Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 4280

Chapter 4280: The Astral Codex and Everythings! IV

|I am thoroughly analyzing this new tool and the system it represents, Master. The potential applications are... extensive.|

On the first page of the Codex, a single, magnificent Astral Arcana Glyph was displayed. It was a shimmering, conceptual card of light, and on its surface was a picture of a massive, crimson-gold flaming serpent, its body a river of fire, its nine pairs of wings spread in a glorious, terrifying display!

|Astral Arcana Glyph|

|Name: Nine-Headed Sol Serpent|

|School: Elemental|

|Rarity: Common|

|Description: ’The sun is not a gentle warmth; it is a relentless, all-consuming fire.’ This Arcana summons a manifestation of a Primordial Sun Serpent, a creature of pure, incandescent rage. The Serpent unleashes a torrent of nine distinct, guided solar flares.|

|Cost: 2,500 Units of [Elemental] Everythings, 1000 Units of [Basic] Everythings.|

|Requirements to Cast: None.|

|Effect: Deals 550 Quadrillion in Complexity-based Living Existential Elemental Damage, striking up to nine separate targets. Applies [Immolation] to any target not collapsed, dealing a residual 10 Quadrillion damage per second for one minute.|

|Cooldown: 10 Seconds.|

...!

Oh.

Oh!

Noah and RUIN/EDEN processed the information in a silent, lightning-fast exchange.

’550 Quadrillion damage... from a ’Common’ Arcana?’ Noah thought.

|The damage output is indeed disproportionate to its rarity classification, Master. However, the cost is also significant. 2,500 Units of a specific Everything is not a trivial expenditure. But the most significant anomaly... is the cooldown.|

|A 10-second cooldown on an ability of this magnitude is not just unusual; it is a conceptual impossibility. It violates the standard principles of existential energy transference and recovery.|

A 10 Second cool down for an attack thst could decimate many powerful beings!

Noah turned his gaze back to Vulcan. This terrifying fucker had not just given him a powerful tool; he had given him a mystery.

"How can one acquire more of these Astral Arcana Glyphs?" he asked, his voice a calm, even tone. "Of even rarer ones?"

Vulcan looked up from the schematics, a devilish, knowing smile on his ancient face.

"There are two paths. The first is the path of a merchant. You can seek out other bearers of a Codex and trade. Arcana for Arcana, a simple, elegant transaction. Or if you have something that other Early Creatures want, some may part with their Astral Arcana Glyphs. The other path... is the path of an artist. You can obtain the methodology to design your own. A knowledge handed down to our Lord Gilgamesh himself, a gift from THE Living Spirit and THE Living Dimensional. You can only obtain such knowledge from him."
