Horizon looked at the glowing core in his hand. Mana particles swirled around inside it. It was just as he had thought; the cores weren't just a source of strength—no, they were much more than that.
They were a set of instructions for the creature, handed down to it. In essence, they were a code, a guideline for the creatures to follow. And for the instructions.
Horizon directed mana into the core, analyzing the mana patterns in the crystal. It was a lot like his spellcode, only much more complex while being simultaneously simple.
As Horizon deciphered the code, a single instruction could be boiled down: Protect. As to what it was protecting, Horizon was sure it was the dungeon core.
