Chapter 614 - Black Mist Accelerates (Part 1)
Upon seeing Dark Crow’s wretched appearance, Lu Ran knew it had definitely caused trouble.
“But speak freely. I pardon you.” Lu Ran waved his hand.
Inside the palace, he was dressed casually, having just finished a bath and wearing a bathrobe; he could be called Emperor Bathrobe.
Dark Crow wiped away tears and said, “It wasn’t really my fault to begin with. I was just following your orders to scout the edge of the star domain. The clones had already produced some results, and the black mist was relatively stable, but not long after I arrived, the black mist’s expansion speed increased. My King, what do we do? Wuwuwu, it wasn’t my intention to make you heirless.”
Lu Ran was speechless.
“What does the black mist accelerating have to do with me being heirless? Were the clones even doing their jobs seriously? Wait, black mist accelerating... You didn’t say something to the black mist, did you?” Lu Ran suspected.
Dark Crow chuckled. “I just said, ’Unless the black mist’s expansion speed suddenly increases, we still have plenty of time to prepare?’ A perfectly normal sentence, my King! Surely you can’t take it out of context and say that I told the black mist expansion speed to increase! The Spiritual Speech attribute can’t possibly misinterpret my meaning, right?”
Lu Ran felt mentally exhausted. He had a feeling that it should be related to Dark Crow, but not caused by its Spiritual Speech.
“Maintain contact with the clones and keep observing the black mist situation. If I’m not mistaken, the black mist probably only accelerated a bit.”
Dark Crow stopped talking nonsense and was about to continue observing when it suddenly remembered the discoveries made by Manager Ying’s clone.
It turned back and also told Lu Ran about some clues discovered by Manager Ying’s clone.
“Inside the black mist and outside the black mist are on two different time axes?” Lu Ran fell into thought.
