Endless Journey: Infinite Realms-Chapter 26 By the Power of Vibration

Chapter 26 By the Power of Vibration

Alex was already feeling sleepy by the time that the flying ship he's in stopped its flight.

"Oh, are we here already?" Alex mumbled to himself as he looked around him. "That trip was pretty long… considering how fast this ship is."

Lord Gallius let out contemptuous snort to Alex, as if he could not believe what Alex was saying.

"If you do not know, the World Diagram is regarded as the most important invention and treasure of the current society. For it to have countless security measures is a must, and that security measures are what slowed my ship down." Lord Gallius said these words with slight venom in them, as if he wanted to show Alex his mediocrity.

"I get it compadre, so can you please calm yourself down?" Alex shook his head, effectively removing his drowsiness.

"Don't call me your friend." Lord Gallius said as he stood up from his seat.

The numerous medals pinned on his chest all jiggled, making Alex hear a cacophony of metal tinkles.

"The only reason you are allowed to be in this place is because Miss Alina vetoed that you will behave" Lord Gallius said as he gave Alina a warm look, which she duly ignored.

"So for the visit this time, I, Lord Gallius, will be accompanying you to make sure that you will not do anything rash." Alex could not help but wince as he heard what Lord Gallius said.

Now that this stuck-up blond decided to accompany Alex on seeing the World Diagram, finding a way to attack and destroy the World Diagram later just became extremely harder.

"Don't you have like, any important things to do rather than accompanying me and Alina?" Alex said as he tried to remove Lord Gallius on the visit. "It's just a visit…"

"Hmph, the higher-ups have already decided that I will guard you, vermin!" Lord Gallius said to Alex as he stood up over him.

With Lord Gallius' healthy and tall body, he easily towered over Alex, whose height was just comparable to that of a normal adult.

Anyone who's stared down by someone as 'big' as Lord Gallius would have been shaking on the spot already.

But Alex was Alex, so the only the thing that he did was scoff at the glowering Lord Gallius.

"You've got guts!" Lord Gallius roared as he saw Alex's blatant disrespectful attitude for him. "It seems like I need to personally discipline you!"

At the instant that Lord Gallius said these words, Alex felt everything around him starting to vibrate endlessly.

All the equipment, metal apparatus, and even the water and wine were all vibrating continuously.

Heck, Alex could 'see' with his EM Sense that even the air molecules around him were all vibrating too.

"Vibration. That is your Esper Ability, right?" Alex muttered as he looked around him in wonder.

Even if Alex could feel that his whole body was vibrating too, he did not feel flustered or worried.

"Hmph, if you know my power, then you should be already aware of its lethality." Lord Gallius said as he gave Alex a withering gaze.

For these words by Lord Gallius, Alex's only reply was a nod with his still vibrating head.

Even though vibration looks like a lame power, Lord Gallius' Vibration is very lethal as he uses it effectively.

One of the ways that Lord Gallius uses his power was by forcing objects to vibrate themselves at an extremely high frequency.

By doing this, the structural integrity of these objects will weaken greatly, allowing any external stresses to destroy these objects easily.

There are even instances that objects disintegrate because of too much vibration.

Not only that, but Lord Gallius can also greatly increase his offense by vibrating his weapons.

If Lord Gallius chooses to vibrate a sword in an extremely high frequency, the resulting sword will be able to cut through anything with ease!

However, these applications are only surface level applications of Lord Gallius' ability.

When Alex saw Lord Gallius' hologram 8 days ago, he decided to make a research about this guy, and there Alex found more ridiculous things about Lord Gallius.

With his ability, Lord Gallius can actually manipulate temperature itself!

Temperature is basically just the measure of the vibrations of the particles of an object.

The more vibrations of the particles there is, the hotter an object will be.

Conversely, the lower the number of vibrations of the object's particles, the colder that object will be.

And if there are no vibrations at all, the object will have the temperature of Zero Kelvin, which is the absolute zero.

All this information showed Alex why Lord Gallius acted like he owned the world.

"Your power is pretty awesome, but are you really allowed to use it on me right now?" Alex said with a hint of smirk on his face.

If it was the Alex of a week ago that was here, he would be not as confident.

But his week-long combat with Alina brought Alex's strength to much higher levels.

Right now, Alex's Mental power was at Tier 150, meaning that his Range is already 150 meters by now.

Its still somewhat far compared to Alina's almost 1000 kilometer Range, but reaching this level in just around a week is extremely impressive.

"Hmph. I am just showing you what happens if you dare trying something funny." Lord Gallius growled as the vibrations ceased.

"I think you should give me a better warning." Alex replied as he gave out a low sigh. "After all, what you did earlier is like just a slight tease. Nobody likes to be just teased, you know?"

"…." By this point, Alex started to praise Lord Gallius' self-control.

