A year later, in the Moon of Fire (829), an alchemy laboratory in the Tower of Babel.
On the walls, ceilings, and floors, magic patterns of different colors bloomed with bright or dim light, collectively forming a complex magic circle that extended into the void, completely enveloping the entire alchemy laboratory, preventing the slightest interference from the outside from coming in, and also eliminating bursts of brilliant and dazzling light.
The "Great Arcanist's Robe" on Lucian's body still looked like a long black dress, not in the style of an ancient magical empire, it was slightly inflated, and with the invisible wind constantly shaking, isolating the last harmful things from Lucian's body, and around it, the cognitive world interfered with reality, forming a vision of elemental light points and the vast starry sky, constantly devouring and merging tangible and intangible things from the outside world.
Although caution is Lucian's "usual attitude" when conducting magic or alchemy experiments, he has never been as cautious as he is now, because he had a problem with the blood, flesh, bones and wings of the "Dragon of Time and Radiance" Danissus when he raised the "Moonwatch" before, which not only failed to advance successfully, but was damaged, and he himself suffered a lot of injuries, and he took half a year to recuperate.
This time, Lucian was sure that he would not be harmed, and the "Moonwatch" would not be hit hard, but he could not guarantee that it would be able to upgrade it to a level four legendary item, making the thirteen legendary pinnacle items fourteen, and most importantly, the "Ancient Time Dragon" Danisos was not killed by the "Silver Moon", and the materials he could get were limited.
Lucian did not think of instigating the "Silver Moon" to keep the "Ancient Time Dragon" in captivity, and continuously provide time-space materials like beef cattle, because for his blood, flesh, bones and wings to meet the standards of legendary materials, he must integrate at least one-third of his soul and life essence, and even if it can be restored, it is an unusually long process.
As far as Lucian knew, after being traumatized by the "Silver Moon" and stripped of part of his body, the "Dragon of Time and Radiance" Danissos had not regained the strength of the peak of the legend until now, and he might have to recuperate for a few years, if he wanted to return to an intact state, it would take at least two or three hundred years.
Because of this, Lucian was so cautious about this alchemical experiment to improve the "moon clock", and even Natasha did not have permission to enter the laboratory - her "destructive power" to the laboratory had already made Lucian have to pay attention to it.
On the "Alchemy Platform", the clear blood like rice grains was manipulated by Lucian's spiritual power, and a strange magic circle was carved on the "stone slab" made of special materials.
It is very complicated at a rough view, and magicians below the legend will be dizzy just by witnessing it, and their mental power will pass rapidly, falling into a state of nausea and headache, but if they have enough mental strength and look closely, they will find that this magic circle contains the most essential and simplest "mystery", which makes each complex part easily decomposed into the most simple patterns - patterns combined with unique patterns.
It's like no matter how complex a word is, it is still composed of those letters, as long as you understand the rules between them, you can easily remember this word.
Lucian painted very slowly, with the body of a great knight, sweat also leaked out from his forehead, but this was the highest level alchemy laboratory, and the sweat dissipated and decomposed on its own before it took shape.
After a long time, Lucian completed the last line, and suddenly, the magic circle vibrated slightly, and the entire alchemy laboratory also vibrated, as if there were inexplicable space-time fluctuations.
When everything calmed down, Lucian disposed of the remaining wings and flesh pieces separately and placed them on the four tips of the magic circle.
Then, the exquisite silver and white "moon clock" flew out of Lucian's arms and fell into the center of the magic circle, with silver scales like water time.
Affected by this, the lines of the magic circle seemed to come to life, twisting and climbing onto the "moon clock", connecting with its hour, minute, and second hands, and connecting with the constellation symbols (time marks) made of its gemstones.
During this process, Lucian's eyes did not blink, and he concentrated on sensing the docking, carefully adjusting anything that did not meet the precise range with mental strength, and adjusting it before the docking was completed.
Huh, Lucian exhaled softly, looking at the magic circle that seemed to extend from the "moon clock" instead of being engraved in advance, his heart was half relaxed, the first two steps were done, and the latter grasp was relatively large.
Condensing his spirit again, Lucian opened the alchemy platform, and suddenly, the energy of the entire magic tower frantically rushed towards the magic circle in the center, causing it to be completely shrouded in silver-white light, and a faint "mist" rose from it.
