Chapter 629: 532 is ten thousand, ten thousand is one, it is everywhere, now I am everywhere too!
What was still missing?
Lynn pondered in meditation but came up with nothing.
According to Rafael and the others’ detection of elements on the other side of the Space-Time Gate, the foreign realm was also composed of basic elements like hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon, only they had been transformed by magic power.
Lynn even guessed that this realm had been devoid of magic power before being captured, after which Era transformed it into a domain of the divine, hence it became saturated with magic power.
[User 33 requests to borrow computing power from the Magic Network, do you agree?]
A sudden reminder from the AI in his mind interrupted Lynn’s thoughts.
User 33 was naturally Anthony.
As one of the great wizards who had personally developed the kingdom’s underlings and supplemented the Secret Magic Society’s background, he had joined the Magic Network quite early.
The reason for him to access the Magic Network soon came to Lynn, it was for the entirely legendary promotion ceremony!
No wonder, during his inquiry earlier, both Harrov and Aurora were not inside the royal capital; had it not been for the AI’s reminder, Lynn almost forgot about this ceremony.
He had even received a special notification from the council before.
Lynn immediately agreed to Anthony’s request to utilize computing power, then disconnected from the Magic Network and withdrew the domain covering the entire royal capital.
Once Anthony and the others passed the legendary promotion ceremony, they would become chairmen on par with himself, and naturally, he needed to congratulate them, otherwise, it would seem too arrogant for him, the star of magic.
The vast boost in computing power was instantaneously withdrawn, feeling like a plunge from bliss to the depths of despair. Even Lynn felt a sense of regret and discomfort, but he forced himself to disengage from the external power that had made him formidable. His glance then flicked to a black crow on the table.
After thinking about it, he decided not to bring it along.
The nuclear fusion furnace and legendary promotion were the council’s secrets and with the crow’s allegiance uncertain, maintaining confidentiality was paramount.
However, Lynn didn’t plan on leaving the crow alone in the room, as he could not be sure if the creature had any divine arts that would enable it to break free.
“Mutuo!” Lynn called out. A blue beastly figure immediately rushed over from the distance.
It was Mutuo, who was in charge of guarding the gates within the manor.
Due to the council’s recent intensive mining of uranium ore to increase nuclear reserves, Mutuo’s size had grown significantly in a few months; its height had ballooned from two meters to about three, and its energy level had also skyrocketed, evidently from being well-fed every day.
To enhance its combat ability, Lynn had put a great effort into engraving the spell of “Doomsday – Atomic Breath” into Mutuo’s mind. Coupled with Mutuo’s ability to absorb and retaliate with energy, it already counted as a genuine legendary force.
“You’ll keep it company from now on.”
Lynn patted Mutuo’s head; its surface, appearing like fur, was plasma ripples at a temperature of over a thousand degrees, something only Lynn, also being an Energy Body, could handle.
Mutuo, upon entering, had already noticed the crow caged up, showing a menacing look. In recent months, the bipedal creature that had once so attentively cared for him suddenly became indifferent, calling for him only a handful of times. Now, he finally found the reason.
Mutuo believed it was this inexplicably appeared crow that had stolen the position that belonged to him. Its front paws immediately clamped onto the table, its beastly pupils filled with malice.
“Get it away now,” the black crow screamed loudly, flapping its wings trying to fend off the approaching Mutuo, but to no avail.
Seeing that the crow and the beast were getting along fairly well, Lynn felt reassured; with the cage in between, they couldn’t really fight.
Of course, if the crow managed to cross the force field and electromagnetic protection he had set up and fly out, that would be a different story.
After instructing Mutuo to look after the house, Lynn left the manor and transformed into a streak of light heading towards Fire Oil City.
Although the council had also constructed a fusion furnace inside a magic tower outside the royal city these recent days, the array for the legendary promotion had yet to be fully established, so this promotion ceremony was still set in Fire Oil City.
Rushing along the way, consecutive alert tones resurfaced in Lynn’s mind – again, requests to borrow computing power, which Lynn also approved one by one.
It seemed Anthony’s promotion had already succeeded!
A smile broadened on Lynn’s lips as he checked Anthony’s status through a Magic Network link, and indeed, his spiritual power rating had changed from six to seven.
With the support of computing power provided by the Magic Network, the risk of the legendary promotion ceremony was considerably reduced. After all, the real difficulty of the ceremony was in how to build an energy and magic body while withstanding the wash of tremendous energy after the destruction of the physical body.
If over twenty sixth-circle grand wizards within the council could smoothly complete their promotions, it would lead to an explosive increase in the council’s high-end power!
[User 1749 has disconnected from the Magic Network…]
While Lynn was lost in thought, a starkly different system tone echoed in his mind, causing his brow to furrow instantly, and a sense of foreboding arose in his heart. Just ten minutes later,
[User 2596 has disconnected from the Magic Network…]
Lynn looked towards the gradually emerging cityscape of Fire Oil City, the mood growing heavier, as these so-called users 1749 and 2596 were the two grand wizards who had earlier requested computing power. Their sudden disconnection from the Magic Network probably signaled a very bad outcome.
