Chapter 1148 Sess!
Author''s Note: Unedited Chapter ---------------------
Unlike the previous times where they went in, this time they didn''t which ended up making Gustav feel a little suspicious. He soon arrived at the seating area of the spacecraft and walked along one of the Isle. Only a few substitutes and candidates were at the sitting area. Most of them were in the gaming room.
Gustav''s presence drew their attention as a lot of them had barely seen him since the spacecraft began journeying through space five days back.
"Is there a reason why we didn''t use that gateway?" Gustav questioned as he arrived at the area where Grand Commander Shion was seated.
Grand Commander Shion who had his eyes closed, replied to Gustav, "The pilots are responsible for our travel. If you wanna find out you should ask them,"
Grand Commander Shion didn''t seem bothered in anyway as he remained in ce with his eyes closed.
"Alright then... I might as well just ask them," Gustav replied before turning and starting to walk ahead.
Soon he arrived at the corridor that led to the spacecraft cockpit area and knocked twice as he reached what looked like a dead end.

"Huh? Why is he here?" The pilot questione while staring at the left where one if thw holographic screens were disyed. "We don''t know..." One of the navigators replied while staring at the disy of the dirty blonde haired young man standing in front ofwhat looked like a metallic shutter.
"Should we let him in?" The other navigator questioned.
"Hmm... I guess there is no harm in that. I will kick him out if he causes distraction," The pilot stated firmly.
One of the navigators clicked a control button and the shutter slid upwards, giving Gustav ess into the spacecraft control room.
He walked in with a calm look as usual and slightly inspected the vicinity. The ss walls in front of the pilots was a giant disy of space and how fast they were moving.
"Why are you here?" One of the navigators inquired.
"Why did we skip thest gateway?" Gustav threw a question back.
"Oh that, the gateway had a little dysfunctionality so it looked unsafe," The first navigator answered.
"Dysfunctionality? How?" Gustav asked once more.
"Chaotic dimensional energy... it could have damaged the engines of the spacecraft.We were not willing to risk it," The other navigator exined. "I see... but wouldn''t this make us slower?" Gustav questioned. "It only sets us back by twelve hours so long as we get to the second Orion gateway and make use of it," The co pilot spoke up this time.
"Interesting..." Gustav took his seat behind and watched as they navigated the way through space.
Different holographic screens with different disys were spotted. Some showed estimated routes they were supposed to take and some showed areas to avoid in space. One also disyed how much time was left till they arrived at Gxy lencia.
"Erm why are you still here kid?" The co pilot questioned. "Don''t mind me just carry on like I''m not here," Gustav answered while staring at the transparent walls up ahead.
"Uhhhh...." The pilots and navigators didn''t really know what to say after this.
They didn''t want to get any more distracted than this so they decided not to argue with Gustav over leaving or not leaving.
Since he was the only one here out of all the participants, they felt it was still okay.

In another part of space, a dark and green colored spacecraft hovered several thousand kilometers from a massive wormhole.
Within the crew members could be seen activating some weird spacesuit that covered their entire being.
"It has to be activated the moment they rm goes off. Any secondter could lead to the mission being a bust," A crew member said to another one through thems as they stood atop the hovering spacecraft. "Understood," The other crew member nodded.
He squatted with a wheel like device nted to the top of the spacecraft and began to operate this device to a desired frequency.
Wwhoooolloohhhpp~
A weird bubble suddenly encapsted the entire spacecraft in the next instant, also covering the two crew members standing atop the spacecraft. "Captain Brask has activated the fonsil... they must be close! Be ready to to activate the Wheel!" The crew member voiced to his subordinate who nodded in response.
Tiingh~ Tiinngh~ Tiinnghh~
The wheel like device nted to the top of the spacecraft beamed up and both crew members waited with keen eyes while staring at a direction in this unknown part of space.
Within the control room of the spacecraft a male with dark tentacles sprouting from his back voiced out, "It is almost twelve hours, I hope you are right Rick," "My calctions are always precise... they will appear at anytime from now," The man with a scarf covering the right side of his face replied.
The captain was about to speak out again when...
Weeeiii~Weeeiii~ Weeeiii~ Weeeiii~ ring rms suddenly began to go off.
"Activate it now!" The captain yelled through thems.
The two crew members atop the spacecraft heard themand and the one squatting quickly raised his finger to tap on the button in the middle.
At the same instant his finger was descending towards the button, a piercing starlight far ahead the massive wormhole had appeared.
This starlight looked like it was moving but with so much speed that even though it was thousands of light years away, it arrived before the wormhole in a couple of moments.
Tap!
The instant the finger of the crew member, made contact with the button, the starlight also arrived before the wormhole. In that split second, it could be seen that the starlight was actually arge spacecraft movint at incredible speed.
The wormhole suddenly made a fluttering sound as it changed color then instant this spacecraft flew into it.
Zzzhiiinnghg~
It turnedpletely violet.
"Suceess!"
"Yess!"
Within the spacecraft that had beenying in wait since, all of the crew members rejoiced with loud voices.
"You did it Ray! I knew i could count on you!" The captain voiced with a joyful tone. "We can''t celebrate yet until we confirm he is dead," Ray replied with a normal tone.
"He will be. They can''t escape there without us so they will all meet their end without our intervention anyways," The captain replied.
Ray slightly raised his left eyebrow after hearing that.
"Yes I haven''t forgotten our agreement Ray. We''re only killing the boy but we won''t harm the others," The captain voiced with a cheerful tone while tapping Ray''s shoulder repeatedly.
"Lighten up," He added.
"Hmph, this job really put a lot on me. Let''s finish it properly," Ray voiced in response.
"Let''s finish it," A smile appeared on the captain''s face as a vortex appeared in front of them which their spacecraft got sucked into.
Zhiinngg~
Upon their disappearance, the gaint wormhole returned to its original color. It was like nothing just happened a while ago as the stars in the distance remained every glowing.

(Seconds earlier)
Tiinnnn! Tiinnnn! Tiinnnn! Tiinnnn! Tiinnnn! Within the IYSOP candidates spacecraft,rms began to go off repeatedly as the entire spacecraft rumbled.
"What is going on?" This was the question escaping everyone''s lips as they abandoned whatever they were doing.
Greatmander Shion who had his eyes closed the entire time finally opened them as he sensed that something was wrong.
"Hmm?" He turned to the walls and could see that the spacecraft was speeding through a world of red.
"It should be one of the gateways, maybe its not as stable as the rest," Within the gaming room where the others had also been alerted, some of the candidates voiced out.
"No... something is wrong... this dimensional energy..." E.E had a very troubled look on his face as he voiced out.
"What is wrong?" Falco questioned while the others also stared at E.E strangely.
"It''s different from the ones we''ve been entering up till now... something is definitely wrong," E.E added while running out of the gaming room.
The others followed behind him and they all began making their way across the corridors.
Gbbll! Bam! Bam! Bam!
The spacecraft suddenly rumbled intensely causing everyone to get sent flying as they mmed into different corners of the corridor.
"Gyaarrh!" The lights flickered intensely as everyone struggled to get themselves off the ground but the spacecraft remained unstable. "All passengers should activate their spacesuit!"
"All passengers activate your spacesuit!"
A loud announcement rang out within the spacecraft as the rumblings continued. All of the candidates and substitutes quickly tapped their left chest area.
A dark spacesuit made of nanites phased out and covered their entire figure in the next instant.
The candidates that were initially getting thrown across the ce, found stability as the suit glued them to the floor of the spacecraft. With this, they began making their way forward in a bit to understand what exactly was happening.
