Chapter 974 - World’s Information
After taking off, the s.h.i.+p was stabilized. Aria kept looking around, finding one planet after another. She looked so happy when she found something like this.
After all, she never saw anything beyond her sect and had already witnessed this, it was insane. This might be the best day of her life.
What shocked her was asteroids. Due to the fact that most of them had been mined, they couldn"t find anything useful anymore. Of course, the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p didn"t care about these asteroids and went through them without a care.
It seemed there was a Rank 9 Barrier Array that acted as the last support. And with this size alone, there should be a dozen of Rank 9 Barrier Arrays, capable of fending off hundreds if not thousands of G.o.d Rank Experts" attacks.
"Is our s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p geared with this array formation too?" Alex asked.
[Of course. We even have a variation of metals that can enhance the array formation, allowing us to deal with any kind of attacks with different types of elements, except time.]
"Now that I think about it, is there an element like swallowing or devouring?"
[I think you are thinking about Dark Element. The so-called devouring is nothing that fancy. You might be able to devour someone, but I haven"t seen any single Devouring Technique that could absorb the enemy"s whole skills or cultivation. That"s why it"s not very popular unlike the stories.]
"Fair enough. Even this system has many limitations." Alex nodded. "It"s not like I can level up while the others only get their power back after sealing it inside the system."
[Exactly. Nothing is perfect. That I can a.s.sure.]
"In that case, can the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p withstand the attack of a G.o.d King? You should know about my previous life, right? If he is the attacker, can our s.h.i.+p withstand him? And how many attacks can it be?"
[1.]
"One?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows.
[Yes. For a G.o.d King specialized in fight, their power is immeasurable. For example, Phitrus. He can manipulate the Fire Element, including Spiritual Energy that contains Fire Element. In other words, when he attacks a barrier array like this and we use Fire Element Array to lessen the damage, he can simply bypa.s.s it using his power.]
[The same applies to that Sword G.o.d, he cut everything, including this barrier. That Pure Sword Qi is too unique to be stopped. I am sure you have realized it yourself. As for your previous self, although your offensive power is the third strongest, your fighting style is the best.]
[What we are talking about is firepower this time. Unless you bring another G.o.d King, I doubt the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p will last.]
"I see. They are that different, huh. How about you?" Alex asked.
[I am not battle-oriented, so my offensive power is so-so. Still, I believe I can destroy the s.h.i.+p. After all, I am known as Nature G.o.ddess. I control Nature, including the Spiritual Energy around. If I gather the Spiritual Energy in one place, I can create an Element Disturbance. Of course, I don"t have the control over what element it will be, so it will depend only on what element has the highest concentration.]
"That"s pretty sick, you know." Alex twitched his eyebrows. "Just imagine creating a star inside a planet…"
[Mini star. No, it"s like a core instead? Well, I did it once, and the surface melted, turning it into a deep five hundred deep crater. And the size… Don"t ask me.]
"As expected, Rank 1 G.o.d is incredible."
[Of course, the effort is also…Ugh, I don"t want to talk about it. Anyway, with this training style of yours, I don"t think it will be that hard.]
"Well, who knows?" Alex shrugged. "Anyway, that beast is stronger than that of a G.o.d King, so I need to surpa.s.s that stage."
[Good luck. I doubt I can do it, so the rest is in your hand.]
"Yeah. Thanks." Alex nodded.
Aria kept looking at the window as she was mesmerized by the sight. It looked like she wouldn"t get bored anytime soon.
Alex only closed his eyes and waited while resting his mind before he heard another notification from the speaker as soon as the s.h.i.+p had reached its speed.
Even Aria retracted her gaze and returned to the speaker.
"We will reach our destination within five days. Make sure you don"t break anything in this s.h.i.+p because it will endanger all people inside this s.h.i.+p. We have our own surveillance system with the help of the elders, so don"t break anything unless you want to die. Fighting is also forbidden. The list of the rules is on the table in your room, so make sure you understand them first. Breaking the rule means death.
"You can use any facilities inside the s.h.i.+p and don"t cross anything that has been blocked by our elders. And don"t forget to look outside. This might be the first and last time you can look at outer s.p.a.ce. They are beautiful. There is also information about the planet in it, so you should read it. Thank you."
Alex immediately looked at the table, finding a few papers on it. He only took the planet"s information and read it. Aria also walked toward him and read it together.
Aria had been learning about color, reading, writing, and other basic stuff due to her blindness. So, it was no wonder that she could read the letter that her father gave back in an emergency situation.
"Let"s see." Alex took a glance at Aria"s face that came close to his and asked her to sit before holding it so both of them could read it together. "The planet"s name is Natec. It doesn"t have a human in it, but the planet knows that humans exist.