"Well, now that you have said your piece, can't you start sending us two towards our destination?" Alex said as he flitted behind Alina.

At this position he could smell the fragrance of Alina's hair wafting towards him.

Alina stiffened when she felt Alex's proximity behind her, but she did not voice out any complaint.

As for Lord Gallius, he clenched his fists so tightly that veins could be seen protruding from them.

All these varying expressions just managed to make Asteria, who was still perched at Alex's shoulder, more and more delighted.

"Yes Traveler, this is how you should live your life! Don't just be here to exist, be here to insist!"

"...….."

*************

With many people around him, Alex was not able to give a snarky reply to Asteria. But the expression on his face tells Asteria that Alex will be up to something against her later.

By the time Alex had left the ship, Alina and Lord Gallius were already talking to a delegation of white-clothed individuals.

Their clothes look extremely formal and convenient, as if they were made for the purpose of easing the actions of these people.

Not only that, but Alex also noticed that these people were extremely hardened fighters and killers. No matter how good they did it, Alex can always sense their killing intent with his danger sense.

"Why are they here?" Alina muttered to herself as if she found the appearance of the white-clothed people shocking. "Shouldn't they be doing patrol services now?"

One of the white-clothed people, who was basically the tallest among them, looked at Alina with a smile as he said,

"The President himself has decreed that it will happen. I do not know why, but the President gave the command that all the Security Firms affiliated with the WEO should send their best guards for this day. "

"Hmm…" Alina chose not to probe deeper in this matter, as the only thing in her mind right now was to talk to her sister.

As for Alex, his heart sank as he these white-clothed people milling around them.

Forget Lord Gallius, even Alex will find it hard to perform his plan with these people around.

"Can you just take us to the World Diagram already?" Lord Gallius said as he scoffed at the white-clothed guards. "I want to be done with this already."

"Of course, Lord Gallius, it will be our pleasure to lead you." The leader of the white-clothed guards said as he briskly walked away from Lord Gallius and the others.

Alex and Alina took this as the cue to leave, with their footsteps following closely that of the white-clothed guard.

Lord Gallius was the last one to follow, and with the way he casually walked, he seemed to be used in this kind of situations already.

"Hey Alina," Alex whispered to Alina as he noticed something weird.

"I thought that we will go to see the World Diagram… But I can't see any powerful structures around that can house something like the World Diagram. Hmm… unless it is underground. If it was underground, less facilities will needed that will obviously save more budget."

"Well, I think you have answered your question already." Alina said impassively as she saw the white-clothed guard stopping in his tracks.

The guard then unsheathed a sword from his right side, which he promptly stabbed towards the ground.

A few seconds of silent waiting later, and the ground around them opened up, showing another hole descending downward.

Just like that traphole at the Underground Bunker, this new hole also had stairs in it.

Seeing this somehow made Alex more nervous, as he did not know where this place will lead.

"In order for the World Diagram to be safe from any kinds of radiation or stray elements from the outer space, its creators decided to place the World Diagram at the confines of the underground." The guard said with a hint of pride in his voice.

"The ground can block most of the harmful stuff, and anything that manages to pass through that will be dealt with by the structures below."

"Yeah, we get that this place is really awesome." Lord Gallius said with his expression saying otherwise. "So let's just go on and be done with it, ok?"

"In that case. Let's get a move on already." The guard gruffly replied as he disappeared inside the hole.

Alex could only shake his head with a bemused expression as he and the others placed their hands and feet on the stairs.

They then started their slow descent, which lasted for around 30 minutes

At the instant that Alex reached the end of the stairs, he started to look around to see potential sources of danger.

But before he could try to look around him, he suddenly felt a tap of on his shoulders.

Alex looked back and there he saw one of the strangest man that he had seen in this world.

This man's body was bony and thin, as if all the food that he ate were sucked out of him.

Even his handsome face was gaunt, making him look like a handsome Ske***or.

What made his appearance somewhat comical is the extremely large Afro hairstyle that this man sported.

"Alex and Alina, I have been waiting for you arrival since earlier." The Afro guy said as his eyes roved all over the two. "With you two here, then I guess we can already proceed to the next step."

"Um, who is this guy?" Alex asked to Alina, who seemed to be petrified by the man's presence.

"Don't dare to ask it right now!" Alina hissed as she glared at Alex.

"The only thing that you should just know is that this Afro Guy is one of the two current owners of the World Diagram." Alina said as she lowered her voice further.

"If you try to offend him greatly, your death will not be a pretty one." Alina concluded as she forced Alex to slightly bow in front of the Afro guy.

"Ok…" That was the only reply that Alex could give in response to Alina's somewhat grim revelation.

"I like behaved kids, just like you guys." The Afro guy cheerfully said to the nervous duo. "However, if you try to be naughty, then expect me to give you lots of pain and misery!"

"...…"
