Death… And Me

Chapter 2145 Guardian

Boom!

A door exploded, leaving behind a gaping hole. Outside, a chaotic mix of Light and Dark Elements, accompanied by Divine Origin Energy, swirled in a mesmerizing display. Scattered across the ground were the remains of several robots, reduced to mere scraps.

Zush, zush, zush!

Three figures emerged from the newly formed breach. Stepping through the debris, they surveyed their surroundings with unwavering determination. Ignoring the rapid repairs being carried out by an auto-repair system, they remained on high alert, scanning for any signs of additional robots or defense mechanisms. Naturally, these three individuals were none other than Rean, Roan, and Luan.

Rean held a device provided by the spaceshipʼs system and addressed it directly. ”Hey, system, how far away is Cryogenic Pod 401349X?”

The system wasted no time in responding. -The room with Cryogenic Pod 401349X is located 153 meters to the left.-

The spaceship they found themselves in was colossal. Their journey through Chamber 13R alone had taken over five long hours. Most of the chamber was in ruins, making it nearly impossible to navigate. The remaining paths were also guarded by the weapons system, posing a significant challenge.

The biggest issue they faced was that not all the robots or wall-mounted lasers had been damaged or cut off from their supply of Divine Origin Energy. Along their path, they encountered numerous of those defenses in pristine condition, making their mission even more difficult. However, the twins had a unique advantage—they could use their Fused Energies without restraint. Even if it meant expending large amounts of energy, they were willing to do so.

Whenever they faced imminent danger, they unleashed their Fused Energies, combining their powers to overcome their foes. Once their targets were defeated, they sought refuge in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. There, they used Divine Stones to replenish their energy, converting it back into Divine Origin Energy, enabling them to continue using their fused powers.

While recovering in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, they decided to give a name to their fused energy. After all, it looked weird to call it Fused Energies all the time. It wasnʼt meant to have any deep meaning, though; it was just an easy-to-remember name. Inspired by the light sky blue color resulting from their fusion, they simply called it Sky Energy. 

Rean glanced to the left and saw no obstacles in their path. ”My Sky Energy is still pretty much full. Should we keep going? I canʼt see any of those robots or the annoying lasers.”

Roan nodded in agreement. ”Letʼs keep moving.”

ʼWait!ʼ Luanʼs message reached the twins through their Divine Sense, causing them to halt. ʼThereʼs something right behind that door. The amount of Divine Origin Energy emanating from it is nearly five times greater than any of the robots weʼve encountered so far.ʼ

Rean turned to Luan and asked, ”Could it be the living being trapped inside Cryogenic Pod 401349X?”

Luan shook his head. ”Itʼs not. That concentration of Divine Origin Energy doesnʼt match what youʼd find in a Dantian or a Demon Core. Itʼs probably one of those defense robots or something similar.”

Roan shrugged. ”Well, we wonʼt know until we see it. Luan, keep an eye out.”

Luan nodded, maintaining his distance from the twins while scanning their surroundings for any normal robots or wall-mounted weapons.I think you should take a look at

With caution, Rean and Roan approached the door, ready to force their way through, just as they had done with the previous doors in Chamber 13R. However...

*Vuuuuuuu...*

To their surprise, the door swung open effortlessly. It was obvious that it had not checked their ID cards, though. Nevertheless, they remained on guard, curious to uncover what awaited them on the other side.

Before them stood a slender metallic robot, distinct from the floating poles they had encountered until now. Resembling a star-shaped figure barely a meter tall, it defied gravity with its four elongated blade-like limbs. Its two leg-like blades delicately balanced on their tips, while its triangular head housed a lens that resembled a camera.

The twins squinted, sensing a greater danger emanating from this robot compared to any they had encountered thus far. Yet, the star-shaped automaton remained motionless. ”Did this robot open the door for us?” Rean pondered aloud, considering that none of the previous doors had unlocked on their own in Chamber 13R.

Roan shrugged, unaware of the robotʼs intentions. ”Who knows? Just be careful. Thereʼs something off about it.”

Preferring not to rush, the twins lingered outside the room, observing the robot for any signs of activity. Other than the lens tracking their movements, the automaton seemed almost inactive.

Growing impatient, Roan decided to take action. He swiftly gathered his Dark Element, infused it with a hint of Divine Origin Energy, and conjured a Dark Arrow in his hand. Without hesitation, he released the arrow, sending it hurtling towards the robot.

*Zush!*

In a split second, the arrow reached the center of the robot, poised to strike. However, their plan quickly took a turn a turn for the worse.

*Swish!*

The twins could barely register what happened next. Roanʼs Dark Element Arrow was effortlessly sliced in two, cleaving it from top to bottom. The arrowʼs energy dissipated instantly as if it had never existed.

”That was fast!” Rean and Roan exclaimed, taking a deep breath. They immediately understood that even if they burned their Nascent Souls, they might still not be able to match the speed at that the robotʼs blade just moved.

[No, itʼs not just speed,] interjected Sister Orbʼs voice in their minds. [That thing is quite fast, no doubt. But you should be able to match it if you go all out. However, this thing in front of you can also manipulate time, much like an expert in the Space-Time Realm. And it doesnʼt seem to have the same limitations as Spiegel did when he wielded Time Power.]

Luan confirmed from a safe distance, ”Sister Orb is right, Father. This robotʼs Divine Origin Energy hasnʼt diminished, even after using Time Power. Be careful!”

The twins nodded in agreement. Fortunately, the robot showed no signs of leaving the room, alleviating their immediate concerns. However, the challenge of gaining entry remained. They pondered their next move, wondering how to get rid of this thing.
