Chapter 3704 Essence I
Step!
"To not die," I said as I stepped on one of two good floating discs and sat down.
The crystalline protection is very powerful, but I do not have complete confidence that it could protect me if the shit went downhill. I hope it didn't, but if it does; I hope to have at least a second of protection.
Seconds passed as I looked at the huge, coppery thing.
It hadn't yet released the energy toward my disc. I am not worried as it will come, it might take a few seconds to an hour, but it will come.
Till it does, I am checking all my preparations for and over. Finding everything perfect at every inspection.
It was two minutes and forty-three seconds later, the coppery block sent the energies toward me. It is greater than I would like to have at the first time; I wanted mild, in the first shot, but no such luck.
I wanted to run away, but I controlled my emotions.
The coppery energy touched the stone disc and was absorbed by it. A moment later, the runes on it lit up a copper light and a coppery metallic mist begin to come out of it.
Buzz!
This mist seeped into the thick crystalline layer, lighting up the formation, which spread around energy through the crystalline layer, turning it into copper colored from the original blue.
'First part complete,' I thought. Feeling relieved that it didn't overwhelm the formation.
The armor sent the energy into the ashy layer, which charged it up before the energy went to the solidified red layer, which began to ripple across my body while sending waves of coppery energy, which now had a hint of purple in it.
The method which was already ready caught the energy and began to circulate.
Hun!
Immediately, a surprise couldn't help but appear on my face. The energy is much heavier than I thought, which makes the job even more difficult, seeing I need to circulate the energy at a certain speed.
I gritted my teeth and began to circulate the energy at minimum speed, while at the same me catching the waves coming behind and circulating.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
Every moment, more and more waves will come, and I have to circulate it at the minimum speed.
Minutes passed, and I watched in silence before the energy came toward my disc again.
"Fuck!"
I cursed as the disc absorbed before sending it to me.
Like before, I begin to circulate the energy. I tried to keep my calm and focused on circulating and not on the amount of energy, that came at me.
It is 61% higher than the last time and going to be difficult to circulate it, but I have no choice but to do it and I did, till it made me bleed from my orifices.
I got a few minutes of rest before energy came again, but this time, it was fractions of what had come to me in the last two times.
However, the joy was short-lived as another burst came a few seconds later, after finished another burst came. Twice as big as the first.
I dealt with it, barely.
Time passed as the small, and the big bursts of energy came at me, taking me closer and closer and closer to the limit.
Hun!
It was waiting for another burst of energy to come at me, when suddenly the copper lit up and several drops of coppery liquid moved toward the disc, with one coming toward me.
I moved to get up, but I was barely moved an inch before the tiny drop hit the disk and it blazed. Before watery coppery mist, came out through the covering my whole body, while I watched in horror.
This is the essence; it is hundreds of times denser and made of a different element than the energy.
I had only to read about it in the information. Only two sources contained the information about it, and it wasn't much other than referring it as essence and terming it different from the coppery energy.
Nobody I had inserted my seeds on had encountered it. I have not heard about anyone encountering it.
Even if they had, they were likely to inform, which would bring to my current trouble, since I didn't have any information about it. I couldn't prepare for it properly.
Now, it is seeping through my defenses, avoiding everything, without any problem.
Those defenses were specifically made for the coppery energy, and since it is not that, they didn't block it and let it come at me.
