1022: Why Did She Want to Kill You?

At Lin Sanjiu's speed, combined with Silas's assistance, it should have been more than enough for her to catch up to "Luther" within ten minutes. However, just shortly after they rushed out of the control room, "Luther" disappeared around a corner. Despite several inquiries to Silas, the system seemed clueless.

Obviously, the other party had used some ability or item to interfere with her tracking and hide their own traces.

"What are they playing at?" Bohemia complained breathlessly. "This is a spaceship. Where else can they run? Are they planning to jump ship?"

Frowning, Lin Sanjiu stopped in her tracks.

Indeed, they couldn't pretend to be Lin Sanjiu and order the ship to stop anymore, nor could they abandon the ship and escape because Exodus didn't have a single aircraft on board. In that case, there was only one possibility.

"They are looking for the part of the ship that was swallowed by the Great Deluge," she said softly, as if her thoughts were clear as a mirror.

"How do they know?" Bohemia murmured. "They can't see it."

"Although we didn't show it, I looked out of the porthole for quite a while... From that particular window, you can only see a part of the ship, and there's nothing interesting to see except for the presence of the Great Deluge. Plus, the ship paused for a moment, and the personalities knew that we could see the Great Deluge... If they were a bit more quick-witted, they would have understood it on the spot."

Once they willingly entered the Great Deluge, they might never see Lin Sanjiu again.

Bohemia opened her mouth to speak but hesitated. When she finally spoke, it was apparent that she had changed the topic: "But... do they know where that part is?"

Matching the ship's exterior and interior was not a simple task because Exodus was circular in shape. Even Lin Sanjiu sometimes got lost inside it, let alone someone who was new to it.

"Perhaps they are guessing and taking chances," Lin Sanjiu sighed. "Perhaps they are hurrying there... It all depends on how well the Chicky brothers knew this ship after so many years in the Twelve Worlds."

As she spoke, she raised her arm and waved the loose sleeve of her T-shirt.

Bohemia's eyes widened instantly.

After Luther lost his shape-shifting ability, the black vest he wore returned to its original state, becoming a dirty T-shirt that one of the Chicky brothers often wore. It seemed that the shape-shifting ability not only allowed them to create something out of nothing but also enabled them to "utilize resources."

The last personality, who was left alone outside with a nervous expression, was indeed one of the Chicky brothers. With this revelation, another piece was added to the puzzle.

"I have no idea what's going on with those Chicky brothers!" Bohemia, feeling defensive, preemptively scolded. If someone unaware heard her, they would think she was the one who should be held accountable. "You were careless, don't blame me."

"No one is blaming you," Lin Sanjiu responded, finding the conversation headache-inducing. She raised her hand and called for two hover pods. "You made a valid point earlier. The Chicky brothers have been in the Twelve Worlds for so many years; they couldn't possibly be personalities. Their abilities are unique, so it's highly possible that they were already on Lyanna's radar. When she found out they happened to be on Exodus, she simply turned them into personalities."

Thinking about it, the Chicky brothers were indeed unfortunate victims—unjustly caught up in this situation.

Perhaps because the Chicky brothers were also victims of Lyanna's "vacant seat" [Note: It's unclear what "vacant seat" refers to], they withheld information from her. Although it wasn't clear how the "Pledge Implantation" worked, it was reasonable to assume that this ability had limitations. It wouldn't allow Lyanna to impose all her intentions on others simultaneously, and it was normal for there to be oversights.
