The connection process went smoother than anticipated.
After adjusting the core, Celine ‘saw’ the interior of the obelisk—or rather, the entire control system. With the four magic power cores and the bottom of the obelisk as the parent body, it formed an intricate system. Magic power oscillated back and forth and emitted harmonized ripples.
After a moment of mulling things over, she gained a new understanding of the system: the four cores utilized different abilities to maintain their revolutions around the Deity of Gods, and the one controlling them was the parent body located at the bottom of the obelisk. But that was not entirely accurate as well. One could tell when observing the flow of magic power—the parent body only had one function of transforming magic power, similar to the operating levers on the Fire of Heaven.
The levers activated a few gears, valves or wire ropes, all of which were well designed components with the crucial point being the simplification of the complicated process. Typically, it took Celine a great deal of time, much less to control four at once. However, after experiencing the inconceivable simplistic transformation, it seemed possible.
She hated to admit it, but the demon Nassaupelle who had thought of the system was truly a genius.
Ignoring the replication of an exact same system, if not for the knowledge bestowed by Roland from the Dream World, she might not even be able to understand the system.
This gave rise to her suspicions.
The Union had once examined the records of a parent body and discovered that they were either a variant demon or a Chaos Beast birthed from a magic stone. Since it was a living creature, the Union believed that it had it was sentient and would undoubtedly hinder the control. How was it that the senior lord was able to transform it into a complete ‘tool’ capable of only taking orders?
Aside from that, Celine discovered from the intricate system that the obelisk itself was not important, and functioned more as a receiver and amplifier. As a crucial object that the demons depended on to survive, yet not part of the Deity of Gods, it was completely different from what she assumed the obelisk to be.
With her strong sense of curiosity, Celine extended her perceptive tentacle onto the parent body.
In that instant, an inconceivable image appeared before her—
“Oh my god…”
She could not help but exclaim in surprise.
It was actually a large ‘network.’
Within the large network composed of brightly lit lines, there were many twinkling nodes. Celine realized that they were the demon cities and more concentrated towards the large continent facing the Land of Dawn—Blackstone Region! Celine also discovered many more dim nodes that were scattered outside of the network, akin to lusterless pearls.
What shocked Celine even more was the familiar sense she had within the parent body.
There were no obstruction upon entry, as though this place was not a frequently visited place.
A carrier!
Celine quickly reacted!
That’s right, although it was a type of demon, the changes within it had made it somewhat similar to a carrier. It no longer had its own consciousness and only kept its basic instincts, the most crucial aspects to be a ‘controllable hub!’
There was no doubt that the technique was related to the underground civilization.
So that’s how this is operating… Mixed emotions rose within Celine—a mix of the excitement of discovering new technology and realizing the merciless intent behind it.
By relying on a destroyed race’s technology, the Union was able to implement a transformation plan for the ‘God’s Punishment Witches.’ And as inheritors of the legacy shard, how could the demons not make use of it?
Reality proved that their technology was far ahead compared to the Union.
