Chapter 957: Then I'll Let You See the Pinnacle of Magitech

~7 min read 1,239 words

All for the sake of winning the other party over.

And planning to have the other party join his secret research after getting familiar.

As a result, he didn't expect that the other party would actually create something like [Goddess Summoning], which completely belonged to the category of forbidden Magic Arrays, even before joining.

Although they couldn't use it due to differences in magic.

They could still conduct mutant research through this Magic Array.

That's right.

Mutants like magic monsters.

Because previously they couldn't find any good methods, nor were there precedents of human evolution.

So the old Emperor could only find mutants among magic monsters to conduct research.

Naturally, the direction of researching the Magic Array leaned towards the magic monster side.

As a result, the things researched naturally became magic monster-related.

It was just that being impatient at the time, he didn't conduct tests.

And the result was turning into this appearance now.

But this didn't matter.

Although he turned from a human into an existence like a magic monster.

At least he had obtained evolution and became an existence capable of longevity.

It was just that he needed to periodically acquire a massive amount of magic to maintain his 'palace'.

This wasn't much to the old Emperor.

Even because of eating magic, like Perry, he could also acquire power from his 'food' to strengthen himself.

Therefore.

The old Emperor thought.

If he could gather all the prominent Magicians in the Empire for him to feed on.

Could he step onto an even higher level?

That's why this summons happened.

But it seemed his choice was wrong.

At the very least, he shouldn't have summoned Lan Qingyou.

If the other party hadn't seen through his changes, he wouldn't have had to activate his ability under that kind of situation.

Clearly, everything imagined was very perfect.

The plan was also very comprehensive.

As a result, he didn't expect to fall at the hands of the person he had placed great hopes on.

And the old Emperor's words left the crowd directly speechless.

Especially since these people were originally rigorous scholars.

Because of what the other party said.

"This guy's speech is simply an Internal Contradiction."

Elisa, half-kneeling on the Flying Carpet and looking at the old Emperor, sighed.

On the one hand, the old Emperor said it was to find a way out for humanity so as not to be threatened by powerful mutated magic monsters.

On the other hand, he himself stopped being human and became a magic monster.

And he also wanted to devour the entire Empire...

If this wasn't an Internal Contradiction, what was it?

"The current Howard has already been blinded by his own obsession."

Mera shook her head and sighed.

Her old friend now was no longer the one she knew.

In the end, he wasn't even a human anymore.

"Who cares about him. Since he has already targeted us, then don't blame me for being impolite."

Lan Qingyou didn't care about this or that.

The other party already wanted to devour her, so she had no reason to let him off.

"Ha!"

"Impolite?"

"Lord Lan Qingyou, I admit your magic is very strong."

"But that is only 'very strong', it's not without weaknesses."

"My Imperial Palace can isolate the magic connection between the inside and the outside."

"Under the circumstance of having no connection, I really can't imagine how exactly you can summon those Meteorites falling from the sky!"

"Not to mention you, even Mera, without a magic connection, wanting to Teleport out of my Imperial Palace is an impossible thing!"

The old Emperor sneered.

Although the other party was indeed very powerful.

But it was only to this extent.

Magic, in the end, was also part of natural power.

As long as the natural power and the magic inside the human body were isolated.

Then no matter how powerful the other party was outside.

Here they could only use their own magic to fight.

And how much magic could there be inside a human body?

Even someone as strong as Mera absolutely couldn't fight for an hour in a high-intensity battle without any external magic replenishment.

After hearing the old Emperor say this, Mera also frowned tightly.

She knew this was a complete dead end.

Even if she could deal with him for a period of time.

Ultimately, she would still lose to magic depletion.

Not only her.

Even Albert and Nicolas, who couldn't be considered combat power at all, showed solemn expressions on their faces.

As for Elisa.

She even wanted to laugh right now.

Magic depletion?

This was a fundamentally impossible thing.

Leaving herself aside.

The fellow next to her was the Witch of Origin.

She could even be said to be the endpoint the old Emperor pursued his whole life.

Wanting her magic to deplete.

That fundamentally couldn't be done without one or two months, right.

Taking a step back.

Even if it was done, based on her understanding of the Tower Witch.

The other party definitely still had some backup plans.

This wasn't replenishing with things like Mana Potions.

But some other methods.

On this point, she still believed in Lan Qingyou very much.

"So in your eyes, my magic is this unbearable."

Lan Qingyou pinched the bridge of her nose.

How should she put it?

There was just this unpleasant feeling of being underestimated.

Although she knew the other party was a Karim native, and didn't know her situation, which was why he made such 'reasonable conjectures'.

But unpleasant is unpleasant.

She wasn't idle enough to try and understand the other party at a time like this.

"Let me think, you must think that without external replenishment, you'll try to drag us down, and then devour us, right?"

"No way? No way!"

Because she was displeased.

So Lan Qingyou used that kind of very punchable expression.

She even, in order to mock the other party with a foul mouth.

And make herself feel a bit more pleased, slightly leaned her body forward.

Looking like this, no matter who saw her, they would have the urge to punch her.

"Since it's like this, then I'll let you see what the true pinnacle of Magitech is."

Lan Qingyou didn't want to chat anymore.

She wasn't even willing to wait for the other party to strike first like in melodramatic plots.

Anyway, chatting with this guy was just a waste of time.

If she had even known it was a matter like this.

She absolutely wouldn't have come to the Imperial Capital.

Therefore.

Saying these words, she curled the corners of her mouth in a ferocious smile and opened her arms.

And released her magic.

Boom—

In an instant.

The Audience Chamber changed from a main color tone of scarlet to a vast expanse of grey.

"You... how can you..."

The old Emperor looked in disbelief at everything happening before his eyes.

Right now.

He couldn't even judge what kind of situation this was anymore.

Never seen it!

Completely never seen what this situation was.

Even among the millions of books in The Library of the Royal Palace, there had never been a description of the current situation.

The pinnacle of Magitech?

Is this caused by the pinnacle of Magitech?

"Magic... can actually change the surrounding color!?"

Seeing all this, Mentor Mera couldn't help but say blankly.

This had obviously exceeded her understanding of magic over the past decades.
