I Created Scientific Magic-Chapter 141 - 128: Remodeling the Virtual Domain (Please Subscribe)

In the next two days, Yiyeta Harbor was engulfed in fear.

The tragedy that occurred in the southern district had spread throughout the entire seaside city, and although Tics and his companions were determined to stop it, they were utterly powerless.

After all, the incident’s impact was too widespread; thousands of impoverished people who fled the southern district had witnessed their friends and family die inexplicably, with their souls harvested, giving rise to countless rumors.

Some suspected that a certain magic workshop was conducting forbidden research on soul harvesting, others believed it was an omen of an evil scourge’s birth, and there were even rumors that the Evil Mage Merck was hiding in this harbor city.

However, Philip, Orlando, and a few others no longer had the time to pay attention to these pervasive rumors, as a very strange situation had emerged at Yiyeta Academy.

When the night was still and quiet, a faint, almost inaudible scream could be heard throughout the academy, as if it could solidify the soul, terrifying all the Wizard Apprentices.

Wizard Apprentices like Pearce, who had been at the academy for over a decade, were prompted to recall the past, to the days before the Spiritual Energy school was abandoned. Back then, many students had heard this strange sound, and thus the Tower of Whistling got its name…

"Who can tell me, what exactly is inside that tower?" On the third morning, unable to sleep for two nights because of the screeching sounds, Tics finally couldn’t help but blurt out his question.

"That’s the Tower of Whistling. It was a research institute for the Spiritual Energy school years ago. Since the dissolution of the school, the tower has been abandoned…" Philip offered an explanation, but he kept his mouth shut about the details and was not willing to say more.

"The specifics, let’s wait for Master Helram to come back and explain to you," Orlando chimed in on the side.

Tics and Luo’er didn’t dare to press too hard, considering they were still within Yiyeta Harbor. A real conflict might make it difficult for them to even leave.

As for entering the Tower of Whistling to check the situation?

That would be tantamount to courting death. Tics speculated that the souls that were extracted were likely all gathered in this tower, which might be filled with the presence of the undead. To set foot inside recklessly could mean risking their lives.

In light of this, the two could only wait for support from the council while trying to coax Lynn, the potential ally.

If their suspicions were correct, the massacre in the southern district couldn’t be unrelated to Helram. Therefore, there was a possibility that Philip and his companions were involved. By comparison, the only one with a slightly lesser suspicion was Lynn, the newly arrived Professor of Arcane Science in Wizard Land.

Consequently, Lynn found himself bizarrely embroiled in a secret discussion that lasted all night with Tics and Luo’er, discussing various possible scenarios.

When Lynn came out, his expression was odd; unlike the other two, he believed that not many people were involved in this matter.

After all, Soul Devouring Arrays had a dreadful reputation, being taboo among taboos in Wizard Land. Once exposed, even Helram, with his status as a great wizard, would likely not escape being pursued and captured.

That’s why the opposing faction had created an organization of "Faceless" where members were unaware of each other’s identities, and North probably was the only one who knew who their behind-the-scenes boss was.

It was because of this that before the news of Helram’s death was exposed, Lynn did not think they would encounter any attacks by lingering factions. Taking advantage of the break from class due to the disturbance, he began to study the Virtual Domain that had been taken by the artificial intelligence!

After two days of getting acquainted, Lynn had transformed this domain, composed of Magic Power and Soul Power, from a state of chaos where nothing but darkness existed.

Instead, it twinkled like the universe, studded with countless stars. Here, one could see massive celestial bodies orbiting around stars under the influence of gravity, witness stars collapsing or expanding into red giants—a spectacular sight.

Lynn was completely immersed in this experience akin to that of a creator. Although most of the work had been completed by the artificial intelligence’s loading of corresponding data, this sense of participation was also a very special experience.

"Let’s try again to replicate a black hole..." Lynn mused, accessing the artificial intelligence’s database on black holes, but when he was about to replicate one, he received a low energy warning.

Lynn paused for a moment, then inquired, "071, how much energy do we have left?"

[Remaining energy is 8.4 percent. Do you wish to absorb stored Soul Power to replenish it?]

"Absorb it," Lynn hesitated for a moment but then nodded.

Looking at the situation in Yiyeta Harbor, bringing someone back to life in this world was not an easy feat. Those whose souls had been devoured and converted into Soul Bodies by the Soul Devouring Array had lost their past memories, retaining only the obsession from their most profound memories before death, with no possibility of recovery.

"Right, keep Bai Ge’s Spiritual Body for me, don’t convert her as well," Lynn suddenly remembered something and spoke up again.

Unlike the other Spiritual Bodies he had encountered, Bai Ge was very rare, able to maintain her sanity and communicate—a valuable subject for research, especially since he had made a promise before.

But to the artificial intelligence, Bai Ge was just a big gift package that had several times the soul strength of an ordinary Wizard Apprentice and could restore 12 percent of the energy reserves. So, whenever the AI was short on energy, the suggestion to sacrifice Bai Ge in exchange for energy would always pop up first.

Seeing the energy reserves of the artificial intelligence replenished to 100 percent in a very short time, Lynn did not have a particularly happy expression because there were just too many places where energy was needed.

After the death of Helram, the Virtual Domain had lost its energy supply, and Lynn had to rely on the AI to provide Magic Power; the consumption was also terrifying, costing 15 percent of the energy reserves per day.

"Forget it, let’s not bother with the black hole for now. For all celestial bodies outside the visible range, just do a simple simulation, and don’t waste too much computing power on this," Lynn thought for a moment and then quickly chanted in his mind.

As his words fell, the distant stars immediately dimmed a bit, and the daily Magic Power consumption was reduced to 5 percent. If there was no one in the Virtual Domain, the consumption would even drop to around 1 percent.

Lynn had put so much thought into transforming this Virtual Domain into a picture of the universe, and naturally, it was not just for fun; it had a significant purpose.

After witnessing the darkness of Yiyeta Harbor and the two-faced nature of Helram, Lynn understood that outsiders could not be relied upon. He needed to build his own faction, to prevent being at the mercy of others again.
