Chapter 494: Making the Pillars Ready

This meant they might screw things up, ruining everyone's hard work if they committed a single mistake here.

Everyone worked for long hours while Arthur never stopped his tour or his pointers to them. At the end of the day, everyone had already mustered their tasks, and they were now efficient in doing it.

"The show time," Arthur muttered to himself while feeling much excited about this.

He went towards an empty region while asking others following him, "make those cooks and their aiders to come, also send for those writing letters all day to come as well."

He was now ready to start step one in making the array; the pillar formation.

This seemed to be one of the hardest steps, as it was a race against time. His only hope was for the team he selected to be ready to work efficiently together as one hell of a giant team.

"Bring a batch of monsters," the moment the two teams gathered, he said to his system.

As his system brought over a hundred monsters he agreed with in the area, Arthur turned to glance seriously at the two teams before speaking out loud:

"What I need from you is to work as one coherent unit, without timely working together then everything will be ruined," he pointed towards the monsters before adding, "the first thing is to take the long bones out in as little time as possible. This will be your first task to do," he pointed towards the team of cooks and their helpers of warriors.

"At the same, each single long bone cleared from a single monster must be worked upon by one of you. If more can work at the same time on the same bone, then it's fine."

He pointed towards the next team where one asked:

"What letters should we write there?"

"For the long bones you'll need to strengthen, condense, absorb, light, purify, and pillar. As for the short bones, you'll need to write transformation and pillar only."

They glanced at each other while Arthur didn't know what was wrong in his words.

"Ding! They can't tell the difference," the system finally spilled it out, making him realize his silly mistake.

"Alright," he went towards a group of copies held by one of them before taking the papers, taking his brush and started writing the meaning of each symbol. "Now you can tell what I meant, right?"

They all nodded as they took the copies and translated the other copies in the same way while they wrote in other papers the arrangements he just said.

"Now," he turned to the two teams before adding, "we need some to kill the monsters."

"We can do it," Amelia who came with others when noticing he was about to start doing his grand project said.

"Oh," he noticed them before nodding, "alright, first arrange yourselves into smaller teams, each contains a group of chefs and warriors, and enough to write letters."

In a couple of minutes, fifty groups appeared in front of him. "Alright, we'll start just with three for now," he said before adding, "others watch and learn. Next time you'll all do this together."

He didn't want to divert his attention over many groups, especially when this was their first time doing so. "Kill three monsters," he said to Amelia, who went with Randy and Omar each to one monster to kill.

Once the monsters were killed, he shouted at the three teams, "go and skin them fast, you've only two minutes to do so."

His shout made everyone move at once. He noticed how nervous they were, yet with their large number working on the single monster, he was sure they were more than enough to make it by time.

"Go, write over the bones with the blood," he shouted the moment the first long bone appeared. The system had already bought three big containers and felt them all with the green blood of the Golam.

Arthur watched them working while feeling more nervous than all. In less than five minutes, the three long bones were skinned and covered with letters.

"Great," he commended before adding, "go and work on the shorter bones now. Any ready bone delivers it to the writing team to work on it. you've got half an hour to do so."

This time they worked with less pressure, and in less than ten minutes they all completed their tasks.

Arthur didn't hurry to comment as he moved first to observe the bones and the writings over them. "Nice, not a single mistake, and from the first time. It must be beginner's luck," he laughed when he found nothing was off here.

"Alright," he then turned to other teams before loudly asking, "any questions?"

"What are we making, lord?" one of the warriors asked.

"Not that one," Arthur laughed before adding, "Seeing it is much better than explaining in plain words. I meant any questions regarding the making process so far?"

Each one went silent and no one spoke for a whole minute. "Good, you can start killing fifty monsters now for them to use."

Amelia led everyone on her side to kill monsters while the fifty teams started to work. Arthur stood in the middle, giving some directions every now and then. When the fifty teams finished, they only took less than quarter an hour to finish the task, much faster than him.

He checked the bones and was quite satisfied with them. "Good, we can proceed with the next step," he muttered.

"There are more steps?" Madly asked in surprise.

"What are you making here exactly?" Amelia asked with more surprise.

"You'll all know in time," he just mysteriously laughed and didn't explain anything more to them. "Go and bring me those array making teams, and the diagram team as well," he said before adding, "know what? Bring everyone here, it's time to make the other team ready."

He waited patiently on the side for ten minutes before the other three teams came to stand there. They watched with puzzled looks the two previous teams got mixed up and formed new fifty teams.
