Mr. Pantalone has no crazy plans today.

After her past meeting with the "Princess" of the Abyss, a blood relative of Kong, Pantarone gained some understanding of the power wielded by the Twins.

Although he had never mastered that power from beyond the distant starry sea, which did not belong to this continent.

Even so, he still had a way to restore Kong's sealed power, and the method to restore that sealed power was quite simple and straightforward—

Utilize the power of 'imaginary energy'.

This is precisely the method and conclusion that Pantalone came up with. As the energy generated by the 'imaginary number' itself, which originates from the root of civilization, the so-called 'imaginary number energy' is the most advanced form of energy within the worldview of this tree sea system.

Ultimately, no form of energy can surpass the form of this power. Under this unique cosmology, Pantalone, who wields the power of 'imaginary numbers', possesses almost unparalleled and comprehensive control.

Since this energy, which originates from the 'imaginary number' and is the highest level and form of energy within the structure of this tree-sea universe, means that this energy can decay and transform into any kind of power.

If used properly, 'imaginary energy' can completely restore the power that Gemini once possessed, which was sealed by the maintainer of the Heavenly Throne. It is even possible to master power of higher purity.

Logically speaking, matters concerning the realm of 'imaginary numbers' should theoretically be entrusted to the scholar who possesses the deepest understanding of 'imaginary numbers' on the continent of Teyvat.

It would be most appropriate for "Doctor" Dottore, the second-in-command of the Fools, to conduct the research.

However, this time Pantalone did not entrust the task to "The Doctor".

Because he had his own plans, and more importantly, he did not intend to rely on Dotole's research for everything.

This meant that while he had given Dotole considerable authority in the past, Pantalone did not entrust all of this to the "Doctor".

Even though Dotole and he seemed to have an excellent relationship within the Fatui, he was well aware that "The Doctor" had his own calculations, and he, in turn, had his own.

After all, some things are best known only to oneself.

What needs to be hidden, and what can be known?

This mutual scheming is something they keep to themselves, something they don't intend to tell anyone else.

Therefore, even Dottoré and Pantalone remained wary of each other. It would be truly foolish to completely trust others among the Fools.

Even with the "girls" he was close to, he never revealed the deep thoughts hidden in the depths of his heart.

Having traversed the deep darkness under Pantalone's guidance, and following closely behind Pantalone's figure, after crossing the infinitely quiet corridor, after traveling an unknown distance.

Beyond that long corridor at the far end, a glimmer of light shone brightly in the darkness.

The light that met their eyes was undoubtedly telling them one thing: beyond the end of the darkness lay the destination of their journey. After traversing that final stretch, the two finally arrived at their destination.

The moment he stepped into that empty space, the enormous strange object came into his view.

The imaginary engines were generating incredibly dense, lethal amounts of imaginary radiation. The endless imaginary radiation was almost overflowing, and the atmosphere in the air became incredibly viscous.

The extremely high-energy-level 'imaginary energy,' carrying a high degree of 'imaginary' radiation, travels along various lines and connects to the 'imaginary energy reactor,' which occupies almost 70% of the volume of this vast space at its very center.

The radiation from the high-energy reaction, which occasionally overflows, is even enough to distort the space itself, making it impossible for people to correctly perceive the true nature of this realm.

Everything about it was filled with a style and form that was completely different from the mainstream architectural style of Winterhold or even Teyvat.

Without a doubt, this is a scene completely different from the rest of the world.

The designs are filled with a sense of extraterrestrial civilization, and everything that is presented before our eyes.

Anyone who saw this would be shocked, and upon seeing the scene before him, Sora almost stopped breathing.

As he was stunned by what he saw, Pantalone, who was guiding the way on this trip, stopped and looked at the empty figure, smiling as he introduced it to him.

"Well then, welcome to my secret base... This will also be an important place for you to recover your strength, a secret research institute built by me."

"As for this massive 'imaginary number' structure before you, I think you should know what it really means, right?"

Seeing the shocked and horrified figure, Pantalone turned his gaze away from Kong and looked at the massive 'imaginary' structure, saying with a smile.

"How about it, isn't it spectacular?"

"If I hadn't received this from your blood relative, your sister, completing this would have been far from easy or simple for me."

"Fortunately, I have obtained the knowledge from your blood relatives and completed the knowledge of the conversion between 'imaginary energy' and other 'real energy'."

"The completion of this thing became so natural, and it was all thanks to the copying technology I obtained from Dottore; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to complete it so quickly."

Pantalone looked at the enormous 'imaginary number' structure before him with a smile and said this to Kong beside him.

Having witnessed everything he saw, Sora could only force himself to calm down.

It allows one to think calmly about everything, so as not to be overwhelmed by everything and lose one's calm judgment.

However, the turmoil that had been stirred up in his heart was not so easily quelled. More importantly, there was the colossal structure in front of him, a massive 'imaginary reactor' powered by an imaginary energy that was so enormous that it defied description.

If this immense 'imaginary energy' were to erupt, it would be enough to distort the laws of this world and cause unimaginable and terrifying collapse.

Even if this enormous 'imaginary energy' were to erupt, the current amount of 'imaginary energy' would not be enough to create a 'singularity' itself, but it is still a terrifying thing enough.

But now, in his eyes, this incredibly vast 'imaginary energy' is operating on its own, following a self-consistent set of logic and laws, seemingly conforming to some kind of theory.

And that is indeed the case.

What is before my eyes is the result of Pantalone obtaining the data he wanted from Udotole, copying it, and then using that theory.

This is achieved by compressing and controlling the extremely large amount of 'imaginary energy' to create a result that can distort the laws of reality.

In Daughtore's vision, this method is extremely uncontrollable. Only by controlling such a large amount of 'imaginary energy' can the distortion caused by 'imaginary energy' be kept within a controllable range.

Such a technical problem is an insurmountable obstacle for "Doctor", but Pantalone is different. Due to his special nature, he naturally has absolute control over "imaginary energy".
