Chapter 449 More than an Airship 2
He sounded like he was joking, but given his immense power, it felt less like a jest and more like an absolute prediction.
The van stop at its assigned spot, the engine rumbling softly before turning off.
When the doors swung open, Reign and Eli stepped out, greeted by the sight of an active media zone.
Cameras were being unloaded from cases, tripods were set up, and crew members hustled about, making last-minute adjustments to their equipment.
A cluster of journalists stood huddled together, discussing their strategies and the angles they planned to capture.
Some were flipping through notepads filled with scribbled notes, while others adjusted their microphones and checked the sound levels on their cameras.
A few were already setting up lights, creating a bright stage area that contrasted sharply with the dim, metallic surroundings of the hangar.
"Looks like they're really taking this seriously," Eli commented.
"Uh, yeah," Reign replied in a detached tone. He couldn't care less about all of this.
All he wanted was to find a way to enter the airship and check it out.
A plan was already forming in his mind: he would need to neutralize one of the soldiers and disguise himself as one of them.
It was a classic maneuver—get inside, blend in, and gather as much information as possible without raising suspicion.
He looked around the area, noting the positions of the armed soldiers. There were a dozen of them.
But that didn't deter him.
He had faced worse odds before. He just needed to find the right moment, a gap.
For now, blending in seemed like the best approach.
Eli started mingling with the crew, fitting in effortlessly among the busy journalists.
Everyone seemed to know her; she was well-liked and had been in the journalism world for a long time.
With her friendly smile and confident attitude, she easily sparked conversations with her colleagues, sharing jokes and catching up on old stories.
Reign followed closely behind, careful to maintain a low profile.
She handed it to Reign with a flirty smile "Here you go! Let's grab some coffee sometime."
He just accepted the card, tucking it into his pocket without much thought.
"So about the inside news," Eli said, determined to steer the conversation back on track.
She knew her friend well enough to anticipate that if she didn't redirect the chat, it would quickly devolve into more flirting. Continue your saga on empire
Cassy straightened up, her professional demeanor returning as she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
"Well, I've heard some whispers around. Apparently, the Behemoth's appearance here was due to an emergency in the whole region. They're gearing up for something big."
"An emergency? What kind of emergency?" Eli pressed,
"There have been reports of unusual activity —rumors of a new powerful corrupted emerging .The military is on high alert, and the Behemoth is here to reinforce their efforts. They're preparing against an invasion,"
"Have you heard anything about the nature of these new corrupted?" Eli asked, keeping her voice steady.
This was information concealed by the government, but Cassy's awareness of it suggested they were ready to release it to the public soon.
"Not much, to be honest. But I heard that the earthquake before was caused by it "
"Seriously? That's... terrifying." Eli's eyes widened.
She turned to Reign, expecting to see his reaction to the shocking news, but he looked unfazed.
Why would he react ?
When he was the one responsible for it in the first place.
"We were told we'd also be getting a Tier 1 Hunter representative to join us. Should be an interesting interview!" Cassy added.
Reign's ears perked up at the mention of the Tier 1 Hunter.
"Who's the representative?" he asked
"I'm not sure, but I heard he's from one of the most influential hunter families,"
'Interesting. This is getting better and better,'
