The Bloodline System

Author's Note: Unedited Chapter

--------------------

"Don't be too shocked when I reveal my full strength... master," Gustav added.

"I won't be... but the world... the universe... shock them," Miss Aimee smiled as she responded.

As they got out of the spacecraft,  a bunch of people clad in weird looking outfits were spotted approaching them from up ahead.

They had landed in a vicinity where thousands of spacecraft could be seen. It was really an epic sight to behold.

The numbers exiting the numerous spacecraft were very high too.

The earth IYSOP candidates could spot all sort of unknown looking lifeforms scattered across the place.

The ground was golden and not a single speck of sand could be seen in the vicinity. Triangular structures with long metallic looking rod at the tops that pierced into the sky could also be seen far ahead.

"Planet Ozious welcomes earth candidates," The people dressed in flowing silky garments finally arrived before them.

Two of them had a pair of long antennas protruding from their rough looking brownish head.

These antennas had green eyeballs planted at their tips which made the candidates feel a little unnerved as they didn't know whether to stare at their faces or the eyeballs above the antenna.

They were all aware of the appearance  of Planet Ozious natives but seeing them in person was a whole lot different.

The two that had approached them introduced themselves after tapping on a language transmitting device in their possession.

"I am Handler 27," The one with a small whitish mark on its forehead spoke first.

"And I am Handler 28... we will be directing you to the entry and registration point," The second one replied.

"I can't tell who is male and who is female between the two," E.E whispered to Gustav as they began walking.

"They're both females," Gustav replied.

"Whut? How do you know?" E.E questioned in a low tone.

"They have smaller eyeballs," Gustav responded once more.

"Huh? Those are small?" E.E couldn't help but express his look of shock.

Both handlers had eyeballs that were as large as fists which explained E.E's look of surprise.

"You do know it might be considered racist if you kept sizing them up like that," Falco voiced from the side.

"I can't help it... damn this is my first time every making contact with an alien," E.E sounded excited as he looked around.

Everyone was heading in the same direction.

The massive entry point that looked like a giant 'n' with an energy barrier within.

"If you are not deemed powerful enough, the barrier will restrict your entry," Handler 27 stated.

"Oh? So its already like a test upon arrival?" Teemee questioned.

"Something of the sorts but it is a filter... only those worthy are capable of getting through," Handler 28 replied.

They stared at the numbers heading towards the entry point and realised they were in the thousands.

Gustav wasn't surpised since he had made research about the participating planets before this.

There were up to three thousand planets participating and each planet had twenty main participants just like them. This meant the total number of participants were over sixty thousand.

Currently only a couple of thousands could be seen heading towards the entry point which meant some hadn't arrived and some had arrived earlier.

Earth participants got to planet Ozious four days before IYSOP began. It was still a period where planets would be coming in.

Bang!

A person up ahead with two layers of fur covered got blasted backwards the instant they made contact with the barrier surrounding the entry point.

"Oooof looks like someone is unworthy," Ria voiced out.

"ouch," Angy hit him lightly with her elbow from the side.

"Don't make fun of the weak," She muttered.

The group arrived in front of the entry point and kept walking forward with looks of confidence.

The others in the vicinity were stopping and slowly stretching forth their hand to see if the barrier would grant them access while Gustav and the others just walked through unbothered.

Step! Step! Step! Step!

Eyes from every corner was planted on them as they phased through unbothere and unrestricted.

Their entry caused a chain of reaction and others also tried to move in immediately. Some phased through easily while others had to push with with all their strength before they were given access.

A few got blasted backwards like the other unknown planet candidate.

The instant Gustav and the others arrived on the other side, a look of fascination appeared on their faces.

"Finally we're here,"

-------

Hours later, Gustav and the others stood within a tall structure and stared through the transparent walls to view a foreign city.

Flying objects could be seen moving from place to place and triangular structures erected. Sands didn't exist on this planet yet there was a massive plant like structure deep in the heart of this foreign city.

The roads were copper colored mostly and the blinding light of the star that illumated the entire galaxy could be spotted on the southeast area.

They could even see the outline of other similar planets in Flalencia galaxy, giving the sky a beautiful look.

"They mentioned that the competition will have different categories and multiple locations for different stages," Falco voiced from the side.

"Some of the categories are not mandatory but they are good for accumulating extra points according to the handlers," He added.

"Yeah and there are also mandatory categories where the whole team will be involved from what I've gathered. For the unmandatory categories, we could split and have smaller numbers take care of them. Not everyone has to participate," Aildris voiced as well.

"Which categories should we participate in?" E.E questioned.

Everyone turned to stare at Gustav at this moment.

"We will be participating in every single category... no one is getting the opportunity to slack off," Gustav replied.

The group began chuckling upon hearing this. None of them were interested in slacking off. They wanted to accumulate as many points as they could for the sake of earth's win.

"I will split everyone properly when the time arrives so you know the unmandatory category you'll be participating in," Gustav added.

##########

Within another area where a group of twenty unknown planet participants were situated, a similar scene to what had played out with Gustav and the others was repeating itself.

"Captain, what do we do?" One of the candidates who had a blueish face with a stalk at the top of his head voiced out.

"We're participating in the categories that complement our strengths. And we must win," The captain who had a similar head look but with a broader body responded.

They all agreed as he began to give out instructions.

~"Ehistu mafikolo eidu renu basiti rlmah..."

In another area, a purple mist headed figure with red scales on the rest of his body voiced out.

The were speaking in their native language which would be incoherent to any earthling.

"I have made research on all of the planets who lead the alliance, we just need to watch out for a few. We will gather a lot of points,"

The translation device would have interpreted his first statement as this.

~"Akistah Vindulud Prime eiti torial vatu terila bati Tharlokans..."~

"Vindulus Prime and the Tharlorkans might be the only threat to us out of the hundred alliance leaders,"

The figure kept speaking.

~"Aitan shima utan?"~

"So what do we do captain?"

The captain purple mist face formed a shape that made the others who looked just like him gasp.

The days went by very quickly and during this time over two thousand planets had made it to Flalencia Galaxy.

Just one day was left before IYSOP would kick off and the rest of the planets had only today to arrive or they would be disqualified.

This day being the deadline for registration, hundreds upon hundreds of planets kept arriving one after the other.

They numbered in over ten thousand participants that showed up before the day ended. This was a high number compared to the day Gustav and the others had arrived.

Ultimately the day ended and about a hundred planets still failed to meet up with the deadline. This was to be expected since it was possible to have last minute deterring.

The night before IYSOP kickoff was a very long one. Every participant were on their toes as indescribable feelings of excitement bubbled from deep within.

The universe was going to watch them show their prowess. This was also an opportunity to get leadership of the resource that every planet under the alliance was gunning for.

Gustav stood atop a triangular building as he stared down at the city with a solemn expression.

"It is time," He voiced as the star that illuminated the nine layered disk planet, appeared in the distance.

A vortex opened up right beside him at that moment and E.E appeared by his side.

"Are you ready?" E.E questioned with an excited expression.
