Chapter 754: Sound Wave Weapon (3)
I will be online on the alchemist Discord channel at 8th Nov 2020, 1am GMT 8+ (or 1pm -7th Nov- New York Time I think?) to celebrate the end of The Silly Alchemist. Come say hi! I love talking to you guys.
Finale chapter will be released at 12 am, which is one hour before the discord hangout session. See ya!
And because of that, the Ye family could not do anything to Zhao Yarou because she had already released everyone else with no strings attached. She did not harm them in any way.
Right now, everyone was most worried about Zhao Yarouâs secret weapon. A few people talked about how they could not prevent the attack from this weapon. These were Di Earthly Level masters. If they had been defeated, then ordinary people would fare worse.
They even said that the headmaster and the rest of the Tian Level masters had also been knocked out by this weapon.
That was the scariest part!
That was also why none of the families had retaliated. Zhao Yarou still had hostages, plus there was the terrifying power of her weapon.
âYe Lang, do you know what weapon that is?â asked Ye Yi. The best person to ask was Ye Lang. If he didnât know, then no one knew.
âI think it should be a kind of alchemy weapon that uses sound waves. The Tiangongyue tribe invented a type of alchemy cannon that weaponised sound waves. However, I believed they used a more portable version of it, like a bomb. That cannon should not have been powerful enough to destroy the entire school!â said Ye Lang. These were only guesses, he wasnât sure.
However, his guess was not far from the truth.
âSound waves?â No one understood. The weaponisation of sound waves was a rare thing on the mainland. Other than some alchemists, other people completely hadnât heard of it.
âIf that is the case, then we have to admit that Zhao Yarouâs subordinates are very impressive to create such a weapon in such a short time span.â Ye Lang frowned. âLooks like I seriously underestimated Zhao YarouâŠâ
âWhy is she still so hung up on you? Sheâs very peculiar.â Long Anqi furrowed her brows. She did not understand why Zhao Yarou kept targeting Ye Lang.
âShe is very peculiar, a regular person would not be able to understand it,â said Ye Lang with a grin. He seemed to be hiding something from everyone.
But no one noticed because they were thinking about how Ye Lang could defeat Zhao Yarou.
âYeah, sheâs not a normal person at all. But doesnât that mean sheâs more dangerous? She wants you go alone⊠What if she hurts you?â Long Anqi said worriedly.
She was in a very difficult situation. While Long Anqi was worried about Ye Lang getting hurt if he went, she was equally worried about Ye Hui and Second Sister getting hurt if he didnât.
If her two children werenât with Zhao Yarou, she would never let Ye Lang go.
âIâll be fine, I donât think sheâll kill me. At most, sheâll lock me up for the rest of my life. Iâll have opportunities to escape!â shrugged Ye Lang.
âHow are you so sure that she wonât kill you?â Long Anqi frowned. You said she was peculiar, then how would you know if she wouldnât kill you?
âJust a feeling!â shrugged Ye Lang.
ââŠâ No one could accept this as an answer.
Long Anqi was stunned. âJust from a feeling? And what if youâre wrong?â
Ye Lang waved her off with a chuckle. âDonât worry, my gut is never wrong! Donât you all call me the son of Lady Luck? The old lady wonât make me die.â
ââŠâ
Usually, Long Anqi would scold him for jinxing it with a laugh but this time, she was not in the mood to laugh.
âAlso, if I donât go, Eldest Brother and Second Sister will definitely be harmed. And if I do, theyâll be alright. As for myself, weâll have to see. In the end, we still make a profit â one in exchange for two,â said Ye Lang.
ââŠâ
Everyone understood the situation, they just did not want to say it out loud. They had been forced into the corner. There must be a sacrifice. If it wasnât Ye Lang, it would be Ye Hui and Second Sister.
And if Ye Lang went, there could be a chance. If he didnât, they wouldnât stand a chance. That was why they wanted to listen to his opinion.
Now, it was obvious that he was definitely going to go. He was willing to sacrifice himself for both of them. And from his demeanour, he seemed quite confident. It shouldnât be a problem.
The only thing they could do now was to trust him. Trust that he could perform a miracle, trust that Lady Luck would still smile over Ye Lang.
But everyone still wondered why he seemed so confidentâŠ
âWhy are you so sure Zhao Yarou would let your siblings go once you arrive?â asked Long Anqi, looking at him in confusion.
âBecause I believe she wouldnât make empty promises,â said Ye lang.
âWhy would you believe that? Sheâs mad! Have you forgotten that she killed her father and his whole family?â said Long Anqi immediately, not understanding his explanation.
Ye Lang looked out into the sky, then at the empty horizon. After a pause, he said mildly, âSheâs mad, sheâs psychotic but that doesnât mean she doesnât keep her words! Based on her past actions, she hasnât broken any.â
âI hope so then!â Long Anqi and the rest did not refute because it was true that she had not broken any promises in the past.
âAlright, tell me. Where does she want me to go? Any time limit?â Ye Lang did not care what they thought, he just needed the details.
âThe archaeological ruins. She says youâll know where it is. Not sure why she chose that place,â said Ye Chengtian.
âItâs all the same. Or perhaps she needs help with the relics in the ruins,â shrugged Ye Lang.
âI think so too. She wants your alchemy knowledge! Once she gets you, sheâll be able to defeat all her enemies! You must cheat your way out wherever you can, donât actually do what she says!â Ye Chengtian advised solemnly, putting his hand on Ye Langâs shoulder.
Everyone knew that if Ye Lang went to help Zhao Yarou with her alchemy technologies, the entire world would be in her hands.
