You are all my wings!

Therefore, he was careful not to reveal that he possessed light and holy magic.

The former's light-based healing spell consists of nine magical images, and is known as the most difficult healing spell at the beginner level. Moreover, he has already mastered 99% of Iris's skill.

If the other party is going to teach you life-related magic, then there will most likely be similar magical imagery in it.

You can immediately activate multiple modes and quickly learn by analogy.

Furthermore, the Holy Invocation spells of the Holy system also have eight magical images. Since I already have a perfect mastery of Britta's spells, my efficiency in learning related spells will not be low.

The opponent is a demigod-level divine species, an apostle of heaven. In addition to being born with life-type and selection-type characteristics, their skillful manipulation of divine power must also indicate that they have mastered divine power magic.

The magical imagery of Divine Might Magic and Holy Magic is somewhat related, so they can be applied to each other to a certain extent.

It's a pity that he hasn't completed the mission related to Machiru yet, otherwise he could have mastered the Divine Might Magic and wouldn't be afraid of the Forest Apostles' test.

He used his shadow properties to create tentacles, broke off a rock, and placed it in his hand. With a slight manipulation of his magic, he activated the alchemical spell of turning stone into gold.

With a hiss, the rock slowly dissolved, part of it breaking down into finer powder, while the rest turned into black iron fragments that fused together into a smooth, black mass, demonstrating an extremely high level of magical control and skill.

"Your Excellency, this is my magic of turning lead into gold."

The Forest Apostle was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Lyon's fourth profession was actually this.

The first three are rare professions, so why isn't the fourth one?

If Leon were a non-professional learning other magic systems, his technique would certainly not be as smooth as it is now.

She was unaware that under the current two modes, even other types of magic were extremely easy to control, so she quickly dismissed any doubts.

"In that case, I will teach you a magic technique that was almost lost in our time."

She pondered for a moment, then raised her hand, and a subtle divine light quietly gathered on her slender index finger.

This divine light resembled a shimmering, flowing stream, rippling and dazzling, with a mysterious, shimmering emerald hue in the center—truly wondrous.

As the divine light flashed, the surrounding area was instantly filled with an inconceivable vitality.

Lyon only stood on the periphery for a short while before he noticed that his recently broken bones were showing signs of recovery, even more miraculous than the previous Holy Relic Spring Diagram.

His eyes flickered slightly; even with his extensive experiences from his past life, he still couldn't recognize the magic.

It's like healing magic, but clearly more complex and with more profound effects; it's obviously not just about healing.

"This is the prototype of the Divine Light of Life, essentially a simplified version of Apostle-level magic."

The Forest Apostle said calmly:

"If it weren't for the changing times, you, an insect, would never have had the chance to learn this kind of magic."

Apostle-level magic?

Could it be that in the classification of forest apostles, above demigods, there is an apostle level?

Although he had completed all four parts in his previous life, he only reached the peak of demigod status and had never even heard of apostle-level magic.

So this is the fundamental reason why the Forest Apostles crushed the fourth and fifth epics like swatting mosquitoes.

After all, although Moriarty and Helvie are young, they are geniuses who have a history of fighting against demigods.

But they were powerless against the forest apostles.

Or does this statement have another subtext, referring to a different consensus among the Apostles of Heaven regarding the powerful magic they each possess?

That is, below the gods there are only demigods, but a demigod who has mastered apostle-level magic, although unable to become a god, is far more powerful than an ordinary demigod.

Lyon's heart skipped a beat, and he asked:

"Your Excellency, were there other wise celestial apostles like yourself in ancient times?"

The forest apostle did not answer; instead, magical images began to materialize in its palm.

This is a skill that can be mastered at the legendary level and above, allowing one to materialize magical images from the mind into reality, bringing them to life.

A series of magical lights flashed out, and she seemed to be holding a wondrous garden scene in her palm.

The magical imagery is surrounded by emerald green, resembling an inverted forest with a circular lake at its center.

Throughout the forest, birdsong seemed to fill the air, butterflies fluttered about, and bees buzzed about; in the lakes, transparent fish shadows drifted along the eddies, a scene brimming with life.

Deep within the imagery lies a wealth of subtle essence, imbued with profound truths about life.

At just a glance, Lyon knew that the difficulty was much higher than initially agreed.

It is said to be composed of ninety-nine magical images, but in reality, each image is extremely complex, and one is comparable to two or three other ordinary spells.

In other words, the essence of this magic has already reached the level of a king.

No wonder they say it's going to be lost.

"What, you find it difficult?"

The Forest Apostle smiled slightly:

“The magical imagery we used back then was so difficult. If you think it’s too difficult, don’t learn it. You’ll either die right now, or you can explain away all your lies now and I might spare your life and imprison you in my divine lake so you can die alone there.”

"Ridiculous, truly ridiculous! To bring out such a difficult spell for testing, and then shamelessly claim that all ancient spells are this difficult? Bah! Ancient spells value simplicity and directness, with only a few being complex. Since your spell is a simplification of so-called Apostle spells, how can it be considered a high-level spell?"

Then Mouripe's voice came through.

Lyon glanced over and saw that she had taken advantage of a moment when the forest apostle's divine power had slightly weakened to burst into laughter:

"Even if someone is exceptionally talented and naturally focused, how could they possibly pass your test? It's true that even divine species, despite possessing intelligence, are destined for extinction simply because their intelligence is insufficient. To test a mere helper, you actually presented such a difficult question. How laughable, utterly laughable!"

The Forest Apostle glanced at her, and Moripert's laughter abruptly stopped, clearly silenced.

