After a minute of thinking, I moved.
My destination is region seven. I need to go there and, if possible, get my hands on that crystal.
It would help me tremendously. If I am able to get even the slightest sample of it.
Till now, I only know of my own forbidden power. I didn't come across the others. I wonder whether it is neutral or specialized.
Yes, there are differences in forbidden power.
As one reaches the Prime. It begins to change.
If one desires; one could take their forbidden power toward the trait, where it becomes good as bending rules of particular things, better than neutral forbidden power.
I pushed those thoughts away and focused on the map in front of me.
If everything goes well, I should be able to reach there in a few hours.
Both of the primes are moving in the same direction as me. I am not sensing them, but I am tracking the marks their presence had left behind.
An hour passed and then another, when I sensed the Prime and it was a Mid-Prime.
I quickly went toward him. A few minutes later, I walked away with the confirmation. Prime Talzin didn't lie; I didn't feel it was a lie, but I couldn't trust it.
I now trust the news a little more.
Three more hours passed, and I am now just two hours away from my destination, when I suddenly stopped.
"You got to be kidding me," I cursed.
I thought I would get at least one day before I would come across, but no such luck.
The storm was coming, and I didn't have more than a few minutes. Fortunately, I have been looking at every building; I have been passing by and there is one very close that could save me.
The storm didn't become visible yet. The energies had barely started vibrating, and they were doing it so faintly that even Peak Prime wouldn't notice it.
I had data from the last time, and my clone was parsing through everything I sensed.
So, at the moment, it saw the signs. It had alerted me.
Half a minute passed, and signs became clear enough that Peak Primes would notice the storm would come. Latest content published on novel[f]ire.net
I moved faster, seeing how the energies started vibration.
The energies here are powerful enough to produce a category-two storm. Which isn't just a lot of more powerful than the category one, but also fast.
Forty more seconds passed, and the energies started clashing. Producing the storm energies.
I could feel the storm energies and their densities going rapidly. I had activated the storm defenses on my armor; I had made changes.
This time, my armor will be able to bear it better, but it would give me a minute at most.
It cannot bear it. I will be vaporized without a trace. If I had tried that.
A minute passed and the storm energies got very dense. They enter inside me, before getting repelled by the back, but they won't be in another half a minute.
Thankfully, I am very close to my destination.
Ten seconds passed, and I reached it. A nine-story tower; the seventh floor of it is broken, but there is a formation covering it. My earlier broken told me, that it could be passed through and stable.
I flew toward it, reaching there in a second, and took a step inside.
Though not before throwing several things out.
Last time, I was running away fast, before stepping into the jump pad. This time, the storm is right outside. Giving me a golden opportunity to collect the precious data.
My clones had forged them specifically to test the power of the storm.
If I get the data, I want. I might be able to make enough changes in the abode to bear a category one storm.
My abode isn't weak. I had used a lot of precious material to forge it and formation, I had used the ancient runes. Not to mention the cube, which I had tinkered to power my abode better.
So, there is a good chance I might be able to do it, but I need to be sure of that before I try anything crazy.
I looked around and saw it empty broken. Everything that had been here had been taken away long ago. Leaving nothing but an empty building.
I do not mind. I have more than enough stuff.
I didn't enter my abode. Instead, I brought out the chair and sat down. Watching the dark golden energies get denser and denser.
It didn't seem to affect things in place, which isn't surprising.
Ten minutes passed, and everything turned dark gold. Like a real storm, it is so dense. It became hard to see, even neighboring buildings.
It got even denser in the next few minutes, and I could see nothing but the dark gold.
This is the terror of the storm. Nobody could survive it.
There are a few reports of powerful Primes with high comprehension of laws surviving it, but those are just reports. There is no concrete proof behind them.
So, they might be true or false. I might be able to get an idea from the data, those balls would collect.
I just hope they will survive.
They are made of very powerful materials, but it is the formations carved on them that I am worried about.
Over twenty minutes passed when I felt the storm fading and in a few minutes. It had finally disappeared.
The storms come fast, but they also disappear fast.
I waited for a few seconds before coming out. There are some energies, but my armor could bear them.
The first thing I did was collect the balls.
With that done, I resumed my journey, with strings moving around me. Collecting the seeds of the moss and waiting for them to grow.
So, I could collect the grown moss too.
It will help me a lot against the storm when I might not be able to find shelter on time one.
