Chapter 2906: Unidentified
Chapter 2906: Unidentified
Rean\'s keen eyes spotted several communication towers, similar to the ones he was familiar with. However, these towers were placed at distances that seemed impossible for his own system to cover. \'How are they managing to extend the signal range with spiritual energy at such vast distances?\' Rean\'s curiosity was piqued, and he couldn\'t help but ponder over this intriguing use of spiritual energy. His Communication System worked with Divine Energy, which was a much more powerful cultivation energy, after all.
Finally, they arrived at Gondel City, obviously the city where the Gondel Clan resided. Looking at it from above made Rean think like he was watching some sci-fi movie. Everything had modern architecture, with structures reaching as far as the clouds. At the very center of this bustling place, there was a gigantic palace that looked even more advanced.
The airship went straight for that Palace and docked at one of its towers where several other airships could be seen. Some were leaving, others were arriving, and the majority had many cultivators and mortals working on them.
\'And this is just a mortal world...\' Rean took a deep breath. He wondered how the land was where Divine Energy existed.
Roan didn\'t seem to care that much. Circuitry Formations had always been Rean\'s thing, not his. He was more concerned about how to acquire the items for a Void Shattering Pill.
Rean and Roan came out of the airship, being led by another member of the Gondel Clan. Together with them, many other kids followed, all of them being selected after the last distribution of Werdlem Stones. Rean and Roan stood up a little in their midst. It was rare for new members to be as old as them, and the fact they were twins with different hair colors didn\'t help much.
Yet, Rean and Roan noticed that many of the kids were accompanied by their parents or someone close to them like that. It was easy to guess since many of them looked very alike, obvious traits of similar DNAs. \'That\'s quite nice. To think the Gondel Clan allows the young ones to bring their relatives.\'
\'Hmph!\' Roan snorted in response. \'It looks a lot more likely that Gondel doesn\'t have any intention of raising the kids themselves. That\'s why they allowed such a thing. Besides, they don\'t need to worry about these parents intervening much since they don\'t have Werdlem Stones.\'
Rean sighed. \'So what? It is still a good thing! In our system sect, the parents had close relationships with their kids, even those parents who didn\'t cultivate. Familiar support always helps, okay?\'
\'So be it...\' Roan wasn\'t in the mood to discuss it. Back in the system sect, the parents could keep close contact with their kids. However, Roan made absolutely sure that those same parents, be they cultivators or not, would not get in the way of the hellish training he carefully prepared for the kids.
After that, they came down from the docking tower and were brought to the west side of the Gondel Clan. Smaller palaces could be found there, each one with its own number. As their group passed, the actual members looked at them with curiosity. No doubt these other young people were once newbies, just like the twins\' group.
Finally, they entered a building where various terminals could be found, and several workers operated them. Only then did the cultivator who guided the twins\' group start to talk. "Alright, I\'m Suan Gondel. From now on, you are members of the Gondel Clan. Go to one of the terminals and ask the workers there to help you register. You will be given your own room, and you will be expected to perform several tasks for the clan."
Suan took out the same communication device the twins saw Didi using. "Each one of you will receive this Portable Interlight Spectral Communication Projector. The name is quite annoying, so everyone just calls it CD, which stands for Communication Device. All you need to know is that you can check everything you need with it. Take your time to familiarize yourselves. The parents, siblings, or whoever accompanied their young kids, take your time to teach them to use the CD after you familiarize yourselves with it. Those who came alone will have to learn it by themselves."
Finally, Suan came to a conclusion. "Well, that\'s basically it. Everything else can be found on the CD. Try to not cause too much trouble in your first days." Suan then left the registration office and didn\'t care about answering any questions.
While the new kids and the rest spent their time looking around, Rean and Roan went straight for a terminal where a worker was already waiting. "Hi there. We need two CDs and a place to stay. Separated places, please."
The man looked at Rean and Roan. Although the twins were older than most kids, they were twelve years old bodies, so the man still treated them as kids. "That\'s fine, but are you two sure you don\'t want to stay with your brother? The first days alone in the Gondel Clan can be quite scary, especially for kids like you who come from poor settlements. There is no shame in relying on each other\'s support. Twins sure are nice. I can already see how close you two are. Make sure you don\'t forget your bounds."
Rean and Roan\'s eyes twitched a little. \'Who the hell would ask for this guy\'s support? Who the hell is close?\' Of course, they didn\'t say that loud. They just saved the guy\'s face in their heads and made a mental note to give him a beating if the chance presented itself in the future.
"Ahem..." Rean continued. "We would still prefer our own rooms."
"Alright," the man didn\'t insist. "If you change your minds, you can come back here and ask for shared rooms. Now, touch the sphere near the screen. It will read the energy inside your Werdlem Stone, and your registration will start."
Rean and Roan looked at each other. The twins\' Celestial System was using fake dummy souls with the stones, so it wasn\'t like they were really connected to them.
\'Can we redirect some of the stone\'s power to the sphere?\' Roan asked.
\'Should be possible,\' Rean nodded. \'But the problem is that we are not using them. We are obviously using the Control Orb as if it was the stone. Perhaps the device will read the Control Orb instead? It would be good if we could see an example of how the Werdlem Stones worked
first...\'
The twins pondered for a moment and decided to give it a try anyway. \'Whatever. If it doesn\'t work, we can think about another method later.\'
*Beep!*
-Error. Unidentified Werdlem Stone.-
The worker looked at that message with confused eyes. "Unidentified? I\'ve never seen this
error before..."
*Zush, zush, zush, zush...*
Suddenly, four cultivators appeared in the registration office in a flash and spoke loudly before even looking at the twins. "Surrender or die!"
