Chapter 741: It's Finally Over...

Esmeralda clapped her hands together, as if she had just finished some very exhausting work.

However, no one would accept this explanation of hers.

Because...

"According to your explanation, wouldn't athletes be more likely to obtain SSS-grade talents? Then why are there so few people with this grade of talent?"

David also frowned along.

This was no joke.

Even among the top-tier players in their manor, only [Death] Li Huai was an SSS-grade existence.

The rest of the people were not of the top-tier SSS-grade.

So his question was also the question of all the manor members.

Esmeralda looked at everyone in some surprise.

In the end, she found that Lan Qingyou was looking at her with a smile.

So...

"Alright, actually, besides physical constitution, there's also a need for sensitivity to magic power, with E-grade being the lowest."

Because Lan Qingyou's smile was a bit scary, Esmeralda chose to surrender directly.

"That's not right. Tower's sensitivity to magic power isn't low, right."

When it came to something like magic power, how could there be anyone more sensitive than a witch?

One had to know that even Majin of the same spiritual type were not as exaggerated as witches.

And all of this originated from a witch's Demon Eye.

After all, since they were existences that could directly see it, they were innately stronger than others in this aspect.

"That was in the past..."

"If Tower's legs were convenient, then her rating definitely wouldn't be E. Besides, this grade is of a comprehensive nature, so you can't just look at a single aspect. Anyway, just take it as that in general."

Esmeralda waved her hand dismissively.

The current Esmeralda looked just like a corporate slave who would lounge on the sofa drinking beer and binge-watching shows after getting off work.

But thinking about the experiences this guy revealed earlier...

Alright.

In a sense, she really was a corporate slave.

She might even be worse off than a corporate slave.

"Sigh... to put it simply, it's the difference in the amount of magic power awakened."

Seeing the person involved looking too lazy to move, Lan Qingyou sighed.

"Amount awakened?"

A new term made everyone, who already didn't understand due to Esmeralda slightly slacking off, even more bewildered.

"Do you guys still remember that discussion we had in the group before regarding the modification of the body?"

"Modification of the body... Are you talking about that discussion regarding the first breath of air containing magic power after transmigrating?"

The members who joined later might not be very clear about this discussion.

But those guys from before Lan Qingyou were very clear about it.

That was around the time Lan Qingyou had just joined the group a few years ago.

At that time, everyone even had a passionate discussion about matters related to magic power because of this incident.

Thinking about it now, the fact that a discussion brought up casually back then could connect with the current discussion was quite absurd.

"Correct."

Lan Qingyou nodded.

Then she looked at the people who joined later and hadn't participated in that discussion.

After all, right now, it sounded like they were listening to gibberish.

Completely unable to find a foothold.

"At that time, the conclusion we reached was that the moment we breathed in the first mouthful of air containing magic power, our bodies were already being modified by the magic power of this world."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible to awaken any talent without a foundation of magic power."

"Even with the help of the heaven-defying magic desk, it would be impossible."

Lan Qingyou briefly explained.

With this, the rest of the uninformed people finally understood.

So after nodding to indicate they understood, they politely gestured for Lan Qingyou to continue.

"On this basis, with Fortune's endorsement, we can then reach the following conclusions."

"First, our bodies were indeed modified, and barring any surprises, it was very thorough."

"Second, because it was simply too thorough, this level was needed as a threshold."

"To put it bluntly, our bodies have actually already become existences capable of reaching SSS-grade due to magic power."

"But neither our consciousness nor our techniques could keep up at all, so they simply used levels as a valve. Only after increasing our consciousness and techniques can our level rise."

"This is what they call grinding mobs to level up."

"And after this rise, the originally locked valve automatically opens, and the originally possessed energy is released bit by bit, resulting in the most intuitive manifestations like a visible increase in mana value."

"As for supporting evidence, everyone can read the thesis I published previously regarding the release of magic power and the creation of magic."

Lan Qingyou spoke with assurance, and even brought out arguments.

And the members were naturally clear about it in their hearts.

Especially Professor [The Hermit] Samael.

After all, he was the one who initiated the matter regarding the creation of magic back then.

"Honestly, you really think a lot all by yourself."

After she finished speaking, Lan Qingyou, who heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Esmeralda and exclaimed.

"Understood. So it's similar to gene locks in novels or games?"

"You definitely didn't read the thesis, did you."

"Hehe."

Gu Xiaobei clapped her hands together, putting on a look of sudden realization.

Seeing this made Lan Qingyou angry, and she pointed directly at the other party's nose and scolded her.

Making Gu Xiaobei smile awkwardly.

And Esmeralda on this side nodded after watching the interaction between the two.

Then, imitating Lan Qingyou, she pointed her finger at Lan Qingyou's nose.

"That's basically the gist of it. It's just that there's a guy here who likes to make her own keys to open the gene lock when she has nothing better to do."

"Uh... hehe."

Being pointed at by the nose, Lan Qingyou imitated Gu Xiaobei's earlier behavior and smiled awkwardly.

To be honest, after sorting through Esmeralda's train of thought, she also realized that she did seem to have ruined quite a few of the other party's plans.

Whether it was the initial Talent Potion or the later Witch Potion.

However...

"You can't blame me for this. I was also living my life with all my might back then."

Lan Qingyou's exclamation earned her eye rolls from the crowd around her.

Are you kidding?

You, a witch, needed to live with all your might?

Then what about the rest of the people?

Living desperately?

Oh, right, they really were living desperately.

"Phew—"

It's over...

Lan Qingyou, who had finally unravelled the long-standing doubts in her heart, let out a long sigh of relief.

Completely relaxed, she simply tilted her head back and lay down on the deck.

Lying spread-eagled, she looked at the star-filled sky and the full moon.

The moon tonight was exceptionally large and exceptionally bright.

As if it were accentuating Lan Qingyou's relaxed and joyful mood at this moment.

It made people feel even more joyous.

For a witch with robust curiosity, unraveling her doubts like this, and getting a perfect score with everything completely right, made her feel unparalleled satisfaction.

To be honest.

It was precisely because she had previously guessed that the Will of the World was highly likely to disappear.

That Lan Qingyou had asked the members of the Witch Coven to come here as early as possible to conduct research on the magic array...
