542 That Face

There was a third base formation in the formation plate. Meaning, there was one more thing the formation did that hadn't been apparent to anyone yet.

What was it? Was it an illusory formation? Maybe disorienting? It didn't look like the old man was very worried about sound when he started attacking, so it was likely that wasn't it.

Alex looked at the formation diagram and understood that he had never seen that formation before. So there really was nothing in his mind to immediately give him an answer. 

The only way to tell what it did was to separate the 3 Base formations in the diagram as well as the extra strokes that connected them. 

This was gonna take some time. He didn't know if he had any.

"Please hold on for a little longer," he softly begged his masters and immediately created a fire in mid-air. The fire immediately changed shape as it twisted and elongated to make a circle.
