Chapter 519: 169. Huh?! Player?! _3
Holy shit?!
The Undying?!
Individuals who keep resurrecting?
Comini thought Noland Lee was in awe of the Undying’s uniqueness, and continued:
“The Undying are incredibly curious and have a keen interest in everything in the starry sky; they even pilot small spacecraft to explore the stars alone. Although no one in the Ulnas Circle has really seen the Undying, every extraterrestrial being who has communicated with the Ulnas Circle has expressed their astonishment at them. They are a group of extraordinary beings willing to do anything for any other extraterrestrial lifeforms as long as they are rewarded. They seem to have an unknown means of communication and often gather at specific locations without warning. The consequences of offending the Undying are dire. They are a group of vengeful extraordinary individuals who will take advantage of their ability to continuously revive and use any means to retaliate against their enemies.”
Comini emphasized:
“If you offend such an extraterrestrial creature, you will truly never be able to step out of our world in this lifetime. As soon as an Undying finds your traces, other Undying who hold grudges against you will quickly get the news. Now you know, right? Leaving a way out for the invaders of the extraterrestrial space pollution is not inefficiency or cowardice, but leaving a way out for ourselves.”
Comini sighed softly under her mask and said earnestly:
“In the journey through the stars, strength is second only to connections. This is a lesson countless predecessors of the star witches have learned through blood and life.”
“Cough, cough…” Noland Lee coughed and asked:
“Yes, Lady Comini, I will remember your words. I have indeed become somewhat arrogant due to the expansion of my strength. I will learn my lesson… Speaking of which, what other features do the Undying have?”
The first part of that sentence was Noland Lee putting on an act, but that last question was his real focus.
He desperately needs more information now to determine the relationship between the Undying and the Players.
“They have versatile thinking, peculiar behavior, and speak an abstruse language. They can also measure their strength and physical fitness using data.”
Comini shrugged and continued:
“Of course, the most significant feature is their ability to keep resurrecting. A playful extraterrestrial lifeform once conducted an experiment where it killed an Undying more than 300 times. The Undying still managed to resurrect and had not lost their memory. Because of this experiment, the extraterrestrial was hunted by the Undying for a long time and eventually settled the matter by compensating with a large amount of star minerals. This rumor has spread along with the Undying’s reputation, even reaching the star witches of our world. You can imagine how powerful the extraordinary trait of reviving after death is.”
Whether the Undying are strong or not, I don’t know, but aren’t they “Players”?
What’s going on here?!
Noland Lee’s heart surged, and he opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say…
But honestly, if the “Players” – the fourth catastrophe – were integrated into the extraterrestrial lifeform system, their extraordinary trait of continuous reincarnation could be explained without any disharmony or contradiction.
So, are these so-called “Undying” actually Players?
Is the “abstruse language” they use the same one Noland Lee knows?
Noland Lee took a deep breath and tried to calm his pounding heart.
“If you want to know about the extraterrestrial space, you can purchase information from Professor Erica. The currency for transactions can be Ulnas Gold Coins or Silent Mana.” Comini said:
“I’m going to the Cat Society Manor to interrogate the Shadow Demon. Thank you for cooperating with my investigation. I look forward to hearing the good news of you joining us.”
With a tap of Comini’s left foot, she turned into white smoke with a poof and disappeared in front of Noland Lee.
Noland Lee looked around, retracted the Alchemy Traps he had set up as a precaution, and summoned Denise Green to take him away.
The single cottage in Sector 7.
Inside the study room on the second floor.
Noland Lee sat by the desk, pinching his brow with his fingertips.
The palm-sized Sword of Silence lay on the tabletop. The light in the room reflected off the gray, uneven surface of the stone dagger.
Denise Green rested her chin on her hands, propped up on her elbows on the desk, and said gently to Noland Lee:
“I think it would be great for you to join the ‘Silent Maiden’. Professor Erica’s willingness to change the entrance conditions and pledges for you is a sign of how much she values you. Think about it, with the identity of a member of the ‘Silent Maiden’, you can live openly on the island. Although all the members of the ‘Silent Maiden’ are female and your presence would attract extra attention, it would still be better than constantly disguising yourself with a fake identity. However, I won’t force you to join the ‘Silent Maiden’. Once we arrive at the Suman Archipelago, you can try the Deep Sea Academy and maybe join the Hotams. If you don’t want to join any wizard forces, that’s fine too. I’ll cover for you~”
Noland Lee listened to Denise Green’s playful tone, opened his eyes, let go of his pinched brow, and smiled at her.
He is not struggling about joining the ‘Silent Maiden’ anymore.
He is worried about the “Players” who are suspected to be “Undying”.
On his Panel Information, there was no “extraordinary trait” to revive after death, nor was there the label “Identity: Player” or “Identity: Undying”. He was without a doubt a Traveler who had crossed over into the body of “Noland Lee Jarvis” and not an Undying.
