Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 1052

The boat gently approached a harbor! This harbor seems to be quite bustling. Gerald finished packing his things, found Valery and the others, and waited on the deck to disembark.

At this moment, Kristian took the initiative to explain, “Although Promise Island is dangerous, countless people are still drawn to it. However, many have

tried and failed. Without reaching the super level, the naturally formed red mist on the island will cause people to lose themselves, go insane, and become just like the mutants living here. Scientists have collected samples of the mist for research, but they haven’t been able to make any sense of it.

Many people believe that the explosion at Promise Tech Group back then was most likely caused by their research on the mist,” Kristian said. “Of course, it’s all speculation. Thousands of years have passed, and no one has figured out the exact reason. Since the fall of Promise Tech Group, Havotune’s technological advancement has been stagnant for these thousands of years.”

Sylvie nodded and said, “The most important thing is that at that time, all those people either disappeared or died due to the explosion, which led to the interruption of the craftsman attribute lineage.”

Gerald gazed at the mist not far away, his face revealing a hint of contemplation. At this moment, the boat was already heading towards the shore to dock.

“This island only has one port, but it’s actually quite large. To reach our destination, we have to pass through several areas. Our tribe, the Archaic Tribe, is located in the southwest part of the island, where we have a small city.

According to our estimates, that place should be a Core District of the Promise Tech Group!” Kristian said, “The Eight Forces have also mostly established their bases in that area.”

Gerald nodded as they spoke, and as their conversation continued, the boat had already docked steadily at the shore. Many people began to disembark from the deck!

On this ship, everyone is a master at the super level or above. Gerald observes the expressions of the others. These people all have expectations and fears.

The hope was to find something on this island that would bring overnight wealth, but the fear was that the island was simply too dangerous.

The Archaic Tribe has sent a master at the peak of Half-Step Flame Decay level to pick us up. We don’t have any

experience in wilderness survival, and most of what I know comes from books, not from actually living on this island. It’s good to have someone guide us at first, so when it’s time for us to search for things, we’ll have enough experience!” Kristian said. Gerald nodded and said, “No problem!”

They began to line up to disembark, and just as they stepped off, Kaleb’s squad, a total of ten people, closely followed them down.

“These fellows have followed us,” Triston said with an eager expression on his face. “It seems like they really want to take us on!” Gerald subtly nodded his head and said, “I can see that.”

They disembarked from the ship and found themselves at the harbor, where quite a few people had come to greet them. Among them was a woman in her thirties who, upon seeing Kristian and his companions, hurried over to them. She approached Kristian and asked softly, “Mr. Kristian Pierce?”

Clearly, she had obtained Kristian’s information beforehand, and she was the representative of the Archaic Tribe on this island, here to welcome Gerald and his companions. “Right! We’re here to carry out a mission,” said Kristian.

The person quickly nodded and then politely said, “My name is Lucinda Buck, my car is parked at the harbor. Please follow me!”

Kristian and the others didn’t say much, and when it came to the mission, they maintained complete confidentiality.

Gerald and his six companions followed her through the harbor, arriving at the area above the port where many hover cars were parked. Gerald asked curiously, “Can we still drive hover cars in this place?”

Lucinda nodded and said, “Yes, a hover car would be faster for traveling.” Soon, they found the hover car. At this point, Triston frowned and asked, “There’s no sign of the Archaic Tribe?”

“This place is different from Havotune. Most of the people active in the wilderness here are desperate outlaws.

They would do anything to survive and gain more benefits. Revealing our identity as members of the Archaic Tribe might deter some, but it would also excite others. That’s because people from the Eight Forces must have treasures on them. If someone dies in

Hayotune, there might still be traces to follow, but once you die here, there’s nothing left to investigate.” Lucinda said, furrowing her brow, “Have you been targeted by someone?”

“Let’s give them a little trouble. Show them an opening, and let them catch up!” Kristian said nonchalantly.
