I Pioneered Scientific Magic-Chapter 377: Harof: I doubt their legends are quite like ours!
Chapter 377: Harof: I doubt their legends are quite like ours!
According to the assessment, the designated target faces severe life-threatening danger. Temporary suspension of user protection is in effect. Estimated survival time without medical aid in the event of unescalated combat: 7 minutes and 26 seconds!
"Better to die late than early. Well, that's quite clever," Lynn muttered to himself.
"At present, 53 users linked to the magical network have not fully surpassed the current mental level of designated users."
The repeated alert from the intellect device caused Lynn to pause involuntarily. After summoning data regarding Harof from 'users' analysis, Lynn abruptly discovered that the mental strength of this legendary speaker was on the same level as the Grand Wizard Anthony from the Sixth Circle—though significantly more potent!
However, it was a far greater strength in terms of computational power compared to Anthony! This revelation surprised Lynn considerably. It took him a while to realize that these rankings were merely human-made assessments!
From the First Circle to the Seventh Circle, from formal wizards to legendary ones, these hierarchical divisions and methods of promotion were all painstakingly discovered by wizards step by step.
If they pleased, they could even create further subdivisions within each major tier, such as distinguishing between novice First Circle wizards and advanced First Circle wizards, creating numerous levels...
However, previously, every significant level had distinct markers. For instance, formal wizards could mimic elemental magic, while Grand Wizards could manipulate metal elements or construct domains, and so on.
Could it be that the mental level of a Grand Wizard had already reached its limit, with any further progress being quantitative rather than qualitative?
Lynn pondered silently, quickly dismissing this conjecture as the pseudo-god, Aila, was a perfect counterexample. Their strength was vastly superior, completely different from the rest, not belonging to the same tier at all.
Reflecting on this, Lynn inwardly posed another question.
"071, based on the previous battle, can you analyze the status of Edweil and that pseudo-god?"
"Target Edweil, initial life signs weak. Post-revival, no discernible life signs. Target Aila, unknown entity, potent energy being, extremely dangerous."
"So, Edweil might not be human, and Aila is definitely not human?" Lynn exclaimed in surprise. Soon, he recalled Edweil's incredible feats during the battle, such as surviving being severed by lasers or evading perception effortlessly.
"Analysis indicates that both their life and mental levels surpass the designated targets..."
This time, Lynn wasn't surprised but shocked by the intellect device's analysis, so much so that he began to doubt whether it had malfunctioned due to prolonged lack of maintenance.
Aila's superiority was understandable, but to think Edweil's mental level surpassed theirs? That seemed unlikely. Despite Edweil's formidable abilities, when he utilized the magical network's computational power, Lynn could barely handle it. He also struggled against the properties of chlorine trifluoride, not necessarily appearing more powerful than legendary speakers like Harof.
Furrowing his brow, Lynn delved into deep contemplation.
Though both Harof and Edweil were referred to as legends, possessing capabilities surpassing Grand Wizard levels, their states seemed notably different.
"Potent energy being..." Lynn murmured to himself. This was the designation the intellect device used for Aila, perhaps suggesting that they had discarded their physical form and existed solely as energy.
After Pearce's reminder, during the preceding battle, Lynn had noticed that all of Edweil's spells, surpassing even the Archbishops, were achieved by utilizing "Divine Speech" and expanding the divine realm.
Clearly, this wasn't entirely Edweil's inherent power...
Numerous doubts flashed through Lynn's mind one after another. However, pertinent information was scarce. As a mere Fourth Circle Grand Wizard, he was still a considerable distance from being a legend, unable to derive much useful insight.
Perhaps during the upcoming discussion, he could glean some information from a few legendary speakers and see if they were privy to any insider knowledge...
Lynn retrieved two pre-made "Rings of Secrets," carefully packaged them, and then summoned Elok, instructing him to personally deliver these items to two of the speakers.
After receiving the rings, Elok inquired with concern, "Headmaster, how are your injuries? According to Master Sheens, they should start improving in the next couple of days."
"It's getting better, but full recovery will still take another four or five days," Lynn replied with a thoughtful glint in his eyes. It would be best to stagger his recovery time with the legendary conference's commencement.
...
In the evening, within a courtyard in the royal palace, the gathered speakers had received the message from the rings—an assembly scheduled for midnight tonight!
Although the assembly could occur in a special space projected by the mental magic contained within the "Rings of Secrets," theoretically possible from anywhere, Harof had specifically summoned them here. He wanted to personally advise Aurora and Victorio that if they encountered any incomprehensible theories or doctrines during the discussion, they should avoid displaying obvious confusion and instead return to discuss later. Above all, they must not compromise the dignity of wizardry!
"Is that Society of Mystical Arts really as amazing as you say?" Victorio asked, maintaining a poker face. They were all legendary wizards, and despite specializing in different fields, there should be no knowledge gap like this...
Harof didn't delve into a lengthy explanation. He playfully remarked, "I believe you've already researched those Rings of Secrets, haven't you? How's it going? Any luck decrypting them?"
Victorio awkwardly chuckled. As a legendary alchemist, he was immensely intrigued by the alchemical creation used among the members of the "Society of Mystical Arts" for communication!
The "Ring of Secrets" itself was rather ordinary, with nothing particularly special. He could replicate its structure at a glance. However, when attempting to decipher the magical frequency used for communication, trying to locate the sender through the received messages, he encountered a significant obstacle.
The communication's magical frequency was changing almost every second, and despite spending an entire afternoon, he couldn't discern any patterns, let alone crack it!
Just from this perspective, the "Society of Mystical Arts" indeed had some tricks up their sleeve...
Although Victorio maintained his dignity without explicitly stating it, his facial expression betrayed his frustration. Harof naturally sensed his setback, having experienced similar futile attempts himself.
After a pause, Harof spoke with a serious tone. "Additionally, I suspect their method of reaching legend status might differ from ours!"
