BZZZZ!
[Warning! Powerful Spatial energy fluctuation detected!]
[Ultra-long range teleportation portal detected!]
[Currently engaging ultra-long-range teleportation…, please brace yourself!]
[Warning! You have been caught in a powerful Spatial Storm!]
Wom! Wom! Wom!
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
The Legolas Baron shook and wobbled through the spatial storm.
Loud sounds reverberated everywhere like the warship was dancing inside the spatial storm. To many of the people and players present, this was a first as they all braced for impact in various ways.
Seated at the chair of the captain of the warship, Christensen rapidly directed an inquisitive look at the Nak consultant that Champion Onana assigned here.
"Is this how normal ultra-long-range teleportation is?"
"I-I…" This engineer also seemed to be shaken and horrified as he stammered.
'Sh*t!' Christensen cursed in his mind.
Standing up from the chair, he forced his way through all the shaking to the position of the engineer as he grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him awake.
"Wake up!"
"This is not the time to be panicking, you're the chief engineer here, you have the most knowledge about anything that is probably going on".
"Take a deep breath".
The engineer nodded rapidly and took a deep breath.
"Now look at me".
He looked at Christensen.
"Tell me, do you know what is happening?"
Wom! Wom! Wom!
[Warning! You have been caught in a Spatial Storm!]
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
This frightened engineer looked at the warning notifications. Feeling his terror, Christensen patted his shoulders to give him assurance that he was safe, this was what finally gave this engineer the nerve to speak.
He looked at Christensen. "It's a spatial storm, I've never encountered it before but I've read about it and I have heard of it in stories".
Christensen's eyes narrowed. "What is a spatial storm?"
"Warp travel is a technological spatial phenomenon whereby more than 1 space is compressed and folded together, enabling a spaceship with an FTL drive to travel through the compressed space like it was one".
"A spatial storm occurs when the space compressed at a time is too much, and hence the unstable energies causes a storm of space energy".
"It is extremely destructive". This engineer's eyes showed fear.
"What are our chances?" Christensen looked into his eyes.
"A-another thing…" The engineer stammered. "There are 2 types of spatial storms, the artificial spatial storms and the natural ones".
"Natural space storms are those that occur naturally".
"Artificial space storms are induced by sentient activity, mostly by mistake or a malfunction of FTL drive but others are induced for malicious purposes".
"There are numerous reports of spatial storms every year, 60% of spaceship crews survive 60% of the artificial ones if they are lucky".
"What of the natural?" Christensen's eyes narrowed.
"Unless there's a Beyond Grade A Super in the spaceship, there is a 100% death rate when caught in a naturally occurring spatial storm".
"There are rumors of it being even capable of killing Beyond Grade As…"
"That does not matter". Christensen cut the engineer off. "Tell me, what we are experiencing, is it a natural one or an artificial one?"
"…" This engineer looked around in fear.
"If it was a natural one, we'd all be dead already".
…
Bam! Bam!
"Ouch, what the f*ck!"
Sleeping cheerfully on his bed in his cabin in the Legolas Baron, Legolas already ate some light food to freshen up, preparing himself for the entertainment that would come from the international tournament when it started.
As soon as the spatial storm started, the cabins were affected even more as the force of the warship's movement literally threw him back and forth like he was a miserable piece of cloth stuck inside a spinning watching machine.
Instantly, the effects of the enhanced alcohol left Legolas' eyes.

He didn't even need the engineer's explanation to know, having engaged in space travel countless times in his previous life and having died to it twice, he knew exactly what this was.
His eyes narrowed. "A spatial storm!"
He charged straight towards the command center of the warship.
…
50 players were chosen and carried to space by Legolas.
These 50 players were some of the strongest players produced by Planet Darvis. Another thing was, they were the most loyal to the Nightmare Army.
While this emergency took the Legolas Baron by storm, causing panic everywhere, the players felt none of it, they only felt annoyed.
"F*ck! What's this disturbance when the tournament is about to start?"
"What the heck?!"
"Lower your sensitivity, it should allow us focus on the tournament".
Once the suggestion came, every single one of the 50 players followed it.
[Player Sensitivity to world has been reduced to 10%]
[Warning! You will no longer be able to enjoy the game's realism with this low setting!]
"Good". The players were satisfied.
Since players were spread across the expansive galaxy of Dominator and since they could not meet in one location to challenge in the international tournament, the location for the battles was instead made in a virtual setting.
While the crew of the Legolas Baron feared for their lives, the carefree players already left them to fend for themselves as they went into the raucous virtual world where the tournament was being held.
"And the first individual battle starts now!"
[Player #TheNoselessSorcerer vs Legolas1stStudent!]
The battle between this mage and the Summoner who called himself Legolas' student started instantly and it was fast-paced and bloody.
"Hell yeah, kill him!"
"Roast him alive!"
"Rain those fireballs on him!"
"Stomp that foolish Voldemort with your tamed beasts' brother!"
"Don't let the Army Commander down, you can do it!"
Amid the raucous and hyped-up atmosphere, in the end, the Summoner upheld the reputation of the Army Commander, he won.
4 more exciting individual battles were fought before the most hyped battle of the first stage of the internationals finally started.
[Team Blue Autumn vs Team K-Conquerors!]
Raining Sword looked at Horny Assassin again. "Remember that you're our secret trump card, don't ever make any move without my instruction".
"Yes, Sword God Henry".
"If one of us is killed and you enter the game, always pay attention to our private in-game group chat, you'll always see my instructions there".
"Yes, Sword God Henry".
"Let the battle begin!"
Once they went on stage, the first team battle began.
While all these happened, inside the warship where they traveled, there was still a great deal of pandemonium as Christensen and Legolas tried to calm the panicking nerves after he arrived.
They were caught in the spatial storm for 5 agonizing minutes, after which they were finally pushed out of their ultra-long-range teleportation.
[Warning! Course has been altered!]
BZZZZ!
