Chapter 168 Workaround

Workaround

"Surprisingly, human." Christopher's excitement was momentarily held back as he observed the being below him.

They were naked and had skin so pale it might as well have been unhealthy. Their face was somewhat unremarkable. That didn't mean it wasn't attractive, as the stoner one became, the more attractive they would be. But this face wasn't all that.

Christopher observed the man closely. For a moment, he thought he was of the same race as Azure, but he quickly dismissed that theory.

"Yeah, no, this guy is human." He confirmed after checking a few things and stood up.

His punch from earlier broke his nose, but the real damage was worse than that. His blow turned his brain into mush.

As for how Christopher turned the guy corporeal, it was pretty simple... in theory.

If what he needed to do to prevent himself from getting erased was to strengthen his fate, then he simply created a fate for the entity to ground it into reality.

It sounded simple on paper, but it was far more complicated than that.

One needs to remember that a single strand of fate was interconnected with an unbelievably vast and expansive web, interacting with all sorts of people and scenarios.

Christopher somehow managed to create and bind the entity to a thread that had a life's worth of fate within it, all to allow himself to kill the person who was the entity.

When he could have just used Annihilation Insight to see its weakness and kill it.

Still, Christopher was confused.

Why was it a human? How had the person even become such an entity in the first place? And why?

'Hm...' A faint hum from Norn drew his attention.

'Any ideas?' He asked as the blizzard filled in the space from before.

'We've ascertained that there were attempts to cross the blizzard in the past, yes? What if this person was a previous participant who died and somehow got assimilated into the blizzard as an entity that doesn't exist but also only exists within the blizzard? If that makes sense.' She presented her theory, and Christopher tilted his head.

'It sounds solid, but there's too little information to be sure.' He tried to rub his chin, but his mask was in the way. He really needed to stop doing that.

"Well, let's keep at it." Christopher smiled. His excitement hadn't subsided, so he was still as active as before.

Moreover, there were a lot more entities that were starting to converge on his position.

The fact remained that he wasn't able to sense them without them entering his sight directly. Explore stories on My Virtual Library Empire@@@@

Also, he said said it himself. If things got too bad, his Void clone would handle it.

Titus didn't know though though. As such he implemented his idea.

The idea was simple. The fortress already had a powerful defensive function, though it wasn't enough to handle the strength of the blizzard, and Titus knew this.

So he came up with a simple fix. Well, not simple, but a reliable fix.

The theory was simple.

Basically, as Eidrasil explained, she's pretty much the embodiment of life within the Primordial Expanse, you need to be alive to exist, so her presence greatly helped with resisting the terror of the blizzard.

However, that still wouldn't be enough. So Titus decided to have himself and his soldiers do something interesting.

Essentially, they were going to link the barrier with the tree and enhance the effects of both.

To add to this, they would create a direct channel to the Primordial Expanse and have it feed its energy into this new barrier, essentially supercharging it. Titus didn't need to worry about the barrier getting overloaded since again, it was capable of far more, it was made to handle such an influx of energy.

However, while the theory was simple, doing all of this was quite the hassle.

Thankfully, they had Tristan, and Dragons were naturally receptive to energy and its uses, so the process went by a lot faster than it normally would have. Moreover, Titus had Veylthar guiding him, so they made no mistakes when creating the formation.

"Okay, here goes." Titus exhaled and closed his eyes and allowed himself to become in tune with the fortress.

Hrs briefly became aware of the numerous locked options but ignored them as soon as he saw them.

Then he shifted his focus to the new feature that had been created and sighed.

In his mind's eyes, there was a large pillar with many layers. Each layer represented a different feature, and at a certain level, they were grayed out and he couldn't access them.

Each layer was an incredibly complex and vibrant magic circle that had been created with beautiful precision.

In comparison, the feature he and his soldiers came together to create looked like a cheap copy and was nowhere near as expertly made as the ones his master had created.

But Titus wasn't discouraged, he had long accepted the fact that Christopher was a being he couldn't fully comprehend, and trying to compare his actions with his was an easy way of getting discouraged.

As such, he turned his attention from the various functions and focused on the newly added features, and without hesitating, he activated it.

The moment he did, the fortress shook, and then all of a sudden, the stable life energy coming off from the tree suddenly erupted outwards and filled the entire fortress.

The air became a thick, vibrant green, and for a moment, everyone was stunned by the sheer vitality that filled the fortress.

It didn't end there though as a massive dome appeared around the fortress. And slowly, the dome started to mix with the life energy.
