I am the Arcane Archer, and all my skills are self-created.

"Let me double-check." Hua Zitong organized the information in her mind, speaking faster than usual.

"The Realm of Origin is a filter. The Starbreakers are tools of the Unifiers, specifically designed to devour planets. The Unifiers themselves are the definers of laws, a level higher than Erlin."

"Humanity needs five hundred Transcendents, plus at least three Law Weavers, to have any chance of winning the war of extinction."

"Currently, we have fewer than thirty transcendents and two quasi-law weavers. The shortest timeframe is three years, and the longest is ten years."

"That's roughly right," Gu Yuan said.

"Roughly? Something's not right?"

"Regarding the two Law Weavers," Gu Yuan glanced at Li Wu, "strictly speaking, only he has truly reached the level of a Law Weaver. I'm still far from that."

Hua Zitong looked at Li Wu.

Li Wu did not deny it.

His performance in the Tower of Despair, his training in the Arcane Wasteland, and his effortless blocking of Gu Yuan's sword with the Law Barrier all demonstrate that his control over the laws far surpasses that of Gu Yuan.

But this is not something to be happy about.

It's useless if one person is strong.

He needs an army.

"Those fragments," Li Wu steered the conversation back on track, "How many pieces do you have in total?"

Gu Yuan opened his palm, and the number of fragments was clear—three pieces.

Three identical fragments, each with its own points.

"The six fragments that allowed us to travel through time have been exhausted." Gu Yuan picked up one of the six fragments. "This one is now useless."

"What about the other two?"

"This piece," he picked up the third fragment, "can amplify the holder's perception of the laws. I've been using it."

"This last piece..." He picked up the five fragments, "can produce a resonance effect. When one person holds it, the speed at which everyone around them comprehends the laws will increase several times."

Li Wu's eyes narrowed slightly.

Could this final fragment increase the speed at which everyone around can comprehend the laws by several times?

"How wide is the effective range?" he asked.

"About a hundred meters in radius."

"What about the multiplier?"

"Three to five times, depending on the individual. The higher one's talent for the laws, the greater the multiplier."

Li Wu remained silent for a few seconds.

Three to five times.

Within a 100-meter radius.

This means that if he were to gather these thirty transcendent beings together and train them under the influence of the resonant fragments, their growth rate could increase by three to five times.

The amount of training for a year was compressed into two or three months.

It's still too slow.

But it's much better than nothing.

"How did you get these fragments?" Hua Zitong asked a crucial question.

"These fragments were waiting for me in the final room when I cleared the Tower of Despair in Zone 0," Gu Yuan said.

"There's a Tower of Despair in Zone 0 too?"

"Yes," Gu Yuan said. "All districts have it. It's just that the Tower of Despair in District 0 is the original design by Erlin himself, while the later District 36 is a simplified copy. The difficulty of District 0..."

He smiled.

"You probably don't want to know."

Li Wu did not ask any further questions about Zone 0.

The past is not important.

He was wondering what to do now.

Can fragments be copied?

"No." Gu Yuan shook his head. "Each fragment is unique, cannot be copied, and cannot be separated."

"So, these three pieces you have, plus the two I got earlier, make a total of five. Where's the last one?!"

"Where's the other one?"

Gu Yuan's expression suddenly changed.

The change was subtle, but Li Wu's perception of the laws detected it.

Gu Yuan's law fluctuations experienced a slight disruption.

He was nervous.

"The sixth fragment, fragment number three," Gu Yuan said slowly, "is in the hands of the Starbreaker."

Upon hearing this, Hua Zitong immediately stood up straight.

"The Starbreaker? How could the Starbreaker have fragments of the Lucky Dice?"

"When the die shattered, the fragments scattered across different timelines and spaces."

"I found most of them, but the third piece fell into the area where the Starbreakers were active. By the time I found it, it had already been absorbed by the Starbreakers' vanguard."

"Absorbed?"

"The essence of the Starbreaker is the distortion of the laws. The Lucky Dice itself is a creation of the laws, and when the fragments come into contact with the Starbreaker, they are naturally assimilated by it."

"Does that mean the Star Shatterer also gained the power of the fragments?"

Gu Yuan nodded.

"What is the ability of the third fragment?" Li Wu asked.

"Foresight".

Each word struck a chord in everyone's heart.

"The Starbreaker has gained precognitive abilities? It can foresee our actions?"

"It's not a complete premonition," Gu Yuan added.

"After the fragment's abilities were distorted by the Starbreaker, they became a vague sense of trend. It can't know exactly what we'll do next, but it can sense which direction a threat is coming from."

"That's why its vanguard arrived ahead of schedule," Li Wu suddenly realized.

"Yes. The Starbreaker sensed that more and more users of the laws were appearing on Blue Star. It judged this to be a threat, so it sent out an advance force in advance."

"So..." Hua Zitong's voice was tense, "the stronger we become, the faster the Starbreakers will arrive?"

"That's roughly the idea." Gu Yuan nodded. "That's one of the reasons I've stayed here and haven't gone out."

"If I use the power of laws on a large scale on Blue Star after I go out, the Star Shatterer will immediately sense it. It may directly accelerate the dispatch of its main force."

"So you're hiding here to avoid being exposed?"

"I can do more here," Gu Yuan said. "This platform beneath your feet is the last work left by Erlin. Its purpose is to catalyze the power of the transcendent to its limit."

"catalytic?"

"Similar to the Tower of Despair, but on a higher level." Gu Yuan pointed to the thirty-six stone pillars. "Each stone pillar corresponds to a deep cultivation of a law."

"Transcendent cultivators can cultivate here at a rate more than ten times faster than outside. With the added benefit of the resonance fragments, the efficiency can reach thirty to fifty times."

Thirty to fifty times.

Li Wu did some mental calculations.

Under normal circumstances, it would take a transcendent being ten years to master their own laws.

On this platform, in conjunction with resonant fragments, it only takes two to four months.

It takes two to four months to train a qualified detached individual.

Three to six batches can be trained in a year.

Three years...

His fingers twitched slightly.

not enough.

It's still not enough.

Even if we train all thirty people, it's still far from five hundred.

But at least we have a direction.
