The development of the Wizard Civilization is beginning to enter the right track.

...

Exiting the council chamber, Lor immediately drafted an article on the continent communication device titled "On the Conjecture of Mechanical Wizard Development Direction" and sent it to Francis, then immersed himself in the exploration of space foundation runes.

Only two construction-type space foundation runes are missing, and his three projects will be able to officially begin research.

...

Center of Milton Continent, top floor of Francis Wizard Tower.

Francis, who was compiling the contents of the previous meeting into a book, received a message from Lor. He immediately paused and opened the message to read it.

He was very curious about what mechanical wizards were, just as curious as he was about how powerful the abyssal wizard with five bloodline fusion was.

Previously, he had also asked Lor these two questions during the meeting, but unfortunately, the answers he received were extremely vague, with only the phrase 'power beyond imagination'.

"The flesh is weak, mechanical ascends.

Mechanical wizard explores the essence of destruction between elemental collisions, molding a new body with magic artifacts, the energy furnace as the core, and the sea of consciousness stored in the energy furnace..."

"The flesh is weak, mechanical ascends." The first sentence of this conjecture shocked Francis to the core.

Completely abandoning the flesh, using magic artifacts as a body, energy furnace as the core, such an outrageous path, was simply counterintuitive for him as a Life Wizard.

Yet the conjecture also mentioned that to safely transfer a wizard's soul and sea of consciousness, the help of Life and Soul Mages is necessary, which is quite absurd... and ingenious.

"Who exactly created this Mechanical Wizard Faction?" A strong curiosity surged in Francis's heart, but then quickly turned into regret.

Today's meeting will greatly influence the future.

If nothing goes as expected, he might never see the wizard who invents this faction in the future.

Well, if everything follows the original direction, he might still not see that person.

After all, in Lor's prophecy, he was the first to die as a Speaker.

"Such a pity." Francis sighed deeply, then saved this conjecture into the database, making a special note of it.

Currently, the small energy furnace needs time for improvements and is not yet the time to create the Mechanical Wizard Faction.

The purpose of making a special note is for the other Speakers to also see it and have an understanding in their minds.

...

North of Milton Continent, top floor of Jerald Wizard Tower.

"Conjecture on the Development Direction of Mechanical Wizards?" Jerald looked at the specially noted message from the communication device, raised an eyebrow, and immediately clicked in.

"The flesh is weak, mechanical ascends... What kind of mind came up with this?" Jerald looked at the contents of the conjecture, completely baffled.

The Mechanical Wizard System is vastly different from the current Elemental Wizard System.

Yet it indeed evolved from the Elemental Wizard System, it's simply absurd.

...

One by one, Speakers opened the "On the Conjecture of Mechanical Wizard Development Direction" that Francis had specially noted.

After reading it, everyone felt that the idea was indeed outrageous.

But upon careful calculation, it indeed had feasibility, completely overturning their previous understanding of the body and soul.

Wizard Calendar, Year 587, March 7.

A joyous event occurred at the second center of Betula Continent, a Third Ring Spatial Mage, not a student of Speaker Lor, was born.

This Third Ring Spatial Mage's name is Moritz Book.

Without Lor's specific guidance, Moritz independently became a Third Ring Spatial Mage in four hundred and twenty years, clearly a genius in space rune understanding.

Moritz's appearance greatly pleased Lor, signifying a new beginning. From now on, more and more spatial mages would reach the Third Ring, greatly accelerating the work of piecing together space foundation runes.

Therefore, upon learning the news for the first time, he rewarded this independent Third Ring Spatial Mage junior with 650,000 contribution points.

Although not enough to advance to the Fourth Ring, it filled two-thirds of the requirement.

Next, Moritz only needed to spend another two hundred years making some contributions to the Wizard Alliance to gather enough contribution points to break through to the Fourth Ring.

It's not that Lor was stingy, reluctant to immediately max out Moritz's contribution points.

