Chapter 181: A storm is brewing II

When the sun's light faded away and the darkness surrounded the mountains, Michael and Gaya left their home through the backdoor. They informed Jack that they are going to secluded cultivation and not to be disturbed.

After reaching the Core Formation stage, Michael's flying speed increased significantly, it only took them five hours to reach the Dark forest.

"No matter how many times I enter this place, it still gives me the creeps," Gaya said, staring at the dark walls of the Abyssal.

The winter climate blanketed everything in white snow except the dark forest as not a single drop of snow could be seen in the forest. As usual, the dark storm clouds hovered over the forest with continuous flashing purple streaks of lightning. It was a domain that stood independently radiating an evil vibe, a vibe that could be even compared to the Treacherous ocean.

"This is home, Dark Queen," Michael who was now adorning Lucifer's armor, said.

He truly did feel at home much as he did when he was at the sect. To be honest, he liked Abyssal more because here, he was himself. Deep down he knew Ghost was just a facade and Lucifer is the real him.

Michael did not waste any time interacting with Dular but went straight to his room on the far end of the underground.

"Dicky would love this place" Gaya jumped onto the bed that Michael bought from the system and placed it in his room which was used by her more than him.

His room had not many things and seemed empty. Only a few things occupied the space such as a large table and a comfy chair, two six feet tall book racks, and a spacious fancy black bed.

"We can't bring him here, anyone with half a brain could connect Nightmare to Ghost and guess Ghost is Lucifer," Michael said, sitting before the large table to build things.

Leisurely supporting her head using her hand, Gaya stared curiously at him to see what he was up to. Michael willed the system to take out the things Jack bought for him.

Soon afterward, on the table appeared a stack of mirrors. Each individual mirror was the size of a 24 inch monitor.

"What do you wanna do with all these mirrors, see yourself from various angles?" Gaya chuckled.

"We are going to see the entire Bredia" behind the black mask, Gaya was stunned to hear his words. She quickly stood up and came closer to see him applying a greyish glue-like substance on one side of the mirrors.

"Let me help too," she said, taking another brush from the table to apply the greyish substance on the mirrors just like he does.

"What do you mean by seeing the entire Bredia?" while applying the glue, Gaya asked Michael.

"It's easier to show than explain" Michael continued to apply the glue. After a few minutes, Michael used the Arch energy to lift the mirrors before placing them one after another on the wall before him.

In just a few seconds, the entire wall was filled with mirrors and reflected nothing but the images of Gaya and Michael.

"Now what?"

"Now im going to build an army of spies" Gaya's face was full of wonder and confusion but before she could ask a question, she saw him take out a big chunk of metal ore, cogs, and gears, and quite a few other items.

"Junk metal" In a single glance at the metal ore, she identified it as the Junk metal. She took the metal ore in her hands, staring at Michael wordlessly asking him why did he buy this ore of useless metal.

"Why do you call this a Junk metal, because it has no Arch Energy radiation?" Michael asked without showing any emotions but inside, he was laughing at the people of this world thinking about their ignorance.

"Duh"

The Junk metal as its name suggests had no use whatsoever because unlike everything in this world that radiates at least a bit of Arch Energy, the Junk metal did not have the ability to contain Arch energy. Since it contained no Arch energy, the bond between the molecules was extremely weak for a metal, in other words, it did not possess the strength of an average metal and it was barely considered as a metal in this world.

"Tell me how the defense spells and arrays work?"

"Why? you already know that"

"Just enlighten me"

One could see her roll her eyes if it wasn't for the mask yet she sighed and explained to him.

"It's simple actually, the defense security spells and arrays work by detecting the concentration of Arch energy. For instance, a rare security array would usually detect anyone at or above the Body Strengthening stage except the people who have the mark that prevent array or spells from activating. As for the lifeless things, the array or spell would remember everything around its effective area when it was initially cast and if something new entered its space, it would identify the thing as an unknown object and activate the countermeasures as well as inform the one who cast the spell and guards"

Her words reminded Michael of his previous life. As an assassin, he often had to deal with security technologies like motion sensors, security cameras, heat sensors, and many more. In a sense, these security arrays and defense spells were the same but extremely deadlier and effective than the security on earth.

