Chapter 2156 The Previous Events
Roan nodded. 'That was the plan initially. Too bad it fired back on us.'
Spiegel and Waremis obviously noticed Rean and Roan, much to their surprise. After all, Rean and Roan did not follow the same path as they did. Considering the defenses they have found in this ship up to this point, they were impressed the twins were even alive. Nonetheless, they also noticed Tanxan close to them. 'What is that thing?'
To explain how everyone ended up in this place, we need to go back in time. After spreading the flying puppets with the jade slips, the twins entered the Spaceship. Naturally, those who found the puppets came to the same entrance and also informed their allies about it.
However, the air ventilation ducts were plenty. How could any of them end up following the same ducts as the twins did? Especially since it had been a few hours before the first of them entered the ship. Not to mention the cultivation of the twins was too low compared to most of them, so the energy fluctuations they left behind had disappeared a long time ago.
The same thing couldn't be said by the Vruve Organization Experts, though. It's not that they left any traces behind, but that the experts at the Space-Time Realm that came into the ship after them were all well equipped. There wasn't a single one of them that didn't expect to have to follow others if necessary. Using their own methods, they were able to predict the direction which the first experts at the Space-Time Realm passed by.
Naturally, using these methods, they followed exactly the same path. That's because they believed whoever threw the flying puppets out there and told them about this entrance most likely knew more about this ship. Rather than moving around blindingly, it was better to follow those who already knew the path. As for treasures and the like, it would be up to their strength to see who would acquire them.
Of course, some of them decided to risk their luck and follow other paths on their own. It was one of those groups that activated the defense system when the twins first arrived inside the storage room. As for what happened to them, no one knows. Well, the system said the targets had been eliminated, so they are most likely dead.
One can imagine the surprise the two experts of the Vruve Organization felt when they first noticed the approach of other Space-Time Realm beings. No one was supposed to be inside the ship other than themselves. At first, they decided to stop and fight those experts. After all, they couldn't allow these nosy to disturb their plans.
As experts of the Vruve Organization, they were indeed much stronger than others at the same cultivation level. They seemed to have access to many more resources, treasures, and cultivation techniques. But that didn't mean they could kill Space-Time Realm enemies with ease.
Of course, given the time, they would have succeeded in taking care of the first group that followed them. Unfortunately for the Vruve guys, it didn't take long for even more experts from other higher realms to arrive. It was one thing to deal with two or three guys in the same cultivation realm. However, five, six, seven? Even the Vruves weren't that powerful. Especially because they lost most of their members before even passing through the ship barrier. Courtesy of the twins.
That also didn't mean they could be trifled with. In the end, as more of those experts arrived, the Vruves could only strike a deal with them. No one there believed that the Vruves didn't know what they were doing, so they would all move together. Whatever the Vruve Organization wanted to get in this ship was bound to be amazing. Perhaps it was truly the secret to surpass the Divinity Realm Cultivation.
Following that, the two experts of the Vruve Organization decided that they might use the others in their favor since they couldn't get rid of them. Not to mention that even more of them appeared as time went on, following the energy fluctuations of the first battle and using similar methods of tracking. Spiegel and Waremis got to this group in the exact same manner.
As their group moved on their own, they had to often fight the defense system of the Spaceship. Fortunately, the Vruve Organization Experts seemed to know where they were going. The defenses they found were annoying but not impossible to deal with, especially with their numbers. The Vruves were purposely avoiding the sectors with high importance as they knew such sectors would have defense mechanisms capable of causing huge casualties.
Everyone wanted to know why the Vruves knew about the areas inside the Ruins of the Stars. However, they obviously didn't tell them. Why should they? They were supposed to be the only ones here. Later they understood how these experts got to follow them. They heard about the Flying Puppets with the Jade Slips and cursed whoever spread the information. Unfortunately, no one knew who did it. For the rest of the group, it was the Vruves themselves who shared the information and were just pretending to not know anything.
However, after seeing the twins inside the Dimensional Yin Yang Reactor, Spiegel and Waremis could guess who truly told everyone about the entrance in the ship's hull. They would tell the others about that, though. But then again, they would not come by and greet the twins. After all, the twins seemed to be the only ones to get to this place through other routes. Could it be they knew something? That's what everyone who saw them thought.
