Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito-Chapter 2148 - 10: This Is the Orion Arm?
Moreover, their anticipation was not any less than that of ordinary creatures.
After all, they were about to make a long-term stay in the Orion Arm, and who knew how powerful this so-called Orion Arm really was, or whether the Lord’s family would all be invincible Evolutionary Creatures?
As for the Orion Arm, the group of creatures remained largely unfamiliar, and some members of the Jia Yan Squad were now a bit nervous. After all, they were heading to Lord Jia Yan’s homeland. Setting aside the issue of power, they had to be quite deliberate in how they conducted themselves when meeting the Lord’s family.
Yet they knew that Lord Jia Yan held them in very high regard, otherwise he wouldn’t be taking them to his homeland. It was akin to handing over his last bit of privacy to his subordinates. For a Lord like him, making such a decision required immense trust. It was well known that Jia Yan was always rather reserved in nature, and everyone could tell he trusted no one.
"Alright, we’re about to arrive at the Orion Arm. Although the Lord mentioned that the Orion Arm is not particularly powerful, we cannot be too reassured. If the Lord was just being modest, then we might not be mentally prepared."
"That’s right. Even though the Lord treats us exceptionally well, he is returning to his hometown, which he would obviously find satisfactory. However, to us, the Orion Arm remains an unexplored, unknown place. If there are extremely powerful beings there, we need to discuss this thoroughly; otherwise, our ignorance about this Starfield could spell danger not only for us but also potentially implicate the Lord."
"Are you suggesting that in the Orion Arm, there might exist entities comparable to the Lord? That seems unlikely, considering that the Lord’s current strength is akin to that of an entity at the Peak of Stellar level. He even mentioned that he could escape from a subordinate of a Galaxy Level figure. With such strength, how could there possibly be any adversaries in the Orion Arm?"
"It’s your business if you don’t believe it, but I’m saying that the possibility is not zero. A Starfield capable of nurturing beings like the Lord cannot possibly be a weak Starfield. We cannot be careless."
"Indeed, let’s be well-prepared and fully restore our strength. If we do encounter any strong beings in the Orion Arm, we can at least not lose face for the Lord."
All members of the Jia Yan Squad were extremely concerned about what Jia Yan called his homeland.
In fact, their reasoning was not flawed. Generally speaking, Strong Ones tend to emerge from relatively powerful Starfields. In some such Starfields, two mighty Domain Lord Level presences might even appear. Lord Jia Yan advanced his power so rapidly, and despite being an Evolutionary Creature, the members of the Jia Yan Squad found it hard to believe his homeland would actually be weak.
And even if there were many Strong Ones, though perhaps not as strong as the Lord, for them, as just-arrived Outsiders, it would be a different matter. Particularly for those who might have closer ties to the Lord, if they were bullied, who the Lord would side with is uncertain. After all, one side is his subordinate, while the other is the strong men from his homeland; such matters depend on personal relationships.
Several subordinates did not directly point out this matter. In general, they quietly prepared themselves, internally assuming that the so-called Orion Arm was actually an extraordinarily powerful Starfield.
However, what they didn’t know was that their concern wasn’t misplaced; it might apply to ordinary creatures, but for an Evolutionary Creature, one’s birthplace is just one factor.
Take Jia Yan, born not only in the Orion Arm but on Earth within it—a rare cradle for Strong Ones. Before Jia Yan emerged, there were no Stellar Level beings on Earth, not to mention Stellar Level; even the most basic Universe powerhouse system creatures, whether Sky Level or Earth Level, had never appeared.
So when Jia Yan said his homeland had no Strong Ones, he wasn’t lying—it couldn’t have been truer.
Even a single Dignitary could make waves across the Orion Arm, rendering such a Starfield hardly a powerful one. Some comparatively strong Stellar systems could potentially pierce through the entire Orion Arm.
Yet even if Jia Yan knew about his subordinates’ concerns or their extensive pondering, he would say nothing, for only firsthand experience would reveal the truth.
As the subordinates and regular members of the Divine Spirit Major Domain were inside various battleships or ships with countless thoughts running through their minds, a swift fleet arrived before a massive, indescribable light curtain.
"What is this?"
The entire fleet gradually came to a stop before the colossal light curtain, while the group of subordinates and fleet members looked on in extreme astonishment at the incredible sight before their eyes.
This light curtain before them seemed to connect the heavens, stretching and enveloping an immense Starfield, hundreds of light-years in size.
It was astonishing—not mentioning manpower, but even technology could hardly construct such a light curtain spanning hundreds of light-years, right?
Yet astonishingly, this Starfield was enshrouded by such a light curtain—it was simply incredible.
"Um, so this is the Orion Arm? The Lord said there were no Strong Ones here; how can anyone believe that? How could there be a Strong One capable of enveloping an entire Starfield? What kind of power is this, what kind of astonishing idea?"
"Gosh, this Strong One is beyond my imagination. Could it be a Domain Master? Or perhaps even an ordinary Domain Master couldn’t achieve this; at least the two nominal Domain Masters of our Divine Spirit Major Domain couldn’t accomplish such a feat. To see this situation, how does the Lord dare say the Orion Arm has no Strong Ones, it’s simply..."
"Not only are there Strong Ones, but also fearsome Strong Ones. When we go in, we mustn’t show any disdainful attitudes, or else risking being slaughtered by this Starfield’s strong entities would just be an instant thing."
A group of subordinates instantly lost the momentum they had just started to build up.
The Orion Arm, according to Jia Yan, was portrayed as a relatively weak Starfield, yet they were now finding this hard to believe. Seeing it with their own eyes, they still believed they had underestimated Lord Jia Yan’s Mother Star Field.
The presence of such a fearsome light curtain suggested at least a collaboration involving a Domain Lord Level existence and extremely astounding technological powers.
"Do not get overly tense; this light curtain was created by an Evolutionary Creature Predecessor, who has long since passed away."
Jia Yan timely revealed this fact to his highly tense subordinates.
"An Evolutionary Creature Predecessor who has passed away? Indeed, that’s a possibility."
Upon hearing Jia Yan’s explanation, the subordinates’ hearts eased slightly.
The fleet continued to fly silently, not daring to directly ram into the light curtain. Although Jia Yan knew that the combined strength of his fleet could perhaps breach it, he refrained from doing so, to honor Predecessor Tian Ji’s efforts.
When Jia Yan and the fleet reached the faint light curtain, an overwhelming Brainwave Power, filled with a lifeless aura, connected with Jia Yan.
Yet this connection nearly caused some subordinates within the Jia Yan’s Battleship to faint immediately from fright.
"My God, I can’t move; what kind of power is this?"
"Though the power is lifeless, it is absolutely beyond our imagination. Even Lord Jia Yan himself seems unable to compare with it. Such terrifying power indeed exists in the world."
"Could the Lord have been wrong? How is it that the Orion Arm possesses even stronger Brainwave Power than the Lord’s? Even if it’s merely the residual Brainwave of an Evolutionary Creature Predecessor, it shows just how strong this Starfield is."
"Particularly considering the Lord’s homeland, known as Earth, where the strong men of this Civilization must be as numerous as feathers. We must remain humble when the time comes."
