Natasha's lips twitched. She wisely ended the topic. It was better to leave it to the arcanists to understand such a dizzying thing.
She eyed Lucien up and down and asked half curiously and half concernedly, "What else did you get except for the substantialization of your cognitive world? I heard from Granny Hathaway and my mother that when similar results are made, the cognitive world will interact with the corresponding principles in the real world, resulting in different magic models. You made such a big noise just now. A few new spells must've been born, right? About time, space, mass and energy? "
The changes of the cognitive world were the main sign of a sorcerer's advancement. Half-substantialization corresponded to senior-rank, substantialization to archmages, and half-substantialization to project and affect the real world to legends.
"I got the prototypes of two legendary spells about the transformation of mass into energy." Lucien knew that they were the incomplete magic structures of fission and fusion. Although his cognitive world had changed in terms of the structure of time and space, he still lacked theories that could work on them directly. The best he could do was to optimize the spells like 'Time Stop' and make them simpler and easier to learn. To really get the legendary spells that could manipulate time and space, he probably had to wait until the general theory of relativity or quantum mechanics came out.
Even the structures of fission and fusion, the two legendary spells, were only accessible to Lucien, because he had proposed the model of the nucleus and decay. He knew the two phenomena and the chain reaction. If it were someone else, even if they had derived the mass-energy formula, they would have to grasp the relevant knowledge and make breakthroughs in the corresponding studies in order to generate interaction.
Natasha's attention was immediately attracted. "Legendary spells? No wonder … Lucien, what are you going to name it? "
The birth of a legendary spell was always not easy. Witnessing it in person made her feel that she was witnessing history, especially when the creator was only in his twenties.
"Evans' Little Boy? Lucien 'Big Ivan? "Lucien replied casually.
According to the incomplete magic model, the fusion spell could only be constructed in the soul without hurting oneself at the peak of legendary. The more familiar one was with it and the deeper one's knowledge was, the more powerful it would be, and the lower the requirement would be. However, after a thorough understanding of it, one had to be at least a level-two legendary sorcerer to be able to cast the long-distance projection spells, spell extension, spell delay, and purify materials that were specially developed.
The fission spells, on the other hand, should be able to be constructed in the legendary level after the relevant experiments and analysis. With the help of purified materials, it was even possible for the ninth circle to perform them. Thinking about that, Lucien thought quickly. "I wonder if the fusion spells can turn into helium flash or gamma-ray burst when they surpass the level of demigod … That will definitely destroy the world …"
When Natasha heard these two names, she smirked and looked at Lucien's lower body. "I don't think these two names are good. They seem to indicate two different situations. Let's change them."
Lucien was immediately embarrassed. As expected of "gentleman" Natasha. He waved his hands and said, "The magic model is not complete yet. Let's consider the names after it is completed."
"Okay. I'll help you name one of the legendary spells by then. I'm a great writer!" Natasha decided to take over the fun thing, but she kindly left one for Lucien. "Right. What kind of spell is it?"
Lucien basically described it. In the end, Natasha couldn't help but turn around and look at the night outside. She teased him in shock, "Maybe you will have a title such as the Sun God or Eternal Blaze in the future."
"I don't think it's possible even for the God of Truth to reach that level …" Lucien replied honestly and continued to influence Natasha's religious views, trying to degenerate her into the spiritual realm. It was a long-term, arduous work that concerned his future happiness. Lucien was determined to work on it.
Natasha, however, thought carefully for a moment. "Judging from the power of God's Arrival, it was far less powerful than the ultimate scene that you described. However, it might've been because the power was restrained and precisely controlled. It's a pity that your 'little boy' is not complete yet, and you don't have the casting materials of enough purity and quality. Otherwise, we could've set up a magic trap that was both a curse and a nuclear explosion. Chances were that we could've killed the Demigod-lich again with the cooperation of the Congus Ring. Then, we would've been truly safe."
For now, she referred to it with the name that Lucien casually came up with.
"Things will never go as smoothly as we imagine. Also, my cognitive world has only been substantialized, and my spiritual power is still in the seventh circle. I'm not close to the ninth circle yet. Even though my spiritual power has been improved rapidly due to the influence of the two demigods, I estimate that my spiritual power will reach the eighth circle at best in a week. It will take several years for me to advance into the ninth circle."
Lucien evaluated his status objectively. Not frustrated, he said with a smile, "Our original purpose was to put on 'Congus Ring' to increase the odds of survival. As long as the purpose is achieved, there will be no regrets."
Although there was a chance that Congus' head would explode and die if he directly "threw" the paper to Congus, Lucien believed that Congus would not dare to go through Lucien's work again after being taken advantage of twice.
While talking, Lucien put on the black iron ring with vintage patterns.
The moment it touched his flesh, it began to absorb Lucien's spiritual power crazily. As his spiritual power was drained, his cognitive world began to shake slightly, but the substantialized space and reflections quickly increased his spiritual power and slowed down the flow.
After a few seconds, the crazy absorption gradually calmed down, and the blackness on the surface of the ring faded, emitting weird, cold, metallic colors.
Lucien moved his body and said in delight, "The magic resistance, body strength, and physical defense improved by 'Congus Ring' can be stacked with other magic items, but it cannot exceed its upper limit. It's truly a 'divine weapon'!"
As a result, Lucien would boast the eighth-circle magic resistance and the body strength of a level-five Knight even without the transformation.
"Also, it is immune to and weakened a lot of spells." Natasha looked at 'Congus Ring' in admiration.
Lucien shook his head with a smile. "Immunity is not omnipotent and can be avoided. For example, instead of working on me directly, it can affect the environment and hurt me with the changes of the environment. Also, after I put on the ring, I cannot buff myself with magic defense below the ninth circle anymore, but the spells that I prepare in advance will not be affected. So, I have to choose whether or not to put it on according to the specific situation."
