Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 158 Whatever It Takes

"Do you think that you can get off lightly from this?" Alex said as he stared at Professor Frances, who was now slightly backing away from Alex.

"Hmph, try coming here then." Professor Frances taunted as she continued backing away from Alex. "Just approach me, and let’s see if you can handle the consequences of that."

There is no doubt to Alex already. Professor Frances is trying to escape, along with Lauren and Andrew Collins

Right now, Alex was sure that whatever Professor Frances discovered about the Legacy, both Lauren and Andrew Collins were definitely needed to access this Legacy!

That could be the only reason that Professor Frances wanted to take away the two of them now!

This is definitely not good for Alex.

If he lets Professor Frances get away now, there is a high chance that she can get the Legacy before the can do so.

Even if Alina finishes scouring Nomad’s mind, by the time the finishes, Professor Frances could have already be away.

"What do we do?" Alex heard Queen Mother asking him with a panicked expression on her face.

There’s no doubt that Queen Mother was extremely pissed right now, especially with Professor Frances taking Lauren hostage.

If it were not for the chemical that Professor Frances injected inside Lauren, Queen Mother could have torn the Professor into many pieces already.

"Let me think..." Alex replied as he tried to simulate every possible things that he can do.

"..." But even with what he was doing, Alex found himself trapped against Professor Frances’ schemes.

"Hey, when will our get-away vehicle arrive? I am tired of waiting here!" The Professor suddenly shouted out towards her Companions, as she looked impatient already. "Even if we have the advantage against the Travelers, we cannot just dilly-dally here! We should leave now!"

"Professor, it will arrive any moment now." The whip-holding Companion said as she followed the Professor on backing out. "We just have to wait here a little, which won’t hurt in my opinion."

The Professor seemed to want to say something else but before she could do so, he heard Alina’s shout of immense surprise.

"What?" Alina’s eyes were extremely wide, with her mouth flapping like a fish as she let go of Nomad’s head. "This... this is..."

"You... you already found what we were looking for?" Alex asked Alina hopefully as he saw her immensely surprised reaction. "I thought it will take you some minutes..."

"That is what I thought so too, Eldritch." Alina replied as she started glaring at Professor Frances. "But luckily for me, I found the info that we are looking for just at the surface of his mind. It was quite easy for me to... fish it."

"..."

Even though Alina tried to sound happy, Alex could notice that Alina seemed to be highly affected by what she discovered.

From the looks of it, the Truth about the Legacy of Tartaros was something that not even Alina can handle well.

"Hahaha! Isn’t it surprising? Even I was also surprised when I discovered it!" Professor Frances said as she gave a taunting smile to Alina. "Now, you understand everything, right?"

"..." Alina did not give Professor Frances any reply, but the blazing look in her eyes was enough to tell Alex that the Professor’s words hit the right spot.

"Khora, tell me the Truth about the Legacy, right now." Alex said with his eyes still focused on Professor Frances. "I could find a way to defeat the Professor now if you tell me the Truth!"

"I... am not sure if that will work Eldritch." Alina replied as she gave Alex a melancholic smile. "Even if I tell you the truth, I doubt you can use it to defeat this mad scientist."

"Hahaha! That is right!" The Professor replied as the sounds of a jet approached their location. "You can know everything about the Legacy now, but that still won’t help you against me!"

At the moment that Professor Frances finished talking, the approaching jet had already shown itself to Alex.

The jet was small enough to land in front of Mafioso’s Mansion, and it seemed large enough to accommodate Professor Frances and her Companions.

Alex and Alina could only stare at the gloating Professor as she slowly approached the jet.

"I guess this is goodbye for now." The Professor said as the jet began to open its door. Now, the Professor only needed some few more steps before she can enter the jet. "It’s been fun staying with you all..."

While he was watching what the Professor was about to do, Alex clenched his fists as he realized that he should make a move right at this moment.

"Sigh, it seems like I have to use my hidden ace." Alex thought to himself as he realized that right now, he had to use that if he wanted to prevent Professor Frances from escaping. "But if I use my hidden ace, there could be some heavy consequences, and I am not sure if I can handle it..."

"Ugh, why are you thinking like that? It’s our lives that are at stake here, so I have to do anything that I can to save our team, whatever it takes!" Alex slapped his cheeks as he decided to let loose.

Even if he suffers from the consequences later, doing it will be better than just waiting for themselves to die.

"...."

Alex then closed his eyes as he attempted to start the activation of his hidden ace.

But before even Alex could start on activating his hidden ace, a powerful voice suddenly boomed above them, and this voice carried a message that effectively stopped Alex and Professor Frances from their tracks.

[Don’t you all try to make a move... If you do so, your ends will not be pretty...]

After he heard these words, Alex’s eyes widened as he saw something massive descending from the sky.

"What the hell..." That was all that Alex could say as he saw the massive object just stopping right above Mafioso’s Mansion.

The object was around a kilometer long, and 500 meters wide. Its body seemed to be made up of high-quality metal, and it was covered with all kinds of dangerous and lethal weaponry.

It was, in all views, a floating fortress!

No, not a fortress. It is, in Alex’s knowledge and opinion, a massive space station outfitted with high-caliber weapons!

"It’s the ’Conqueror’! Oh f**k!" That was what Alex realized as he saw the space station only hovering above them. "Oh f**k, the base of the Pantheon is actually here. If this base is here, then that means..."

Alex’s suspicions were confirmed as one of the doors of the Conqueror swung open.

Out of that open door came out 6 figures, with each of them carrying a powerful presence rivalling that of Nomad before.

"S**t, s**t, s**t!" Alex cursed inwardly as he looked at the new arrivals.

Foresight. Tetra. Myth. Plague. Machi. Miden.

All 6 of them, who looked like they were ready for battle, were looking at Alex and Professor Frances with burning looks in their eyes.

It does not take an intelligent person to realize where their current scenario will go.

"Oh god, is the boss battle about to start now? Why so fast?"
