Chapter 30: "Nature's Gift" (Congratulations 21)

Atomic Universe, top of the Tower of Babel.

The entire hall was covered with silvery-white, light green, and transparent lines, which extended from the walls, floors, ceilings, and voids, forming a dense and complex magic array.

In the center where these lines converge, a liquid filled with intense vitality condenses, like the source of a hot spring, and the circular altar where it is located flows outward.

Looking at the vibrant verdant green inside the altar, Lucien smiled at Natasha beside him, "The 'Gift of Nature' ceremony is ready. ”

"But how is this different from what I've heard from Granny Hathaway?" Natasha looked around with interest over the legendary ritual components.

A long time ago, she heard from Hathaway about the general scene of the "Gift of Nature" ceremony, because it was Fernando and Hathaway who helped Douglas preside over the ceremony, and this legendary ritual of extending life is based on the "Elven Tree Fruit" as the core, through the transformation of the magic array and the corresponding complex steps, the power inside is extracted, and the soul and body of the recipient are fused in the form of illusory magic patterns, so as to achieve the purpose of prolonging life.

This is the highest level of life ritual, depending on the quality of the elven tree fruit, the quality of the ritual materials, whether the ritual works perfectly, and the strength of the recipient himself, it can increase life from 3,000 to 6,000 years.

But now the scene in the hall was so different, Natasha didn't see the Elven Tree Fruit, nor did she find the corresponding components of the magic array - although she didn't know anything like it, the appearance and operation of the part of the magic required for the "Gift of Nature" ritual were very obvious. You can see it at a glance.

And most importantly, there will be no "pool water" similar to a hot spring in the center of the "Gift of Nature" ceremony!

Lucien maintained a smiling expression: "You forgot, we still have the 'Fountain of Youth', so I combined its characteristics and modified the 'Natural Gift' ritual, although because the quality of the 'Fountain of Youth' is not as good as the Elf Tree Fruit, it cannot increase the upper limit, but it can effectively increase the base value, so the current 'Natural Gift' ritual can extend life for five thousand to six thousand years." It can be used by two people. ”

"'Fountain of Youth'?" Natasha remembered Lucien's harvest in the Necromantic Realm. Then he looked at the hot spring-like pool water in the center of the magic ceremony, and his heart was suddenly relieved, the "Fountain of Youth" should be in this state, "Don't need to find Hathaway and Your Excellency the Storm Lord to preside over them?"

The vast majority of legendary ceremonies are presided over by legendary powerhouses.

Lucien looked at the "pool water" in the center, which fused the power of the "Elven Tree Fruit" and the "Fountain of Youth". Smiled: "No. I've improved this ritual without the need for another Legendary officiant. As long as there is a legendary mage among the recipients, it will be able to be effectively guided and controlled, and there will be no problems. It is a life-extending ritual that integrates simplicity, convenience, efficiency and comfort. ”

Hearing Lucian's most abrasive description, Natasha couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Haluha, I now believe that those strange and funny advertising slogans in the 'Voice of Mysteries' and 'World Truth' channels came up with you......"

"Didn't I admit it frankly all along?" said Lucien, spreading his hands.

Natasha stopped laughing and became serious: "What next?"

"Well, just soak in the water of the altar like a hot spring, and the ritual will drive the power of the 'Spirit Tree Fruit' and the 'Fountain of Youth' to soak into our bodies. Lucien said with a serious expression, "In order to ensure the effect, you can't wear any magic items. ”

"What?" Natasha was stunned for a moment, then said with a smirk, "You need a strip-naked soaking ritual? You wouldn't have done it on purpose, would you?"

"Am I that kind of person? This is determined by the nature of the Fountain of Youth. Lucien was serious.

"Really?" Natasha laughed, "Actually, I like this kind of creativity." ”

As she spoke, the lilac court dress she was wearing slowly fell to the ground like a fluttering butterfly, and the rest of the clothes were also flying one by one, slowly but seductively, revealing her infinitely beautiful body little by little.

Just like every time she takes a bath, Natasha stretched out her toes and tapped the pool water, and then walked step by step towards the center of the emerald green pool, her body gradually submerged by the water, and suddenly, she turned her head and looked at Lucien floating outside the altar, smiling playfully and with a faint charm: "Come on, don't be ashamed." ”

............

Time seemed to pass quickly, the emerald green "pool water" became less and less, and both Lucien and Natasha felt the liquid slowly melt into their bodies and souls, bringing a wonderful feeling of cleanness, freshness, ethereal clarity, and the whole person was completely relaxed.

"The ritual has been resolved, and as long as it is not interrupted, it will be completely successful, and even now, I feel that my life has improved a lot, about 4,000 years. In the quiet atmosphere, Lucien suddenly spoke, his voice lazy because of the relaxation that came from the depths of his soul.

Natasha leaned on Lucien and said equally lazily: "I feel that the stress, anxiety and worry about many things that I have accumulated have been washed away by the spring water, well, I plan to find a time to hold the 'music festival' in Rentat." ”

In such a situation, she thinks of what to say.

