Chapter 1599: Scanning and Creation
While Selena and the others were busy refining the power, Nathan used this opportunity to teach Iris another technique.
"Iris."
"Yes, Master?" Iris tilted her head.
Nathan raised one finger. "What do you know about your power?"
"My power?" Iris thought for a moment. "What do you mean by power? Do you mean my gun, my barrier, or something else?"
"Of course, I’m talking about your talent."
"My talent..." Iris looked down, recalling everything about her. "I am quite satisfied with my talent. However, there is no one who will say that they are too talented, especially not when their world is in danger."
"So, what can you tell me about your talent?"
Iris arranged the words carefully in her mind. "I believe my talent lies in my barrier and my gun. First of all, I am able to release a barrier that is better than my peers. It may be because of my family’s power, but it doesn’t change the fact that I’m confident in my talent.
"As for the gun, I have a very high affinity for it. I like the way I fight as well, so I don’t think I will change my fighting style. I will just keep shooting my enemies like there’s no tomorrow."
Nathan nodded in understanding. It was a good assessment from Iris, but Nathan actually said, "What if I tell you that you haven’t been able to pinpoint your exact talent yet?"
"Mhmm?" Iris was taken aback. "What do you mean, Master? I don’t know my talent?"
"Yes." Nathan waved his hand, asking her to follow him. They arrived at the ruined wall. "Look at this wall?"
The top of the wall had crumbled, leaving only a two-meter-high wall from the original fifteen meters. The rest of the stones had either been swept away or piled up around the wall.
"Yes." Iris nodded. She didn’t understand why Nathan asked her to look at the wall. "Don’t tell me. I have made a mistake and you want me to reflect by facing the wall?"
Iris was prepared for a punishment, but she didn’t know where she was wrong.
"Your imagination is running wild. But that’s a good thing too." Nathan chuckled and patted her head. "But no, I’m not going to punish you or anything. You can be clueless or make a simple mistake with me, and I’m not going to punish you. Just don’t make those mistakes when you are dealing with other people.
"After all, what you do is also a reflection of my image. If you don’t want your master to be looked down upon by other people, I hope you can act accordingly.
"However, enough with that stiff topic. What I want is for you to release your energy to envelop this wall and all the remains. Can you do that?"
"Yes." Iris thought it was an easy task. She closed her eyes and extended her ena, gradually enveloping the wall and the rubble.
At her level, she could do it in two seconds, but she did it carefully because Nathan requested it.
As long as she didn’t know what his aim was, she had to proceed carefully and do everything perfectly.
Nathan continued, "Now that you have enveloped the wall, I want you to close your eyes and feel it with your energy. I want you to feel the shape of the stones used to build the wall, the shape of the rubble, their sizes, and even their placement. Can you do it?"
"Yes."
"Then, I want you to count the stones. How many bricks are left on the stone wall?"
"..." Iris couldn’t answer right away. She carefully felt them and counted them one by one. "I believe there are about 480 big bricks and 1,203 smaller bricks within this wall."
"Good. Now, focus your attention on the rubble around this wall. I want you to count the pieces that are bigger than your fist."
Iris furrowed her eyebrows and answered, "1,964 pieces."
"Very good. Now, take a few steps back." Nathan helped her to move while Iris was still focusing her energy on the wall. Once they had gained enough distance, Nathan continued, "Now, your next task is to create a barrier that looks like a brick. You can, right?"
"Of course." Iris created one brick in front of her. It was made of a barrier, so it was almost transparent.
"I want you to recreate the wall by using your barrier. I want it to be the exact same, meaning all the bricks are accounted for."
Iris started to feel the pressure this time. The amount of bricks alone was a bit too much for her to process.
However, she still did it. The wall was gradually forming from the bottom. The size and shape of the barriers were similar to the bricks, making it a perfect copy of the wall.
This time, the process took over ten minutes.
"Good. Now, let’s put your skills to the test by adding the rubble."
Iris breathed heavily, starting to have a hard time creating all the details.
She began to sweat, but she didn’t back down from the challenge.
Eventually, Iris managed to build a perfect replica.
"Haa... Haa... I did it!" She opened her eyes to check if they were the same or not.
"Congrats." Nathan smiled and took out a sword. "Let’s do it with this one. Create a replica of this sword with your barrier."
It was a simple sword, so Iris easily created it. So, Nathan took out a spear this time. The spear was much more complex because it had patterns on its body. "Let’s go with this spear. Don’t forget all the details."
There was a dragon coiling around the spear, so Iris was extra careful in creating the decoration.
Still, it wasn’t as hard as creating the wall.
"Good. Now, copy the spear. I want you to create 30 of that exact spear with your barriers."
"What?" Iris panicked. One was already hard enough, but if he asked for thirty, it would be harder than the wall.
Nathan just smiled without explaining further.
Since Iris trusted Nathan, she just followed whatever Nathan wanted.
