Chapter 454: 440 Energy Body and Mass-Energy Equation
Since arriving in this world, Lynn had been pondering one question, what exactly is Magic Power?
Or rather, what are its characteristics…
Centuries of research by Wizards had laid so foundation for him, they had identified quite a few characteristics of Magic Power, like its ability to be manipulated by spiritual power, to be influenced by specially arranged runes, and most importantly, its capacity for Magic Mimicry!
While creating the periodic table of elents, Lynn discovered through nurous experints that when Wizards cast spells to mimic various elents, the amount of Magic Power consud correlated positively with an elent’s atomic number, period, and family group!
The most significant factor was the atomic number, which is the sequence number of an elent in the periodic table.
This number is arranged according to the quantity of protons (nuclear charge) within the nucleus of an atom.
For example, hydrogen’s atomic number is one, aning the number of protons in its nucleus is also one; uranium has an atomic number of 92, which ans there are ninety-two protons in its nucleus!
The sa goes for other elents.
If an elent with a higher atomic number loses too much mass, its position in the periodic table will change, becoming a different elent.
Indeed, like the legendary Stone to Gold, fundantally changing the nature of an elent.
Nuclear fission and the decay of radioactive elents are the best examples!
Conversely, two light atomic nuclei can also combine into a heavier nucleus, which is what’s known as nuclear fusion!
If there are rules, then calculation is possible.
For instance, helium, with an atomic number of two, is composed of two protons and two neutrons; assu the Magic Power needed for mimicry is six.
While lithium, with an atomic number of three, consists of three protons and four neutrons; suppose the Magic Power consud for mimicry is eleven.
Then, by setting up a simple equation, it can be deduced that the Magic Power consud for mimicking a proton is one, and for a neutron, it is two!
Of course, this is the most perfect and simplest model, reality is not so easy; mimicking a lithium elent consus only about sixty percent more Magic Power than helium.
Clearly, there’s more influencing the consumption of Magic Power than just mass.
It’s possible that Magic Power is consud in the process of mimicking an elent’s structure, and this amount should be discounted in calculations, or perhaps the influence of the relatively lightweight electrons orbiting the nucleus needs to be considered…
Lynn wrote down all these variables that might affect Magic Power consumption. If he could eliminate the influence of other factors, he would be able to roughly calculate how much Magic Power was needed to mimic each fundantal particle.
Before he knew it, an entire sheet of manuscript paper was covered with complex formulas.
But calculating this value was just the beginning.
He still needed to solve the second problem, how to make the mimicked elents beco physically existent material!
This was the biggest challenge…
Lynn frowned and pondered for a while, and quickly thought of the answer, which was energy!
Only energy could achieve this feat!
Lynn had an epiphany and imdiately wrote down a variation of the Mass-Energy Equation on the paper.
m=E/c^2
It ans that mass is equal to energy divided by the speed of light!
According to Lynn’s estimation, as long as enough energy is provided, then using Magic Power mimicked elents as a basis, it would be possible to realize the conversion between energy and mass, and with this, create an Energy Body capable of carrying a soul!
Legendary… This is the thod to ascend to legendary status!
Having glimpsed the path ahead, excitent was unavoidable on Lynn’s face. However, after so careful calculations with a pen, he imdiately encountered a significant problem.
That was the terrifying amount of energy required for converting mass, which was almost inconceivable!
According to the Mass-Energy Equation, one gram of mass is equivalent to ninety quadrillion joules of energy, which is akin to the explosion of twenty thousand tons of TNT or a critical mass nuclear explosion!
And with his own body weighing around a hundred pounds, converting it entirely into energy would certainly amount to an astronomical figure!
He must have overlooked sothing…
Lynn furrowed his brows in thought, stretched out his hand, and instantly a basic hydrogen elent took shape, followed by helium, lithium, beryllium…
Soon, forty-nine elents were floating above the palm of his hand, constantly revolving around each other.
Lynn picked up his pen and began writing on a piece of paper again.
Magic Power itself is a special form of energy, and it should account for a major portion of the consumption when mimicking elents, so the required energy should be much less than the calculated figures.
As for why Magic Power has such properties, further research is needed.
But even if the ultimate energy consud is only one-tenth of the expected amount, that’s still a substantial number.
Lynn touched his chin.
He could think of several devices that could provide such imnse energy, with the most efficient being the matter-antimatter annihilation device!
But since he lacked the equipnt to extract antimatter, he had to settle for the next best option, a nuclear fusion reactor!
Lynn calculated how powerful a nuclear reactor would be needed to supply the energy, then he considered that his own body already contained a significant amount of mass, which might be utilized through so magic to further reduce the energy consumption…
“Strange, where did that false god find so much energy?” Lynn was very puzzled. In his efforts to create a form built of Magic Power and filled with energy, he had racked his brains, even resorting to using a nuclear fusion reactor, yet he still worried it wouldn’t be enough to sustain the consumption.
How did “Ella” manage to ascend to beco a legend?
“Could it be using Soul Power?” Lynn suddenly thought of this possibility, and a chill ran up his spine.
When he was in the harbor town, the smart brain had once suggested using, energy reserve
“071, according to my equation, how many people’s souls would need to be consud to build an Energy Body?” Lynn asked out of curiosity.
“Without accounting for energy loss, it would require the Soul Power of two hundred thousand people, or fifty thousand apprentices, or ten thousand full-fledged Wizards.”
Upon hearing this number, Lynn gasped in shock.
That wasn’t even considering energy lost… Otherwise, it could double, or even multiply several tis over!
To think, there aren’t even ten thousand full-fledged Wizards in all of Wizard Land, and it wouldn’t be possible for the other side to target Priests and Bishops. That leaves only the poor!
It has to be said, “Ella”, you really are ruthless!
By defeating one of her avatars, it was as if he had depleted the pseudo-god’s Soul Power reserve by the hundreds of thousands.
It’s just unclear how many souls “Ella” has harvested over the years.
A few million? Tens of millions? Or a billion?
After so consideration, Lynn felt it couldn’t be that exaggerated. The Church couldn’t possibly harvest the soul of every deceased person; at the very least, they had to be Believers, otherwise the power possessed by the other side would be too terrifying.
