I Can Program My Body?-Chapter 590: Grand Array Construction

A month later, the whole construction team for the great concealment array was fully formed.

The barrier’s blueprint was altered three times by Nash.

Looking at the complete blueprint that matched his vision, he couldn’t help but smile.

"The concealment array was just the first step..."

Besides being expandable and modular, more functions were added to the future upgrade of the great concealment array.

The first was its ability to amplify the signal and range of the runic system.

This meant that, once it was complete, even if they went to places farther from their territory, they would still be able to use the runic system!

Nash even had plans to make each signal and fluctuation transfer more efficient, minimizing the energy needed.

The second addition he was able to deduce for the array was shelter connectivity and amplification.

Not only could it amplify the range of each shelter’s abilities, but also the buffs and unique treasures they possessed.

This would be very useful in their future warfare.

After all, even at level 7 or 8, the range of a shelter was still limited.

Third was the control of the Sun Star Void energy.

Nash figured that instead of building a separate array or device to control the energy it emitted, why not include it in the grand array?

That way, they would not only save time but also make the control more precise.

Finally, there were other functions he had only tentative ideas about.

From accelerating the energy emission of the Sun Star Void, movement, adding other energy properties, filtering harmful substances, and more.

Unfortunately, Nash didn’t have enough time or capability to realize all of those visions yet. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Cadence also stepped in, telling him to slow down a little.

While it would cost more to add other functions later on, it was at least easier than doing everything at once.

Furthermore, the more properties Nash added, the more difficult it would be to build the array.

Unable to argue, Nash stopped pushing further.

Fortunately, as long as his core visions for the grand array were realized, Nash would be satisfied.

All the other functions and properties would be added later.

Especially the runic array range amplification.

During his training, Nash realized that without almost half of his elemental core, the time it took him to sublimate an element increased by a day.

Meaning if he had all the elemental cores in his body, he could sublimate an element in only six days.

Furthermore, Nash realized the amplification was not only about range but also quantity.

With the upgraded array, he wouldn’t need to train himself to the bone just to accommodate everyone.

Giving the final blueprint to Cadence, Nash left everything to them.

With their ability, he didn’t need to interfere with the building process.

He also had various scientists and leaders on the lookout in case anyone tried to sabotage him.

Meanwhile, on the edge of the Sun Star Void Area, Cadence looked at the final blueprint and couldn’t help but sigh.

"I didn’t think Nash would actually go through with this outrageous project..."

"What’s the matter? Is it bad?" Tiatha asked.

"How could it be bad? This is probably the most ambitious thing I’ve ever helped create in my life."

"Then why are you frowning?"

"It’s just too expensive."

"How expensive could it be?" Tiatha rolled her eyes.

She already knew how costly it was to build a grand array. How much worse could it really be?

"Well, if the normal array I deduced earlier cost 30 quadrillion worth of materials, this one costs almost 100 quadrillion."

"His— 100 quadrillion? How could Nash possibly have that much material?!"

Not just Tiatha, everyone who heard the price couldn’t help but gasp.

If it were only about money, they wouldn’t think much of it.

After all, their battleships, treasures, resources, and various other utilities also cost over 10 quadrillion chrono combined.

But this was 100 quadrillion worth of materials.

Rare materials that couldn’t just be bought with money, or were so scarce they were nearly impossible to source.

To spend such a staggering amount, they could only admire Nash’s boldness.

"That’s the price for all the additions, right?" Torr couldn’t help but ask.

"No, just the concealment function of the barrier array. To add the other functions, we’ll need even more materials..." Cadence said helplessly.

"This—"

What started as amazement quickly turned into a dull ache in their chests.

Even if it wasn’t their money, the weight of it still hit hard.

"Alright, enough dawdling. It’s time to build this array. We’ve delayed long enough."

---

A month later, as the construction of the great concealment barrier array was completed, Nash finally recalibrated the [Control Module System].

Able to autonomously handle most tasks, from absorbing and cycling elemental energy, Nash was finally free.

"I can finally work on my own things!"

Though not completely free, Nash could now release over half of his computational power to focus on other things.

Activating the [Control Module System], Nash began to confirm it was working as intended.

Feeling his body absorb elemental energy from different sources and cycle it through multiple nodes, Nash nodded in satisfaction.

"It’s a success!"

With the burden lifted, Nash thought about taking a short vacation.

From fighting to training, he hadn’t had a real rest since arriving at the Wild Void Area.

At most, he’d had a celebration lasting a day or two.

Thinking of what to do, he tried to contact Camilla and Elizabeth.

[The person you dialed was not available. Please try again later.]

"Are they in seclusion?"

Whether through the virtual world or the communication module, he couldn’t reach either of them.

Following the thread connecting them to the runic system, Nash confirmed they were deep in training.

"Huh... Looks like I’m on my own."

Not knowing what to do, he stepped outside to breathe in the fresh air.

Gazing at all the movement bustling across the Neon Star Cluster system, Nash couldn’t help but sigh.

It seemed he wasn’t the only one having a busy time. Almost everyone, whether a child, an adult, a warrior, a scientist, or a leader, was doing something.

Although they had decided to go into hiding, it didn’t mean they would halt their progress.

In fact, they all seemed to be rushing, hoping the time spent in hiding wouldn’t be wasted.

"Time to get back to work..."
