Chapter 428 - A Desperate Situation
Under the ocean, two figures appeared.
An intricate s.p.a.ce armor covered them, bouncing off both the pressure and water under the ocean.
Yet, Blue Flash"s eyes were filled with worry. Her grip on Enigma hadn"t loosened. In fact, she carefully wrapped her arm around Enigma and let her head rest on her shoulder.
Enigma pretended that she wasn"t heavily injured in front of Xia and Rudolf. But in reality, she was in a dire condition.
Blue Flash looked at Enigma and hurriedly whispered. "E-Enigma, Enigma!"
"H-Huh?" Enigma raised her head weakly.
A huge cut ran through Enigma"s black dress, from her left leg right up to her right shoulder.
Blue Flash could feel the blood in Enigma"s body threatening to spill out of this huge and deadly cut. So, she was forcibly using her s.p.a.ce power to keep it in.
Still, physical injury was the least of worries. The lightning mana wreaking havoc in her body needed at least an hour of uninterrupted treatment.
In fact, the fact that she survived after taking a peak level 9 attack nearly head-on was nothing short of a miracle.
Blue Flash knew this. And that"s why…
"Enigma, get yourself together! We"ll escape soon."
"T-They put a tracker on me," Enigma muttered, each word causing blood to stain her face mask.
The tri-color eyes that were always bright were now dim. Yet, the resolution in them hadn"t wavered.
"Escape by yourself. And take care o—"
"No! I"m not leaving you behind." Blue Flash said and her s.p.a.ce power vibrated.
The next moment, she and Enigma were a thousand miles away, right in the middle of a desert.
Blue Flash didn"t feel safe. On the contrary, she felt like someone was after them.
As a high awakener, she believed her instincts.
So, without any hesitation, she teleported them a few thousand miles away again.
A moment after she disappeared, lightning descended from the sky and two people appeared.
Xia and Rudolf immediately felt the aura in the surroundings.
"Almost there!" Xia gritted her teeth and checked the tracker.
During the last moment she attacked Enigma, she also sent this tracker to her.
Usually, it was obvious that Enigma would"ve felt the tracker and blocked it off. But this one wasn"t dangerous to her life, so her instincts remained largely calm.
And the tracker itself was stealthy.
So, it successfully entrenched itself in Enigma and sent them her location every second.
"Zon forest!" Xia said after another check and the duo"s figures disappeared in the next moment.
They crossed hundreds of miles and reached an evergreen forest. Like all other previous areas, this too was deserted. And it too exuded two auras.
"Argh! Speed up!" Xia growled and at their full speed, they followed the tracker.
In a few minutes, Blue Flash and Enigma had gone around the earth at least dozen times.
As she was a s.p.a.ce awakener, Blue Flash had an edge. That said, another primary reason was that the tracker was still adjusting itself. Soon, it wouldn"t be lagging anymore.
"Enigma, can you remove the tracker?" Blue Flash asked hopefully.
She shook her head. "If I try, it"ll kill me."
"…heavens." Blue Flash sighed in despair. The feeling in the back of her mind intensified.
She could feel it.
They were after them. Hunting them.
She must escape with Enigma.
But how?
Even though she"s also level 9, Blue Flash was weaker than them. If she was anything other than a s.p.a.ce awakener, they"d have already been caught.
But even then, all her actions only meant delay.
Blue Flash held Enigma and kept teleporting while trying to think of a countermeasure.
She looked at Enigma who was on the verge of losing consciousness and her heart sank.
The situation was too desperate.
There were some people she could contact, but could they be trusted?
She didn"t know. But she didn"t dare to bet.
If they tried to kill Enigma, she"d be totally helpless.
"Is there no way…?" As she teleported them to the arctic, Blue Flash muttered in despair.
"Wait! Him!"
She recalled a person and opened Enigma"s comm. Without hesitation, she dialed up.
As she finished the third teleportation in the fifth second, the call was picked up.
"Enigma, do you need any help…what happened to her?" Dreamer"s worried voice came from the hologram.
