Chapter 2752: Three Groups
*Zush, zush, zush, zush, zush, zush, zush...*
Suddenly, almost a hundred people appeared in the room outside, with Rean, Romario, and Kentucky. Droman, Rean's Master, led the group. "I heard everything, Rean. Still, this
Dimensional Realm is enormous. It won't be easy."
Rean and Romario exchanged a knowing glance. "We know that. We will have to coordinate our efforts to get things going."
Galapasan, one of the Formations Master, couldn't help but ask. "Isn't there a bigger problem? We will need to build this formation all over the Leviathan's Dimensional Realm. This is not something we can simply hide from them. Would they allow us to build it?"
"Don't worry," Romario quickly spoke. "I haven't spent all these years here for nothing. My teaching regarding Circuitry Formations is being taught everywhere. By now, everyone wouldn't think much about the formations."
"I still think the Leviathans would keep an eye on you, though," said Kentucky. "Since they are also learning about them, they will eventually notice the Formations' peculiarities, no?"
"It doesn't matter even if they notice," Roamrio reassured. "After all, what we will be using is not a Teleport Formation, but something different that will swap the Dimensional Realms. But... Yes, it would be complicated if they start asking questions. Once again, that's the problem with our lack of time. If I had the hundreds of years I intended to use at first, I would be able to build and hide them slowly."
"Then let's go for the opposite," Rean spoke. "Let's make this formation so fast that by the time the Leviathans start questioning, it will be too late."
Rean turned to the other Formations Masters. "We have the simulation of the Circuitry Formation Repository, the replica of the Dimensional Realm, and the Leviathans' Dimensional Realm. Since that's the case, we will work in three different groups. One for simulation and tests, one for building the formations inside the replica Dimensional Realm, and the last will work in the Leviathan's Realm."
Romario thought about it. "If that's the case, we will probably have no more than four or five years to finish everything before the Leviathans truly get suspicious."
Droman was surprised. "Are you able to hold them back for this long?"
"This long?" Romario snorted. "Four or five years is nothing compared to the job we have ahead of us. Even with all your help, I don't think we could finish a prototype of the real thing in less than fifty years in normal circumstances, let alone four or five. We will have to work to the death and with a high chance of failure, so don't get complacent. Remember, you know the Circuitry Formations, but you don't know the ones I use. You will have to learn as you work, too. Four to five years. That's the best I can do before the Leviathans intervene." Droman sighed. Indeed, that was quite short. "Sorry, my mistake. I was just impressed you could prevent the Leviathans from intervening with our work for that long."
"It's fine," Romario didn't mind. "But before that, I believe Rean has something else to deal with first, right?"
Rean nodded. "We need to have Sonzei be accepted, and for that, he will have to win his fight against another Leviathan. No, even before that, we have to convince the Leviathans that such a battle to prove his worth is even necessary."
In the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, there was a body fallen in a pool of blood in a certain area. There, time passed a hundred times faster, which used a lot of Divine Origin Energy Cores.
Roan approached the 'dead' body... and kicked it. "Get up! What kind of bullshit is this? You get a few scratches here and there and are already in the ground?" Roan then turned around and spoke to Lisia. "Continue. He is fine and has no need for healing. If he doesn't fight, just kill him outright."
Lisia sighed as she looked at Sonzei's precarious situation. What she did to him could be called anything but a few scratches. Some of his bones could be seen, not counting the ones broken. If anything, it looked more like he could die at any moment. 'Don't blame me, little boy. If I don't, I will be the one to suffer at Ancestor Roan's Hands later,' Lisia thought to herself.
Sonzei felt the presence of death looming over his head and immediately raised his harpoon. *Clang!*
Lisia's sword hit it and then disappeared. Another two swords came from two different sides, aiming at vital points in Sonzei's body. Sure enough, it was the Three Claws of the Dragon that she had just used, which was adapted to be used with her Wind Element Affinity.
However, Sonzie didn't give up and jumped back, using a water element movement technique Roan developed for him. Following that, his Harpoon exploded with Lightning Element, reinforced by his leviathan Bloodline. With a sweep, both words were hit at the same time, nullifying the attack.
Sonzei only knew he had an affinity with Water Element. Yet, after Roan's fight against Olvris, it became obvious that the Leviathan Bloodline also had a high affinity with Lightning Element. Thus, Roan changed Sonzei's cultivation technique to support both elements at the same time. Not to mention, it was now many times better than before, allowing Sonzei to cultivate much faster. Too bad he didn't have time for breakthroughs.
The moment Sonzei blocked the swords, he looked to the side, expecting a follow-up from Lisia. Yet, it didn't come. Instead, a leg on his back, kicking it and sending Sonzei flying. Lisia hit Sonzei once again. Nonetheless, she was impressed by Sonzei's progress. He was in a truly bad state, but he could still offer such resistance.
Sonzei hit his head against a rock. He tried to use his Divine Energy to protect it, but he was almost empty, so the effect was negligible. In the next second, he passed out.
Lisia then landed near Sonzei. "Ancestor, he is truly at the limit. Can you heal him now?"
Roan nodded and approached, quickly activating Rean's Instant Recovery skill. The difference in cultivation was truly big between him and Sonzei, so the healing only took a few seconds to bring Sonzei back from the brink of death to a completely healthy body.
