Chapter 1058 Argus

Making their way back to the command centre, Shiro sat down and brought up several screens.

"Let's see, with the world being many times bigger than it was before, I'll probably need more than ten thousand satellites orbiting this world for it to get me proper coverage of this whole world. It'll give me a good view of every continent, country and weird location that might be viewable from space. Plus, I can probably look for where that dragon went after destroying the gate to the beyond." Shiro muttered.

"True, finding stuff in this world would also be so much easier. Since the event locations will increase in mana density, just a quick scan should tell you where the next event is so that you can prepare beforehand." Nan Tian agreed.

"Mn, most importantly, I can find new gates to the beyond as well as a Queen's main city if they're not careful with the defences they put down." Shiro smiled as she tapped her fingers against the table.

"Designing the satellites shouldn't be too hard. I've already got a few blueprints. In terms of energy usage… Hmm… Would the sun be enough?" Shiro tapped her finger because she didn't want to manually fuel all the satellites if she could avoid it. After all, if her mana is constantly being drained by the satellites amongst the other things that require her mana, it would be a little annoying.

'And since I'm going to send satellites up into space, I should have them be able to transform into orbital cannons if possible. What else…. Ah right the moon. After the system integrated itself with the world, there were no longer any more means to get into space until I made my rocket. If I transform the moon into something that can be of use to me, it'll be good. Plus, if I make a teleport node between the two, I should be able to make a relaxing mini city for everyone.' Shiro thought with a small smile.

"Say Nan Tian." Shiro called out.

"Mn? What is it?"

"What do you think about colonising the moon? Make it a secondary city for me. Smack an anchor point in the centre and I might even use it to house a weapon." Shiro asked as she snapped her fingers and zoomed in on a hologram of the moon.

Pinching the surface of the hologram, buildings started to appear as a transparent dome sealed everything off.

"Plus, it'll be a pretty good place for a holiday no? Take everyone there and enjoy the look of the world from space." Shiro smiled.

Thinking about it, Nan Tian nodded his head.

"Sure. Quite a few people are infatuated with space here after all. If you want, you can probably hire those people to do some research into blueprints that can take you further into space if you want." Nan Tian suggested.

"Perhaps. Though… that might have to wait considering there were monsters in space back in Aria. I remember launching some satellites and had to defend them quite often. But with how difficult this world is, there's no doubt that tier 6's or 7's might be swimming around in that vacuum right now. I don't want to risk it more than I already have." Shiro shrugged. They shouldn't get too greedy just yet.

"Fair enough. Let's just stick with surrounding the world with satellites as well as making a city on the moon."

Nodding her head, Shiro started to adjust some designs of the satellites so that it suited the power level of this world.

From more weapons to reinforced barriers powered by runes, Shiro wondered how much mana it'll take her to make sure everything is up and running. In terms of the energy, Shiro wondered if keeping it in low powered mode would work with just the energy from the sun. Either that or create a power bank in the rift connected to everything. And whenever she has free time, she'll pump all of her mana in it for a few hours and call it a day. After all, with her regeneration, all of her mana will return in just a few minutes. Doing this every day would give them enough mana to power the entire thing for a while.

She did wonder if she needed a space station at all but considering that they can monitor everything pretty easily from the command centre, it shouldn't be too hard. But just to make things easier, she'll add a different command centre for space related stuff.

"I'll take care of the recruitment as well as setting up space for research. You can focus on the fun stuff." Nan Tian glanced back with a smile since he knew that Shiro found this kind of work boring.

Hearing this, Shiro's eyes flickered with joy.

"Thanks." She grinned. It wasn't like she was thinking of dumping everything to Nan Tian already.

With the two of them doing work at the same time, it reduced the time needed to get everything ready to just two hours.

With the satellite blueprints ready, Shiro looked down at her hands for a moment before taking a deep breath.

Sighing out, she flexed her fingers and created two helmets so that they didn't suffocate.

"I still have a portal node in the room that I made last time. If we teleport through there, we won't need to worry about breaking past the barriers again." Shiro said as her voice was a little quiet.

"Are you sure?" Nan Tian asked as Shiro nodded.

"I need to face it eventually so why not do it now. Plus, I should also clean the place up a little."

Nodding his head, Nan Tian watched as Shiro created a portal before holding onto his sleeve.

Taking a step through, the two of them were now floating through the wreckage of the room. Parts were scattered about and chunks were missing.

Feeling her body tense up for a moment, Shiro bit her lip and aimed her palm towards everything.

Retrieving all of the nanobots that were used here, she closed her eyes.

'I'll come get you soon.'

Opening her eyes once more, her gaze was sharp.

Letting go of Nan Tian's sleeve, she floated forward as her mana flared.

A golden energy rippled from her body.

Clasping two hands together, Shiro created a tier 8 magic circle between her palms with the use of the god runes.

Suddenly, thousands upon thousands of tier 6 magic circles appeared it the area around them. From the ground, this would look just like a simple ray of light from the sheer density of the magic circles.

Looking at this happening, Nan Tian smiled lightly as it was simply beautiful. With her white hair fluttering behind her from the mana that was being emitted by the tier 8 magic circle, lightning started to flicker as nanobots appeared in all of the magic circles.

One by one, the satellites formed.

Their weapons were exposed then concealed.

Since it was a satellite system that was supposed to give her sight around the whole world, Shiro decided to name it after a being that very much hated Zeus. After all, he was dragged into the mess of his love affairs and killed in his sleep.

As the final module was installed, a single word was painted on the chassis.

[Argus]

Named after the all seeing giant, Argus Panoptes, the Argus Satellite network was now ready for deployment.

Just as she finished this, a notification appeared on her system.

[Argus Panoptes raises a toast to Shiro. He expresses great joy in having such a spy network named after him and offers you his blessings.]

One by one, a golden crest lit up next to the word Argus on each of the satellites. The crest was that of an eye with its pupil replaced by the world.

[Blessing of Panoptes]

When searching for something specific, barriers are less likely to obscure your view and you can get its precise location.

Reading this, Shiro smiled and snapped her fingers.

Activating their thrusters, the satellites started to spread themselves out so that they can cover the whole world.

With the satellite system done, Shiro glanced down at the charred piece of land that was now covered by a lightning store. A vortex that sucked away all the mana available. What confused her yet also made her curious was that it ignored those that were tier 3 and below. Logically, it would kill them as well since it absorbed all mana but that was not the case.

However, she decided to set this aside for now since she had no more business with this place.

Her next goal was to set up a city on the moon.

Leaning against the sofa was a handsome man that had both his eyes closed. Long black hair and wore a rather smart suit.

"Well, isn't this quite the coincidence? Just as you are trying to persuade me to join her side and apologise about your past transgressions, the girl in question had named a rather advanced network after me." The man smiled as the one who sat opposite him raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"She did?"

"Indeed. Named it the Argus Satellite Network. I'm a fan of mortal work but this by far is my favourite. Almost enough for me to forgive you for killing me in my sleep, Hermes." He smirked as one of his eyes opened to reveal a black void that seemed to reflect the entire world.
