Chapter 1706: 464 Ether Star Core and the Theft of Authority_3

Matthew gazed briefly,

as if peering into the profound depths of the Multiverse.

Simultaneously,

a familiar sensation rushed towards him.

It was…

an exceedingly dangerous explosive signal!

...

Warning: You have discovered the legendary explosive “Ether Star Core”!

Ether Star Core: Once activated, this device can project a series of legendary spells originally burst in the Ether plane (Meteorite Annihilation, Malicious Distortion, Reality Remodeling, Destruction Beam, Chaos Calamity, and more) into reality, achieving a destructive explosive effect!

“You…”

“Are not a Summoner?”

A trace of astonishment finally appeared on Matthew’s face!

Butterfly held the Ether Star Core aloft in the palm of their left hand, a faint smile spreading across their pale face:

“Now, allow me to formally introduce myself.”

“I, Butterfly Ingram, am the honored chief resident of the Tower of No Illusion in the Cyberdragon.”

“Of course, I am not a Summoner, but a legendary Machinist.”

That instant,

Butterfly seemed to Matthew’s Insight to glow warmly like the sun!

Turns out, this individual was one of the primary sources of the impending Chaos Storm in Order City!

The days he left the Ingram family, he actually went to Cyberdragon!

Matthew looked at the opponent’s slender figure and somewhat short stature, resolving some of his doubts.

“That stature, indeed matches the typical style of Machinists…”

“What actualy is the Ingram family thinking?”

“Appointing a legendary Machinist as the lord of Order City?”

Matthew thought the world had truly gone mad.

His gaze gradually became uneasy—

He was joking.

Dragon Lich Sects and the like never frightened Matthew.

But Machinists were a far more unstable and terrifying factor than necromancers!

Butterfly obviously noticed the change in Matthew’s expression.

He showed a hint of helplessness:

“Just as people often have huge misunderstandings about necromancers, outsiders also have no small prejudice against Machinists.”

“Most Machinists are inherently good-natured, and our vision is to make the world a better place through the power of elements and mechanics.”

“As for explosions, they are just minor hiccups along the way.”

“No one can change our Will to persevere through these hiccups, don’t you think?”

“Mr. Matthew?”

“Ms. Bobo Wilkins and I have met several times, and she has nothing but high praise for you. Compared to others, I believe you have much less prejudice against Machinists, right?”

Matthew stared intently at the Ether Star Core, a smirk appearing on his face:

“Of course.”

“I’ve always gotten along quite well with Machinists.”

“Why don’t you put the star core away first?”

Butterfly shook their head:

“No.”

Matthew frowned slightly:

“If you think of using this thing to threaten me, then you are terribly mistaken.”

“Even if you activate this star core right now, even if Order City is razed to the ground, I myself would not suffer the slightest harm.”

Matthew’s words were true.

He could, at any time, retreat into the safety of the Lost Paradise.

It was an almost invincible refuge.

Except for the Heavenly Mage,

he was confident that no one could trace the existence of the Lost Paradise.

Let alone something like an Ether Star Core explosion which would practically destroy everything nearby.

“I didn’t mean to threaten you; in fact, this Ether Star Core is not just a super-sized legendary bomb, it can also be used to command all elemental life to behave more obediently.”

Butterfly said gently:

“Trust in the technology of Machinists, this product isn’t designed for destruction; it is an authority, an authority to control and constrain elemental creatures within the city.”

Matthew outwardly heaved a sigh of relief.

But inside, he became even more vigilant.

He readied himself to escape to Lost Paradise at any moment.

“So, what exactly do you want to do?”

“Or, what are you trying to tell me?”

He asked bluntly.

Butterfly said with a smile:

“You must have heard the rumors from the Seven Cities Federation, how the Lotus Sword Saint brokered an agreement that hurt a lot of interests in the north, and many are secretly trying to sabotage our partnership.”

“Order City is the first to face this.”

“First, the followers of the Dragon Lich Sect occupied the underground palace, then there was the leprosy virus pandemic, and now the progeny of the God of Murder have started killing at will.”

“According to my original plan, it was to lure out all potential saboteurs and then use this star core for a decisive strike of Intimidation.”

“But now, I’ve changed my mind; perhaps it’s best that I don’t appear in person.”

As he spoke,

Butterfly suddenly flicked a finger and the floating white sphere drifted lazily in front of Matthew!

Matthew took a deep breath:

“You want to use me to complete this task?”

Butterfly said smilingly:

“Isn’t that exactly what you were planning to do?”

“I’m just giving you the official authorization and commission from Order City, you should welcome that, right?”

“As long as it can provide the greatest Intimidation to those villains, whether or not you need to use this star core, it’s yours.”

“Be careful, injecting any mana into it will cause it to explode; the timeframe is about two to three seconds, depending on the day’s temperature…”

Before he could finish,

Matthew suddenly grabbed the star core, then injected a trace amount of mana into it.
