Chapter 359: Chapter 50: Created a New Level 0 Witchcraft, Level 5 Star Badge Evaluation (Part 2)

This was a specially bound thesis, meticulously wrapped in an exquisite, flexible book frame.

Generally, only a thesis of the Wizard Level—and one of truly great significance—would be granted this extra degree of dignity by the Witch Spirit.

Otherwise, even if the author paid out of pocket for a lavish cover, the Witch Spirit would unceremoniously discard it to conserve a bit of Magic Power.

This was the core code buried deep within the Witch Spirit’s foundational logic.

After all, if everyone did this, the accumulated Magic Power consumption would be no small sum.

Yi Lin reached out, opened the flexible book cover, and her eyes swept over the thesis’s title.

Her pupils dilated in an instant, and the eerie blue light within her mechanical eye erupted like a volcano.

’The Thunder Blade Technique?’

’That kid is just a First Level Apprentice, and he’s already optimizing a Third Level Apprentice’s Witchcraft? Isn’t he getting way ahead of himself!’

’A new formula?’

’What on earth has that kid been up to, to have even come up with a new formula? This is truly astonishing!’

She knew, of course, that Mo Ning spent most of his time in the Cabin in the Woods, built by the former dean, Lord Martin, himself.

The cabin possessed a powerful and intimidating Artificial Soul. It was highly likely that the Artificial Soul had already reviewed the thesis while the kid was writing it.

In that case, the new formula must be an undeniable fact.

In that instant, an overwhelming wave of curiosity completely consumed Yi Lin’s mind.

For once, she didn’t review the thesis as she usually did by separating the thick stack of paper page by page. Instead, she flipped through them rapidly with both hands, her mechanical eye flickering at an astonishing rate as it branded each page into the depths of her vision.

She had only been reading for five minutes.

Yi Lin blurted out, "This method is so ingenious!"

She knew all too well where the difficulty of the Thunder Blade Technique lay.

The core threshold of this Witchcraft was compressing the frenzied Thunder Power with extreme intensity, thereby forcibly creating a blade sharp enough to slice through the void.

It was precisely because the energy density was pushed to such an extreme that it was granted its nigh-terrifying power.

Expressed in the Divination Language, this was known as multidimensional Magic Power folding.

In the Low-Ring Divination Domain, multidimensional Magic Power folding was an indisputably difficult problem.

Never mind Apprentices; even many Official Wizards steered clear of it.

The logic was simple: the energy density was too high. The slightest mistake, and the entire structure would instantly explode.

A minor incident would injure the caster, while a major one could impact their Spiritual World, possibly even leaving irreversible, permanent trauma to their spirit.

So, for safety’s sake, the vast majority chose to take a detour.

But that kid, Mo Ning, had charged headfirst into it.

In his thesis, he proposed an unprecedented "Magic Power Crystal Lattice" structure.

The idea was to construct countless, precise Magic Power lattices at a microscopic level, dividing the volatile energy into innumerable tiny units, each "locked" within a single lattice.

It was, indeed, a highly creative concept.

But behind this creativity lay a mind-numbingly high degree of difficulty. How could the lattices be established? How could the thunder energy be divided? And by what means could the energy be securely locked away?

And the most fatal problem was: how to establish a large—no, a massive—number of lattices in an extremely short time.

The key point: an extremely short time.

After all, an enemy wouldn’t just stand there foolishly, watching a Wizard leisurely construct a lattice structure.

The Casting Time for most powerful Level Zero Witchcraft was controlled at around 0.1 seconds.

Even if the improved Thunder Blade Technique was slightly slower, it absolutely could not exceed 0.15 seconds, or it would lose all practical combat value.

Yi Lin felt this problem was too difficult; even she herself would be unable to solve it.

However, this very thesis presented an astoundingly brilliant solution: designing a specific Magic Power structure that allowed the lattices to grow on their own.

A testimonial-like passage in the paper left a deep impression on the Rose Judge:

"In the thesis on the Black Moss on the surface of Steel Bamboo, the growth mechanism of the moss sparked this key insight, ultimately leading me to this brand-new method.

"I have always firmly believed that nature contains countless beautiful pearls of truth, and I was merely fortunate enough to have discovered one of them.

"Rather than taking enormous risks to forcibly control it, it is better to let it grow freely.

"As long as it is endowed with sufficient Spirituality, the lattice will spontaneously find the most suitable path for proliferation, just like that Black Moss that can never be completely polished away.

"And a spontaneously grown lattice naturally possesses the most Stable structure, fundamentally avoiding the immense risk of a high-energy explosion."

"A true genius."

Yi Lin murmured softly.

The Wizard spent a full ten minutes reading over the pages detailing the Divination derivation for the spontaneous growth of the lattice again and again.

And the final result of the derivation was, naturally, that new formula.

The thesis named it the Mo Ning Lattice Proliferation Formula.

Simple, yet very descriptive.

Yi Lin nodded almost imperceptibly and commented in a low voice, "From a Divination perspective, there’s nothing wrong with this formula."

At that moment, envy surged within the Rose Judge’s heart.

To create a brand-new formula and use it to crack a difficult problem that had stumped countless predecessors—this was the deepest dream buried in the heart of every Official Wizard.

Yi Lin, naturally, was no exception.
