Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair Chapter 716 - The Array Trap

The group was absorbed inside the garden in a smooth way without any trouble. However the later groups ca with larger numbers and more problems.

"They are coming up at a rapid pace," Arthur was evading the attack of the fourth group while Gege was doing her job when he noticed sothing new.

There was another group rapidly approaching the portal exit.

'They aren't that big like this one,' Gege said.

'Ding! They want to exhaust you,' the system said, 'Ding! I believe if they keep coming in such a way then we won't be able to hold them.'

"What about Doaf and Ara?" Arthur was trying to keep himself away from any harm while jumping inside the garden and exiting it in a repetitive process.

'They are still entangled with the first group.'

"Till now?" Arthur wanted to glance and check at them, but his enemies never gave him the opportunity.

'Ding! You shielded them long enough,' the system said, 'Ding! I believe you won't be able to hold for the upcoming waves, so let's retreat and let them face these enemies before returning.'

Arthur thought about this for a long minute. "Let try to hold up as long as I can," he decided, "Gege, can you start a far away portal for to escape through?"

'Consider it done.'

"Great."

The worries of the system were proven to be true. Arthur barely managed with the help of Gege to withhold three more waves but then the enemy suddenly sent off five groups subsequently.

"They look desperate," Arthur muttered when he saw the large enemy passing through the portal, "take away."

'Right away.'

The next mont he appeared a couple of miles away from the portal.

"They are still coming at ?" he was surprised to see almost half of the enemies changing course and aiming at him. "Keep jumping around."

'Ding! Can the array trap them?' the system suddenly said.

"We'll… never tried it before," Arthur sneered while appearing a couple of miles away, "but let's put this theory to test."

'To the array?' Gege asked.

"Not the central part, the periphery is enough," Arthur said before adding, "select a place where no monsters exist in large numbers."

He was teleported three tis before finally appearing inside the array. There he stood still while watching the persistent enemies coming at him without rest.

"They look quite energetic," he said.

'What if they overca the array? Will they crush it?'

"And cut any way of retreat for their fellow friends? I hardly doubt that!"

'Ding! Just to be safe let him be teleported away from the array when so fall into the trap,' the system said, 'Ding! Let's test the ability of the array over small numbers first.'

"Good point," Arthur nodded before watching the frontal mages crossing the border of the array and falling into the trap.

'Ding! Now!'

Once the system said it Arthur was teleported away from the portal. "They bought it," he said when he saw the rest of the enemies changing course abruptly and heading after him.

"Keep tracking the array," he said, "and also see what these two are doing so far."

'They are still fighting,' Gege said, 'I've sent them a warning ssage through the tree. They looked like they were taking their ti to kill their foes.'

"We have no ti to play," Arthur complained, "make them haste and be ready for more enemies."

'Ding! What about the array?' the system asked.

'The array wasn't enough to contain them it seems,' Gege said before suddenly pausing for a few minutes while Arthur kept teleported one ti after another.

"Why did you bring here?" he stopped inside the array, which was sothing that puzzled him, "didn't you just say the array wasn't enough to deal with them?"

'The array failed to do so, but the monsters trapped inside went berserk when they appeared and kept killing them.'

"Oh," Arthur turned his gaze around to see himself standing in the heart of a dense trapse filled with a large number of monsters. "Good plan," he comnded her idea while already getting what she wanted to do.

'Let's hope they won't sustain this attack,' Gege said before adding, 'more enemies are crossing the portal by each minute. We need to return and keep it sealed.'

'Ding! They co in large numbers, I doubt we can handle them anymore.'

'No, they returned to pass through the portal in a few numbers,' Gege corrected him, 'it seems they can't get in contact with each other. Plus if this plan succeeded then we got ourselves new sources for fueling the array.'

"I like this plan more," Arthur laughed, "alright let's see how this trap will fare against such a large number."

He didn't wait for so long. In less than two minutes his enemies caught up and fell directly in the trap of the array.

He saw them moving inside the array at a slower pace like they were moving in the sand. Yet the array failed to greatly affect them.

However the next mont of their entry, the monsters packed in large numbers all around roared.

Then a brutal fight appeared where these enemies couldn't stop the monsters, a scene that made Arthur wonder about the reason behind that drastic change.

For him these monsters weren't able to move a single hair on any higher realm mage. However what he was seeing right now made him realize there were deeper secrets in this world, and he just had to witness one of them.

"I need to know the reason behind this," he said out loud, "if this way can be applied to a wide area, then we can crush any army."

'Ding! I believe the array is the reason.'

'I believe the world's energy clashing against the array is the reason.'

"I want clear answers," Arthur couldn't help but say, "speculations won't help much here."

'…'

'…'

The two went into silence and didn't speak while Arthur kept his silence as well. He knew knowing such an answer would be quite challenging, provided that he and his two friends here knew nothing at all about the life and rules of the higher realms.

But he had two great minds who could answer such questions.
