Chapter 668: The Array

Adrian immediately studied the array while the Qilin just lazed around as it did not believe that Adrian could achieve something like that. Peridot placed multiple illusions around the exit while Saru guarded her in case someone suddenly popped out.

Adrian is using his unique vision in order to see the things that he calls as ley lines. This is one thing unique about the planet Nebulon as it is very much alive in a sense. The number of ley lines that are spread in this continent can be considered more numerous than the central continent.

It must be one of the reasons why the eastern continent is filled with more natural energy. It also contributes to the fact that the monsters in the eastern continent are more powerful and more intelligent.

"I do not have enough vision with just these two eyes." Adrian stated as he started to change his form.

"Paradox, summon the Primordial Armament: Mirror." Adrian commanded as the Cube of Paradox obeyed his command.

[You have summoned the Primordial Armament: Mirror]

[Primordial Stance: Mirror will now activate.]

Adrian changed to his different form as a blindfold covered his eyes while six mirrors with a demonic eye. He immediately multiplied all the mirrors as much as he could and sent them through different locations.

Adrian is now looking at a thousand different viewpoints like he is in front of a giant monitor that is split into a thousand sections. This view will help him in seeing what the peculiarity of the ley lines that is present in the area.

The Qilin saw Adrian's form and had a moment of curiosity but returned to being laid back. The Qilin felt a deep and immeasurable energy for a moment when the mirror appeared in front of it. It thought that Adrian would attack it, but it seemed to be more like a surveying mechanism for the area.

"Paradox, arrange the images like that of a bird's eye view of our current location." Adrian commanded in his subconscious as the real Adrian floating in the real world in a cross-legged position.

"Affirmative." The Cube of Paradox replied as it started to shuffle the thousand images that is currently appearing.

Some of the mirrors broke due to the lightning strikes or some other form of attack. It did not hinder Adrian to just regenerate the mana back using potions and Peridot healing her for the damage that he took.

The rearrangement of all the images took bit of time as Paradox could not easily get the location of each mirror due to the immense magical lighting storm in the area. It is hindering The Cube of Paradox from sensing the exact location of the mirror but the whole image became complete in under ten minutes.

"That was faster than I thought." Adrian stated as a compliment.

"The inside of your subconscious is ten times much faster than that of the time flow in the real world, Master. It is normal for this interaction to happen." The Cube of Paradox replied in a monotonous robotic voice.

"I was giving you a compliment. In other words, good job." Adrian stated as it seems that the intelligence of The Cube of Paradox does not cover the emotional quotient part of the brain.

"…" The Cube of Paradox suddenly became silent as if it became shy from the sudden praise, but Adrian did not think much of it.

"From the image up top, all the lines converge to the area we are now which means that the connection of all the ley lines should be going towards here. Although if one looks closely, it only appears to be like that as about more than half of the ley lines are interconnected to become a perfect magic circle or array as the eastern continent calls it.

The eastern continent might call the Array Masters, but they are called different on the central continent. They are called World Weavers as they could weave the fabric of reality to their bidding as long as they have a clear understanding of it.

The Array Master that created the array in this mountain should be very skilled in earth and wind elements. The ley lines have been placed to support each other while also trapping the elemental storm looming on top of this mountain." Adrian stated as he made a clear observation of how the array works.

The Qilin was not captured to be fed and raised just to be slaughtered. The Qilin is chosen as the anchor of the entire array and also the lightning rod. The whole array operates under the ability of the Qilin to siphon lightning.

The excess lightning would then be absorbed by the mountain itself in order to change its state of existence. One can say that the array is meant to make the mountain itself evolve. The thing that the Array Master wanted to strengthen is not the Qilin but it is the mountain itself.

"The thing that I need to learn now would be…what is important inside this mountain that the Array Master had to be this elaborate?" Adrian muttered to himself/

"Master, your two companions are requesting your aid as the enemy is already upon you. It seems that they could not defend you right now, but the Qilin defended you from being killed." The Cube of Paradox stated.

Adrian is released from his subconscious, and he immediately noticed that the surroundings is indeed chaotic. Peridot and Saru are injured due to the confrontation with the soldiers of the House of the Azure Dragon.

"It is about time that you woke up. I have been calling at you for five minutes now." Peridot grumbled as she had to deal with ten soldiers at a time.

"Sorry about that. I took too much time in analyzing the images presented to me. Greater Summon: Saena." Adrian stated as he summoned Saena in order to heal the wounds of the two including the Qilin that protected him from attacks.
