Chapter 797 - More Specialized Gravity

Kyle looked at his finished Law Well with pride.

The artificial Gravity Core was surrounded by several Formation Arrays, weakening and strengthening it in a cycle.

There were Barrier Formation Arrays around the entire thing, keeping the Gravity Metals from flying towards the natural Gravity Core.

Several pieces of Gravity Metal were turned into liquids before they were split by the different gravities. They flew around for a bit, became solid, and combined into one big piece again.

Just by looking at how they acted, Kyle was already gaining some insights into how they worked.

ʼLook at this bad boy! Better than any natural Law Well I have ever seen! And the best part is that this barely took five years to set up!ʼ

ʼAnyway, I should get to comprehending!ʼ he thought as he went to the first Gravity Metal with an excited smile.

He saw how it morphed and changed under his Formation Array and felt the Energy around it changing.

ʼSurprisingly, the specialized gravity is stronger when the material is in a liquid form, and itʼs even stronger when itʼs a gas. Itʼs almost like its rigidity interferes with its gravity. You would think it would be the opposite. After all, denser shit usually has more gravity since it has much more mass for the same volume.ʼ

ʼNot the case here.ʼ

ʼIs it because of the flow of Gravity Energy? Does Gravity Energy actually need to flow in order to create gravity?ʼ

Kyle looked at the Gravity Energy as it flowed through space.

While he had been creating his different Formation Arrays, he had already gained some insights into Gravity Energy. He hadnʼt even needed to consume some kind of Gravity Comprehension Fruit.

The reason why Kyle had been able to sense Gravity Energy without external help was the sheer density of it. Due to the two close Gravity Cores, a lot of Gravity Energy was flowing through this place. This made it much easier to sense Gravity Energy.

Sadly, the same thing didnʼt work with Space or Time Energy. While there could be areas with intense gravity, there were no areas with intense space or time. At least, there were no natural places like that as far as Kyle knew.

ʼWell, there actually might be,ʼ he thought. ʼI donʼt know a lot about the three fundamental forces, but itʼs completely possible that they are just the same thing if you go far enough. Like, heat and movement donʼt seem to be the same thing as well, but they are both just forms of energy.ʼ

ʼI mean, technically, everything is just Energy, but thatʼs a bit too abstract.ʼ

ʼAnyway, none of that really matters. I should just focus on comprehending the Law. I might even learn something about gravity in general.ʼ

As the first liquid material flew past Kyle, he held his hand into its path.

In an instant, Kyle felt his hand getting pulled towards it, and moments later, the material surrounded his arm.

Kyleʼs arm received severe burns as he felt the violent Energies damaging his body.

ʼCrazy,ʼ he thought, shaking his hand and noticing that the Gravity Metal refused to let go. ʼItʼs almost like itʼs treating me as another part of itself. It sticks to me like it sticks to itself.ʼ

Kyleʼs body recovered just as quickly as it got damaged, and the Gravity Metal cooled down, creating a layer of hard metal around Kyleʼs arm.

Next, he cut the supply of Biological Energy to his arm. His arm started to shrivel and shrink a bit.

CRK!

In an instant, the solid layer of Gravity Metal collapsed into a ball. Yet, it had done so while avoiding Kyleʼs shriveling arm. It was a bit like shoving oneʼs arm into a ball of malleable and flexible material, like rubber. As soon as one stopped shoving oneʼs arm into the ball, it returned to its spherical form, bouncing away.

ʼThis is fascinating!ʼ Kyle thought. ʼHow does that even work?ʼ

Kyle continued his experiments. The first thing he noticed was that not every Gravity Metal was acting the same way. Most of them had stronger forces of gravity while in a liquid form, but there were also some who actively rejected each other while in a liquid state.

After countless experiments, Kyle noticed a correlation between the composition of the metal and how its gravitational forces acted.

ʼInteresting,ʼ he thought as he saw several droplets of Gravity Metal flying in different directions. ʼGeneral gravity just attracts everything, but this specialized form of gravity also rejects things. Itʼs like minus gravity. Can normal gravity do that? Probably not on Earth, but I genuinely have no idea about the Supreme World.ʼ

Kyle still roughly remembered some details from his time on Earth. Funnily enough, even though he hadnʼt been on Earth for literally thousands of years, he knew quite a bit more about Earth than before due to his powerful mind. It was like remembering some kind of equation one hadnʼt been able to solve when one had been five years old. If one could still remember the equation as an adult, chances were that one could now solve it.

The same thing was going on with Kyle and Earthʼs physics. He had remembered bits and pieces, but that was enough for his mind to fill in the gaps.

Many experiments later, Kyle came up with an interesting theory.

ʼIs this specialized gravity some kind of elemental gravity? I mean, thereʼs Gravity Metal, Gravity Fire, Gravity Lightning, and so on. If so, I wonder if Elemental Gravity is a general thing that acts the same way with all Elements or if there are individual Elemental Gravities.ʼ

ʼIt could also be both. The way of infusing general gravity into an Element might be the same process, but leads to different results and behaviors.ʼ

Kyle noticed that he was getting sidetracked. He wanted to understand Gravity Metal, but he was focusing more on the gravity than the metal part.

ʼI need gravity anyway,ʼ he thought. ʼAs long as I make progress, it doesnʼt really matter. Focusing on the easy things now will make it easier to focus on the hard things later.ʼ

More time passed, and eventually, Kyle managed to get through all of the weaker Gravity Metals.

He created an overarching concept for them, and after testing it for a bit, he confirmed that it worked.

Kyle looked at his hand while creating a ball of mixed Gravity Metal.

ʼThis should be the first Fragment. For now, I should keep focusing on Gravity Metalʼs Composition. When I know everything about its composition, understanding its characteristics will be easier.ʼ

As he looked at the next level of materials, Kyle noticed that he was burning through more Energy Stones than before.

ʼThe cost is still fine. One Grade Five Energy Stone can keep this thing running for decades. Thanks to Dawnlight, I have more than enough money.ʼ
