Thomas acted in a better way than what William thought. And as thetter kept finishing one scroll after another, William started to take these scrolls, put new ones in front of Thomas, and marked the finished ones down in numbers.


    He knew this ce was too big to be drawn over just one scroll. And so he nned to rearrange the scrolls once Thomas got the effect of the elixir worn out.


    After marking the scrolls, he checked them for a few minutes before storing them in one of his rings. Gradually things kept looking peaceful without any problems or hups, while Thomas and William kept doing their tasks without pause.


    Out there, people were growing restless. At first, everyone expected violent explosions, the same way it happened before. But gradually things started to look boring and dull.


    "What the hell is he doing in there?" Landy was one of those who lost their patience fast. She loved to hear explosive sounds rather than all this stillness.


    "Who knows?" Alfred rolled his eyes, "this kid has been a mystery since the first moment I saw him."


    "I thought you were close friends with him or something," Andy gave Alfred a deep nce, and thetter couldn''t help but wrylyugh.


    He used the excuse of having a good friendship with William to convince the two friends alongside him. This might be the first reason for the husband and wife to ept working with William, but soon enough they got convinced when they heard the conditions of this deal.


    *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*


    Just as the three of them were speaking, the same thing everyone here was doing, a series of loud and violent explosions erupted from the territory.


    The sealing arrays worked their best to hide what was going on inside. But the violent ground shaking and explosive noises that came from within was enough to tell everyone what was going on.


    "Yes!"


    "Atst!"


    "Hahahahaha! That kid is roasted! Hahahaha!"


    And just like the series of explosions that urred out of the blue, lots of people cheered and shouted in weird happiness, as if they knew everything that was happening inside.


    pαпdα`noν?1`сoМ Inside the territory, William was standing in his ce motionless, while his flying knives were dancing in the air.


    "I can''t believe this dude used such a way to arm up this entire ce!"


    Thomas didn''t finish yet, not even getting close from mapping ten percent of the entire ce.


    William didn''t need to wait anymore. After long hours of collecting scrolls and marking them down, inspecting their content for a few minutes, he started to have an idea inside his mind.


    As he expected, the drawings Thomas did were something he recognised. He didn''t believe it at first, as this sort of ground array was used in the outer world by a certain and specific group of spirit masters.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    They were known as the Sweepers! As no matter who their opponent was, no matter how many enemies they fought, they usually ended up killing everyone, sweeping the entire ce with explosions and deadly traps like these.


    The magnitude and lethality of the bombs used here in these traps suckedpared with the ones Sweepers used in the outer world. However, the mainyout of these bombs and traps was weirdly the same.


    These folks dealt with the ground as if it was a grand structure of rocks and dirt. As they got a special Earth spirit element, allowing them to separate ground intoyers, creating bubbles in different depths, they could ce any bombs in these bubbles, apanied by triggering arrays.


    When William noticed the shocking simrities between the two designs, he started to recall how to deactivate these bombs and traps.


    There was indeed a way to conquer Sweepers. If not, these folks would have ruled the outer world a long time ago.


    The way was simple, using many weapons at the same time, attacking different spots simultaneously, while triggering the traps and bombs at ces that wouldn''t let these deadly stuff regenerate or reform.


    He just got the right method to deal with this entire thing out and started at once to try doing it.


    To do it, he had to use and control various weapons at the same time, controlling them to attack the traps at specific spots.


    And that was where his flying knives came into the picture.


    If another person was here, he''d have to use the help of a team of spirit masters, timing their attacks and weapons right tond over the traps at the same time, or else everything would be for naught.


    "Hmm… I used just ten of them and still these traps didn''t get deactivated," William knew if the traps got deactivated, then they would burn in green fire. And that didn''t happen.


    He looked again at the few scrolls that he ced on the ground in front of him. "Don''t tell me…" After a few minutes of thinking, William couldn''t help but have a weird idea.


    If that dude already saw the future, learnt about him and many of his secrets, then wouldn''t he ce these traps for his twenty knives to unlock?


    "I have to try," William controlled his twenty knives, and targeted double the number of traps he targeted before.


    *Rumble!*


    And this time, in addition to the violent explosions that happened, the ces he hit with his flying knives caved in, rumbled, and released thick bellows of green gas and fire.


    "It worked! Hahahaha! I knew it! Hahahaha!" William felt ecstatic at this moment when he saw the signs of deactivating these traps.


    William didn''t need to hit every single bubble deep down the ground to deactivate them. In fact, just knowing the ce of the traps at the surface, hitting the ces there at the right spots was all he needed to do.


    These traps were all connected together in some sort of a mechanism, one that''d make the bomb all detonate if touched wrongly or get deactivated if they got hit at the right spots.
