SWNOVELS Chapter 1051
Chapter 1051 Arrival
Upon hearing Valery’s refusal, Kaleb sneered and said, “Miss, I approached you with this information because I find
you attractive. On Promise Island, finding a reliable man is extremely important. The one beside you is nothing more than a
super expert. To put it bluntly, he’s just cannon fodder on Promise Island!” “Pfft!” Gerald couldn’t help but laugh, “So you, a peak
Half-Step Flame
Decayer, think you’re reliable? I thought you were a motherfucking eternal Flame Decayer! This is my wife, so why don’t you go
chill somewhere else!”
What did you say?” Kaleb suddenly turned to Gerald and said, “How dare a little super expert like you talk to me like that? There
aren’t many rules on Promise Island, Do you believe that once you get off the ship, I can make you die at the port?”
“Looking forward to it!” Gerald chuckled lightly, then wrapped his arm around Valery’s waist and headed towards the cabin!
On the ship, private fights are strictly forbidden. This is because many of the passengers on board are experts at the level of
Flame Decay. If they were to engage in combat, the ship could potentially sink straight to the bottom of the sea.
When this guy threatened to kill Gerald as soon as they got off the ship, Gerald really wanted to throw this fellow straight into the
sea.
However, it was expected that the people on the other side would take action at that time. Getting involved with Flame
Decayer’s actions could lead to many unnecessary troubles. After Gerald muttered a few words, he simply didn’t bother with it
anymore. Of course, if this fellow dared to lay a hand on him when disembarking, Gerald wouldn’t mind taking care of him on the
spot. Kaleb returned to his companions with a gloomy expression on his face. They laughed heartily and said, “You were actually
outwitted by someone at the super level.”
“By the time the ship reaches Promise Island, this kid will pay the price!” Kaleb said with an ugly expression on his face.
“Do I need to step in? Maybe I can enjoy that woman’s company for a couple of days!” someone nearby asked with a laugh.
“Let’s all enjoy it together!” Kaleb said with a sarcastic laugh. At the side, the expert with the level of
Flame Decay slapped the table and said, “You guys better be careful. If a super expert like him dares to speak like this, who
knows what kind of powerful backing he has!”
“So what if he has powerful backing? On Promise Island, I have a hundred ways to play him to death without anyone behind him
knowing!” Kaleb sneered.
Gerald and Valery entered the cabin, planning to return to their own room.
Their room was also by the sea, with windows, but it wasn’t as straightforward as being on the deck. As they walked towards the
room, they found Triston and Kristian walking out arm in arm, looking like the best of friends.
These two guys seemed to have a similar taste for mischief. Seeing the anticipation and sly smiles on their faces, Gerald
immediately guessed that they were definitely planning to go to the first floor and experience the local
customs on this ship. Valery looked at the two of them with a suspicious expression and asked, “What are you guys planning to
do?”
“Kristian is planning to invite me to a restaurant for a meal, do you guys want to join?” Triston asked. After giving it some thought,
Valery’said, “Alright!” Triston was stunned for a moment! Then
he coughed dryly and said, “I suddenly don’t feel hungry anymore. Why don’t you two go eat instead?”
Gerald couldn’t be bothered to argue with this guy. He looked at the two of them speechlessly, then said to Valery, “Let them go
eat, we’ll go later!”
After giving it some thought, Valery nodded and said, “That works. I’ll go with Anabel and the others later.”
Only then did Triston quietly breathe a sigh of relief, and together with Kristian, they happily ran shoulder to shoulder towards the
first floor.
Gerald and Valery returned to their room and took a short break. Soon after, Valery called Anabel and Sylvie to join them as they
headed towards the restaurant on the third floor of the ship. The restaurant was quite large, but it was a bit noisy inside!
Gerald and his three friends found a place to sit down. Just as they settled in, he saw Triston and Kristian walk into the
restaurant with expressions of lingering excitement. Upon spotting Gerald and the others, the two of them hurried over.
