I Pioneered Scientific Magic - Chapter 120

Compared to the disgruntled Barbara and Hank, the wizard apprentices present were brimming with excitement.

In previous promotion ceremonies, there were typically only three to five slots available, leaving most of them watching in anticipation, hoping to earn a valuable spot next year through their hard work.

But this time was different. Everyone had an equal chance, and the extent of their power increase depended solely on how long they could endure inside the alchemical array.<...

"Welcome, everyone, to this gathering!" In the midst of everyone's attention, Nos emerged from the corridor behind the banquet hall, looking at the people present with a gentle smile on his face.

Hank and his companions exchanged glances, a hint of suspicion in their eyes. They had thought that Nos had been missing for some time to break through as a Grand Mage.

But now it seemed that wasn't the case, as they couldn't sense the distinct aura of power from him. It meant that Nos wa...

Under Lynn's continuous prodding, Jonny nodded and quickly took out the notebook he was holding, flipping to the latest page. He pointed to the title and inquired, "Professor, I'm still not quite sure about the Cartesian coordinate system you mentioned today, especially this question..."

"If you want to determine the distance between two coordinate points, you need to use the Pythagorean theorem we discussed earlier. You can mark the differences in the horizontal and vertical coordinate...

After listening to the accounts of several people, Pierce and his companions found it hard to believe, even suspecting if Elok was deceiving them.

The classroom of the Arcane Mathematics was a whole 600 meters away from the training ground, with a towering howling tower several tens of meters high in between. Could they really hit that from here?

But the twelve training dummies with smashed heads and the testimonies of Daka and the others told them that it was all true.

"Professor Lynn, what's the point of learning all this?" Elok asked in a soft voice, looking a bit puzzled.

Elok thought that if it was just about exercising their brains, dealing with indices, square roots, and solving equations would be torturous enough.

Lynn glanced at the equally confused group and smiled before speaking, "Haven't you all been curious about how alchemy can be combined with magic?"

"Are you going to teach us magic involving alchemy, Professor?" Deborah ex...

"Does he want to become... a Grand Wizard?" Barbara exclaimed, her face showing a hint of desire.

This was undoubtedly the dream of every Tier 3 wizard. In the entire world of wizards, there were thousands of official wizards, but the number of those who could truly become Grand Wizards was only a few dozen.

But the problem was, how? Rely on the blood of the Eye of Death?

"This is just our speculation," Hank said with a bit more reason. If advancing were that easy, they woul...

After some less-than-reassuring words from Lynn, White Dove finally stopped crying. She then gazed at him with pitiful eyes.

"Well, don't resist for now. Let me perform a little experiment," Lynn said as he approached White Dove. He placed his hand on her head and then let his spiritual power seep into her ethereal body.

This was the application of psychic magic, "Necro-Control."

A look of uncertain fear appeared on the girl's face. She felt as if something foreign was surgi...

The so-called antimatter, as the name implies, is the reverse state of normal matter! When antimatter and normal matter meet, they annihilate each other, causing an explosion and producing immense energy! Its power lies in the conversion of mass energy produced during annihilation, which is close to one hundred percent!

In contrast, the mass energy conversion ratio of a hydrogen bomb is only around 0.7 percent! In the face of the power of antimatter annihilation, so-called nuclear energ...

At the moment Jonny consumed the magic potion, a strong magical fluctuation enveloped his entire body, and his magical energy seemed to boil within.

The witch's expression gradually turned pained, her eyes closed, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead as if she were struggling with something.

Lynn watched nervously, not daring to disturb Jonny in the midst of his breakthrough. She couldn't assist and could only patiently wait for the potion's effects to wear off.

The next day at noon, Johnny, who had received a notification, knocked on the door and entered only after getting permission.

"Professor Lynn, did you want to see me?" The silver-haired witch closed the door gently, holding her notes on arcane mathematics, and asked with a charming smile.

Lynn didn't rush to discuss business but instead looked at Johnny curiously and inquired, "After all these days, don't you have something you want to say to me?"

