Conquering The Game's World

"You are so efficient."

Although he praised her. The corner of his mouth kept twitching. 'Should I let her search in a separate location from us?' Luis thought about it for a moment. Then shook his head with a sigh. 'Well, forget it. Let's just take her along and see what she is capable of. If there's any danger, I'll let Cobert protect her.'

William couldn't pose any threat to them. However, since he was last seen going to the dockyard. Luis had a feeling that William had called for outside helpers.

This was only his guess for now. As they can only know the actual situation after the investigation.

{Lily, send button drones to the dockyard and search for William and Bonnie.}

{Yes, Master.}

After commanding Lily, Luis brought his attention back to Cobert and Sufi. Then said in a sharp voice.

"Follow me!"

Without waiting for their response, Luis turned back and started walking out of private training ground number 62.

Cobert has been observing the changes in Luis' expressions and his body language. When he commanded them just now, he could see Luis was very confident. He wondered if Luis had some information. However, he didn't question and quietly followed him out.

Sufi wanted to complain and question him. But the two of them had already started leaving. So she gave an annoyed snort and started matching their pace.

***

After they came out, Luis hailed a hovercar. Then, along with Cobert and Sufi, entered inside.

"Please, take us to the dockyard! We are in a hurry! So please drive fast!" Luis said, his tone carrying a sense of urgency.

The driver nodded in assurance. "Don't worry! I'll get you there in half the time!"

"Thank you!" Luis showed a gentle smile. As the driver started speeding up.

Sufi had a confused expression on her face as she raised her question. "Why are we going to the dockyard?"

Cobert's listless eyes also looked at Luis, as he had the same question in his mind.

Luis didn't hide it. "William was last seen going to the dockyard 2 hours ago."

"Huh…?" Sufi raised her brows in surprise. Then asked with haste. "How did you know?!"

"Someone I know helped me find it." Luis gave a vague answer.

Cobert kept staring at him in silence as he pondered. 'I didn't see him contact anyone other than Diana. When did he ask for someone's help?'

No matter how much he thought about it, Cobert had no answer to the veil of mystery surrounding Luis.

'The more I try to see through him… the more mysterious he becomes… and this sense of mystery makes him even more dangerous.'

Sufi wasn't satisfied with his answer and wanted to raise more questions.

Luis noticed this, so he decisively diverted the topic. "How I got the information is not important. What matters right now is that we must find out. What is William trying to do?"

Result? He succeeded.

Sufi's expression changed to disdain. As she snorted and spoke. "Is there even a need to think? Isn't it obvious? That pathetic guy must be trying to take revenge for what happened earlier."

Luis and Cobert also agreed with her. So, none of them spoke up in William's favour.

---

On their way, Lily's voice sounded inside Luis' mind.

{Master, I found William. He just went inside a warehouse near the dockyard, along with a few older men.}

{Did you find their identity?}

{Yes! They are all criminals from the Aiverson empire with several murder cases on their heads.}

{How did they even get past the inspection?} Luis felt weird. He didn't expect Oracle Academy to do such a poor job that they even permitted criminals to dock.

{They are wearing human face masks to change their appearance and hide their identity. The academy guards haven't been alerted because they are pretending to be ordinary tourists. I just scanned through their face masks to find their identity.}

{Ah! I see. No wonder.}

The people who inspected them shouldn't be powerful. It's not surprising that they were deceived. 'Still, it's disappointing that Oracle Academy made such a low-level mistake.' Luis shook his head with a sigh. As the number one academy of Alnaur. He expected better from them.

However, when he thought of future events. He knew it was just the start of such mistakes. A weary breath escaped his mouth. 'If the Academy's mysterious principal was here. 70% of the incidents that happened inside Oracle Academy could have been stopped ahead of time.'

Luis stopped thinking about it. As there was no point doing that now. It's better to focus on finding Bonnie right now.

{Master, I just scanned. The warehouse is surrounded by a sound barrier and a low-grade anti-reconnaissance array.}

{So, they do plan to do something inside that warehouse.} Already expecting such a possibility.

Luis told the driver about the new location.

"Oh, I know that place. No problem, I'll drop you there."

"How long will it take us to get there?" Luis asked.

"12 minutes." The driver replied.

"I see." Luis nodded and didn't urge the driver to go any faster. As he could see that the hover car was already hovering very fast.

He ordered in his mind. {Send the button drones to follow William and show me the video feed of inside the warehouse.}

{Yes master.}

'Why do these criminals choose locations like warehouses or other storage places to do something? The same was the case in the Temar Kingdom mission.' Luis seriously wondered if there was some Criminals Code of Ethics that he didn't know about.

While Luis was deep in thought. The hologram of his mana bracelet popped up. Which attracted the attention of Cobert and Sufi.

"Guys, watch this." Luis' voice sounded as he shared the screen access to them. Now they can also watch the video through their mana bracelet. At the same time, he also stuffed two pairs of earpieces in their hands.

"Why do you want us to watch some video now?" Sufi asked with a frown.

"It's the live video feed of what William is doing." Luis' answer surprised both Sufi and Cobert, but the video had already started playing. So, they could only save the questions for later and bring their attention to the screen.
