Chapter 475: Chapter 474: Increasingly Perfect
Locke was always one to shine when possible, never missing an opportunity to stand out.
Before he even left the great tower, sorcerers had already approached him, eagerly bombarding him with questions. Locke, never one to refuse visitors, answered each query.
“Enough, we’ll ask questions collectively later. This ss is unseemly.”
Seeing that Locke was about to lose control of his tongue, Ivan stepped in to stop him, leaving the others reluctantly silenced.
It wasn’t surprising that others were so excited; never before had such a perfect experintal subject erged from the massive tests.
What they didn’t know was that Locke actually possessed Spiritual Body traits, making him akin to a half-elent creature.
...
It had been Ivan’s first ti cultivating a Secret thod Body Double, and without much experience, Locke’s construction ended up complex, even incorporating Insect Traits.
One could tell from Locke’s original appearance; he had blue wings, blue antennae, and black-golden fleshy crests.
However, Locke followed Ivan’s principles and rarely revealed his true form. Masquerading as a sorcerer was no trouble for him, let alone posing as a human. Thus, most of the sorcerers present saw him as human.
It must be said, the One Body Multiple Manifestations Secret Technique was exceptionally unique.
“Are you hurt?”
“Yes, but it’s not a big deal. I can recover on my own without needing treatnt or rest.”
“Do you know how you got hurt?”
“I noticed that at the 511th ter in the tunnel, I was affected by an unknown force field. Inside the protective layer, tiny blades of spatial chaos ford, and at 599 ters—”
Born with an affinity for space and having studied spatial knowledge, Locke’s sensations naturally differed from other creatures.
He was also Ivan’s body double. Under Ivan’s directions, he knew how to respond to help the sorcerers identify the problems imdiately and then make targeted improvents.
After hearing his response, the sorcerers understood why the great scholar had insisted on having people co.
Indeed, with Mr. Locke’s help, testing and adjustnts could be expedited.
“Try again?”
“No problem.”
Seeing that Locke was truly alright, Ivan instructed him to undergo a second test.
Locke agreed imdiately.
The testing and adjustnts were like this, tediously repeated until all minor issues were addressed.
Three days later, the Silkworm Queen also underwent the sa tests, over and over again.
The next day, Ivan prepared to take charge himself.
“This isn’t right.”
“Absolutely not; the great scholar is the cornerstone of our team. If anything happens to him, we can no longer continue our project. This is highly inappropriate.”
“Yes, yes, how about I go instead? I want to experience it too.”
As soon as he announced, he was t with strong opposition from the others, with many volunteering to take his place until further improvents were made.
Ivan understood the other sorcerers’ concerns, but he was unwilling to listen; he had his own reasons to insist.
He had bloodlines from the Star Realm within him, giving him an even stronger spatial affinity than Locke; there were virtually no safety concerns. By personally participating, the insights gained would be more authentic and ticulous, aiding further adjustnts.
“My mind is made up, just follow my lead.”
“Don’t worry; after I finish testing, it will be your turn. Be ready.”
Despite opposition, Ivan chose to disregard the majority.
Having a different body constitution, he was indeed an exception. After he completed his evaluation, the others would need to test as well to extensively eliminate any hidden issues.
In short, they needed to progress step-by-step, minimizing the risks as much as possible.
“Also, once everyone has tested without issues, we can invite others. It’s ti these inventions were revealed.”
Before anyone else could speak, Ivan announced another decision, ready to present his first results to the outside world.
He wasn’t afraid of being copied. The sorcerer world highly valued intellectual property, and sorcerers maintained integrity in this respect.
Like back in Mongna Ant Land Cottage, those three families had secretly deciphered the Black Magic Wind Fire Bundle Array platform and bypassed him to sell it. If known to the outside, most sorcerers would condemn them, greatly reducing their reputation. These families were just used to oppressing apprentices within the academy and didn’t expect to be exposed.
“This—”
“Sa as before, my mind is made up.”
Ivan insisted on making a high-profile choice, and although others did not quite understand and thought he was trying to get more support from higher-ups, they did not say much, as everything was developing in a good direction.
He announced the decision and then walked towards the outside of the facility.
A short while later, enthusiastic applause and sporadic cheers broke out in this isolated area.
…
Unknown when it started, new rumors had erged in Sky Flow Valley, quickly spreading from one laboratory to another, sparking discussions among so sorcerers.
“So such a grand project has yielded results already?”
“We don’t know about the results yet, but indeed, there is news claiming they are inviting other sorcerers to the exploration area to witness their recent achievents, reportedly under the direct instruction of that great scholar.”
“Is that possible? So must be out of their minds.”
“Possible or not, we’ll see when we go there and have a look; then everything will be clear.”
That was the teleportation array the School of Space valued the most. After hearing the recent news, most sorcerers maintained a skeptical attitude, believing so were rely seeking attention.
Now, there might be so excitent to watch.
“Ha ha ha, he dares to do this; he’s practically humiliating himself. Just watch how I expose him.”
As one of the individuals least hoping for the project’s success, Tuya, upon hearing such news, did not hide his malice and burst into laughter in front of Greni.
“Greni, is the news confird?”
“It’s confird from Gloria; this isn’t a rumor but real news.”
“Ha ha, since it’s real news, let’s spread it more; let’s see how they wrap things up.”
Upon hearing Greni’s response, Tuya decided to add fuel to the fire, determined to let this news blaze across not just Sky Flow Valley but beyond.
Thus, with so pushing the waves, the news spread even more wildly.
Outside Sky Flow Valley, tens of thousands of miles away, a small airship was speeding towards Sky Flow Valley, as fast as lightning.
The splendid airship displayed a fluttering banner embroidered with a distinctive pattern, familiar folks would recognize it as the illustrious Fitzgerald family crest.
“Sorcerer Beiluo.”
“What is it?”
On the deck, soone hurried to a cabin door and knocked.
The door promptly opened, revealing a young-looking sorcerer standing inside.
“There’s so interesting news from over there; Tanaya is reluctant to return, and it’s probably hugely related to this.”
“Sorcerer Tewu, please elaborate.”
Both n ca from prominent sorcerer families, one Fitzgerald, the other Gardner, and both were associated with Tanaya.
Tewu Fitzgerald was Tanaya’s cousin.
Beiluo Gardner was the suitor soon-to-be-engaged to Tanaya.
Not long ago, Beiluo had joined the Fitzgerald family’s airship with his followers and boarded the ship, rushing together to Sky Flow Valley, located at the northwest corner of Sharp Wind Continent.
“So people have gathered several Level 3 Sorcerers in Sky Flow Valley to study the teleportation array, and they’ve apparently achieved so results, claiming they would reveal them soon.” Urged by Beiluo, Tewu didn’t hide the information:
“Listen, doesn’t this sound absurd?”
“Tanaya?” Beiluo frowned.
“No, another person; you’ve definitely heard his na.” Tewu shook his head slightly.
“Who?”
“Ivan Marichardon.”
Hearing that na, Beiluo seed to have thought of sothing, his expression suddenly turned very stern, so stern it could drip water.
Tewu noticed the change in his face, a bit puzzled.
“Do you have a grudge against that man?”
“Never t him.”
Beiluo denied it, unwilling to discuss it further.
Tewu didn’t ask more about it and continued to argue about the teleportation array research, claiming it was all a scam, and Tanaya might have been fooled, noting that his sister was sotis easily deceived.
On the airship, besides Tewu and Beiluo, there were many others from the Fitzgerald family; they had co on a mission this ti.
