Chapter 2548 That's Also Correct
Lostrai also added a few conditions after that. "However, don't expect me to reveal anything about my own formations. They are mine, and I spent a very long time researching them. I would rather not have a new vessel than part with my knowledge."
"I thought we agreed that those equipment were not made by you," Rean got confused.
"They haven't," Lostrai confirmed. "Nonetheless, just how long did you think I spent in this place? If I'm given the necessary materials, I'm confident I can rebuild everything. Just don't expect to get that knowledge from me."
Rean didn't mind. "That's fine. I already know quite a lot about Circuitry Formations. Or perhaps you call them Lightning Type Formations or something like that? Whatever. I'm curious about the Circuitry Formation Runes I saw in that source of energy of yours, but I won't pry further."
The Fragment's sentience was surprised to hear that from Rean. Nonetheless, he kept silent, fearing that it was just a ploy to extract information from him. Little did he know that it was the truth. Rean's Circuitry Formation Knowledge definitely doesn't lose to Lostrai.N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.
"Now that we have reached an agreement, do you mind talking about what is really being held in this place?" Rean changed the topic after that. "You didn't deny when I mentioned this place was being used to hold someone or something, after all."
Lostrai went silent for a moment before deciding that this information wasn't of much use to him. "That Ruined City above, that's just one of the five cities you can find in this Azum Dimensional Realm. Every single one of them acts as a bigger formation that holds a certain being at the central point between the cities."
Kentucky couldn't help but ask. "Did we perhaps destroy the source of energy that was holding this being? You admitted you weren't the one who made that source of energy, you know?"
"That's correct," Lostrai confirmed. "But there is no need to worry of that being escaping this place. As long as at least two of the five cities' sources of energy are working, the formation that holds it will keep working without an issue. I often visit the other four cities, making sure the other sources are working perfectly, so it is safe at the moment."
"And what exactly is this bring?" Rean asked back, curious. Everyone there was curious.
"Who knows?" Lostrai answered without caring too much. I've never turned the formation down to check, so as far as I'm concerned, it might be dead already. However, according to the information I found in the cities, it is not something any Divinity Realm expert can deal with. Thus, I made sure it was kept sealed regardless of what it might be."
Rean and Kentucky didn't seem that concerned, different from Iolanda and her group of Shadow Ferals. "Not something Divinity Realm can deal with? Is that even possible?"
They couldn't be blamed for thinking like that. Even Lotar didn't know about the existence of Semi-Celestials since he reached the Divinity Realm here in this place. If it was outside, he would have heard about them.
Iolanda then shook her head, seeing they were going into other topics of not as much importance. "Forget it. Whether it is alive or not, it must be sealed for a reason. No one here could possibly fight something that Divinity Realm can't fight against, so let's make sure it stays very well sealed. Once we escape this Dimensional Realm, we can think about it again... or not think about it ever again instead."
Everyone nodded, agreeing that was the best choice. Of course, Lostrai might just be lying, but it matters little now that he is captured. "Lostrai, what about the memory chances when one leaves this Azum Dimensional Realm? Don't tell me you don't know. It was obvious that it was you who made the changes in everyone's memories."
Rean answered that. "Let me guess, it is also part of the formations you took for yourself in this Azum Dimensional Realm. Am I right, Lostrai?"
"Hehe!" Lostrai didn't deny it. "Why wouldn't I use them? Thanks to that, I was able to make copies of real angels and send them out to investigate the outside world for me. The technology in this place is truly advanced. That is also why you can forget about me sharing it."
Rean and Kentucky looked at each other. By now, they were already sure. 'It is definitely something that came from outside of this Universe,' they thought at the same time. Rean's father, Romario, was able to use Soul Worms from outside of the Universe to control all the angel races, so making copies of memories or changing them shouldn't be that much of an issue. Of course, they didn't mention that.
"Alright, will our memories be affected if we leave now that you are captured?" Iolanda asked. "Also, the altars don't work for us. Was it you who messed with them so our Shadow Ferals could go out?"
"Both are correct," Lostrai said. "It is an automatic process. You set the requirements, and the changes happen according to them. Oh well, they did, at least. I used the facility in the first city since it was the closest to the entrance. It was that facility that allowed me to make these changes. Now, it is gone... thanks to your actions, that is. The other cities also have similar facilities, but they wouldn't be as useful due to how far they are from here. You can go there and check by yourselves if you want."
No one was really in the mood to do that. "So... if we use the altars now, we can leave? And we can leave without having our memories messed up?"
"Should be possible," Lostrai didn't hide it.
"But that would mean to leave you here in this place, correct?" Rean asked with a pensive expression. "After all, you want to escape this place. If just destroying the facilities was enough for you to use the altars, you would have left a long time ago."
Lostrai was happy Rean realized that. "Smart. That's also correct."
