"Aisha is already able to walk."
While eating the beef over rice bowl and watching the TV series on the screen, Rachel said with her eyes glued to the screen.
While studying the map of the royal city on the computer screen, Todd casually remarked, "Oh."
Rachel glanced at Todd: "She keeps asking me who saved him?"
Todd jotted down a string of numbers on a piece of paper, still looking nonchalant: "What did you say?"
“I told her that it was Mr. Derek who saved her.”
Todd didn't react for a moment: "Who's Derek?"
"You forgot? We were on her ship, under that alias you used."
Todd was stunned for a full five seconds before he finally remembered that when he left Twilight City, he had casually transformed into a young man to conceal his true identity.
Setting that question aside, Todd turned the monitor toward Rachel and pointed to a spot a kilometer outside Ammar: "The exit of the secret passage is here."
Following the direction he pointed, Rachel nodded and said, "Leaving here, less than two kilometers south, we can enter the forest, where the enemy's pursuers will have a hard time catching up with us."
Todd didn't speak, his eyes fixed on the screen.
Rachel asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is something the problem?"
"I am reminded of a quote from Cumberland."
Which sentence?
"There are many uncertainties in war because everything is in flux."
After an hour of discussion, Rachel was sent out of the soul space, and Todd began to establish a network of contacts for his other identity.
During his time as Boyle, Todd met many new people who would play a significant role in the future construction of the barbarian outpost.
Incorporating them into the soul space is a crucial part of the subsequent escape.
At this point, I should briefly introduce Todd's soul space.
When Todd faced Clarence, the soul space he had just acquired was extremely small, consisting of only a single-level room of about 300 square meters, the main part of which was just a multi-functional conference room.
As the number of people connected by souls increases, the soul space continues to expand.
Today, the main building in Todd's Soul Space is a three-story research institute, with each floor having a floor area of approximately 1,600 square meters. It includes functional rooms such as conference rooms, sample rooms, network centers, laboratories, imaging rooms, a cafeteria, a swimming pool, and a gym.
The outdoor space, which was originally a dense fog, gradually expanded into a small town of four square kilometers.
Although the town, apart from the research institute in the very center, has no other decent buildings, only natural scenery like grasslands, hills, streams, and snow-capped mountains, things related to the soul-linked individuals can be seen everywhere. For example, Mary's beloved flower 'Liliel,' Cumberland's prized steed 'Wind Chaser,' and Rachel's favorite rare fruit tree…
Looking out the window of the research institute at the soul space, Todd became increasingly confused about what secrets lay behind this space, which was a manifestation of thought.
After some thought, still without an answer, Todso focused his attention on the present matter.
First, a place must be found in the soul space to receive the soul linker who is Boyle's identity.
To prevent the two soul-linked individuals from becoming aware of each other's existence, this newly developed area must be isolated from the research institute, and its existence must conform to Boyle's identity.
After much deliberation, Todd chose the basement of the research institute as the reception place for Boyle's soul.
Since it is a place for the embodiment of thought, it was not difficult for Todd to open up a new world in the basement of the research institute.
There is no need for construction or transportation of construction waste.
Simply create a high-speed elevator in the central courtyard on the first floor of the research institute.
Next, at a depth of about 500 meters below the ground of the research institute, a huge temple with a height of 70 meters and an area of about 5,000 square meters was dug out.
In terms of decoration style and architectural layout, Todd plans to refer to "Undercity" from the World of Warcraft game from his previous life.
In the Soul Space, Todd spent almost 48 hours completing a rough outline of the entire dungeon.
The completed underground temple, viewed from above, is a nested circular architectural layout, with a massive circular platform at the very bottom center. Countless iridescent minerals illuminate the entire underground space. Twelve colossal statues are situated at twelve different locations within the temple, facing the central throne platform.
Todd sat on the throne in the center of the temple, looking at the surrounding underground scenery, and let out a long sigh: "The venue is almost ready, now it's time for the members."
To organize the escape operation on the day of the celebration under Boyle's identity, Todd's first thought was to bring in Ackerman and Casper as the first Soul Linkers.
Todd will definitely be forced to participate in the gladiatorial games on the day of the celebration, so the task of guiding the Boyle people will naturally fall to the pair.
If one can maintain constant contact with these two individuals within the soul space, then one can grasp the entire trajectory of their escape.
After leaving the Soul Space, Todd found the two in the training grounds on the first basement floor of the "Red Circle".
Leading them to a secluded corner, Todd looked at them and calmly asked, "Do you believe me?"
Although they didn't know why Todd suddenly asked the question, the two answered truthfully.
