Chapter 1108 - The Direction of Order (2/2)
A dazzling radiance streaked across the night sky. Everyone looked up and was instantly stunned. In the near distance, an enormous, black dragon was engaged in battle with several beings clad in black!
“Oh-no-no, that’s Her Highness Erin.”
Looking at this scene, Lydia couldn’t help but feel baffled, yet no one responded to her. Instead, everyone including her widened their eyes and observed the battle. Even though Erin was engaging in the battle with those mysterious enemies midair, Rhode and the others were ‘By the God’ beings and Creator Dragons. This distance to them was almost the same as one watching high-definition video on full screen. Shortly after, the battle between Erin and the mysterious beings clad in black was fully displayed before their eyes, including how Erin went on to slaughter the one who escaped, and how she was eventually caught by the mysterious, grid-like net. Looking at this scene, Rhode knitted his brows because he couldn’t be more familiar with that grid-like net. Whenever his system leveled up, this thing would appear and scan the surroundings.
Could they be players too? That shouldn’t be possible…
“Big Brother, something isn’t right.”
At this moment, Rhode heard his younger sister’s voice. But unlike the usual, gentle voice, he felt urgency and anxiousness this time. But before he figured out what she meant, she continued.
“Big Brother, please hold onto the black pole. I think I can almost understand how the enemies caused Miss Erin’s disappearance.”
“Oh?”
Rhode hesitated no more. He hurried to the black pole in large strides, sized it up, and extended his arm to hold it.
“———!”
The instant he clutched the pole, his vision blurred and a string of data emerged before him constantly as though searching for something. However, the entire image was constantly twisting and trembling like it was disrupted. Shortly after, the string of data flashed across and disappeared.
“I see…”
His younger sister’s voice rang in his head again. But this time, she sounded rather uncertain.
“Big Brother, I figured out how Miss Erin went missing. There is a device in this black pole that can activate the plane channel for a short time. According to what we just witnessed, it seems like the enemies ambushed Miss Erin, but her strength was far more powerful than they had imagined. That was why the last survivor had no choice but to activate the plane channel. Miss Erin apparently didn’t anticipate it, so she was dragged into it by the enemy.”
“Doesn’t that mean we don’t have a way to rescue her?”
Rhode shrugged, at the same time observing three seconds of silence in tribute to Erin. He knew what the plane channel was; it was like a small-scale teleportation door. Even though he didn’t experience it personally, he clearly knew that its ultimate destination was random. Who knew where Erin had been brought to?
“No…”
But this time, his younger sister’s voice was filled with more doubt.
“… Big Brother, according to my observation, the destination of this plane teleportation is fixed! It is connected to a specific point in the outer plane, so it won’t transport her to a random location. But… I’ve never seen this function before. Besides, the method of activation on this black pole isn’t one that we’re familiar with. As of now, the only thing I found out is that the black pole stores energy and is able to activate the skill automatically, which links to the plane channel. Not only that…”
His younger sister hesitated, before continuing.
“… but the data that disrupted Canary’s and Bubble’s power seems to also be from there.”
