Death… And Me

Chapter 2381 Why?

"However, it is true that you won't get much of an advantage at first," Rean added. "How about this? Essefy, give me the badges you got your hands on. I will arrange for the communication that goes through those ones can't be seen by the Demon Beasts and Humanoids."

"You can do that?" Essefy and Huban asked at the same time.

Rean obviously confirmed. "I can. As long as there aren't too many of them, I can make their communication pass unnoticed by the system. First of all, there are quite a few tens of millions of these badges already, so keeping track of all of them is already quite a hard task for the humanoids and demon beasts."

Huban then looked at Essefy, who was the one with more knowledge about this topic. "Is it worth it?"

Essefy immediately nodded. "Absolutely. First of all, our Essence Race will have a huge issue once we get the schemes to build our own communication system. We don't have the manpower to build the towers. Even if we do, we can't do that without the other powers of the Realm of Gods perceiving it. After all, the towers have to be visible and stay at high points. As long as we spread our system a little, it will definitely be found by the others."

Essefy continued. "However, Rean's method will allow us to use their communication badges and towers, so no one will notice anything. Since we still can't show ourselves outside, at least not until the devils are defeated, having a few untraceable communication badges will be a huge advantage. At the very least, I won't need to use the other methods to deliver the message to you anymore, which is much better and faster."

Joju, standing on the side, found a problem. "Wait, but that is based on our trust in this human. What if he is lying, and we get found straight away?"

Roan glanced at Joju and shook his head. "I don't want to make you look like someone who can't think things through, but... Do you really see us trying to become enemies with three Peak Divinity Realm experts, especially someone like Huban? Huban said he has an agreement with other experts at his level, but I doubt it reaches the point where he can't at least take care of one or two people like me and Rean."

Indeed. It didn't matter how you looked at it. Becoming enemies with Huban alone was already a very idiotic thing to do. Joju then went quiet and looked away. His question was a little too unnecessary. After all, one must not forget that Rean and Roan are also trying to stay hidden from the humanoids, spirits, and demon beasts. There was simply no advantage whatsoever for the twins to fool the essence race here.

Huban then thought of something. "Since you can prevent others from looking into our communications, you most likely can make it so we can look into theirs, can't you?"

Rean nodded. "I can, but I won't do that for you."

"Why?" Huban asked back.

"Because I'm still a human, am I not?" Rean answered. "It is already very generous that I'm putting you and my own race on the same terms. Neither side will be able to pry into the other's information. This much is absolute, and I won't change my mind."

Roan, on the other hand, didn't seem to care. But since Rean already said that, he didn't add anything.

Essefy looked at Huban. "Master, we should take this deal. We will get our hands in our own communication system anyway. If we are still afraid of such an outcome in the future, we can just build our own system once we come out and take what is ours back."

Huban pondered for and accepted the deal. "Very well. However, just the schemes of the communication system won't be enough. Rean, you have to stay here and teach our Essence Race Formations Masters directly. Once they are able to set up a communication system on their own, then we can say that this deal was properly accomplished."

Kentucky, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but ask. "But in that case, who can guarantee that you will give us the Fragment?"

Roan glanced at him and answered that question in Huban's instead. "We don't have any guarantee. He holds the ultimate power, the ultimate strength. We can only trust him, and that's about it. That's the advantage of the strong."

Huban was quite satisfied with Roan's answer. "It is good that you know. That's how the world works."

Rean didn't seem to mind. "No problem. I just hope you have some skilled Formations Master as the Circuitry Formation theory is quite complex compared to the normal formations you have been using so far."

"Skilled?" Huban snorted in response. "I feel like you have already forgotten who created the formation on the gate of this underground city."

Rean felt like giving himself a kick. That was right! The Essence Race literally built a Legendary Level Formation to protect the entrance of the city! The Legendary Level was even outside of the Soul Gem System's scope of detection! If that was not considered a work of skilled Formations Masters, then nothing was! "Ahem... I've never doubted the knowledge of the Essence Race in Formations. Yes, it was a joke, just a joke. Hehe... Hahahaha..."

Still, that made another doubt appear in Rean's mind. "If you have such skilled Formations Masters, why did you send Essefy to spy on the other races? You even wanted him to get the secret of the Communication System. However, he said he knew nothing about formations... Wouldn't it have been better to send one of your skilled Formations Masters instead?"

Essefy, Huban, Landeau, Joju... all the Essence Race members felt a little helpless at that question. "Do you think we haven't thought about that? Unfortunately... Only Essefy has the ability to change into human form. Above all, he is the only one of us that can leave the land of the Essence Race."
