Lola took out a pair of bronze binoculars from her backpack and muttered: "Binoculars, let me see who's chasing us"
She raised the binoculars and randomly looked in a certain direction.
Ye Fei Li doubtfully asked: "Your majesty, the direction you're looking at — –"
"Shh!"
Lola gestured for him to calm down.
She looked through the binoculars for a bit, then quickly explained: "The one controlling the ship is the chairman of the 900 million World Layers Spaceship Association — — his ship is publicly acknowledged to be the fastest"
"There are a few dozen navigators on board, they've already begun to use their abilities to speed up the ship"
"If we continue to travel at a normal speed, it'll only take half a day for them to catch up"
Saying so, Lola put the binoculars away and looked up at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan nodded: "I understand, don't we have a fast ship?"
Lola explained: "Because I'm the Queen, all of my ships are very good-looking and safe — — unfortunately, in front of that monster, these safety measures don't seem to exist at all"
"Because of safety, the Queen Of Thorns's ship isn't actually very fast?" Gu Qing Shan smiled.
Lola smirked and put her hand into her backpack.
"The royal family naturally prioritizes safety as a top priority when buying a ship, but I bought it myself — –"
She took out a piece of spatial sealing paper and tossed it to the sky.
The sealing paper burst open.
A sleek red bullet-shaped ship appeared in front of them.
Jang Young-ho whistled.
The ship looked extremely beautiful.
Lola explained: "It doesn't have any defensive facilities, only speed. The cooperation of the previous 5 chairmen of the 900 million World Layers Spaceship Association took 1 year to complete"
Jang Young-ho asked: "How's its speed?"
Lola shrugged: "It's twice as fast as their ship — — I occasionally race against people my age, and I always win"
"If that's the case, it won't be safe every time you use it in a competition," Gu Qing Shan said in a low voice.
Lola replied matter-of-factly: "At the time, there were no monsters like the Soul Shrieker in the 900 million World Layers, and I could summon the Great Bramble Tree whenever I wanted, so there was nothing that could threaten me"
"Do you like spaceships?" Jang Young-ho asked.
"Yeah, whether it's a collection or a competition, it's a great way to reduce stress."
Speaking of flying competitions, Lola happily counted her fingers and said, "When the spaceship was built, I knew about it. I immediately gathered many skilled spaceship builders to build a spaceship for me."
"I'm the Queen Of Thorns. I won't let anyone beat me in a flying competition."
"I have a total of five spaceships that are faster than theirs. The price of each one is enough to buy a few worlds."
Lola's expression was very natural, and her tone sounded like she was talking about her favorite toy.
It was impossible to tell what she was showing off.
For her, it was just a hobby, a way for her to pass the time.
There was no need to show off or compare.
— — because no one had ever been able to compare to her in this aspect.
Gu Qing Shan said: "Alright, the only thing we need to worry about now is that they have too many people who can increase the speed of their spaceship, that's the only threat"
Ye Fei Li patted her chest: "Don't worry, just leave that to us"
"Hm, let's not waste any time and get going" Jang Young-ho also said.
At this point, Boss had already recovered a bit and could barely walk. The four of them boarded the ship.
The interior of the ship wasn't very spacious, only about a few dozen square meters of space for everyone to move around, much less than the Queen Of Thorns.
It was easy to see that for the sake of speed, this ship had given up on many of its functions.
Lola sat in the pilot's seat, skillfully piloting the ship.
The airship let out a loud rumbling noise as it took off from the damaged [Empress] and quickly disappeared into the space vortex, slowly going away.
Time slowly passed.
Lola once again took out the pair of bronze binoculars to look behind them and said: "There are two true experts among them, each time it's their turn to pilot the ship, they'll be able to close the gap between us and them"
Jang Young-ho was the first to speak: "Then we should also make our move"
He reached his hand out and began to draw a card from the void of space.
Very quickly, five cards were drawn in his hand.
"Ah … let me see, I got it"
He drew a card and placed it on the floor.
It was a card with dark runes on it, and a pair of wings was drawn on it.
Ye Fei Li curiously asked: "Are you going to use this card to increase the ship's speed?"
Jang Young-ho replied: "This is the Hitman deck's Wings Of The Net, it can increase the speed of any vehicle"
He placed his hand on the card and infused it with power.
The card disappeared from the floor.
The ship began to speed up!
Lola controlled the ship and glanced at the speedometer.
