Chapter 764: 764

In the Month of Passion (June), Allyn was brimming with the fragrance from the new, unusual flowers .

“Stanis and I didn’t find the Silver-Eyed Count in the Observer’s Castle or the Night Highland . It’s said that he is still out . The other princes cannot reach out to the Silver Moon . Therefore, the plan to deal with Maltimus has to be put on hold . ”

In the conference room of the Highest Council, the Lord of Storm reported his visit to the Dark Mountain Range unhappily .

As for the grand arcanist who was reckless, it was quite annoying to be disrupted from the critical moments in the middle of the research . Also, after he went to the Dark Mountain Range for the big picture only to find that the trip was futile, he was certainly not too happy about it .

Douglas nodded and said peacefully, “Perhaps, his outing itself suggests a certain subtle attitude . It is at least better than a direct no . In the meantime, Harex, whose body has been occupied by the Lord of Hell, has devoted most of his attention to dealing with the forces at the south end of the ocean . They are supported by the South Church . It means that his primary enemy is still Viken . ”

Although their purpose was not achieved, now that Douglas and the other grand arcanists were calm and not panicked, the members of the Highest Council did not feel too alarmed . Lucien, however, secretly sighed . What mattered most was still their strength, not their allies . Those who were not too strong themselves and who dreamed about dragging a bunch of allies to work with them would only find them ending up on somebody else’s dinner table .

“According to the intelligence, Melmax, the Holy Avenger, has already gone to the south of the Boundless Ocean, in case the forces that belong to the Church are completely destroyed . However, a demigod is still too strong for him to resist . I estimate that most of the territory will have to be abandoned . Only the divine power defense at the core can resist it,” Oliver, who was in charge of the Affair Committee, said .

A pile of papers on the field theory was placed before Brook . They were just retrieved from the Arcana Review Board and belonged to the creative ones . Therefore, he had exchanged them to see if he could learn anything from it . However, the meeting of the Highest Council had begun just after he exchanged it, giving him little time to read it . “After the issues in the south of the Boundless Ocean are settled, Maltimus’ other intentions will be revealed . We cannot be careless . With the help of the Elven Court, while it is impossible for us to drive him back into hell for now, it is still fairly easy to hold the positions at the edge of the ocean . ”

“Then, one top legend is needed at the islands for the defense to reinforce the elven queen . ” Faced with such an important issue, Hellen joined the discussion too .

Douglas looked around at the members of the Highest Council at the meeting . Seeing that Lucien, Erica, Brook, and Ataman all agreed with Hellen, he said solemnly, “It’s better to be safe than sorry . Brook and I will go to the islands for defense . After the period when we are most likely to be ambushed passed, one top legend will stay there . ”

“I’m fine with that . My experiments can be conducted anywhere,” Brook replied without any hesitation .

Douglas turned to Fernando . “You shouldn’t go out for the time being . Stay and watch over Allyn together with Hathaway in case of the South Church’s ambush . ”

With the defense of Allyn and the top legends, he was not concerned about the North Church at all .

“I have no time to go out anyway,” Fernando complained, remembering the uncontrollable fission reactor and the many experiments concerning neutrons .

“You should try not to wander the main material world, in case Maltimus gets his eyes on you . He has melted the weirdness of primeval devils and is hard to resist . ” Douglas reminded them in the end .

Lucien did not say much during the whole meeting, as if he were considering other issues . The other members of the Highest Council did not find it strange . After all, he hadn’t healed from his wounds . There was little he could do to deal with the Lord of Hell . It was only reasonable that he was upset .

……

After he returned to the Atomic Universe, Lucien went straight to the top floor to continue the arrangement of his magic circle .

“A super-remote space jump circle?” Without anybody knowing it, it was already night . Natasha, who had finished her state affairs, returned to Babel . She observed for a while and found things that were similar to Lucien’s arrangement in her memories . She had lived with Lucien for many years, and her family had educated her well . So, although it was still impossible for her to understand and grasp the complicated magic patterns, she was much better at identifying circles and spells than before .

Lucien’s spiritual power was on the verge of exhaustion . So, he stopped the preparation and swallowed a dosage of “Light of Life” . In the meantime, he nodded and said, “Yes . ”

“Are you going to look for planets again? Have you figured out the secrets deep inside the Boundless Ocean? What exactly are they about, and what are their causes?” When Natasha remembered the key points of Lucien’s recent studies, her silver purple eyes were full of surprise and curiosity .

