Chapter 1939: Time to leave
Arken Port City
The zero puppet began to record the information in the database. It didn’t take long for the puppet to become familiar with the inner workings of the city.
It also mapped the route to the Black Monk City. There are many cities in between. But there are many routes to the Black Monk City.
The transport vehicles use different paths. The zero puppet found the pros and cons of each of these places.
There are strict inspections carried out in these cities. But there are some exceptions. People who use the Skycrock carriages can fly over the skies of the cities.
Because they had special permission from the union. There is a union for the wizards who use the skycrock. The skycrock had already become a symbol of the nation.
The people who take care of them have special privileges. The zero puppet immediately thought of the master. It knows that the Master who likes to travel anonymously.
Maybe he will like the method. Some higher-order Skycrock Monsters are intelligent. The zero puppet then collected further information in the office.
At nighttime, this office was closed. But the Zero Puppet was able to gather more information. It went through all the books here.
Eventually, the database expanded. The zero puppet was able to gather information on the Black Monk City. The Black Monk City was not an ordinary city.
Since it’s located next to the chaotic land. The wizards there are powerful. They are responsible for the protection of the border.
Meanwhile,
I’m in the hotel room. I didn’t go to sleep. I’m waiting for the zero puppet to come back. I’m sure that puppet would collect the important information.
Time passed,
Before sunrise, the red smoke entered the room through the hotel window. In the blink of an eye, the red smoke appeared in front of me.
The red smoke returned to the zero puppet.
Seeing that, my eyes gleamed with a twinkle. I’m eager to know about the information.
"Master," Zero puppet said.
"What did you find?" I asked.
Zero replied, "Master, I found out the safe route to the Black Monk City. There are many pathways."
"But if someone uses the skycrock carriages, then they have free passes to fly over the skies to reach the Black Monk City," it added.
A quick gleam appeared in my eyes.
Then I continued to listen to the zero puppet. As time passed, my expression grew solemn. I knew this city was not ordinary.
But what I didn’t expect was that the zero puppet was able to collect intel on the Black Monk City.
It seemed that the city was filled with dangerous wizards. Since it’s located next to the chaotic land, it’s understandable.
When the zero puppet finished with the explanation, I gained more knowledge. The doubts in my heart cleared.
The knowledge gives me confidence. I can now travel across the new kingdom without any worry.
Then I thought of something important. Zero puppet told me that there is an exceptional option.
"Zero, where can I hire the monster carriages?" I asked.
Zero said, "Master, all the transport services verify customer details before you are allowed to travel."
"It’s also the same with the private owners of the monster carriages. They won’t allow you to travel without verification."
"They might want to know about your purpose," the puppet added.
Hearing that, I was surprised. The puppet’s answer was good. It cleared all of my doubts.
Time passed,
The puppet had collected enough information. So I began to chat with the Zero puppet. I discussed some of my ideas with the zero puppet.
I had thought of using the help of David to reach the Black Monk City. But it turned out that plan was not good.
David knew about the cab driver. It could be possible that David might be sharing information as well.
"Do you have any better options to reach the Black Monk City?" I asked the zero puppet.
"Master, there is a wild area outside the Arkenport City. You can tame one of the wild monsters there," Zero Puppet replied.
Hearing that, I was stunned. Because I almost forgot about the new system function. With the help of the function, I can communicate with intelligent species.
So I don’t need any methods or the power of a magic artifact to take the skycrock monsters.
I understood this method was good. I decided to leave the city by this evening. Then I continued to chat with the zero puppet.
I gave the device to the zero puppet. I wanted the zero puppet to read the articles about the chaotic land. I need the help of the zero puppet in that place.
After giving the device to the zero puppet, I went to get ready.
Time passed,
The zero puppet got more information on the chaotic land. The database expanded further as well.
...
Meanwhile,
The border city officials have gathered information about the outsiders. Especially the people across the sea.
They are doing this to protect their country. Because the people from the outside could be spies of other forces.
Since it’s a border city, it’s their main responsibility to collect the intel. The Skycrest Kingdom might be stronger, but the wizard world is vast.
There could be a wizard nation or kingdom stronger than the Skycrest Kingdom. So they had to be careful. Thus, the officials are collecting reports.
Among the reports, the profile of Vincent Carey was with them as well. But the background information was simple. It had the information of the Patrick Family from Blue Pearl City.
But the further information was filled in by the spies on their side. The spies on their side varied from small shop owners to cab drivers.
The information filling was done by the employees in the city administration. It included the hotel staff as well.
That night, I got ready. I took my device and put it away inside the storage bracelet. Then I placed the zero puppet inside Gregor Mansion.
I didn’t deactivate the zero puppet. I might need the help of the zero puppet again. I checked out of the hotel room a few minutes later.