Since arriving in the land ...

On their way back, the airship had been transformed into a "ship," and coupled with the need to drag the remains of the giant beast, the group found themselves adrift at sea for three long days.

Due to the previous disputes, everyone remained on high alert throughout the journey, even refraining from closing their eyes during sleep.

In this tense atmosphere of mutual suspicion, Lynn had no intention of provoking any conflicts deliberately. After all, this "ship" was incredibly sma...

If you want to trigger a hydrogen explosion, you need to keep the hydrogen gas in the air between 4% and 75.6%. And for a more powerful explosion, the ratio of hydrogen and oxygen should be around 2:1!

No doubt, Lynn achieved it!

Although it's not the standard ratio, it's pretty close!

"Multi-Fireburst Art!"

As they continued counting, Nos and his group had already started casting their spells the moment the missile hit the airbag. In an instant, dozens of ferocious fi...

"Glacial Curtain," "Subordinate Magic Barrier," "Mage Armor," "Magic Ward!"

Facing the massive tentacles crashing down, the people present deployed their most powerful protective magic. Several layers of Glacial Curtains stood in front, but in the next moment, they were pierced as if they were made of mere bubbles.

Even the third-circle protection spell, the Magic Ward, couldn't withstand the wrathful power of the Eye of Death. It crumbled like a withered leaf in less than two sec...

"It's just like this, take it down!" exclaimed Nos with immense excitement.

Hank and the others watched the terrifying sea monster struggling on the surface of the sea, unable to do anything about it. They felt an uncontrollable surge of excitement.

The power of the Eye of Death was evident to them. If they were to fight on the sea, even their three-ring mages wouldn't be enough to pose a threat.

And now, this creature was helpless, being mercilessly battered to death by the...

"Save me, Lord Nos..."

The apprentice who had been thrown off the airship continued to struggle and wail, being sucked into the surging maelstrom.

"Bring me up!" Lord Nos shouted, injecting a sufficient amount of hydrogen into the airship. Bit by bit, the airship rose into the air just before being drawn into the giant whirlpool.

As the airship lifted from the water, everyone present let out a collective sigh of relief. If they had been pulled into that vortex, they would al...

In the nighttime sky above Iyeta Harbor, a massive airship sailed slowly towards the open sea, concealed by the darkness.

"This altitude must be over a thousand meters, right?" Hank remarked as the sea breeze continued to brush against him. Looking into the distance, he could even make out the city of the harbor below.

"About that. At this height, no one should be able to spot us," Nos replied, his expression relaxing.

Since the airship they were on used magical steam power ...

After finalizing the details of the hunt for the 'Eye of Death,' the meeting was officially concluded.

Separated consciousness returned to Lynn, and he extended his hand, bringing five ethereal coins with him.

Recalling the earlier prompt from the AI, Lynn began to speculate that these coins were somehow related to souls.

Perhaps one coin represented a human life?

The AI's prompt rang out again. Lynn hesitated for a moment but chose to convert the coins i...

In the chaotic space, only five people remained.

Among them, three men and two women, including himself. Lynn glanced around, hesitating to start the conversation due to the lack of information.

The witch beside him couldn't contain herself any longer and directly asked, "Nos, I've managed to get the High-grade Magic Crystal Cannon you wanted. It took a lot of effort. Now, can you tell us what you need these things for?"

High-grade Magic Crystal Cannon? Lynn was immediately ...

The scene felt like a whirlwind, surrounded by darkness, with about a dozen shadowy figures forming a circle in front of me. Faint traces of magic shimmered on their bodies.

I scanned the surroundings. All of them appeared ephemeral, like unstable water ripples, making it hard to discern their exact features. I could only make out their height, weight, and subtle changes in their facial expressions.

"A virtual environment has been detected. Would you like to analyze it and search ...

"How is this even possible?" Raphael instinctively wanted to retort. While he couldn't deny the accuracy of what Jisun had said, the question of whether the continent beneath their feet was flat or spherical remained unsettled.

