The first thing Dyon did was give key wielding responsibilities to Donari.
Originally, he didn’t plan to do this. He actually wanted to give the key to his little brother, Zaire, so that he too could beco a God level figure. After all, he didn’t want his little brother to live in his shadow. Zaire had the talent to stand shoulder to shoulder with Dyon, he was absolutely certain of it.
However, Dyon was forced to change his plans. The abilities of the key wielder was sothing Dyon needed imdiately.
From his interrogation of Elder Nova, Dyon learned that the Epistemic Tower Gate of the Soul Rend Quadrant was actually a Dao Gate and the only reason that campaigns weren’t prevalent in this universe was because the Energy Path didn’t bother to attack.
On the outside looking in, it seed as though the other universes were too weak to think about campaigning, when the truth was that they were too powerful to even waste their ti. After all, Cathedral Universe was ant to be bait.
If this continued, it was obvious the kind of trouble this would bring. So, to save future troubles, Dyon imdiately had Donari shift all six connecting gates, one to each planet, into essence gates. This way, if they dared to attack, Dyon could single-handedly wipe out all of their forces alone.
Dyon’s thinking was simple. Without the gates, travelling between universes would take years, not to ntion a ridiculous amount of resources.
The mont those of the Energy Path realized they were sending their younger generation to their deaths, they would stop using the gates.
For obvious reasons, they wouldn’t be able to use the tower either. Not only did they not have access to the tower with the gate being a death zone.
There was also a second layer of protection Donari provided. Unlike Virvor, Donari had never taken a trial. This ant that the fog barrier would protect their 98th quadrant for as long as he didn’t.
It was very important to Dyon that the fog barrier remained, even more so than before. The realization the Elder Nova was a spy put his guard on high-alert. He couldn’t be complacent with his fail-safes.
This feeling beca even more fierce when Dyon learned from Elder Nova that there should have been a dao formation expert stationed in his ho universe as well.
After hearing this, Dyon couldn’t help but burst into a cold sweat. This was because he could still rember when he arrogantly proclaid his identity after stopping Madeleine’s wedding. If that dao formation expert had decided to act, Dyon’s life would have ended, just like that.
As for what happened to that expert? Dyon wasn’t entirely sure, but he had so ideas… Many of which revolved around Madeleine’s parents and the fact they too were dao formation experts… If he was correct, it seed that he’d have to thank them when next he saw them.
In all likelihood, that dao formation expert was long dead. Luckily, it was impossible to communicate easily between quadrants, so even Elder Nova had no idea that that expert had been compromised.
‘I’ve been too complacent…’ Dyon’s fists tightened as laid out the rest of his plans.
Although he had dealt with the gate, there was still one more way his enemies could easily co here: the master key teleportation arrays.
There were 30 arrays total, each of which had 10 subsidiary teleportation hubs according to the information the hamster twins gave Dyon, this ant that there were 330 arrays in total, more than enough to cover the wide expanse of this quadrant.
The good news was that the 23rd White Mother was very clever. The master key arrays only functioned when stationed in this universe. Because of this, all 30 master key arrays were in Dyon’s possession.
However, the subsidiary arrays could be deployed anywhere, which ant that those of the Energy Path could directly teleport here if they so chose.
That said… If it was that easy, would the master key arrays truly be master keys? What a joke it would be if they couldn’t control their own subsidiary arrays.
The reason why Elder Nova sneered when he told Dyon that they would be here the day after tomorrow was because he knew that the master key arrays were planet level arrays. He also received news that Dyon was a re cot level expert. In his mind, Dyon had no ability to control the arrays because of this.
Unfortunately, he clearly showed off his ignorance of the soul path.
When the kitsune tried to stop Dyon and Ri from teleporting out of Central City, didn’t Dyon manipulate a high-level array then?
The space the tower’s inner world covered was unimaginable, it could even be compared to the size of an entire quadrant, maybe even larger. Yet, those arrays could teleport you to any location within the inner world.
What did that an? It ant that Dyon had already manipulated a planet level array! So, what was the difference? Why could Dyon manipulate it then, but not when he needed to change the location symbols when he needed to at Soul Market?
The answer was obvious. When Dyon “manipulated” the array in Central City, all he needed to do was connect the dim portions to the lit portions. He didn’t need to understand the symbols, he just needed common sense.
This ti, shutting off the function of the subsidiary arrays was simply doing the exact opposite.
Elder Nova could only watch pale faced as Dyon completely diffused what could have been a disaster the mont his true body awakened.
