Chapter 105: Discovery and Invitation (I)
On the long table with flickering candles, a thick parchment book was spread out in front of the black-haired wizard's eyes, densely packed, and the messy handwriting was almost numb, and even completely blurred in many places, or obscured by the words behind it.

Obviously, what Isaac Grantham wrote could only be understood by Isaac Grantham - for anyone else, it was like a heavenly book, the same words, the same spelling and the same standards, but just trying to read it would make me feel crazy.
But at this moment, Loren was reading hungrily, and next to him was another notebook that Isaac had given him as a farewell gift a long time ago, and the two mirrored the contents of "deciphering" it.
A teenager who had no interest in these things lay on his stomach boredly—the human way of thinking meant nothing to Asriel, not even boring.
"What did you find?"
"Something very interesting. Loren, who frowned, replied without raising his head, but unconsciously curled the corners of his mouth: "It seems that Isaac has been conducting some kind of research since he arrived at Eberden, and these are only a small part of the manuscripts." ”
"For example......" The boy yawned with his hands behind his head.
"For example...... The way he meditated, he seemed to get some inspiration from me. Loren flipped through his notes lightly and muttered to himself, "It seems that Ain has really stimulated him." ”
When the first three of them started making Bright Silver, Isaac was convinced that it was impossible, but he eventually became the designer of the entire project, and made many new discoveries along with it.
Although it is only a small part of the research notes, judging from the above content alone, Isaac has been studying this for some time.
Judging from the deduction in the notes, he seems to be looking for the possibility that the void directly affects reality, rather than by other means—is it possible to make the void a 'energy' existence that directly interferes with the form of matter. ”
"Energy?"
"It's like charcoal that burns, a hurricane that blows windmills, but the Void is much more advanced and powerful than these - if the Void blade of 'Bright Silver' can tear through steel, why can't it be a driving energy?"
"Because there is an essential difference between the two, and the void is not 'energy' - this is a misconception, a big mistake. ”
The young man who whispered softly got up, and his scarlet pupils suddenly had a little more light: "But...... It's still an interesting idea, and I guess the wizards never imagined it, right?"
"Of course not! Because of this, if his point is proven to be valid, the entire wizarding world will be turned upside down, and it will definitely have quite a terrible effect!"
The black-haired wizard narrowed his eyes quietly, if the Corona family's "fluorite lamp" was only a little surprising to him, and it was a traceable invention, then Isaac's concept was simply amazing!
From charcoal and whale oil to coal to oil...... This concept is no longer at the level of "invention", this is the beginning of change!
Of course, all this is still at the stage of "conjecture", and it is not difficult to see from the scribbling on the notes that Isaac himself is constantly rejecting this idea, and seems to be trying to find something "else".
It is unknown what exactly it is, as this note is only a small part of his research, and it is likely that he has already abandoned it.
"But it still gave me a lot of inspiration, and I think I might have fallen into some kind of misunderstanding at first. Loren seemed to suddenly figure out something: "The level of the caster should not be reflected only by releasing spells, in fact, there are other methods." ”
"Something else?"
"Dear Asriel, do you remember when you said that so-called magic is the way the Void distorts reality?" The black-haired wizard suddenly curled the corners of his mouth and laughed very playfully, "And the powerful power of the Void will change reality to a certain extent. ”
"Uh...... That's right. The young man suddenly hesitated, and his bright red eyes blinked: "Something?"
"Then on the other hand, if we interfere with a space with a sufficient strength of Void Power, although it will still consume energy, it will reduce the erosion of the Void on the body, and at the same time, it can also increase the upper limit of the use of high-level spells!"
In short, it's a simplified version of the dream world, a miniature "temple of spirits" - or "magic circles" that allows spellcasters to cast spells that are more powerful or more powerful than they can cast with high-level spells.
Not only that, but if the magic array is further improved, you can also use high-level spells that you don't have memories in this way!
Although this kind of thing is almost meaningless to Loren, his own tolerance for the void is strong enough, and the spirit hall does not have the upper limit of high-level spell memory, and if it really comes to that point, it is more appropriate to let Asriel open the dream space.
But there's no doubt that it's a new way to cast spells, and it could even be called an improvement—if it really works, it's enough to shut up the wizards of the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower.
"But if I want to do that, I need your help. Loren said without raising his head: "I know it's not to deal with some evil god this time, but...... Are you listening to me?"
The black-haired wizard, who had not heard a response for a long time, glanced over, and noticed that the young man who was looking at him had his hands behind his back, and a smile appeared on his face, which was extremely gentle:
"My dear friend, I find you to be more and more attractive, and you are always able to surprise others unexpectedly!"
“...... Let's be honest, do you want to help or not?"
"Don't even think about it. Asriel replied crisply.
“......”
"This is your discovery, if you can't get it yourself, won't it be meaningless?" A charming smile appeared on the young man's pale face, and his scarlet eyes were seductive: "And as friends, the most important thing is to trust each other - so, I absolutely believe in you with all my heart, dear Loren, you can definitely do it alone!"
“...... Why am I not surprised at all?"
The black-haired wizard, who didn't want to deal with this guy at all, just lay down on the bed and went into a meditative state - there was no better "place" than a spiritual temple to experiment with this new way of casting spells.
Why not help Loren Turin with this idea, even if he doesn't help himself, sooner or later, he can do it, right?
"Maybe it's because I'm bored and desperate to see how far my dear friend can go, and it's a lot of fun?"
Asriel muttered, his scarlet eyes flickering slightly, staring at Loren in a meditative state, a vaguely thoughtful expression - he even felt that he was looking forward to it, and that kind of urgency had not really been experienced.
But what this dear friend is going to do this time is not just limited to himself, but something that can have a huge impact.
Changing the "traditional" way of casting spells? It's ridiculous to the extreme, in Asrael's eyes, these wizards, and even many so-called "masters", their use of the spiritual temple and the way they cast spells are all simple and rude to the extreme.
There are only a handful of gifted people who can really comprehend it, and all of them are unaware of it.
Do you want to tell him? Asriel suddenly hesitated - if at the beginning, he was just using this foreign stranger, but now the two sides have become an offensive and defensive alliance.
If something happens to Loren Turin, he may have a way to escape, but the next thing is to start the long wait of decades or even centuries for the next "stranger" to appear.
It's definitely not an easy thing to do, let alone ...... I may not have time to wait any longer.
Under that will, there will only be more and more fallen!