"After all, you can perform legendary spells now. We are no longer as helpless as before when we are faced with Demigod-lich. Where are we going next?" Although it was only dawn, and there was still one day to go before Demigod-lich arrived, Natasha knew very well that the more preparation, the more hope they had.
Touching the ring, Lucien said, "A legendary spell should be enough to drain the power contained in the ring and my spiritual power. So, we have to seize the opportunity. Right now, let's go to Death Valley to 'find' Ell. "
"Haven't you already put on the ring? We don't need to catch Ell anymore, do we? "Natasha was somewhat confused.
Lucien smiled. "Ell's place is a bit weird. We have to investigate it in case of any accidents. Also, it's exactly because I'm wearing the ring that we have to catch Ell. Demigod-lich can't expect that I can substantiate my cognitive world and put on the ring so quickly. When he sees us together with Ell, who do you think he will be wary of? "
Because of Alterna and the mysterious existence of the World of Souls, Lucien was bold enough to discuss how to trick the legendary sorcerer. Otherwise, chances were that Demigod-lich would have sensed the danger the moment the plan was made, just like the Lord of the Undead did last time.
"You're truly cunning." Natasha remarked with mixed feelings.
"Alright, let's go." Lucien put away the alchemy platform and the paper. He was about to step forward, when he thought of something and asked, "Natasha, did you say that I caused a lot of noises?"
Natasha nodded affirmatively. "When you were writing your paper, I sensed the feeble changes of time and space. When you were almost done, a new sun rose in the dark night outside. It was so scorching and terrifying that the monsters and beasts are still 'crying'. Although it only lasted one or two seconds, I'm sure that it was not my illusion."
"How did it happen?" Lucien asked in surprise. Shouldn't such a situation mean that one's cognitive world was half-solidified and began to affect the real world? However, he was still far away from legendary.
Telling her what he knew about it, Lucien looked at Natasha in confusion, hoping that she could give him some ideas.
Natasha looked at Lucien helplessly. "I'm not good at such things at all. Well, perhaps it's because this world is special. After all, even spiritual power and willpower are suppressed."
"Maybe …" Lucien began to think about it, but he did not have any clue. In the meantime, he noticed the brilliance of godhood that was entangled in Natasha's left arm. His lips twitching, he decided not to remind her and wait for it to disperse naturally.
Natasha, on the other hand, noticed Lucien's eyes. She turned her head and looked at her left arm. "Is this the brilliance of godhood?"
"You can see it?" Lucien was even more surprised.
Natasha blinked, not understanding why Lucien was so surprised. She said innocently, "I've always been able to see it. Other people can see it too. What's wrong?"
"That's not right. In the main material world, those who do not have special methods and special items cannot see the brilliance of godhood." Lucien believed that Natasha would not lie to him. Then, Ell provided the laurel box because Francis, Jacob and the rest of them could not touch the brilliance of godhood, but it did not mean that they could not see it.
"Perhaps it's because of the uniqueness of this world." Natasha still used the same excuse. She was really not good at it.
Lucien paced back and forth. "The uniqueness of this world … According to my hypothesized system, the brilliance of godhood is the convergence of special electromagnetic waves. Then, how can it be seen by those who do not know how?"
Suddenly, Lucien had an idea. "Perhaps it's because the magnetic fields of the bodies and souls of the intelligent creatures in this world are slightly different from those in the main material world, which makes their 'power of faith' stronger and easier to disperse. Also, because the false gods here do not have specific doctrines and rituals to guide them, most of the special electromagnetic waves such as the 'power of faith' has been lost and diffused in the air, causing serious electromagnetic pollution and suppressing the spiritual power that may also be electromagnetic waves. So to speak, the projection of will is also due to electromagnetic waves?"
"In the same way, because of the special electromagnetic waves that diffuse in different 'frequency bands', godhood will 'react' with part of them and produce brilliance. That's why it can be seen by ordinary people. When my cognitive world changed, it resonated with a certain electromagnetic wave in the outside world, resulting in the anomaly."
"However, what's with the projection of the real world and the new magic model? Perhaps, my previous speculation is only part of the truth and not the whole thing. "
Seeing that Lucien was deep in thought and hearing his mumbling, Natasha comforted him with a smile. "It must be the deepest mysteries that cannot be explored so quickly. Let's take our time and find intelligent creatures to study the differences of their magnetic fields."
"Yes, the most important thing right now is still Demigod-lich." Lucien stopped thinking and hinted Natasha to leave for Death Valley together with him.
At this moment, Natasha smiled like a fox. "I remember something. Asin, the God of Love and Beauty, seemed to be a male centaur in the past. The dead body can prove it. However, after he melted with this part of the godhood, he turned into a beautiful lady."
While talking, she touched the brilliance of 'godhood' on her left arm curiously, although she could not touch anything.
"Don't overthink it." Lucien looked at her solemnly.
Natasha laughed dryly. "Am I such a capricious girl? Godhood is in conflict with your cognitive world. How can I harm you with it? Well, I'll have to ask Granny Hathaway to build an extraordinary item with the godhood. Do you think earrings, rings, or belts, headwear, or dresses are better? "
"A longsword," said Lucien expressionlessly.
Natasha exclaimed in surprise. "Why?"
"A longsword made with the 'godhood' of a senior-rank pseudo-god can only be picked up by a heavenly Knight or a talented, regular Knight. In such a way, nobody will pick it up by mistake," continued Lucien expressionlessly.
Natasha chuckled. "That works too. What's the name of it?"
Lucien thought for a moment and was amused. "It's called the Sword of Contract and Victory. When the young man drew the longsword, his fate was changed."
After that, ignoring Natasha's confusion, Lucien walked out of the cave.