In reality, among the Speakers there are unwritten rules about giving contribution points. Granting 650,000 contribution points without any prior contribution is already the limit, giving more would likely cause resentment within the alliance.

Wizard Calendar, Year 650, July 1.

Milton Continent, Francis City.

Good news came from the Energy Research Institute, Honorary Legislator Ernie made great progress in the energy transmission efficiency optimization experiment of small energy furnaces.

Compared to the initial time required to completely transform a magic crystal's elemental energy, now it only takes thirty seconds.

Of course, relative to the requirements for the birth of Mechanical Wizards, the current rate of elemental transformation is still too slow.

...

Wizard Calendar, Year 670, January 1.

Betula Continent, top floor of Lor Wizard Tower.

Lor paused his exploration of the String World, opened the continent communication device, and checked the completion progress of space foundation runes.

"Finally, fifteen construction-type foundation space runes are complete."

Looking at the 'Details and Evaluation on the Completion of Space Foundation Runes' category, which already completed fifteen construction-type foundation space runes, Lor felt a slight joy in his heart.

These fifteen construction-type foundation space runes combined can construct a stable subspace.

This means the three projects he determined over six hundred years ago—Space Ring, Space Expansion, Space Transmission Array—can finally begin.

"Let's conduct the space expansion experiment first." Lor thought to himself: "Space expansion relates to the birth of Mechanical Wizards, it's most important for the Wizard Alliance now."

After deciding on the research order, he cast Earth Vein Traveling Technique, traveling from the study room to a laboratory filled with various magic artifacts, potions, plant juices, and ores.

He took out a palm-sized small energy furnace from the space ring and placed it on a small table glowing faintly with black light.

Then he went to the side to take a bottle of faint black plant juice, applied a Floating Technique to the entire bottle, and poured it all out.

The plant juice had no container to hold it, did not spill on the ground but silently floated in the air.

The plant juice is called Cyan Sky Juice, extracted by crushing and squeezing a rare flower named Cyan Sky Flower, growing on rocks in the Divine Realm Spatial Layer, and mixed with some special materials to concoct.

Its function is to carry and solidify space elements, and it's indispensable in making any space-related artifacts.

Since Lor planted it in the laboratory, ordering a Second Ring Spatial Mage to guide and irrigate it day and night with space elements to accelerate its growth, the Cyan Sky Flower is not that rare anymore.

With a slight thought, a wisp of Cyan Sky Flower juice gently floated along a very light gravity path into the small energy furnace, eventually settling at the bottom edge of the energy furnace.

"Let's try using the Overlapping Technique to combine these fifteen space runes first." Lor condensed fifteen dark runes in his sea of consciousness, and after thinking for a moment, decided to start attempting space expansion with the simple and crude Overlapping Technique.

The so-called Overlapping Technique forcefully merges these space foundation runes, emphasizing sheer force to create a miracle.

It's not that he doesn't understand other space foundation rune structures; just from the rune structures extracted from three Core Witchcraft alone, there are thousands of variations.

But experimentation should start with the simplest methods, shouldn't it?

What if it just works?

"Crack, crack—"

Lor condensed fifteen construction-type foundation space runes in his sea of consciousness, using spiritual power to forcefully compress them together, then through friction, let them randomly combine into an ambiguous structure.

In less than a second, a mass formed by fifteen construction-type foundation space runes, with an unrecognizable shape, quickly took form in his sea of consciousness.

He drew this rune structure out, placing it inside the furnace wall covered by Cyan Sky Juice.

At that moment, a very slight collapse occurred in the space within the small energy furnace wall, leaving a small notch in the furnace.

"Taking shortcuts really doesn't work, let's first try some rune structures from the Void Realm." Lor shook his head a bit disappointedly.

Don't underestimate the Overlapping Technique; some extremely outrageous structures are created this way.

When research hits a bottleneck, this is the best research method.

Through countless random combinations, to find an answer leading to truth.

But he's not at that stage yet, so he'll first attempt the previously accumulated rune structures; if that doesn't work, then he'll reconsider.
