Female Novel
Chapter 5456
After saying goodbye to Maria, Nana returned home with two things on his mind.
Firstly, he was determined to make the most of his time and refine the Thunderbolt that Maria hadgiven him, the Mother of Pu’er, the Lightning Strike Wood.
Secondly, he needed to keep a close eye on the Boeing 777’s next destination, which he suspectedmight be Aurous Hill. If that were the case, he had to be ready to deal with it promptly.
With eight hours remaining until the next stop of the Boeing 777, Nana wasted no time and immediatelybegan the process of refining the Thunderbolt once he got home.
Refining the Thunderbolt wasn’t new to Nana; he had done it before. But as he entered the lightningstrike wood of the Mother of Pu’er, he encountered unexpected difficulties. The spirit energy he used toperfect the formation struggled to make an impact, as if the lightning strike had become incrediblyresilient and hard to work with.
In the past, the aura was like a carving knife, and the lightning strike wood was like soft wood, easilyaccepting the markings. But now, it was like trying to carve into hard steel with a simple knife.
Nana was taken aback by the surprising toughness of the wood. He had no magical tools that couldhelp him get through this, so he had no other choice but to infuse the wood with more and more reiki.The reiki consumption escalated rapidly, similar to when Maria’s ring had absorbed it so voraciously.
Nana knew there was no turning back, though. To turn the Mother of Pu’er into a powerful tool, heneeded to invest more effort.
In his determination, he used a Regeneration Pill to supplement the rapidly depleting reiki. After severalhours of intense work, Nana finally opened his eyes, sweat dripping down his face.
He now held a palm-sized, jet-black Thunderbolt in his hand, giving off a faint metallic luster. Thetexture was so fine that it seemed impossible to believe it was made of wood. Holding it, he couldsense the electricity coursing through it, reminiscent of a storm at sea with thunder and lightningflashing and roaring.
Feeling the connection with the immense power of the Thunderbolt, Nana was amazed at its potencycompared to the previous one.
Just as he was excitedly examining his newly refined creation, Isaac Cameron called again with crucialinformation. The Boeing 777 had requested a route from Melbourne, Australia, to Mandalay, Myanmar.
“Mandalay?” Nana frowned. “Are you certain about this information?”novelbin
“Absolutely,” Isaac Cameron replied confidently. “The flight route reported to the Australian air trafficcontrol department is for Mandalay. The plane will land in Melbourne Airport in about four hours, restfor an hour, and then continue to fly to Mandalay. It will take at least ten hours to reach Mandalay fromMelbourne.”
Relieved that the plane was not heading to Aurous Hill, Nana was curious about why the Warriors Densuddenly sent a plane to Myanmar.
Intrigued, he called Maria and shared the news with her. Maria seemed surprised by the developmentand pondered, “Why would Morgana suddenly send someone to Myanmar…”
Nana suggested, “Perhaps they have dead soldiers stationed there, or maybe the Chinese army isinvolved?”
Maria chimed in, “According to Morgana’s cautious nature, she’d put the entire Warriors Den inlockdown. The Five Armies would operate independently and in silence. Sending someone from theheadquarters would be highly unlikely…”
Puzzled, Nana questioned, “If the Chinese army’s Governor’s Mansion isn’t in Myanmar, then whatcould be Morgana’s intention?”
Maria paused, saying, “My intuition tells me it might be Morgana herself going to Myanmar.”
“Her? Morgana herself?” Nana exclaimed, surprised. “Why do you think that, Ms. Clark?”
“It’s just a gut feeling,” Maria explained. “The Young Master’s empty city plan must have terrifiedMorgana. Sending a plane to Myanmar so quickly indicates she might be going there personally.”
Nana pressed, “Then what do you think her purpose in Myanmar could be?”
Maria speculated, “If I’m right, she might be planning to enter China secretly through the SouthernMyanmar border.”
Nana was taken aback, “Morgana coming to China?! Does she plan to visit Aurous Hill in person?”
“No,” Maria clarified. “She won’t come to Aurous Hill herself. My guess is that she wants to go to thesouth first, then head to Shiwan.”
“Morgana in China…” Nana mused. “But why go to Myanmar first? Wouldn’t it be more convenient tofly directly to Vietnam? Shiwan is closer to the Vietnam border.”
Maria thought for a moment before saying, “Perhaps she wants to visit the south first, possibly to revisither past. And then, she’ll head to Shiwan in search of Master’s legendary materials, treasures, andtools.”
Maria continued, “With more than ten hours until she arrives in Myanmar, she won’t use conventionalchannels to enter China. She might cross the border secretly. Mandalay is over 300 kilometers awayfrom the border, so she’ll have a few hours’ window to enter the southern province.”
Nana couldn’t help but inquire, “That window period? Do you think she’ll use this time to reach thesouthern province?”
