Gazing at the cube before him, Sein realized the Magus World’s upper echelons had likely failed to uncover any method within it that could counter the Gallant Federation’s endless waves of lower-tier robots.
If the cube truly possessed such power, it would never have been returned to him.
Even so, Sein had already resolved to give it up if it could serve the greater good.
The cube, however, was no longer the same as when he had first handed it over to Sir Klopp.
Its surface had darkened, shimmering now with specks of light. At a glance, it resembled the starry expanse of the cosmos.
Yet its appearance was not the only change. Having studied the cube extensively before, Sein could sense something far more profound stirring within.
It was difficult to describe, but if he had to, he would say the cube now pulsed with a strange vitality!
For the first time, he felt he might be able to draw out its full potential.
It was not that he had unraveled this technological artifact’s mysteries, but rather because the cube itself seemed willing to acknowledge him.
After courteously sending Bosh away, Sein returned his attention to the cube in his palm.
“Looks like the energy-gathering array I engraved on its surface has changed... this is far more advanced than anything I could’ve carved myself!” he muttered, eyes narrowing as he examined the intricate markings.
“These micro-engravings... the precision is beyond belief.”
