Chapter 2127: Chapter 1688: Anthony Is Actually a Master of Magic Arrays

The Starforger finished speaking and looked at the Monarch with tension.

Regardless of whether the Monarch agrees or disagrees, it remains tense. If he disagrees, in the next moment it will face the Monarch’s attack. If he agrees, the situation might be worse because the opposite side is confident enough to disregard its full power.

In either scenario, the Starforger knows that it’s in big trouble.

But it can’t help but take the gamble, hoping that the other side is foolish enough to allow it to exert its full strength despite clearly being weak.

The Monarch nodded: "Okay, go prepare, unleash your full strength."

The Starforger was startled in his heart by the swift agreement. The other side seemingly had immense confidence in their strength—this is the worst-case scenario.

The Starforger internally slapped itself, thinking how impulsively it had provoked such a formidable foe with a mere blink.

However, there’s no time for regret, and the Starforger changed direction, carrying the giant hammer towards the extinguished God Star.

Anthony shouted: "Big Cat."

The lazy Big Cat lying on Ange’s head raised its head in confusion to look at Anthony.

Anthony rubbed his forehead, realizing the Big Cat hadn’t battled together with them before, so the lack of coordination is understandable. But why was the Big Cat also reacting so sluggishly? Had it been too long since they fought together?

Frustrated, Anthony pointed at the Starforger’s direction, suggesting: "Shatter the space, don’t let him get away."

Both the Big Cat and Big Mouth opened their mouths widely and yawned.

The Starforger arrived at the God Star, turned to glance at the Monarch, and unhesitatingly slammed the hammer against the hard shell of the God Star.

With a loud roar, a gigantic door rose from the ground, emitting a dazzling light.

The Starforger laughed heartily: "Goodbye, fools."

It charged through the door it had breached.

Durken and Xisluo watched the Starforger through their "King’s Vision." At the moment the door was breached, Durken looked at the King’s Vision in his hand and exclaimed: "Cracked."

The team’s thoughts scanned through it, and they observed within the squares of the King’s Vision, one square inexplicably cracked, the continuous lines seemed to be sliced through, severing it.

However, the next moment, an invisible fluctuation caused those lines to shiver, forming waves, and the fractured points quickly mended.

The Starforger emerged from the other end of the door, flinging itself onto the God Star’s shell, with a bewildered expression: Where is this place? What am I doing?

The Monarch, while polishing his Death Scythe against his finger bones, jested: "We meet again, how quick was our reunion. Show me what strength you have left."

The Starforger stood up, looked deeply at the Monarch, and felt despair swell in its heart. It accepted its fate, swinging the hammer relentlessly against the God Star’s shell.

Escape is impossible, the opposition’s strength far exceeded its understanding. When did this terrifying Incremental Body appear within the Void? Although normal Incremental Bodies are powerful, they shouldn’t be unstoppable.

Yet, the opponent was too arrogant, indeed granting it the opportunity to deploy its full capacity. If it manages to complete the Array that has always been incomplete, it could potentially counter-attack unexpectedly.

With each swing of the hammer by the Starforger, the ground’s Array continuously formed, gradually assembling into a more vast and complex array.

Anthony and others concentrated on watching the Starforger’s actions.

Due to Anthony’s professional prowess in deceit, everyone perceived him as an Old God Stick, completely forgetting that he was also a master of Magic Arrays, having designed and built the Master Plane’s first Rebirth Altar.

The Rebirth Altar converted non-physical Undead into physical Black Warriors, enabling many Undead, who weren’t adept at Magic, to transmigrate into Black Warriors and continue practicing martial techniques.

And the Rebirth Altar was constructed combining various arrays, embodying Anthony’s complete understanding of Magic Arrays.

Anthony pointed at the Starforger’s hammered Array, explaining: "Although it uses Origin Power, the principles of Magic Arrays remain unchanged. The first step is constructing the energy circuits; without energy flow, a Magic Array is merely a diagram."

"As long as it’s an energy circuit, it demands two points: one high, one low. With both, the Energy Potential is formed, energy will flow from the high to the low point. We must first identify its high point to determine where the energy is input."

Anthony’s words promptly enlightened everyone, prompting them to search for the high point of Energy Potential.

But after a few glances, Negris inquired confusedly: "Why do I perceive identical energy intensity?"

Anthony replied: "It hasn’t started constructing the circuit yet; it’s forming points that appear to be the high points, or the energy input positions. When we set up Magic Arrays, we also embed Magic Crystal Stones; these arrays will seemingly replace the Magic Crystal’s function, their energy intensity is rising, drawing energy from the surroundings."

Negris scrutinized for a while, puzzled, asking: "Why can’t I sense the energy type? Isn’t it using Origin Power, which type of Origin is it?"

Annoyed, Anthony said: "It only uses Origin Power to construct the Array; it doesn’t mean the input energy to the Array is also Origin Power. Can’t you sense the Incremental energy?"

Incremental energy is a power exclusive to Incremental Bodies; ordinary individuals cannot sense it.

Durken previously crafted equipment to sense Incremental energy, yet without such a device, Negris, in its Star Descendant form, can’t perceive Incremental energy.

"Ah, Incremental energy?" Negris was shocked and immediately shared Ange’s Vision.

Looking through Ange’s eyes, it indeed saw each array continuously extracting Incremental energy from the God Star.

Though this was an extinguished God Star, with a thick shell on its surface, there were still remnants, akin to a wooden boat with three pounds of nails, the residual Incremental energy being drained by the Array can still yield sufficient amounts to drive its operation.

Subsequently, the Starforger hammered out an entirely different array beside the energy array.

Negris asked: "What is this array?"

Anthony replied: "Arrays are to orderly release energy; reckless and rampant energy, no matter how strong, only disrupts the array. Hence, the second step establishes buffer storage energy circuits; these corresponding arrays are naturally storage circuits."

"Directly releasing Incremental energy equates to Incremental energy attack. Is this guy intending to attack Your Majesty with Incremental energy? Too straightforward. If it isn’t using Incremental energy for direct attacks, then the next step is transmutation, converting Incremental energy into another form." Anthony commented.

The Starforger indeed began hammering out a third array.

Anthony continued: "No matter how complex an array is, it holds a core function: attack, defense, or transmutation. The core function of my Rebirth Altar is transmutation, hence it concluded at that step." ℴ

"It’s obvious this guy’s arranged array isn’t for transmutation, so it will proceed to a fourth step, the array’s core function."

At this point, the Starforger suddenly leapt into the air, raising its giant hammer high, exerting full force. The hammer’s size dramatically expanded tens of times before descending, enveloping the three hammered arrays.

Anthony explained: "Any array requires unity, forming energy circuits. Earlier, it created independent three-layer arrays, to unify them requires constructing energy circuits among the layers."

Once the hammer struck down, energy circuits instantaneously formed between all energy arrays, storage arrays, and transmutation arrays, illuminating the entire array. Light swiftly flowed from the energy points towards the storage and transmutation points.

Anthony stated: "Alright, Energy Potential formed, with energy potential difference, energy begins flowing. Just hammer in the core imprint, and the entire array will complete."

As Anthony spoke, the Starforger hammered its final blow into the array’s center.

All the energy converged onto the core, a mass of shadow slowly emerged on the core.

Witnessing the shadow, Anthony and others’ eyes bulged: "Stacked Ghost!?"
