Chapter 1462  A Tree?

Author's Note: Do Not Unlock Yet

---------------------

The endearing term 'BEAUTY IS DANGEROUS' had never been more true until now. Despite how marvelous the sight was, anyone and anything would be obliterated in an instant should they come this close.

The journey through the violent net of energy lasted for almost an entire day. By the time they successfully navigated through, Gustav had expended a lot of energy.

Fortunately, they were now in the clear so it was all worth it.

"We're out of the dead man zone," Gustav let out a heavy breathe after announcing.

"That was both enlightening and terrifying at the same time," Ria stated with a mesmerised tone.

"I agree... truly never felt anything like that in my life... all those colors..." Aildris voiced with a look of interest.

He wished he could have absorbed them but he knew it would mess with their navigation so he couldn't risk it.

"At least, it's gonna be smooth sailing from henceforth," Endric stated from up ahead.

"I'm not so sure about that," Gustav suddenly voiced with a ominous tone.

"Huh?"

"What is that?"

"Is that a...?"

"Yes it's a person," Gustav confirmed their suspicions on what laid out ahead.

Hundreds of kilometers before their s.p.a.cecraft was a figure floating in outers.p.a.ce without so much as a s.p.a.ce gear or anything to help them breathe.

They just floated in place with a glowing Crimson hair the looked like the branches of a tree.

This person commanded their attention due to these multiple traits but Gustav wasn't interested in knowing who they might be.

He pushed the throttle forward after the s.p.a.cecraft engines cooled off a bit, causing them to sail in a straight line with immense speed.

Common sense told them that a being floating and breathing in s.p.a.ce with a glowing hair, wasn't a weak person. It was better to leave now than to be sorry later.

In just an instant, they had crossed light years of distance, leaving the unknown far being behind...

...Or so they thought...

Dhin~ Dhin~ Dhin~ Dhin~

< Hostile Force In Pursuit >

< Activating Energy s.h.i.+eld >

Alarms suddenly began blurring within the s.p.a.cecraft as a silver colored energy s.h.i.+eld appeared around it.

"What the h.e.l.l?!" Ria yelled in bafflement.

"It's that person," Endric stared at the holographic projection that displayed the rear position of their s.p.a.cecraft.

Not too distant behind them was a crimson blur streaking across s.p.a.ce with unparalleled speed. Upon closer look, this Crimson blur happened to be the same person they had spotted after getting out of the 'dead man zone'.

Endric and Ria couldn't believe their eyes as they saw how quick the humanoid shaped being was flying. They were moving faster than the speed of light and yet, it was starting to catch up with them.

Whoever it was, they were definitely no ordinary being. Gustav couldn't chase a s.p.a.cecraft and catch it up at his current level of strength so this person was no doubt more powerful since only Miss Aimee could successfully pull something like this off.

"Buckle up!" Gustav yelled while tapping on multiple b.u.t.tons at a time.

He was preparing to activate hyperjump since it was becoming difficult to outsized the being currently in pursuit.

"What If is friendly?" Ria questioned from behind.

"Maybe I can kick you out so you two can have a friendly chat then... far from the rest of us," Gustav retorted with a tone of seriousness.

Ria; "..."

"I don't know what he wants but I certainly don't want to stick around to find out," Aildris stated.

"Me neither," Gustav added.

"Jump now!" Endric suddenly yelled.

Gustav didn't need to be told twice before he pushed the hyperjump b.u.t.ton.

Zhhiinnnnn~

Their s.p.a.cecraft suddenly pivoted forward like a needle cutting through the fabric of s.p.a.ce. They vanished in the next moment and reappeared in another part of s.p.a.ce, completely void of the presence of the Crimson being.

"That's a day worth journey," Gustav announced that they had put a lot of distance between themselves and the hostile.

"So we can get to our destination in fourdays then?" Ria questioned.

"That is right. I was hoping we wouldn't have to use hyperjump but it couldn't be helped this time," Gustav mumbled with a cautious look.

"I wonder who that person is and what their objective could be," Aildris bore an expression of contemplation as he spoke.

"SJ," Gustav called out.

