You are all my wings!

Moreover, she had already read through the magic books related to mechanical magic in the past few days.

"I've recently learned something new, and I can teach you another way to try."

Lyon laughed:

"The method is for you to use your mental power to mobilize the magic power I release. This is also your first step in cultivation. While nourishing your body and restraining your mental power, you will learn how to use your mental power."

High mental strength leads to higher precision and efficiency in manipulating magic, while high mental strength results in faster thinking.

The two interact and each plays a role.

Because he had already learned the perfect-level spirit-enchanting technique that Terena would master in the future, he was confident that he could teach her.

Previously, with limited energy and a focus on learning advanced magic in his four elements, he naturally wouldn't have had time to learn mechanical magic to teach her.

Now that Terena's talent has already been revealed, it's perfectly acceptable to appropriately help her research new types of magic more quickly.

Once the new magic is completed, he himself will benefit immensely.

Not only that, he also had to give Machiru a push to study life alchemy magic, which was a groundbreaking magic, but it was difficult to popularize, so its reputation in his previous life was not as great as that of new magic.

But the greatest significance of the life alchemy magic lies in unlocking the mystery of lifespan.

As far as Lyon knew, not all the gods in this world were immortal.

"Use your magic?"

A glint of light flashed in Terena's eyes:

"This seems interesting, but wouldn't it be a waste of your magic power?"

"It's okay, I don't have much else lately, but I have a lot of magic."

Lyon smiled slightly.

This is no joke. A magic power of 135 points is more than twice the limit of a sixth-tier spell. It can be used to cast more than thirty perfect intermediate spells in a short period of time, and it is more than enough to launch multiple superior spells.

Once you advance to the next tier and receive the buffs of a Tier 4 class, the cost of a Perfect Intermediate spell will likely be as simple as a basic spell, even easier than eating or drinking.

Especially since it's fire magic, with the added benefit of the powerful fifth-tier monster materials he previously used, it consumes even less.

Of course, if it were to be lent to Terena for use, it would indeed waste some of it dissipating into the air.

As he spoke, he reached out his hand in front of Terena and gently released a magical power with a faint, dazzling light.

"Try it, Terena. Use your mental power to sense it carefully and try to activate it."

Leon himself wasn't idle either. He released magic with one hand to Terena's side, while also practicing his Swift Shadow Slash combat technique with the other.

A rapid, slashing sound filled the air.

Strictly speaking, he now faces no obstacles on his path to the fourth tier, whether it be the class of elemental mage or phantom walker.

They also have materials from the powerful sixth-tier demonic creature, the Shadow Spider, to use as upgrade items for the Shadow Walker.

However, if he wants to successfully digest the materials from a powerful sixth-tier monster, it would be safer for him to further improve his physique and upgrade one more combat skill to the fifth tier.

It's also best to master combat skills.

He also has materials from a powerful fifth-tier monster, the Water-Swallowing Ape, which he can use to advance his elemental mage to the next rank. However, he is ambitious and naturally hopes to use materials from a powerful sixth-tier monster after mastering the perfect-grade superior level.

It's a pity there's no mode available right now, otherwise, if he could use the Deep Purification and Chance Mode, his efficiency in training combat skills would greatly increase.

It should be easy to complete the combat skill upgrade.

At the same time, that monster muscle resonance magic can further enhance physical strength.

Using sixth-tier powerful materials for upgrading ensures that there will be no mistakes.

Nearby, Mshifisu, having just entered a breathing technique state, could still hear the conversation between the two.

This aroused a sense of doubt and surprise in her heart.

Mental strength?

Could it be that Terena is a genius with special mental abilities?

No wonder she claimed to have been invested in by CLSA.

As for Lyon's so-called abundance of magic power, this made Msifisu secretly curious. Indeed, he had casually released several intermediate spells before, and he was always in complete control. He was not a third-tier... no, even a fifth-tier mage might not be able to do it with such ease.

So, just how much magic does he possess?

Driven by curiosity, Mshifisu became somewhat distracted during his training.

……

At the same time.

Deep within the Horshah Palace.

Inside a palace decorated in a serene yet magnificent style.

"Your Highness, are you really going to abandon the temporary siege of the Third Saintess and the aid to the First and Second Saintess?"

"The maid, Bigas, asked."

call out!call out!call out!

Ophimosa was practicing with her sword, a light sheen of sweat dripping from her smooth, glossy forehead.

"Yes, after all, I have already formed a temporary alliance with Britta."

"Is it really not because of the rumored connection to Lord Lyon?"

These words would normally be considered presumptuous, but since Bigas is Orpheus's chief steward, it's appropriate for him to be aware of such matters. These seemingly presumptuous remarks are often made between the two of them in private, so it's not a big deal.

"Haha, so what if it's related to him?"

Ophim Marceau admitted it outright.

As she spoke, her eyes seemed to gleam with a bright light, and her beauty radiated, captivating even Bigas, who was moved by Ophimaso's stunning beauty at that moment.

Despite having followed Ophimosa for many years, Bigas is still occasionally awestruck by Ophimosa's godlike beauty.

Bigas composed himself and said:

"No, it's just that I've recently heard that there seem to be quite a few young women around Lord Lyon, and yesterday a woman who claimed to be his cousin showed up."

"cousin?"

Ophimasso stopped.

