My Ten Wives and Ten Rings in the Apocalypse-Chapter 156 Successful
For a couple of seconds, the room was silent as everyone glued their eyes on the scattered disk.
"I Failed!" Justin whispered in a slight daze. He never considers failure as his option. Alas, the reality defers to his calculation.
As Kira and Chloe heard his whispering, they blinked their eyes in confusion. Could that be considered a failure? Their thoughts spiral in dismay.
Kira opened her mouth to speak but the word failed to come out of her mouth. In the end, she chose to remain silent.
"I thought we're both geniuses but compared to you…." Chloe adjusted her glasses with a bitter smile.
"We look ordinary." She murmured.
Her intelligence in the science and tech field gave her satisfaction and a sense of usefulness in the camp. Although she wasn't a battle type, her ability is a core aspect of the camp which makes her more important than most fighters.
Thus, when she discovered the freaking ability of Kira, she was a bit dejected but when Justin was added to the fray. Her emotion was a tumor.
What made them proud was nothing but a side project for these two. And thinking of this, made me want to cry.
Coincidentally, Justin recovered from his failure and detected the strange mood in the atmosphere. He noticed Kira was shocked and excited while Chloe was a mixture of the two and with a hint of sadness. Thus, he didn't need to be told to understand what she was feeling.
"Why do you look so dejected?" He asked with a calm voice.
Chloe looked at him and didn't know how to respond. Could she say she was jealous of their ability?
Seeing this, Justin shook his head and said. "If you continue to behave like this, you won't be able to progress and what you fear will happen."
"Instead of thinking of something that is not important. Why don't you focus that energy on how to develop yourself and the field you're studying." He said with a cold voice laced with anger.
Chloe panics when she detects a hint of anger in his voice. She bit the corner of her lips as she didn't know what to say. She hated herself for behaving like that and wanted to apologize but dare not. She chose to accept her mistake and tried to get her priority straight.
"I don't want to see this again. Let's focus on the research and help each other out. Is that clear?"
"Yes." Chloe nodded quickly.
With that, the trio returned to their seats and began to focus on their research. Since the three of them took notes from the Book of Knowledge, they need to use it and revise their notes.
Chloe and Kira were still far from the testing phase while Justin was trying to locate where the error came from. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐om
The basic protective array he set up was only for testing. He wanted to test his understanding and the result couldn't be more than obvious.
'Is it possible it is the array disk?' he pondered as he was lost in thought.
Hence, he picked the array disk and studied the markings on it, and checked if there was any error.
Although the disk looked crude, the marking alignment was placed currently. Nevertheless, he scrutinized the disk to be assured.
When he discovered that there wasn't any discrepancy on the array disk. He focuses on the core part of the formation. He was so concentrated that he didn't hear anything from his surroundings.
He started his study all from the beginning. Now, it was not studying to get familiar with formation but to understand the underlying meaning of array formation.
Moreover, all his actions were watched by the flabbergasted Kira and Chloe. Thus, prompting them to buckle up. They can't be left behind. Unknown to the two ladies, a hidden competition had begun among them. They dared to compete with Justin but against each other, they were confident in themselves.
Whoosh!
The book of knowledge was open and Justin focused his attention on a particular section. Frequently, he murmurs and writes some words in his notebook while sometimes, he would close his eyes to digest the meaning of the content.
After an hour, the deep glow in Justin's eyes shone brightly as his understanding of array formation had reached another stage. Previously, if he was a novice, now, he was a beginner.
Bang!
He closed the book of knowledge and jumped to his feet. He picked the First Circle array disk and went to the previous position where the formation was and began to set the formation.
Bang!
The purple light shines brighter than the previous but unfortunately, it was a failure. Nevertheless, a light smile appeared on Justin's face as he wasn't concerned by the failed formation.
'Now, I understand,' he chuckled inwardly.
He turned to look at Chloe and asked. "Can you forge another disk?" Although he was asking, it was not a request but a polite command.
"Yes." Chloe nodded and got on her feet.
"The second Circle bone is ok." He said. "Don't worry if there aren't enough bones or skin. Use what we have in reserve."
"Alright," With that, Chloe left the room in a large stride.
"Have you discovered the error?" Kira asked when she saw Chloe leaving the room.
"Yes." Justin nodded as he picked up the second circle's beast bones and began to set up another formation. But this time around, he was using all eight disks.
He placed the eight array disk on different parts of the room. Although, it seems he was placing the disk just anyhow, their corresponding node that connects each of them.
After a couple of seconds, he completely set up the formation and took a deep breath. While Kira couldn't help as her heart was racing in fear and excitement.
"Activate," he said in a low voice as golden light came out of his finger and flew toward the core of the formation.
Buzz!
A slight buzz came from the array disk and a purple light came out of the eight disks. The light shone brightly as it covered the room entirely, forming a protective sphere.
___Basis Protective Formation___
Tier: 1
Grade: Common.
Evaluation: A formation made by a beginner array master. The formation could be better if the array disk is made by an experienced array disk maker. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

"Success," Justin muttered in elation. He didn't care about evaluation as he was now an array master.
"Y-You…" Kira's voice trails off as she was too happy. This is my man. She shouted in her heart.
Looking at the smiling Justin, a radiant glow appeared in Kira's eyes as she rushed to give him a warm hug.
"I knew you could do it." She murmured.
Haha.
A light laugh escapes from his mouth as she hugs her tighter. It would be a lie if the first failure he said the first failure didn't affect his mentality but now. It was a success.
The duo was in each embrace as they looked at the purple light in elation. However, Kira didn't know the usefulness of the array. Nevertheless, she knew it was something important when she saw Justin's expression.
As she wanted to ask what was the use of the formation, she heard a bang from the outside. At once, the duo turned their heads.
Chloe stood dumbfounded outside the room as she crashed into a purple light. She rubbed his forehead and glared furiously at the entrance.
'Who dares to play a prank on me!?' she shouted in her mind. The slight pain from the collision made her think straight.
Meanwhile, Kira and Justine were looking at Chloe with fascinating gazes.
"Is this what I'm thinking?" Kira whispered.
"Yes. It is a basic protective formation." Justine responded.
Kira quickly understood the meaning of the protective formation. Previously, she was excited because he had successfully created the formation but now. She was astounded when she realized what this means for the camp.
Bang!
Chloe punches protective formation as she studies its behaviors when she hears Justine's voice in her ear.
"Are you going to destroy my first array prototype.?" He said as he switched off the formation.
Hmm!
Chloe looked at him in surprise as she saw the purple light disappear.
"You succeed— Congratulations." She murmured and entered the room.
"Yes. Thank you"
After thinking for a moment, Chloe said in a low voice.
"I can guess the uses of the formation and its importance. But we need to improve its power for us to use."
"I know but that won't be the problem since I can now create an array formation." He said confidently. "What do you think of the array disk? Can you improve it?"
"Yes… but I need to study the array disk a bit more. Perhaps, you can give me a note on the array disk for me to study. With it will create better disk"
"Good! Let's do that"
"Your highness, we need your attention in the control room." A young male voice came from the radio.
Without further ado, Justin rushed to the control room and when he arrived at the control room, he knitted his brow at the scene in front of them.
