Chapter 328 - Communication Device, Acquired!
Two days later.
"Huh! Someone's coming," Grey, who was sitting before multiple papers which had different array lines on them, looked in the direction of the door.
With a wave of his hand, he kept all the papers in his storage ring.
Knock! Knock!
He soon heard knocking on the door.
Creak...
The wooden door made a creaking sound as it was opened.
"Master Gerald asked if you would like to see Donald?" Diluc asked after walking in.
Grey initially wanted to complain about how he entered the room without waiting for his response, but he decided to let it go when he heard what he said.
"Alice's father, how did he know I was here?" Grey asked.
He had been in contact with Alice during these past two days, and according to her, she didn't tell her father, nor anyone of their contact.
"He doesn't, he only came to ask if we knew of your whereabouts. Master Gerald told me to come ask you if you'd like to see him. Now answer, yes or no," Diluc said.
Grey thought about it for a bit before nodding, since Donald came looking for him, maybe it was because he had decided to let him see Alice. Although it wasn't really all that important now, he didn't mind seeing her.
"Here," Diluc threw a brown robe to him.
Grey didn't ask any questions and wore the robe.
"Well, technically, you're a criminal in the eyes of the Emperor and his people. Otherwise you wouldn't be hiding here," Gerald chuckled.
"I'm going back to cultivate," Grey said before turning back to the room.
He didn't expect Alice's father would be this stubborn, even after he apologized to him, he still refused to allow him see Alice. This will change after he comprehends the space element though, so he wasn't too bothered.
After going back to his room, he focused mainly on the device. Whenever he was trapped in a difficult situation, he would start comprehending the space element to get his mind off arrays.
It worked wonders as within two weeks, he was able to make a breakthrough in making the device. He managed to make one separately; now, all he had to do is to add it to the already existing arrays on the disc.
This was what he found challenging since it would be difficult connecting them.
"Should I just make one like this, and forget about connecting them?" He asked himself.
This seemed to be the more rational decision since it would save time, but he wanted to make an improvement to the communication device.
"This will do for now, I'll improve it later. What's important now is that we can speak to each other. But I don't know the limit of the distance, I'll have to ask old man Gerald," He muttered.
Distance was going to be a very important factor of this device, if he doesn't know the limit of it, then it would be a wasted effort. If he could find out the distance, then he could work on improving it.
He already knew it could contact someone who's in Red City, that was thousands of miles away from here. But he didn't know exactly where Klaus currently was, so he couldn't guess the distance.
If the distance on the device turns out to be too short, then they would not be able to contact each other after he leaves Frost City.
He quickly contacted Gerald, and to his surprise, he didn't need to improve it since it could travel across two empires. That was a massive distance.
"How did they do it, impressive," He couldn't help but praise after finding out.
With that, he started working on three others. He wants to finish it, before focusing his full attention on the space element.
One week later, he was done with the devices.
"Void, take this to Alice, let's test it out," He handed one of the devices to Void.
'Okay,'
