Chapter 387: Magic Source: Moon

More than ten minutes later, Murphy stood in front of a dilapidated wooden house covered with moss. At his feet lay an ugly humanoid monster that had been riddled with holes by spells.

"Th, this seems to be a swamp hag," a magic disaster disposal specialist said. "But this thing has been extinct for hundreds of years. We originally thought they were extinct."

"There have been many similar things recently," another specialist said. "Last time, I saw a Quintaped in Wales. It shouldn't have appeared there."

"Found them!" a wizard shouted. Murphy looked over and saw the specialists carrying out unconscious wizards from the dilapidated wooden house one by one.

"Most are just unconscious, but two people seem to have been hit by a very serious illusion curse and must be taken to Jishi Wizard Hospital for treatment."

Murphy saw a familiar face among the unconscious wizards. He walked over and used a Finite Incantatem on Draco. The latter slowly woke up. At first, he just roared in terror, but soon, he saw Murphy clearly. "Professor, it's you, is it really you? Is it not an illusion of the monster torturing me?"

"Is seeing me a torture for you?" Murphy asked.

"No, no, Professor, it's really you. Did you come to save us?" Draco climbed up with a pale face. "There is a monster, very powerful. It has magic power of mental control and can make us see illusions. My teammates are all..."

"Don't worry, they are safe now," Murphy said, comforting the other person a few words. "I didn't even know you joined the special training team. You shouldn't have graduated yet, right?"

"No, but my combat strength is good, and I was admitted exceptionally," Draco said.

There was likely the energy of the Malfoy family in this, but Murphy didn't point it out.

"The training of the special training team is quite hard. How did you think of coming here? Even if you want to get ahead, it is safer to finish your studies first," Murphy said.

"School... the things taught in school are already outdated..." Malfoy said. "Although you have reformed many things, the education of wizards is outdated."

"I can feel that the world is changing, everyone is changing. Those who cannot change will be abandoned. I don't want to be abandoned; I want to walk at the forefront..."

"Oh?"

These words actually came out of Draco Malfoy's mouth, which really surprised him.

When he didn't know it, these children had also undergone significant changes.

"What you said is not bad. Since you have your own ideas, keep working hard," Murphy encouraged, then notified the Malfoy family to pick up the person through the lightning crow, and then called Selica aside.

"Mu, Murphy..." Selica's hands were nervously twisted together, and her flushed face was buried in her considerable chest.

Why didn't he notice before that this girl was so shy?

"Why, not calling me Lord anymore?" He teased with a smile.

"Lo, Lord..."

Selica's ear roots began to turn red.

"Tsk, it's only been a short time since we last met, and you're so distant," Murphy sighed. "Didn't you used to call me Master?"

"Eh?" Selica crashed for a moment.

Did I call him that?

It seems I did call him that many times in my dreams, but I shouldn't have said it out loud, right?

Right?

"Why, even forgotten this?" Murphy shook his head. "I'm so disappointed."

This seemed to cause some kind of mental blow to Selica. She suddenly reached out a hand and grabbed Murphy's hem.

"Ma, Master..."

Murphy's excellent hearing could hear the girl's rapid heartbeat clearly, and he could also feel the trembling breathing due to the other person's nervousness.

Hiss... seriously, this girl really has too much potential for being a masochist.

He felt a prehistoric power occupying the dark part of his brain.

Things like rope art, rulers, whips, and small candles were eroding his sanity.

SAN value, danger.

But no, at least finish the business first.

"Cough, alright," Murphy reached out and patted the other person's head. "I called you over to ask you something. Is the frequency of magic disasters very high recently? How does it compare to the past?"

"Ah?" Selica's little head was burning, and she didn't understand what Murphy was saying for a while.

"I need to know the change in the frequency of magic disasters over the past year, especially the change in the past three months. This may be very important."

Selica finally woke up a bit. "Go, good, I will count it."

Two days later, Murphy received Selica's report.

"The number of magic disasters has risen by more than 30% in the past three months, and it is becoming more and more frequent."

Murphy looked at the report in his hand and came to the Siberian ice sheet.

In a world of ice and snow, a metal high wall stood on this permafrost.

This was a super-giant radar that was 150 meters high, 500 meters wide, and built using more than 50,000 tons of magic metal.

Its name was the Eye of Odin, and it was a super-precision radar matrix used by the Void Particle Laboratory to perceive magic information.

In the monitoring room under the radar, Murphy met the person in charge of the Eye of Odin, Dennis Gelfins.

"Dennis, I need the magic background radiation situation for the past six months," Murphy said.

The so-called magic background radiation refers to the almost equal magic fluctuations diffused in the air or the earth after excluding those specific magic concentration points.

This is one of the most important indicators for measuring the global magic level.

After realizing that the growth of magic would bring danger, Murphy had already been preparing facilities to monitor magic background radiation.

And the reason why the Eye of Odin was built on the Siberian permafrost was also to maximize the exclusion of various interferences and obtain the most accurate data.

Soon, Murphy got a chart. Dennis pointed to the continuously rising curve above and said, "According to our continuous monitoring for half a year, the magic background radiation level has been rising, and its rising frequency is positively correlated with the number of people who know about magic according to the calculation."

Murphy took the chart and compared it with Selica's report in his hand. The curves in the two charts looked almost identical.

Although it was still not enough to draw a conclusion, there was indeed a very high possibility that the frequent occurrence of magic disasters and the increase in magic levels were related.

"Lord Murphy, we also discovered another phenomenon," Dennis said. "I think you might be interested in knowing."

As he said this, the latter took out another chart. "We found that magic background radiation is not homogeneous in all directions. And there is a regular fluctuation every day..."

"In fact, this fluctuation pattern is almost consistent with the tidal pattern... and we found that the magic radiation facing the moon is stronger, and the magic radiation facing away from the moon, which is the direction of the earth's core, is weaker..."

"You mean..."

"Yes, we speculate that the moon may be an extremely huge magic source."

"In fact, we previously launched a primordial substance exploration wave to the moon. According to the feedback results, there may be a large amount of primordial substance on the moon."

"We are still verifying the authenticity of this data, but... it is highly likely to be true."

"A large amount of primordial substance? How much?"

"Tens of thousands of tons, at least."

Tens of thousands of tons?

Primordial substance?!

If the assumption that primordial substance is divine blood is true, doesn't it mean that there are tens of thousands of tons of divine flesh and blood on the moon?

Did the gods commit mass suicide on the moon?

No, in the end... is that flesh and blood dead or alive?
