Chapter 334: Lynn: The True Unquenchable Flame - Hellfire—Chlorine Trifluoride!

Lynn ventured deep into the manor on his own, instructing Elok and the others, as well as the estate's servants and guards, not to disturb him. With a silent incantation in his mind, he began:

"071, display my current status."

?Designated target: Lynn

Physical activity: High

Magic scale: 485

Mental strength rating: Grand Wizard (Fourth Circle)

Spell slots: [White Phosphorus - Flame Touch], [Liquid Nitrogen - Frost Domain], [Minor - Magic Protection], [Wizard Shield], [Magic Barrier], [Minor - Deflection Field]...

Fourth Circle: [Spatial Waves], [Iron Sand Storm], [Electromagnetic Cannon (3x supersonic)], [Deflection Field], [Advanced Projection], [Vacuum Domain], [Sluggish Barrier].

Magic domain users: 43

...]

Upon ascending to the rank of Grand Wizard, Lynn discovered his magical power had increased roughly fivefold from its original state. His mental prowess had grown in tandem, enhancing his control over elements by a significant degree.

However, compared to other Grand Wizards, he held only seven variations of fourth circle magic, a mere handful in comparison.

Among these, vacuum magic and the sluggish barrier were adaptations of his inherent domain, commonly wielded by most Grand Wizards.

The rest of his repertoire included spatial waves, a high-energy armor-piercing spell with high magical consumption and effective at short to medium range.

The electromagnetic cannon served to compensate for his lack of long-range combat capabilities, boasting formidable power and speed, albeit requiring a brief preparation time.

Yet, in the realm of Grand Wizard battles, he lacked a wide-ranging, swift-deploying spell for suppressing opponents.

The fourth circle spell, Iron Sand Storm, was impressive, especially when enhanced with thunder magic, ranking high among fourth circle spells. Still, it failed to satisfy Lynn.

Before he became a Grand Wizard, this position had been solely under the command of White Phosphorus Flames.

For low-circle wizards incapable of conjuring vacuum domains and bishops, white phosphorus was akin to a nightmare. Lynn intended to create something to replace it—a substance terrifying enough to make even the most notorious dark wizards hesitate: Chlorine Trifluoride!

If anything could truly earn the title of Hellfire, while white phosphorus could barely scrape by, Chlorine Trifluoride deserved it wholeheartedly!

This toxic, highly corrosive inorganic compound had a boiling point of 11.3? and a melting point of -76.3?. At room temperature, it existed as a colorless gas, turning into a green liquid when cooled. Primarily used in aviation rocket fuel, nuclear fuel processing, and post-treatment...

In itself non-combustible, it fiercely reacted with substances...

In some ways, Chlorine Trifluoride was an upgraded version of white phosphorus, possessing many of the latter's traits but significantly stronger and more terrifying!

While white phosphorus could be suppressed by water and rendered non-flammable under low temperatures until reignited upon warming, Chlorine Trifluoride rendered such measures futile. It could burn metals, sturdy concrete, and even sand and rocks!

Yes, it would ignite instantly, not slowly corrode like white phosphorus...

Encountering water would trigger an explosion at ultra-high temperatures!

It defied reason!

Due to fluorine and chlorine's extremely electronegative nature, once combined, they aggressively plundered nearby electrons!

As elements comprise atomic nuclei and electrons, theoretically, any substance could become Chlorine Trifluoride's fuel.

This was the true unquenchable flame and hellfire...

Once it ignited in a laboratory, the only hope lay in the immediate discovery and swift retreat, as there was no effective way to extinguish it!

Previously, Lynn had refrained from creating it due to its extreme instability, risking uncontrollable combustion that could lead to his demise.

This explained why Chlorine Trifluoride, despite its immense power, hadn't been weaponized to dominate battlefields. Many throughout history attempted this but invariably faced disastrous transportation issues—even when secured within specially treated metal containers, it was still not foolproof!

However, now that Lynn had ascended to Grand Wizard, wielding greater control over magic and elements, he dared to attempt harnessing this highly dangerous compound.

He summoned all the information about Chlorine Trifluoride from his mind's database. Even the chemical equation hinted at its nature:

Cl2 + 3F2 = 2ClF3!

After carefully reviewing the red-marked precautions, Lynn closed his eyes and commenced the complex synthesis of elements.

Magical energy surged within his sphere, creating a vacuum zone to prevent Chlorine Trifluoride from losing control—the only method to contain it—avoiding contact with other substances!

Interestingly, it didn't require oxygen to ignite; in a vacuum, it could still burn, as it fundamentally plundered electrons...

Within the defined vacuum zone, Lynn uncorked two containers storing fluorine and chlorine elements.

Swiftly, they emanated and, under his mental control, floated within the zone.

With utmost care, Lynn forcibly confined all elements within a space the size of his palm, allowing them to interact and collide.

As a Grand Wizard, precise control over a single element was beyond his capabilities. He could only guide them directionally or slow their movements with magic, employing mental force.

Both the creation of a vacuum zone and the controlled interaction and collision of elements consumed vast amounts of magical and mental energy.

Had Lynn remained a Third Circle Wizard, within mere seconds, he'd have faced mental exhaustion. Fortunately, having completed his ascension, this level of expenditure was manageable.

Nevertheless, it took Lynn an entire afternoon and multiple attempts before he finally synthesized what he desired.

A peculiar element materialized in Lynn's palm, with four elements tightly bonded, forming a T-shape with a short bond and two long bonds...

This was the one of the most perilous compounds—a Chlorine Trifluoride!
