this treasure he pointed in another direction. A beam of light escaped from his fingers that sent his holy lightning at the being hidden in the shadows. During the charge he had realized that this was all a setup, if he grasped the treasure there it would be encased in a bubble.

“You figured it out? My my, you might actually be worthy of being my mate~”

The voice belonged to the Cerulean Empress and it echoed throughout the entire chamber. Yet even with his eyes being able to see through the darkness, he could not see the woman’s form, instead, there was something else.

“Why does it always have to be tentacles..”
