BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1545 Arriving at Italy
Rea and the others had arrived inside the union. They were quite shocked by the sight of the town.
The outer area was filled with military personnel since they would be tackling the monsters from time to time. Unlike the time when the teleportation gate still existed, there was nothing that stopped them from entering the city, so they had to make sure that the border could hold on.
But when they sneaked inside and entered a bit deeper, they found that the roads had changed and many buildings had been demolished, replaced by many apartment complexes.
Due to the influx of refugees, it seemed that they had to use it as a solution. After all, they had limited space and a huge number of people. So, they had to wait until they began some expansion to get more space for housing.
Of course, the closer they were to the border, the more dangerous they were. So, the housing price was low and the living stability wasn't that great either. It looked like a slum.
When the group infiltrated a bit further, the housing became even better and the living area was filled with a smile. They hadn't forgotten about the apocalypse, but it seemed that they had moved on and continued their life like normal.
Still, richer people would want a better living standard. So, they were closer to the center of the union, which was based in Germany. At the very least, there was no border between countries anymore since the only border was for the monsters.
"It seems that people have gained some stability in their living." Rea furrowed her eyebrows.
"What are we going to do now, Rea?" Akbar asked.
"Well, does anyone want to call their family or something?"
Akbar and Eleanor shook their heads since they didn't have anyone there. Felix only had Millie in the base, so it was impossible to call her. The same applied to Isaac.
"I guess the only one who has to take care of it is myself. I have to call my family, Agata and Maya." Rea sighed before assigning their tasks. "Anyway, Eleanor and Akbar will find some information from the people. Your main priority is the way of living, the system of the union, and what happened in the past nine months, especially about the Griffith Family and all the related parties."
"Got it." Akbar and Eleanor nodded. Akbar patted Eleanor's head and said, "Follow me. It's time for you to gain some experience."
"Yes, Teacher."
Akbar and Eleanor immediately disappeared for their tasks.
After that, it was Felix's turn to receive his task. "I want you to create a way to connect with the War God Family, especially Sir War Saint. I hope they haven't lost their power because it'll be easier for them to influence the union. I have to meet Sir War Saint within a day."
"Got it." Felix disappeared after nodding, leaving Isaac and Levina.
"As for you two…" Rea pinched the bridge of her nose. "Sorry, but I don't think you can meet your father just yet, Levina. Calling him also has to wait until we confirm the current situation. We don't like to have your call intercepted after all."
"I can understand. I miss my father, but I believe it's not worth it to destroy the opportunity and cause a ruckus just because of my selfishness." Levina nodded.
"OK. So, your task will be to assist Isaac. I want you two to find any information in the Skynet, especially regarding the technical development or research."
Isaac and Levina agreed without hesitation. Since they didn't need to leave, they simply sat down near her and opened their Skylink.
Meanwhile, Rea took out her Skylink to call her father. It went through in an instant, followed by a huge cry.
"MY DAUGHTER!"
Rea was startled, looking at the Skylink in shock.
"I missed you so much! Are you alright? Did you gain some weight? Or did you lose some weight? Let me see your face. Do you have a person you like? Do y—"
"What the hell? Father… Can you stop for a moment?"
"But it's been so long ever since I last heard something from you."
"Ugh. Whatever. I just want to check whether you're still alive or not." Rea sighed.
"What? So cold. It must be because you haven't seen your father for a long time that you have become this cold. I have to complain to Theo."
"Alright, alright. I want to have a long talk with you, but it has to be a bit later. I'm on a mission this time… an important one that might involve a few hundred million lives. So, please…"
"…" When he heard it, the Sword Saint finally shut up. "Alright. Do you need any help?"
"Can you even cross the ocean?"
"If it's just a two to three hour flight, the fatality rate is not that high. But if we have to go to the US or Europe, I don't think it's possible yet."
"Yep. So, please wait for a moment. Let me finish the matter first… I'll call you again. I just want to tell you that I'm fine."
"I understand… I'll be waiting for your call, no, we'll be waiting for your call."
"Yes. Thank you, Father. I miss you and everyone else, I love you. Bye."
"I love you too. Be careful, alright? We'll be waiting for your call."
"Yes, Father." Rea smiled and hung up before calling Agata to inform Theo was alright and he was going to show something big.
Aside from her, Rea had to call Maya as well. She was surprised that Maya had been making big progress for the airplane, making them wait in anticipation.
After calling everyone that had to be called, Rea finally had some free time, albeit it was taken away by Felix.
"What the hell? Did you fail? How come you have returned here?"
Felix shook his head. "I met Theo's brother, Lorenzo. He brought me to meet him with his ability, so it was a breeze. He had agreed to meet you after the last meeting… So, in four hours."
"Got it. Let's get some rest first."