Zing~

SJ appeared in the middle of the s.p.a.cecraft gleaming intensely.

A red robe materialised into existence and covered its surface to dim the immense brightness.

"Did you get a clear view?" Gustav questioned.

SJ proceeded to create a holographic screen for everyone to see.

On this screen was a clear image of the being they had just encountered a while back.

It's full structure was on display for them to see.

"It's one of the faceless... I should have known," Gustav nearly facepalmed.

"The faceless?" Aildris and Ria voiced in obliviously.

"One of three beings who are the last of their kind in the entire universe," Endric briefly explained.

"Are they like very strong?" Ria questioned.

"Obviously... all three of them have apparently been in existence for millennium. And since they are rare, they have tried siring more of their species for a long time to no avail," Endric added.

"So what would they want with us?" Ria asked.

"More like what would they want with him?" Aildris turned to Gustav's direction.

"Huh?" Ria was still confused.

"The thing is... one of them is very obsessed with bearing more of their species that they would take any job so long as the reward gave information on the subject of interest. They could be killers, saviours, fighters, protectors..." Endric paused at this point.

"Or even bounty hunters," Aildris chipped in.

"Yes or even bounty hunters, so long as whatever the reward is has information regarding what they require to create new offsprings. It makes it very rare for them to accept any job, not because millions of people across the galaxy aren't trying to acquire their a.s.sistance on personal matters but because meeting their requirements is borderline impossible," Endric kept explaining.

"Which means someone must have met their requirements this time... most likely someone from the alliance," Aildris bore a look of understanding at this point.

"But how did they find us? It was almost like that faceless one knew we were coming... it was waiting for us," Aildris wasn't the only one interested in the answer to this question. Ria was just as curious.

"You see... the abilities of a faceless one is... how do I put it," Endric paused while holding his chin.

"Unpredictable," Gustav stated.

"Yes unpredictable," Endric nodded.

"How so?" Aildris asked.

Endric stood to his feet and pointed at the holographic projection that displayed the faceless one image, "Notice the branch like hair?"

Just like nets, there were little s.p.a.ces in between... but were these s.p.a.ces large enough for their s.p.a.cecraft to fit.

"How is the s.p.a.cecraft going to get through that?!" Ria yelled in terror.

It was very obvious that the little s.p.a.ces were not wide enough for them to pa.s.s through without getting obliterated.

To make matters worse, the throngs of violent torrents were moving and swimming almost like they were alive.

"That's the trick, it can't," Gustav answered Ria.

"Then how are we going to survive?" Ria didn't know what Gustav playing at here but he internally decided to curse Gustav if he said, 'they won't'.

"We will," Gustav drove head on for it, unwavering in the slightest.

Unlike Ria, Aildris wasn't bothered because he had full trust in Gustav. However, he was just as intrigued as Ria was about Gustav's plans.

"Can't we just hyperjump through it?" Aildris inquired.

"It won't work. The energy torrent are like strings... no matter how strong the hyperjump is, the moment it goes through, the violent energy will keep pulling it back to its center until it runs out of juice. Once that happens and the s.p.a.cecraft rematerialises, we will be toast," Gustav explained.

"Ohhh," Aildris nodded in apprehension.

"Endric, take command," Gustav suddenly got up and moved towards the back.

Aildris seat moved to the middle of the control panel and he began to steer forward.

At this moment, they had directly arrived before the net of energy and just as it seemed like they were about to collide with it...

[ Atomic Manipulation Has Been Activated ]

Zzhiinnn~

Gustav's whole figure emitted a milky glow that spread across the entirety of the s.p.a.cecraft.

Thwwrrriihhh~

The s.p.a.cecraft flickered multiple times before dematerialising atom by atom.

The s.p.a.cecraft became see through along with everyone within as they phased through the net of thronging destructive energy.

The strings were pa.s.sing through them like they were in astral form as they cruised through.

Endric navigated the s.p.a.cecraft to increase in speed while Gustav made sure to concentrate on keeping things this way.

They still had a long way to go within this world of destructiveness but couldn't deny that it looked quite amazing. The spark of colors and ripples of cosmic energy that merged into one another, created a mesmerising display for them to feast their eyes on.
