BXBX NOVEL Chapter 428 I Lost My Appetite
If William stopped them and refused to let them in, then he\'d place a great question mark on him. And if he let them in, they\'d find that statue one way or another.
"I have to think of a way to hide it…" William entered his place while letting Thomas carry the food inside, "but first I have to see where that statue is, and how big exactly it is."
"Master, are we going to start working or rest?" Thomas was now more curious and puzzled about what was in his master\'s mind.
"We will do it this way," William took in a deep breath before adding, "you keep drawing the entire layout of this place. As for me, I\'ll take a nap."
"A nap?!!!" Thomas felt his master was joking. But when William laid himself on the ground, even closed his eyes, he knew his master wasn\'t joking at all.
"What about food?" Thomas looked at the food he brought here, "won\'t you eat?"
"You can have these," William said without even opening his eyes, "I lost my appetite since visiting that damn place."
Thomas sighed when he heard this. His earlier guess got confirmed, "it seemed my master got into a bloody fight against Mark. Or else, such a glutinous master won\'t even refuse to eat!"
William wasn\'t in the mind of eating right now. He kept thinking about ways, unique sealing and isolation arrays that he could use with this world\'s materials.
He didn\'t intend to deliver that fox statue over, planned to get all the benefits only for himself. And to do so, he had to first find the statue, then look for a way to hide it well.
He got lots of sealing and isolation arrays, arrays that could conceal anything off anyone. But if a large group of dark gold spirit masters came here, or many groups of them, and put the support of the scary Transformers in one\'s mind, then his confidence wasn\'t that solid.
He left Thomas to do his task as this was the most important thing to do right now. He wanted a general map of this place, so he could identify where this statue was. And he also had to find the right place to hide that statue over, even to the extent of leaving part of the traps intact to secure this statue later on.
"Screw that old fox! He only gave me trouble and worries…" William inwardly cursed, while feeling more pissed at the ancient owner of this place, "he didn\'t even show me any professional courtesy! Aren\'t we both foxes? Aren\'t we considered family or what?"
"Speaking of which, and if he was a Transformer, that means…" he suddenly recalled something he experienced before and didn\'t thoroughly understand at that time.
The Nightmare monster was very adamant at getting him. That dude kept speaking about how cheap William was, by selecting to shift to be a human and take over this body.
"Hmm… So, there might be mutants here as well?" William didn\'t know if these crazier folks would be found in this world or not. But at least he could tell that the fox who turned into a Transformer and owned this place had deep relations with that Nightmare monster.
"There is also one thing that doesn\'t add up… The old tales speaking about the owner of this place spoke about a human, not a statue…"
The more William thought about this, the more headache he got. He thought about this and got two different explanations for such a mess.
Either that old fox monster wasn\'t part of the Transformers, and was one of a much scarier group, the mutants. Or it might have been one of the Transformers, and the human dude everyone knew was just a lackey of this Transformer.
He leant towards the second idea. He already got enough headache with the presence of Transformers. If Mutants were also here, then he got to kiss all dreams about saving anyone in this world a big goodbye kiss.
Even running away with his life intact was going to be seriously threatened as well!
Mutants were much scarier and more formidable than Transformers. They couldn\'t transform into humans but could take over any human spirit on certain conditions. It was like obsessing one\'s body, controlling this body and dealing with it as a reservoir.
They were like Transformers, but they could move around and act like normal humans. They were much harder to deal with, and their main specialty lay in assassinating top shots in the spirit master world.
"But it seems not all the Transformers here are on the same line," William thought about the fox monster that lived in this place before. From the words of the statues, he got that they held deep grudge and hatred against that dude.
If that dude was one of them, then why in the first place did he die? Only Transformers were able to kill other Transformers, in addition to dark gold grade spirit masters and monsters.
Monsters were on the same page as Transformers, and so only dark gold spirit masters remained as the prime suspect. And yet William didn\'t even believe anyone here was well informed enough about the truth of these statues and their methods, or else these statues wouldn\'t have simply invited him to their lair in such carefree way.
So there was only one answer to all this, the owner of this place wasn\'t on the same line as these Transformers. And that meant he was on the side of humans, at least not an enemy.
When William thought back about the stories he heard of the ancient owner of this place, he couldn\'t help but link the dots here and see the entire picture.
