The starship built by Rafaro’s body didn’t have many functions. It didn’t have strong firepower or powerful defense. The only praiseworthy thing was its speed!
In its attributes, Roy gave it the definitions of Light Speed Navigation and Warp Jump. After all, in the vast space they were about to face, these two abilities were the basic abilities needed for interstellar navigation.
However, what was interesting was that these pure technological abilities didn’t cost too much to realize because the system was like this. The closer abilities were to the power of reality, the easier they were to realize. The more inclined they were to the power of fantasy, the more troubleso they were to realize.
Of course, Roy actually didn’t know much about the two abilities of Light Speed Navigation and Warp Jump. He wasn’t too clear about the true aning of these two abilities, but the benefits of the system were here. He only needed to define them, and how to implent the rest was up to the system.
After boarding the Void Seeker, the speed at which Roy and the others shuttled through the Twisting Nether increased dramatically. For the next seven days, they kept moving forward, crossing countless light-years of the Twisting Nether, and finally found so tiny moving black dots in the distant dark starry sky.
No one knew how vast the Twisting Nether was. Many of the physical laws of the physical universes that suffered the impact of Void energy had been changed. The closer to the Void rifts, the more obvious this phenonon was, so the more silent the celestial bodies were. And now that so moving objects appeared, it ant that Roy and the others were already close to the edge of the Twisting Nether.
This discovery excited Roy and the others. After all, they had been seeing the remains of various celestial bodies for the past few days. Although they looked spectacular, they would get tired of them after seeing too many. Now that the boring scene finally welcod a change, they were naturally excited.
As the starship continued forward, this change beca more and more obvious. Roy and the others discovered that the tiny moving black dots they saw earlier were actually planets of various sizes. The difference was that these planets still retained the power to rotate and so traces of orbital motion. In other words, the laws of physics had recovered to a certain extent in these places.
Rafaro carried Roy and the others and carefully passed through an incomparably vast and empty starry sky. There were no stars in the Twisting Nether because the stars had long extinguished and collapsed. The collapsed stars turned into black holes that would devour all the surrounding celestial bodies in the early stages, forming this massive empty area. This was the conclusion Roy and the others had co to during their research over the past seven days. These vast empty areas could be seen everywhere in the Twisting Nether. But because of the corrosion of the Void, these black holes that devoured celestial bodies finally lost their powerful gravitational force and beca no longer dangerous. But this only happened in the depths of the Twisting Nether. Now that they were close to the edge, it was unknown if the powerful gravitational force of the black holes would continue to remain silent, so they could only be careful.
After passing through this imnse empty area, the sharp-eyed Julia suddenly pointed to the front right of the bridge. “Darling, look at what that is!”
Roy looked where she was pointing, and his eyes narrowed. Then he quickly got Rafaro to slow down and approach.
In the dark space, an enormous wreckage was floating quietly, surrounded by countless fragnts of various sizes scattered around it. Roy got Rafaro to open the deck hatch, and he flew out of the starship and ca near the wreckage.
“This thing seems to be…” Roy observed the wreckage for a long ti and said uncertainly, “A warship?”
This pile of wreckage floating in space was clearly artificial. But because it was too ruined, it wasn’t easy to tell what it was. Roy could roughly judge what it was through so specific parts.
Is it a warship of the Burning Legion? Roy began searching the wreckage in an attempt to find so signs that could prove this. Julia and Benia couldn’t suppress their curiosity and ca out to search with him.
“This wreckage looks new!” Benia said. “In other words, it was destroyed here recently.”
“Not necessarily!” Roy shook his head. “Have you forgotten those strange broken celestial bodies? They’ve always maintained their appearance from when they were destroyed… You were in my order field, so you might not have realized that there might be a problem with the flow of ti in the Twisting Nether. This wreckage looks new, but it might have been destroyed here thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago…”
“But the appearance of artificial objects ans that intelligent life exists, right?” Julia said. “Is it the Burning Legion you ntioned?”
Roy nodded. “Actually, there’s no need to think too much about it. Only they can appear in the Twisting Nether…”
Unable to find anything useful, Roy and the others quickly gave up and returned to the starship. “Let’s keep going. What I’m most worried about is getting lost in the Twisting Nether, but the appearance of this thing at least proves that we’re heading in the right direction.”
