Fortunately, due to his physical strength, Leon's overall combat power is now comparable to that of a god. Otherwise, if it were a few months ago, he definitely would not have been able to withstand the pressure of being in close contact with Terena.

She is also the strongest individual that Mother Leon has ever seen.

As for the Origin Goddess Petrified, since Leon only saw a projected clone, he will not be included in the comparison for the time being.

At this moment, Terena hugged her small chest, examined Lyon for a moment, and then said, "Your comprehension efficiency has declined, and the changes in your body have also stopped. That's quite interesting."

Lyon asked in surprise, "My body is changing?"

He only felt the increase in his mental strength, but he didn't feel any changes in his body.

"Ah."

Terena's black pearl-like eyes flickered slightly, and then she said:

"It seems that although your physique is very strong for your rank, your ability to perceive your own physique is slightly lacking, and you cannot detect more subtle changes."

She seemed somewhat disappointed that Lyon hadn't noticed the change.

Leon caught her emotion at this moment, which was more obvious than before, although it was still very subtle. Others would definitely not have noticed it and might even have thought that she didn't care at all, and that it was just an objective and calm comment.

But he did indeed sense the emotion, and couldn't help but say:

"So you want me to feel that change? Is this your reason for breaking the experimental procedure and suddenly touching me? And the changes in my body represent a greater research significance than the [Secret Inscription Life-Giving] experiment?"

As he said this, what flashed through his mind was the description of Terena's supernatural organs recorded on the panel.

Besides the immortal body of civilization, she also possesses the Creation Point Spirit Extinguishing Hand, the Void Penetrating True Nature Eye, the Flawless Jade-like Divine Skin, and the Myriad Transformations Sensing Divine Brain. These four are clearly supernatural organs that are extremely adept at perception.

Based on the way she just explored, and considering Astalia's previous actions, it's entirely possible that she was using her supernatural abilities to sense Leon's physical changes.

Of course, it's also possible that she's enjoying this process of exploration.

"I've already told you, stop making wild guesses about me, don't you understand?"

A subtle glint flashed in Terena's eyes, then she said coldly, "However, you guessed my thoughts correctly this time. It seems you have mastered the art of rational thinking. I'll let you off this time, but if you start thinking and guessing again, don't blame me for downgrading your reward."

[Goddess Therena's favorability +1%, current favorability 99%]

Wow, the punishment is just a downgrade of the reward, not direct physical punishment. How can she be so cute?

Isn't her subtext that if you figure it out correctly, she won't punish you?

Leon suddenly found Terena quite adorable at this stage.

"Now, let's get back to the main topic. Why don't you tell me what changes occurred after I absorbed those mysterious characters?"

"It's none of your business."

"My physical changes have nothing to do with me?"

"Hmph, if you can't figure it out yourself, why should I bother telling you the details?"

Terena crossed her arms again, her slender white arms forming a fork in front of her small chest, which seemed to carry a subtle displeasure, and within that displeasure, a barely perceptible hint of embarrassment.

"Anyway, don't ask me that question again! Got it?"

Leon narrowed his eyes, once again noticing Terena's very subtle sense of embarrassment.

This emotion was also very difficult to detect. If he hadn't been observing with all his might, he might not have been able to see Terena's subtle emotion.

But why did she feel embarrassed?

Would she feel embarrassed to tell him about the changes in her body?

Lyon felt a surge of curiosity, like a cat scratching at his heart. What subtle change had just occurred in him that could cause such a detached goddess like Terena to waver?

At first, she touched herself, perhaps because the positive feelings were being activated and synchronized to the future.

But no matter what, given her still-developing detached perspective and aloof personality, she would most likely be able to restrain herself and stop exploring after a while.

Referring to their previous experience in the Prison of Colors, M'shiruna and Shitikos also endured for a long time.

But she had been touching herself for a whole hour!

Repeatedly, even touching certain parts multiple times!

Therefore, Leon believed that she must have seen something more interesting to have touched him for an hour before stopping what seemed like a strange act to her.

'By the way, since my current mental strength isn't enough to perceive this change, why not try divination?'

Without hesitation, Leon immediately activated the [Time and Space Miracle Divination Technique].

However, he was disappointed in just a moment.

Because this magic can transcend time and space, overlook the long river of time, and find the answers one seeks.

However, the accuracy of its observations depends on itself.

My current highest observation accuracy is approximately in the 10 picometer range, or around 0.01 nanometers.

This level of precision allows one to see all the structures within a cell, even molecules and atoms, but it can only see the surface of atoms and cannot see the details inside the atomic nucleus.

Is it because my observation is not precise enough, or is this change not at the material level, but rather a deeper, more conceptual, and more spatiotemporal change?

Why are you daydreaming?

Terena looked up at Leon, who had stood up, and snorted:

Even if your comprehension efficiency declines, you must continue to comprehend and not stop.

Leon asked in surprise, "Then what about that experiment with the mysterious symbols from before..."

"Never mind that for now, let's continue to comprehend it."

Terena said calmly:

"Since you possess a level of comprehension that surpasses that of most gods despite being a mortal, you should make good use of it and not waste a single second."

Leon could only temporarily suspend his contemplation of the imperceptible changes in his body, maintaining the remaining ten modes and continuing his comprehension.

Fortunately, even with just ten modes combined, this comprehension ability is still incredibly powerful.