"Increased speed by 50%, how impressive!"
She excitedly praised.
"But it doesn't last for too long, this card's effect can only last for about 10 minutes, after which you'll need to rest" Jang Young-ho commented.
"10 minutes? That's not bad, it'll help us put some distance between us "Lola commented.
Ye Fei Li crossed her arms: "That's not bad at all, I thought I would be the one who would be able to help"
Gu Qing Shan smiled: "Cards often contain miraculous combinations of certain Laws, Fei Li, you'll see a lot of strange things in the 900 million World Layers, don't use your old way of looking at things"
"I understand" Ye Fei Li nodded.
10 minutes quickly passed.
The ship slowly returned to its original speed.
Ye Fei Li said: "Now it's my turn"
He drew the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook and muttered: "Followers, I need your power"
The hook began to glow in a faint yellow light. This light slowly detached from the hook and manifested into a semi-transparent form.
"These are … ghosts?" Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
"Yes, they're all people who just died not too long ago. Borrowing my power to help them achieve the wish they had when they were still alive, but they weren't willing to forget everything and reincarnate, instead choosing to follow me" Ye Fei Li replied.
The silhouettes of the ghosts slowly became clear.
They all bowed to Ye Fei Li.
"Because these ghosts are very unique, they more or less have unique abilities, so I'm willing to bring them along as a bit of help" Ye Fei Li explained.
Ye Fei Li reached his hand out and pointed at one of the souls.
"Jim, I remember your ability is [Weight of All Things], you'll be responsible for lowering the ship's weight a bit"
"Everyone else, get out of the ship and think of a way to speed it up"
As soon as Ye Fei Li said so, the ghosts scattered and began to follow Ye Fei Li's orders.
The ship began to speed up again.
Lola stared closely at the speedometer and said: "The speed has increased by 20% — — Count, how long can this ability of yours last?"
Ye Fei Li replied: "Half an hour"
"That's right, although it won't be as fast as Jang Young-ho, half an hour is more than enough time to ensure that the distance between us and the Soul Shrieker won't decrease"
At this point, Boss's book began to hover and draw everyone's attention.
As the book flipped open, lines of text appeared on it:
[Gu Qing Shan, you must remember something — — - the distance between us and the Soul Shrieker will determine how much time you have to find that Card after you reach your destination]
[We need to speed up as much as possible to leave the Soul Shrieker far behind and give you enough time to search for the Card]
After reading through the text, Gu Qing Shan nodded: "I was thinking the same thing, so I'll be speeding up the ship from now on"
Saying so, he walked to the ship's entrance, opened the hatch, and went out.
The hatch was closed.
Jang Young-ho and Ye Fei Li exchanged glances.
"What's he going to do?" Jang Young-ho asked.
"How would I know?" Ye Fei Li replied.
Lola turned on the ship's surveillance device, stared closely at it, and chimed in: "When big brother Qing Shan does something, it's usually only at the very end that others will know what's going on"
Jang Young-ho and Ye Fei Li both nodded in agreement.
Outside the ship.
Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to observe his surroundings.
He found two places that he could hold on to, put his hands on them, and held on tight.
The ship was moving very quickly, so he had to use spirit energy to protect himself from the intense winds of the void.
Gu Qing Shan crouched there, glanced at the War God UI, and displayed the description of a certain skill:
[Shadow Shift: Divine Skill, Instant Cast Skill. You can swap places with any being within the range of your Divine Sense.]
[Description: This Skill is a Law-grade Divine Skill, no living being is able to resist it, no formations, barriers, or even forbidden techniques would be able to stop it]
Reading this description, Gu Qing Shan carefully recalled his past battles.
— — -during the Battle of Shen Wu, I once used [Shadow Shift] to bring Qing Rou and Wan Er to switch places with Qi Yan.
In other words, this Divine Skill isn't limited to me alone, as long as I have something with me, I can move with them.
Then …
Gu Qing Shan fully released his inner sight.
With his Paragon realm cultivation, his inner sight's range was almost 10,000 kilometers.
"Got it!"
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
9,000 kilometers in front of the ship, a piece of wreckage was silently floating in the void of space, occasionally moving along with the wind of the void.
Gu Qing Shan's inner sight wrapped around it and abruptly activated [Shadow Shift].
Sha!
A piece of wreckage appeared where he originally stood.
9,000 kilometers away, Gu Qing Shan suddenly appeared with the ship!!!
