I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1312 Testing The Pagoda's Layers - Part 1

The key to all this was the structure of the pagoda itself. The entire pagoda was formed of the energy drained from the bones.

That meant no matter what grade of bone used, the five layered pagoda would still be formed.

The energy formed some sort of a maze structure for every layer, and each maze had the same repeated symbol to it. I saw the first layer to have the symbol of five stars overlapping over each other.

I never thought that the structure layout of this entire structure would be the key to activate the first layer!

As for the symbols of other layers, they were star related as well. One described two seven headed stars, looking identical, with one having a circle in the centre and the other having a diamond shaped inside.

The third symbol was a circle with a five headed star inside.

The fourth was a star that had a string of five smaller stars coming down it like it was a thread or something.

The last one was a group of small stars, looking like they were forming a small galaxy by themselves.

Their number was one hundred, just the same as the number of the holes in this structure.

I had two guesses related to how to allow anyone to activate these layers. The first one was to draw these symbols on the ground when making the entire structure at first.

However for some reason I felt this wasn't going to work. If this was going to work, then the entire structure wouldn't work without these symbols.

The second method was by using tattoos drawn over the body of these people to allow them to control the arrays.

These tattoos should be either drawn using the energy of bones, that fluid flowing right now, which was literally impossible to do for anyone.

If they tried to move a single step, the entire structure would crumble.

So the other option they had was to use their own blood to draw these symbols before stepping in and activating the entire structure.

As for me, I didn't need any of this at all!

When I first felt the connection with that structure, I got to feel the energy inside the pagoda spread out to cover a huge stretch of land. I didn't get how far it'd get as I hurriedly interrupted this by injecting my energy inside.

And when I was examining the structure of that five layered pagoda, I simply crushed the doors and was able to activate each layer at a whim.

"Time to see what this pagoda can do…" once finished exploring everything of these layers, it was time to see what each layer could do.

I instantly ran my energy and activated the second layer. And the moment I did, I felt a different flow of the energy coming out from the arrays.

If the first gush of energy was like a flood, then this one was like waves at the shore.

I looked around and saw waves of energy coming out from the structure, fiercely slamming against everything around.

I felt instant shock and hurriedly stopped the activation of this layer. "Are you alright?" I shouted as I couldn't see anyone from the released waves from before.

"We are alright!" The sound of Sara came but slightly weaker than before.

"What happened?" I asked while seeing the two coming from two different directions. Before this, the two stood next to each other. But it seemed they got slammed by these waves and were thrown away.

"We got hit by these waves," Legend said in a weak voice as well, "but aside from slightly feeling uncomfortable and a little weak, but we are fine," he looked at Sara who simply nodded in agreement.

"So you only felt weak?" I asked, "nothing else?"

"No harm, physical at least," Legend responded.

If that was true, then the second layer would affect the forces around with a sweeping wave that'd leave everyone weakened.

But I didn't know if that effect would be the same for my forces like my enemies. It'd suck if it was the same for both forces.

"Step back then," I didn't want to risk activating anymore layers with them present here, "get far behind, stay away from here."

I waited for half an hour before trying to activate the other layers.

During this time, I checked and found out that the rate of energy expenditure increased when I activated the second layer.

If the expenditure was one percent before, it grew up to three. It wasn't that much of an increase, but it was enough to cut the bones by three times already.

If the bones would last for two months and more, then right now it'd last for only less than one month, almost three weeks.

It was a big decrease to be honest, especially when I'd think about using this structure with silver bones.

I didn't jump to conclusions fast. I had to first let others try activating the layers with different grades of bones and let Isac or Lily draw out the data of this test.

After realising how complicated and important this was, I decided to appoint such a task to someone I'd never doubted.

So it was either Isac or Lily, and mostly it'd be Lily.

Isac was still busy dealing with the defensive problem we currently had.

So out of the two, I'd select Lily. If she was that busy, then Legend would be the third option for me.

"Time to activate the third layer," I had much hope to find an offensive attack out of the remaining three layers.

But the next layer didn't produce an offensive attack.

What happened was for the flow of energy to change direction and rhythm again. Instead of flowing out like before, it started to get separated into endless smaller number spots, each acted like a bubble and gave me the feeling of sealing ability.

"So the third layer is a sealing ability… That's interesting…"
