Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 224: Chapter 223: Narrow Escape from Death (Seventh Update)

As the saying goes, what the speaker doesn’t mean, the listener perceives.

The conversation coming from afar instantly brightened the eyes of Lin You and Ji Yunshuang.

Super Long-distance Teleportation Array!

And it’s even connected to the front-line battlefield!

If they could ride it, wouldn’t they be able to teleport directly to the front-line battlefield?

Lin You and Ji Yunshuang exchanged a glance, both seeing the excitement in each other’s eyes.

Once those passersby were far enough away, Lin You couldn’t help saying: “The Super Long-distance Teleportation Array, shouldn’t people from other Realms like us be able to use it too?”

“We should be able to.” Ji Yunshuang nodded, “With teleportation arrays like this, as long as there’s energy supplied, anything can be teleported, it’s just a matter of energy consumption, unrelated to anything else.”

“That’s good.” Lin You took a deep breath, “Since that’s the case, we’ll decide on it, we’ll use that teleportation array to go back!”

“Use that one?” Ji Yunshuang asked in surprise, “But how can we conceal ourselves from those Lords of the Primordial Evil Realm and use the teleportation array without their knowledge?”

After all, it’s currently the height of the war between the two Realms.

There must be many High-tier Lords from the Primordial Evil Realm gathered around the teleportation array, it’s almost impossible to approach the teleportation array under their noses.

Not being surrounded and killed would already be decent.

“Don’t worry, I have a way.”

Lin You smiled mysteriously, selling a pass.

“Anyway, let’s go to the teleportation array and see the situation first. If possible, my plan should work.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Ji Yunshuang didn’t say much else.

Having been with Lin You for so long, he knew Lin You had a knack for cunning plans.

And with their current situation, the teleportation array was their only chance to escape danger alive.

So they didn’t think much more about it.

After some discussion, the two set off again, bypassing nearby cities and hurriedly heading towards the direction of the Duke’s Capital.

…

And so.

The two continued to gather information as they traveled.

Finally, by noon on the third day, they arrived near Chaos City, the Royal Capital of the Eight Gates Duchy.

“Is this Chaos City?”

Ji Yunshuang hid behind a large boulder, observing through a gap the enormous city that stretched out for almost a hundred kilometers, his face grave.

“It shouldn’t be wrong, you see those Lords coming and going, and the light pillar inside the city, it should be the teleportation array.”

Lin You hid nearby, also observing the situation in the distance.

However, he was paying more attention to the Lords coming and going.

Perhaps due to the war, many Lords were pouring in from all directions, making the outside of the Royal Capital especially lively.

And on the city gates and walls, there were teams of cultivators patrolling back and forth, seemingly extremely vigilant.

“With so many guards and Lords, it might be hard to sneak in, are you sure your method will work?” Ji Yunshuang asked worriedly.

After all, both of them were only at Tier Seven, such a reckless plan to sneak into the city, if discovered, they wouldn’t be able to escape even with wings.

He even felt a bit of regret.

If he had known it would be like this, he would have kept some stealth items in his personal space, so they wouldn’t be so constrained now.

As he was thinking, he suddenly realized Lin You’s aura beside him had vanished, transformed into a completely unfamiliar one.

Turning his head, he saw Lin You still standing in the same place, which startled him.

“How… how did you change your aura?”

“Oh, it’s a skill of one of my species; it forces my aura to become friendly to the Primordial Evil Realm, so they shouldn’t notice us.”

Saying this, Lin You waved his arm, enveloping Ji Yunshuang with Power of Nature, also hiding her Primordial Realm aura.

This skill was one Lin You had grasped after the Deceitful Willow advanced to Tier Seven.

Due to the Divine Fragment, Lin You also gained this ability.

Moreover, it was his first attempt and unexpectedly successful.

Seeing the sun overhead slowly setting, he said, “Let’s go, we should be able to deceive Tier Six and Seven Lords and cultivators with this ability, just make sure not to be discovered by Lords above Tier Eight.”

“Oh, okay.”

Ji Yunshuang nodded blankly, finally realizing, feeling surprised at the change in her own aura.

Such a magical power, she had only seen it on her father and other Kings, could Lin You have absorbed a Divine Format too?

How could that be!

He was only Tier Seven!

However, Lin You gave her no time to think, as he had already left, taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, secretly blending into the official path.

Ji Yunshuang didn’t dare delay, quickly following his steps, coming outside together.

Then the two disguised themselves as wandering cultivators, slowly approaching the city gate.

“Lin You, are you sure this method will work?”

Ji Yunshuang spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear.

Especially seeing the city gate guards getting closer, she grew even more nervous.

“Relax, those guarding the gates are at most Tier Seven, they can’t see through our disguise.”

Lin You turned his hand, reinforcing the disguise on them.

Gradually, they avoided the High-tier Lords, followed the crowd outside the city, and came to the guards.

