Chapter 668

Inside the magic hall on the top floor of Babel…

The deep black, heavy bricks, reflecting the light of the elemental planets outside, presented a layer of weird, flowing colors . The silver lines made of unknown materials the center gave off a cubic feeling, as if quite a few planes were changing nonstop there, disrupting the normal flow of time and space .

Standing at the center of the magic circle, Lucien took out his delicate, complicated pocket watch and checked the time, before he turned around and looked at the flashing sword in the Atomic Universe outside of the window .

It had been a month since he submitted ‘Lucien equation’ that integrated the special theory of relativity and quantum mechanics . He had stabilized himself on level three of legendary . Thanks to him, Natasha was able to see the mysteries of the generation and destruction of matters, and she was now closer and closer to the legendary domain . She was making her final preparations for her breakthrough .

Therefore, Lucien did not tell Natasha when he set up the magic circle for space jump in case she got distracted . He simply prepared it himself in silence .

“Thankfully, I only went to the space nearby, instead of searching for planets through super-remote space jumps or reaching the fixed orbits . Otherwise, it would’ve taken much longer for me to finish the preparation…” Lucien put the pocket watch inside the pocket of his waistcoat behind his double-breasted suit, while he remarked with mixed feelings .

It was the first time he had prepared for a space jump aiming for outer space instead of somewhere within this world . He had met a lot of difficulties, but thankfully, his purpose was different from that of regular space jumps . He did not have a high demand on precision, and the distance was within one year . He merely intended to complete a certain experiment in space . That was why he had finished the preparations so quickly .

It must be noted that Douglas and Oliver often had to spend two to three times that on the preparation for a super-remote space jump when they searched for planets . As for an orbit jump that demanded a high precision, it was not a big deal for Douglas, but he would have to spend months practicing it .

“However, after the experience this time, I have a deeper understanding about time and space . It will be much easier for me to establish similar space jump circles in the future…” Lucien cleaned his bow-tie . The silver lines around him were enshrouded by the dazzling brilliance, and the whole magic tower began to absorb the power of the demiplane .

Light was gathered into a clear, vast shield, before it collapsed abruptly with Lucien as the center .

Lucien felt sometimes heavy and sometimes light . Curves of space were changing all the time . The defense he cast on himself with ‘Space Staff’ was barraged and destroyed again and again .

After a long time, Lucien suddenly felt that he completely lost his weight . Floating in the dark void, he found countless rays with fatal curses surging at himself .

“Elemental Protection” As Lucien’s strange and abstruse voice vibrated and influenced the space around him, colorful spots of light immediately surfaced . They were gathered into a translucent layer of defense in mysterious trajectories, blocking the dangerous rays in time .

Taking a breath in relief, Lucien knew that he had successfully reached space . He was now exposed to the cosmic rays that contained many amazing particles .

Suddenly, Lucien’s face changed . He chanted again inside the shield of ‘Elemental Protection’, “Space Staff!”

Some of the cosmic rays had ignored ‘Elemental Protection’ and penetrated through it!

Ripples of light gathered into a watery staff in Lucien’s hands . He pointed it slightly, and the space around it was twisted . The few strange cosmic rays brushed past him at a close distance .

“This place is really full of dangers…” Lucien was unclear whether or not those rays would damage his body and his soul, but he dared not be careless .

He came to the vast space not to search for the traces that implied the existence of planets, but to complete the discovery of ‘positron’ (antielectron), so that his legendary spell, ‘Positive Electron Cannon’, would be intact and carry out the maximal power .

antiparticles were opposed to particles, and the antimatter they were made of were opposed to matters . When they encountered each other, they would collide and obliterate each other, releasing horrifying energy . According to the mass-energy formula, the efficiency of energy release in such a reaction far exceeded that in a fusion . As a result, the antimatter of a moderate weight was enough to trigger an unbelievably destructive effect . It wouldn’t take a lot of antimatter for the whole world to be destroyed by them .

Therefore, the ‘Positive Electron Cannon’ (or the antimatter cannon, to be more exact) based on such a mechanism was absolutely Lucien’s most powerful attack spell targeting individuals . When it was faced with most defenses, it could ‘obliterate’ both the defenses and the people behind them .

Since it would take a while longer for him to complete ‘Snow Goddess’s Forgiveness’ based on ‘Snow Goddess’s Anger’, Lucien would certainly not disrespect his life security . Therefore, he had come to space searching for ‘antielectrons’ as early as possible!

After throwing out the alchemical device, Lucien performed magic, allowing the cosmic rays to pass through the electromagnetic field in it, while he observed the deviation .

It was a mission where patience was tested, because he had to find the trace he wanted from its millions of peers . Also, it was possible that ‘antielectrons’ were not around at all .

Days went by, and Lucien changed quite a few different locations .

The traces of deviation appeared inside the cloud room . Lucien identified and calculated them attentively . Suddenly, he felt something and blinked after clutching his alchemical device . Then, a stone the size of a hill crashed into the spot he had been at from the darkness at an unimaginably high speed .

