Chapter 1288 What she's up to

It seemed like someone was planning an infiltration mission on the same ship that he was going to. Lex didn't want to interfere with the war. Not only did it have nothing to do with him, but he had no understanding of the story behind it either. Was there a specific person who was in the right, or was everyone just circumstantially or politically motivated?

Regardless, Lex had also decided to stop getting involved in others problems. He was running an Inn, and while on the surface it seemed like he had the power to help others, in reality he was just creating more problems for himself. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Lex looked at the camouflage ship and estimated that it would take it one to two hours to make it to the moon shaped ship. It was best to get ahead of it. If they caused a ruckus on the ship, it might be harder to find Liz.

Instead of teleporting directly to the ship, Lex Blinked there in a series of smaller teleportations. One reason for that was that the response for the bloodline technique was so faint, he could be mistaken about the source so he needed to keep checking. Secondly, his instincts were informing him that the larger ships were more formidable than the average Earth Immortal in many senses, and that such a blatant approach would definitely be detected.

For a moment, Lex pondered over whether he could cut through the entire ship in one strike. It was pretty big, and had various defenses. Then again, he was an abnormally strong Earth Immortal, and he did not just understand the limits of his strength.

At first, he thought he did, but soon discovered that his body was still steadily becoming stronger. It seemed that Cassandra was not wrong in stating that it takes the average cultivator ten years to get used to each level in the immortal realm. That was too long for Lex - he had to discover a way to speed things up.

Lex entered his soul state and pushed right through it, though even in this state he felt a mild resistance. The protective layer of this ship was quite impressive, Lex almost considered hiring a few of the people who made this ship as workers at the Inn.

He still wasn't able to properly make use of the ship he got from the Cthulhu since it was too complicated, and required a trained staff. He was making progress on it though.

The inside of the ship consisted of countless corridors, carefully structured to fit between the numerous machines that kept the ship operational, and also provided access to each and every part of the ship, in case it ever needed repairs or access.

Lex ignored the organizational structure of the cricket-like insects, and instead focused on his bloodline signal. It was slightly stronger now that he was inside the ship, and it was moving!

Remaining within his soul state, Lex flew through the walls of the ship, avoiding detection, while at the same time trying to understand how the ship influenced laws. So far, he could not see anything that seemed like it could so much as sense the laws, let alone influence it.

It was fascinating how a race, where even the strongest of them was merely at the Golden core realm, had produced such impressive and powerful machinery.

Since he could not teleport, it took Lex nearly twenty minutes to reach the depths of the ship, where the bloodline signal was coming from. Since he saw thousands of cryogenically frozen captives, he was afraid that Liz might be one of them. Fortunately, he soon found her, and learned that it did not seem to be the case.

But, she was definitely a stowaway. He watched with amusement as Liz hid in what was effectively a broom closet for the spaceship, a wooly dog hiding right beside her. Instead of immediately revealing himself, he decided to see what she was up to.
