My Space-Time System

Chapter 465 - 465 Cobra mob drug depot.



465 Cobra mob drug depot.

‘That is all I need to hear.’ Blake said as he immediately stepped away from the manhole and back into the building.

The plus side to the situation was that the tracking light on the map was still active, but had dimmed. This showed that the area had anti-tracking arrays that prevented finding out the hideout by tailing the customers.

This wasn’t the first time Blake had experienced something like this, that was why when it came to serious missions his plan would include giving the target an item of his.

‘Not to sound as if I am in a hurry, but isn’t she too slow?’ Blake couldn’t help but ask after seeing how slow the light dot was moving.

[I suspect that the entire sewer is lined up with gang members and checkpoints to make sure no one can infiltrate the area.] The system said.

The system was more than correct, but unknown to them the underground hideout was more massive than they thought.

The hideout covered the sewer of the entire area, meaning there were multiple entrances that also had hundreds of arrays and mid-to-high realm cultivators protecting the area.

After passing 4 checkpoints with a hero realm cultivator who hadn’t taken his eyes off her since the moment she entered the sewers, they had now reached the final one.

What seemed to be a dead end opened up, revealing stairs that led lower into the ground. As she walked down the flight of stairs, the entrance behind her closed shut and she felt the walls by the sides scanning her.

.....

This wasn’t her 1st nor 30th time she had visited the area but she still felt uncomfortable just like the first time she had walked down the flight of stairs.

The moment the boss had walked down the flight of stairs, the tracking light dot on Blake’s map had vanished.

‘Seems we are really dealing with a top gang.’ Blake said.

Since he started making use of his items to track people, this was the first time he had come across anti-tracking arrays or artifacts that nullified the locator spell.

[We still have no idea what this place is.] The system said.

‘I have 3 ideas. The first is that she is here to answer to her boss or give her daily quota of earnings. 2nd is that she might be here to resupply her drugs.’

‘The 3rd option is that a group of drug dealers are having some kind of meeting, but I highly doubt that because her hideout and number of people that work for her show that she is a small fry.’ Blake said.

The 3 guesses were all plausible, but the correct guess was the 2nd. This wasn’t any drug depot, it was the largest in the entire city.

It was ran by the cobra mob which was the 3 strongest gang in the city and majored in everything related to hard drugs.

The hard drugs were cooked in one of the mountains north of the city, and then they would be smuggled into the city and brought to the depot.

They chose to have only one depot for the entire city to reduce the number of resources and manpower they spent. This enabled them to reinvest the resources into expanding and making the depot even more secure.

[What do you plan on doing now?] The system asked Blake after 20 minutes of no one coming out of the manhole or not taking his eyes off the map.

‘At this point, I am quite confused, what if she is actually part of the gang and resides here? This means waiting here would be a waste of time, but if I am wrong it means I would lose track of her next destination.’

Blake was weighing his options when a thought came into his head.

He immediately cast the locator spell and instead of searching for the coin he went for the boss.

To his surprise, the white light had reappeared on the map but it was currently moving away from his current location.

[Seems she had gone out through another passage.] The system stated.

The drug depot had tens of entrances, so they usually sent customers away from a random one to throw anyone following them off their senses.

‘Time to chase.’ Blake activated the spatial mark and immediately warped out of the range of the arrays.

“Thank the heavens the guardian scarab doesn’t run on mana else things would have been more difficult.” Blake said.

Although he had way more mana than normal mages of the same realm, casting space travel costs a lot of mana and mental energy, especially when done without the void daggers.

[She seems to be returning to her hideout.] The system stated when they saw the direction in which the light dot was moving at.

When they returned to the southern part of the middle region the boss had gone done the same manhole and back into the secret hideout. This time she didn’t take up to 5 minutes and she was out of the area.

‘I can always track her so it’s best I find out what is inside now that no one is around.’ Blake said.

Once confirmed that the boss was nowhere close, Blake disabled the arrays protecting the doors and made his way inside.

Apart from the single chair and low-tier dimensional amulet in the single room, it was empty.

Blake wasted no time grabbing the amulet before disabling its security arrays and accessing it. Once opened Blake found loads of different types of hard drugs. They ranged from edibles to powders and liquids of different colors.

‘I wonder what these drugs would have to contain to be able to affect cultivators.’ Blake said in an intrigued tone but had no plans of finding out.

[Are you going after her?] The system asked.

‘There is no need, if my guess is correct she is returning home to call it a day.’ Blake said.
