1309 Trying The Arrays Out
Many things depended entirely over Isac. and from the look on her face, I got that she was well aware of how heavy such a task was.
“What about the defences we are currently building?” Alex spoke at last. Since that accident with her boyfriend, she has remained more quiet than ever.
“We are going to keep doing these,” I said, “but Isac will plan for places to use the method of the arrays. After all, the bones need to be buried around ten metres below the ground to work.”
“And we need to select capable soldiers to take over these arrays,” Lily added, “do we need anything in particular? Like offensive, defensive, or tactical mind based soldiers?”
“I frankly don’t know,” all I knew about this method was related to just activating the bones using the arrays. However the condition that someone must be in the centre of these arrays to control them made me doubt there were many other uses none knew about.
Or at least Silverlining wasn’t aware of any of them.
The only way to know about that was for me to use this method personally and try to see if I could exploit more of it.
One thing was worthy of note about these arrays, they looked just like the techniques of mine. For a reason, both used star shaped drawings to get activated, and both also worked over my bone energy as well.
If my guesses were right, then I could merge the two together. I didn’t know what effect doing such a thing would cause, but at least it could boost my threads and let them affect the Silence race.
That if my threads couldn’t deal with them in the first place.
“This…” Lily frowned when she heard my answer.
“We need to test many things first,” Isac said as she added, “I’ll handle the designs of the entire defensive plan, and you deal with other things.”
“I will handle the test of these arrays,” I added in agreement to her words, “as for you, go on and start selecting the capable soldiers from your armies. Select soldiers with different abilities, and let’s delay the final decision until later.”
“Shall we inform others?” Legend asked, and I nodded.
pA n,dan(-)0ve1.c0m “Tell them everything you learnt,” I paused before adding, “make them keep working on the defensive project. After Isac’s modifications would be over, she’ll take care of the already built defences.”
“Sure,” Isac nodded, “I’ll go back now and start studying these things.”
“Can I stay?” just when I thought everyone would retreat with Isac, Sara suddenly asked.
“For what?”
“I want to see how to make these arrays,” she explained before adding, “and I also want to know the real effect and possible implications of these arrays.”
I got what she wanted to do. She wanted to go into the enemy’s deeper lines and crush them. So knowing how to build these arrays in person was a must.
“You also can stay behind and learn,” if I’d allow her to stay behind, then
Legend could stay as well.
The two were the sure candidates to be sent into the deep lines of the enemy. Unlike what the two expected, they were going to invade the enemy’s main bases and worlds.
And that task required lots of courage and also preparations.
“Don’t forget to keep supporting us with warriors and materials once done,” Isac didn’t forget to remind me about this. And I simply nodded.
I just started doing this over many worlds, and yet I only finished from five worlds so far.
The rest were waiting for my return. And that perhaps was the reason behind the gathering of all these generals without any regard to their places and assigned tasks.
“Let’s start doing it,” per the drawings sent by Silverlining, I took out a few strong warriors with full stats and let them start digging the ground.
They just needed to dig the lines marking out these star shaped arrays for around one metre below the ground. But the heads of each star needed to be at least ten metres deep.
They took roughly half an hour to finish drawing the five intersecting arrays. Then they moved to the side, clearing the entire place for me to start my tests.
“Wait for me over there,” I said to the two generals and other warriors before taking out my bones.
I decided to start up using the dark gold grade bones. I wanted to see how long such bones would last, and how far their energy would cover.
I followed the same instructions in what Silverlining sent. Each bone was bound to me using one blood droplet, then I dropped these bones each in one hole.
Each hole was around five metres radius. After doing so, there was one bigger hole left at the centre.
This hole was exactly at the centre of everything. And the moment I dropped it there, the entire array suddenly shook.
The lines that got dug began to show weird flowing dark gold fluid. I didn’t know how it came, but it was related to my bones.
As for the various star heads, dark gold lights started to shine from each hole. In no time, the entire structure shone brightly in dark gold, and the lines looked like thin streams of water.
I got curious about this fluid and thought to go and try it. But the moment I moved one leg, I felt the lights coming out from these arrays start to dim.
Once I returned back to my spot, that fading disappeared and things returned to normal again.
“Tsk! That’s quite a harsh requirement,” I was now sure about the warning left in the information Silverlining sent. The ones controlling these arrays couldn’t move, or else the entire thing would crumble.
If so, then it was time to see what was so important about having someone in the centre of these arrays.
When I first tried to sense or control anything in this array, I ended up without doing anything. The arrays around were flashing in bright golden lights, but nothing else happened.
I looked around and couldn’t see any change at all in the surrounding world.
