I Created Scientific Magic-Chapter 386 - : 374

Chapter 386: 374

Under the analysis of the Magic Creator Vittorio, the fear of the Divine Descent among the present council members had subsided considerably. Since there was no way to contend with that false god for the time being, they had to find ways to avoid direct confrontation with the adversary.

They could do as Master Lynn and the Legendary Councilmen did this time, directly killing the Caster to interrupt the Divine Arts, or employ the means of assassination to successively eliminate the leaders of the church’s army of Divine Punishment, the Judgement Chief, and a host of other high-ranking members…

In the midst of the fervent discussion, Lynn, however, was not so optimistic.

Even if they tried to avoid it as much as possible, that goddess would sooner or later be an enemy they had to face.

Moreover, the clergy of the church could not be regarded in the usual sense, as some fanatics were complete madmen, willing to sacrifice everything for their god.

Death, in their eyes, might just be seen as an early return to the bosom of the Lord.

...

As for how to defeat “Aira,” Lynn had some ideas in mind.

Since the adversary could manipulate magic and the atomic and molecular structure of Divine Arts with incredible precision, it was delusional to think of defeating her on this level.

Their only hope was to overtake on the inside track, into the even more microscopic Quantum Domain, and thereby develop magic potent enough to slay a god!

As Lynn was thinking this, Harrov at his side suddenly spoke up, “Master Lynn, may I inquire what the Secret Magic Society’s views are on the current war between the church and the kingdom?”

Upon hearing this, the discussion in the meeting room instantly quieted down, and Rafael and the others sharply remembered that besides the Wizard Council, members of the Secret Magic Society were also involved in this war.

This was a powerful ally!

Although their understanding of this mystical Wizard organization was limited, they could infer some clues from various aspects.

For instance, the several members of the Secret Magic Society they knew of were all exceptional wizards.

There was no need to mention Lynn; it was unknown which Legendary Wizard of the Secret Magic Society had mentored him, but at such a young age, he had already advanced to become a Grand Wizard. Moreover, in the realms of arcane mathematics, force fields, elements, and alchemy, he possessed extraordinary talent.

In the two years since he arrived in Wizard Land, he had received a corona and two Silver Moon Medals… becoming the star of magic that everyone watched!

If it weren’t for the fact that he hadn’t published any significant papers in Shaping and Magic Potion studies, they would almost believe Master Lynn was omnipotent.

There was also Anthony, the Six-Ring Grand Wizard who had developed the powerful Thunder Magic on his own, essentially creating a whole new school that allowed formal wizards to harness the power of thunder…

And lastly, there was the Great Master Leibniz, who proposed calculus. His debate with the Great Wizard Zeno regarding the race of the tortoise had spread like wildfire across Wizard Land, inciting a whirlwind of debates about motion and stillness, the finite and the infinite.

Therefore, in Rafael’s view, the members of the Secret Magic Society were a group of gifted and knowledgeable wizards, among whom surely existed Legendary Wizards. If they were willing to collaborate sincerely with the Council, then their likelihood of defeating the church would dramatically increase.

Under the expectant gaze of the assembly members, Lynn deliberated before speaking. “As for the war with the Church, there is no small debate within the Secret Magic Society. There are many who favor it, but in the end, those who are waiting and watching are in the majority. There are also not a few who believe that, relying solely on our power, we are not sufficient to defend the entire kingdom…”

Through Lynn’s explanation, Rafael and the others came to understand that the Secret Magic Society is a loose scholarly organization, favoring the recruitment of researchers in academic fields. Members usually meet in their microcosms, and it’s even possible that they do not know each other’s identities…

However, the so-called status and position are also not valued within the society, because here, knowledge is everything!

And the members of the Secret Magic Society, having diverse views on this war, could not possibly organize a large number of people to come for reinforcements like the Wizard Council would.

As Lynn was supplementing the Secret Magic Society’s foundation, he was thinking to himself that he would have to coax quite a few wizards from the kingdoms and empires to join the society as members in the future; that way, he could bluster through.

“As for the stewards of the Secret Magic Society, I think they might be interested in that false god,” Lynn said once again.

“Could it be they wish to join in the war to overthrow the Church?” Harrov asked with surprise and a hint of excitement.

“That, I do not know,” Lynn shook his head.

Aurora suddenly spoke up with a question. “I heard that when the Secret Magic Society allowed you to enter the Wizard Land, they instructed you to hand over the ring of arcane secrets to the wisest person. So you gave it to Harrov, is that so?”

Lynn heard the dissatisfaction in the witch’s words and was at a loss whether to cry or laugh.

At that time, he only knew Harrov, that one Legendary Wizard, and both Aurora and Vittorio, the heads of the Prophecy School and Alchemic Research Institute, were not the most suitable targets.

“The Secret Magic Society never turns away learned and knowledgeable individuals like the two Council Heads. Last time was only a preliminary contact and understanding, I believe you will definitely receive an invitation to the next discussion,” he said.

Aurora and Vittorio nodded in agreement; they were quite interested in the Secret Magic Society. Harrov, on the other hand, was both looking forward to and worried about the next meeting, as he had almost lost face during the last Legendary Assembly. The theories and conjectures about the formation of the world that were discussed there had taken him over a year and he still hadn’t fully grasped them…

…

The assembly members’ internal meeting lasted a whole morning. Aside from how to deal with the Divine Descent Technique, the focus of the debate was on whether they should continue to hold the capital or take the initiative to recapture the kingdom’s territories, or even push into imperial land.

On this point, Hattar had already urged several times, because nearly half of the kingdom’s territories had fallen, and his title as King was nearly in name only!

However, this king, who was clearly just a figurehead, couldn’t affect the Council’s decisions. After several rounds of discussion, Lynn decided that it was better to hold their position for a while, to recover logistics, especially the production of ammunition!

In this battle to defend the capital, the Alchemic Research Institute had unveiled a devastating weapon like the machine gun, which performed exceedingly well on the battlefield. In just one minute, three machine guns had killed hundreds of the punishing army soldiers, a feat undoubtedly astounding.

One must understand these soldiers of the punishing army had previously driven back thousands from the guard and musketeer corps, but had become the targets of slaughter under machine gun fire. As long as they could ensure a supply of ammunition, they could take the initiative in the war!
