I Pioneered Scientific Magic

Chapter 382: The Macroscopic is Merely the Surface, the Microscopic is the Essence!

The discussion about legends didn't last long. Due to the lack of information, Lynn didn't dare delve too deeply into this topic and swiftly changed the subject.

"Based on my speculation, Aila might have abandoned her physical form and exists in an energy body..."

Within Lynn's previous theories on magic, there had been discussions about the distinction between energy and mass. Herlram and others were familiar with these terms.

"Do you mean she abandoned her physical form to exist as a soul?" Victorio, stroking his long beard, pondered.

At that moment, he realized the similarity between Bohr and others and the pseudo-deity. Their bodies emitted an unceasing force as if capable of distorting spacetime by merely standing there.

However, there were differences. Aila felt like a powerful convergence of divine magic, while Bohr resembled the stars they had just witnessed.

Victorio speculated that the soul might also be a form of energy.

At the level of grand wizards, souls could detach from the body and remain in the external world for extended periods, albeit still susceptible to certain damage. Like an exposed person in bitter cold, they might eventually succumb, but whether legendary soul entities could exist eternally without the body remained unknown.

"No, it's more than that." Lynn shook their head, refuting Victorio's speculation. If that were the case, the AI surely would have provided hints.

After all, the soul entity 071 had been absorbed and recorded in the database.

If it wasn't a soul entity, then what could it be?

Everyone present fell into contemplation...

"If possible, you might consider capturing a legendary clergy member of the Holy Church for thorough study. Who knows what insights that might yield," Lynn, controlling Victorio, suggested using Bohr's abilities.

This was the first thought that popped into Lynn's mind when the AI reminded them that Aila and Edweil's spiritual and life levels surpassed grand wizards! Capturing and studying both crossed their mind, but Aila's immense power made it tempting yet unfeasible, so they shifted focus to lower-tier legendary clergy members.

Victorio couldn't help but feel helpless at Lynn's suggestion. Legendary clergy members were high-ranking within the church, possessing immense strength. Defeating them wasn't easy, let alone capturing them for study.

Coming from Lynn, it sounded as casual as eating and drinking!

Unconcerned, after planting the idea of "capture and study" into Herlram and others' minds, Lynn controlled Victorio to speak again. "Aila has a high mastery of atomic levels. It won't be easy to overcome her from that perspective, but you might explore strategies from a more microscopic level to defeat her!"

"The macroscopic is merely the surface, the microscopic is the essence. The true path of legends might be hidden within..."

"Macroscopic... microscopic..." Herlram murmured softly.

After moments of contemplation from Aurora and Victorio, as they were about to inquire further, bright, intense light swiftly descended, plunging the entire space back into profound darkness.

With time accelerated a millionfold, the light from the supernova explosion had vanished. Harof wore a regretful expression, fully aware of what this meant.

As expected, a majestic yet aged voice resounded among them the next moment.

"Let this discussion session come to an end!"

It was none other than Einstein who spoke, and immediately, the entire cosmos violently trembled, expelling Harof and the others.

...

At precisely midnight, Harof, Aurora, and Victorio broke free from the realm of magic. Their faces were filled with confusion, awe, and bewilderment, unable to shake off the colossal amount of information from the discussion.

"It seems your prior warnings were correct, Harof. This Society of Mystical Arts indeed demands careful consideration," Victorio spoke with a grave expression.

Even before entering the realm of magic, Victorio had already held these legendary wizards in high regard. However, after this exchange, his fearful expression only intensified.

Especially Bohr, who discerned their true nature at a glance... their power was unfathomable.

"I did warn you to be more cautious!" Harof said with a touch of helplessness. After a pause, he continued, "What about the elements they mentioned... the internal structure of atoms, what are your thoughts?"

"Though there's no solid evidence yet, the possibility does exist," Aurora agreed.

There were elements smaller than the basic atoms, like lightning elements, light elements, and those elemental specters. They couldn't perceive them previously, so the existence of these elements remained uncertain.

However, Anthony's creation of thunder magic confirmed the reality of lightning elements and their manipulation by wizards. This meant that basic elements weren't the smallest known substances.

With this in mind, Aurora suggested, "We should gather Althok's notes. They might prove useful in studying the microscopic realm."

Harof and Victorio nodded. If the microscopic realm held the key to ascending to legendary status or slaying 'deities,' then their efforts needed to focus there. As for those elemental specters... a solution would eventually emerge.

Every 'legendary' power was immensely valuable...

The Holy Church openly possessed five legends, while the Wizard Council, even counting the crazed Althok, only had four legendary wizards. They lacked not only top-tier power but also high-end combat capability.

"And the elemental hierarchy chart—we should prioritize that too!" Victorio added. It was the foundation of the entire magic system.

He estimated that the Society of Mystical Arts pursued an elite path. Though each member was formidable, their numbers likely weren't extensive.

Now that they knew the method of measuring elemental mass, the only thing left was implementation.

With combined efforts, perhaps they could complete this hierarchy chart faster than the Society of Mystical Arts and even explore a brand-new path to legendhood!
