Chapter 756
Day 74 to 78 updates stream in as the commanders continue to rest. Bri slowly cultivates yellow threads to make progress toward her True Core but it does not look like she will achieve this any time soon as she is occupied by managing everyone here and watching the trading markets and setting up deals and meetings with the other large-volume traders within the Galactic Trade Commission.
There seems to be little to no change in Abby's live feed, other than her illusion of her outer body sparkling more than usual.
Arie appears to be about 85-90% saturated, while Maria's holograms all still look very similar to the same day she started cultivating. Despite this fact, Alveron has restocked her chamber with a fifth load of fresh divine fragments—enough threads to fully saturate a 1st Class True Core ten times over.
[Minute 16][Ava]: Still no new distortions, continue as usual.
Ava sends another report and begins to receive updates back as usual. However, no more than a few seconds pass before the sensation of her body being consumed by an overwhelming mirror-like bend in space washes through her.
The second Realm Wave flows through the entirety of the green zone of the Upper Realm.
When Ava's mind and body recalibrate and she looks down at the Day 79, 80, and 81 messages in her system, she waits a full half-minute before convincing herself that the time between realms has actually stabilized.
To confirm her suspicions, instead of sending a normal update back, she uses the new private spectate function and directly calls Bri.
Their connection links instantly, and the two stare at each other in the empty black void that the system summons as a virtual calling space.
