Chapter 335 [Terrorist Attack]
"Don't worry this big sis will help you little guy my name is Wren, as for spirit masters to fight I will help you with that as well. Ah yes they is a place called Whisper Kiss it's a romantic place but there they are some powerful spirit masters there that you can fight how many cities are you suppose to get to?"
"Ten I got into The Great Wu Empire but this is just the start," Ouranos said with a sigh and he shrugged his shoulders.
“Alright! Sounds great! Please help me with that then, Big Sister!” He sighed in his heart. He was lucky to meet such a kindhearted person He had begun calling her ‘Big Sister’ to act cute. Only in the end did he truly mean it.
“Henry, please go get some food for this little brother while I step out for a moment. He’s just so pitiful. He wasn’t even allowed to eat breakfast.”
Ouranos restrained his appetite in order to avoid scaring the conductor, but even so, he ate enough food to feed five people.
The smell of food… It’s… Ouranos lamented his weak willpower. However, the train only carried so much food on it.
“Ouranos, I’ve already made the arrangements. The security captain at Great Wu Dou City’s train station will be waiting for you. After you finish your battle, I’ll help you get a monthly train pass. With that pass, you'll be able to ride any train on the continent. And here. Take this money. You can use it to feed yourself during your journey.”
"Thank you so much!"
"Um of course!"
She’s so kind!
At that moment, the communicator in the cabin crackled to life.
“Conductor! Conductor! Please come to the fifth carriage immediately! Terrorists have hijacked it! Please hurry!”
A hijacking? The conductor looked dazed. Damn it! This is a disaster!
A few months ago, another hijacking had occurred in the western part of the continent. That incident resulted in the train exploding. Over five hundred casualties had been recorded. It was a tragedy that rocked the entire continent.
Wren went deathly pale, yet she quickly regained her wits and spoke into the mic.
“Attention all train attendants! Attention all train attendants! This is your conductor speaking. We have an emergency. Anyone with a weapon should head to the fifth carriage. Remain calm and do not alarm the passengers. Try to mitigate the disturbance.”
"Ouranos you stay here alright," Wren said.
"No way I want to go with Big Sis!" Ouranos whined and pouted.
"No way! This is dangerous you have parents who would be extremely sad if something happened to you."
"But I am a student of Zoken Grail Academy so I can stand anything I am not scared of at all!" Ouranos said as he clenched his fists to his chest and he stood tall.
"I don't care about that child.You’re still a kid. You have a bright future ahead of you. Just stay here and be safe. If it really does get too dangerous, then I’ll have the eleven rear carriages disconnect from the rest of the train. Just be good and stay put!” She pushed Tang Wulin back into the room, locked the door behind her, then ran off.
Ouranos stood there terrorist attack?
“There are six terrorists in total, Conductor. They’re heavily armed. They somehow managed to smuggle beam guns onto the train. Four of them are armed with beam assault rifles and one is armed with a soul cannon. They’ve already planted soul bombs all over the carriage. It could blow up at any moment. We have ten staff members in position and engaged in a standoff with the terrorists. But they’re better armed than we are.”
Wren let out a sigh and she held on her necklace that her husband gave her and she stared at her daughter photo of the three of them as a family.
"Mummy might not come back," Wren mattered.
“Yes, we’ve already sent a message. Conductor, you…”
“Shut it. Just carry out my orders.”
Wren looked forward, facing the direction of the fifth carriage. Once the eleven rear carriages were separated from the rest of the train, there would be no path of retreat. She would share the fate of the remaining passengers and staff. They would either live or die.
Yet this was all she could do. She had made her decision and now it was time to follow through. She had to minimize losses. At the very least, the terrorists wouldn’t be able to destroy the entire train.
The situation in the carriages beyond the fifth one was unclear. All attempts to communicate with them resulted in radio silence. The terrorists had already blocked them off. She had to handle them personally.
“What’s the situation?
"It's not good, they took the passengers hostages."
"Damn it why must this be today!"
“Please don’t act impulsively! We can negotiate. Do you have any demands? I'll do my best to fulfill your them, but please don’t harm the hostages!”
Wren stepped forward and she was slow and calm. The fact these people were able to high jack the train smug weapons within this empire means they have someone backing them up.
"Are you the person in charge?" A black hood man asked in a cold manner its aura was full of nothing but death.
"Our demands are very simple. Tell the Federal government to safely release the people they arrested twenty days ago. If they do that, I’ll release these hostages. I know you can cut off the carriages in the rear, but let me warn you: the first five carriages have already been rigged with bombs. I’m sure you know how many passengers are here. You don’t have much time. The bombs are set to detonate in thirty minutes. If you can’t fulfill our demands in thirty minutes… hehe. Looks like you’ll be buried along with everyone else.”
The conductor’s heart thumped. Twenty days ago? Who did the Federal government arrest twenty days ago? There wasn’t any news about that. These demands confused her, but she was certain these terrorists wouldn’t make impossible demands.
