'Almost done,' the golden dragon spoke on behalf of the very busy Gege.
"Good," Arthur glanced around and took a tour over the villagers before saying, "Great work."
'Thanks,' Gege said in a tired tone and even before Arthur could ask her about his enemy she added, 'and the tree is still looking.'
"Oh… alright, let's start here then."
'You'll have no role here until the final array starts,' the golden dragon said before adding, 'we will drive energy to a certain spot beside the egg and when we accumulate enough we'll inform you to start the array that the original soul gave to you.'
"Sounds like a plan," Arthur was still burdened by the issue of his enemy and his tone said everything he was feeling at the moment. "Start," he gave the signal before watching a great number of monsters appearing all of sudden in many places in this gigantic array.
It wasn't an exaggeration that this array covered a great piece of the garden itself. In fact it wasn't just one array, but many combined together to drive energy from the monsters and store it in one place.
And the next moment the villagers activated the arrays and Arthur watched all the monsters being covered in thick veils of energy resembling the one happening when absorbing the vital organs of them.
These curtains of energy remained for ten minutes before dissipating and revealing only bones behind. As for the energy absorbed from all these monsters it was controlled and moved towards a certain location before Arthur spotted a change there.
A giant bubble started to take shape, originally started as a faint halo but later it started getting thicker and corporeal with more monsters slain here.
And this continued for an entire day where he used the advantage of time difference inside the garden than the outside world for his advantage.
"We are getting closer to the limit I think," Arthur said when the energy ball turned opaque and he couldn't see anything through anymore.
'Just couple of hours more,' the golden dragon said, 'but generally we are almost done.'
'The number of monsters here is really big,' Gege said in a tired tone, 'we only used less than one tenth of the number we are driving inside.'
'Ding! Should we stop the portals outside?' the system asked.
"No, keep them flooding here," Arthur muttered before adding, "after all we lack good pets and my army is just getting bigger without limit."
'Alright,' Gege said before adding, 'and no news yet.'
'Ding! And no news from me as well.'
"I… didn't ask anything," Arthur was speechless before sighing, "I'm not that distressed anymore. Most likely she escaped fast to be safe."
'I told you so,' the golden dragon said.
"Anyway let's start our final preparations," he turned his glance over the egg before adding, "move extra villagers here to take the position of the last array."
'But I don't know the layout of the array,' Gege said.
"C'mon, you already read my mind," Arthur smiled faintly, "if you don't recall it I can remind you of it."
'Hahaha, sorry was joking, forgot about that,' she laughed while Arthur only smiled.
His mood was totally ruined by that sneaky enemy of his.
As time passed fast, the final batch of monsters was slain and now all that remained was for the final team to activate the array and drive the energy towards the egg.
Yet there was only one problem.
"I don't know how long the egg would take to be activated," he muttered while thinking about this issue.
'Should you go inside and ask that master?' Gege proposed.
'I doubt we have time for that,' the golden dragon sighed, 'didn't he enter the last time and took over one day to come out? We can't risk doing that!'
"Alright," Arthur sighed, "I'll go there and try to withstand the lightning as much as I can."
'Ding! This will be hard,' the system sighed.
"But no other option here, right?" Arthur muttered before adding, "after all if the egg would take a long time to be activated then it's fine, but if it's just a few minutes then we will be in trouble."
'I can try and contain it,' Gege said.
"I doubt you can," Arthur sighed before adding, "let me out, I need to go to that place now."
Arthur went outside to the real world once again. The first thing he did was to take a fast tour in the city and check things there in a rush before heading directly towards the mountain series.
However…
"A bird's wing from Amelia?"
Just as he left the city he got a bird's wing ignited in front of him. He stopped in tracks and held the paper before rereading its content for more than once.
'This is… weird,' the golden dragon muttered.
'Ding! We have little time here,' the system warned, 'Ding! Fifteen hours no more!'
"Gege… move me back to the city now."
'Shall I leave a portal hidden here?' she asked and he instantly nodded.
The bird's wing contained a simple phrase: "Amanda is back and she is saying she is the real one."
Arthur didn't know what was going on and he just wanted to see if this Amanda was the real one or not. The next moment he was teleported to his city where things looked greatly different from the emptiness his new city was.
"Meet me at the palace," he sent towards Amelia using the bird's wing before flying fast towards the palace in the heart of the gigantic city.
The city was now almost completed in the central zone. It contained various districts with three to five story buildings most. Some places contained even higher buildings but most of these in this zone were low leveled one.
And the touch of elegance and beauty was apparent everywhere.. The streets were wide and clean, while paved with a special kind of ore that turned the ground smooth and not too slippery.
