Some time had passed, and after Leo Ray and Jasper Richardson had finished the sumptuous dinner brought by Warren Dexter right where they were.
The colorful light curtain enveloping the Guardian Defense Mechanism started to dim and lose its luster, gradually turning into specks of energy particles scattering with the wind.
A significantly larger silhouette of a gigantic building now stood before Leo Ray.
[Congratulations, your Guardian Defense Mechanism has been upgraded to Lv: 9!]
Listening to the familiar prompting voice, Leo Ray, under Jasper Richardson's escort, eagerly approached the building.
Walking around the upgraded Guardian Defense Mechanism, Leo Ray joyfully noticed.
The originally octagonal large structure had been expanded to a decagon, each side still featuring a tightly sealed giant gate.
At first glance, not only had the building's volume visibly increased, but the entire structure had turned into indestructible all-metal construction.