Chapter 302 The Capital City Undercurrents

"Yes, my cousin, she's said to be very cute."

Bigas said that as Orpheus's maid and butler for many years, she didn't really like this suddenly appearing Leon Belon.

She believed that His Highness's association with this person was an insult to his reputation.

However, although she has her own stance, she doesn't spread rumors indiscriminately, which is why she has been trusted by Ophimasso for so many years.

“A cute cousin? That’s great. Lyon is very good-looking, so it’s not surprising that he has a good-looking relative.”

Ophimasso shrugged.

She is currently under house arrest by King Horshav IX, and can only learn about the outside world by listening to others.

Upon hearing this, Bigas sighed. Does His Highness have no concern whatsoever about Leon Belon's chaotic private life?

She was so worried last time, but now she seems relaxed.

"Your Highness, I suggest you keep a close eye on things. According to intelligence reports, this cousin is very clingy to Lord Lyon."

"I see."

Ophimosa nodded:

"Then please keep an eye out for me."

Although she said that, she clearly didn't care about this so-called cousin.

She's been feeling quite relaxed lately. Ever since Leon met with her father and explained his magic overload, she feels much more at ease.

Iris Magiru was spared for the time being, while Britta was excluded, which was a relatively acceptable outcome for her.

Seeing that Ophimosa didn't seem to care, Bigas could only change the subject:

"By the way, Your Highness, there is another important matter. The ambassadors of the six countries have reached preliminary results in their joint discussions on the future development of the underground city."

"So fast? What about the share?"

"We'll take 40% of the development share, the Elven Holy Land will take 40%, and the other five countries will take 20%."

"Hmm, the other five countries have no disputes?"

"There was a dispute, but this time we gave up a relatively large share to the Elven Holy Land. With the Elven Holy Land involved, they certainly couldn't refuse."

It is standard practice to relinquish profits to the elven holy land.

However, the reason why so much territory was ceded this time, as much as 40%, on par with their main developing country, was actually driven by Ophimaso. The purpose was to reduce disputes with other countries and to encourage the Holy Land of the Elves to send experts.

Legendary figures may not come, but surely a batch of strong sixth-tier pure-blooded elves will arrive, right?

Pureblood elves at level 6 are basically all-around warriors, with at least two of their four attributes—strength, constitution, magic, and agility—reaching the triple limit.

There are even cases where the four attributes reach three or four times the limit.

These top-tier experts are the main force and ballast for the subsequent development of the 41st to 50th underground floors.

Human kingdoms, at best, only have a few senior princes and dukes, and a few old border counts. They are likely not even as strong as the sixth-tier pure-blooded elves, and simply cannot organize enough forces for large-scale development.

The sixth-tier strength of short-lived species is different from that of long-lived species. For short-lived species, as long as two of their strength, constitution, magic, and agility reach the double limit, or a single attribute reaches the triple limit, or their characteristic strength is high enough, or they learn a legendary skill in advance, they can be considered as sixth-tier strength.

For example, the Sword King of Moron has reached twice the limit of strength, but not in other aspects, so he cannot be considered a strong sixth-tier character.

The term "strong" primarily refers to a horizontal comparison with one's own race.

To be stronger across races would require a super genius like Ophimasso, who can master combat skills across levels as easily as eating and drinking.

In addition, she possesses a terrifying physique that has accumulated over thousands of years by the Horxia royal family and contains boundless potential. If she can reach the sixth rank and gain some control over her second personality, she might just be able to turn the tables and become a legend.

"So, how many strong sixth-tier warriors did the Elven Holy Land agree to send?"

"They will only send one legendary figure and one strong sixth-tier hero."

"legend?"

Ophimaso was slightly shocked. The Holy Land of the Elves was actually so generous.

One legendary figure is worth a dozen or twenty strong sixth-tier individuals.

"It seems that the matter of the divine ruins has finally been exposed."

Ophimosa immediately realized this, and her handsome brows furrowed slightly.

"Most likely, but I've already investigated the source of the leak, and it's definitely not on our side; it's probably the Vatican."

"Begath said with certainty."

Ophimosa shook her head: "It may not be us and the Vatican, but perhaps it was the person who first gave me the information who leaked it."

"By the way, Your Highness, who did you get this information from?"

“A self-proclaimed legendary astrologer named Bai Shaqilai gave me a copy of the Divine Sea Scripture, which had partially deciphered its knowledge, through the Adventurers’ Guild. It was because of this that I volunteered to ask my father to suppress the previous monster uprising.”

Leon had asked her about this, but she was interrupted and didn't tell him the information.

"No wonder His Highness was in such a hurry at the time."

"By the way, which legend did the Holy Land of the Elves send this time?"

"He is the grandfather of our elven diplomat, Iris, named Tigervansch. He is said to be the only master of illusion magic in the elven holy land, known as 'Under the stars and moon, all things are real,' and is hailed as the grand master of elemental illusion magic."

Although the magic of the Elven Holy Land has a long history and is diverse, the tradition of illusion magic is indeed rare.

Normally, humans tend to have more magicians known for their illusion magic.

After all, once illusion magic is used well, its effectiveness against enemies increases exponentially.

Ophimosa was starting to have a headache; it seemed that it wouldn't be easy for her and Britta to join forces and take down the divine ruins.

If those people come and cause trouble under the guise of development, it will be a problem.
