Chapter 1379: Yggdra And Felicia's Plan
Chapter 1379: Yggdra And Felicia's Plan
After we spent an hour and a half making Bark's grave and then curse's grave at his side, and letting everyone pray, we moved on. I am sure they wouldn't have wanted us crying all night for them.
Night had already arrived in the dungeon, and well, half of floor one had suddenly become a desertic wasteland.
Thanks to Felicia's help, we were able to quickly remove all demonic energy in the
environment and also she conjured a powerful seal that made it so the flow of Mana wasn't as powerful and intense anymore.
"It won't stop the miasma from appearing, it will eventually come anyways, there's just too much Mana and no way to stop it other than sealing the dungeon off completely, but that would slowly kill it, so that's not the idea," she explained. "However, with my seals in place, it'll be much harder for the miasma to appear, and there might be a way to easily "feel" it before it pops up, so you can prepare better."
"I see... thank you master, that's really nice of you," I sighed in relief. "But I wonder... would that evil god be able to get here again?"
"Hmm, I can't really say much about that," she said. "I have no idea how he got here to begin with, but perhaps his own divine authority allowed him seep in as the miasma itself weakened the spatial walls of your dungeon... But we can solve that too! Alright, I guess if its for my cute disciple I can do a bit more than usual!"
"R-Really?!" I asked.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Yes, first, let's begin with the basics," she said. "Protection to your people and the rest of the dungeon. Now that the mana fluctuations have been somewhat stabilized, we need to grant your people further protection. So let's move to the walls of Eden. As the city expands the Walls constantly move, right?"
"Ah, yeah, I made the walls using my magic and alchemy," I said. "But I guess to you it's a bit sloppy, right master?"
"It indeed is," she nodded, humming. "Hmm~! But it's not too bad. Now that the Saintess of the Arboren, Selene, has created a contract with two of your spirits, she can be your anchor to the inside of the dungeon, so your connection is better, right? Also this contract helped her become that giant tree, huh? Was it some sort of evolution?"
"No, that tree did come from her body, but once she detached herself, it became a separate entity, it is a new vessel for Yggdra! You see, Yggdra..."
I explained master about Yggdra and how she worked, while Felicia nodded.
"I see! Well done, Yggdra is an incredible living being, both a mystical spirit tree and also a spirit by her own, this means she can expand her spiritual soul and have many bodies! Her true body might be that tree, but she can transfer across many trees and they're all her body, right?" asked Master. "Then this tree was born, harboring her spiritual soul too. Fascinating! With this, you can immediately learn when something wrong goes in the dungeon easily." "Yeah..."
Especially because the Dungeon System is quite terrible at telling me when things happen, and apparently the Civilization System is just as bad.
Both seem unable to easily send me messages, and because their connection to the main System, Alice, becomes lagged as they're within a different dimension, their warning can't be done so easily.
However, now that Yggdra is here, that changes forever! I can ask Yggdra to tell me whatever happens in here and she'll do so immediately. We've already tested it with her as I let her move outside the dungeon.
The connection between the two dimensions was made perfectly fine, and this will help me expand the new security system the dungeon will have.
"The main goal is to put one of her trees in every floor so I can keep a good watch on all of them. She's also special and won't become tired like Selene due to her unique nature as a spirit and also a spiritual tree and a forest."
She constantly gains energy through our connection, my endless mana keeps her well-fed and she basically never becomes tired, also her different bodies in Cloudia can sleep all they want, further helping her recover her mental strength.
"I see! One for each floor would certainly be good," master said. "Now let me upgrade the walls here and there..."
She flew around, using her Divine Alchemy Arts to modify the entire walls, manipulating "particles" and the very "elements" that made the matter of the dungeon, and using my excess mana to reinforce the materials and quite literally reconstruct them from a molecular level to be upgraded to insane degrees.
FLAAASH!
Once twenty minutes passed, she was done. The walls had become gigantic, regal, and somewhat alive, connected to Yggdra's roots and nicely covered by fifty layers of hardened stones of variable types and qualities, capable of resisting many elements.
"The walls will automatically trigger a protection barrier which will use Yggdra, Naturia, and Selene's magic while being fed by the Mana Rivers within the underground," she said. "This means that the barrier's durability will be constantly regenerated thanks to your endless mana being directly connected to it. Unless something like Allocer spawns within a split- second right in front of the walls, they won't be able to break through as easily. And something like Allocer takes a lot of time to summon, so you'll have enough time to enter and bring everyone to fight."
"That's relieving... thank you master, I don't know how I can even repay you for this..." I sighed in relief.
"Well, you can repay me by presenting to me those peculiar little guys!" she said, pointing at the machine people that had come to help everyone in flying ships a few hours ago. "They're fascinating! I had never seen such creatures before. They're like the gods' golems but actually sentient living beings?! And also their cores run through special types of energies! Please help me become their friends!"
"Hah... Okay, haha..." I giggled a bit.
I guess she still had her usual quirks.
