Chapter 2248 Variables

Date- Unspecified

Time- Unspecified

Location- Lil Red Storm Planet, Unspecified

For an array formation to achieve maximum efficacy and maintain st.u.r.dy durability, the array master must take location into account, along with a.s.sociated variables such as climate, atmosphere, soul energy density, environment, landscape, etc. This is one of the factors that distinguishes a regular array master from a veteran one.

However, even the most experienced and talented array master, if tasked with setting up an array formation in a realm other than their native one, would not be able to do so immediately. They would need time to study the atmospheric and environmental variables of that realm.

On the Card World, array masters have standard array formation charts and tables, which serve as tools to calculate locational variables with minimal error, whether on the surface, in the sky, underground, or underwater-excluding dungeons. These charts and tables were created by the first card apprentices who ruled the Card World, laying the foundation for the five regions long before the founding masters of the current central government.

Over time, many talented array masters have contributed to updating these standard charts and tables, a.s.sisting their peers. As a result, while array formation is still far from becoming a common household product, it has significantly contributed to current society by increasing safety, productivity, and overall quality of life.

As the wielder of the Primordial Soul Pupils, Wyatt did not need such tools to understand the chosen location for setting up an array formation, whether in his native realm or elsewhere. However, just because he could study nature's soul pathways to gather data on all the locational variables didn't mean he fully understood them. He needed to grasp how these variables affected one another. He could make a.s.sumptions, but only by observing them in action could he determine how they influenced each other throughout the year, during different seasons, and how they impacted the array formation.

Usually, Wyatt would have a solution for this kind of problem: the Hive Al's simulation engine. Since he had precise data on all the locational variables thanks to his Primordial Soul Pupils, the Hive AI could simulate an exact replica of the location and accelerate the time period to observe how the variables interact-considering factors like the revolution of the realm around its two suns, the effect of its multiple moons, and the celestial array formation.

However, Wyatt was unable to do this due to the celestial array formation of the realm. It was impossible to predict when it would attract a meteor or asteroid. Every

time a meteor or asteroid entered the realm's atmosphere, it sent ripples across the entire realm, which could acc.u.mulate into a large wave or even a tsunami, much like the b.u.t.terfly effect.

Wyatt could theoretically calculate when the celestial array formation would pull a meteor or asteroid into the realm if he had knowledge of all meteors or asteroids whose paths fell within the array's range. Although his Primordial Soul Pupils were G.o.dly, they were not capable of that. Tracing the paths of meteors and asteroids that would enter the range of the realm's celestial array formation would require omnipotent-level clairvoyance capable of monitoring myriad realms. Even with such power, it would take centuries to trace every object whose path coincides with the array's range.

The only ent.i.ty Wyatt knew capable of such a feat was the Devil Merchant Code. However, hiring its a.s.sistance on such a scale would require astronomical capital, making it impossible at his current level.

As a result, Wyatt had no choice but to build the strongest s.p.a.ce furnace barrier array formation suggested by the Hive Al, based on countless simulations, while considering the uncertain variable of the celestial array formation pulling meteors and asteroids. The array formation was reinforced with this variable in mind. If fortune favored him, the array could last centuries. If not, the celestial array formation might pull a ma.s.sive meteor or asteroid right above it as soon as Wyatt left the realm, destroying it.

Such variables existed even in the Card World, but their chances of occurrence were far lower there compared to the Lil Red Storm realm. Therefore, Wyatt could only test this array formation the traditional way in this realm. However, it was a slow and lengthy process, meaning he wouldn't be able to sell the entire LSG deposit anytime soon.

He could offer it entirely to the Devil Merchant Code, but since the deposit had not been mined or refined, the Devil Merchant Code would not give him a favorable return. It would have to expend resources to mine and refine the enormous deposit, or store it until buyers were found. The Devil Merchant Code wasn't fair in regular dealings, so it was unrealistic to expect a fair trade now.

Though Wyatt was eager to restore his wealth as quickly as possible, he wasn't desperate enough to kill the goose laying the golden eggs. Even if he couldn't mine, refine, and sell the LSG deposit now, he would save it for the future, when he could extract maximum profit or use it when most needed.

However, now that Wyatt was going to spend some time in this realm, trying to gauge the extent of his power growth and its current limitations in his various forms, he decided to use this period to monitor the s.p.a.ce furnace barrier array formation at work, as well as the realm's reaction to the array and its integration into the landscape.

"You know, there are other variables, not just s.p.a.ce disasters. What I'm really

concerned about is the Will of the realm itself. So far, it hasn't shown any reaction to our arrival. But just because it's been accommodating doesn't mean it will tolerate all our actions. From its perspective, we're like aliens invading and stealing from it. We need to be prepared to leave this realm at a moment's notice once you start mining the LSG."

The Field Marshal solemnly warned Wyatt, as she knew how terrifying a realm's wrath could be. There were stories in the royal family about the Card World's Will extinguis.h.i.+ng an entire bloodline overnight for crossing its taboos.
