Death… And Me

Chapter 2751: We Can Only Try

Rean turned to Romario. "Alright, this concludes the explanation of how things work in this Dimensional Realm. But you still haven't told me what are your plans to recover the

Fragment."

"True, there is a plan," Romario agreed. "What I've been working on all this time is a Teleport Formation that covers this entire Dimensional Realm."

Rean was taken aback, understanding what Romario wanted to do. "That is a little too ambitious, isn't it?" Yet, Rean immediately refuted the idea. "The amount of energy needed to move 650 billion living beings at once isn't something that can be provided with our current resources. Could it be you are planning to use those Divine Origin Energy Cores?"

However, Rean also noticed a problem with his own guess. "No, forget about the Divine Energy problem. There is another even bigger problem before that. Considering the amount of Divine Energy necessary to teleport everyone away at once, I don't think there is any rune that would be able to resist such a ginormous flow of Divine Energy or Divine Origin Energy at once. The formation would break down before it even had the chance to start."

Romario agreed with Rean's points. "You are right. Because they are living beings, and especially because of those Divinity Realm Leviathans, the Divine Energy necessary would be astronomical. Teleporting everyone away is a dream within a dream. I'm not confident I can build something like that, and the formation would indeed break straight away for the same reason you mentioned."

Rean narrowed his eyes. "Then..." he pondered for a moment, trying to understand the logic. "Teleport formation... Do you want to Teleport the Fragment away instead? No, that's not right. The Fragment is integrated into the Dimensional Realm core. It is impossible to teleport the Fragment away without teleporting the enti-"

Rean suddenly stopped and looked at Romario, amazed. "There is a substitute!"

"Oh!" Romario was surprised. "As expected of my kid, you truly have a talent for Formations. That's correct. We will substitute the Dimensional Realm."

The plan was simple from the surface. The reason the Teleport Formation needed too much Divine Energy was because of the Living Beings. Teleporting Living Beings has always cost many times more than teleporting inanimate objects. If you consider those with high cultivation, this disparate gets even higher.

In the end, it would be hundreds of times easier to teleport to the Dimensional Realm alone instead of the living beings inside. However, there was a problem with that solution. If the Dimensional Realm was teleported away and left everyone behind, everyone would fall into the fabric of space. The Spatial Storms would turn everyone to shreds and the only ones who could survive were those in the Space-Time and above Realms.

That's why Rean understood that there must be a substitute. If you could make a Dimensional Realm with similar dimensions and characteristics, theoretically, you could swap them through the power of space.

Of course, it looked simple, but it was anything but. Let's not even talk about the scale of the formation itself. The intricacies of the formation to realize the swap would make anyone want to bash their heads against the wall. There were just way too many variables to take into consideration.

"Is that even possible?" Rean couldn't help but ask.

"It should be. At the very least, I don't think there is any other way to take this Fragment away without anyone dying," Romario explained. "In the end, our hands are tied, Rean. This is the best idea I was able to come up with that didn't end in the death of many. If you have any better idea, I'm all ears."

"Still, any mistake..." Rean commented.

"Yes," Romario agreed. "Any mistake and we might be condemning the entire Dimensional Realm. That's why I had decided to spend the next few hundred years in this place, slowly working things out. It wasn't like I was in a hurry anyway. Until a few moments ago, I thought our Universe wasn't under any risk."

Romario sighed, though. "And yet, you arrived and told me about the imminent arrival of other Universes. Now, I truly don't have the time to pay attention to the details anymore." "But what about the substitu-" Rean was about to ask. However, he immediately looked to the Sphere of Spatial Power. "This is not a tool to monitor the Dimensional Realm and the outside world, right?"

"Smart," Romario confirmed with a smile. "Yes, what I showed you is, in fact, the replica of the Leviathan's Dimensional Realm. Didn't you notice that there were no living beings when I zoomed it in? Of course, the replica was the easy part. Building a Dimensional Realm at my level, and especially with my Formations Skills, isn't anything that complicated. It just took some time."

Rean completely agreed. Building Dimensional Realms wasn't difficult. Let's not forget that there is no lack of Pocket Dimensional Realms out there. Even Kentucky and Celis managed to build their own with ease, although they spent their time in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm instead. A Dimensional Realm was basically the same as a Pocket Dimensional Realm but on a much greater scale.

"The issue is the swapping formation..." Rean felt a headache. However, he quickly firmed his resolve. They needed it, and Romario's plan was indeed the most adequate. If time wasn't an issue, it would be perfect.

Finally, he smiled. "Well, at least I brought to you two advantages you didn't have before."

"Two advantages?" Romario got curious.

"First, the more Formations Masters, the better. And believe me, I have a lot of Formations Masters specializing in Circuitry Formations with me in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. They have all been working with our type of formations for many years already," said Rean. "The second is the Circuitry Formations Repository in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm," he added.

Romario obviously didn't know about it, so Rean explained. "It has the capability of simulating formations perfectly. As long as the formation you build is identical to the simulation, they will definitely have the same result."

"Is there such a thing?" Romario was taken aback. "Then... we truly have a good chance of finishing this thing in a short time."

"We can only try," Rean agreed.