"It seems they are going to test our ability to adapt to this environment and understand other races. That"s good, but I think many of them would die due to racism. Anyway, next is about the rotation. One day only has six hours…A tenth of our time. This is going to be absurd because we will see the change easily."
"Six hours a day? There is a time difference?" Aria gasped and looked at Alex. "You…In your main world…Your time…was it faster or slower? What is your real age?"
Alex thought for a moment and smiled. "What do you think?"
This instantly frustrated her. Even though Alex"s world seemed to have more hours a day than her, she just couldn"t believe it after seeing how Alex advanced like none other. Even she had experienced it.
If she kept going at it, the latter looked more convincing to her.
"You are even younger than 47 years old in our world"s time?" She was shaking, slowly kneeling in front of him. "Ehm…How do I sign up as your wife? I mean it!"
Alex smiled and put his hand on her head before tightening it.
"Argh! I was kidding…Wait, no! I wasn"t kidding. Let me be your wife. I can warm your bed and take care of our children." She hurriedly made a promise. "This elder sister is good at everything."
Alex let out a long sigh and said, "If you keep doing this, should I throw you out of this room?"
She instantly turned docile and stopped moving. When Alex released her, she sat back on the chair. "Your achievement and your age are too ridiculous. You will be chased by the whole world…No, not only my world but also the worlds we have pa.s.sed. Now I can understand why you are hiding your ability."
Alex shrugged. He knew that Aria was smart enough to speculate this.
"Can I ask you this one thing…You…According to my world"s time, are you below or over 20 years old?"
Alex fell silent and wondered if he should tell her. He had expected that Aria would be able to calculate his training time and cultivation speed to know his true age, but she seemed to want to ask the question and be done with it instead of calculating it.
After thinking for a minute, he decided to answer her. "Almost."
*Hiss*
She sucked a cold breath before sighing. "How many suitors have been lining up in front of your home?"
"None. There is no one like that. You already understand my principle after seeing how I deal with Mya, so there is none."
"Fair enough. It must be hard for you. I wonder what will happen if they know that there is someone who reaches the Sword G.o.d"s level under one hundred years old."
"It will throw the world into panic. Anyway, I am planning to abandon my ident.i.ty after leaving, so you won"t know about it." Alex smiled.
"Then, how can I contact you in the future? I mean, I will join your influence… That"s not because of your age and achievement but because of your kindness to me this whole time."
"When that time comes, I will send someone to get you." Alex smiled before his gaze returned to the paper. If he continued to talk about his age, there wouldn"t be an end. "Anyway, next information. The citizens of this world will be treating you with a smile if you are their friends. Fair enough. Basic information.
"There are three suns and one hundred moons. Oh wow. The sky will be filled with this. Anyway, the world itself is an Upper World, only limited to 10-Star Martial Saints. However, it seems to be higher than the normal Upper World, so a huge portion of the population are Martial Kings and above.
"Due to the constant change of daylight, everything doesn"t look like our original world, so we need to adapt as well. Because of that, the majority of them have speed far faster than us, so we need to be careful.
"That"s quite interesting." Alex nodded and kept reading. It was a full thirty pages of basic information about the world, taking around one hour to finish.
Aria was tired after using her Sword Eyes continuously, so she decided to rest on Alex"s bed for a while since he had promised her there wouldn"t be any cultivation on the first day.
…
A few days later, they arrived at a certain Divine World where they dropped the G.o.d Rank Experts. Due to their body, the G.o.d Rank Experts didn"t need any kind of protection and entered the world without any difficulty other than burned by the atmosphere. However, their body was stronger than that, so they didn"t have any kind of injuries and landed safety.
When Alex saw that, he wondered if that would be the scene when another planet invaded Eulja, albeit he could only shake his head because he wouldn"t let something like that happen. It would be better to fight in outer s.p.a.ce than let his enemies burn his home.
As for Aria, she already went back to her room and watched this with great interest but couldn"t ask anything since Alex forbade her to enter his room until they needed to leave as well.
Another two days then pa.s.sed as a certain announcement woke everyone up.
"If you can find a big planet filled with lands, that is our destination. We won"t be parking the s.h.i.+p inside the planet, so head to the teleportation room according to the floor your room on. Find the room yourself. Those who haven"t reached the planet will be eliminated.
"And as soon as you get there, don"t go anywhere for six hours, so the elders can brief you as well. Other than that, you are free to do your own thing. The time limit is one year of this planet"s time or 360 days. Let"s go!"
Alex gradually opened his eyes, knowing that the time had arrived. Aria even knocked on his door as soon as the announcement ended as if she was anxious.
When he opened the door and let her in, she looked very eager to go to the new planet, wanting to experience living on another planet like Alex.
"Let"s go."
"It"s too crowded." Alex shook his head. "We can go after most of them go."
