Death... and me
chapter-1597

Roan continued, ‘This is what you can do. Each of your badges has a number on it. As long as you use your Divine Sense to input the number of someone else’s badge, that person’s badge will react the same way. From there on, you will be able to talk with each other. Once you finish, just retreat your Divine Sense from inside, and the communication will stop.’

Roan did exactly that, which caused everyone’s badges to stop receiving any communication from him. “These badges can work anywhere inside the Dimensional Realm, so you can contact anyone or any building by inputting their numbers with your Divine Sense.”

Of course, Rean and Havek had even further upgraded the badges, which were based on the design of the smartphones. Not only that, they even added a tiny DPU inside, which was responsible for managing the information about the members. Sect Points wasn’t the only thing it could display. With the way Rean and Havek created those badges, they would be able to add new rows of information on it as well.

Rean smiled when he looked at everyone’s faces. ‘Hehe! This is just the start. What the DPUs are really good for are the heavy workloads. Places like the Mission Hall, the Resource Building, and the Management Office will be the areas where the DPUs will truly stand out,’ he thought to himself.

Rean stepped forward and continued from there. “These badges can also communicate with others outside the Dimensional Realm. However, unlike here, they have a very limited range outside. If you look in the sect’s direction, you will see a tower there. It’s that tower that allows for long-distance communication. If you aren’t anywhere inside its range, you obviously can’t reach anything too far away. In any case, these badges have a range of two to ten kilometers. Though, that will all depend on the location. If there are a lot of obstacles, they can’t reach that far. If it’s an empty space, their range can obviously go further. That’s why I said two to ten kilometers when you’re not within the tower’s range.”

”Sect Points, communication, sect warnings, missions, resources, etc. You will be able to get information and make requests regarding all of that with your badges. Make sure you keep it with you. If you lose your badge, that will incur a penalty of 300 Sect Points,” Rean warned everyone soon after.

However, it was hard to tell whether 300 Sect Points were a lot or not. With that being said, someone immediately asked, “Can you give us an example on Sect Points?”

Rean pondered in silence for a bit before saying, “How about this? You know that you won’t receive Divine Stones as payment anymore, right? Instead, you will get Sect Points, which you can use to exchange for Divine Stones. Well then, each Rank One Divine Stone costs 50 Sect Points. That means you will lose a total of six Rank One Divine Stones if you end up needing a new badge.”

Immediately, quite a few hands tightened around their own badges. Pretty much everyone here was poor. Well, that’s the kind of people the twins recruited. For them, even a single Divine Stone was priceless, let alone six.

Rean also warned them, “Your Soul Binding Contracts stated that you must be loyal to the sect. That means you can’t do anything to harm it in any way. I think I don’t need to tell you that telling others outside about what your badges can do is definitely one of those things. After all, have you ever seen a communication item that can be used almost infinitely without losing anything? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Thoughts Transmission Talisman with such capability before.”

Naturally, they all understood what Rean meant. It was obvious that this badge was not something one could find outside. It also would be worth a lot if they tried to sell it. It’s just that the Soul Binding Contracts, which stated death for those who broke it, would definitely stop anyone from opening their mouths.

”Well, it’s not like you could get anything from it outside anyway,” Rean added. “These badges were made in a way that their owners and only their owners can use them. Even if you try to sell them, they will be completely useless in anyone else’s hands. You would have to convince others that it’s capable of doing what it does.”

Sure enough, that would be even harder. An infinite Thoughts Transmission Talisman-like item? Who would believe that if they couldn’t use them themselves? From the outside, it truly just looked like a badge. If one tried to open it to check inside, it had a range of Circuitry Formations that no one knew how they worked. Rean and Havek were pretty much confident that their secret wouldn’t escape the sect at all.

Roan then put an end to that part. “Alright, that’s how it works. Later, you guys can try it out since they don’t cost anything. Now then, onto the next topic. If you look in the Cedar Tree’s direction, you will see that a forest is rapidly growing there. We can’t let you all simply cultivate forever, after all. With that being said, that forest will be filled with demon beasts really soon. Not only that, but you’ll also be able to find herbs for alchemy, ores for forging, crafting materials, and so on. It will be the perfect place for you guys to gain experience. Also, remember that killing and permanently crippling sect members is prohibited. Other than that, everything is valid. This is not a happy family. If you want to grow in the sect, you’ll have to fight for it. Keep that in mind.”
