Keli raised a question, "But the birth of Storm Eye involves not just pollution, but also crucial spatial reactions."
Before Saul could answer her doubt, Keli suddenly realized it herself.
"Oh~ the Chaos Realm Compass?"
Saul nodded with satisfaction. Both could understand his intentions well—their tacit understanding was quite high.
"When the ti cos, Senior Byron will be responsible for performing the reverse inertization formula, while Keli, you'll activate the Chaos Realm Compass. But be careful not to go through completely—open it and close it quickly, so people can't find the Storm Eye's exact location. That would be more realistic."
When Storm Eyes appeared in the Borderland two years ago, the Tribunal, Stargate Council, and Sky City all received advance notice.
They must have discovered so clues.
After Saul personally sealed a Storm Eye, he also knew which precursors and signs indicated a Storm Eye had appeared.
Naturally, he was confident in creating a fake Storm Eye.
Once a Storm Eye appeared, he would have to imdiately return to the Borderland.
Even if the Tribunal wasn't ready to let him return, people from the Stargate Council would personally co to retrieve him.
The Tribunal's carriage needed three days to cross Dwarf Valley, so these three days were equivalent to Saul returning to the wizard tower for a vacation.
Of course, he wasn't really relaxing on vacation, but continued discussing with Keli and Byron how to make the fake Storm Eye more realistic.
And how to let people from the Stargate Council and Tribunal discover the fake Storm Eye's existence in ti.
The three days passed in a flash. Before noon on the third day, Saul's figure flashed and he returned to the Tribunal's flying horse carriage.
Still the sa dark, crude little carriage.
"Master?" Herman asked tentatively.
"Snap!" Saul snapped his fingers, illuminating the entire carriage.
"Experint successful. The temporary coordinate is usable." He was very satisfied.
This ti returning, he hadn't used Herman's fate line to locate his teleportation, but rather used the temporary coordinate he had created.
The temporary coordinate wasn't a fate line, but rather a relatively large point. When Saul touched this point, he could also complete teleportation.
However, this temporary coordinate couldn't be maintained for very long. Saul's first-made temporary coordinate could last at most ten days. It could only be used for ergencies, not for long-term positioning.
But after more research, he might be able to extend the temporary coordinate's maintenance period to several months.
Then it could be used in many more scenarios.
The Tribunal's carriage was still traveling steadily on the ground.
Saul satisfactorily retrieved his soul fragnt, then pushed the carriage door open a crack to signal to the coachman that he had returned.
Outside the carriage, the coachman's back, entirely covered in a cloak, suddenly stiffened, then slowly relaxed.
"Lord Saul, welco back."
The coachman's voice was always low and hoarse, but today it was particularly exhausted, as if all his strength had been drained.
Saul now knew that others couldn't teleport within Dwarf Valley, but he couldn't very well discuss this with the coachman. So he continued pretending not to know, notified the coachman of his return, then closed the carriage door again and sat inside ditating, recovering his spiritual body that had fluctuated slightly due to teleportation.
He didn't know that the Tribunal's coachman had truly been nervous for three days.
Because his body had been too tense, when Saul returned and he relaxed for an instant, he nearly collapsed from exhaustion.
Saul didn't know that this crude carriage he was in actually had hidden depths.
Even after Frim's consciousness left the lantern, he couldn't escape the carriage.
In fact, once Saul tried to escape the carriage or prepared to violently destroy it, the carriage would imdiately activate defensive functions, ntally depriving Saul of his ability to act.
Simply put, it would make him dizzy or fall asleep.
Even if Saul wouldn't truly pass out due to his abnormal ntal strength, he would still be unable to continue escaping due to severe oscillations of his spiritual body.
Because the entire carriage was personally made by Frim for escorting disobedient high-rank wizards.
Also because this carriage only transported powerful wizards, outsiders thought this was the Tribunal's highest standard for receiving guests.
Who could imagine it was actually a cage?
Those wizards who tried to escape but failed could vaguely guess this carriage's true purpose.
But for the sake of face and dignity, they wouldn't reveal this matter.
However, Frim, who created the carriage, probably never imagined that Saul didn't need to leave the carriage or violently destroy it—with just one teleportation, he could leave this hidden prison.
Therefore, after Saul left, although the coachman still drove toward the teleportation array leading to Nephret Continent according to the original plan, he was actually anxious inside, afraid Saul wouldn't return and he would fail to complete the Chief's assigned task and face his wrath.
Fortunately Saul returned, and his mission could be completed on ti.
Saul's timing was very precise. One hour after his return, the carriage slowly stopped.
Saul opened the door again and found they had arrived at another new magical formation.
Last ti when landing on Iskaper Continent's teleportation array, Saul hadn't had ti to observe carefully.
This ti, looking out through the carriage door, he discovered this formation was surrounded by a wall that firmly enclosed the massive array.
Every ten-plus ters along the wall stood a pillar with a fla hovering one ter above each pillar.
The wall was also inscribed with dense magical formations.
Saul casually scanned several and discovered isolation arrays, protection arrays, attack arrays, and others.
It seed the Tribunal had put considerable effort into protecting this ultra-long-distance teleportation array.
Saul believed that once soone tried to destroy the formation or trespass without permission, those flas hovering above the pillars would teach them to be reborn as better people in their next life.
Perhaps because the coachman was eager to hand Saul over, before Saul could observe more, he heard the coachman remind him, "It's about to begin. Please close the carriage door."
Having sowhat guessed the reason for the coachman's nervousness, Saul didn't cause trouble and very cooperatively closed the door, actively stopping all magical power and ntal energy fluctuations.
The next second, spatial disorientation ca again.
This ti the chaotic sensation was even stronger than before.
"Last ti there should have been Frim's consciousness nearby, so the carriage's internal space was more stable than now."
Despite the uncomfortable feeling from ultra-long-distance teleportation, Saul still had the mood to think.
Due to rapid spatial changes, Saul's perception of ti also beca confused.
Several tis he even suspected ti had been frozen, but the next instant everything returned to normal.
After an unknown length of ti, Saul finally heard the coachman outside say in his hoarse voice, "Lord Saul, we've arrived. You may co out."
Saul closed his eyes and recovered for a few seconds. When he felt he had stabilized again, only then did he push open the door and step out.
The scene outside the carriage sowhat surprised him.
The flying horse carriage had stopped in the center of the formation, but around the formation's periter, a circle of people had actually gathered.
In the direction Saul was facing, a golden carpet had even been laid out.
Just like a red carpet for welcoming guests.
The coachman got down from the carriage and cleared the space. "Lord Saul, these people are important ministers and noble mbers of the Evernight Empire who have co to welco you."
After a pause, he added, "The Emperor of Evernight is waiting for your arrival in the royal palace."
