Varian's heart pounded as he felt death graze him. It was so sudden and so close that even after he got into the ghost ship, he was still dumbstruck.
If he was just a moment late, then the space crack would've blown his head into pieces. At that moment, he couldn't even register what was happening.
But his mind seemed to be ready for death as it flashed the so-called life before him.
But since the time was slow, it skipped to the final moments.
First, when Varian shook hands with Dr. Thomas, the detector rang.
Then, everyone on the stage dashed to the Dungeon at the highest speed.
Dr. Thomas panicked, and his bodyguards were about to arrive at the stage to protect him.
But Varian exploited that moment and asked Boo to pull them in.
However, right when he was about to go in, the world shook and his mask broke off.
He couldn't even sense the attack, much less predict it. He didn't even blink his eyes, but Julius had already gone to the dungeon and come back.
To Varian, it was almost as if Julius had never disappeared, to begin with.
"Master! Master!"
Boo's screams snapped him out of his trance.
Varian didn't even think before unleashing his telepath powers on the man in his hands.
"N—" Dr. Thomas couldn't even utter a word before he fainted.
Boom!
But Varian couldn't even sigh in relief as the ghost ship started to shake violently.
He crashed against the wall and broke a few bones.
"Urgh!" Raising his head, he glanced at the hologram depicting the outside.
A huge golden giant raised its fist and punched against a tiny spaceship.
Boom!
Varian felt the world spin as he crashed from one edge of the wall to another and coughed out blood.
"B-Boo...go!" He muttered in a weak tone.
"Dreamer!" Julius' loud roar reverberated for hundreds of miles.
As he stomped his foot, the ground shook violently. The air seemed to stand still.
And then, he grabbed for the ghost ship.
Boom! Boom! Boom!The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.
The high awakeners raised their head and widened their eyes.
Boom!
Ghost ship was punched and like a broken rag doll, shot into the distance.
The metal from ghost ship fell from the sky as if announcing its end.
Julius' lips curled up as he once again appeared at ghost ship's location and reached out.
"Or else, everyone related to you—your family, your friends, everyone will face the consequences."
Ghost ship escaped again, he slapped it in irritation.
Kacha!
Julius sneered as its pieces continued to fall from the sky. In a few seconds, ghost ship would lose all resistance.
He infused the prana into his artifact: space ring and was about to teleport to its location when his smile suddenly froze.
Ghost ship slipped into a dungeon...the same dungeon Enigma previously appeared in.
It didn't seem to be an accident. Even though ghost ship sustained a lot of damage, every step seemed to be calculated for this step.
And that's why it directly entered the dungeon with such precision.
"Damn it!"
Julius cursed and tried to teleport directly into the dungeon.
Shhh!
But he only teleported to the entrance. Dungeons were a different space and he couldn't just teleport his way in.
"Argggh!" Julius roared as he rushed into the entrance.
The guards at the entrance were blown away by his momentum and the sheer shockwaves killed them.
It wasn't just them, however, everything in the vicinity of dozens of miles was in tatters.
"Varian!"
Julius finally shouted once he reached the dungeon.
His superhuman senses discovered the ghost ship. It was on fire, emitting smoke, and seemed to be on the verge of exploding.
The final attack really did a number on it.
Julius finally sighed in relief but didn't relax. He immediately transversed hundreds of miles and reached the ghost ship's position.
"Finally," He reached out and grabbed at the ghost ship.
Whooo!
The ghost ship tried to evade like earlier, but it was too damaged to pull it off.
Thus, ghost ship was finally in the hands of Sovereign Julius.
