Death… And Me

Chapter 3117  Not Worth the Trouble

Veclis quickly calmed down and immediately flew out of the restaurant... or so he wanted. Too bad the city had Anti-Flight Formations, so no one could fly. Veclis could only rush by foot.

Popon and the other cultivators got up a few seconds later. They had no intention of staying in the restaurant in case something happened. Yet, Rean and Kentucky continued on their seats, eating the food they had asked earlier. That obviously bothered Popon\'s group. "Are you going to stay put here?"

Rean looked at him while drinking some wine. "Hum? Oh, there is no need for any of us to go anywhere. He should be back soon."

"What if he gets caught?" Popon asked back.

Rean shrugged. How could his bracelet fail? He had plenty of time to learn about the circuitry formations of this world. Not to mention that Rean had Sister Orb, who could hack into formations for him to take a look as many times as he wanted. Rean was absolutely confident in his work. "As long as he doesn\'t come out in the open and proclaim to be an Unidentified Cultivator, he will not get caught by the Werdlem Empire System."

Well, Rean and Kentucky\'s confidence didn\'t mean Popon and the others felt the same. They still left the restaurant and hid. Popon, as an Elemental Transformation Realm cultivator, used his Spiritual Sense to check on the restaurant from far away. It took thirty minutes, but finally, Popon\'s Spiritual Sense caught Veclis\' presence, who was rushing back to the Restaurant. Popon didn\'t move, nor did the others. After Veclis returned, they kept hidden for another hour just to make sure nothing strange would happen. Only then did they move back into the restaurant.

Rean was still on the table, this time only drinking since he had already eaten enough. Kentucky... was sleeping... he got bored. "Oh! You are back. Veclis returned around an hour ago."

Popon ignored Rean and looked at Veclis, who seemed quite busy with his CD. "You can use a CD?"

Veclis looked at Popon, surprised for a moment. "Ah! Sorry, sorry... It\'s just that I\'ve never had the chance to use a CD before for obvious reasons. It needs the ID of a real Werdlem Stone to work, after all."

Rean got curious. "I asked a friend of mine to put me in contact with you. But if you can\'t use CDs, how do you keep in contact with each other?"

"We can\'t, but others can," Popon explained.

The only female cultivator in the group, an old woman called Cavacla, added. "Just because you have a real Werdlem Stone, it doesn\'t mean you have to accept the Werdlem Empire\'s rules. In our case, we have a few disciples who have real Werdlem Stones who use their CDs for us. It is a little risky, but it is better than being completely isolated from the world."

Popon ignored that and asked Veclis. "So, how was it? Any signs?"

Veclis unwillingly put the CD away, knowing it was time to get serious. "Nothing. The terminal easily recognized the Werdlem Stone on the bracelet as the real thing. I truly can\'t understand how it works without being connected to my Dantian, but it does. I even went to a store nearby and used this ID to buy myself a Communication Device. I have to say, asking my disciples to use it for me and using it myself is a completely different experience."

Popon, Cavacla, and the other two narrowed their eyes, feeling skeptical. However, Popon\'s expression showed determination, and he immediately put on the bracelet. Soon, he attached the Werdlem Stone that Rean had prepared for him and checked the bracelet\'s function. "It is truly weird... I can feel my Werdlem Stone\'s Energy being forced into the Bracelet before coming out."

Popon, Cavacla, and the other two narrowed their eyes, feeling skeptical. However, Popon\'s expression showed determination, and he immediately put on the bracelet. Soon, he attached the Werdlem Stone that Rean had prepared for him and checked the bracelet\'s function. "It is truly weird... I can feel my Werdlem Stone\'s Energy being forced into the Bracelet before coming out."

Rean nodded. "I couldn\'t risk letting your real ID energies leak, after all. However, these bracelets are still an early version I worked on recently. They aren\'t indestructible by any means. If anything, they are somewhat fragile. If you find yourself in a situation where you must fight, make sure to send the bracelets into your Spatial Rings first."

Popon nodded and rushed out of the restaurant. He had to check it by himself. Cavacla and the others didn\'t take long to follow suit. To make things safer, they all went in different directions and used different terminals in different locations far away from each other.

Nonetheless, they were all back in the same restaurant room an hour later, all of them now with their own CDs in hand. Just like Veclis, they seemed quite entertained by the CDs\' network access.

Then, Popon noticed Rean\'s smile and felt weird. "Ahem... Alright, I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say it works. By the way, how did you do it?"

"That\'s a little secret of mine," Rean didn\'t speak. He couldn\'t, to be more precise. The bracelet\'s functions basically imitate the Celestial Soul System\'s ability to fake its own energy with a real Werdlem Stone. Rean obviously wouldn\'t speak about the system to these newcomers.

"Can you make more of them?" Popon asked right after. He knows many other cultivators, demon beasts, spirits, etc, that are also outside of the Werdlem System Network. Such bracelets would be of great use to the Unidentified Werdlem Stone Cultivators of the continent.

However, Rean immediately refused the idea. "I can make more, but I won\'t."

"Why?" Everyone asked at the same time. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Rean sighed. "I\'m only one person, while the Inquisiton Hall is a behemoth standing on the top of the food chain on this planet. There are plenty of Formations Masters on this planet under their control who could analyze my bracelets and make proper countermeasures. Simply put, once these bracelets of mine are found out, it will be the end for them."

Following Rean, the group sighed together. "In the end, it is not worth the trouble..."
