Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 1877: The End Of The Race



"BBBTZZZ... ERROR... ERROR..."

"GA-GA-GA-GACK...! E-ERROR... SYSTEMS... OVERTAKEN... ERROR!"

Prosciutto and Carpaccio started talking nonsense as their bodies began releasing sparks of electricity and smoke, their internal systems were instantly heated to the point they began melting.

BOOOM!

And then, in front of the horrified audience, they dropped to the ground, exploding into metal junk and flames, leaving the entire audience utterly mortified!

As this happened, Drake's family spaceship finally reached the Golden Spire, after avoiding almost being eaten by a giant flock of Whalebugs, at that.

"I've taken care of the pesky robots now," Kate said. "So we're good, dad."

"Oh, alright... W-What... did you do to them, Kate?" Drake wondered, feeling like he shouldn't had asked such a question.

"Don't worry, they have been taken care of," smiled Kate, without even wanting to elaborate. In that moment Drake immediately realized that she must have done something that wasn't completely... right.

But whatever the case, none of that mattered at all.

The spaceship slowly stationed in front of the golden spire, as everyone walked out of it.

Only the Bullet Demon required his suit to breathe in the vacuum, Drake and his family seemed completely fine.

This instantly confirmed they could even survive in outer space and travel through if they wanted!

And well, if Yggdrasil had any meanings of allowing them, as it didn't.

The entire world, from what Drake had learned, was like a closed dimension or realm of its own.

Meaning that there was a thick dimensional layer that stopped anybody from escaping and also kept the entire world safe from the universe outside.

But anyways, that didn't matter right now, Drake quickly decided to stop thinking such things.

"Here we are!" he said through telepathy, voices couldn't be heard through the empty vacuum. "The Golden Spire."

"CONGRATULATIONS! WINNER!"

"CONGRATULATIONS! CONGRATULATIONS!"

"WELL DONE! AMAZINGLY DONE!"

"YOU HAVE BROUGHT GREAT ENTERTAINMENT! THANK YOU!"

"DRAKE'S TEAM IS THE WINNER OF THE RACE."

"WINNER! WINNER! WINNER!

There were large floating robots around, which celebrated their arrival, and then a gigantic floating screen showed their group as the winner.

It was done!

"So we're done? Finally?" Miranda asked. "I know it was just a day, but this whole thing felt like a whole week, damn!"

"Yeah, it was a lot of things at once," nodded Benladann. "But... it's kind of nice to end the journey here, in this mystical and beautiful place. I mean, look! All those stars... and the planet down there. It's really pretty."

It was indeed a beautiful sight, and Drake couldn't help but agree with Miranda and Benladann.

"Wooah... there's like no gravity here!" said Benladra. "We're floating around and nothing is pulling us down..."

"Yeah!" Kate nodded. "It's crazy."

"Hehehe!" Drakda floated around playfully, looking at the stars and catching tiny asteroid fragments.

The Golden Spire sat over a gigantic asteroid, and right behind it there were the ruins of this ancient civilization nobody knew about that had gone extinct long ago.

The only thing they left was these ruins, and these golden spires all across the cosmos...

Drake heard the system notification at his side, but he decided to ignore it for a bit.

He wanted to explore this place, and seeing how he wasn't being forced out of the trial, he was allowed some time to sightsee.

"Let's go explore, we might be done but my curiosity is killing me!" He said.

"Honestly, me too!" Nodded Benladra.

"Yeah, let's go daddy," Kate agreed.

"Dadaaa!" Drakda floated towards Drake, biting his head and grasping it with his tiny arms and legs.

"Hahah, alright, how about it, Benladann, Miranda?" Drake asked.

"Sure, we could spare an hour at least," nodded Benladann.

"Let's gooooo!" Miranda flew towards the ruins.

As everyone moved to explore the place, the Bullet Demon remained in silence as he walked towards the golden spire.

"Huh, we really made it here..." he gently touched the spire, cleaning the dust accumulated over it. "There's something... written here?"

He noticed a message left by the ancient civilization, by the people that are no longer here, the first people to travel space and the cosmos.

"This is... I can't understand this, as expected."

Drake noticed him and walked to his side.

"What is it?"

"There's something written here, perhaps in their ancient language, now lost..."

"Ancient language..."

Drake glanced at the whole message; it wasn't that long.

"T-This is...?!"

He was shocked!

What he saw were letters written in English, from Earth.

"What's wrong, Drake? Do you understand the language?!"

The Bullet Demon was shocked.

"...I do."

"How?!"

"I just do... Wait a bit, I'll read it."

Drake focused on the writing, and then read it out loud through telepathy.

"For those that find this message, congratulations. You have reached the stars like we once did. Please, don't commit... the same mistakes we did. Protect the little life there is in this cosmos and love one another. Despite your differences, you're all people at the end." "...What an odd message," the Bullet Demon said. "It was as if whoever wrote it... seemed

very sad, and regretful."

"..." Drake remained in silence, his face darkening.

Without a doubt, this was a message from people of Earth!

But which Earth?

The one he came from?

Or the one that was destroyed by the Quantum Gate?

It seemed as if they talked about the Quantum Gate in some sort of way.

Were they acknowledging this as a mistake?

And if that was the case...

This meant there was a colony of humans that escaped into the stars, the humanity of that

world wasn't completely lost.

And it made sense, the Bullet Demon was a human, and there were a couple of humans

everywhere, living alongside all other alien races.

Humans made it out alive, and now, like the other alien races, had become a spacefaring tribe

of many everywhere.

"I see..."

Drake smiled lightly.

"I'm glad they made it... I'm sure Jonathan would be happy to learn this."

"Huh? Who's Jonathan?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Carl was confused, glancing at Drake with intrigue.

"A... friend, maybe. Anyway, let's go. These ruins... I want to see what they have to say about

the past."
