Chapter 725 - Modifying The Array



Amera showed up first with her big smile, proud of what her friends and master were doing in her world.

"Seeming happy," Arthur said with a chuckle, "I\'m happy for your world to stand still up till now."

​​

"That\'s what the big clans should do,"\' Amera said while the other two joined at this moment.

"I beg your pardon?" Marcos asked with some aggressiveness in his tone.

"\'Your master decided to abandon the world, but my master decided to defend it," Amera crossed her arms in front of her chest before adding, "that\'s the best way to fight such war in my opinion."

"Humph, if you faced the same armies we did then you won\'t have such a smile over your face," Marcos rudely said.

"I didn\'t summon you here to fight," Arthur had to step in, "we need to go to that world."

The three glanced at him in a strange way while Amera showed a bright smile over her face. "Taking refugees at my home? That would be the best idea ever."

"What about here?" Doaf asked.

"We need to leave this place as soon as possible," Arthur said, "we don\'t have a good army here, and our condition isn\'t that great. There…" he pointed to the portal and the world lying beyond, "we can have our time to recuperate and even crush the invaders."

"Sounds like a good plan for me, I\'m in," Amera said without hesitation.

"It\'s not a good plan at all," Marcos objected, "our grandmaster will come here to this world."

"We can send him another message from there," Arthur said.

"What if the army that invaded us came to this world?" Marcos asked with some agitation.

"They won\'t," Amera was the one to answer, "after all we killed most of it and the little few ran away."

"I see this as a move we don\'t need," Marcos stuck to his opinion.

"I\'m not forcing anyone to come," Arthur calmly said, "but to your knowledge this world is completely under the dark forces\' control. We have no world\'s will to protect it and there is a great army marching at us as we speak."

Arthur decided to keep the knowledge of that army stopping in their tracks secret for now.

"I know that," Marcos said, "Doaf briefed me with this world\'s condition."

"Then you should come," Doaf spoke for the first time.

"You…"

"There our odds will be much higher and we can wait for our master without being threatened of being wiped out."

Doaf tried to persuade his friend but Marcos seemed too hard to convince.

"You out of all people should know better," Marcos sneered, "we are the mighty bronzed giants… nothing should come to our aid but our fellow giants."

"Don\'t think it that way," Doaf sighed, "\'Look at your men, our friends are all over the place. They need time to recuperate and heal. We can\'t sacrifice them for some stupid ego."

"You dare to say our creed is stupid?" Marcos thundered at Doaf who had no other option but to turn to Arthur and Amera as he said:

"The bronzed giants will join the journey."

"You…" Marcos seemed quite shocked but Doaf continued as if he didn\'t hear him.

"As the highest leader here in rank, I give you all my word."

"Thanks," Arthur said in gratitude despite knowing words weren\'t as easy as forcing everyone to leave.

He didn\'t want to leave anyone behind, but if they decided to stay back then he would simply leave them.

After all he had his own goals to seek, his life to protect, and his friends to return to.

"Excuse us then," Doaf said before grabbing his friend\'s hand and dragging him away.

"\'I doubt he would be able to convince that hard rock," Amera said in a deep tone while watching the two leave.

"I also share the same doubts," Arthur said in agreement, "\'but now we have another thing to do."

"What?" she turned to him in a strange way, "my people are ready to move the moment you call them."

"That\'s not my point," Arthur shook his head before pointing to the ground around, "the array is a problem we need to solve."

She remained silent for a brief moment before her eyes shone up with sudden realization. "The portal is one way, right?" she asked to confirm her guess.

"That\'s the problem we need to solve."

"Show me the array then," she asked, "I can\'t decide anything without studying it."

Arthur took out the blueprints of the array and let her examine them.

"This… is such an ancient array I never saw for a long time," she muttered while checking the papers in her hands, "I believe the last time I saw something like this was at the grand library of my grandmaster."

"Can you modify it?" Arthur was interested by that library and her talk about how ancient this array was, however he wanted answers for his dilemma at the moment.

"All arrays share the same principles,"\' Amera slowly said, "no matter if they are old or new."

"Good," Arthur said in relief.

"Don\'t celebrate too soon," she said to crush the hopes he just had, "I\'m just stating the obvious, but that doesn\'t mean I can do it alone."

Arthur got her meaning. "Who else do you need? Doaf?"

"And all of his top mages as well," she raised her head towards the direction Doaf and Marcos went.

"Marcos… he might be a problem," Arthur said, "I don\'t trust him."

"Me neither," she agreed, "but we need more minds if you want to modify that portal in a short time."

"Sigh," Arthur couldn\'t help but sigh while glancing at the portal and the safe world beyond, "go and try your luck with him."

"I\'ll use my magic then," she said in a mysterious way while smiling. "I\'ll keep you posted."

Arthur watched her move towards the direction of the two before returning to examine the array. "The portal will be stable in a couple hours," he muttered, "I hope she will convince him to help."

\'Ding! what if they failed?\' the system asked.