Lucien walked over with a smile . “I obtained something from the data and confirmed certain ideas I had in the past, allowing me to have a basic speculation about what is inside the Boundless Ocean . Now, I have applied my confirmed ideas to the problem that planets and stars cannot be found . I have adjusted the coordinates of my jump . Hopefully, my ideas will be confirmed again . ”

“If they are confirmed again, does it mean that planets and stars will be found soon?” Natasha looked at Lucien with a smile . Her voice was full of excitement as she spoke .

Since her childhood, she had been hearing about the mysteries that planets and stars could not be found from her mother, her seniors, and her husband . She had the genuine nice feelings about that just as any common arcanists did, hoping that the puzzle could be resolved someday .

A kitten seemed to be scratching her heart inside her body . She wanted Lucien to tell her what ideas he had confirmed and what his speculations were . However, Lucien was quite ambiguous right now . It was obvious that he did not intend to reveal it right now . So, always respecting other people, she could only hold back her curiosity .

“I hope that I can find them . ” Lucien seemed to be having a lot of mixed feelings . “As a matter of fact, with the facts that the ground is illuminated by the sunlight and that the space is full of radiations and asteroids, I have never suspected the existence of planets…”

It was not just the simple discovery of planets and the perfect confirmation of Douglas’ celestial bodies’ motion system, thereby unveiling the macroscopic world in front of everyone . It also meant that a great puzzle about the truth of the world would be unraveled, so the arcanists could further approach the truth through the answer to the puzzle .

“Are you going to look for the sun?” Natasha asked again . Since it was meant for confirmation, the sun was clearly more important and would take less time .

Looking at the dark and boundless Atomic Universe outside of the window, Lucien said, “Yes . That can be confirmed with the minimal time cost . If it doesn’t work out, I’ll be able to change my methodology or switch to other guesses . ”

Natasha walked to Lucien . Looking at the universe outside where colorful spots of light were glittering, she said regretfully, “If we can find planets, maybe you will earn the greatest feedback . You’ll probably reach the peak of legendary before I become a level-two legendary knight . ”

It was relatively easy for a level-one legendary to make an advancement . Therefore, Natasha believed that it would only take her another year for her to become a level-two legendary knight . However, it was much more difficult for her to reach level three and the peak than it was for legendary sorcerers, which could be seen by the fact that the whole world had five level-three legendary knights and one peak legendary knight . (After “Heart of Time” perished, another one had advanced recently . )

“Let’s say that I can find it and solve the puzzle that planets can never be found, it will be in the favor of legendary knights too . You must’ve sensed that by polishing your blood power and harnessing your supernatural powers, it will be barely possible to make further advancements . That’s because every class is inevitably connected to the truth of the world . You have to make yourself part of the ‘truth’ and reflect the ‘patterns’ in which the world operates . How can you know where to go next if you do not know the truth of the world, and how can you change and sublimate your life?”

Lucien’s answer was out of Natasha’s expectation . He had a deep understanding of the growth of legendary knights . Also, he seemed to be viewing the problem from a higher level .

Natasha felt warm in her heart . Then, she chuckled as usual . “Then, I’ll wait for Your Excellency to pave a brilliant way for all the legendary knights . Well, will it work out?”

“You will know the answer by then . However, it may take a long time before I tell you the real answer . ” Lucien looked out of the window with a smile; his voice was mysterious .

……

At the beginning of July, in the third generic school of Rentato…

“The first place of our monthly exam has surprised both me and all the teachers . It is evident from the previous monthly exams and his questions in the class that his foundation is not very good . However, we’ve all seen his hard work recently . His name is…” Brian, who taught Basics of Arcana, looked at the students down below with a smile .

Those students were all rather nervous because the rank this time would decide whether or not they could go to the cosmic observatory and see the space in person!

Ali couldn’t help but clench his hands tightly . Recently, he had forgotten all about sleeping and eating and was completely devoted to his studies, because he knew that his foundation was weak and that he had to make up for it with his hard work .

“… His name is Ali!”

BOOM!

Brian’s voice burst out in Ali’s head like a clap of thunder . His head became fuzzy, and he could not hear what his teacher said next .

“… Because there is a queue up ahead, the time of the visit has been scheduled at the end of August or the beginning of April…”

Have I really made it?

That was the only ecstatic idea in Ali’s head .