In this world, a cultivator radiated Arch energy, and no matter how powerful a cultivator becomes, one could never stop the Arch energy radiating from the body, in fact, the more powerful one becomes, the more the Arch energy he/she would radiate.

As Gaya explained, the arrays and spells work by detecting the Arch energy radiated from the body or a thing. This was why the assassins or thieves in this world had a hard time infiltrating and killing high-profile targets like the king or ministers and often tried to kill the targets outside their stronghold.

Since the spell or the array would activate in a very short amount of time, even killing the target from a distance using a powerful bow was not an option for assassins in this world.

"Now tell me, if I throw this Junk metal into a security array, do you think it would activate the array? "

"Of course not and do YOU think someone hasn't tried making an arrow out of the Junk metal and killing someone from a distance?" Gaya asked, emphasizing the word you.

Michael just calmly shook his head, of course, he knew someone might have tried to use this Junk metal's trait to break the security spells or array.

However, they did not have a system and an Inventor trait to breach the security.

"Just watch" Anticipation made Gaya jump on the table and sit there staring at what he's doing.

Before starting to build his army of spies, he took a one feet long tubular metal and a few other parts that had runes on them. Most of these parts were used to assemble magical objects such as carriages, weapons, and tools used by people of various professions, therefore, he could directly buy the parts rather than custom building them.

After looking at him assembling the parts and gluing them together, she saw him taking the Junk metal ore and placing them before him. Under Gaya's gaze, Michael gently caressed the long metal tube in his hand, it resembled the shape of a ballpoint pen, only it was one foot long and had a diameter of three inches.

"Let's see, Ignitia" holding the pointy end of the metal tube at the Junk metal, Michael cast Ignitia as a bolt of lightning went straight into the metal tube.

"Wow" Gaya's eyes immediately widened in shock and surprise seeing a bright blue color light appear out of the metal tube's point end forming a hole in the metal ore.

"What is this?" Gaya asked curiously. This was the first time she saw a light cutting metal with this precision and ease. Normally, she knew the blacksmiths would heat the metal using various means before cutting them, and even though it was a weak Junk metal, Gaya could tell the heat coming from the blue light could easily cut many strong metals such as iron, silver, and gold.

"It's called Laser, with this I can build my army of little spies"

"How?" her eyes sparkled, wanting to play with the laser like a child.

"You'll see" After successfully building a laser to cut the metal in desirable shape for his first big move in taking over Bredia, he had everything he needed to build little spy cameras.

Michael's full focus was on the task at hand as he began to cut the metal ore and assemble various parts in front of Gaya's eyes. He felt like Batman who was creating Batarang in his Batcave.

"Spider?" After Michael assembled his first spy camera, Gaya took it gently and examined it with eyes full of curiosity and wonder. The spycam on Gaya's hand was the size of a shirt button, it had eight tiny legs and instead of eight eyes, it had only one eye on the center of its head.

"How does it work?"

"System, connect the spyder cam to one of the mirrors" Before answering Gaya, Michael entered the system to connect his spy cam to one of the mirrors. He did build the spycam to use Arch energy and link with any orbs without the help of the system but with the help of the system, he knew that he could create a state-of-the-art surveillance unit in Abyssal.

"It will cost the host 20 badass points"

"Do it"

Michael experienced a tingling sensation in his mind after he ordered the system. Soon afterward, he exited the system to feel that he could control the spyder cam using his thoughts instead of a remote.

"Whoa!" Behind the mask, Gaya's jaw slightly dropped when one of the mirrors suddenly began to show her face. She stared at the mirror and the spyder on her palm repeatedly until Michael gently grabbed the spyder cam from her.

"With this, we can soon spy on the entire Bredia"