Then under the sharp scrutiny of those guards, they slowly passed through the city gate.

Indeed, when the guards scanned them with their eyes, even Lin You couldn’t help his heart racing.

But to avoid exposure, he had to hold his breath, trying to act naturally to keep the guards from noticing anything amiss.

Luckily.

The whole process did not last long.

Perhaps due to the large number of people, the guards merely glanced at them and let them pass, following the crowd into the city.

“We did it!”

The two exchanged a glance, their excitement plainly visible.

Not daring to linger, after a quick look at the bustling street ahead, they pretended to casually slip into a quieter side street, choosing paths with fewer people.

Guided by the pillar of transport light, they saved the effort of asking for directions, hurrying towards the city center.

On the way, they encountered several Tier Eight and Nine Lords and Cultivators, forcing them to change routes repeatedly.

Not until well past noon did the two finally reach the Royal Capital Center, near a heavily guarded square.

“Lin You, look! It’s the Teleportation Array!”

Ji Yunshuang immediately spotted the giant Teleportation Array emitting white light on the square and couldn’t help but exclaim softly.

Lin You was equally thrilled, nodding with trembling eyes.

But immediately,

he was astounded by the security forces around the square.

Just on the outskirts of the square, there were several Tier Eight teams patrolling back and forth.

Let alone surrounding the Teleportation Array, which was guarded by an unbroken line of Primordial Evil Realm Lords, each stepping into the array one after another.

“This might be tricky…”

Lin You said, frowning.

“Indeed, if we go straight ahead, we’ll definitely be spotted immediately.”

Ji Yunshuang also realized this, the excitement on her face gradually fading.

It had been difficult to get this far.

If they didn’t proceed with the teleportation quickly, unforeseen changes might occur.

Moreover, being surrounded by High-tier Lords was increasingly dangerous the longer they stayed. They needed to act quickly before someone discovered them.

“Looks like we have no choice but to go for it.”

Lin You said quietly, his expression turning resolute.

“Are you planning… to charge straight through?”

“Yes, it’s the only option,” Lin You nodded seriously, “As long as we can teleport to the border battlefield and link up with the territory, we’ll have a chance to escape, which is better than waiting here to die.”

“True, if we reach the battlefield, we should be able to sense the territory.”

Ji Yunshuang agreed with Lin You’s plan, feeling nervous at the same time.

This was probably the most reckless thing she had ever done.

But recalling her previous bold ambitions, she couldn’t help but become serious again.

If she couldn’t even overcome such a challenge, how could she possibly become an Empress?

“Are you ready? If you are, let’s move.”

Lin You said again.

“Yes, let’s start.”

Ji Yunshuang composed herself, taking a deep breath.

“Go!”

Saying this, Lin You took the lead, leaving the alley and slowly heading toward the square.

Soon, they passed through the guard-posted entrance, following several Tier Seven Lords into the square, discreetly observing the movements of others around them.

As the distance to the Teleportation Array dwindled, they became increasingly tense, almost able to hear their own racing heartbeats.

“You two, wait a moment!”

Unexpectedly,

just halfway into the square, a voice suddenly called out from a distance.

A Tier Eight Lord led a team, slowly approaching them.

Both Lin You and Ji Yunshuang felt a tightening inside.

Because they could distinctly sense that the Lord’s gaze was fixed on them.

Moreover, there was a hint of sharpness in that gaze, clearly perceiving the anomaly about them.

Indeed, it was too difficult for Tier Seven abilities to fool the eyes of a Tier Eight Lord.

However, the two didn’t stop as ordered but pretended not to hear and continued forward, quickening their pace slightly.

“Did you not hear my command? Stop right now!”

The Tier Eight Lord’s expression darkened, finally confirming the suspicion in his heart, also drawing the attention of others around them.

“Charge!”

Without any hesitation, Lin You shouted and, together with Ji Yunshuang, dashed toward the Teleportation Array in the square’s center.

Upon seeing this, the Tier Eight Lord roared in outrage: “Stop them quickly! They’re spies from another Realm!”

“What!? Spies from another Realm?”

“They have some nerve! Dare to infiltrate the Royal Capital!”

“Seize them quickly!”

The Lords exclaimed repeatedly, issuing orders to their respective species to encircle Lin You and Ji Yunshuang.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, several semi-transparent Mirror Walls appeared before them, blocking their way, and large patches of Thorns grew along the sides.

By the time they shattered the Mirror Walls and made it through the Thorns, Lin You and Ji Yunshuang had already dashed into the Teleportation Array.

“Not good! They’re attempting to teleport! Close the array quickly!”

Unfortunately, no matter how they shouted, they reacted a step too late.

In a flash, a vast white light burst forth.

With a swoosh, Lin You and Ji Yunshuang disappeared right before their eyes, teleported to the border battlefield.
