Looking at all the praise flooding in on the Magic Net, the Wandering Wild Mage's expression was really complicated. For a second there, he felt like he was back a few months ago. Back then his condition wasn't fixed yet, his life force was draining away like crazy every day, the self-charging magic array wasn't as refined as now and had huge risks, and worse, he was out there all alone with no way to actually build a self-charging magic array... Like his life could just end at any moment.

Back then he'd also put info about his self-charging magic array research in Magic Space, but all he got was endless mockery. Almost nobody believed it was real.

But now, just a few months later, he'd become this master everyone worshipped. No matter how "unbelievable" the tech he posted was, everyone would praise it first. Even people who totally didn't get it would chime in with a few words.

He even suspected that if he went on Magic Space right now and said, "The tribes in the southern forests have hidden 'mummies' that'll upgrade you and boost your vitality if you eat them," tons of people would probably believe it was true, eat up all the "mummies," and privately tell their friends, "The Wandering Wild Mage said..."

In the Gray Fort Empire, in the capital, in the Magic Net laboratory, there was total silence right now.

The tech the Wandering Wild Mage released wasn't just different from what they'd developed themselves—you couldn't even say it was different. There was literally no connection at all.

It was completely opposite directions.

"This... why is the technical approach the Wandering Wild Mage released so different from what we developed ourselves? Did we really go down the wrong path?"

"How about we go ask Andrew? Master Andrew doesn't like Magic Conductors and doesn't want to get involved, but with his abilities, and considering he's hosted countless sacrifices to the Goddess of Magic, he probably knows something about the relationship between the Goddess of Magic and the God of Technology. Maybe we could consult with him?"

"Why bother Master Andrew? Andrew's preparing a new sacrifice right now. Can't we just make a prototype following the Wandering Wild Mage's plan ourselves? If it actually works, then obviously we were the problem. If it fails, then the Wandering Wild Mage is just messing with everyone!"

"Even if it works, I don't think our attempts were wrong. Just means the technical approach is different." Another high-level magician spoke up with his own thoughts.

Elf Forest.

Near the Elf Capital.

Fallen Ones headquarters.

Their approach was totally different from the Gray Fort Empire's.

They basically believed everything the Wandering Wild Mage posted without any hesitation.

"Archbishop Rachena! The Magic Power Network construction is complete!"

"The self-charging magic array construction is complete! Ready to activate anytime!"

The bishops' reports one after another snapped Rachena out of her daze.

Not long ago, she'd been worrying about how to resist the God of War's corruption of her and the Pope. Because of that, they'd specifically sped up building the Great World of Depravity, never expecting it would almost lead to the total wipeout of the Fallen Ones' leadership. In that critical moment, the Great World of Depravity actually gave birth to the Master of Depravity, and even more unexpectedly, the Master of Depravity became a subordinate god of the God of Technology! They... had actually become a sect under the God of Technology.

Even if she didn't want to admit it, now all the Fallen Ones' leadership had clearly started believing in both the God of Technology and the Master of Depravity. Most of them only had one thought right now—to be like the Master of Depravity and embrace the God of Technology!

Some radical types even thought the true Great World of Depravity existed not just in their hearts but also in the Magic Net. It was just that the magic power drifting in the air wasn't enough to connect them with the real Great World of Depravity. So the instant the Magic Power Network and self-charging tech appeared online, they made their choice—build a complete setup at headquarters to finish all the basics.

As for how to enter the true Great World of Depravity, their idea was to create a consciousness transmission and reception Magic Conductor...

If Ren knew about this transformation of the Fallen Ones, he'd definitely sigh and say they were a bunch of science fanatics! Of course, if they actually succeeded, Ren wouldn't mind specially creating a "network space" for them. Just copying the virtual divine realm to build a virtual city would be totally no sweat for him anyway.

"Archbishop!"

Rachena completely pulled her thoughts back together. "Let's go, let's check it out!"

Before even entering the designated area, Rachena could already feel countless streams of magic power converging toward the central area. This situation was really similar to when a magic power anomaly zone first formed.

Maybe it was because the Fallen Ones headquarters itself was an underground magic power anomaly zone. After fusing with the self-charging magic array, the dense magic power almost seemed like it was about to condense into mist, filling the entire "room."

Rachena's breathing got heavier. If an ordinary magician trained in an area like this, wouldn't that... The Fallen Ones headquarters just added another holy site! She even felt that with this, they could totally make some magicians "fall" here.

"Archbishop!"

"Is such dense magic power really okay? Should we build a self-charging magic array and Magic Power Network in a normal area instead?" After thinking for a moment, Rachena spoke slowly.

No matter how you looked at it, building a self-charging magic array in a magic power anomaly zone was pretty risky. What if the array couldn't handle it, or the magic power was too thick and actually wasn't suitable for use...

"Archbishop, don't worry, we've already tested it. There won't be any problems. The materials we used are slightly different from the tutorial, so they can handle more. Plus, the self-charging magic array's adjustment mechanism is really strong. Even if the magic power were several times greater, the core would still run normally."

One bishop smiled as he spoke, his eyes full of obsession.

Before this, he'd never imagined such an amazing thing could exist in the world.

"Actually we don't need to worry about problems with the self-charging magic array at all. Even though we built ours in a magic power anomaly zone, making the magic power super dense, the scale is still pretty small. Compared to that, the legendary self-charging magic array in Roster territory that's already reached 300 acres—it must be moving way more magic power than us."

The bishops chimed in one after another with their own views, lots of pride in their voices. No matter what, they were the first to build self-charging magic arrays and Magic Power Networks in this kind of environment, and they'd actually succeeded!

The results were amazing!

You could even say they'd independently created a "magic holy site"!

God of Technology above, you've shown us a whole new world! Many people were sighing like that in their hearts.

After a round of verification, Rachena nodded slightly. "I'll communicate our situation with the Wandering Wild Mage later... Also, I think we should have all the Fallen Ones who own territories start building self-charging magic arrays and Magic Power Networks in their territories too, to lay the groundwork for our next plan!"

"I agree!"

"Agreed!"

"We definitely should!"

The Fallen Ones leadership all chimed in agreement.

This fit with what they needed to do next.

Compared to other dark churches, or even normal churches, the Fallen Ones had one seriously overpowered advantage—the World of Depravity. Everyone had a World of Depravity in their heart. For nobles living super extravagantly, the World of Depravity was like this magical zone that let them feel like they were truly "alive." Because of that, they had tons of lords in their church.

Especially small and medium lords, or disappointed lords.

When the Fallen Ones went full throttle spreading self-charging magic arrays and Magic Power Networks, they weren't much worse than the Wandering Wild Mage publicly releasing the technical approach!

Three days after the Wandering Wild Mage posted the related technical plans, influenced by all sides, territories that started building Magic Power Networks and self-charging magic arrays had already exceeded 5,000, and that number was still climbing.

The massive demand directly caused prices for all kinds of materials to skyrocket. Some of the rarer magic materials even tripled in price.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Viscount Roster made another killing!

He'd started stockpiling these materials way back. Roster territory couldn't use that much—he stockpiled specifically for this moment.

He wasn't worried about his territory needing more later either. In a month at most, or as little as two or three weeks, prices for these materials would definitely start falling back down, eventually dropping to their original prices or even lower.

Because the huge market would push lots of territories with these resources to dig fast, and plus, the Magic Conductor mining machines Roster territory was selling would help them quickly boost output!
