Throne of Magical Arcana

Without the barrier of air, the magician's mental power spreads more comfortably and less attenuates, so the range covered by the mental force field is wider, which is dozens of times that of the ground. However, in such a wide range, Lucien Others can only feel that an artificial planet is operating in a solitary manner, and the whole environment is desolate and lonely. This is the most intuitive feeling of the real universe outside the atmosphere.

On such an orbit, Lucien, Douglas, Fernando, and Helen floating around the artificial planet are so small, but they are full of aura that cannot be ignored, as if they are small suns, natural secrets, and Thunder. The hell of hell, the universe inside the atom and the illusion of ice and snow.

After the legendary magician's spiritual force field is fully deployed, the semi-solidified cognitive world will interfere with reality together with the demiplane!

In such a quiet and sad environment, Lucien smiled and answered Helen's question: "Because I prefer the church to imitate us, catch up with us, and compete with us in the field we are good at, instead of focusing on the so-called theological research." In fact, once they focus on this aspect, they may find a way to fully apply 'Heaven Hill' at some point."

Helen nodded thoughtfully: "So, you show the important role of the artificial planet in order to distract the church from its own strengths and compete with us in areas that they are not good at at all but we understand very deeply?"

"Yes, although they may not be able to study the mysteries of Mount Paradise, but before we have an overwhelming advantage, it is best to prevent accidents." Lucien nodded slightly.

"Aren't you worried that the situation will deteriorate rapidly after the church masters the secrets of the artificial planet? It has an extremely important role. It is a weapon at the strategic level that you often say, turning ordinary air control into planetary orbit control." Douglas asked kindly with a smile.

The term "air control" is not difficult to understand for the Magic Council. "Sky City" itself is a product of air control, but it has not been summarized into a concept.

Lucien said calmly: "The role of the artificial planet is indeed great, but the parts we have developed and can use are still very few of them. Before solving the energy problem, it can only play signal transmission, monitoring, and mapping. The auxiliary role of the terrain is not the key to determining the outcome, but the most important thing is the transmission of signals."

"For the church, due to the extensive deployment of image transmission arrays, the control area on the opposite side of the Storm Strait, the middle-level clergy level can basically achieve the effect similar to the use of artificial planets, and the places occupied by us and the northern church could have been, But not now, as for the live broadcast and other forms, how can they allow ordinary people to enjoy it? For them, the less ordinary people know, the better."

"What they value is the potential part of the signal transmission value of the artificial planet, but the part that can be used now can at most restore them to the situation before the Rentat battle. For us, this is not a particularly bad change. Moreover, we who have a thorough understanding of the principles and details of artificial planets, can't we restrict the church's artificial planets, have no way to 'invade' it, and steal communication secrets? This is an area we are familiar with and good at!"

Speaking of this, Lucien suddenly thought of a sentence, smiled and said: "In simple terms, it is to draw the enemy into the field we are familiar with, and then use our rich experience and in-depth research to defeat them."

"Divinity is borrowing the power of 'Thanos'. It is more convenient than us in orbit. If they imitate the artificial planet, they will have better attack and defense than us. Are you afraid of being overtaken by them?" Fernando next to him Ever since Lucien "teased" about his "out of control reactor", he had a face on his face.

Lucien laughed and said: "If the church is another council, with its own arcane system, arcane points, arcane points and other things that encourage research, with hundreds or thousands of years of accumulation of arcane and magic knowledge, with In-depth research in many fields, such as macro and micro, has a very strong atmosphere of exploration and research, so I will not make this suggestion.”

Of course, this is not absolute. In the case of similar arcane foundations, this "Star Wars" method can also be used to transform the confrontation into an overall economic confrontation. , not the other way around.

"As for now, with the above 'foundations', I'm not worried at all that the church can catch up with us in the field of artificial planets. It's impossible in ten years, impossible in a hundred years, and impossible in a thousand years." Lucy En added, "Unless the church starts to establish its own arcane system, but in this way, it will no longer be completely dependent on faith. They who are also studying arcane arts will have no irreconcilable contradictions with us, and they can be integrated in Together."