Relying solely on the sails of the sea was too hasty of a judgment!

Raphael was not the only one with such thoughts. Compared to the readily verifiable experiments of freefall, the concept of a spherical planet was the most incredulous one.

With the beginning of the "Afterword" and the appearance of Miyuki, I was left speechless.

The protagonist's death, two years later.

First, her long hair had been transformed into a short bob.

Her lifeless eyes and pale appearance made me doubt if she was really the Miyuki I knew.

"As the Afterword of 'The Empty Streets' suggests, it tells the story of her being left alone in the city, just as the title of the game implies."

"...."

In Miyuki's Afterword, un...

Today, at the hospital we visited, the protagonist received a terminal diagnosis...

In that moment, it felt as if something inside me split apart with a thunderous crack.

What's happening? Why?

From that moment on, the protagonist in the game could no longer pursue a normal relationship with Miyuki.

It was like their vision would suddenly blur, or Miyuki's appearance would distort, as if in excruciating pain.

Every time this happened, I had to frantically mash bu...

"Excuse me, sir. I'm sorry, but just now, all of Miyuki's scenarios have been sold out."

My world came crashing down.

"Sir...? Sir? Can you hear me?"

The sky spun around. On the other side of the singing heavens, Miyuki-chan bid me farewell.

It's all over. It's ruined.

The one who snatched my own Miyuki-chan right before my eyes will be cursed. I'll curse them for life!!

In response to Yuki's voice, I slowly raised my hea...

I briefly connected to the TV and tried to resume writing my diary, but an hour had slipped away.

I decided to play Super Marigi World to check if there were any issues with the machine and controller. Thankfully, everything seemed to be in perfect condition. It seemed like I'd have to approach my gaming with a fresh and clear mind tomorrow morning, rather than in my exhausted state.

Anyway, getting back to the events at the release venue, they had prepared a limited edition packa...

"Then, we'll count on you even when you're back," Rob said, giving me a friendly pat on the back as we said our goodbyes.

"Honestly, I can't guarantee we'll fully embrace the concept you mentioned. After discussing it with Chandra, we've decided to focus on GPU performance," he continued.

"Alright. If you need anything during the development process, just talk to Ellis," I replied.

Right then, Chandra, who had been seeing Rob off with me, chimed in, "Take care. If you ever n...

Combining two consoles isn't exactly a groundbreaking idea.

Back in the past, in '92, there was an attempt to enhance hardware performance by developing the NEGA CD as a peripheral for the NEGA Drive, a method I'm well aware of.

Inspired by NEC's high-performance Super CD-ROM-equipped PC Engine Duo, NEGA produced an additional console model with a CD-ROM drive on the right side of the NEGA Drive.

Connecting the two devices was aimed at not only using CD-ROMs but also boostin...

The 1990s were a period of significant upheaval in the history of gaming. Some companies hastily entered the console industry, only to face bitter defeat and disappear. However, looking at it from a different perspective, it was a time that could be hard to find as exciting.

In the early 90s, with the advancement of sprite technology, 2D graphics saw a remarkable rise. Midway through the decade, home consoles started releasing games that made use of 3D graphics.

"1... 100 million yen!?"

The mention of a 100 million yen bonus made the eyes of everyone in the room, including Rob and Chandra, widen significantly. Rob quickly calculated the current exchange rate and then spoke with an astonished expression.

"Hey, Mr. Kang. Is this some kind of joke? Even if you have a lot of money, that's close to a million dollars!"

Of course, it was an extraordinarily generous offer for a bonus.

But I had reached this decision because I believed...

"What do you want to talk to me about?" I asked.

"I want to emphasize that investing in the quality of the product is crucial unless you intend to use all that money for the afterlife's gambling. If we continue with a low-cost product for the console, the defect rate will undoubtedly increase after its release. In that case, consumers will become dissatisfied. The product's reliability will decrease, damaging Mintendo's image. After a few repairs, talk about the product's inherent flaws...
