Chapter 56: The Secret of the Scepter
"Please wait for me!" Rey turned around and shouted. He ran out of the captain's room with everyone's stunned expressions - the automatic door was not fully opened, and he rushed sideways through the crack in the door that only allowed half of the people to pass through the front, and dragged a faint golden light behind him - he even used elven energy. In order to get to his lounge as soon as possible, Rey, who is the captain of the Byron, even did not hesitate to run around the ship's corridor at a speed that was obviously illegal. It's not that he didn't think about flying, but in the end he gave up. Not only because it would trigger a system alarm on the Byron, but also because of what he perceived as a captain.
He was running so fast that he finally braked hard and stopped at the door of his lounge after crashing into Ellandi in the wide spaceship corridor of unknown ships. He gasped for breath and slapped his right hand on the shoulder-high display to the right of the break room door—but with negligible force. He gasped for breath as he stared at the door with a somewhat dazed look. Rey felt like he couldn't run any faster — in fact, he was running faster than he would normally be flying — and that's why he felt a little out of breath.
Immediately afterward, his body trembled violently, only to realize that the door to the lounge was fully open. Rey didn't dare to delay, so he ran in and pulled open the door to his closet. He pulled away from the clothes hanging inside, and saw Helka's scepter leaning against the wall of the cabinet. He bowed his head slightly, reached out and grabbed the upper middle of the scepter, and suddenly felt a wave of self-dizziness. However, Rey didn't stop to take a break. He shook his head vigorously, then ran out of the break room with Helka's scepter. Of course, he didn't forget to close the door. On the way back, Rey visibly felt his speed slow down, but he crashed into Ellandi again in a not-so-spacious spaceship corridor - but he didn't realize it.
Rey rushed into the captain's quarters of the Byron three minutes after he had rammed into Elandy again, and poked Helka's scepter into the ground like a crutch with a "dang", gasping for air as if he were hanging on it. "Captain Rey, I think...... You should slow down a little bit, or stop halfway through to catch your breath or something......" Borax said with some hesitation. I don't know why, but she always feels like laughing when she looks at Rey now. "I didn't ...... Cough...... Affair...... I only ...... Be...... Ahem......" Rey tried to answer Bollacs, but felt a little out of breath as he spoke. His eyes were so black that he almost fell to the ground, so he had to give up speaking for a while.
"Wait a minute, how about that?" Polax said with a laugh. "Alright then, let's talk like this first." At this time, everyone in the captain's room heard Rey's voice very clearly, but Rey did not speak. Mental power! Some of the fast-reacting crew members immediately popped up with such a word in their heads. "As you can see, none of the three major cities of Helka are now missing." "But that doesn't mean the cities are gone." Based on past experience, I suspect that those cities have reverted to the state they were buried in the ground. ”
"Oh-" exclaimed someone in the captain's room. "So, I went and fetched Helka's scepter." Rey said, holding up Helka's scepter so that all the people in the captain's room could see it. "Helka is the creator of Helka, and he is the one who helped us summon the former Byron fleet." Rey went on to explain, "I believe that what he entrusted me before he died must have meant something, so I wanted to take a gamble. If those cities are really in those places, they must be in those places. Of course, I need your support. "Definitely support Captain Rey!" Someone in the captain's room shouted. Then the others should be reconciled. "Thank you all for your support." Rey bowed, then began to give orders, "Pollax will come with me to the top of the Byron, and the others will stay here to keep an eye on the surroundings. "Yes, Captain Rey." Borax replied along with the group.
Ten minutes later...... "Captain Rey, do you have to stand that tall?" Pollax said, tilting his head and looking at Rey. At this point, she was standing at the top of the Byron near the watchtower, and Rey had just flown to the top of the watchtower to stand. "I don't know, but it doesn't hurt to try to recreate the scene as much as possible." Rey replied, louder than usual. "Standing on top of a ship?" Pollax tilted his head, shrugged his shoulders, and asked. "Stand on a high place." Rey paused and replied. "Oh......" Borax replied slowly. She grimaced at the watchtower, feeling that Rey was a little nervous now.
Rey took Helka's scepter in both hands and held it up to his chest. He stared at the sapphire at the top of the scepter, remembering what Helka had said when he summoned him. Polax stood down and stared at him—she hadn't seen Helka's summoning before, and she was going to see it today, because she had heard about it from others, and it was a spectacular scene. Five minutes later...... Rey still maintained the same position as fifteen minutes ago, not even blinking his eyes a few times. I don't know why, but he suddenly felt that it was a bit difficult for him to shout those words out loud.
"Captain Rey? Captain Rey! Are you storing energy? He heard Pollax shout, but he didn't answer. You can't just go find a mountain with no one to stand on and summon now, right? Does the Byron have time for him to toss so much? Thinking of this, Rey gritted his teeth and gathered energy to pour into the sapphire at the top of the scepter. The sapphire flickered, sucking his energy into it, but nothing changed much. How so? Rey felt a little suspicious, frowned, and increased his energy output—Helka hadn't really taught him how to use his scepter.
Suddenly, the energy-infused sapphire burst into a dazzling ocean blue glow. The light radiated in all directions, and the * used by the contestants was brighter. "Ouch!" Pollax screamed, quickly lowering his head and covering his eyes with his hands. The light of that moment was so bright that even Tammiddod's side could see it clearly. A minute later...... Borax felt that the light was no longer so dazzling, and he opened his eyes. When she looked up at Rey again, she was stunned. It's nothing more than spectacular! She felt that she couldn't shout now, so she had to shout in her heart.
She saw a crystal blue pillar of light with a radius of 1.5 meters around Rey, and where the pillar of light connected to the sky, the clouds rotated to form a spiral. In the gap between the clouds, from time to time, dark blue and golden lightning flashed and made a "crackling" sound. Around the pillar of light were many silvery-white and silvery-blue four-centimeter-wide bands of light, which spiraled upwards into the topmost clouds. When each band of light enters the clouds, a flash of light bursts of light that are exactly the same color as the band of light, brief but unusually bright.
At this time, Rey was suspended in the middle of the middle of the pillar of light, and the scepter that he had held in both hands had now been replaced by his right hand and held it in one hand. He opened his mouth slightly, his eyes glowing with an ocean blue. Borax looked at him and raised his head slightly, as if staring at something. And from just now to now, Rey and everyone else have a completely different feeling. The next second he saw the blue glow of the gem, he found himself in a white world. There was a white expanse around him, and he couldn't see anything else but his own body. Immediately after, Rey heard a voice. "Bang! Bang-knock! "The sound is getting louder and closer. Rey could hear it being a heartbeat—the heartbeat of Helkastar.
