Adrian then led the group to the edge of the floating island where only high members of the Church of the Twin Gods could enter. To exact, only elders of the Church of the Twin Gods or Elders of the Daemos could enter as one needs to pass a barrier.
They entered the Sanctuary of the Tree of Life and Death. The tree could even be seen swaying at the group, and they also noticed the small puddle near it. Two children could also be seen lying down comfortably next to each other near the tree but if one could see their energies then they will be afraid.
"We should be quiet as Vitae and Mortem are currently resting." Adrian stated as he led them a bit further in an area at the edge of the barrier.
The area there is only small as only a five meter by five-meter building could fit in that space. It might not be enough if it was a normal guild house but if it was a pocket dimension then it is more than enough. This is where Adrian planned to put the entrance as he already has a sign there saying it is his property with a small demon anime character drawn.
In fact, even if he did not do that, no one would ever dare to argue as he is the owner of the entire floating island. He has the power to make anyone get exiled if he so pleases but he does not want to become a tyrant.
"All we need to do is wait for the materials from Solstice and Lycan before we can proceed." Adrian stated.
"Have you thought of a name yet though?" Creepysoo asked.
"I thought of three actually and is hoping that we could vote for it. We should vote when all of us are here. I will need to start in making the magic circle as the materials are already here. You guys can do anything you want for a day since that is the time that both Solstice and Lycan will arrive." Adrian stated as he dismissed everyone since he is finished explaining.
The others dispersed while Creepysoo remained near the Tree of Life and Death as he wanted to observe what Adrian is about to do. Creating a pocket dimension is not an easy feat as it takes careful planning and execution. If he fails, then something wrong might appear inside the pocket dimension.
The potential things that might happen if he fails is that numerous entrances will appear in a one-kilometer area which will force him to close each one. If that happens then the resources will be used up and he would have wasted them. The pocket dimension might also be unstable which might kill anyone caught inside if it retracts suddenly. He does not want any of his friends to be angry at him because he unknowingly killed them.
An artificial pocket dimension is not the same as a natural pocket dimension. The magic that is needed to sustain this is also needed which is why it is costly. Magic stones from defeated monsters are needed in order to power the pocket dimension or else it will become unstable. He is waiting for this magic stone that Solstice and Lycan will give which is why he has yet to start the actual creation.
The magic stone that Adrian wanted is from a Boss Monster in the level 300s called the Mana Eater. He made Solstice and Lycan hunt the monster as they barely use their mana to fight. Only they could hunt that monster among all of them as Mana Eaters become more dangerous with more mana that they eat.
The magic stone from a level 300 Mana Eater could store up to a mana number of 100,000. This can power up the artificial pocket dimension for two months. In fact, Solstice and Lycan died a few times just to get this magic stone since getting to the Mana Eater is much more difficult than killing it.
The trick to defeating a Mana Eater is to not have job classes that rely on mana to kill it, but it is also surrounded by other mobs in the process. Since only Solstice and Lycan fought against it, they took quite a bit of tries just to get the magic stone that is a guaranteed drop in the first kill.
Adrian also made sure that they must fill up the magic stone with every visit. This is to ensure that the magic stone does not run out of mana. Adrian then proceeded to draw the magic circle on the ground according to the scroll provided to him.
He did not dare to modify it as one needed to be at least a Master Scribe to do so. He is confident in doing it because an Intermediate Scribe could safely create the pocket dimension. Adrian is not creating a pocket dimension out of nothing as he will expand the space within the designated area.
He started to draw the intricate outer magic circle first as this would be the foundation of the pocket dimension. This would represent the stability of the pocket dimension and will dictate if it would fall or get destroyed. Adrian made use of every bit of concentration that he had to the point that he could no longer hear what is happening in the outside world.
He only snapped out of his trance when he finished the entire magic circle and compared it to the one in the illustration. He breathes a sigh of relief and saw his friends waiting patiently next to him as he finished his job. Even they were afraid of distracting him as he is in full concentration mode.
"You guys should have told me that you are here." Adrian muttered but everyone just shot judging eyes towards him.
"We called out to each time we arrived in the area, but you did not hear us. It would take an attack to break that level of concentration from you." Solstice stated.
