Chapter 63
ntal Strength Sharing (Tone it down, Chapter 55 blew up again)
After enjoying a brief mont of true "princess" service.
"Ti to get up. I will teach you the complete Bramble Loop ditation."
"I have improved the ditation thod twice, and the effect has significantly increased. However, there will be a certain degree of pain during the ditation."
Olivia waved her hand nonchalantly. "Go ahead, I am ready."
Lucy first recited the entire modified ditation thod to Olivia, then took a dark purple Calming Flower from the experintal table.
A aningful smile curved at the corner of her lips.
"Here, eat this first."
Princess Olivia took the herb, feeling that sothing was off, but couldn’t quite figure out what was wrong. She hesitated for a mont but still tilted her head back and swallowed the herb.
"Ugh—"
A sudden burning sensation in her throat made the princess let out a muffled groan. Her slender fingers involuntarily gripped the bedsheet tightly. Lucy imdiately embraced her trembling body from behind, her voice sounding close to Olivia’s ear.
"Hold on. The pain stimulates the active fluctuations of your ntal strength. If you don’t want to experience this again, rember this special resonance frequency of ntal strength well..."
Clenching her teeth, Olivia steadied herself and quickly entered a ditative state with Lucy’s help.
As the effect of the Calming Flower gradually faded, Olivia slowly opened her eyes, her gaze flickering with delight.
"It really worked!"
She could clearly feel that, under the stimulation of the drug, her ditation efficiency had increased by nearly thirty percent.
Unlike Lucy, who could instantly complete upgrades through the system, Olivia needed repeated practice to achieve the best ditation effect.
In other words, she would still need to take the Calming Flower several more tis as an aid.
"I still have to keep being your little lab rat?" Olivia complained with a sulky face, but as she recalled that warm embrace just now, the tips of her ears quietly flushed red.
At this mont, Lucy revealed a mysterious smile. "I think I have discovered another function of Genetic Resonance."
"What function?!" Olivia imdiately perked up.
"You'll know after I finish ditating." As Lucy spoke, she had already sat cross-legged and entered a ditative state.
At first, Olivia was still full of confusion, but as ti passed, she was surprised to find that her ntal strength was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After the ti of one hourglass, she finally confird it — Genetic Resonance enabled "ntal Strength Sharing"!
When one party entered deep ditation, the other could also gain a 50% ditation bonus.
Even more delightful was that this effect still worked when both were ditating simultaneously, effectively increasing their cultivation efficiency by half.
However, the test also revealed so limitations: the resonance range did not exceed ten steps, and when one party suffered a ntal shock, the other would share 30% of the damage.
"Looks like your decision to move into my dormitory was truly a wise one," Lucy raised an eyebrow and said.
Princess Olivia proudly lifted her chin. "This princess’s decisions have always been wise."
The two exchanged a smile and continued imrsing themselves in ditation.
They only woke up after reaching the day’s ditation limit.
Outside, the starry sky was full. There were still three hourglass turns until dawn.
Olivia sat at the bedside, gently stroking the dormitory’s only wooden bed.
This single bed was clearly not ant for two people. A faint milky scent unique to Lucy still lingered on the sheets.
As if possessed, she picked up the pillow and lightly sniffed it.
"Do you want to sleep for a while?" The black-haired girl blinked her eyes and patted the bed casually, as if unintentionally.
Lucy shook her head and declined. "I need to sort out the recent dissection specins."
For her, the existing witchcraft models were already sufficient. She was preparing to attempt the creation of her first "Flesh Construct."
At the sa ti, her study of the root characters in the High Elvish Introductory Dictionary was nearing completion. Presumably, it would soon form into a skill.
"Oh." Olivia responded gloomily, but deliberately left her two porcelain-white long legs exposed outside the quilt, glowing with a pearly sheen under the firelight of the fireplace.
Lucy had just opened the High Elvish Introductory Dictionary when her peripheral vision was firmly caught by that snow-white sight.
The characters on the page suddenly beca difficult to recognize, and she cleared her throat lightly.
"Perhaps taking a short nap wouldn't be so bad."
The world outside the window was cold, but the firewood in the dormitory fireplace made the room as warm as spring.
Lucy closed the High Elvish Introductory Dictionary, the rustling sound of her robe slipping down drowned out by the crackling of the fireplace.
Olivia, whose sche had succeeded, quickly turned over and tried to wrap her arms around Lucy's waist. Just as she wanted to flip over and take the initiative, she suddenly realized an invisible force of ntal strength was firmly pinning her down.
"Despicable! You’re actually using ntal strength!" Olivia protested angrily. "It should have been !"
Lucy reversed her grip and pinned Olivia’s wrist.
"This is called senior sister’s authority!"
The next day
West Tower top-floor study.
Lucy asked about the problems she had encountered these past few days.
"Teacher, I successfully compiled the Anatomy Notes yesterday, but after several attempts, I still couldn’t construct the 'Saint Radiance' into a witchcraft model."
Fernando lifted his eyes from the ancient books, his gaze drifting over the faces of his two disciples.
Lucy appeared calm, her eyes full of thirst for knowledge.
Olivia, on the other hand, looked at Lucy with resentnt written all over her face.
The young people these days were becoming more and more difficult to understand.
"Let take a look first before answering you. As for you, Olivia... though you are a witch, you’ve only recently started practicing witchcraft, so just listen quietly for now."
"Yes, teacher."
Fernando stood up and carefully examined the specin on the table.
"As expected." After a mont, Fernando identified the key issue. "If I am not mistaken, this should be the Saint Radiance Scales Mark of the God of Scales, one of the two main gods of the Golden Cult."
Fernando retrieved a parchnt book from the bookshelf, flipped to a particular page, and handed it to Lucy.
It contained records of everything related to the Golden Cult.
There were two quasi-divine evil gods in the Golden Cult system.
The first was: God of Scales, Helios Aequis, whose authority was to govern the law of 'selling' transactions.
The second was: God of Twin Serpents, rcury Pandos, whose authority was to govern the law of 'buying' transactions.
The 'scales' and 'twin serpents' respectively appeared on Bishop Woven’s forehead and scepter.
The Saint Radiance that Lucy had seized ca from the God of Scales, Helios.
"To convert the Saint Radiance into a magical vein, it is not enough to simply change its energy source. The connection between the Saint Radiance and the evil god must be completely severed."
Lucy asked, "Teacher, what should I do?"
"Within the boundaries of the law, you need to break down the power of law contained in this Saint Radiance... I can assist you, but aren’t you going to try it yourself?"
To break down the law within the frawork of the law.
Lucy pondered as she accepted the specin jar handed back by her teacher.
"Thank you, teacher. I would like to try it myself."
A smile appeared at the corner of Fernando’s mouth.
The life of a wizard was a life of exploring the unknown. Although he could have helped eliminate the law power upon Lucy’s request, he didn’t want his disciple to beco overly reliant on him.
After resolving the first issue, Lucy brought up another question.
"Teacher, I wish to learn so knowledge about Flesh Constructs."
This ti, Fernando did not refuse. He imdiately began explaining Anatomical Constructology.