"Music festival?" Lucien asked in a rather ethereal voice.

"Yes, I've always wanted to hold a famous 'Rentat Music Festival' in the mainland, which can be regarded as a place to send my miss to Aalto, but in the past few years, Lentat has not many musicians, but it is rich in playwrights, until this year, due to the foundation laid in the previous years, a group of very good musicians have emerged, I am ready to start this matter, hehe, influenced by you, Lentat is more popular light music and all kinds of informal symphonies, I hope this can become the difference between Rentat music and Aalto music...... ”

Although she likes Aalto, Natasha does not have the idea of turning Rentat into a second Aalto, she respects the people and customs here, "When the time comes, I hope to start the 'festival' with your Valkyrie opera." ”

Lucien underestimated the difficulty of creating opera, coupled with the fact that it was truly original and demanded excellence. So it wasn't until the electronic double-slit interference experiment that the work, which took nearly four years, was completed, and was being rehearsed by opera singers and orchestras.

"It's a gift for you, and you can see it whenever you want. Lucien had no opinion, "But we have to wait until we go to the 'Chaotic Starry Sky' and get the 'Space-Time Slate'." ”

He was already ready to set off for the 555th Layer of the Endless Abyss "Chaotic Starry Sky" in the near future.

"Of course, all my attention right now is on the Endless Abyss and the 'Chaotic Starry Sky'......" Natasha sighed contentedly.

Ten minutes later, the emerald green "pool" disappeared completely, and layers of light green translucent light surrounded Lucian and Natasha.

All the parts of the surrounding magical ritual lit up, and the energy converged, creating a huge and special pressure.

The transparent light shrank violently. Drilled into the souls and flesh of Lucien and Natasha. A faint natural fragrance emanates from their bodies.

"It's about 5,600 years of life. Lucien said, based on feedback from the ceremony and his own condition.

Natasha smiled: "So, I will have a long enough 'race' for you to catch up, not to fall behind in a short period of time and then be frustrated and admit defeat! I will definitely be able to catch up with you!"

She clenched her fists, and her "fighting spirit" was high.

............

Fort St. Ivan. The capital of the Northern Shahran Empire.

"His Majesty the Pope. Lucien Evans has only one paper recently. No, a book, "Fundamentals of Mathematics". It is mainly to solve the development problems in the field of mathematics and physics and put forward some problems. "Saint" Clement gave Pope Berkovsky the information.

Berkovsky, who has a typical big Shahran Empire nose, bowed slightly: "It's no problem, thank you, Clement." ”

In the Northern Church, the Pope is only half a rank higher than the members of the College of Cardinals, and does not have the authority and status of the Pope, so his words are quite polite.

"Your Majesty, why do you have to pay attention to the progress of Lucien Evans' research, and what does this have to do with us?" asked Clement, puzzled.

Berkovsky said in a solemn tone: "Lucian Evans has been to the Immortal Corridor and opened the Immortal Chamber, and his research results are likely to reflect this aspect of things, such as the previous quantum superposition state that gave me some new ideas. ”

"I see. Clement took his leave, left St. Ivan's Basilica, and returned to his own Basilica of St. Gono.

As soon as he entered the prayer room, his calm and quiet face showed a gloomy expression of hatred, and he whispered to himself, "Lucien, Evans......"

At the same time, he drew a cross on his chest, short up and down, long left and right!

The secret sect of the Cross Cross within the Northern Church was created by him and the "Lord of Hell", otherwise with the ability of the Lord of Hell, it would be impossible for him to infiltrate the Northern Church to such an astonishing extent.

Although Lucien's sabotage of their plan was secretive, Clement still knew who was the murderer who killed Ivanovsky, so he was ready to send his men to teach him a lesson and let him go to hell to confess his actions.

However, Lucian's strength increased faster than he imagined, and every time he sent one of his subordinates over, he would find that Lucian's strength was beyond the scope of what he could handle, so he had to resend it - this kind of secret church could not be as easy to dispatch as the Southern Church, and then, repeating the previous process, when Clement freed up his hand and planned to find an opportunity on his own, he learned the news of Lucian's promotion to legend.

There is no news that makes him more angry than this, before he can carry out the revenge plan on his side, the strength of the other party continues to jump and improve, reaching a level that is difficult to solve under normal circumstances, how many years has it been!

So, Clement wisely aborted the plan, and no one would take revenge on a legend for such a trivial matter, unless he was a madman like the Abyssal Will!

"Sure enough, strength is the foundation of everything...... Clement prayed before the cross.

While praying, he suddenly felt a sacred and inexplicable aura gathering on the cross in front of him, and a little milky white holy light rippled out.

Then, a handsome angel projection like a woman appeared in front of him, and the thirty-six wings behind him slowly spread.

"The King of Angels?"

Clement blurted out in astonishment, he didn't understand why the king of angels would be able to penetrate the heavy defensive projections of the church, nor why the king of angels who cooperated with the southern church would appear in front of him! (To be continued......