Upon seeing the two of them, Valery immediately understood the situation. She wordlessly glanced at them, not wanting to
expose their secret. She then
ordered a few dishes, and Kristian took the initiative to pay for the meal. They waited inside the restaurant. Just then, Gerald
noticed Kaleb and about ten others walking into the restaurant. As
Gerald spotted them, they also noticed him. Upon seeing the seven people at Gerald’s table, a look of disdain appeared on
Kaleb’s face.
In Gerald’s group, from the outside, the strongest among them seemed to be Anabel. However, she was merely at the level of
Half-Step Flame Decay. Kaleb felt that he could easily crush all seven of them single-handedly.
Upon seeing Gerald’s gaze, Kaleb flashed a disdainful smile at him and then made a throat-slashing gesture! “What’s the
situation with this fellow?” Triston asked. “Just now, on the deck, he was trying to flirt with Valery!” Gerald said with a serious
expression.
Kristian’s expression turned cold as he said, “Why don’t I just go find the captain, reveal my identity, and have these people
thrown into the sea?”
Kristian is a member of the Archaic Tribe and a heir of the direct lineage. His father is even the eternal Flame Decayer. In
Havotune, Kristian’s status is actually quite high. It’s just that he’s a bit of a goofball, so it’s hard to tell.
However, if he were to reveal his identity, most people on this ship would probably have to kneel before him. Valery shook her
head and said, “Forget
it, we should keep a low profile on this trip. Gerald is already being watched by people from other forces all the time, and we
don’t want our whereabouts to be exposed. You guys don’t want the other Seven Forces to find out and come to share the spoils
either, so there’s no need to cause any conflict!”
“Let’s talk about it after we get off the boat. These guys seem to think we’re easy targets and plan to make a move on us once
we disembark. We’ll have a good time playing with them then.” Gerald said with a light chuckle, his tone icy.
Valery was Gerald’s Achilles’ heel. Initially, when Anabel said she wanted Valery and Carolyn to become her younger brother’s
slaves, Gerald dared to make a move against Anabel!
This time, if the other party continues to provoke, he has no reason to let them off the hook.
“By the way, does anyone know about Promise Island? Tell me about some of its features,” Gerald said. As for this island, they
still have only a limited understanding of it.
“Allow me to explain. My father had planned to send me to this island before, so I’ve researched quite a bit about it. This place is
like a small world within Havotune. Although the Eight Forces still hold a dominant position, it’s relative. First of all, this island is
very dangerous,
filled with numerous mutants.” Kristian took the initiative to introduce. “These mutants are extremely powerful and will attack
ordinary humans on sight. Among them... there are even those with the eternal level of Flame Decay.
One theory is that these people were all employees of Promise Tech Group, and the explosion turned them into what they are
now,” Kristian said. “In addition, there are also some beasts, most of which have mutated as well.
They are likely remnants from the biological research institute run by Promise Tech Group back in the day.
After the explosion, they stayed behind and multiplied. Other than that, there are the treasure hunters,” Kristian said. “Because
this place is extremely dangerous, even the
Eight Forces can only ensure safety within a certain range. So, the treasure hunters tend to gather together and have a base.
Otherwise, survival would be very difficult, and food would be a problem. All the animals and plants on Promise Island are not
suitable for consumption.”
Gerald gasped as he took in the information. The place felt like a massive, mutated site, and who knew what kind of research
and development this tech company had been up to back in the day. “Most Treasure Hunters join a treasure hunting group,
gathering together and supporting each other,” Kristian said.
“However, in the wilderness, people are actually the most dangerous. Even members of the Eight Forces are not safe.
So, in the wilderness, one must be strong. Of course, there are only a few eternal Flame Decayers, so our journey should not be
too dangerous.”
Gerald nodded, indicating that he now had a general understanding of the structure on this island. After eating, they returned to
their own rooms!
A day and a half passed quietly, and in the afternoon of the second day, Gerald saw an island in the distance. The entire island
was shrouded in a strange red mist, giving it an eerie and mysterious atmosphere. “Finally, we’ve arrived!” he said slowly, taking
a deep breath. “I hope this trip goes smoothly!”