Blue Flash yelled. "She"s on the verge of fainting. And we"re being chased. Help us out!"
Dreamer"s eyes glanced at Enigma"s dull eyes for a moment and he sucked in a cold breath.
Then he nodded. "I"ll be there soon."
"Wait, our comms are likely ratted out and tracked!" Blue Flash said, but he already hung up the call.
"f.u.c.k!" Blue Flash cursed and teleported Enigma again.
This time, not even half a second pa.s.sed and the hunters appeared in the arctic.
"Almost there. Let"s go."
Buzzz!
With a flash of golden lightning, they disappeared again.
With each teleportation, they were actually closer and closer to catching Enigma.
The tracker also seemed to have finished adjusting, the reports now were more precise than ever.

After the Valos fiasco, Varian was resting at his home. Right during Blue Flash"s call from Enigma"s comm, the ghost ship took off.
"Master, if there are traitors around Enigma, they would"ve already given her comm"s information to army or Xander family. This conversation might also be tracked." Boo said in a worried voice.
"Just hack them." Varian declared. "Also, speed up!"
"Master, they"re both very stronger than you right now. If they get into ghost ship and turn against you..." Boo didn"t continue, but Varian understood what it meant.
Varian shook his head. "Let"s decide after the situation. Now, f.u.c.k up those prying b.a.s.t.a.r.ds."
"Yes!"
*** *** ***
The military technocrats monitoring Enigma"s comm suddenly frowned.
Someone hacked into their account and tampered with their servers. Now, they could no longer position her location.
"f.u.c.k!"
Right then, Blue Flash and Enigma appeared on a deserted mountain.
Before she could teleport, the s.p.a.ce around her solidified and a lightning bolt came from the distance, aiming right at Enigma.
"Stop!"
Blue Flash yelled and stood in front of Enigma, pouring everything in her to create a huge s.p.a.ce shield.
Boom!
Kacha!
But after all, the strength gap was impossible to bridge.
"Kahhh!" Blue Flash half knelt on the ground as she coughed out blood. In fact, blood was flowing from all over her body as lightning arcs appeared on her from time to time.
Enigma simply collapsed on Blue Flash.
"Hahahaha!" With roaring laughter, Xia appeared a few hundred meters away.
She looked at the nearly unconscious Enigma and the heavily injured Blue Flash with a sneer.
"This is where it ends. Humans will never allow another abyssals. Enigma, you"ve outlived your usefulness. Now, it"s time to go."
Saying so, she raised her hand and a spear condensed in her hand.
"Hey wait! Question her first." Rudolf put his arm in front of her, unsure if he was trying to protect Enigma or really trying to get information from her.
Xia narrowed her eyes and pushed Rudolf away with a lightning hand. "Questioning can go to h.e.l.l. So will our leader."
Blue Flash held Enigma and glared at Xia stubbornly. "You"ll regret it!"
"Stupid threats." Xia cursed and was about to release her attack.
Right then, she had an ominous premonition and looked up.
A blue sphere and huge metal sc.r.a.ps appeared a few hundred meters above the ground.
The sphere touched the metal and in the next instant, a blinding light flashed, followed by a huge explosion.
Xia put on a lightning shield and was about to search for the culprit when she felt a presence in her lightning sense.
"Stop!"
She raised her hand and a lightning whip lashed at this invisible figure.
It nimbly avoided the attack and stopped between her and Enigma.
"Rudolf!" Xia yelled and snapped her fingers. A lightning spear was created behind Enigma and Blue Flash.
"Yes." Rudolf"s figure blurred and he reached the other side in an instant. But he didn"t know if he was doing it consciously, but his speed was slightly lower than normal.
Right then, a lightning spear stuck their position.
At the exact moment, he saw the "presence".
The s.p.a.ce shuttle"s doors were almost shut when the lightning spear stuck it.
BOOM!
The next moment, his fist also connected with the s.p.a.ce shuttle and sent it flying.
There wasn"t even a dent on it and using the momentum from his punch, the s.p.a.ce shuttle flew into the sky and escaped.
"Dreamer!"
