Chapter 1676: Chapter 1237: There is more in the national treasury, right?
On the Heathrow Plane, a peculiar device was newly constructed beside the Stargazing Mirror of the Astrology Tower. It appeared to be a smaller version of the Stargazing Mirror, but its magnification was much lower, encompassing a vast swath of the Void within its observation range.
Curious, Xisluo asked, "What use is such a small magnification?"
Tyrone explained, "Star Seeking, this is yesterday’s Star Map overlay. Take a look and see what’s different from today."
As he spoke, Tyrone inserted a transparent Magic Transfer Film into the eyepiece group and then remarked, "Your alchemy device for making White Crystal is incredibly useful. It can imprint starlight onto the film in a short time. Using it to print Star Maps is truly handy. I envisioned such a function before, but was unable to achieve it."
Xisluo immediately understood its purpose and excitedly slapped his thigh, "This way, there’s no need to manually draw changes on Star Maps onto paper or Magic Scrolls."
Star Maps change every moment; predicting their changes is the main focus of Astrology. However, the most tedious task for an Astrologer every day is manually drawing Star Maps on paper, marking them, and persisting in this task.
Without records spanning decades, your Astrology Tower isn’t considered mainstream. If you have records spanning millennia, you are a master among Astrologers.
If your Star Map is more complete and detailed than anyone else’s, congratulations, you are an authority in the Astrology World. Even if you talk nonsense, without Star Map records, others cannot refute you.
However, hand-drawn Star Maps are susceptible to errors and sometimes inaccuracies. An inaccurate Star Map cannot establish authority. Drawing them accurately is a test of patience.
Generally, such tedious tasks are assigned to apprentices or newcomers. If one cannot perform such detailed and conscientious work, they should leave early.
Thus, every novice Astrologer must endure a long and frustrating period of drawing Star Maps, a torment comparable to a blacksmith apprentice’s forge kinship.
Upon hearing of this convenient and easy printing method, Xisluo instantly recalled the painful days of his early apprenticeship. The printed overlay is certainly more accurate and authoritative than the hand-drawn ones. It’s an ideal auxiliary tool. Why didn’t he think of it? It’s using his technology.
He hurriedly leaned in front of the eyepiece, repeatedly pulling the overlay, comparing the changes between the two time periods of the Star Map.
Tyrone continued explaining, "The Star Seeking Mirror and the Astrological Mirror operate in parallel, but the field of view is larger. If there are changes, they can be discovered more easily. At this time, just align the center point with the change location, switch to the Astrological Mirror, and see the what the change is."
The Astrological Mirror has another flaw: the field of view is too narrow. Even if changes in the Star Map are noticed, aligning it to the corresponding position requires a lot of patience. Often, changes in the Star Map vanish abruptly. By the time adjustments to the Astrological Mirror are made, the changed area has already disappeared.
With the Star Seeking Mirror, it’s easier to pinpoint orientations across a broader range, making tracking changes in the Star Map easier.
Just as Tyrone finished speaking, he saw Xisluo swiftly adjusting the Star Seeking Mirror, with the entire Astrological Mirror gradually moving along.
Tyrone thought he might be testing functionality, but Xisluo, after some adjustments, switched to the Astrological Mirror’s position, glanced a few times, and said, "Old Tyrone, come and see, what’s this thing?"
Puzzled, Tyrone leaned in beneath the eyepiece and saw a bright spot, causing him to exclaim, "A Starburst Array!?"
...
"Starburst Array? Who’s used a Starburst Array? No one has. The Truth Cannon is here, it hasn’t been moved." Tyrone’s discovery reported to Anthony astonished everyone.
"But that light spot is a manifested human figure. Oh, a skeletal human figure! It’s very similar to the manifestation light we observed on the Master Plane during the Starburst Array. Isn’t it a Starburst Array?" Tyrone questioned.
Tyrone had witnessed the Starburst Array before, instantly recognizing it was the manifested light from the Starburst Array launch. It eventually collided with the Monarch’s Black Crystal Body, then exploded into the Faith Storm.
"Manifested light? Skeleton? Uh... Could it be a Heroic Spirit?" Negris suddenly said.
The light manifested by the Starburst Array is indeed the manifestation of collective will, so in principle, it’s similar to Heroic Spirits.
"Could it be the Friel Queen?" Anthony was shocked too. "What else are they hiding?"
The skeletal light from entering the Boundless Space Hole was captured by many Astrology Towers, swiftly stirring the entire Astrology World into a buzz, even more than last time’s Light Point Fortress, because this skeletal human figure was heading into the Boundless Space Hole from here.
With movement speed comparable to the Starburst Array boosting her, the Friel Queen arrived at this position where the Monarch was by the fourth day. However, without the Tree People’s precise positioning capability, she overshot.
During these four days, the Monarch naturally didn’t wait idly. Riding the Mourning Bone Dragon, he roamed around.
Orgal, puzzled, followed for a few days before finally asking, "Your Majesty, what are you doing? Searching for something? If needed, I can summon the Heroic Spirit Legion to assist in the search."
"No need, I’m gathering Origin Power. My departure from the Boundless Space Hole consumed too much. Restoring some power is necessary first," the Monarch said.
"Oh, Your Majesty, you’ve worked hard." Orgal suddenly felt a wave of heartache.
The mighty King Fei Lie, due to excessive consumption, had to gather intangible Origin Power in the desolate Boundless Space Hole. How long would it take to restore all his power this way?
Orgal quickly took out a bag, saying, "Since Your Majesty returned, we had nothing to celebrate. Here is some Origin Power, presenting to Your Majesty. Please do not despise it."
When the bag opened, it contained some finger-sized Chaos Black Crystals, numbering about one hundred and eighty pieces. Though they weren’t plundered from the Star Progeny Master to reach self-spin balance level, the scattered dots were still distinctly visible.
The Monarch looked at Orgal, his gaze bearing a hint of appraisal, making Orgal break into a cold sweat. After a while, the Monarch nodded, "You have shown consideration."
Reaching out, the bag flew into the Monarch’s palm.
The free Origin Power, surely the Monarch would not decline. Still, he instinctively examined the other party.
This kind of appraisal by a superior, performed naturally by the Monarch, possesses an aura not easily imitated by ordinary individuals, not even those strong entities like the Star Progeny Master.
The Star Progeny Master may be strong, but lacking in governing many people, without the imposing presence of a superior. Among so many individuals, one who can truly impersonate the King Fei Lie’s demeanor might be the Monarch alone.
After absorbing the Origin Power from the Chaos Black Crystals, the Monarch nodded satisfactorily. This was more than what he scraped together in the Boundless Space Hole for several months. Indeed, royal affairs suggest there are more treasures in the national treasury, correct?
The Monarch thought silently, suddenly feeling more interested in this King Fei Lie.
Just then, a light streaked by from afar, the Monarch focused, spotting a skeletal light with a robust female human inside.
"Hmm, Orgal, there, there can you see it? Is that the Friel Family’s King?"
