Tald felt a surge of determination rising within him, ready to unleash a fierce declaration, when suddenly, an overwhelming aura descended upon him without restraint.
"Vacuum Wave!!!"
At that moment, true fear gripped him. He thought these were reinforcements summoned by Cydis, so the tendrils on his back intertwined once more, forming a strange pattern. He unleashed a blinding white light, accompanied by a piercing shriek that echoed through the air.
"Ah!!!"
Cydis was momentarily stunned as well, but she quickly regained her composure. Just as she was about to question Tald, she noticed he wore an expression of sheer terror, which made her realize something was amiss.
However, it was too late for her to escape. A terrifying Vacuum Wave surged forth like relentless ocean waves, seemingly infinite in its impact.
Even though she had gathered all her strength and summoned six or seven Treants in front of her, facing such a high-speed vibrating Vacuum Wave only allowed them to hold for a brief moment before they shattered into countless wooden splinters.
"Boom!!"
Cydis spat out a mouthful of green blood, her body feeling like a punctured water bag as dark green liquid splattered everywhere. Yet, with a grim expression, she was propelled backward.
At that moment, the deity watched the two panicking figures on the screen and immediately displayed a satisfied smile, cheerfully ordering, "Underworld Warriors, set up the barrier!"
A barrier?
Ye Kai couldn't help but chuckle at the absurdity. What had this deity been watching recently?
How did they come up with a barrier?
But looking at the deity's crescent-moon-shaped eyes and hearing her adorable voice, he decided not to dwell on it any longer; he would just continue watching.
Soon after, he saw the Underworld Warriors pull out an object from their bodies. It resembled a piece of exquisite blue crystal, shaped like a diamond and sparkling with clarity.
" hehe, this is the Energy Crystal Ore used for setting up barriers. Of course, you can also use the pure energy from Life Crystal and Cosmic Cube for the same purpose."
The deity suddenly turned her eyes, her chubby face full of flattering smiles. " Lord God, I infused a bit of special metal into some Energy Crystal Ore, which is just right for creating a suitable barrier."
"Each gem has six runes on it. When used individually, they can provide six different abilities: one for defense, one for confusion, one for vibration, one for light restriction, and then there are the ice and fire runes."
As Girl spoke, she opened her palm, and a crystal began to slowly float up, gently rotating in the air, silent and serene.
Ye Kai tossed it in his hand; he didn’t feel anything special about it, but he could easily channel his thoughts into it. Instantly, the crystal floated lightly in front of him, emitting a faint Halo.
I see now!!!
The effects of these individual runes aren't very significant, but once the energy within these rune crystals is calibrated to the same frequency and then activated together, it results in a cumulative explosion of power!
Truly clever calculations.
This is the brilliance of the deity; as long as someone can come up with good ideas and suggestions, she can gradually supplement them until completion.
If someone can produce a finished product, then the deity can further enhance its power by a certain ratio.
Of course, this involves far too many complex elements that Ye Kai absolutely does not want to fully understand; that would be too troublesome and give him a headache.
Anyway, he just needs to be a good Lord God, controlling the overall situation. As for who should do what or specific planning arrangements, there are dedicated people to handle that.
For example, using the 'confusion' rune will temporarily affect the senses of all nearby Creatures. However, when used alone, its effect is quite poor and lasts only about a minute.
The effects of other runes are similar. The key point is that as long as there is energy left in these crystals, activating the runes using abilities like Mental Power or Psychokinesis will allow their effects to continue indefinitely.
“Girl, tell me the truth, do you still have those good things in your hands?” Ye Kai's heart stirred as he immediately recalled his armor, which had already undergone several updates and evolutions. If he could acquire these abilities, wouldn’t that make him even more powerful?
With that, even if he ran around alone, it wouldn’t be a problem. He just needed to create more crystal stones and then fill his Holy Armor with a network of crystal stone nodes, right?
Then he could control the weather with a wave of his hand and cause the earth to quake with a stomp…
Lost in thought, Ye Kai became entranced.
“I knew it would be like this!”
The deity glanced at the Lord God, who was once again lost in his fantasies, pouting and muttering helplessly.
“Ah!!! I’m going to kill you all!!!”
Cydis was nearly driven mad. No matter what means she employed, she couldn’t escape this pitch-black ground. A strange vibration continued to intensify, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably, as if her heart were about to explode from discomfort.
She was down to only two Treants, and her body was covered in numerous small wounds, from which fine streams of blood occasionally sprayed.
Not far from her, just twenty meters away from the lake’s surface, Tald had also fallen into despair.
No matter what kind of attack he used, even revealing all his trump cards, he couldn’t break through this Strange Barrier; not even a ripple was stirred.
He didn’t even know where these people had come from or what their purpose was in trapping them!
He was completely in the dark, and no matter how much he shouted until his throat was hoarse, no one came to tell him what this was all about!
“Bring those few guys to the laboratory; I want to personally load them with the Loyalty Program.”
With this, even if it is not immediately useful, they can slowly build their influence here, and perhaps it will come in handy later, she thought contentedly.
After all, it was written in the texts that one should never underestimate anyone, even if they are merely a servant or a subordinate; one might inadvertently stumble upon a cheat code!
Furrowing her brows, she decided it would be best to capture those two test subjects quickly. After all, if anything unexpected happened, the Lord God might not care, but she was a deity—how could she afford to make a mistake?
Moreover, these two creatures could change their forms at will, which presented a highly significant research topic.
If she could decipher this pattern, could it also be applied in other fields?
Oh right, if it could truly be applied elsewhere, for instance to robots, would it not create something akin to Transformers?
The Lord God had provided her with countless sci-fi films, but those metal shells were far too fragile; they could be taken down by mere bullets. It was simply embarrassing for Transformers!
Look at those Transformers in the animated series; even when hit head-on by energy weapons, they remained largely unscathed. Then consider those so-called blockbuster films where characters were taken out by simple copper bullets—she couldn't help but curl her lip in disdain.
If she were to create something, it had to be the strongest...
Well, although she didn't know how it would turn out, at least she could make those metal shells look like they were miles behind.
