Chapter 1069 - The Defense System Detected An Enemy Invasion!

Exactly like the Kayson Bookshop owner said, these eight books did mention Lantisde.

Taking away the three novels which should have just made up the name, the other five books all mentioned Lantisde.

Deducing from the trivial clues, Lantisde had once been a human kingdom on the Norland Continent, but it had always kept a low profile.

However, about 1000 years ago, everything about Lantisde disappeared as if it was erased from the Norland Continent in an instant. Everything, including all the records about it, disappeared mysteriously.

All the clues pointed in one direction: Lantisde was already lost, and nobody knew where it was.

Gina said she came from Lantisde, and the scenes she drew look like the bottom of the sea. Seems like Lantisde had sunk then, and was sealed at the bottom of the sea. However, they had also obtained the ability to live underwater from this…

This plot sounds rather familiar?

Mag rubbed his chin with a thoughtful look on his face.

Nobody knew where Lantisde went, but Mag found an approximate location of Lantisde before its disappearance.

The Boundless Sea. Isn’t that close to the territory of the demon tribe? Mag got up to look at the map of Norland Continent hanging on the wall of his study, and drew a circle with a pencil on top of the Boundless Sea.

It is quite a distance away. I could bring Gina there directly to confirm the location if not for that, but looking at the situation now, we can only consider that on the rest day two days later. Mag turned around and went downstairs.

He finally had some idea about Gina’s origins, but as for how to bring her there, it gave Mag a headache.

Ah Zi was naturally the fastest, but he wasn’t supposed to be exposed.

Mag told everyone this piece of information during dinner that night.

Amy’s eyes lit up in delight as she said, “Wow, then can we help Big Sister Gina go back home? This is so cool!”

“The Boundless Sea is so far away. How far do we need to walk in order to get there?” Yabemiya said worriedly.

Gina couldn’t understand their conversation, so she simply sat there and looked at everyone quietly.

Elizabeth glanced at Gina. “If necessary, I can bring all of you there.”

“That’s fantastic.” Mag’s eyes lit up. He had forgotten that Elizabeth was an 8th-tier Frost Dragon. Even though Ah Zi was slightly better than her, she was indeed fast enough.

“Big Sister Elizabeth, can I come along, please?” Amy raised her little hand and looked at Elizabeth expectantly.

“Yes.” Elizabeth gave a slight nod.

“I…” Miya looked at Elizabeth with some expectation too.

“Whoever is interested to go, you can come along with us,” Elizabeth said calmly.

“Hurray! I can finally get out of the city!” Miya said excitedly. She had never left Chaos City before in her life.

“A group excursion seems like a rather good idea. Let’s take it as a team building activity for our restaurant. It is our day off two days later, let’s depart on that day.”

“Okay, okay.” Amy nodded ecstatically.

Mag told Gina about the information that he might have found Lantisde.

Gina stared at the circle on the map in a daze before jumping up in excitement to give Mag a big hug.

“It’s just a possibility. I still cannot confirm that Lantisde is really under that sea.” Mag disentangled Gina’s legs from his waist and prepared her mentally.

…

After the dinner service was over, the ladies all went back, and Gina returned upstairs to her tank too.

Mag looked at Anna, who was gazing out of the door melancholically. He walked in front of her and crouched down, placing a hand gently on her head. “Don’t worry, he will be back.”

“Yes.” Anna looked at Mag’s warm smile and felt her heart warm up.

“Big Sister Anna, if you are feeling unhappy, come and squeeze Ugly Duckling’s chubby face. It’s very comfortable to squeeze.” Amy carried Ugly Duckling over. Her two little hands were kneading Ugly Duckling’s face into squares and circles repeatedly.

“Haha~”

Anna looked at the despairing Ugly Duckling and released a peal of melodious laughter. She joined in to “torture” Ugly Duckling.

“Alright. Let’s go up to sleep,” Mag said to the little ones having a good time. He turned off the lights and brought them upstairs.

The fatty poked his head out as he watched the restaurant shrouded in darkness, and whispered, “It’s already closed for business, Big Brother. Do we begin now?”

“Let’s not rush. Wait a while longer. We came to steal today, so we’d better keep a low profile and not get discovered.” Colby stood on a branch and shook his head.

“Boss is so wise,” the thin man praised as he poked his head out of the bush.

Colby’s expression began to get smug as he smilingly said, “After we get our hands on that amazing machine, we’ll leave Chaos City for Rodu. I heard the people there are richer and they love to eat. We’ll establish ourselves there!”

Hope appeared on the faces of the fat guy and the thin guy.

The three of them squatted there for quite a while. The restaurant was totally dark and silent. The boss seemed to have fallen asleep.

“Let’s move!” Colby jumped down from the tree and sneaked toward Mamy Restaurant. The fat guy and thin guy followed behind him closely.

Colby got to the door and pasted his ear against it to listen in.

Bam!

A knock sounded right next to his ear and gave him such a shock that he sat on the ground. Colby looked at the fat guy who was standing in front of the door with a big hammer. He got up and gave him a kick in his butt as he angrily said, “Damn fatty, what are you doing!”

“I am trying to open this door for you, Boss…” the fat guy said innocently.

“Scram, you idiot!” Colby kicked the fat guy aside. He gazed around and heaved a sigh of relief after making sure that nobody was around. He gravely warned, “Idiot, we came to steal. You would have crushed the door if you had smashed the hammer down. Can it still be considered as stealing? It will be a robbery! We thieves don’t do such a thing.”

“Yes, yes, yes. Boss is right.” The fat guy nodded profusely, but as he looked at the door which didn’t even have a scratch on it, he couldn’t help but mumble, “Why isn’t there any damage to the door?”

“It’s good that it isn’t damaged. Otherwise, you would have to compensate for a door.” Colby waved to the thin guy. “Skinny, you get this door open.”

“Alrighty. This is my area of expertise.”

Skinny got a metal wire out from his head[1], and began poking around the keyhole haphazardly.

“Ding!”

“The defense system detected an enemy invasion!”

Mag, who had just finished blowing dry the two little ones’ hair, saw the surveillance video that appeared in his head. An amused smile appeared on his face.

“Father, what story are you going to tell us tonight?” Amy, who had just changed into her little bear pyjamas and was wearing her hair loose, asked Mag curiously.

“Do you girls want to listen to a bedtime story or play around with a few dumb thieves before you sleep?” Mag asked smilingly.
