Chapter 1180: Thomas And Fang
William didn't take part in making arrays, instead he kept examining and observing the pyramids around. He didn't drop the idea of getting to know what these pyramids were. And yet after days of examining, all he got was little info about them.
"They can store spirit power, and yet they have limited ability to do so. The amount they can store isn't that much, and that may explain the huge number of them here…"
This was the first discovery he noticed, and then after two days of observation and walking around, he noticed something else.
"The ground… It's pulsating with power between a group of pyramids augmented by my arrays…" he noticed that with every group of pyramids, some sort of a link was established there.
As his weapons kept building more arrays, more pyramids kept shining brighter, and also the ground. But it felt like pulses of power got emitted in between these pyramids, like some sort of a signal or something.
"Are they giving power to each other? Sharing it perhaps?" He kept thinking about what it meant. At the same time he dug the ground at different places, and yet found nothing special at all.
He thought there would be some sort of lines connecting these pyramids underground, like a grand net. But with the absence of this, he could tell the power came from pyramids and moved to other pyramids.
"If they are sending these as pulses or signals, what are they trying to do here then?" he muttered to himself after two days of deep study and digging. He got that these pyramids kept sending signals between each other in a group of one hundred. These signals came at any given time, without order nor logic behind.
This was another mystery added to the pyramids. And that made him more curious to learn more about the true use and nature of these pyramids.
As he kept studying and testing, time passed fast. After two weeks of his absence, his friends all gathered with Lara, and they learnt about what happened so far.
They didn't feel it was weird. After all, it was a custom for him to vanish and do things solo. And yet this never happened before unless there was something grand that was going to happen.
They wanted to go into the underground city and see what he was doing. But just before they'd move there, the team Lara sent returned, and they brought the bad news back.
"He isn't found anywhere there?! Where did he go then?!!" Lara was very experienced about the city more than anyone else.
"Let's go and look for him then, I can't believe he can escape my spirit sense," Fang cleared his throat, putting a veil of cooperation and good intention in front of the rest of the team.
He kept tagging along and had high hopes to get into the rumoured underground city. So when he heard everything, he couldn't help but act as a wolf impersonating a sheep.
"I'm sure he is doing something big," Lang shook his head, "and I believe a hellish battle awaits us down there."
"Battle? Why are you saying this?" Lara asked in doubt, and the old members of the team just smiled and said nothing. They all experienced a lot with William before, and it was normal for the to
"You'll get it when we go in there," Sara said, while taking out two swords, "let's go, I'm sure he is going to face a tough situation in there and will regret not asking us to help."
"But we have no clue where he is," Anjie looked at Lara, and the latter shrugged.
"This is not a problem while I'm here," Thomas suddenly stepped up, "leave this task over for me to handle."
"Oh… We'll follow your lead then," Sara and others nodded, while Anjie and Lara looked in doubt towards Thomas.
"He is special," Berry said, as if Thomas' unique ability was something to brag about in front of the newly joined members of the team.
"We don't need you, I can easily find him within seconds," Fang snorted, "just stand aside, so you don't block my way, kiddo."
"Ok," unlike what others expected, Thomas shrugged, "but if you fail, don't stand in my way, grandpa."
"Hmph," Fang didn't put Thomas in his eyes at all. In fact, anyone not knowing how scary this youth's talent was would underestimate him.
He got the karma spirit element, and under William's special care, he grew to become someone truly scary. He couldn't just track things using karma, but also could now fight back and kill his enemies under certain conditions.
"Let's go then," Lang rubbed his hands, "I'm excited to see what boss is doing down there."
"Follow me," Lara was also feeling the same curiosity, like everyone else. So she led them into the underground city, and there they found nothing special.
"It's impressive," this was Fang's first time here, "I can see tons of shielded arrays in the damaged buildings, what for?"
"You don't see the monsters?" Thomas evilly grinned, "and you want to find a boss with such ability?"
"Hmph, you stay here then, I'll go down there and find him for you," Fang didn't like the tone nor the attitude of Thomas. And so he hurriedly left, literally jumped off the cliff, without waiting to hear what Lara and others had to say.
And then it was expected how hard he experienced down below in the next few minutes.
"Damn! Those monsters… They are endless! And how can we kill them?" After an hour, he couldn't take the pressure anymore and had to retreat.
"Hahaha, you went down there and kept attacking right and left with all your might? You really have a suicidal wish, hahahah," Lara couldn't control herself and kept laughing, while Fang felt like he didn't get any of that.
He tried to attack with everything he got, but against what he thought, the monsters didn't die.
