I Created Scientific Magic-Chapter 609 - 521: It is the custom of this world to lock guests in cages!_2

In the end, it boiled down to eight words, stabilize domestic affairs, prepare for war!

One could only hope that the so-called Master of the Undead would discover the Space-Time Gate later, giving them more time to prepare.

Lynn felt that after returning, perhaps he could ask the crow again to see if he could get some new intelligence.

…

After concluding today’s meeting, Lynn immediately returned to his estate in the capital and then partially opened the cage, transforming the completely sealed sides that had not a single gap into a series of neatly arranged cylindrical frames.

However, the moment the form of the cage changed, a black streak of light immediately shot out, trying to squeeze through the less than one-centimeter gap in the frame!

But Lynn had anticipated this, building a Force Field Magic barrier on the outside of the cage. Compared to the more obvious physical cage, this was the true containment.

The black crow tried several times and, realizing it simply couldn’t escape, became so enraged that it kept jumping around in the cage, the sound of its ugly curses echoing incessantly.

“You foolish native, how dare you offend the messenger of the great God of Life and Creation. Your soul shall be enslaved by the Master of the Undead, and your world will become a lifeless death prison because of your foolish actions…”

Lynn had no intention of arguing and just leaned back in his chair, comfortably listening to the crow’s curses.

After the previous confinement and verbal probing, Lynn had found that aside from verbal threats, the crow seemed to have no way of dealing with them.

Lynn felt there might be three reasons.

First, this universe has not fully connected with the so-called main world, so even if the other side was a god, it couldn’t cross the worlds to kill or punish him.

Second, the divine realm connecting this universe was under the control of the Master of the Undead. One would have to pass through there, overcoming the Master of the Undead, which might lead to an early divine conflict!

Third, this crow might not be as important as it claimed to be; it was just a common messenger and not significant enough to provoke the wrath of the God of Life and Creation over some offense.

Lynn’s mind raced with thoughts, and he waited like this for over an hour until the annoyed crow had finished cursing, had grown tired, and finally calmed down. No longer hearing the sharp crowing, Lynn came back to his senses and, with a smile, said.

“Actually, we harbor no ill will, great Star Messenger, on the contrary, we are extremely grateful for the message you’ve brought.”

The black raven looked strangely at the cage that held it, glaring annoyed at Lynn outside the cage.

Is this how you show gratitude?

Lynn shrugged his shoulders and continued, “As ignorant natives, we know very little about the gods and the main world as you’ve mentioned, and we can’t confirm the veracity of this message for the time being, so we request that the great Star Messenger please stay in this abode we’ve specially crafted for you.”

“Moreover, this is not an offense or imprisonment but rather a kind of… erm, special custom!” Lynn said, looking sincerely at the cage he had created. “Indeed, putting ravens in cages is actually a custom of our world!”

The black raven rolled its eyes in a very human-like manner, clearly not so easily fooled, but it was too tired to curse or even speak.

Lynn smiled and swiftly moved on from that topic, then asked, “Great Star Messenger, you must have come to our world on a mission, right?”

The black raven held its head high in pride, too disdainful to respond to Lynn’s words.

“I believe this mission must be related to confronting the Lord of the Undead, which means our goals are actually aligned, and we can fully cooperate,” Lynn said earnestly, echoing the attitude of the council that they were open to cooperation but not to one-sided commands.

“Cooperate?” The black raven seemed to have heard the funniest thing in the world, saying disdainfully, “The power and greatness of the gods are not something you can comprehend!”

Only those of equivalent level could entertain the idea of cooperation.

Lynn was unfazed by the raven’s belittlement, even acknowledging it. “Please forgive our limited perspective as natives. I want to know, can a god completely destroy a world?”

The black raven paused for a moment, then cawed, “In previous divine wars, the collapse of planes was not uncommon.”

Lynn was somewhat surprised; the concept of conquering a world and destroying one were entirely different, and his estimation of the gods’ capabilities increased another level.

Neither they nor Elara, who had attained godhood, had the ability to completely obliterate a planet.

It was unknown if this plane was like a planet, or could it even possibly be an entire universe?

“How did you find our world?” Lynn asked pensively, raising his second question.

According to this raven, the Lord of the Undead who controlled the opposing divine realm had not yet found any Space-Time Gates; otherwise, they’d have invaded long ago. Yet the God of Life and Creation was able to send a messenger ahead to warn them.

This was the reason for Lynn’s continued suspicion towards this Star Messenger.

“The God of Life and Creation is great, omniscient, and all-knowing!” the black raven proclaimed arrogantly.

Omniscient? All-knowing?

Lynn was deeply skeptical of these claims, as the Lord of the Undead, who was also a god, clearly didn’t possess such abilities.

If there was such a vast disparity between the two deities, and they had significant disagreements, it’s likely that the Lord of the Undead would no longer exist—unless it was some special kind of prophetic ability.

As Lynn pondered, a soft knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

“Chairman, Lady Ivina says she has important matters to discuss with you, and she has brought a captive, likely one of the Divine Punishment Knights.”

Lynn glanced at the raven in the cage, thought for a moment, and showed no intention of locking it up again, simply stating, “Let her in.”