The energy extraction was so exaggerated that the crystal lamps of the entire magic tower went out, and the outer defenses naturally collapsed, and "Tower Spirit" Pinocchio had to turn on the backup energy pool.
A minute later, the spare energy was also used up, but the silver-white light seemed to be a little bit short of penetrating into the "moon clock", at this time, Lucian stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the alchemy platform, using his body as a medium to directly pour his majestic spiritual power into it.
Suddenly, a brilliant but not dazzling light burst out, filling the entire alchemy laboratory.
Tick tick tick...... All the clocks hanging in the Magic Tower turned their hands quickly, as if they were in a race, and Natasha, who was practicing swordsmanship against the elemental planets in the "Atomic Universe", suddenly felt the rapid passage of time, as if she was inevitably heading towards the end.
"Successful?" Natasha raised her head, her beautiful silver-purple eyes looking in the direction of the Tower of Babel, since she was promoted to a second-order epic knight, the change in the environment had never given her such a strong feeling.
With a click, everything returned to normal, but there was still a faint sense of vicissitudes in Lucian's alchemy laboratory.
Lucian looked at the "Moonwatch" lying quietly on the alchemy platform, and felt that its brilliance had become a little restrained, revealing a cold and indifferent atmosphere, and added the same silver and white button next to the "Advanced Time Stop" button.
"Successful?" Lucian also wondered, it was a vision of ordinary legendary items being promoted to the peak before? Just like a legendary powerhouse advancing to the peak?
Picking up the "Moonwatch", Lucian reached into his spiritual power and felt a little kind of softness.
After a long time, Lucian put the "Moontimer" back into the pocket of his vest, with a satisfied smile on his face, his exclusive legendary item has indeed become the fourteenth legendary pinnacle item, and there is an additional active ability - "Cast Acceleration"!
This is very similar to Danessos' unique talent, and it can also double the speed of legendary magic casting!
However, Danissos can be cast without restrictions, while Lucian can only use it three times a day, each lasting half the time of Danessus, which is the normal time to cast a legendary magic.
Even so, even if the effects of "Advanced Time Stop" and "Gravitational Collapse" only reach the peak level of legends, the number of times has not changed, it is still five times, Lucian is very satisfied, if this ability is used well, it is definitely the key to victory!
Natasha in the "Atomic Universe" also had a smile on her face, and then shared Lucian's joy through electromagnetic messaging, but she did not turn back to the Tower of Babel because of this, and still stayed here to be tempered, even for the second-order epic knights, such tempering is difficult to have a good effect.
This is because the recent undercurrent of the situation has made her vigilant and cautious, so she seizes every free time to improve herself.
In the past year, the overall situation in the world has not changed much, and it has remained relatively stable, but this is only the opinion of ordinary people and ordinary magicians, in the eyes of Lucian and Natasha, the world's top legendary powerhouses, the undercurrent under the calm sea has long appeared, and it is shocking.
Whether it was the integrated Dark Council, or the Southern Church, or the Northern Church, they all tacitly did not fight each other, but quietly developed towards those false god kingdoms in the north of the Dark Mountains, slowly but resolutely devouring them, causing the control of these countries to shrink significantly.
The integration of the "Lord of Hell" with the Endless Ocean forces has achieved certain results even if it is strongly interfered with by the Magic Council and the Elven Court.
…………
The sky is blue, Lucian is on the road to the "Atomic Institute", and today is the day when Heidi, Chely, Lovi and Ophelia report on the progress of "artificial intelligence" research.
In the past year, most magicians have continued to digest the knowledge of quantum theory, while the arcanists in the "Atomic Research Institute" who have been studying this field for a long time have begun to transform their knowledge into their own power.
Even "apprentice-level assistants" such as Lowe have some levels of fourth, fifth, and fifth rings.
Suddenly, Lucian felt the floor under his feet trembling slightly, not the effect of the explosion, but the "joy" of the "City in the Sky".
What's going on? Lucian's spirit moved, and he flashed directly to the core of the "Sky City" and saw the teacher with smiling eyes.
"Haha, I finally got a stable fission reactor!" Fernando laughed smugly, his half-white hair a little messy.
