As Clover was thinking about how to handle the situation he was currently in, the impatient voice of General Esler suddenly interrupted his thoughts.Feeling very disgruntled and impatient, General Esler demanded, "I will as one more time. Do you agree to an inspection willingly, or do we have to forcefully detain you until you are willing to cooperate?""You have 30 seconds to come to a decision or we will immediately detain you and forcefully inspect your ship."General Esler's words were harsh and domineering as he insisted that Clover make a choice, which was not really much of a choice for him.Clover frowned as he considered his options. To be honest, Clover didn't have many options. The only choice left to Clover was to comply or be forcefully detained.Neither of those choices was good for Clover because either way, he would not have any advantages in this situation.Of course, there was also the option of clover refusing to comply a

Clover's words were meant to sow doubts and suspicion in the minds towards the people of the blackthorn border fortress in the minds of the others waiting to enter into the realms. The thing is that people with the ability to travel between realms were not simple. They were usually from certain forces that had considerable influence in the universe. Although those who travel between realms by going through the void between realms would not be from powerful forces since more powerful forces had direct means to cross realms, it was still not wise to underestimate these forces. All forces, no matter how small, as long as they had the ability to cross between realms, would definitely possess certain secrets that they wouldn't want to share with others. Especially for smaller forces in the universe. Although their secrets might not be worth much in the universe, they were still the foundations on which that force relied to grow. If these secrets were leaked or stolen by o

The method to enter the green river middle realm was by using a special coat of fluorescent paint to coat the outside of a space vessel. The materials used to create this coat of paint were unknown, as it was the greatest secret that belonged solely to the four overlords of the green river middle realm.After paying his very expensive toll, Clover went ahead to a spot further inside the fortress where those who had already been granted access to the middle realm would go to get their pass.This pass was naturally the paint that was needed to enter the green river. Without if one would be quickly dissolved into a mess of goo should they enter the corrosive green river carelessly.The paint was green colored and Clover watched as his original silver spaceship was completely covered in green paint that showed in the darkness of space, making his spaceship look like a huge glowing piece of space rock.Clover found the green color to be tasteless and tacky. Al

Clover woke up to the feeling of his head splitting apart. A severe burst of pain jolted Clover awake, causing him to shoot straight out of his bed."Damn it!" Clover cursed out loud."What the hell happened to me? I feel like my head is about to split apart from the seams."Clover hurried used his hands to massage his temple to relieve the headache he was feeling. At the same time, Clover quickly took in his surroundings.With great difficulty, Clover managed to recognize his current environment. Looking at the familiar pieces of bland furniture, Clover realized that he was in his room on the 'Going Broke'.Noticing this, Clover was confused."How did I get here?""Wasn't I still in the cockpit before?"Clover had some doubts about his current situation. Because of his headache, Clover's memory was currently blank, and he was having difficulty remembering what had happened before he fell asleep.Just as Clover was tryin

Shortly after Clover woke up, he immediately got to work trying to do his best to get his ship into working condition while also preparing for the arrival of their guests.It was only when Clover started working on the ship he understood how truly dire his situation was.All the main thrusters had been fried after being overworked when they tried to escape the green river. The ship was only relying on the backup thrusters to cruise through space, but their speed was very dismal and it would take them a very long time if they wanted to reach any habitable areas.Then there was the fact that without the scanners, they couldn't navigate their way in space. Fortunately, Trudy had managed to fix some of the short-range scanners and get them back to working condition, so they were not totally blind in space. This way, if there was a dangerous object or asteroid heading their way, they would be able to detect it in time and evade it. Although if Clover was so unlucky a
