Lu Shu made a careful calculation. There were 31 trucks, meaning the number of swords inside must be at least 10,000. The Heavenly Network would be in deep trouble if these weapons fell into the wrong hands.
Thus, in order to protect the interests of his comrades, he had to commit robbery! He did it for the Heavenly Network!
That made perfect sense! Lu Shu felt that he was committed to a noble cause...
In fact, it would be a piece of cake to stuff all the trucks into his Seal of Lands amidst the chaos right now. Besides, given the pathetic number of invisible storage equipment in the world, almost 99% of the Practitioners had not even seen one, let alone know how it worked.
Moreover, most of the invisible storage equipment had limited capacity and no one had tried to stuff trucks inside before...
Hence, as Lu Shu moved along the crowd, he had shoved 14 trucks into his Seal before anyone could figure out what was happening.
Where were the trucks? The HUGE trucks?!
The person in charge of transporting the swords immediately called his superiors to report the incident. He blurted out, “The trucks are gone!”
His superior was puzzled. “Gone? What do you mean by gone?”
“No! I mean, the swords are gone!” the reporter said.
That made his superior even more confused. “So what’s missing now? The trucks or the swords?”
“The trucks... and the swords! All of them are missing...”
The superior was dumbfounded.
That had never happened before. It was understandable if the swords were stolen, but what’s with the missing trucks?!
When he reported it to Francesco, Francesco’s face turned stern. “A powerful one with invisible storage equipment has blended into the logistics base!”
Francesco knew that things were not as simple as it seemed because even his own invisible storage equipment could only fit two trucks. But this guy had already taken 14 so far...
Then they received another call, reporting the 15th truck’s disappearance...
Francesco inhaled deeply. “Find him and kill him!”
After that, he returned to the deep forests. The area had been sealed by the Department of Faith Theory and was declared a no entry zone.
Furthermore, even members of the Department of Faith Theory were forbidden to enter the central region and only Francesco’s most trusted subordinates were seen transporting dead bodies of secret practitioners there. No one knew what was inside.
However, people had noticed that the Bishop and Francesco had been behaving abnormally after their visit to the Sacred Garden.
...
Meanwhile, as Lu Shu ran towards the 16th truck, he heard a loud yell behind him. Then, everyone beside him walked away from the truck.
Although he could not understand the language, it was clear that the cause of the missing trucks had been discovered. Thus, everybody was cleared from areas near the trucks to prevent further losses.
It was not that the Department of Faith Theory was slow in reaction, but Lu Shu was too fast. It had only been two minutes since the first truck went missing...
Besides, Lu Shu also knew that masters from the Department of Faith Theory, or even the Bishop himself, were probably heading towards them.
After all, the magical weapons stored inside were crucial to them and no lapses could be tolerated.
But Lu Shu’s objective was to steal all of them...
Nevertheless, now that their guard was up, Lu Shu could not repeat his old strategy anymore. He felt that he had done a good job so far as a spy and this should end perfectly as well.
Since all of the weapons would be transported to the base, he could always wait and take action later.
Thus, intending to be a more professional spy, Lu Shu decided to remain still.
At this moment, however, a member of the Department of Faith Theory turned to Lu Shu and said something he could not understand. Then, the man looked at Lu Shu, awaiting his reply.
Lu Shu was speechless.
How sad. The man was still waiting.
“I’ll destroy whoever suspected my identity... Why do you not understand a simple logic like this?” Lu Shu said, pitying the man before him. In the next instant, gray threads of Sparrow Shade exploded from his body like a gray tornado!
The threads swirled around him. Then, it spread outwards with the power to destroy everything!
Lu Shu’s face went cold. He placed his hand on the 16th truck as if no one was around. Instantly the vehicle disappeared as well.
People craved the truth, but sometimes they were simply not supposed to know it.
In the next second, all of the manhole covers sprang into the sky. Water pillars shot up from the sewage pipes like dragons, crushing the bones of all the people in range!
At this moment, there was a wave of energy in the air. Then, a transparent human form materialized right behind Lu Shu!
There was once a discussion about which elemental type was the most dangerous after the Class B’s could assimilate with their respective elements. Was it thunder or fire?
But there was a different idea. When the air-type assimilated with the air, their attacks would be the most difficult to defend against!
With the gray threads of Sparrow Shade surrounding him, Lu Shu was caught totally off guard. As soon as the man appeared from the atmosphere, Lu Shu spun back and caught the long sword with his bare hands.
He would have been stabbed in the heart if he had been one split second slower.
He did not know when the Class B air-type master had arrived. Or perhaps he was an overseer of the logistics base. Indeed, how could there not be an overseer with so many weapons here?
To Lu Shu’s surprise, the man disappeared into the atmosphere again after his failed first attack. He had abandoned his sword. It was as though he had been totally erased from sight!
Just when everybody expected Lu Shu to focus on the fight against the air-type expert, he darted towards the 17th truck with no hesitation...
Lu Shu knew that it would be unwise to stay there for long because he was clearly outnumbered. He had to leave immediately!
To be more precise, leave with the trucks immediately!
