1313 Testing The Pagoda's Layers - Part 2
It was a very useful ability to trap the enemy inside the area of effect of this structure. It also meant this layer should be activated after activating either one from the first two layers.
The first layer swept the entire area with the energy flood from the structure, and the second one changed the shape this energy came out with.
So the one controlling this structure had to take note of that.
The second thing I thought about was the amount of energy expenditure. Activating the third layer jumped the energy expenditure up to five percent.
That meant if the dark gold bones gave me over two months time after using the first layer, then by using the third one, it’d only last for around twelve days.
That was a big decrease in the time provided by my bones. And I knew such time would greatly be lowered when using the silver grade bones.
“Tsk! And that’s just by activating the third layer. What will happen when I activate the fifth layer then?”
Even if this looked bad, it wasn’t! After all, such layers would be activated to do an instant effect before getting stopped.
The first layer would act as the base of all this, weakening the strength of the enemy and strengthening the defences of mine. Then the second layer would act to destabilise the enemy forces, forcing them to lose their ground.
Then the third layer would kick in and trap them into these bubbles.
I knew by logic, the next two techniques would do something based on this. And that meant if anyone was going to use these layers, he or she would just use these layers in succession to cause an immediate effect.
Then the controller would either stop using these layers, or just return to the basic layer and use its technique as the base.
That meant no matter how scary the expenditure rate turned out to be, the bones would still stay for a long time.
And that was the silverlining hope I had. Of course I needed to test this theory out first, and also try to see what the effects of these layers over my defences would be.
The first layer affected my defences and weakened the damage received, and the next layers would have more effects on my defences by logic.
However I couldn’t tell what such effects would be without testing.
And then I started to activate the fourth layer.
As I guessed, the fourth layer once activated, the bubbles that took shape before started to change.
First the energy coming out from the structure began to be like threads. These threads were similar to my threads, and they went all the way towards the bubbles and surrounded them tighter.
From the surface, nothing more happened, but I knew that wasn’t the case. As I was the one controlling everything, and my energy was connected with the structure energy, I could feel everything that’s happening right now.
The moment these threads encircled the bubbles, the space inside started to experience a great increase in pressure.
It was like the threads were squeezing and pressuring the bubbles and making the space compressed.
I was sure if anyone was entrapped inside right now, he would feel immense pressure and get harmed quite badly.
But it wasn’t enough! It might be considered an offensive strike, but it wasn’t that strong to take down the strong enemies.
What it could do would only be limited to heavy wounds, but not even close to being life threatening wounds.
But as the fourth layer started to show such change, then I got my hopes off the roof for the fifth layer.
With such expectations, I started to activate the fifth layer.
The moment I activated the fifth layer, everything around changed!
First the energy expenditure got a sharp increase without any warning. The fourth layer got the energy consumption rate up to fifteen percent.
However the moment the fifth layer got activated, I felt like the energy in the entire structure was sucked out at an alarming rate!
Without the need to check, almost half of the energy got sucked dry by this layer!
But that didn’t matter. The energy that got sucked was done by the threads surrounding the bubbles. And then the entire bubble structure felt like it got attracted to fire, and exploded all without an exception!
It wasn’t a simple wave of explosion. What happened was for the entire compressed space inside to get shattered!
It didn’t just explode, it simply got annihilated! As if it didn’t even exist in the first place!
I could tell that quite well as I was feeling every single change happening out there. But when I looked around, the entire region showed a scary change.
First came the explosion. It was so fierce to create a shocking shockwave. But that didn’t even affect me as the entire structure seemed to be proactively protected.
Then after the explosion a scary thunderous noise appeared followed by all the dust, rubbles, and fire that emanated from these explosions to retreat back to where things started.
I saw everything get compressed into something like black balls, looking like black holes. The balls kept sucking everything around and compressing it before another explosion appeared.
And that one was much fiercer than the first, and it expanded for a much wider distance.
“Damn! That was very cool!” I couldn’t contain my excitement anymore. The overbearing offensive attack finally appeared, and it wasn’t just targeting the ones trapped inside the bubbles.
pAnD a(-)n0ve1.com If anyone from the enemy got freed, or they just came in from outside as reinforcements, then they’d get smashed with such shockwaves and the following compressing and exploding actions.
That was what I’d call a perfect offensive attack! No matter what, even with silver grade bones, even if my forces went all the way to the enemy backlines or their worlds, nothing could pose a threat to my forces this way.
