Death... and me



"Are you sure?" Rean inquired, seeking confirmation. "We have no idea what kind of being is sealed inside the Cryogenic Chamber. As far as we know, it might be someone at the Divinity Realm who doesn't welcome visitors."

However, Roan's concern lay elsewhere. "The longer we take, the greater the chances of the Vruve or some other expert seizing the Universe Fragment for themselves. Besides, didn't the system mention that the condition of the being in the Cryo Pod was critical? Even if their cultivation is significant, we should have enough time to at least enter the Dimensional Realm and teleport away."

"That's assuming this individual doesn't disrupt the space around us, right?" Rean narrowed his eyes, mindful of the limitations of the Circuitry Teleport Formation.

Roan nodded. "We'll deal with it when the time comes. The Fragment takes precedence."

In response, Rean let out a sigh. "Fine. I must admit, I'm curious about this being from another Universe." He shifted his attention back to the system. "System, show us the nearest route to teleport to Sector 120A, specifically Cryogenic Pod number 401349X."

*Zum, zum, zum, zum...*

As expected, arrows indicating the path appeared on the walls once again. The twins left the room with the terminal and followed the arrows, passing by the Patrolling Robots once more. "System, would it be possible for me to acquire one of those defense robots for personal use?"

Celis had suggested that Rean and Roan attempt to obtain these robots so that he could harness their Divine Origin Energy. The Divine Origin Energy inside them seemed untainted by anyone's cultivation, making it usable for their own purposes.

-Negative. Only the command center and authorized personnel are permitted to interact with the Defense System Bots. Any unauthorized interaction will be met with force by the ship's Defense Systems.-

Rean couldn't help but feel disappointed, though not to the extent of Celis inside the Dimensional Realm. 'Damn! This clearance of yours is useless! Rean, you have to obtain a higher clearance at any cost!'

Rean simply ignored Celis and continued to move in the direction indicated by the arrows alongside Roan and Luan. Along the way, Rean entered a few other rooms to inspect them. He found many materials that could be used in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, so he sent them all inside. They were all low-level, but he planned to utilize them for future construction in the dimensional realm.

After over an hour, the twins and Luan arrived at the teleportation formations, even though they were still within the same Sector. They entered a room with numerous empty circular platforms on the ground, varying in size from accommodating thousands of people to just one individual. Despite the differences, they all served the same purpose.

"Are these platforms used for teleportation?" Rean asked.

-Correct. Please be mindful of energy conservation. Our Spaceship requires energy to traverse the planes, so everyone should contribute. Select a Teleportation Device that suits your needs.-

Rean shrugged. "It feels like the government advertisements back on Earth about not wasting water, food, etc..."

Roan paid little attention to it and simply chose a platform large enough for around five or six people. "This should suffice. Let's get on with it."

Rean and Luan joined Roan on the same platform before saying, "System, teleport us to the nearest teleportation device to Cryogenic Pod 401349X in Sector 120A."

A green light illuminated the platform, seemingly unaffected by the Space Stagnation and other powers.

*Vup, vup, vup!*

In an instant, a green and silver light flashed, and the twins' group disappeared from sight.

*Vup, vup, vup!*

Less than a second later, the same green and silver light shone on another platform in a completely different location within the Spaceship. The teleportation had transported the twins more than halfway across the ship, all the way to the left wing of the delta-shaped Spaceship.

*Plin!*

-Welcome, Rean Larks, Clearance Manager of Sector 507-258B.-

The robotic voice echoed in the room as the twins and Luan stepped off the platform. The room lit up, a rare occurrence, revealing the many other platforms surrounding them.

"System, show us the path to Cryogenic Pod number 401349X," Rean requested without wasting time.

However, the system remained silent for a moment before finally responding. -Error: Cryogenic Pod number 401349X is currently inaccessible.-

"Inaccessible? Why?" they immediately inquired.

-Cryogenic Pod number 401349X is located within the damaged Cryogenic Chamber 13R. Due to the extent of the damage, accessing Pod 401349X is currently impossible. Repairs are necessary.-

Roan expressed his dissatisfaction. "System, the life signal of the being inside the pod is critical, correct? We don't mind navigating through a damaged path; just guide us."

-Warning! The weapons system along the path to Cryogenic Pod 401349X has lost connection with the central weapons control system. As a safety measure, it has switched to automatic mode. The weapons system will attack any life forms not originating from the Seventh Region.-

Rean, Roan, and Luan possessed Identification Cards from Sector 507-258B in the Eleventh Region, indicating that they were not native to this area. "It was too good to be true."

"What should we do now?" Luan asked.

They immediately recalled the weapons they had encountered outside the ship. Those devices could pose a threat to the lives of Space-Time Realm beings, let alone their own. "We managed to evade the weapons outside using Rean's Light Bending Skill. However, the sensors inside the ship are likely to be much more advanced." Roan didn't expect everything to be that simple.

Luan decided to ask the system directly. "System, what kind of sensors does the weapons system along the path to Pod 401349X employ?"

-Request denied. The user does not have the necessary access level to inquire about the weapons systems.-

Sighing, Luan had anticipated that response. "Well, at least it was worth a try."

Roan patted Luan's shoulder. "Stay back and keep an eye on our surroundings. Our only option is to test these weapons ourselves. Let's proceed!"
