My Space-Time System

515 New rank preparations (part 3)

“Only if I could employ a Geomancer this wouldn’t even take up to 2 hours, but that would mean I would have to kill him to make sure that the escape route remains secret.” Blake thought as he was reminded about the conspiracy theory that all those that built the white house were eliminated to keep its layouts a secret.

Blake soon began using plasma to cut through the ground, but that was when a thought hit him.

“Why the f*ck am I doing this?!” Blake quickly stopped the fusion spell and went upstairs to meet Ebony and Ivory who were staring out the full glass window.

“I need you guys to do something for me.” Blake said causing Ebony and Ivory to look at him.

Using the mental communication link, Blake explained his plan to them, but to his utmost surprise, they returned to looking out the window.

“I wonder what I should do with all the beast cores I planned on giving you guys?” Blake thought aloud as he began walking away, but soon Ebony and Ivory chased after him.

With the help of Ebony and Ivory, the time and energy needed for the excavation process were reduced to a fraction. To prevent alerting the neighbors about the ongoing construction, Ivory had used ice easily carve through the ground, while Ebony turned all the debris into ashes.

The depth of the tunnel was meant to end some meters away from the sewers, while the length of the tunnel went through the front side of the house, past his opposite neighbor’s house, and into the sewer.

After 4 hours of continuous digging, Ebony and Ivory had finally reached the marked-out area. Blake fed them 2 king-rank beast cores and tens of Knight rank beast cores.

.....

“Anyone that dares to attack will be in for a surprise!” Blake thought as he returned to the tunnel.

While Ebony and Ivory were digging the tunnel, Blake wasn’t idle. The traps he planned on setting in the tunnels required the knowledge of dimensional arrays, so he took out the books on dimension magic given to him by Professor Hoffenheim.

The books contained the theory and steps needed to create dimension arrays, void daggers, and to turn one’s body into a dimensional array.

It was from the books that Blake learned how to create spatial marks; the spatial marks were basically beacons that could be detected even when in the void, but he had to revisit them because creating the traps was more complicated.

After revisiting the book, Blake was able to come up with a combination of arrays that his traps. The traps consisted of 4 components; the first was the sensors that activated the trap when someone was detected, the second was the dimensional arrays that opened a spatial corridor to the void, the third was small energy crystals that powered the traps, while the last component was the concealment arrays that concealed the entire trap.

When the sensors detected a target, a spatial corridor would open up. If the target was unlucky, they would end up dying in the void or losing a limb when the spatial tear closed. It was a simple but deadly trap that could kill Angels if they weren’t careful.

“Even if they somehow manage to avoid the traps, it should still be able to buy me enough time to escape.” Blake thought as he began setting the traps at different locations in the tunnel.

After that, Blake went to the end of the tunnel and planted a power source before connecting it to the walls and inscribing them with strengthening and concealment arrays. The power source was to power the arrays and create a blanket of flowing mana on the walls to prevent mana vision from spotting the locations of the spatial traps.

With a different power source for the tunnel even if an attacker somehow managed to destroy the power source, everything in the tunnel would still be up and running.

“That should be all for today.” Blake said after inspecting the escape tunnel and traps for loopholes.

Blake returned to his room and freshened up before having dinner and calling it a day.

…

Although the escape route was completed, Blake’s plan of upgrading his house’s defense was only 50% complete.

The final step of the upgrade involved having a dome that would protect his house from at least demigod spells. This was because everything he had done so far would be for naught if a single attack suddenly leveled the entire house.

The dome would prevent one-shoting him and would give him the opportunity to make use of the escape route.

Creating a dome of such strength would require thousands of arrays as well as a powerful power source to power them. This would take Blake hours of nonstop work to complete, so rather than crafting it himself, Blake decided to buy it.

Money could always be made but time can never be gotten back once expended. So, I shall buy time with money!

Blake wasted no time heading to the Adventurer association to make another round of purchases.

‘The best quality of having money, no, excess money is the freedom that comes with it.’ Blake thought as he was making customizations to the magic dome he was purchasing.

Magic domes were very costly even for nobles, but as long as one had enough gold coins, he had the option to change things like the power source used, color, and size of the dome.

Once he was done with the customizations, he made payments and then continued shopping for other things needed to upgrade his strength. As for the dome, it would be delivered to his address later that evening.

…

After close to an hour of shopping, Blake was finally back. He had a quick breakfast of chicken and waffles before getting to work.

I am planning on making a proper cover page for MSTS; currently learning photoshop cause Author-san is too poor for that ??

An Instagram page will soon be up for announcements and memes concerning MSTS and other future works. So anticipate!
