Vaz didn’t deny that. After all, he totally intended to enter the chamber that would shoot them through the barrier. He also wanted to learn more outside and wanted it more than ever now that he met Rean. “That’s true.”
Vaz then looked at the other Formation Masters, including Rean, before yelling, “All of you, teaching time is over. We will use Rean’s Power Control Rune to finish the last parts of the formation before giving it a shot at escaping this damned place. As I mentioned 30 years ago to the starting team and the ones who joined us along the way, I won’t force anyone to enter the formation. Some of you aren’t that old, maybe not as young as Rean, but not like me and the others, so you have a lot more time left. Perhaps it’s simply not worth it. Once the time comes, you can simply not take part in it.”
Vaz then began to walk in the formation’s direction after that. “Alright, the time has come. Let’s start!”
”Yes, Elder Vaz!” Everyone, including Rean, followed Vaz to the formation and immediately started to work on it.
At the same time, Clinbay looked back at Levid and the others, saying, “All of you, go back to the tower and buy us time. However, if things get too complicated, simply take the teleport formation and come back here. We will simply destroy the teleport formations on this side. That will give us time as well.”
Levid’s group nodded after that. “Alright.” Soon after, they passed through the teleport formation while Clinbay stayed to watch over the work. Clinbay didn’t want to leave anything up to chance until the formation was completed.
Meanwhile, Rean finished passing the current situation to Roan. ‘You saw that, right?’
Roan, who was at one of the windows of the tower, nodded, saying, ‘Yes. That guy called Clinbay wasn’t lying. In the past few hours, I’ve noticed the number of Divine Senses hitting the Divine Sense bending skill increase several times. It’s not hard to see a few shadows appearing around the tower, and these shadows have nothing to do with the people and demon beasts who lived in the city around it.’
Roan then asked Rean back after that. ‘You sure this formation won’t work once they use your power control runes, right?’
Rean confirmed Roan’s words while he worked, saying, ‘Yes. My power control runes absolutely can’t hold such a large-scale formation. They would be better off with the ones they were using until now, even if they are at a lower level. My runes simply weren’t made for this kind of job.’
Roan then asked something else after that. ‘You said the entire formation would explode if they activated it with your runes. Will you be fine on your side?’
Rean then explained, ‘Vaz already said that anyone who doesn’t want to enter the formation won’t be forced into it. The Soul Gem Dimensional Realm is still open as well. That means no danger that the system can detect has been found yet. So, I believe I should be fine as I’m going to pretend that I don’t want to enter it in the end.’
Roan couldn’t help but ask, ‘What if that guy called Clinbay decides to get rid of anyone who decides to not enter the formation? You never know what these guys are capable of in order to keep their secrets.’
’I’ll keep watching the Soul Gem Dimensional System’s entrance to see if things change. Until then, I’ll have to keep my part of the plan. If I suddenly asked to leave right now, it would be way too suspicious,’ replied Rean.
Roan had to admit Rean was right. ‘That’s true. Alright, then you guys better finish your work as fast as possible. Things are getting quite heated outside. If I’m not wrong, it won’t take more than a day or two for the being watching this tower to come out and check it by force. Even if the purging organization is the biggest in the Upside Down World, it absolutely has no chance against all the powers together. Besides, this organization is maintained by these same powers, so they definitely want a slice of the pie.’
Rean already planned that anyway. ‘Don’t worry. The formation is more or less finished. A day should be more than enough after the addition of my runes.’
Roan then left the window and went back to his room, where there was an anti-Divine Sense formation. Soon after, he brought Celis out of the Dimensional Realm. After all, Celis was the only one in condition to fight if necessary. After all, Kentucky would take at least another month to recover from the statue transformation. “With Rean and my powers like this, we won’t be of much help, so we are counting on you.”
Celis nodded, already expecting it as he said in response, “Don’t worry. That’s why you brought me out the first time. I might not be able to fight those at the Middle or Late Stage Void Tempering Realm like you and Rean, but I can definitely hold my own against someone at the Initial Stage. That should be enough for us to at least escape if it gets chaotic in this tower.”
Roan was satisfied with that. “Let’s wait for Rean, then.”
