I Pioneered Scientific Magic-Chapter 439: The Greatest Discovery in Magical History - The Magic Conversion Equation!
"Lord Gustav, perhaps it would be better if I went instead!" a divine punishment knight suggested, unable to bear the thought of such a young Ivina undertaking such a dangerous mission.
He didn't know exactly what those wizards had done to the kingdom, but he could imagine that it was beyond dire.
Among the ranks of the divine punishment knights, there were also those like him who lacked the innate talent for divine arts, thus not undergoing the necessary training, and he was one of them!
"This isn't mandatory. You can refuse, and there won't be any punishment. I'll consult with His Holiness and send someone else if necessary," Gustav assured, not wanting to pressure Ivina.
Sending unwilling pawns into enemy territory would only spell disaster!
"No, there's no need to trouble anyone else. Let me handle it!" Ivina declared resolutely.
If the apocalypse couldn't be stopped, everyone would plunge into hell. In such dire circumstances, no one could escape!
Gustav was impressed by the girl's determination and reassured her. "You don't have to worry too much. I doubt those wizards will be too harsh on an apprentice."
With that, Gustav instructed his adjutant to hand Ivina a dossier.
"This contains your new identity and several wizards you need to pay special attention to. It's best to prepare yourself in the coming days..."
Ivina nodded solemnly, taking the dossier and flipping through it. It detailed the unique council system of the wizards, their hierarchy, composition, and the identities of several councilors.
She noted them down one by one. However, upon reaching the last page and seeing the information there, she couldn't help but freeze.
There were portraits drawn by the empire's finest artists on the page, depicting a male wizard of about twenty years old, with brown hair, looking gentle and devoid of the madness and danger often associated with wizards, yet the bounty on him was staggering!
A reward of a full billion imperial coins!
And those so-called 'legendary' wizards, the leaders of the council, were only worth tens of millions.
What intrigued Ivina more was Lynn's background, the harbinger of the apocalypse, the one who brought down the church's punitive army, leading to the fall of the kingdom and the destruction of half of a coastal town.
"The Apocalypse Messenger... Lynn," Ivina murmured softly, his story vaguely reminding her of her own brother, Lott.
Soon, Ivina shook her head inwardly.
How could that be?
At most, they just shared some similarities in age and hair color.
This wizard named Lynn was so powerful, killing the church's saint with ease and annihilating tens of thousands of the church's punitive army in an instant.
Perhaps her brother was just one of his minions or apprentices.
"He is your most important target for this mission, hailed by those wizards as the Star of Magic!" Gustav said solemnly. "If we're not mistaken, he should also be the mastermind behind the destruction of your hometown, the coastal town!"
When Ivina joined the divine punishment army, he had already investigated the identity of the other party, naturally aware that her brother Lott had died in that riot, causing Baron Pedrol immense mental trauma, as rumors had it.
It could be said that an originally noble family had been shattered...
"I will do my best to complete the mission, Lord Gustav!" Ivina tucked away the dossier, her eyes revealing a complex expression.
"Very good. If successful, you will be the greatest hero to save millions in the empire!" the leader of the divine punishment army encouraged.
"It's a pity His Holiness didn't choose you to be the new saint!" Gustav lamented somewhat regretfully. "They underestimated the potential of your body..."
He had never seen someone with such excellent combat talent.
While wizards might wield powerful and evil sorcery, their expertise in close combat was usually limited. Once they fell into melee due to carelessness, even great wizards could end up losing their heads.
Although from the information collected, the so-called Star of Magic was not as simple as an ordinary great wizard, Ivina had another weapon, her beauty!
If used well, it would be deadlier than any poison! freewebnoveℓ.com
Taking all this into account, he recommended Ivina to His Holiness for this mission...

At the border of the empire, within the City of Fire Oil, Lynn was unaware that the church had secretly devised a plan against him and was fully immersed in his research on divine arts and magic.
"Incredible, truly incredible!"
Lynn exclaimed, using a magnification spell that amplified two hundred times to meticulously examine the forearm of Judge Joshua, marveling at it.
After several days of research, he had discovered many interesting things.
Just as he had speculated before, the church must have mastered some method of converting substances using divine energy as a medium - foreseeably the most important path to becoming a legend!
If he were to describe it in one sentence, it would be: the flesh is weak, but the energy ascends!
In addition to this, he also found that divine energy and magic were essentially the same thing, but the difference lay in the fact that wizards' magic had subtle differences.
Powerful wizards often could identify a person's identity through their magic!
Hurlram had easily seen through his flawless shape-shifting magic.
On the other hand, the mastery of divine energy by priests, bishops, and even archbishops was highly similar, making it impossible to distinguish between them.
Lynn suspected that divine energy was imprinted with a personal mark by [Aila], or perhaps it contained a special magical power imbued with her will!
As Lynn pondered whether he could achieve the same using the magic network, he recorded all his thoughts on a piece of parchment.
The title prominently displayed: "Analysis and Research Report on Divine Energy!"
Lynn was planning to publish it in the "Magic Weekly" this week to help dispel wizards' fear and panic about gods.
Next to it lay a recently completed "Periodic Table of Elements" and a large stack of stacked manuscripts!
The manuscripts were filled with messy formulas, prominent scratches, and rough lines. If there were a wizard proficient in arithmetic here, they would surely see that it was an unfinished set of equations.
Lynn called it the Magic Conversion Equation!
If he could perfect it, it would undoubtedly be the greatest discovery in magical history...
Most importantly, it was a magical theory truly of his own creation!
It was the foundation for unraveling the essence of magic and ascending to legendary status!
