Chapter 1745 - Manpower (1) (1/2)
Amphorae looked at Dyon silently for a moment. She felt that something had changed about her husband, and her instincts definitely weren't wrong.
”Did something happen?” Amphorae probed.
”It's no longer safe to go to the Conference. You took a relay station with you just in case, correct? Use it as soon as you can and return to Soul Palace.”
Amphorae frowned.
The relay station Dyon was referring to was the very same array set created by the 24th White Mother for the Sapientia. Dyon knew this thanks to the special abilities of the hamster twins.
According to Little Yin and Yang, there were a set of 1030 planet grade arrays, 30 of which were 'Master Key Arrays'. These 30 master arrays were placed as a fail safe because the 24th White Mother didn't trust the Sapientia Clan. Thus, these 30 arrays were left hidden within Soul Rending Peak until they were brought out for use by The Cathedral.
Currently, Dyon had control of 10 of these master key arrays. The remaining 20 were still in the hands of the 99 universes. However, this wasn't a big deal because Dyon cut off their ability to teleport to the 10 in his hands. When the time came, he would come to control all 30. When that day came, the Sapientia would be in for rude awakening… The humiliation they handed Dyon this day would be handed back several hundredfold.
Still, this wasn't important now. What was important was that the master key arrays could create 10 relay stations each. These relay stations could allow one to teleport back to the master key array that created it at any moment. And, it also allowed anyone at the master key array to teleport to it.
Amphorae had brought one with her. Originally, Dyon had given it to her after hearing she wanted to go Dragon Hunting. He didn't want her to be without means of escape, just in case. But, it seemed it would come very useful now.
”… What happened?” Amphorae said after a long time.
After listening to Dyon's explanation, Amphorae understood. Since these people wanted to cut all cordiality with him, there wouldn't be much of a reason for them to let Amphorae go free.
”What about the relay station, though?” Amphorae said, slightly apprehensive.
”This is a good opportunity.” Dyon said after thinking a while. ”Find an abandoned, preferably uninhabitable planet with a predictable orbit to hide it. Use a few concealment arrays to block the energy fluctuations and stop the Star Clan from being able to sense the influx of spatial qi. When the time comes, this relay station will make warring with the Star Clan far easier.”
Amphorae nodded. She didn't know when her and Dyon's relationship flipped back to him taking the lead, but she couldn't say she hated it. At least this way, their 5-year long trip wasn't entirely wasted.
