You are all my wings!

A short while later, the three arrived at their location, and Leon dropped the two off.

This is an underground cave, not far from where he had previously been located in Zangmushifisu.

"Rita, begin setting up the resurrection magic circle."

Rita?

Ophimosa raised an eyebrow. "Even the way you address me has changed?"

Britta took out a series of materials and began to quickly draw a magic circle on the ground.

Ophimasso approached, about to ask Lyon a question.

Leon immediately said, "Ophie, could you please keep watch for me? My Miracle Astrologer has triggered an Ascension Inspiration."

Ophimosa frowned. Was this guy deliberately avoiding him?

However, considering that advancing to the next level was indeed very important, he suppressed his doubts and calmly nodded: "No problem, leave it to me."

Leon currently has plenty of time remaining on his four self-activated modes, and his Divine Mode has only recently been activated, making him the peak state of being empowered by all five modes, perfect for advancing to the next level.

The biggest surprise was the Divine Mode. If he had been too eager to absorb the advancement enlightenment earlier, he might have missed the blessing of the Divine Mode.

Judging from the efficiency of the sacred mode in comprehending knowledge, principles, and profound mysteries, with the blessing of this mode, one will inevitably be able to absorb more knowledge clouds, gain more professional enhancements, and undergo more transformations in professional skills.

Lyon sat down on the spot, entered a meditative state, and triggered enlightenment.

boom!!!!!

It sounded like a thunderclap.

With the support of four deep levels and one deep mode, his soul rapidly ascended and soared, leaping into the sea of ​​knowledge at a speed several times faster than before.

At this moment, in the Divine Mode, the sea of ​​knowledge in his eyes seemed to have changed its appearance.

The sea of ​​knowledge we used to see was a vast ocean, with knowledge gathering into clouds.

Now, seeing a cloud of knowledge, he naturally developed a corresponding intuitive understanding in his mind, knowing what scope this cloud of knowledge belonged to, what aspects it involved, what details it contained, what gaps in his knowledge could be filled after absorbing it, and what aspects of his knowledge system could be enhanced.

Previously, he could only rely on his intuition to find knowledge that might be related to his needs, absorbing whatever he saw.

But now, he can prioritize absorbing more important and non-repetitive knowledge within this limited time!

With a quick glance, he immediately spotted several knowledge clouds that he could prioritize absorbing and pounced on them.

One aspect involves how to enhance the effectiveness of fraud through point-to-point interactions.

A group of people discussed the principles of soul transformation regarding how to wisely deal with fraud.

The last one discovered was related to fraudulent matter, involving the basic principles of matter operation and the specific principles of how fraud interferes with matter, making it clearly of a higher level than the previous ones.

The other groups were quite common and not much different from what he had absorbed before. With the help of multiple modes, he easily absorbed and digested them.

As the pattern has increased significantly again, it is no surprise that his mental strength will once again have a chance to surge.

In the blink of an eye, he withdrew from the sea of ​​knowledge and closed his eyes to slowly digest the remaining knowledge.

【主要属性：窥命力40/神圣能量容纳量7/精神力67/生命力121/魔力量296/体力167/力量150/敏捷167】

Spirit +5, Magic +8, Stamina +3, Strength +3, Agility +5

Other increases are not bad, after all, this is the third time it has upgraded to the fourth tier, so there will be a marginal effect.

Even with the marginal effect, this growth is still considerable, far surpassing the progress of many ordinary professions to the fourth tier.

The important thing is that the attribute cap has been expanded again.

And, more importantly, the enhancement of core skills.

Judging from the knowledge cloud he just absorbed, there should be a pleasant surprise.

He opened the panel and continued to look at it.

[Core professional skills: Trust halo transformed into Deception halo]

[Effect: Can selectively enhance trust effects by consuming mental energy. Note that if the opponent's mental energy is higher than yours, only the basic trust effect will be applied; can deceive microscopic matter, the microscopic scale of which is determined by the user's observation ability, and can use 'truth within falsehood' to permanently solidify the deception effect. If there is enough 'truth within falsehood', the deception effect can be permanently fixed.]

Wow, the skill enhancements after this class advancement are quite substantial.

Lyon checked the panel description and was pleasantly surprised.

This divine mode has come at just the right time.

Judging from the effectiveness of this enhancement, he was certain that without the Divine Mode, this enhancement would at most only increase the coverage and intensity of the Trust Aura.

Just like when he advanced to the next level, due to the acquisition of the sharing mode, his absorption efficiency greatly increased, and he was lucky enough to absorb the knowledge cloud of material fraud.

With the addition of the Divine Mode, the skill enhancement is significantly better suited to my preferences.

'This time I can deceive microscopic matter, which means that if I can deceive my own cells, turning them into divine cells and solidifying their effects, wouldn't I be able to create a terrifying physical body for myself that even powerful monsters can't match? According to what Turlonye said before, becoming a god now requires a physique far exceeding that of a demigod. Although my Monster Muscle Resonance Technique is powerful enough, it's only at the seventh rank. Therefore, deceiving the physical body seems to be an operation I can perform later.'

Thinking about this, Lyon's heart stirred slightly, and he realized that this idea seemed to have great potential.

Without hesitation, he immediately entered a meditative state, trying to see if he could trick the cells.

Human cells are approximately 10-100 micrometers in size, roughly the diameter of half a human hair. With his current eyesight and mental strength, he can observe cells within the body if he focuses enough.

Due to repeated physical enhancements, his cells are generally larger, making them easy to observe.

He chose the harmless appendix, selected a few epithelial cells from it, and began his deception.

'You are a divine cell! You are a divine cell!'

Coo coo, coo coo.

