Reincarnated as an Energy with a System
chapter-1531

The triangular ship took up speed as it got further away from the ship so that it could remain parallel to the ship as it moved forward.

The triangular ship flew at an angle, moving closer toward the gas giant's ring.

Ning followed behind and watched them pick up more speed once they came close enough to a rather large asteroid.

The oblong-shaped asteroid was quite large at about nearly 2 kilometers on the longest side. And these people seemed to have aimed for that asteroid.

Bursts of steam showed up from the ship from time to time as the people inside of it tried to speed up or slow down to maintain a o relative velocity with the asteroid.

Once they were cruising parallel to the giant piece of rock, they began slowly moving closer to the rock, bit by bit, until they were kissing the surface of it.

Something shot out from the underside of the ship, grabbing onto the asteroid before slowly lowering itself down to the surface of the asteroid.

While the asteroid was small in the scale of the world, it was still a massive body over 2 kilometers long with hundreds of meters of width.

The asteroid rotated slowly, and the gas giant was beginning to come into view.

Ning, still invisible, arrived close to the asteroid and watched what the people there did.

Alex waited for the ship to open up and the people to walk out, but nothing of that sort happened at all. Instead, a flash of silver light shone for a second and a person appeared outside of the ship in a flash.

Ning was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly realized that the person had teleported out. This crew has a teleporter among them. That wasn't such a bad idea given how treacherous the region they were in was.

Another flash and another person appeared outside. Then another, and another. A total of 6 people appeared outside, leaving four others inside the ship for some reason.

Ning looked at the people inside the ship, recognizing no one in particular at all. Their rank was also no higher than lieutenant, which while high, wasn't that high for a mission as severe as this one.

There was no doubt this mission was led by a Captain.

Ning had seen 3 of these people work just before, creating steam to maneuver the ship. That was to say, the three of them were Burner, Soaker, and most likely a Breather.

People who could create fire, water, and air were certainly helpful in creating a bunch of instantaneous force to push around a spaceship.

Ning couldn't help but wonder why Soakers were absent from the main ship. Why weren't they creating water? Were the thrusters perhaps too large for water to have enough time before they were shot out of the back, rendering them useless?

Now that Ning thought about it, Water was a great collector of heat and took a lot of energy to change temperature. Maybe that was the reason they decided to not use them in large quantities.

Heating up air for instantaneous volume increase was much more feasible than heating up tons of water to convert it all into steam. At least that was what Ning assumed.

Ning looked at the last member of the ship and wondered what he was. He had to have a power, right?

Considering there were 10 people on the ship, were there by any chance people with one of the ten different powers?

There was certainly a Teleporter too, so it wasn't too far off to say the rest were here as well.

'A Connector is most definitely here,' Ning thought. 'That is the only way they can communicate with each other. And if a Connector is here, a Thinker is bound to be here.'

Ning wondered if the person inside the ship was a Thinker.

The group of 6 that were outside the ship had tied themselves to the ship with a long, extending cable that seemed to go on forever. They walked in the same direction, seemingly looking for something.

Ning followed them and softly stepped onto the asteroid. As he did, he felt the place beneath his feet be rather soft, almost like a cushion. It felt as though he was walking on soft sand.

He looked down and realized why that was.

'Wow!' he couldn't help but exclaim internally in shock. His feet were stuck in the dirt, coming up to his ankles. But the dirt was no ordinary dirt at all.

It was Spark.

Ning looked up in a flash and stared at the people that had moved on. He believed he finally understood their mission here.

'They're here for Spark!'

They gathered Spark to leave on a ship that gathered Spark and then left that ship to gather more Spark. To these people, gathering Spark was a never-ending task that repeated for as long as they lived.

'This asteroid must have traveled around Krimanax for ages. How much Spark has it managed to gather?'

Ning had learned something about Spark from Berraine that seemed rather important. And that was the fact that the lifetime of Spark as a matter was a little over 5 years.

If left unused for 5 years, Spark degraded until it became nothing. No one knew what happened to Spark, but even if kept in a bottle unused for over 5 years, Spark simply disappeared from existence.

Ning had a suspicion that it turned into energy of some form, but as to what form exactly, he wasn't sure. He would have to ask his system for the exact answers, and he was a little lazy about that recently since having to use the Interface.

The ground shuddered suddenly as Ning felt slight tremors and looked forward to seeing the

cause.

When he did, he noticed a man moving his arms in all directions as he caused the ground around him to sink and move away, creating a large crater in the middle of the asteroid.

'Now what are you making that for?'
