"Move now!" he triggered the array and the next moment he felt like an ancient behemoth had awakened.
The array started to boil. He kept stirring it up and the stored energy kept going aggressive, violently clashing even against each other and even him.
"C'mon," he endured, "crush that weak energy fast!"
He pushed the energy towards the surface, and he felt that bronze energy was starting to take the shape of a gigantic pillar. The pillar was getting formed fast, but the surrounding energy of the world was converging faster.
"Now!" he didn't panic as he already anticipated that. The next moment he moved the array energy upward, and alongside with it he felt his consciousness being carried away as well.
'Ding! You need to retreat… open your eyes now!' the system hurriedly shouted but Arthur didn't comply.
"Not yet," he knew the moment he would do that the array would grow suddenly weaker. At such a critical moment he wouldn't let his fear of his safety overcome the bigger goal he worked so hard to achieve.
So he kept his consciousness inside the pillar, exactly at its core, while the pillar clashed ferociously with the world's energy and finally started crushing it.
"Pop!"
"Pop!"
"Pop!"
The higher it went, the more popping sound it appeared. The pillar kept getting higher and finally broke through the world's energy siege, getting outside the ground.
"Now!" Arthur didn't hesitate to open his eyes and withdraw his consciousness at this moment. The pillar was already on its way upward to the sky and the world's energy was just trying to relentlessly catch up.
However there was little worry over the array now.
"Please work," he prayed while watching the previously well formed gigantic pillar to look like a hazy image of a massive amount of bronzed wisps plunged into the sky like a gigantic spear.
The moment it reached the sky, it paused for a brief moment. "Now what?" Arthur felt worried all of sudden and thought he withdrew earlier than he should have done.
'Ding! It's connecting to the dissipated energy up there,' the system reassured him, 'Ding! I believe it's about to start the portal.'
"At last!" Arthur watched the thick rivers running in the sky to change direction and start to swirl around the pillar like a giant whirlpool. The energy kept spinning and in less than a minute a large portal was about to be formed.
"Damn! That world's energy is really savage and persistent!"
Yet before the portal would be fully formed, the entire bronzed pillar shook in a way visible and clearly perceived by Arthur.
He hurriedly changed his gaze towards the distant horizon and muttered. "I hope they can catch up what I did and start activating theirs."
He didn't doubt Doaf and Amera to notice what he was doing here, but he was very worried right now. The portal was about to be formed, and failing at such close distance from success was the most bitter feeling to anyone.
'Ding! They are activating their array finally,' yet the words of his system coupled with the sudden roaring sound coming from distance made Arthur heave a deep sigh of relief.
"I hope things won't become any worse," he muttered while watching the portal become more corporeal, a clear sign for its activation, "or else we escaped the pan and jumped directly into the fire."
By their activation, the world's energy started to grow weaker and thinner around the portal. "One last step," he muttered, "just take it and the portal will be fully opened."
As he waited, he noticed the other array was getting fiercely attacked and the world's energy around that spot started to cause tornadoes and hit the ground fiercely.
"I hope it won't reach that," Arthur softly muttered before turning around and glanced at the sky above. "If it hits here I doubt the array would be able to sustain its power anymore."
He wasn't worried about the array itself, after all it was deeply buried underneath the ground. The thing he was worried most about was the large number of trapped monsters inside the array.
They wouldn't survive these fierce tornados and that would deprive the array of its source of energy.
"C'mon," as he was worried about that, the sky started to show signs of these tornados. He could spot already a couple of them getting formed from the sudden gush of wind around.
And in the next couple of minutes, more tornadoes were formed and mercilessly hit the entire ground and mountains all around.
"Damn!" he turned his eyes towards the portal that was about to take form, "I need to do something!"
'Ding! You have nothing in your hand to do!' the system said, yet the help came all of sudden in the form of many portals appearing all over the place.
'I thought you might need a helping hand,' Gege's voice cheerfully came while laughing, 'I'll move all of them into the garden and keep them in bay there.'
"Gege!" Arthur shouted in happiness, "hahaha, you just came in time!" He laughed as he watched all the deadly tornadoes fall over the portals and nothing hit the earth.
"We will do it," he muttered, "we can do it," he waited in anticipation while the portal was getting solid with each passing minute.
These portals Gege summoned came to enrage the world's energy; it seemed as Arthur watched more tornados appearing in the short time span of five minutes.
Yet any tornado appeared was hugged by a portal, letting them vanish off this world without doing any harm.
"It's finally over," Arthur watched the portal getting real and thick before the color of the sky changed. A deep bronze color appeared and prevailed over everything around, making him quite happy and content.
The bronze energy seemed so strong that it started to crush all the tornados forming around the portal. Seeing this and hearing the fierce roars of the two energies clashing with each other didn't startle Arthur.
His focus was now gathered over the portal itself, waiting for it to be linked successfully and show the world beyond.
"What the hell is that?!!!"
He couldn't help but be shocked by the scene that appeared inside that portal.
