D.I.O

Chapter 270

*** Brilliant Knight & Great Mage ***

Clunk. Whirl!

When the power was turned on, a hollow metal sphere was activated, and a metal brush, which outputted a specific voltage, revolved around it. Simultaneously, powerful magic energy was generated inside the metal sphere. It was an energy fusion machine. With the energy created in the metal sphere, the various materials placed nearby the metal sphere began to change.

Crack!

In response to the power that was released from the metal sphere, a peach tree that had been placed in front of the fusion machine started to grow rapidly.

The process itself was very mechanical, but it resulted in the creation of the purest form and force of nature.

Ether is the easiest to collect. The problem is that it deteriorates quickly and is difficult to manage after collection.

Yongno was currently researching the basic units of energy.

Merlin had collected from DIOs library all the information related to energy science and built a huge underground research facility to experiment with all the processes that he couldnt reproduce in his head.

Even though there was a mountain of other work to do, Merlin initiated the research because of an idea that popped into his head when he created his newest No Living World planetsJupiter and Saturn.

But I still dont get it. This would be a whole lot easier if I knew which direction to take.

Merlin had made Mercury, Venus, and Earth relatively easily. Of course, if the countless practitioners who had practiced the Golden Pill Immortal Technique were to hear him say this, theyd lose their minds and never find their sanity again. However, from Yongnos point of view at least, the creation of those three planets wasnt that complex.

Nevertheless, even Merlin had to use the amplification created by the repulsion between his magic power and internal energy to create Mars. This was because it was impossible to expand the number of his planets by using the existing Golden Pill Immortal Technique method. Since it was impossible to establish Jupiter solely with his own power, Merlin had utilized the Gold Dragons Chintamani Stone to do so.

The Chintamani Stone, which Merlin had first thought was a copy, was genuine, so Merlin was able to create Saturn on top of Jupiter. This was a result that exceeded his expectations.

However, I cant utilize outside sources of energy to create additional planets anymore. Unless I absorb dozens or hundreds of dragon hearts, itll be virtually impossible to create Uranus through energy concentration. No matter how strong Ive become, itll be impossible to concentrate and retain such an absurd level of energy too.

Creating Uranus seemed to be impossible for Merlin; it appeared that there was absolutely no way to reach another breakthrough. In fact, even the spiritual mechanism currently operating in [Merlin]s body was a revolutionary achievement. The novel mechanism was revolutionary enough to rewrite the traditional understanding of spiritual foundations and structures that were practiced and understood throughout the entire universe. Hence, what more was there to say about the improbability of creating Uranus?

Even so Yongno tried various ideas and experimented constantly, and in the process of trying and testing many different ideas

At one point, he suddenly remembered what Leighannthe great mage who resided in the Magic Tower of Babel, the Holy Land for all mages in DIOonce said.

One doesnt have to be a user of internal energy to use internal energy. Neither internal energy nor magic power is the smallest unit in the world.

The smallest units in the universe what are they?

Force, Essence, and Ether.

Leighanns explanation went against the common sense of those who believed that the smallest unit of energy in the universe was mana and that all other spiritual powers were different forms of mana expressed in different ways. However, at the time when Yongno heard Leighanns explanation, he felt that Leighanns explanation and understanding of energy were probably closer to the truth than that of the other transcendents.

In the end, its all a matter of proportion. Internal energy, mana, and chakra all use different ratios of energy. Even if the creation process is completely different, theyre all based on mana.

Yongno had already figured out the composition of his internal energy and magic power.

In the case of his internal energy, the ratio of Force, Essence, and Ether was 1:4.5:3, and in the case of his magic power, it was 1:3.5:5.

Though Yongno didnt go further and check the ratios of the other spiritual powers, he was fairly certain that life force would have a higher proportion of Force while aura power would have a higher proportion of Essence.

In other words, if one were able to properly handle and work with Force, Essence, and Ether, which are the basic energies that compose mana, then a mage would be able to use internal energy and a chakra user would be able to use life force. And if thats the case

Merlin mumbled as he started reviewing the simulations in his head.

Originally, these types of simulations required entering various variables into a supercomputer and processing a tremendous amount of information and calculations. Nevertheless, Merlin was able to do these simulations in his head before checking what experiments needed to be done in reality and quickly producing results.

However the results were completely unexpected.

The mana in the controlled space began to amplify explosively.

Eh? Whats going on? Wait, no way

Viagra was originally developed as a cardiovascular dilator, but it had the side effect of stimulating an important organ. That unexpected side effect caused Viagra to immediately become a superstar drug in the pharmaceutical world.

Similarly Yongno saw a completely different possibility while studying Force, Ether, and Essence to get a clue on how to further develop planets in his No Living World.

Wait, I obviously see the results, but I thought it wasnt something that could be done unless one was already in the transcendence realm

Though a variety of questions popped into Yongnos mind, he didnt waste any time pondering these questions.

I should start experimenting.

I dont know what youre planning to experiment a new voice intervened suddenly, but it would be nice if you could put off that experiment for a moment.

Yongno turned his head to check who the speaker was and saw a man with a pale complexion standing there and staring back at him.

The pale-faced man exuded a nonchalant attitude; it was as if he had been standing there from the beginning. Additionally, he didnt give off any aura. The man possessed a well-proportioned body and was over two meters tall. He gave off an air of an undertaker standing calmly in front of a hearse.

Ah you came. I thought youd come.

Even though it was a surprise appearance, Yongno sighed and dusted himself off as he got up. At that natural demeanor, the pale-faced manwho wore leather shoes, a black hat, and a capegrinned.

What a strange human being. There arent many beings who can look at me so calmly.

The mans appearance would make anyone think of a [Grim Reaper], but his skin was immaculate like he had put on makeup. This man was currently looking down at Yongno with an upright posture.

It was presently dusk, the time right before the sun would rise. At this time of day, the mans overwhelmingly ominous yet immaculate appearance would have made an ordinary persons heart flutter.

Hmm, thats unexpected. I thought the Shinigami I met before would appear.

Shinigami? Ah, you mean the Executors of Union Law. Based on which Executors are active these days, Id say youre referring to Ternov. But unfortunately, he doesnt really possess sensibility, so he isnt used in negotiations.

Seemingly without the thought of sitting down for a chat, the man remained standing as he reached inside his robe and took out a book. It didnt seem like an ordinary book as it emanated a considerable amount of aura. However, nothing in that book was readable.

So, youve come in regard to the dead people?

When Tanwho was the main operator of DIOtried to move DIO to another solar system after forcefully logging in the majority of earthlings onto DIO, the number of casualties and damage his abrupt action inflicted on Earth was immense. The casualties numbered not in the millions but in the billions, so there was no need to say more.

Even so Earth was currently much noisier and more clamorous about another incident than the mass casualties and vast damage caused by that forced log in.

Of course. In fact, were kind of at a loss on how to proceed with this situation ourselves. Its become even more difficult and murky because those damn dragons are playing dumb. Moreover, its extremely rare for beings like us, who belong to the Reaper Organization, to come face-to-face with living beings in the material world.

A large number of people died in the mass forced log-in incident. This was a fact.

Yet, at the same time those people didnt truly die.

Yeah, I can see how its a mess. Its been a bit hard for many people to accept that one could die in reality but still be alive in DIO.

People who had experienced their own deaths in real life realized that they still existed in DIO, and those who hadnt died also realized this fact.