Two hours later, he comprehended the twelve mysterious characters again, and his body spontaneously merged with them, gaining increased mental power and more fragments of Terena's memories.

This time, he saw an interesting scene again in these memories.

That was a conversation between Terena and another ruler of the restricted area.

Then, at the first glance in that memory, Lyon confirmed the identity of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone.

Vichy!

Lord of the Spirit Abyss!

The reason why her identity could be confirmed at first glance was simply because her appearance was almost 99% similar to Helvie, whom Lyon was familiar with.

Moreover, it's not the future eighth-tier dark elf with black hair, but rather Helvie's silver-haired girl form when she was Leon's older sister, and her temperament already has a touch of mature beauty, just at the intersection of girlhood and mature womanhood.

A slender, curvaceous figure, and an elegant and composed demeanor.

In the memory, Youheweiz spoke: "The spiritual abyss has recently been surging with the power of the end and the power of the tide of life and death. Terena, if one day I continue to sink into the path of the evil god, then leave a curse mark on me in the sacred tree. I will find a way to get this curse mark after I am resurrected."

Terena replied, "Have you made up your mind?"

"Ah."

"Alright, I'll leave this curse mark. Good luck."

"Goodbye."

Then came a scene that seemed to depict a shattering of time and space.

'I wonder which era this Youheweizi belongs to.'

'However, I didn't expect that Youheweiz and Terena seem to have a good relationship.'

Thus, the second hour of comprehension time came to an end, and Leon's Rebellious Mode and Invincible Mode automatically exited.

Terena, standing to the side, quickly noticed the change in Leon's efficiency and spoke up:

"Your efficiency has dropped quite a bit. It seems you've accumulated a lot of mental stress?"

Because Lyon's mental strength increased during this period, his actual mental burden was not that great.

Moreover, his own sharing mode clearly played a significant role in absorbing those mysterious texts, allowing him to release his mental burden more quickly. Therefore, he could actually sustain such high-intensity meditation for another two or three hours.

However, considering that it would be strange if he didn't have much mental stress, he nodded and said, "Yes, there is some."

To her surprise, Terena's eyes flickered for a moment, then she frowned: "Why do you seem to be hiding something from me again?"

Was she seen through by her supernatural organ, the "True Eye of Nature that Pierces Through the Void"?

Lyon blinked: "Okay, then I'll tell you the truth. Actually, I'm exceptionally gifted, and I naturally accumulate less mental stress than most people."

"That's strange."

Terena stared at Lyon: "Since the mental load accumulates slowly, why is your comprehension efficiency declining so significantly?"

"Is this comprehension speed too slow?"

"Compared to other test subjects, your comprehension efficiency is naturally very strong, and it may even be enough for you to learn a twelfth-level magic within a few decades. You can be called the most intelligent species with the strongest comprehension I have ever seen."

Terena shook her head: "But compared to your previous performance, it's far worse. How could you decline so much? How can you reactivate that physical change you just experienced?"

Lyon, naturally unable to reveal his own methods, said, "I've always been like this; the first hour is always the fastest for comprehending any magic."

Terena frowned: "This time you're not lying."

Leon breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed he had managed to slip through the cracks.

"However, why do you possess such a strange talent?"

Terena said, "I need to check carefully. Take your clothes off!"

Chapter 530 Terena: No need to go back

Lyon: "My talent shouldn't have anything to do with whether or not I take my clothes off, right?"

"It depends. If I remove everything that's blocking my observation, I should be able to see something."

Terena said something, then shook her head:

"Forget it, I'll help you take it off. It'll be a waste of time if you do it yourself."

With a casual wave of her hand, the layer of clothing covering Leon instantly tore apart and disappeared, revealing Leon's strong and fit physique.

Her gaze swept over Lyon, a look of satisfaction on her face:

"Not bad. You're only at the seventh level, yet you've managed to develop such a powerful physique. Your talent is even stronger than I initially estimated."

[Goddess Therena's favorability +1%, current favorability 100%]

[Affection level has been reached; Super Brain Mode can be unlocked upon initial QW]

[The Deep Brain Mode can be activated upon initial Deep xx]

[Note: After initial activation, the Super Brain Mode can be activated automatically for 1 hour every 24 hours.]

Lyon noticed that her gaze this time shone with a kind of penetrating power, and as she scanned him, she saw him clean inside and out.

It was clear that she had activated a stronger divine organ, enhancing her perception and awareness.

However, after looking at Leon's exposed body for a while, Terena frowned and said, "Strange, your talent is really strange. Why does it fade every once in a while, but your body doesn't show any abnormal changes?"

Lyon felt a chill run down his spine.

Having been in the industry for so long, this is the first time I've encountered such a strong person, who is carefully exploring their own talents.

The other high-level experts were usually just surprised, but did not take any further action to investigate.

"Your Excellency, this is the nature of my innate ability to change gradually over time. If you want to see me reactivate that subtle change, why not give me some free time and try again tomorrow?"

"Will your physical abilities recover by tomorrow?"

"Of course, I've always been like this."

"Alright then, it seems you weren't lying. Continue your comprehension, and I'll come back to see you tomorrow."

Terena turned and left decisively, striding towards the spacious hall ahead:

"I'll be doing other experiments, so don't slack off."

"Don't worry, Your Excellency. This is your territory. I know what to do."
