"What?!"
Meg's hands trembled, and he almost dropped the cake in his hand.
"Princess Irina is in grave danger. This information is priced at 10 dragon coins. If the host feels —"
"Deduct it yourself. Where is she now? What happened? "Mag cut off the system's words with a tense and serious expression.
"10 dragon coins have been deducted! Princess Irina is currently located on the fifth street, and she's currently under attack. Based on the strength of both sides, the probability of her death is 100%. "
The system's elated voice sounded.
"The fifth street?!" Meg's heart jolted upon hearing this. He was naturally no stranger to this place.
On that rainy night three years ago, Alex had been surrounded and killed there. The memory of that night flashed through his mind.
And now, Irina was also being attacked on the second street. Was the incident from three years ago going to repeat itself?
Meg's heart began to race.
"It smells so good! There's a cake wrapped in ice cream, and there are cute little strawberries on top. It looks so delicious!" Amy looked at the ice cream cake in Meg's hand with elation on her face.
Meg placed the cake on the table before turning to Amy with a serious expression. "Amy, I have something very important to attend to, but I can't let anyone know about it. Stay here and eat your cake, then use magic to conjure up another Father like last time. He'll stay here and eat the cake with you, alright?"
Amy looked at the anxious Meg. This was the first time she had seen such an expression on her father's face. Even though she didn't know what it was, she knew that it had to be something very important. She nodded obediently, and said, "Alright, go ahead, Father. Amy will stay here and wait for you to come back."
He waved his wand, and a Meg appeared beside Meg. Even the clothes he was wearing were identical, and there was a smile on his face.
"Good girl." Meg glanced at the Meg that was created by magic. If he didn't enter the room, he would be able to pass off as the real Meg. He reached out his hand and closed the window halfway. Then, he opened the door and looked around. After that, he dashed out of the room and nimbly flipped over the courtyard wall. After jumping over several high walls, he successfully left the Second Prince's residence.
Heavy rain poured down, hitting his face painfully.
Not a single pedestrian could be seen on the pitch-black street.
"System, I want to use that opportunity."
Meg wiped the water off his face and ran in a certain direction. At the same time, he said calmly in his heart.
"Host, there is only one chance to return to your peak state. This may be your only chance to save your life. Are you sure you want to use it now?" the system asked seriously.
"If one day, Amy finds out that I had a chance to save her mother, but gave it up because I wanted to save my own life, she'll definitely hate me." A gentle smile appeared on Meg's face as he said, "I told her that I was going to bring her mother back. Why would I lie to her? It's not like it's you."
The system was silent for a moment before issuing a stern warning, "Host, please prepare yourself. You will need three seconds to return to your peak state, and the duration will be 10 minutes. Please make sure to return to a safe location before the onset of your feeble state!"
"Three seconds?" Meg was a little surprised by the system's efficiency.
However, before Meg had a chance to think any further, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck Meg's body with a resounding boom.
That's right, it was a bolt of lightning.
Meg had never seen a bolt of lightning of different colors that could be twisted into a single bolt of lightning before crashing down from the sky with such unerring accuracy.
"Boom!"
Meg felt as if a bomb had exploded right next to his ear, leaving only a buzzing sound in his ears. Following that, a numbing sensation quickly spread throughout his body. His muscles felt as if they had been forcibly torn apart before being reconstructed amidst the lightning.
This process was obviously much more painful than the previous two electric shocks. It was even more terrifying than the blood exchange. It was as if all the cells in his body had been reconstructed. This excruciating feeling almost made Meg faint.
"Ding!"
"Physical peak state has been successfully activated. The 10-minute countdown begins." When the system's voice rang out, Meg felt as if a century had passed. The numbing sensation and pain all over his body disappeared at the same time, causing him to grin a little uncomfortably.
"It's over?" Meg was stunned for a moment. He looked down at his clothes that had completely disappeared from his body and hurriedly covered his private parts with his hands.
The torrential rain washed away the black ash left behind by the lightning strike. Meg finally felt the powerful feedback from his body. It was as if there was an endless amount of power wreaking havoc in his body. In front of this power, a fifth-tier strength was as fragile as a baby.
"So this is the power of a 10th-tier knight at the pinnacle." Meg clenched his fists. He felt as if he could shatter a city wall with a single punch. This was a power that couldn't be explained by science.
"System, give me a black robe and a mask. I'll put them on." Meg stood with his back against the wall. He really didn't have the courage to run around naked on the streets of Rodu.
"The black robe has been delivered. The system can provide over a thousand masks for the host to choose from. Among them …" Meg put on a black robe, and a series of strange masks appeared in his mind at the same time.
"I'll take the third black one." Meg only took a quick glance at it before coming to a decision.
"Ding! The mask has been delivered. 15 dragon coins have been deducted! "
Meg pulled the mask from the back of his head to the front, and it fit his face very well. He rushed forward like an arrow and instantly appeared over 100 meters away. Only then did he hear the sound of something hurtling through the air behind him.
"Hang in there, Irina. You won't be alone this time."
Meg didn't stop in the slightest as he rushed toward the fifth street in the northern part of the city like a ghost.
"System, do you work in logistics?"
"The system is a gourmet system. Logistics is —"
"100 dragon coins."
"Logistics is naturally part of the system's job. If the host has left something at home and needs help, the system is more than happy to oblige. It can be delivered within five minutes within the Norland Continent." The system's voice was filled with a hint of flattery.
"Give me Alex's sword," Meg said calmly.
"Host! Logistics is the delivery of goods. The goods must belong to the host. Only then can the system deliver them. However, you're asking the system to steal them. That's against the system's principles and beyond the scope of our services! "the system said in a serious voice.
"System, who's the owner of that sword?"
"Meg Alex."
"Then who am I?"
"Shen Meg Alex …"
"Seeing as that sword belongs to me, is it still within the logic of logistics for me to ask you to give me something that belongs to me?" Meg asked before adding, "Do it or leave it."
"I'll do it …"
The system was silent for a moment before replying in a feeble voice.
…
"Your Highness, our scouts have reported that Princess Irina seems to have been attacked on the second street!"