"Their artificial planets may have relatively strong attack power, but they will not be able to play the role of orbital bombing until they can really play the role of 'Paradise Mountain', and our nuclear fission reactors may not be able to do so in a year or two." Success, and will not be inferior to them after miniaturization."

"You said it as if the church can only wait for death. Our future is bright." Douglas laughed.

Lucien let out a hey: "The future is bright, but the road is tortuous. In fact, in this regard, Mr. Speaker, you must have the same opinion as me, but you didn't specifically raise it. For example, arcane research All the papers are published publicly, and the church and other countries can see them as long as they are willing, but in terms of magic, there are only principles and ideas, and the specific structure must have the corresponding authority to be consulted and exchanged, so that they seem to be able to understand arcane arts and hope to catch up. But it will never catch up."

"I didn't think too much about it at the beginning. I formulated this system purely with ideas that they couldn't understand." Douglas laughed at himself very honestly, "In my opinion, without my own research and exploration, there is no long-term accumulation. , it is useless to read the thesis directly, so most of the clergy and powerful people from all over the world cannot obtain anything from our published arcane thesis. learning attitude."

Helen, who was listening, suddenly said: "Evans, you have spent a huge amount of money to install 'runaway reactors' on every artificial planet, so that the church cannot easily obtain it?"

"Yes, the easier it is to obtain, the less we will cherish it. They will doubt our real purpose. Therefore, we must let them go through hardships and pay a huge price. Only in this way can they be willing to spend more energy on obtaining it. To imitate and transform." Lucien shook his head, with a look of hatred, "Who knows that they have no fighting spirit at all, I originally hoped that they would exchange the life of a priest of the Holy Spirit for the secret of the artificial planet."

Douglas also sighed: "Then we have to find a way to give the church another 'chance'...."

He seemed to agree with Lucien's idea.

"How can we guarantee that the church will be willing to take risks to obtain an artificial planet, and will definitely focus on imitating and transforming it?" Fernando said cautiously.

"If they don't capture the artificial planet and study its secrets, then they will watch us gradually play the full role of the artificial planet, control the orbit, control the planet, and then be eliminated by the times, but this time will be relatively long, will There are some changes, and if they compete with us in this field, things will enter the track we are familiar with." Lucien replied with a serious expression.

Douglas smiled again: "Sure enough, the future is bright. No matter how the church chooses, failure cannot be avoided. This is the choice of the times, but..."

He sighed suddenly, and so did Lucien. He spit out a mouthful of non-existing gas in the airless universe, and said with emotion almost at the same time:

"God-like."

That's right, without a god-like existence who has mastered the mystery of immortality, why should the council go round and round to plot against the church?

"So the road is tortuous. Maybe at some point, the council will be wiped out by several gods. Maybe some of us will fall under the hands of gods forever before we see the victory." Lucien solemnly But he said without fear.

Douglas looked at the vast starry sky and said: "Although it is important to attack gods, no matter what, the development of the council must be based on the research of arcane arts and the application of magic, because our road to gods must and can only be built on them. superior."

Fernando and Helen nodded at the same time, agreeing with Douglas' point of view.

"Okay, so what kind of plan shall we make?" Douglas looked at Lucien and asked for his opinion.

Lucien thought for a while and said, "Maybe we can take advantage of this plan to catch hidden dangers within the council. Before the southern church withdrew from the four countries of the Straits and the coastal corridor in the north, there were many spies from the church in the council. Afterwards, the situation improved and this situation was basically eliminated. However, with Viken secretly revealing the mysteries of the god-like, I suspect that there are people in the council and the Church who understand it."

Some idioms were "invented" by Lucien long ago in "The Voice of Mystery", and Fernando and others will not have any difficulty in understanding them. In addition, Helen and Brooke have already joined Douglas, Fernando, Hathaway and Lucy En's research on the god-like path and the secret of immortality.

"Very good." Fernando gritted his teeth for this kind of spies, wishing he could wash them down with a storm.
