Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1466 - Teleport Issues

The group quickly entered the city, which didn't really have a gate or anything like that. The city was well maintained, though. Guards could be seen in almost every busy street, plus they were both from humanoid races and a few aquatic demon beasts in human form. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovelFɪre.net

Falangia looked at all of that when she remembered something. "Right! Rean, how does this city compare to the cities in Treavin Continent? Can you see problems everywhere as well?"

Rean shook his head, saying, "At the very least, I can't see anyone bullying others, starving people, or anything like that. Of course, we're in the busy part of the city. If we head to the poorer sides, we probably will see some of those."

Falangia was happy to hear that, though. "That's great! It's already several times better than Dry Sky City at the very least."

Rean then looked at Roan and asked, "So, what will we do? Should we look for a teleport formation?"

Roan nodded. "Yes. We're just passing by Pol Continent. Now that we have the small Kibin, we can head straight to the Continental Barrier on the other side."

It was then that Rean remembered something, so he focused his Divine Sense on Luan's forehead, asking, 'By the way, do you have a name?'

The small Kibin said that it would hear their Divine Senses if they did that, so it immediately answered. Of course, only Rean's group could hear it. 'Alan.'

'Alan?' Rean was quite surprised to hear that as he thought to himself. 'That's the name of a friend of mine back on Earth...' Well, due to Rean's condition back on Earth, he didn't really think of Alan as a 'friend.' However, Alan definitely did. It's just that Alan thought Rean to be the silent type. 'Sigh... I wonder how his life went. In Earth's time, I've been out for almost a year already, after all. Not to mention the time shift during the entrance into the Realm of Gods.'

Rean then nodded, asking, 'Alan, how are you doing?'

'I'm fine. I've recovered quite a bit of my energy already. Then again, it's quite unfortunate you guys didn't die in the Continental Barrier. If you did, I would be free now,' Alan said without a care in the world.

Rean's mouth twitched in response. 'That's quite dark, you know? Oh well, it seems like you can't go against your father's orders anyway. We're counting on you when we reach the continental barriers.'

It didn't take long for the twins to inquire about the Formation Guild in Utari City. Considering how big the city was, they definitely would have one. Inside, Rean's group could see many cultivators and quite a few aquatic demon beasts going everywhere. It was a very big guild.

On the counter, Rean immediately asked for information about the teleport formations. "Hello, friend. Are the teleport formations available for use?"

The attendant was surprised by Rean's question. However, after checking the clothes of Rean's group, he seemed to have understood something. "Oh, you guys came from Treavin, right? At the very least, you're not from Pol Continent for sure. Otherwise, you wouldn't have asked such a question."

Roan didn't know what to say. He just asked a question about teleport formations. How come their identity was already found out just because of that? "Ahem... would you mind explaining?"

The attendant acted pretty much like the man the twins found at the back of the island. Even though he knew the twins' group came from outside, he didn't seem to care much about that. "There are no such things as teleport formations in the Pol Continent. Well, it's not like there aren't, but rather, you won't find them in the islands. Only aquatic demon beast cities would have them, and even those are very rare."

"What?!" Rean was taken aback. One must remember that Pol Continent was at least three times as big as Huring Continent. If it turned out that the twins couldn't use teleport formations, then they would spend years traversing it. "You can't be serious. There has to be a way to move faster from one sea to another, right? Otherwise, how do the experts move?"

The attendant then explained, "It's exactly because the Sacred Undersea Kingdom doesn't want humanoid races moving around that teleport formations aren't available. This isn't a secret, so I'll tell you this. Most of the continents around are controlled by humanoid races. It's not common to find continents around this area where demon beasts have the power. The Sacred Undersea Kingdom knows that they're surrounded by enemies from all sides, especially due to the Pol Continent's size. Naturally, they try to keep everything under control, and one of the ways to do that is limiting the construction of teleport formations."

"This..." The twins didn't know what to do now. "Is there no other way to teleport to the other side of the continent?"

The attendant shrugged his shoulders, saying, "As I said, you can find teleport formations in a few rare undersea cities. However, not only is the closest undersea city extremely far away, humans are prohibited from using them. There might be some exceptions, but I doubt you'll get one of them."

The attendant then looked at the queue behind Rean before asking, "Now then, if you don't have any other request, leave the queue and let me do my work."

"Oh... right. Have a good day..." That's all Rean could say before his group left the queue.

Outside the guild, Rean and Roan talked about it. "So, what now? Should we just bring Kentucky out and head to that undersea city?"

Roan sighed and nodded. "What else can we do? It's not like we have any other choice. The worst part is that we don't even know if we'll be able to use their teleport formation or not."

Rean couldn't help but ask, "Perhaps we didn't get a good route. Then again, why didn't Erithean mention it?"

Roan shook his head. "Perhaps at his level, teleport formations are useless, so he didn't need them when he came here."

"That's probably it.." Rean could only agree in the end.
