Chapter 796: Alfa

Chapter 796: Alfa

The known universe is so vast that a single planet is like a speck of dust on a

desert plain.

A total of 9 realms, three of them ruled by the humans, three other by the elves,

while the remaining was considered the neutral realm. The latter consisted of

thousands of diverse lifeforms and species; neither humans nor elves.

And right now, what Emery saw through the window was the embodiment of

that neutral realm.

Alfa, commonly known as City of Thousands Planets.

It was a massive ying station that oated in outer space. It was so massive

that it had become the biggest and the most advanced city in the neutral

realm's space. However, its appearance was far from the norm, to say the least.

From a far the place appears to be where all sorts of things gathered together

without any rules, but as soon as the Ouroboros ship gets closer to it, Emery

starts seeing the artistry of the construct.

Emery expressed this opinion to Silva and apparently, the girl said that Alfa

didn't always look like this at the start.

In fact, its massive and irregular appearance was the result of the continuous

growth that the ying station underwent every year, as it passed through the

galaxy and subsequently became a permanent residence of various races.

It had traveled for more than 10,000 years throughout the universe, with a

current population of 30 million which consisted of around 3000 species and

lifeforms from all over the universe.

There were over 5,000 languages spoken, not counting the various computer

languages. All came from the various forms of life that inhabit it have been

integrated with each other. Making Alfa a giant treasure trove of myriad

knowledge and culture,

Alfa is an extraordinary city that is divided into four main regions with their

own characteristics. The rst region known as Quatic is a submerged quarter of

the city that lies under the ying station, which allowed it to be the home to

800 species and lifeforms that live in various types of liquid.

The other region, known as Caelum, is gaseous lands mostly dominated by a

species called Azon, an arm-length race with heads bigger than their bodies.

This region was well-known for its picturesque scenery.

The third region of the city is Ligentia, which is inhabited by a large colony

called Oolite. They were born from the consciousness of a machine and the ones

who governed the information, technology, nance and banking sector of Alfa.

And the last region, which has the largest area compared to other regions, is

known as Urbs. It was located in the pressurized atmosphere, with more than

10 million human populace, a million elves, and the remaining of the various

species and lifeforms living together under the Alfa's station rules.

In addition, these numbers did not include the visitors from outside the city

that numbered in millions. From this, one could tell how diverse and unique

Alfa is as a city.

As the ship ew into the enormous moving structure, Emery was unable to

contain his curiosity. He couldn't stop turning his head left and right, which

elicited a round of laughter from Silva.

From far behind the ship window, Emery could see what appeared to be

landscape stacks in three layers. The upper layer had the sky, the ocean, and its

derivatives; the middle layer was crowded bustlings with numerous towering

buildings; while the bottom layer was like underground caves but as much

crowded as the other two.

As soon as they entered Alfa's airspace, there was immediately a voice

transmission delivered to the ship.

[Intruder xb289]

[Authorization to dock in section three]

It was only when the authorization was granted that the ship Emery and Silva

nally landed at the landing base along with hundreds of other ships.

"We are here, Emery." Silva said as she stood up from her seat, causing her

beautiful dress to utter in the air. "Let's go."

The two of them swiftly walked out of the ship with the four magus in tow. The

other two would remain on board and wait for any backup if needed.

While the four magus hovered around them in vigilance, Emery together with

Silva made their way towards a tunnel that was visible in the distance, where

there was a chamber lled with dozens of people trying to enter. Around half of

them were humans, while the other half had various unique features on them.

A moment later, Emery and Silva saw one of the uniformed people, a humanoid

gure with dark blue skin, and four eyes walking towards them.

"Welcome to Alfa, Silva Ouroboros." He said while bowing. "You may enter this

way."

Apparently, Silva's status as a royalty still brought her some privileges in Alfa.

While many have to be searched and thoroughly investigated to enter, their

group was led in through another entrance that immediately brought them to

the city.

The entire group was given a bracelet each. It was a device that allowed them to

access all three layers of Alfa City; the upper, middle, and lower level. The

bracelet also functioned as a tracking device, allowing the relevant department

to keep track of their activities as a security measure.

Silva turned to Emery and spoke with a smile on her face. "Do you mind if we

start today by having some fun rst? I mean, it's been three years since I was

last here. Please...?"

Of course, Emery would reject such an oer as he was very curious about the

city himself.

They were then given a vehicle similar to the one they had on Planet Ouroboros,

only the model was dierent and much smaller. After entering the vehicle, both

Emery and Silva nally started their outing and went to the upper layer.

Their small vehicle ew out of a mountain, and after that, Emery saw what he

could only describe as a paradise.

The vast expanse of blue above, white sand stretching as far as the eye can see,

rolling waves chasing each other, melodious chirping of birds; it was almost

like they were not on a space station at all.

There were hundreds of buildings within a hundred mile radius. Meanwhile,

above the ground, thanks to his spirit reading, Emery realized that most of the

people here were cultivators.

The majority of them were rank 8 and 9, with a small number possessing a

cultivation below and a considerable number with magus level cultivation. He

also sensed about a dozen gures emitting auras above the magus gures.

Silva chose a spot for their vehicle to land. It was a modern building situated

next to the sandy beach.

Apparently, it was a place to eat.

"I told you before, didn't I? We're going to have lunch." Silva said with a smile

when she saw the confused look on Emery's face.

They entered the place and after being seated, Emery was presented with a

menu lled with various options. Worried that his choice of dishes would be

poor, he decided to ask Silva for a recommendation which she happily accepted.

Thanks to that, the two of them managed to enjoy a pleasant lunch. While

chatting about any topic they could bring up, Emery also enjoyed the

opportunity to sample dierent dishes that he had never tasted or imagined

before. Simply put, it was a wonderful experience for him.

The good meal, the sound of waves crashing, and the breeze of the wind that

ew and uttered his companion's white hair.

It was such a relaxing, ordinary activity but Emery knew he will never forget

this moment.

After they nished their lunch Silva asked "So, where should we head rst?

Shopping for the clone frame? Spells? Or maybe, some artifacts? They have

everything here"

"If that is the case, I wonder if I can nd a Day wolf gene in here?"
