Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2521

'Lith's mana, stamina, and life force are at their peak condition. The exertion is only on his mind. Unless he asks me for it, I'm going to respect his wishes.' Faluel said.

Nalrond was the first to recover. He used fusion magic to get rid of the mana poisoning due to the prolonged mind link with Lith and his meditation technique to mitigate the aftereffects of the Eyes of Menadion.

As for Lith, he had a harder time due to suffering from the same issues and the strain from organizing the massive load of information they had collected. Thanks to his bond with the tower, Lith could access all of its functions.

Yet due to Solus being away with the stone ring, every interaction required an effort to overcome the distance and the magical protections separating them. A single action like accessing Soluspedia or the dimensional pocket had a negligible cost.

On the other hand, conjuring the Eyes and then using the tower core to filter so much data further burdened his already strained mind. Even with the tonics and the rest, by the time Lith stood up his face was still pale and had dark eye bags.

"Are you sure you don't need a nap?" Faluel's silvery voice sounded like nails on the board to him.

"I- We don't have time for that." Organizing his messy thoughts into intelligible words was so tiresome that he half spoke and half panted. "There's no telling when my tracker will be discovered.

"Once it runs out of energy, it will lose its cloaking abilities and at that point, the monsters will know that their position has been compromised. If they move to another location or if their scouts notice our presence, everything will be for naught."

Faluel nodded, understanding that his real worry was Solus' safety and what might happen to her were she to be caught.

'That poor girl is alone against thousands if not dozens of thousands of monsters with unknown abilities and with no way out. Stealth is her only protection and one single moment of distraction would spell her doom.' The Hydra thought.

'Between her weakening core and the mental pressure from the nightmare scenarios that must be playing in Solus' head, she must be terrified.'

"So, I'm going to show you what I discovered and I'll leave it to you to find a solution while I focus on my recovery." Lith used a tendril of Spirit Magic to form a mind link with everyone. "Clench your teeth because this is going to hurt."

He had no eidetic memory so he had to conjure the Eyes and read the information from there. The flow of images started slow but quickly grew in volume and speed, turning into a raging river that flooded the minds of his companions.

"Slow down, dammit!" Ajatar clapped his temples, trying to contain his head that seemed to be about to burst open.

"Any slower and this will take us all day." Lith replied.

"Ajatar is right." Faluel reverted to her Hydra form to exploit her seven heads to ease the pain from the mind link. "If we end up like you, we'd be useless as well."

Lith snorted but complied, thinning the stream of information until the Drake found it manageable.

"Can't you just project a hologram for us to study?" Quylla asked, her head throbbing even after the flow of the mind link had been significantly reduced.

"Sure. How long do you need to read and understand this?" The schematics of the basic hexagonal cell structure of the arrays appeared in the middle of the group.
