Date- 13 April 2321
Time- 09:45
Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital, Dual Gate dungeon
Seeing a humanoid in black approach the array formation covering the dual gate dungeon vicinity, thanks to her excellent sight Field Marshal immediately noticed the humanoid in the black was not a card apprentice but a corpse doppelganger.
The Field Marshal immediately reacted by firing a concentrated soul energy beam at it at an insane speed in hopes to put a permanent end to the Corpse doppelganger"s advance.
In the face of the incoming soul energy beam aimed at it the corpse doppelganger continued in its advance without fear or hesitation and when it was time it dodged the soul energy beam by a hair"s breadth.

Seeing the corpse doppelganger evade her attack the Field Marshal frowned as her attack might have seemed simple but it was so fast that even seasoned demiG.o.ds would have trouble dodging it let alone a SSS-rank Corpse Doppelganger.
Field Marshal recalled seeing a disturbance in the surrounding of the Corpse Doppelganger just as it dodged her soul energy beam. With this Field Marshal concluded that the Corpse Doppelganger did not dodge her attack purely based on its physical prowess but had activated an unknown skill that helped it dodge the soul energy beam by a hair"s breadth.
Just as the Corpse Doppelganger was about to reach the array formation covering the dual gate dungeon, the soul energy beam which it had just dodged suddenly bent itself at a 180-degree angle in the air and continued to follow the Corpse Doppelganger.
As if the Corpse Doppelganger had eyes at the back of its head it once again dodged the soup energy beam aimed at its back by a hair"s breadth.
This time around when Corpse Doppelganger evade her attack the Field Marshal was prepared, she had her sight focused on the Corpse Doppelganger, and this time she not only noticed the minute disturbance in the Corpse Doppelganger"s surroundings as it dodged her attack but also traced back the source of the minute disturbance to the mouth of the corpse Doppelganger.
Back in the secret base of the Central government"s force on the outskirts of the Southern Capital, Arnas wiped the sweat off her forehead and sighed in relief.
Arnas had not expected the soul energy beam of the Field Marshal to lock on and follow the Corpse Doppelganger without losing its speed and power in the slightest. Had she not activated her ability to try and destroy the array formation, she would not have noticed the soul energy beam doubling back at the Corpse Doppelganger.
When the Corpse Doppelganger reached the array formation Arnas remotely activated her ability to effect vibrations of nature"s soul pathways and destroy the array formation. ReadNovelFull.com
However, before she could do that the noise produced by her skill detected the soul energy beam aimed at the back of the Corpse Doppelganger, In the nick of the moment Arnas made a split-second decision to use her skill to dodge the attack and not destroy array formation.
Because if the Field Marshal"s Soul energy beam hits the Corpse Doppelganger then it will destroy amidst destroying the array formation. Meaning had Arnas chosen to ignore the attack and focus on destroying the array formation not only would she have lost an SSS-rank corpse puppet used to create the Corpse Doppelganger but also not succeed in destroying the array formation covering the dual gate dungeon vicinity.
So, Arnas"s decision to dodge Field Marshal"s attack was what still kept her in the game, otherwise, her mission to destroy the dual gate dungeon would have failed without even completing the first step.
These kinds of split-second decisions cannot be expected from a Corpse Doppelganger even if it was an SSS-rank creation, this was why Arnas chose to state at the secret base to monitor and control her Corpse Doppelganger instead of being in the field along with her team members even if her actions negatively affected the morale of her team.
This could not be helped, because the ability displayed by Arnas"s Corpse Doppelganger required performing lengthy and hectic calculations within fractions of seconds in real-time.
To do these calculations Arnas needed a quiet area without any disturbance, which one cannot find in the field so she had no choice but to be in the base even though it was the leader"s duty to lead by example.
In Southern Capital, the boy mistook Arnas"s Corpse Doppelganger for a real Card apprentice as he had never seen a Corpse Doppelganger before. Mistaking the Corpse Doppelganger for the original was not the only mistake the boy made at that time.
The other mistake was when the boy concluded that Arnas was using her ability as a sonar radar to dodge the attacks aimed at her by keeping track of the progress of all the attacks headed her way but he was only half right about this.
Yes, Arnas was using her ability similar to a sonar but it was not to keep track of the movement and path of the attacks in real-time but to use the difference in the vibration of the soul energy in the attack and nature surrounding her to propel herself out of the path of the attack. This was why Arnas"s Corpse Doppelganger was dodging all the attacks aimed at it by hair"s breadth at the last possible moment.
Arnas"s Corpse Doppelganger only used its ability to dodge the thousands of energy projectiles aimed at it in a short time. At such short notice, the data collected by the boy was incomplete.
Hence it was not a surprise that the boy mistook how Arnas was making use of her ability to dodge the attacks aimed at her. However, he was correct about Arnas using noise to manipulate the vibrations of nature"s soul pathways.
This not only allowed her to dodge the incoming attack by making use of force produced by the difference in the magnitude of two vibrational forces but also allowed her to physically become one with the world by manipulating the vibrations of the soul pathways of her physical body.