Rafaro continued to carry everyone forward. While flying, Benia asked her doubts, “The wreckage that looks like a warship was clearly destroyed by a powerful force. Even corpses couldn’t be found. Does the Burning Legion have enemies here?”
“No, I’m afraid it was done by their own!” Roy shook his head. “The interior of the Burning Legion isn’t necessarily harmonious. After all, it’s demons, you know. In addition, that warship might not be from the Burning Legion. The space in the Twisting Nether is too fragile, and there seem to be so unlucky ones who stray into it by mistake.”
In the following days, Roy’s words were confird. They found many artificial objects in space, but most of them were trash or waste. These things seed to have been ‘discharged’ from certain worlds to the Twisting Nether, and they floated quietly in the dark space. Although there were many of them, they couldn’t even occupy an inconspicuous corner of the vast, boundless Twisting Nether.
As Roy and the others continued forward, more and more changes appeared. On the ninth day, they encountered the first creature.
It was a gigantic… void dragon!
It had a massive body and an appearance that was different from that of a true dragon. Its entire body was pitch-black like mist, but it exuded a purple light from within. When Roy and Julia found this void dragon, it was resting on an asteroid. When it discovered that the Void Seeker had intruded into its territory, this angry void dragon attacked the starship. Julia stopped it, but because it was the first ti she was facing a creature like the void dragon, she was flustered at first.
In the end, Benia also attacked it. The two of them finally caught this void dragon and dragged it onto the starship.
Everyone was very curious about the first creature they encountered in the rlWisting Nether and conducted so research on the void dragon.
Although it was called a void dragon, in fact, these creatures weren’t true Void creatures but were half-Void creatures like Auriel on Roy’s shoulder. They were a unique species born after the Void and matter compromised.
Due to having a certain Void attribute, the void dragon could survive in the Twisting Nether. Its body was in a unique state, and it would change back and forth between corporeal and incorporeal bodies. It was very unstable. Julia had suffered a loss due to this in the beginning. Several of her attacks failed to catch the void dragon’s body, and she was almost bitten by it.
After studying the void dragon for a while, everyone lost interest in it, so they threw it to Fat Tiger and let Fat Tiger, who was so bored that he wanted to scratch the floor, play with it. Although the void dragon was huge, Fat Tiger was not much worse. Fat Tiger stepped on this novel toy tightly with one foot, and his three heads took turns examining it.
With the appearance of the void dragon, the Twisting Nether gradually beca lively, and more and more creatures began to appear. Roy and the others then observed the appearance of ethereals and voidwalkers. The ethereals were mysterious humanoid creatures covered in tattered bandages. These humanoid creatures were very mysterious. They could freely travel through the starry sky and occasionally walk on so celestial bodies. When they saw the Void Seeker, these ethereals avoided it, leaving only mysterious back views for Roy and the others.
On the other hand, voidwalkers usually appeared on various planets. They were like wriggling energy creatures, emitting blue-purple halos all over their bodies. So were very large, but so were very small. After Roy discovered these voidwalkers, he didn’t capture them. He only got Rafaro to stop above a planet and observed them before leaving.
These mysterious and strange creatures lived at the edge of the Twisting Nether, and no one could figure out their origins. But without a doubt, they were all products of the convergence of Void power and the material world.
In Roy’s mories, he was actually very clear that the Twisting Nether didn’t exist in the physical universe. All the celestial bodies they had seen so far were actually isolated from the material world after being washed by Void energy. They couldn’t be separated from the material world nor the true Void, and neither side could digest them, so a unique buffer zone was born.
Now, this buffer zone had given birth to various species unique to this place…
Riding on the starship, Roy and the others continued forward. But two days later, when the Void Seeker was about to fly past the orbit of an enormous planet, Rafaro’s alarm suddenly sounded in the ship.
“Warning! High-energy reaction detected below! Great Master Osiris, we seem to have been locked on!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge dark green ball of light suddenly erupted from the dark planet below.. This ball of light left the surface of the planet, turned into a beam of light, and flew toward Roy’s starship at an extrely fast speed!
