Divine Path System

Chapter 349 - Uranus’ Cluster Cities

Varian threw the trash into ghostship and had Boo 'interrogate'.

Under his unintentional training, Boo was becoming more and more proficient in matters of kidnapping, torture, and interrogation.

Varian also had those three members of level 6 he kidnapped from earlier. After his training, Boo put them in a coma and did some brainwashing.

Apparently, he and Sarah were targets of assassination. It was a pity that they too had no information on the real mastermind.

'But seriously, isn't Boo enjoying this too much?' Varian tapped his chin and thought.

"P-Please! N-Not there. We'll reveal everything."

"I-I'll even reveal the secrets of my grandfather."

"Fuck you guys! I can reveal both of their secrets. Just promise that you'll kill me."

"Muahahaha!"

Varian listened to his little ghost's sadistic laughter and sighed in disappointment.

If only Boo was like him. He never tortured anyone. What a morally upright person.

'I just outsource it.'

After a few minutes, Boo gave him a military salute and reported its findings.

"Master, they know some of the secret entrances to Roshnium mines. They went in and stole. But they couldn't sit still and brag in one of the clubs. They were followed and had to fight their way out."

"Serves them right." Varian clicked his tongue. "Did I ever brag my achievements?"

"…." 'You're the one to talk.' Boo almost said.

Varian rolled his eyes at Boo's silence and asked. "What's going on with Roshnium?"

"It's a precious metal only available on earth. Previously Ganbald Clan controlled the mines. But now—"

"Ganbald who?"

Boo looked at Varian with a serious gaze as if asking. 'Did you really forget?'

Varian nodded.

"…Master, remember when Enigma attacked the three vassal clans of Xanders when you were in the lost dungeon?

We sneaked into Astor Clan. The other two clans were Ganbold and Martin. Ganbold Clan pretty much controlled Roshnium mines on Earth."

"Oh. I remember." Varian nodded with an understanding expression.

'You totally forgot!' Boo wanted to yell, but as a good ghost, it controlled its expression and continued.

"After Enigma pretty much dismantled these the Ganbold clan, the Roshnium mines fell into new powers.

According to some news, the Ganbold clan had shady deals with Shadow Order. They used to sell the metal.

After Ganbold Clan fell, Shadow Order released rewards for those who can get the Roshnium metal.

These fools happen to know one of the secret tunnels in the mines."

Fools because if it was a clever person, they'd have made a fortune in silence and never reveal any traces.

Seriously, what kind of idiot would brag about their crimes in a public place?

Varian recalled the news from earlier. Shadow Order also stole Goreiki metal and now they're also procuring Roshnium.

According to the dark web, kidnapping cases were also on the rise.

"Just what the fuck is happening?" He growled in annoyance.

If only this Shadow Order didn't exist…

"What about their criminal records?"

"They each have at least ten innocent lives under their belt. Just like now, they barged into homes while escaping and killed the residents."

"Throw them on planetoid frontlines," Varian said as if it was not a big deal.

"Pardon?"

"They are a waste of air. Drug them and throw them to? Abyssals. They will at least kill one or two before they die." Varian said in a bone-chilling voice.

He was grateful that he didn't encounter a gang like this when he was younger…he really didn't want others to be victims.

Ghost Ship took off from Earth. In a few minutes, they reached a planetoid and stopped above a border area where level 4s were deployed on both sides.

Boo injected the three living trashes with rage-inducing drugs and threw them onto the Abyssals.

The trio was in a berserk mode and killed two Abyssals before being killed.

"Two? Not bad, I guess." Varian didn't feel sorry for them.

Then Ghost ship started the journey towards Valos City in Uranus Cluster Cities.

Enigma told him he could take the space shuttles of Shadow Guardians, but he declined.

Though eccentric, Boo was more reliable.

"How long is it going to take?" Varian asked as he looked at Earth which was quickly shrinking into a blue dot.

Near that blue dot was a red dot that was the moon.

"Valos City, un, ten days."

"Say what?!" Varian almost flipped the table.

Behind him was the vast, empty black space. There were occasionally one or two glittering lights—a patrolling space shuttle or a distant planetoid.

Of course, he could turn back and always glance at the two bright suns, but come on! Ten days of travel was too much.

Boo was flabbergasted at Varian's reaction.

"Master, do you think we are going on a vacation to another city? We are almost traveling from one end of the Solar System to another end. Of course, it'd take time.

Even if you take the best space shuttles of the federation, it'd take two weeks at least."

Varian's shoulders slumped.

"No other way?"

"If I wasn't damaged, heck, if I could repair my space sub-system even a bit, we could reach there like in 1 day."

"…" Varian covered his face.

"Well…then teleportation formations are the only answer."

"Haa~" Varian knew the army was so protective of teleportation formations, but only now did he practically experience it.

Suppose a war started and reinforcements needed to be sent, then 10 days of travel time would mean that by the time these reinforcements arrived, the war would've been lost.

"Teleportation formations have very strict usage requirements. Forget it." Varian waved his hand.

Ten days…he needed to be alone on this ghost—Wait!

"Boo, wake up those three." Varian stretched his arms and grinned.

"Right away! You can go all out, master. Even though I limited their strength, they're peak level 6s anyway."

"I will." Varian's smile widened.

Soon, he entered the training room built of reinforced walls.

"Wua."

"Eh?"

"Hum"

The three ex-assassins opened their eyes and saw a young man grinning at them.

Their minds were cloudy and they couldn't remember anything. All they had in their mind was one command.

Kill!

Space distorted as lightning roiled and the wind was punched.

Varian looked at their attacks and raised his fist. "YES!"

*** *** ***

Ghostship took no breaks and passed Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus.

After two and half days of further travel, they neared a group of glowing cities in the dark space.

By normal human standards, these cities were all far apart by tens of thousands of miles.

But viewing them from ghost ship, they were incredibly close. Like a cluster of shining stars.

"Master, we've reached the Uranus' Cluster Cities."