As the fraud began, Lyon noticed a significant drain on his mental energy.

A strange and divine power surged forth from those few epithelial cells.

These tall, columnar cells quickly underwent a morphological change, becoming sharper, resembling a black sword shrunk countless times.

But in just a moment, his mental energy was depleted by 30 points, which was terrifying. He immediately stopped the deception.

'It seems we've taken too big a step. I didn't expect that just deceiving a few cells would consume so much energy. It shows how far beyond the realm of gods truly is.'

As he ceased his fraudulent activities, the cell slowly regressed, returning to its original form.

However, Lyon was not discouraged; on the contrary, he was extremely excited!

Because he was able to conjure up some divine power with just fourth-order material deception.

If I master Machiru's divine magic, gain a better understanding of basic knowledge like life alchemy, and further enhance my mental strength to reach a higher rank, wouldn't I have a chance to succeed?

Even if you can't trick the gods into giving you divine cells, you could at least temporarily trick your skin into giving you the appearance of a monster with high magic resistance, right?

In a life-or-death situation, this might be the skill that saves your life!

Next, Lyon began a new round of testing.

For this test, he chose skin from his arm.

'You are a skin of a sixth-tier Shadow Demon Spider! Your appearance hasn't changed, but your essence is that of a sixth-tier Shadow Demon Spider!'

As his mental energy was depleted, he felt a slight tingling and numbness in his body, and his skin seemed to become unusually tough.

Fraud is a familiar item, so the consumption is not high.

He casually unleashed a perfect-grade intermediate-level Flame Gathering Bullet, compressing it into a flame shape, concentrating its firepower infinitely.

Swiftly.

The flames were only four or five centimeters thick, bluish-white in color, and rose upwards in clusters.

The moment it appeared, an astonishingly high temperature spread throughout the cave.

The cave, which was slightly damp and cold in the dead of night, suddenly became extremely dry.

Even the dust in the air around him seemed to melt and explode, making crackling and popping sounds.

This scene drew the attention of Ophimaso. He was clearly a Miracle Astrologer who had advanced in rank, so why did he play with fire afterwards?

However, this fire is really fierce.

After watching for only a short while, Ophimasso felt his mouth go dry.

She was somewhat surprised that such a small flame was so fierce. Could it be that Lyon had compressed a higher-level fire magic?

But he's only at the fourth rank, how could he already control magic to this extent?

"Leon, what's wrong with you...?"

"A small experiment."

Lyon offered no explanation, focusing instead on trying.

In a short while, the flames slowly spread, transforming into a layer of fiery skin that gradually flowed across the entire palm.

What surprised Orpheus even more was that Lyon made easy contact with the flames without using any protective magic, and his palm was not damaged at all!

Those jade-like hands suddenly became like the hands of a god, with light and heat converging.

Clearly, Lyon's fraud was successful.

Currently, the mental energy consumption is 10 points, and the duration is about 30 seconds, which is not bad, considering that it is a leapfrog mastery of the protective skin of a sixth-tier powerful monster.

Furthermore, the current level of magical compression is something that Lyon, as an elemental mage, can achieve after reaching the fourth rank and using the Deep Miracle Mode.

With these two enhancements, not only was the consumption of all his intermediate elemental magic greatly reduced, but he also gained more and more control over those intermediate magics that he had mastered to a perfect level. In particular, the fire and water magics, which had special enhancements, were even more powerful.

The compressible range has been reduced from the size of a human body in the previous third order to the size of a palm now.

Looking at the compressed flames, Leon suddenly had an idea. He thought to himself, 'Now that I can freely control the flames of this intermediate-level concentrated fire bullet, and my skin can withstand such intense firepower, could this flame become another advantageous weapon for me in close combat?'

With that thought in mind, he slowly stretched his palm into the ground.

Then, an even more astonishing scene unfolded.

Wherever his palm touched, the earth and rocks melted, the heat was intense, and scorching air rose.

Suddenly, a deep hole the size of a palm was melted into the ground, with red-hot lava flowing underneath.

Ophimasso stared wide-eyed, observing carefully.

The firepower is so fierce that if it were to encounter a powerful sixth-tier demon, it could probably use the high temperature combined with Leon's immense strength to pierce through its flesh with his bare hands.

Due to its high degree of compression, the power of this magic has clearly far exceeded the limits of its own rank.

"Leon, is this flame magic of yours a high-level spell?"

Ophimosa asked.

"No, this is intermediate level."

Lyon smiled slightly.

Ophimasso was speechless.

Then, she smiled sweetly:

"Well, all I can say is that you are truly my darling. Your talent is a gem of the world. As your wife, I am very proud."

[Character Ophimosa's affinity +2%, current affinity 105%]

Lyon did not respond for the time being, focusing on figuring out the new tricks he had developed.

Let's call this skill "Flame Condensation Palm" for now.

This can effectively increase one's unarmed lethality. This move can be used when there is a lack of weapons or when the Shadow's hardness cannot be used.

It feels more like a demonized version of combat techniques than magic.

Wait, did I accidentally create a completely new magic combat system?

Has he achieved any great accomplishments?

Mages are not known for their melee combat skills, but if they could do what I do, wouldn't they be even more overwhelming to warrior-type classes?

Leon shook his head, not thinking much about it. After all, he was able to achieve this level only with perfect control and the Miracle Mode. Others didn't have his conditions.

He glanced at Britta's setup and saw that she was setting up a magic circle. In front of her, twelve six-pointed star arrays had been stacked, and each gap still had a lot of mysterious text that had not been written.

It seems she still needs a long time to make arrangements.

Fine, let's continue testing the con artist's second skill: making lies appear true.

Leon entered the skill activation state.

call out!!!!