“An asteroid…” Lucien thought to himself . What Mr . President and the other arcanists could not find was the regular planets . Such asteroids which wandered the universe, on the other hand, had been discovered now and then . They were one of the hazards in space .

Shaking his hands, Lucien did not pay any more attention to it . He brought out his crystal ball and confirmed the situation with astrology, before he continued his experiment .

A beautiful trajectory was gathered inside the cloud room, whose familiar arc and opposite direction were so warm and lovely in Lucien’s eyes!

It was a positive electron!

The starry sky that represented the real world arrived illusionary again, adding more complicated magic patterns to Lucien’s cognitive world . They were soon connected into a whole .

After a long time, Lucien, who was floating in the vacuum, extended his right hand after chanting the long, esoteric spell:

“Positive Electron Cannon!”

Countless inexplicable things were gathered . A pillar of light that was mixed with the colors of illusionary fire suddenly expanded and surged out, hitting another asteroid that was passing by .

The asteroid was even more intimidating and behemothic than the one just now, but it burst out the brilliance as dazzling as that of stars after it was hit by Lucien’s ‘Positive Electron Cannon’ . The terrifying rays surged out .

After a short while, everything died down . There wasn’t the slightest trace of any asteroid on the spot . It had been completely obliterated in space .

Lucien nodded at such great power . He activated the space-time landmark on himself . With brilliant stars glowing around him, he disappeared .

After another long time, the sight before Lucien’s eyes became clear . He had returned to the top floor of Babel!

Taking out the Moon Timer, Lucien thought deeply, “A curvature voyage? A wormhole? A journey through the higher dimensions?”

Subtracting the twenty days he spent on his experiment, he calculated the time cost during the space jump, hoping to figure out its mysteries .

Suddenly, Lucien sensed something . He turned his eyes out of the window, only to discover that a silver sword flashed with the illusionary air that could chop everything .

After the flash, an elemental planet fell into two halves abruptly, before it was reduced into countless pieces by the spreading gaps .

An intense quake suddenly happened inside the Atomic Universe . As if a source of destruction was emitting infinite powerful flashes at the center, the elemental planets split one after another, and the stars were all extinguished . It seemed that the end of this universe had come!

Lucien curled his lips, genuinely delighted . He summoned his spiritual power and restored everything inside the Atomic Universe back to normal .

A tall figure in silver armor stepped in from the window, with uncontrollable excitement on her face . “Lucien, I am now a legend!”

“I knew that this day would come, but I didn’t know that it would come so soon . ” Lucien smiled at Natasha .

Natasha paced back and forth happily, but she chuckled mischievously in her good mood . “So, you will listen to me tonight . ”

Lucien raised his eyebrow . “You said before that I should encourage and comfort you by listening to you because it was difficult to become a legend, and since it made sense to me, I didn’t object to it . But why am I still listening to you now that you’ve already made the breakthrough?”

Natasha said solemnly, “Are you not happy for me after my successful breakthrough? This is much more meaningful than birthdays and calls for celebration!”

“…You are always ‘reasonable’ . ” Lucien shook his head in amusement .

Natasha held her head high proudly . “Of course, I am the fairest of all!”

A few days later, an emergency meeting was held in the Highest Council .

Inside the conference, the ambiance did not become weird because of Lucien’s explanation with the observer effect . Both Douglas and Fernando were seniors who had seen too many debates, and Lucien was also a considerate gentleman . The academic argument would not be extended into their regular relation, particularly when they had only speculations, unlike what happened when Brook conclusively proved the wave theory and overthrew the particle theory with the double-slit experiment, laying a solid foundation for the victory of the second War between Wave and Particle .

Solemnly, Douglas said, “The elvish queen of the Stroop forest wrote me a letter . ”

“A letter?” Asked Oliver, finding it strange . A top legend wrote a letter for communication? It was not like she couldn’t hear Fernando’s roar!

Douglas nodded . “Because it’s an official letter asking for help . ”

Hearing his words, all the members of the Highest Council in the meeting became serious, because the elves were among the most important allies of the Congress .

Douglas went on . “Aglaea, the elvish queen, discovered that part of the elves had been corrupted . Even the Elvish Tree had been polluted for unknown reasons . As for the druid elders, some of the members went missing, too . Since she needed to control the elvish tree, and the whole thing was rather weird, she asked us for help, hoping that we could dispatch one or two legendary sorcerers to aid her . After all, magic can be very useful in certain aspects . ”

He looked around . “Who is willing to go?”

After a brief silence, Lucien raised his hand . “I happen to be free . ”

He had already advanced into level three of legendary, but the Moon Timer, his unique legendary item, required more materials to catch up with his current level . The space-time legendary materials were so rare that one could hardly meet them . Therefore, he might as well try his luck among the elves who had a history of hundreds of thousands of years .
