It was not an easy task to establish a new school within Wizard Land in a short period of ti.
Relying solely on recruiting apprentices and training them was simply too slow, and as he continued to reveal various wondrous pieces of knowledge, trouble was bound to co sooner or later, especially since he was still not powerful enough to walk sideways through Wizard Land.
Despite enduring for so long in the battle with the great wizard Helram, Lynn was well aware that if it hadn’t been for the smart brain suddenly seizing control of the Virtual Domain while the opponent was casting with all his might, causing them to fall into a strong magical backlash, even with the computing power support of nine third-level wizards, he would have stood no chance.
Therefore, it was necessary to hoodwink so suitable people to believe that the Secret Magic Society truly existed and to beco a part of it, thereby spontaneously protecting and escorting the developnt of the school.
This Virtual Domain was the best tool he had at his disposal!
The assembly form of the Faceless provided many inspirations for Lynn, but of course, the location of this gathering had to be more grandiose, after all, he had already blown his own trumpet!
As Lynn thought, he created a bounded bubble universe that floated within the endless cosmic space, complete with an atmosphere and even gravity, with constants identical to the surface of a planet.
"This place shall be called ’Beyond Ti and Space,’" Lynn quickly had the smart brain record this na, and from then on, this would be the place to hoodwink those high-level wizards.
"Hmm, still need to add sothing else..." Lynn unleashed his creativity at will, not stopping until he noticed that the energy reserves of the smart brain had depleted by more than half, prompting him to hurriedly cease.
After all, the soul power collected by the smart brain was not infinite; one less consud was one less in reserve.
Although he had already noted down the alchemy formula for soul body separation, Lynn had no intention of using this life-depleting thod to replenish energy.
After arranging the decorations within the bubble universe, Lynn inquired again, "071, how are those Faceless who were connected to my mind before? Are they still functioning normally?"
Since these Faceless had basically stayed in the Virtual Domain for two to three years, attending hundreds of etings, their spiritual power defenses had long been as porous as sieves.
During Lynn’s use of the fourth-level magic "Deflection Field," the allocation of computing power was the most terrifying, even able to reach over fifty percent, so after the battle concluded, these individuals had unanimously suffered severe ntal injuries.
Five of them died on the spot, and the remaining four also lost contact temporarily, unclear whether they had fallen unconscious or had destroyed the Faceless rings in their possession.
[No remaining connected targets in the Virtual Domain.]
Could it really be a complete wipeout?
Lynn was taken aback, but the smart brain could only roughly deduce the status of these people based on their connection through magic power, which was not necessarily accurate. However, no matter how it was said, the secretive organization of the Faceless was on the brink of collapse.
Just like "Bloodthorn," as Helram’s white gloves, every Faceless had nurous blood debts in their hands, their research outcos alone providing a glimpse into that fact. Lynn felt no sympathy for these individuals, and letting them disappear along with Helram might not be a bad thing.
The only regret for Lynn was that the thod of stealing computing power to enhance his own strength would probably not be usable in the short term, and even if new mbers joined in the future, breaking through their ntal defenses would take a long ti.
Contemplating, Lynn montarily exited the Virtual Domain, and with a flip of his hand, he took out three exquisitely designed rings, which belonged to North, Barbara, and Hank, the rings of the Faceless.
As the Caster, Helram didn’t need the object to enter and exit the Virtual Domain, but it was precisely because of his deep connection that he suffered a strong backlash when his control was taken away.
Since acquiring the Ring of the Faceless, he had been studying the principles behind it. After damaging one ring, he did make so progress, but it would still take so ti to fully decipher and successfully replicate it.
"071, change the magic power frequency for entering the Virtual Domain," Lynn thought to himself.
With that, the remaining rings scattered outside lost their original function.
Without a receiver, that thing was just junk.
Knock, knock, knock...
As Lynn pondered, a knocking suddenly sounded. After storing away the rings, Lynn activated the "Mage’s Hand" to open the door.
A silver-haired witch stood quietly at the door, speaking softly to remind him. "Professor Lynn, Mr. Tic asked to tell you, the honorable Wizards of the council will arrive today."
"Alright, I’ll be right there!" Lynn nodded, then followed Johnny out.
By the ti they reached the entrance to Yiyeta Academy, Philip, Kevin, and Orlando were already waiting there.
Before he could greet them, Lynn saw a few ornately decorated carriages racing towards them on the street nearby. Pulling these carriages were not cal beasts, but robust fire lions, their manes like blazing flas, powerful in appearance.
The procession ca to a smooth halt before the group. As Lynn and others watched, the carriage curtain was slowly drawn back. A middle-aged male wizard with a tuft of beard and profound eyes stepped down from the carriage, his gaze imdiately taking in the surrounding architecture. He nodded in satisfaction at the rows of identically long and wide houses and remarked with nostalgia,
"Yiyeta Harbor, it has been such a long ti since I’ve been here."
Unexpectedly, the council had sent this person, and Tic had a feeling that it spelled trouble. Fortunately, a familiar figure quickly descended from the carriage following behind.
It was a very young male wizard, who appeared to be only in his twenties, with a handso face and a light smile that involuntarily induced a good impression from those who saw it.
Lynn too observed the two n, pausing particularly on the distinctly different wizard badges on their chests.
Two Great Wizards?
He had no recollection of the leading middle-aged male wizard and couldn’t guess his identity, but the other was quite recognizable. A Great Wizard so young could only be one person, the renowned "Star of Magic" August from Wizard Land!
Philip, Kevin, and the others exchanged glances and imdiately realized that sothing seed amiss.
Normally, when academic symposiums were organized, the council would symbolically send a formal Wizard to notify them. But this ti, they had sent two Great Wizards at once, causing a vague disquiet amongst the wizards of the Yiyeta School.
