Death… And Me

Tanxan nodded his jelly body. "It is. It\'s just that you can forget about anyone ever cultivating again there. It will be a Universe where only mortals are able to exist. It is quite a pitiful place if you ask me. But then again, if you didn\'t even know cultivation was possible, then it doesn\'t make much of a difference. That\'s the fate of such Universes."

Rean obviously thought about the other half of their Universe, where no Divine or Spiritual Energies existed. No one there knew about cultivation, so they couldn\'t miss what they didn\'t know existed. He also thought that once the Extinction Sphere appeared, there would be no one to fight against it like Soul Gem did.

Luan couldn\'t help but ask Rean and Roan through a Divine Sense Message. \'So are we truly going to leave this Foreign Fragment as it is? If we can destroy it, there will be an extra million Destiny Points, no?\'

Roan shook his head. \'We don\'t know if we can destroy it. Even if we do, that means Tanxan won\'t be able to jump back. It is out of the question.\'

Luan faintly smiled in response. \'Father is ruthless, no doubt. But it is not like he hasn\'t a heart,\' Luan thought to himself.

Roan was still concerned about something else. "Tanxan, what was that thing that was deactivating the system\'s abilities?"

Naturally, Tanxan remembered the Puppet that seemed to be able to change the configurations of the Reactor Room like himself. "That thing carried some blood inside itself. There is no doubt it was made with the blood of someone who was once a high-rank official of this ship. It also carried that individual\'s ID Card."

Tanxan then ordered, "System display the information of the crew member who was in this room before other than the corporals I entitled."

-Request accepted-

-Poret Perel-

-ID Number: 074t560A-

-First Grade Navigator-

Tanxan looked at the information displayed in front of him. "Poret Perel? I feel like I\'ve seen this guy before. Well, he is a first-grade navigator, so we probably did meet in the past during some route conferences. Oh, right! It was that kid!"

Tanxan remembered the other Jelly from his race. "Seems like he wasn\'t very lucky to be captured," he continued. "He got quite a high rank in the army in a short time. His cultivation wasn\'t that high, but he definitely knew how to do his job. What a pity, what a pity..."

"By blood, you meant this Jelly that composes your body, right?" Rean couldn\'t help but ask back.

"Who are you saying to have Jelly as a body?" Tanxan didn\'t seem happy with the remark. "You truly have no idea just how highly evolved our bodies are. We can pretty much take any shape or form to operate controls as we see fit. Not to mention that this form is several times more resistant to injuries than you guys can even hope to be."I think you should take a look at

"I see, I see. Sorry for that, senior Tanxan,\' Rean smiled as he apologized.

"Hmph! I feel like you don\'t feel sorry at all..." Tanxan obviously saw the smile on Rean\'s face. "Anyway, I have already revoked the authority of that thing. As for Poret Perel, there is nothing I can do. I doubt he is even alive."

"If he was, he would probably have been brought here," Roan concluded.

"Exactly," Tanxan also thought the same.

"So, senior Tanxan, what are you going to do now?" Rean asked Tanxan.

Tanxan already knew his next objective. "I told you, I will activate the Dimensional Thrusters and try to jump to the nearest Multi-Planes Repairing Dock. System, can the beacons of the ship detect any Repairing Docks nearby?"

-Searching...-

-Three options are available: Trindak Forces, Lupis Alliance, and Castrum Independent Docks.-

-Warning: Jumping to any of these Docks is not advised as the Dimensional Thrusters are severely damaged or have been out of service for too long.-

Tanxan ignored the message before looking back at the twins. "What about you two? Now that the Demon Beast and those two cultivators escaped, everyone will know that you have this \'Universe Fragment\' you talked about. They seemed all desperate to take it away. How about it? Do you want to come with me? There is a risk of dying when I try to jump away, but if it works, you won\'t need to worry about anyone coming after you anymore. From what I can see, this Universe still doesn\'t have the technology to allow its inhabitants to escape its shell."

Rean and Roan immediately shook their heads. "Thank you, but we have things to do in this Universe. Perhaps one day we will indeed leave this place, but it won\'t be today."

Tanxan didn\'t mind. "Is that so? Anyway, I\'m going back to Lingan Universe. If you ever decide to leave, you could try to find me there. If I don\'t die trying to go there, of course. Hahaha!"

The twins and Luan nodded. "We will do."

Tanxan decided to prepare after that. "Alright, you can go about your things for now. It will take me a few hours to activate the Spaceship, so make sure to go to the Realm of Gods you talked about before I depart."

"What about the experts that are still outside?" Rean wondered as he knew there were a lot more participants of this exploration that didn\'t appear in the Reactor Room. 

"They are not my problem," Tanxan couldn\'t care less, though. "In any case, you have corporal ranks, so you can ask the ship to help them if you wish. Alright, I\'m off."

In the next moment, the twins\' group felt the space around them changing before they were covered in silver light. Tanxan had used his authority to teleport the twins away. They could fight back and prevent it from happening but didn\'t do so. The next time they knew, they were already out of the Sector.
