Chapter 2810: Research Experience of Holy Power

~7 min read 1,377 words

Although the Lady of Mysteries does not mind Mages obtaining Her Holy Power and conducting research, She also almost never responds to any inquiries from Mages.

Aiboke does not believe he is capable of achieving such outstanding magical accomplishments that the Lady of Mysteries would look at him differently or communicate with him; such things are only worth dreaming about, and it would be too naive to take them seriously after waking up.

Therefore, after only a moment of reserve, Aiboke accepted Xia Duo's invitation; once their next destination was determined, Aiboke appeared even more eager than Xia Duo himself.

"When do we start? I have some records of my past research on Divine Magic here; would you like to see them?"

"No rush. Let's fully understand each other's research progress first, then we can decide how to proceed. What do you think?"

"That works too."

Prompted by Xia Duo, Aiboke quickly calmed down; he turned to find his research records, while Xia Duo cast a spell on the spot to transcribe his own previous research process regarding Order Force.

A moment later, Aiboke returned to the Reception Room, and the two exchanged research notes; Xia Duo only had two thin records, but Aiboke had many—a whole stack, nearly ten times that of Xia Duo.

"Then I'll head back first; I might have to go see Niya later. You know where my Laboratory is; once you finish reading my notes, just go there and wait for me. You can use the equipment in the Laboratory; feel free to do whatever you like."

After saying this, Xia Duo granted Aiboke secondary Permission Level for the Level 3 Laboratory, then left with the other's notes.

Only when Xia Duo said he would still leave the Myth Lock Design to you did you breathe a sigh of relief; if Xia Duo were not responsible for testing and construction, it would likely delay the update of the Myth Lock.

It is said that obtaining Aiboke's research notes saved Xia Duo a considerable amount of time!

Even if Holy Power can be determined not to be Yuan Shi Zhi Li, as long as it possesses the characteristics of Yuan Shi Zhi Li, the process of researching it cannot be applied to the research of Order Force.

But even so, that rough reading gave me a relatively comprehensive understanding of Aiboke's research.

However, Aiboke's notes also mentioned that the Holy Power perceived by a Priest cannot exist in the form of Divine Magic; in most cases, so-called Divine Magic is merely the experience of using Holy Power that the Priest has developed themselves.

It is just that Aiboke himself has not yet been able to obtain such Divine Magic.

Although they are an old married couple, Niya was still a bit embarrassed to have her little thoughts seen through; her earlobes turned a shade of crimson almost instantly, and she hurriedly replied as if to cover it up:

But most cases do not represent all; Holy Power in the form of Divine Magic is a Holy Power spell that the god has "pre-packaged," which a Priest can use immediately after obtaining it without needing to develop it themselves.

But after agreeing, she could not help but worry about whether she could keep up with Xia Duo's progress.

At the time, Xia Duo was very envious of such methods, but he was simply not qualified to bargain with the Princess back then; later, his relationship with the Tower of Time remained distant.

But the other one was clearly much more useful, similar to the effect of 【Dispel Magic】, but more effective; furthermore, Aiboke's notes mentioned that the 【Secret Flame Baptism Ritual】 was also obtained in the form of Divine Magic.

"Ah?"

Although the reason for the interference was very sufficient, Niya still felt she had been underestimated.

Subsequently, Niya brought up the main topic, "I heard from Saixili that you are preparing to update the Communication Mythallar?"

Aiboke's notes recorded two ready-made Divine Magic spells he had perceived; one was 【Blue and White Flame】, which the vast majority of Arcane Priests can obtain, capable of summoning a cluster of blue and white flames.

Looking at all of Aiboke's research, it was similar to Xia Duo's initial research on the Eastern World Identity Token, remaining more on the surface and failing to touch the essence.

It has no particularly practical use; it is usually used by Arcane Priests to display their status.

Niya spoke first: "What are you thinking about so intently?"

Xia Duo had long anticipated this question; he smiled slightly, looked into Niya's eyes, and said, "Well, you do the Myth Lock Design, and leave the testing and construction to me. How does that sound?"

Holy Power is undoubtedly a magical force; the Holy Power Aiboke perceived comes from the Lady of Mysteries. In Xia Duo's view, Holy Power might also be a type of Yuan Shi Zhi Li, or at least possess some characteristics of Yuan Shi Zhi Li.

Priests obtain Holy Power through Perception; it looks like they have obtained a force processed by the main god from the gods, but by reading Aiboke's research records, Holy Power possesses quite a few characteristics of Yuan Shi Zhi Li.

Tower of Time, top-floor Study.

"I have no problem."

"Put it down; this time it was Aiboke who requested it voluntarily."

……

……

"You are going to research Order Force with Uncle Aiboke?"

Things like Order Force or specific elemental forces are all real, and even exist naturally in the natural world; they may possess various special effects without being processed, and this is Yuan Shi Zhi Li.

She had actually come over with the intention of questioning him, as it had already been agreed that the Communication Mythallar would be handled by her, yet not long after, Xia Duo wanted to interfere again.

But now that Xia Duo looked at these research processes from the perspective of the Lord of Order, he indeed gained something; or rather, any research on Yuan Shi Zhi Li is useful to him!

"That's good."

There was even conflict with the Controller of the Gilles High Tower, who was most likely to possess this spell, so that goes without saying; it was not until the Seville Covenant was signed and his relationship with the Tower of Time progressed further that he obtained this spell from Badijiaer.

【Scholar's Touch】, the auxiliary spell obtained from the Tower of Time, was very suitable for this situation; when the Princess came to inspect Nan Jing, she demonstrated what it meant to finish reading a book in an instant right in front of him.

As the spell was completed, Xia Duo indeed finished reading Aiboke's research notes in an instant—not just one, but all of them. If it were an ordinary person, even with spell assistance, they could only achieve a rough reading.

Some don't even count as spells; many are just direct utilizations of the properties of Holy Power itself, such as the Holy Power healing often used by Priests of the Lord of Radiance, which utilizes the Positive Energy characteristics within the Holy Power of the Lord of Radiance.

Xia Duo sat in front of the Projection Window, checking Aiboke's research notes while waiting for Niya to arrive; it was clearly not enough to manually flip through so many notes.

"Thinking about researching Order Force with Aiboke," Xia Duo replied casually.

But Xia Duo has a bloodline anomaly that allows him to trace memories, which is equivalent to remembering everything; it is just that he cannot understand it as thoroughly as knowledge he has truly comprehended himself, and he still occasionally needs to recall when it involves some details.

Niya was a bit surprised by this answer, but did not probe too much, only reminding him, "Uncle Aiboke also has his own things to do; if it's not necessary, don't trouble him."

So, could one make such a conjecture—that Holy Power might merely be a force naturally exuded by the gods, not a force specifically processed, just like the heat naturally radiated by the human body?

Just as Xia Duo was repeatedly studying Aiboke's notes in his mind, Niya arrived quietly; he only reacted when she sat down beside him.
