Its contours were exactly as he had drawn them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He jabbed at it with the Twilight War Spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The point pierced straight through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What kind of durability does this thing have after solidification?\" he muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Specific data unknown. However, as a defensive armament, it can interface with the mech’s protection system, channeling energy for reinforced shielding.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then, solidify it,\" Ethan said with satisfaction. With both spear and shield, he finally had offense and defense in balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[New Memory Metal Solidification Program initiated.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shatterstar’s mechanical voice left no room for hesitation. Sparks crackled from Ethan’s left gauntlet, writhing like electric snakes that coiled across the vast surface of the shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Solidification requires current synchronization at fixed frequency. This program is irreversible. Confirm execution?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Proceed.\" Ethan had made his choice—no reason to hesitate now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bzzzz...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current erupted in blinding light, coating the shield in a radiant sheath. Within seconds the glow sank into the metal itself until nothing remained on the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Solidification complete.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The process had taken less than a minute. Ethan flexed his arm, feeling the difference immediately; the shield had real weight now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quick glance at the optical display confirmed it:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right hand: 3.4%\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Left hand: 4.2%\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised a brow. The shield weighed even more than the Twilight War Spear. Testing it again, he struck with the spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact sent a spray of sparks flying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad. Not bad at all,\" Ethan murmured. Even without full strength behind the strike, the shield had absorbed force that would have surpassed his usual spear attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Satisfied, he lifted the mech into the air, though he kept low rather than ascending. Shatterstar now bore the image of a war god—shield in one hand, spear in the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He angled the spear downward. Crunch. The Twilight War Spear plunged into the ice, and his speed surged forward, carving a deep trench as he flew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The groove stretched perfectly straight across the frozen expanse. One minute. Two minutes. Three minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, without warning, the trench simply vanished. What remained was only the short starting segment. The rest had disappeared as though erased by some unseen hand, leaving a smooth unbroken sheet of ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan frowned. That was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragging the spear again, he drew another line, this time while walking. At the spot where the first line had broken, he stepped across.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell...\" His voice caught. \"This is insane.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There should have been two clear, parallel lines trailing behind him. Instead, both were gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t tell me this is some kind of ghost wall?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tested it again, walking the same path over and over. On the eighteenth crossing, the long trench suddenly reappeared—exactly as he had first carved it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eighteen?\" he whispered, startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tested again. Each time, after eighteen crossings, the lines returned. Not just one, but both parallel marks, appearing like ghostly etchings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes narrowed. Facing due north, he turned east, aligning himself with the point where the phenomenon had triggered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flying in that direction, he carved another line with the spear. This time, after two minutes, the trench vanished once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As I thought. Another critical point,\" Ethan muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He repeated the crossing test. As before, the vanished trench resurfaced on the eighteenth attempt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the realization struck him. \"This isn’t random. It’s a damn board... like those Japanese Go board.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Piece by piece, he pieced the mystery together. The vast ice plain was divided into a grid: nineteen lines intersecting vertically and horizontally, forming eighteen squares in each direction. A total of 324 enormous sectors, each bounded by invisible barriers. Crossing one of those boundaries shifted the traveler into a different pocket of space, and the reappearance of his carved lines depended on passing those intersections the right number of times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It explained everything. The strangers who had suddenly appeared before them earlier must have crossed into a new square, directly materializing in front of him. Perhaps they had fled from something within their sector—most likely the so-called demon that had annihilated the Forgotten City. Or maybe they had left a hidden camp and, by crossing one of these critical points, vanished from his pursuit into another square entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan’s stomach tightened. \"Three hundred and twenty-four squares. How the hell am I supposed to find them in that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even reuniting with Blackie and the others would be difficult in this labyrinth. Each square was vast, each containing who knew what dangers, and he couldn’t possibly scout them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whichever bastard drew this game... they weren’t playing small,\" he growled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky split open. A bolt of purplish-black lightning, thick as a barrel, came crashing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It smashed against Shatterstar’s head, jolting the mech off-balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it! Can’t even curse in this place!\" Ethan spat. His frustration echoed in the freezing wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Extreme North Ice Fields truly lived up to their reputation as the Sea of Death’s forbidden zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait...\" Ethan muttered. \"Didn’t Uncle Jed explore this place once? Could it be he learned the patterns of this... this board?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the only explanation that fit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Ethan was trapped in the middle of a monstrous game. No way forward, no way back. Just a single piece caught on the board.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Blackie, Julian, and Micah continued northward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deeper they ventured, the sharper the cold gnawed at them. The wind bit like knives, freezing the air in their lungs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, where did he go?\" Micah asked, shivering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blackie kept silent, his jaw tight. Fire-elemental energy blazed faintly at his back, forming a protective barrier that sheltered the other two. It was the only thing holding off the biting frost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in this desolate cold, with no fire energy to draw from, every second drained his strength. He knew he couldn’t maintain the barrier for much longer.\u003C\u002Fp>",1015,"2026-06-02T11:41:34.808Z",1,"novelbin.me","a12ac9819b01a71911582942ce6185771300712a419275402d313a8952791ff9","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-510","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-508",946,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flevel-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-cover.jpg"]
