The room looked just like the crystallizer’s Main Control Room . There were many active crystallizer machines . He had already expected such sights, so Han Sen wasn’t surprised by their presence .
But this crystallizer-like room was inhabited; Han Sen saw a person inside .
Han Sen did not know if the person was dead or alive, as he was standing inside a tank made of crystal . The tank was full of liquid, which surrounded and supported the man .
The man had short black hair, and he was clad in a set of crystal armor . It looked similar to the one Han Sen had taken from Tina .
Aside from that, there was nothing outstanding about the man . By all accounts, he looked like an ordinary human . There were no extra physical abnormalities that would have suggested him to be a creature or spirit .
“Is that a human?” Han Sen was not sure . He used his Dongxuan Aura to scan the tank . Strangely, his senses could not penetrate the surface . He was unable to get a reading of the man’s energy and determine if he was alive .
But when Han Sen approached the tank, he heard a voice . It said, “The machine has an error . God’s Baptism cannot be completed . Please wait or turn back . ”

Han Sen looked around, unsure of where the voice had come from . But Han Sen could definitely tell it was an Al of sorts; it wasn’t the voice of something living .
Han Sen chose not to leave just yet, though . This place surprised him, and the wait could give him a chance to understand the place some more .
Something must have happened there, which had resulted in the crystallizer equipment breaking .
“If I am correct, this crystal tank is the equipment used for God’s Baptism . ” Han Sen walked around the room, thinking . After a brief examination, he turned his attention back to the tank .
Han Sen was confused . He wasn’t sure if the man in the tank was a person supposedly undergoing the baptism, or if he was the operator of the room .
“What happened here? Why is this place broken? Is it living or dead?” Han Sen had a lot of questions .
The room did not look damaged, and there was nothing special there aside from the man in the tank .

“Connection to control room has been successfully established . Would you like to open the door?” The beetle symbol on Han Sen’s hand began to glow, and then the voice of the Al sounded again .
“Open . ” Han Sen was happy about this . He was now sure that place belonged to the crystallizers .
“It looks like the sanctuary has a connection to the crystallizers . I just don’t know if they discovered the sanctuary like humans did, or if they actually created it . ” Han Sen looked at the light from the beetle, lost in thought .
A crystal wall parted silently . Han Sen looked towards it and was surprised . There were many crystallizer buildings beyond the wall, but many had been brought to ruin . The place was crumbled and broken .
Han Sen commanded the beetle to walk him around, as there were no perfect machines or buildings there . All the structures there were large, and they were similar to what could be found in the Forbidden City .
The further Han Sen ventured through that place, the more ruins and destruction there was to witness . Han Sen eventually came to a ruin that was in better condition than the others .
After Han Sen came to the edge of the building, he looked out and saw something very strange .

There was a sky out there . It wasn’t strange to see the sky, as the sanctuary had a sky . But the sanctuary’s sky was different from the sky of a normal planet . There were many planets in space, but no one knew what was above the sky in the sanctuary .
Han Sen stood where he was, looking out into space . It looked just like the space he could see from any planet in the Alliance, but the stars he could see from there seemed closer than usual . It made him feel suppressed, somewhat .
Han Sen flew up into the sky and took a look at the crystallizer buildings from above . He noticed the place had been built atop a meteor, and it was actually floating through space . Han Sen did not know if he was in the Alliance, though, as there were no constellations he could see that were familiar to him .
Han Sen summoned his beetle . After entering, he brought out his map of the galaxy . He only wanted to give it a go and see if it worked, and it did . The map displayed his location without issue .
Han Sen was in a system called the Ya Chuan System . There were seven or eight areas there that had been taken by the Alliance .
Han Sen determined the specific place he was in; a barren stretch of space that the Alliance hadn’t yet claimed . But at least he knew now that he was back in the Alliance . It would take a long time to get to familiar territory from where he was . It would be annoying to go back, so Han Sen remained on the meteor .
The beetle scanned the meteor, and Han Sen learned that the meteor was once part of a planet that had shattered . The crystallizer buildings were part of a big control room, and this was all that was now left of it .
Han Sen couldn’t learn anything more amidst those ruins, so he returned to the room . He checked out the man in the tank . The armor the man wore was a geno armor, and that meant he was not in the top ten Son of God’s . He hadn’t come there for a baptism .
“Then who is he? Was he one of the people that once controlled this place? Or was he perhaps an invader?” Han Sen looked at the man .
Han Sen did not know if he was living or not, so he didn’t dare open the tank .
To be able to own geno armor, you had to be very powerful . Han Sen wasn’t confident . He wasn’t in the Fifth Sanctuary, and he could not make use of his own geno armor .
Han Sen had a set of crystal armor, but his body could not harness a sufficient amount of power to make use of it efficiently . As Han Sen mulled what to do, he heard the sound of katcha . Something broke, and then he witnessed the crystal tank open .
The crystal tank, that was as tall as a tree, started to open up from the upper regions . When the tank opened, the liquid didn’t splash out as Han Sen had expected . Instead, it hovered in the air, remaining inside the now open tank .
Han Sen looked at the man with caution . As he was thinking about whether or not to leave, the man opened his eyes .
A pair of black eyes stared at Han Sen, and it made his heart jump .
