Chapter 625: The Birth of Goetia

【Year 4, September: Zelretch has left. The Magecraft Academy has also sent off its final student.

128 students have departed from Jerusalem; from here on, the magecraft of this world will be passed down.】

Watching this scene, Lin Ye was still quite satisfied.

"Haha, I suppose this counts as being a teacher, doesn't it?"

Lin Ye was clearly very satisfied with himself; how could he not grant himself an achievement for this?

【Year 4, October: You have locked the gates of the Magecraft Academy, yet at this very moment, Suoluomen has found you in high spirits.

"What's wrong, Suoluomen? In such a good mood? Did you find money?"

"Do you think I'm the type to be greedy for wealth? Never mind that, Lin Ye! My final Human Order Correction formula is about to be completed!"】

"Ha??!!"

In an instant, Lin Ye was stunned.

Damn it! What is going on! I just let my guard down for a second, and you, guy, have already brought Goetia into existence!

Did you even ask me first!

【Looking at the excited Suoluomen, Lin Ye immediately grabbed his shoulders and asked, "Goetia? Where is it? Where is it?"】

"Hmm? Goetia? Who is that?" Suoluomen asked blankly.

"It's that final Human Order Correction formula of yours! Where is it? Take me to it, where is my sword?"

"Hmm? Haha, Lin Ye, as expected of my good friend, have you already named my new magecraft so quickly? Goetia? It sounds quite pleasant. It's decided, my magecraft shall be called that."

Looking at the smug Suoluomen, Lin Ye barely managed to resist the urge to punch him directly.

And then, Suoluomen said:

"However, although it is a magecraft I developed, in fact, it is merely a result that was bound to appear. I discovered that those pillars in the Grand Time Temple have undergone strange changes; as their consciousnesses intertwined, a collective consciousness is actually being born. Wouldn't you say that's interesting?"

"Interesting my foot. So, Goetia isn't finished yet?"

"No." Suoluomen shook his head.

"Then, can its completion be stopped?"

"Ha?" Although Suoluomen did not understand the meaning behind Lin Ye's words, he still shook his head. "That's impossible; it's not under my control."

"Is that so? There's no other way. Where is my sword! I'm going to go chop up those seventy-two pillars of yours right now!"

"Lin Ye! Stop that! Don't just go around tearing the house down at the slightest disagreement!" Suoluomen hurriedly hugged Lin Ye. Good heavens, how had he never noticed before that Lin Ye had such a short temper.】

Looking at Suoluomen like this, Lin Ye sighed helplessly.

The Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars were Suoluomen's greatest power, and the Grand Time Temple was also Suoluomen's trump card; if these two were destroyed, Suoluomen would basically be half-ruined.

Then his own evaluation would probably drop to B. However, he couldn't just watch Goetia appear like this either.

Although he possessed divinity and wasn't afraid of Goetia's Anti-Summoning, he could still crush Goetia easily once he finished the Holy Grail War and unlocked another seal...

Then what was he afraid of?

"It's just 'President Goe', if you behave yourself in the future, I'll keep you well-fed with good wine and food. If you don't listen... hehe."

【Lin Ye and Suoluomen went directly to the Grand Time Temple. Looking at the Goetia that had not yet formed, Lin Ye said directly to Suoluomen:

"Suoluomen, can you make a ring? As long as one holds this ring, can it make Goetia do whatever one wants?"

Suoluomen shook his head and said, "How is that possible? This is a collective of the 72 Demon God Pillars; how could any magecraft achieve that?"

Lin Ye: "Then... have you ever thought, what if after this Goetia is born, its perception of humanity is 'evil'?"

Hearing Lin Ye say this, Suoluomen's expression changed. He lowered his head and pondered for a long time before finally saying:

"I understand."

Suoluomen turned to leave, and seeing him turn, Lin Ye suddenly grabbed his shoulder and asked:

"What the hell do you actually understand!"

"I'm going to make a ring right now. As long as I use it, I can erase my entire existence. Wouldn't Goetia disappear along with it then? Don't worry, Lin Ye, I have the resolve for this. It's just death, it doesn't matter to me."

Hearing Suoluomen say this, Lin Ye gave him a slap on the head. Looking at Suoluomen, who was gritting his teeth in pain, Lin Ye then said:

"It's just a Goetia, is it worth risking your life? I mean, you make a ring. It doesn't need many functions; it just needs to be able to immediately reclaim control over the other nine rings."

"Just that??? Will it work?"

"Of course it will!" Lin Ye patted his chest confidently.】

The hardest things to deal with regarding Goetia were its two defensive skills.

0 ··Seeking flowers····· ·····

One was Suoluomen's Ring EX, which made Goetia ignore all human magecraft.

One was Anti-Summoning EX, which made Goetia ignore all Heroic Spirit abilities and Noble Phantasms.

But Lin Ye's existence was an exception.

First of all, he was human. His abilities, strictly speaking, were not Noble Phantasms evolved from the faith Heroic Spirits received, but true abilities of his own.

It is just like the difference between an Heroic Spirit's true body and a Servant; usually, one summons a Servant, but Lin Ye is equivalent to the Heroic Spirit himself.

Therefore, Anti-Summoning was useless against him. As for those rings of Suoluomen's, they were indeed a bit troublesome. Having Suoluomen open a backdoor himself, just like a programmer, setting up 'standard user permissions' - 'administrator permissions' - 'developer permissions', that shouldn't be a problem, right?

Once Goetia lost its invincibility, wouldn't he be able to defeat it easily?

【Seeing Lin Ye's confident appearance, Suoluomen nodded, then asked Lin Ye for a few more cakes and left.

Year 4, December: Suoluomen brought out two rings. He didn't explain one ring and put it on his own finger, while he handed the other ring to Lin Ye.

Suoluomen said solemnly to Lin Ye:

"Lin Ye, if one day, Goetia truly does something that brings disaster to the world, and if I cannot stop it, you must... kill him for me!"

Hearing Suoluomen's words, Lin Ye nodded silently.

And at this moment, inside the Grand Time Temple, a new storm had already appeared. In the center of the seventy-two Demon God Pillars, a phantom had already emerged.

Looking at this phantom, Lin Ye silently took two cakes out of the Imaginary Number Space. He handed one to Suoluomen, and then the two of them sat down together to watch the birth of Goetia.

Lin Ye: "Suoluomen, I might be leaving soon. Do you have anything to say to me?"

Suoluomen: "I do."

Lin Ye: "What is it?"

"I don't want this chocolate cake. I like strawberry flavor."

Lin Ye:............

"Eat, eat, eat! It's all yours! Watch out for diabetes!"

Lin Ye threw both cakes to Suoluomen. Holding the two cakes in his hands, Suoluomen silently took a bite before saying:

"Then... we will meet again in the future, right?"

"Yeah. Next time, I'll treat you to cake."

"Still strawberry flavor?"

"Any flavor is fine, I'll provide enough!"】 ===== CHAPTER 627 =====
