With the introduction of the Dark Side Pump, the focus has shifted once again. If this pumping operation can achieve good results, the empire will be able to live in peace for a while. But if Operation Reclamation doesn't have the desired effect, most of the council doesn't want to know what will happen to the Empire.

"Sophia, didn't they ask you to participate in the Dark Side pump?" Andrel asked Sophia.

"No, after all, my main direction is on the Demon Fighter side." Sophia responded, "Don't expect anything from me. I'm only level 6 clearance. I think you know what that means. "Level 6 authority is the authority possessed by an outstanding Nine-Ring Mage or an ordinary Grand Arcanist.

"In that case, the people who participated in the pumping this time were all Grand Arcanists with seventh-level authority? The empire is not afraid of chaos. Patrick said.

"It's not a way for us to be excluded from the core like this. We want to do our part for Ryan, too. Andrel said.

Sophia glanced at Andrel and said, "Isn't that why we huddle together to keep warm." Why can't you settle down? If your gods want to see it, they will call them to come and see it, so why should you be told to do petty theft? ”

Orbis and Samodiel want to reach into the shadows, which is a well-known thing in the council. So the empire is well guarded against it in this regard. And Sophia, the remnants of the Third Arcane Empire, are treated better than them, they already have two Grand Arcanists with seventh-level clearance, and according to the information Sophia has received, she will also be upgraded to seventh-level clearance soon.

"The news has come, let's take a look." Andrel said as he opened the interface of the communication network.

"Hello everyone, it's me Morris again, and this is the front line of the Dark Side pumping. Here we can get the latest news. Please don't wonder why I'm standing in the office of the Institute of Parliamentary Studies and talking to you. Because now the dark side has been blocked. Except for those involved in the pumping scheme, everyone else was kicked out of the dark side. But don't worry, news here is still the fastest. Morris said.

"Morris has always been so poor-mouthed, completely different from what he looks like." Patrick said.

"yes, and he's not been interested in the study of gods lately. Perhaps he thinks that the dark side also contains information from the gods. Andrel said with some sarcasm.

"I can't say for sure, I see that the lords of the two of you are also concerned about the dark side." Sophia said. She had a good impression of Morris.

"So let's take a look at what we're getting right now. At present, all the pumping personnel have already agreed, and the pumping will start after the connection of the mages on the dark side is completed, and it will probably take ...... Well, the reality time starts in 5 minutes. At the beginning, there will be a 48-hour pumping operation in real time, and then at the end of the operation we will get a Super Magic Stone. So what are we going to do now? Wait for that super magic stone to be born? Now I feel like it was a bad decision to take over the reporting work. Whether it's a stupid wait of five minutes or a stupid wait of 48 hours, they are all just as stupid. Morris said. Morris then returned the controllers of the Beam Circle to the real reporters.

"Thank you Grand Arcanist Maurice for the sweeping coverage, and now, let's shift our focus to something more specific...... "Without Morris's interruptions, the reporting went well.

"Looks like the dark side pumping is going well. It is estimated that it should have gone smoothly. Sophia said.

"So what are we doing together? Why wait two days? Patrick said.

"Who knows, praying for two days doesn't seem to be bad." Andrel said, raising his hand.

"Why are you so idle, aren't you also one of the designers of the Demon Fighter, how can you not see the shadow of the two of you in the later maintenance." Sophia said.

"We're the Pope, and we're no less important than Douglas." Patrick said. The two popes will not do this kind of time-consuming, laborious, and inquiring about the time-consuming and laborious maintenance of the career design, and there is little to gain and no news.

"In that case, let's get here today first, and we'll talk next time we have a chance," Sophia finished and left.

"I can't get any news at all." Patrick said to Andrel.

"Then I can't help it, Sophia's path is much easier than ours, and the council has made it clear that it wants to win her over. She certainly won't be with us all the way. People don't need to warm up with us anymore, and naturally they won't be with us. Andrel responded.

"You said that in two days, we will be able to participate in the installation of anchor points on the world barriers?" Patrick said.

"I think it can, anyway, this is also a thing that fits the profession of a demon fighter. The current astral boundary is not for everyone. Andrel said.

And the facts and Andrel are not bad. Two days later, outside the barrier of Ryan's dark side world, five Grand Arcanists and 12 Nine-Ring Demon Fighters were waiting for something on the barrier.

"Patrick, you, Andrelil, and Sophia are all designers of the Demon Seiya, so from the perspective of the Mojo, let's talk about the hole in the World Barrier outside the Star Boundary." Nelson said.

"Obviously, Blair was also involved in the design of the Demon Fighter, why don't you tell him." Patrick said, "From our point of view, it's really a job that requires the participation of the Demon Fighters. The Astral Plane is not a comfortable place, especially now. Therefore, the Demon Fighter who can adapt to a variety of environments and exert his full strength is indeed very suitable here. And this matter is actually not dominated by the Demon Fighter, the real leader is still the Great Arcanist who is on the dark side at this time. They choose the location, they place the Philosopher's Stone, they make the final determination and test. And we're just out there to pick it up. ”

"Alright, I just got the message, the location has been confirmed on the dark side. I believe that it will not be long before we can see the reaction on the barrier. As soon as Nelson finished speaking, there was a reaction from the barrier not far in front of them.

A flash of light flashed. A bright spot appeared on the slightly curved barrier, which was due to the fact that the Philosopher's Stone had been fixed to the Dark Side Barrier.

"Come up and take a look, kids, that's what you're going to do next time." Nelson flew up to the light spot and said to the 12 demon fighters.

"First, we use the Nine Rings spell - Nelson's Hand. Ah, it feels a little weird to say a spell named after me like this. You can also use other Nine Rings level control spells, and the specific list of spells is listed in the Code of Operations. Nelson said.

"Once we connect with the Super Magic Stone, we can start to perform a small amount of mana power release to test and calibrate the position of the Magic Stone on our side." "It's actually not clear to me until now why a point that has been identified on one side can exist at multiple points at the same time on the other," Nelson said. One-to-one correspondence is no longer appropriate here. Maybe there's something going on from the Dark Side Barrier to the Astral Barrier that we don't know about. It's a wonderful world, isn't it? ”

Nelson's mouth was chattering, and the work in his hands did not stop, and with a few small amounts of magic energy, different bright spots flashed in different places around the magic stone on the barrier. Move the Philosopher's Stone again, test again, calibrate again, finally. After the three-hour calibration, the Philosopher's Stone no longer flashes around it, indicating that the two sides are fully connected. The Philosopher's Stone has finally been secured.

"Let's try the feeling of connecting the Philosopher's Stone, too. To be honest, I don't think the sliding of the astral plane is too good this time, move the magic stone a little bit, and then find a completely connected point. There's no wisdom in there, and I'll look into what better ways to be less mechanical. ”

With the location of the Astral Magic Stone determined, the task of a group of them can be said to have been completed, and then they only need to wait for the dark side barrier to be reinforced and encapsulated, and then fix the position of the astral barrier again. This is not difficult, several Nine Ring Mages tried to connect one by one, and the dark side has already completed the fixed encapsulation. Compared with the end of the dark side, the end of the astral plane is simpler, and the three Nine Ring Mages have completed the fixation independently. Next, the Dark Side will install a signal transceiver system on the anchor point formed by the Philosopher's Stone, but that will be a big deal for them.

"Alright, our mission is accomplished. Let's go back. Nelson began to fly in a queue around them towards Ryan behind the ramparts. After a certain distance from the barrier, Nelson can return to the ground directly with a teleportation spell instead of using a flying spell.
