Death... and me



Roan didn't need to go with Rean this time. Rean just approached the entrance of the Cryogenic Chamber 13R with his modified body. Well, his body wasn't really different. But because of his Light Bending Skill and the thermal change, it would be very hard to tell which part was the real center of mass. That's because the materials molded around him made him look to have a center of mass far from the body itself.

*Ziu, ziu, ziu...*

The same three lasers once again shoot, arriving at Rean's location in an instant. This time, however, they hit the fake center of mass that Rean created with the materials. Of course, Rean still retreated straight away as the material he used to make the fake mass was immediately pierced through. "Alright, Roan. Just get the same materials as me and use your Divine Energy to mold them in a similar way. Considering the interval between shots, it should be enough for us to attack those weapons at the end of the corridor."

Roan nodded, immediately following Rean's lead. They made sure that the shape they took didn't hinder their movements before they counted to three.

"Three!"

'Life Style, Enhancement!'

'Death Style, Shadow Steps!'

Their bodies surged with speed, charging straight at the lasers. Obviously, the lasers noticed it and shot once again.

Just because they created fake centers of mass around their bodies, it didn't mean that Rean and Roan would let them be hit by the weapons. They quickly used Roan's Shadow Steps skill to dodge the lasers, preventing the fake centers of mass from being hit. 'Hmph! As long as we know where they are aiming, dodging is not an issue,' they thought.

*Ziu, ziu, ziu, ziu, ziu...*

Although there were intervals between shots, they lasted less than a tenth of a second. The twins had to perform over ten changes of direction over the space of a little over a hundred meters to avoid all of them. Fortunately, at their cultivation level, that was pretty easy to do. Even Luan would probably have no trouble doing the same.

'Death Style, Death Scythe!'

'Life Fire, Flame Emperor Slash!'

'Death Style, Stelar Piercer!'

*Swish, Swish, Pucchi!*

*Boom, boom, boom!*

The moment the weapons on the walls were hit, they exploded due to the Divine Origin Energy and Elements accumulated inside to shoot. 

Fortunately for the twins, they didn't even have to use their fused energies. Divine Origin Energy alone was more than enough considering they also had their Stellar Bodies. In an environment where Space Power is severely affected, the twins truly have an enormous advantage.

*Buan, buan, buan, buan...*

Unfortunately, destroying the weapons on the walls was the least of the twins' problems. Alarms began to sound around them, which prompted the door behind them to close immediately. Fortunately, Luan had used the chance to get past the door as soon as he saw that the twins would succeed in destroying the lasers. Nonetheless, that meant the three of them got no way back unless they used the Circuitry Teleport Formation.

"Should we leave?" Rean immediately remembered how this alarm had happened before, just to disappear a few seconds later, saying that the threat had been eliminated.

Roan shook his head. "Not before ascertaining what we are dealing with. If it is really impossible, we will give up rescuing whoever is in that Cryo Pod." He then looked back. "Luan, keep informing us of the dangers around."

"Yes, Father!" Luan didn't stop using his Sacred Eyes even for a moment since they entered. From there onward, he used Divine Sense to communicate. 'Father, Uncle Rean, five masses of Divine Origin Energy are moving in our way from the corridor on the left, thirty steps ahead. They will appear in your line of sight in four seconds.'

The twins nodded. 'They should be the patrolling bots.'

Sure enough, five of the robots the twins had seen many times immediately appeared in front. However, the moment they did, a Dark and White wave of Light and Dark Elements was already there to meet them.

'Death Style, Death Scythe!'

'Death Style, Crescent Moon!'

*Swish, swish, swish, clang, clang!*

All the robots generated a Divine Origin Energy shield around them as they formed a line. The first three robots were still slashed through by the twins' attacks. However, they also helped reduce the twins' attack strength so that the two robots behind could survive.

Rean and Roan narrowed their eyes. 'Their combat AI is truly impressive. Even at such close range, they immediately identified that it was impossible to hold our attacks back and communicated with each other to get three of them to sacrifice so two could survive.'

Fortunately, the twins were using their shared memories for communication, so everything happened in a fraction of a second.

*Boom, boom, boom!*

The three robots that were cut down immediately exploded their Divine Origin Cores, causing a blast around them.

The twins were also within the explosion range, so they were forced to retreat. Not that they couldn't resist the explosion, but that it would be a waste of energy.

*Ziu, ziu!*

From behind the explosion, two rays of Light and Dark Elements pierced through the blast, aiming straight at the twins. It's just that these rays did the same thing as the previous weapons on the walls. They aimed at the fake center of mass the twins had created with other materials.

The twins were surprised by the attack as there were no lasers on the walls around them. The auto-recovery system also worked on those weapons after they were destroyed, but it took a lot longer to fix them than it did to fix damaged walls. They were nowhere near being repaired yet. The ones who shot the lasers were the robots who survived instead.

The twins obviously dodged the lasers straight away. They might be surprised, but it wasn't like they weren't expecting something to happen in this situation.

*Zush, zush!*

However, right where the lasers passed, two balls of energy suddenly materialized, taking the form of the robots from before.

'What?!' This time, the twins were truly taken aback. 'They can use their lasers to teleport!'

They only had time to think about it when suddenly, the robots' bodies turned red, just like the other three. 'Fuck! They will self-explode too!'

*Boom, boom!*

Rean and Roan immediately retreated. At the same time, they finally used their Fused Energy to protect against the explosion. It was only a bit of fused energy, but they used it nonetheless.

*Tud, tud.*

They landed once again on Luan's side. "This won't be easy..."

Luan's eyes immediately detected more movements. 'Father, Uncle Rean, another seven of them coming from the end of the corridor.'

Rean and Roan looked at each other and nodded. 'We can only move and fight at the same time. Luan, follow us!' And thus, they started to make their way to the Cryo Pod.
