Chapter 1284: Identifying the Prison Ships
"Yea, idiots. How are you going to do that if you can\'t breathe in space? Those ships might not even be docking near the Space Colony at all. Could be a few clicks away while the spaceport people send their automated refuelling droids to get it done." Peppers said as she stared at the squarish built receiver.
"I am rather surprised you know their protocols." Rei also deduced that it could be what Peppers had surmised.
"Please, whenever Jin goes into a new world, the System makes me learn as much as possible. The only thing is that knowledge usually goes to waste because no one asked me any questions with the exception of the System using me as a walking database. Sometimes the problems you people have could be quickly rectified if you ask me." Peppers yawned a bit since it was supposedly night back in Jin\'s World but right here, it was barely evening. (Although there was no sun around, the space colony had a 24 hour weather system that monitored the colony\'s ecosystem.)
"Because you are almost nigh unapproachable to most people. And getting an answer from you was like trying to get a wish from a wishing fountain." Sebastia said which made Peppers stick her tongue out in defiance. However, even as she was not happy with Sebastia\'s answer, Peppers immediately used her magic within the room that they were hiding and revealed a holographic map that contained information on the flight paths of the spaceships as well as a few stationary ones which they suspected to be the prisoner ships.
"Wow, how did you do this?" Rei asked and Peppers grinned.
"Magic~" Peppers said as to let that sarcasm seep into the two who were looking at it before explaining that she used her scan magic to get the information. After all, there were no magic casters in this world and she blatantly did not care about blasting her powers.
"Judging from the size and length of the ships, especially with the proximity between the two of them, I guess we found our mark. The next question is how are we going to go there without being seen?"
"Guess teleporting is out of the way?" Rei tried to see if Peppers was able to do that but she shook her head.
"As much as I would like to do that, teleporting into space is tricky. Teleportation usually refers to coordinates and those coordinates are based on a certain core landmark. In most instances, we can teleport around because we are situated on one planet. Right now, I have no idea where our dear planet earth is with respect to the Space Colony 969 and even I DO know, the teleportation coordinates into space requires four dimensions instead of the usual three. And before you ask what that is, it\'s basically not having half our bodies stuck in space and the other half in a ship. Or with a portal-"
"Okay, we get what you mean. Let\'s go." Sebastia said as she kept the receiver inside the storage ring provided by the System and told the other two to dress up accordingly.
"Go where?" Peppers asked but Sebastia already started activating her cosmetic inscription charm.
"I have a man that could bring us close to that ship. Would that help if we bring ourselves closer to the prison ship and that way you could teleport us in? I assume your scan magic could x-ray the entire ship and provide us safe passage the moment we got closer."
"You are not going to ask why not use my Scan Magic, right now?" Peppers questioned and Sebastia smirked.
"Please Peppers. Everyone under Jin knows you. You would not waste your magic while there\'s a chance for the Demonic Red Eyed Queen to blow things up. But of course, please blow the entire ship, there\'s a chance Jin might want it."
"Like I said, he can\'t possibly teleport the entire ship back into the shop\'s - oh wait. Do you mean…" Peppers squinted her eyes towards the crafty minotaur. "Huh, never expect you to think like that. Guess Kraft\'s influence did rub on you quite a bit. I\'ll give it some thought."
"What are you two talking about?" Rei still felt clueless between their conversations and felt that his presence was more or less redundant.
"TLDR, she\'s taking advantage of my generosity to aid you." Peppers said while she used her magic to look older instead of a cosmetic inscription charm, she had to configure her looks once again when Sebastia threw a passport to her.
"Felt the opportunity was right the moment she did not grumble when she came to the Mecha World." Sebastia smiled as she placed an inscription charm onto Rei, changing his face slightly to match the man on the passport.
"Well, this is exciting. Never had I thought I would be in like some movie, changing my face for an undercover mission." Peppers thought to herself as she chose some clothes from Sebastia\'s \'wardrobe\'.
"We are going in fast, pay some cash and travel as near to the spaceships as possible." Sebastia went through with the plan but Rei\'s head was already full of panic making it impossible for him to listen to whatever Sebastia was talking about.
"Sigh, do we really need a character like him right now? Can\'t we just send him back first and teleport him back to us when the situation is ripe?" Peppers could already feel she was in the movies and Rei was that scared person which could potentially screw everything up.
"It\'s not my call and besides we never know when we need some actual help from a person who is native to this world?" Sebastia said as she slapped Rei to wake him up while Peppers reluctantly cast a calming spell to stabilise his emotions.
"I can only hope this immigration thing will be a quick one." Sebastia hoped.
