Chapter 797: Chapter 674: The Power to Modify Rules and the Exposed Plot

By the time the Eternal Star reached its third aphelion, three years had already flown by.

In the first two years, Lynn’s research focused on the microscopic and dimensional levels, and he could now directly parse and mimic quark-level fundamental particles, improving his control over the four fundamental forces to a new level.

In the last year, Lynn spent his time on the Olympic Mathematics Divine Position.

This was fundamental to him becoming a chief deity and the key to deciphering the laws of the universe. Both Divine Arts and Magic were applications of cosmic laws, and understanding what these laws were and how they formed was one of the ultimate questions of the universe.

At this time, Lynn was naturally unable to provide an answer, but having touched upon a higher realm, he had vaguely grasped some edges and acquired certain abilities to modify the rules.

This power was undoubtedly terrifying, as any change to the laws of the universe itself would render both science and magic completely ineffective!

For instance, the direction of electromagnetic force follows the left-hand rule–where if the left hand is spread out and placed in a magnetic field, with magnetic lines of force perpendicularly entering the palm and the fingers pointing in the direction of the electric current, the direction of the thumb indicates the direction of conductor movement.

If Lynn were to reverse the entire rule to the right-hand rule, then the battleships of geometrical civilizations using magnetic fields to accelerate proton cannons for attack would end up blowing themselves up!

However, this modification wasn’t omnipotent; firstly, it could only affect the area under his own divine domain, or it had to be applied to a specific limited area; secondly, it had to comply with the law of conservation of energy.

Energy cannot be created out of nothing, only transformed, and even Magic Power, originating from a higher dimension, was no exception.

Deep in thought, a message from the Magic Network suddenly pulled him from his speculation and reflections on the rules.

It was now time to return to the vast universe!

…

At the same moment, in the universe, within Galaxy No. 0600.

A group of researchers were extremely tense as they conducted final adjustments on the instruments. This gigantic energy state transformation device, covering more than ten thousand square kilometers, stored half of the antimatter elements in the entire star district. Any small error could blow up the entire planet in the universe and possibly even affect other planets within the galaxy.

After spending seventeen atomic hours on checks and adjustments and confirming everything was normal, researcher Yita allowed the already-prepared one hundred thousand geometrical beings to enter for the transformation of carbon-based life forms into energy states.

The entire process would take about six atomic hours, and all researchers anxiously awaited, for this experiment didn’t have the approval of the Disc Council and was conducted secretly with the tacit consent of the leader, Gerta.

If successful, they could use this achievement to persuade the Disc Council, becoming champions who propelled a huge leap in their civilization and possibly even becoming members of the Disc leadership.

If it failed, they were very likely to face charges and a trial.

Paradise and hell were only a moment apart.

However, taking some risks seemed necessary to Yita, as they weren’t the only ones secretly researching how to perform large-scale energy state transformations.

The competition was fierce.

Six atomic hours slowly passed in a tense watch over the data. Seeing that the final stage of energy plasticity also evinced no oversights, all the researchers present heaved a sigh of relief.

“The results are out, everything is normal! Of the first batch of one hundred thousand, ninety-five thousand three hundred people have successfully ascended. Our calculations were spot on, the success rate exceeded ninety-five percent!” exclaimed an assistant, utterly exhilarated.

This was without a doubt a tremendous success, indicating that the plan to elevate their race through energy ascension and advance to higher-dimensional life forms was absolutely feasible!

They could establish one or even several large energy state transformation devices in each star district, and in no more than a hundred years, their entire civilization would be completely transformed into a true energy life civilization!

Chief researcher Yita was equally thrilled.

A ninety-five percent probability was very high and ready for direct application, even prompting him to consider immediate transformation.

As a researcher of carbon-based life form energy state transformation, Yita naturally was a staunch supporter of ascension theory, and of course, fervent about undergoing transformation.

Three hundred years ago, the geometrical civilization had thoroughly researched carbon-based life form genetic transformation; the limits were set there, with no space for further progress, and they needed to expand into new paths.

Becoming an energy life form had too many benefits: nearly ten thousand years of lifespan, the ability to survive in the universe without protective shields, and most crucially, a rate of thought no longer limited by the physical body!

But Yita’s lifespan was long, and he was more careful with his life than others. Now, having achieved a significant accomplishment and even having the chance to become one of the Disc leaders, he hesitated without absolute certainty.

“For now, let’s send this good news to the leader,” Yita temporarily suppressed the idea of immediate transformation and straightforwardly ordered.

Just then, the doors of the research institute burst open hurriedly. A square-shaped researcher, shimmering with erratic lights, rushed in and urgently reported.

“Lord Yita, we’ve just traced the direction of the Magic Power signal.”

“How serendipitous!” already overjoyed by the success of the experiment, Yita became even happier.

This was truly a double celebration!

During previous experiments with Magic Power characteristics, Yita had found that when Magic Power was transformed into matter, a portion of it would automatically enter the Sea of Quanta and then vanish without a trace. They tried many methods, but it was difficult to counter this loss.

Curious about where this dissipating Magic Power went to in the Sea of Quanta and where it ultimately went, Yita had always been conducting related research.

Yita suspected that Magic Power, similar to electrons, was a whole at a higher dimension, and during its transformation, parts of it would be attracted back to their origin.

The intruding researcher was very urgent, transmitting messages to Yita using specific electromagnetic waves, interrupting his reverie.

“Lord Yita, something isn’t right. We’ve found the exact coordinates… about three hundred light-years to the southwest!”

“That close?” Upon hearing this, Yita was incredibly surprised, then suddenly thought of something, and his expression drastically changed.

Three hundred light-years to the southwest–that was exactly where the territories of the Magic Empire were located, wasn’t it?

Realizing this, Yita immediately felt a bone-chilling gloom pervade his heart…
