Death… And Me

Chapter 2686 Get There

Chapter 2686  Get There

"Fuck!" The Semi-Celestials cursed out loud as they looked at the place where the enemies disappeared. With their perception, they knew those distortions connected somewhere outside this Wonderland, so there was nothing they could do anymore.

Kafan noticed something, though. He quickly grabbed a Spatial Ring... Was it a Spatial Ring? It looked very different from the Spatial Rings they had in the Realm of Gods. Nonetheless, he kept it.

Following that, they all looked at Roan. They wanted to know how Roan found out about the origin of those experts in the first place. Of course, before that, they had other things to do. The Semi-Celestials quickly let go of the Chaos Energy they spread around, the one they used to block the Golden Drohares from calling more Wonder Beasts. That truly spends a lot of their own reserves, and they will need to recover for a while to replenish it all.

Also, they were still in the midst of a fight against the Wonder Beasts. The other cultivators killed a few while they fought the Golden Drohares, but the number they engaged was indeed quite high, so they needed help.

Kafan took a higher position and began to issue orders as the Semi-Celestials gave support. They also retreated fast as they fought since they were indeed too close to the tower. If another group came in their direction, things would get difficult. Only after going back to a safer position and killing all the remaining Wonder Beasts, except for a few that escaped, did they have time to relax.

As the lower-level experts absorbed the Wonder Beasts' Chaos Laws and Energy, the Semi-Celestials and the twins' group gathered to discuss what had just happened.

"What the hell was that? How come experts from outside the Universe are already here? We were supposed to still have a few years," Black Locust quickly complained.

Sansara shook his head. "Forget that. They are here. It's that simple. What I want to know is how did you find about them," he said while looking at the twins.

Roan and Kafan looked at each other and nodded. "We guessed this could happen when the first attacks of Wonder Beasts occurred. You remember how a group of them suddenly teleported just like the Loporrits, right? It seemed way too much of a coincidence that they blocked our retreat path. After all, Wonder Beasts weren't supposed to have intelligence. Would they truly think about using a pincer attack on us? We found it hard to believe."

Gragatou narrowed his eyes. "And why take this long to tell us?"

Sophia could already guess why. "I see. If we were told about it, we might have looked suspicious, trying to find these 'traitors' that we didn't even know if they really existed."

"That's correct," Kafan and Roan nodded. "If there were no such a thing, then it was pointless to shift everyone's focus from the battles against the Wonder Beasts. That would only increase the losses."

Kafan continued. "From there onward, I took a safer approach and waited for everyone's Chaos Cultivation to increase to a satisfactory level. Then I spread the net, trying to fish the traitors out. That was the perfect opportunity. Our distance from the other mobs of Wonder Beasts and their numbers would be perfect if the traitors could catch all their attention."

"Very well," Gragatou understood the logic and accepted that the secret was necessary. "However, how did you know that releasing our Chaos Cultivation and spreading it would prevent them from controlling the Wonder Beasts further away? Even though I helped with that, I couldn't feel anything and only felt like a waste of energy. If they didn't reveal themselves, I would have said you were messing up with me."

"That's us," Roan explained. "It's the Chaos Cultivation the Loporrits helped us achieve. Thanks to it, we were able to feel a slight difference in the Golden Drohares Chaos Cultivation compared to the rest of us. Of course, we couldn't accuse anyone based on that alone, and it was truly just a small difference. We decided it was much better to wait and see if we could catch them acting instead. Besides, we didn't know if there were more of them around. Fortunately, the plan worked well. If there were any other traitors, they would also have revealed themselves since we didn't specifically target anyone when we blocked their attempt to call more Wonder Beasts."

Everyone understood the logic, although some of the Semi-Celestials didn't like the idea of being kept in the dark. That was especially so for the Vruves, Bracius and Xude. Nonetheless, the fact is that Kafan and the twins' plans worked, and they prevented a calamity.

"Fine!" Bracius reluctantly accepted the explanation. Right after, he looked at the Loporrit. Bunbun was still there, looking in the direction of the Spatial Distortions that the enemies used to escape. "Hey, bunny. How come you only helped now?"

Bunbun glanced at him and snorted. "Hmph! Our Loporrits Race has some rules that we can't intervene with what happens here. The twins' group was an exception because they got into a deal with us. However, these experts coming from outside of the Universe were a threat we couldn't ignore. That's all."

Bunbun then turned around, disappearing in thin air like all the Loporrits they met did in the past. He obviously wasn't in the mood to answer any more questions.

"I hate this!" Bracius complained, but there wasn't much he could do. The difference in power in this Wonderland between him and Bunbun was simply impossible to bridge.

Black Locust wondered. "Just what are those Loporrits expecting from us. It feels like they want us to reach the tower, but why?"

Noticing a few eyes coming in their group's direction, Rean shook his head. "It's like I told you all, we have a deal where we can't say anything. The only thing I can confirm is that they have no malicious intentions toward us. If anything, they need our help instead. Besides... is anyone here going to give up entering the tower?"

Every single Semi-Celesital there shook their heads. Regardless of the reasons, they all wanted to enter it.

Finally, someone looked in Kafan's direction. "Alright, Kafan, I saw you got a Spatial Ring from those guys. What is inside?"

Kafan nodded. "I was going to get there."