Lyon's eyes flickered slightly. This forest apostle's mentality was frighteningly stable. Apart from escaping and becoming a god, no other topic could confuse her judgment.

However, he understood Moripe's intention; she was trying to help him clear the minefield, but unfortunately, it didn't work.

The Forest Apostle turned his gaze back to Lyon, his voice flat:

"You only have two hours, you can start now."

As soon as she finished speaking, her body flashed, leaving behind that magical image, but she disappeared without a trace.

But even though the man had left, the dragon eagle remained, its huge orange-red eyes fixed on Lyon.

Except for Lyon, everyone present was firmly sealed by Kamui.

Even Helvie, Iris, and Magiru, who were in his arms, were unable to speak or move.

At this moment, although Iris and Maggie had doubts about why the relationship between Leon and Helvie had evolved to this point, they could only bury their doubts in their hearts.

Without saying much, Lyon quickly activated the remaining two deep-mode modes.

He immediately entered four modes, including Fate Seeking, Purification, Sharing, and Miracle.

Although Miracle Mode doesn't greatly help with magical imagery, it does enhance mana manipulation and allows for a quick increase in magical proficiency through practice.

The Fate-Seeking Mode can enhance judgment in making choices, so it is suitable to use this mode when you need to think about which direction is faster.

Therefore, with the blessing of the four modes, the magical imagery before him quickly became clear, and he captured many subtle details hidden in the shadows.

Before long, he quickly found the sub-image that he had already learned and mastered perfectly.

Four of them are basic light-based healing spells, and two are holy prayer spells.

In addition, there is one basic magical image each belonging to the wind, earth, fire, and water elements, making it quite varied.

What's most amazing is that the ice reduction magic he had previously mastered also contained two sub-images hidden within it.

There are 12 in total, which he has mastered 99% or even perfectly.

With this foundation, the principles, functions, and combinations of other magical imagery can be quickly deduced.

The normal teaching method is to demonstrate the magical imagery first, and then explain the details, essence, key combinations, etc. of each aspect.

But clearly, the Forest Apostle didn't have that patience; he could only figure it out on his own, which undoubtedly made things even more difficult.

Fortunately, he only needs to learn the remaining 87 and quickly complete the combination construction, and complete more than 50% of the replication in the depths of his mind.

With a solid foundation, he can then activate divine energy to enhance his state, and with the four modes in effect, his efficiency is incredibly fast.

By combining their prior knowledge, they quickly learned and understood the underlying principles of each of the sub-images.

Just over an hour has passed.

If it were someone else at the fourth or even fifth level, they would probably only have a superficial understanding of one sub-image in an hour, but he had already grasped the various mysteries of all the sub-images at an astonishing speed.

But he still frowned.

Learning sub-images is not enough; the most important thing is to quickly integrate the sub-images into a whole and to fully depict them in the depths of one's mind.

If it's just ordinary high-level magic, with his current four modes and foundation, it wouldn't be difficult for him to quickly learn 50% of it within two hours.

But this is now much more complicated, and with only an hour left, there's probably still a long way to go.

and many more……

There's another mode I haven't tried yet.

A thought struck him, and he opened his eyes to look at Helvie.

"You should know that I have a magic surge disorder, and I need someone to help me regulate it at certain intervals, right?"

Herwiz couldn't speak, but her eyes could still move; she blinked.

"Because I have accumulated a lot of magic power this time, I'm afraid Iris and Machiru will not be able to withstand it. Therefore, I need to borrow your lips. The situation is urgent, so please forgive me."

Lyon's words were meant for both Helvie and Iris Marche.

After saying that, he took the initiative to kiss Herwiz.

Helvie was unable to move and could only watch helplessly as Lyon's handsome face grew larger and closer in front of her.

In the final moment of close contact, she seemed to accept it, closing her eyes and her delicate eyelashes trembling slightly.

*smack*

The moment their noses touched, Lyon caught a whiff of a delicate fragrance.

It has a faint, thorny rose scent.

I also sensed Herwiz's initial resistance, which then unconsciously turned into a passionate response.

[Herbie's favorability increased by 2%, current favorability is 94%]

[Initial exchange completed, mindset activated]

[Deep exchange completed, deep spiritual mode activated]

[Event and affinity requirements met, triggering Helvie's personal side quest "One Hundred Years of Solitude"]

[Mission Details: Help Helvie break the curse of being rejected by the world and free herself from endless rejection and loneliness]

[Quest Rewards: Maximum Mana +50, Spirit Power +30, Learn Legendary Mind Magic, Mind Gravity]

[Herwitz's main quest "Fallen to Godhood" completion rate +5%, current completion rate 10%]

The people nearby were dumbfounded.

Although Lyon had explained the reason beforehand, I was still shocked and stunned when I actually saw it.

After all, the person in front of them was neither Ophimasso, nor Britta, nor even familiar faces like Kekeqi or Mshifisu.

Rather, they were enemies from not long ago.

This epic dark elf who kidnapped Leon a while ago was just defeated by Leon?

No, Elise and Maggie clearly saw that Herwiz showed no sign of refusal.

Not only that, but they also so actively cater to it!

Is this...right?

Iris was the first to have this thought.

Lyon must have done this for my sake!

He was trapped here for many days without any guidance, and must have endured a lot of pain and accumulated too much magic power!

If it were me to bear it, I probably wouldn't be able to!

He was considering my feelings, which is why he preferred to avoid working with me and instead work with our former enemy.

Perhaps what I saw as flattery was simply her being severely injured and forced to appease Leon, the only one who had the opportunity to speak with this peak demigod, in order to save herself.

Thinking of this, she once again secretly hated herself for not being strong enough, and her teeth almost ground to powder.
