I Pioneered Scientific Magic

Chapter 195: The Fallen God and Victorio's Magic Core!

"Harof? Aurora? Victorio?" Ougust's expression turned increasingly grim, but swiftly reverted to his usual calm demeanor, mocking as he spoke.

"Of course, you didn't anticipate someone achieving what you so ardently dreamt ofbecoming the second... god!"

"Dreamt of?" Harof raised his tone, scoffing. "Why don't you take a look at yourself now?"

Victorio, at the side, shook his head with a sigh, pity gleaming in his eyes as he glanced at Ougust.

Aurora acted more directly, gesturing into the void. A watery mirror materialized, reflecting Ougust's current form.

Ougust gazed at his reflection, freezing in place. In the mirror, he saw a creaturepart human, part demon. Though still holding human features, his skin turned a dark bluish-green, covered in a faint layer of silver scales. Crimson eyes, and a massive horn sprouting from his forehead.

It resembled... the idol of that sinister god crafted by Kashimo.

Ougust hastily raised his hands, mirroring the scale-covered surface, turning to the crimson-robed warlock, whom Phillip and the others had dragged along. He spoke with a mixture of fear and anger.

"Tell me, Kashimo?! What's going on here?"

During the idol's crafting, Kashimo explicitly mentioned this form was intentionally distinct from his original, to avoid recognition...

"Hahaha..." Despite being firmly bound by magic and injected with a potion suppressing physical activity, Kashimo burst into laughter. "Merk, perhaps you've forgotten. I told you from the start, in this world, there can be only one god..."

"That's the Eternal Lord of the Stars, the Goddess of the Moon, Ai..."

"Shut up!" Before Kashimo could utter that name, Victorio's face displayed a hint of panic. He swiftly cast a silence spell, sealing Kashimo's mouth, preventing the use of god-summoning techniques that might bring that terrifying woman.

Aurora spoke slowly in response. "The Elemental Spirit was probably a fallen god, and by borrowing his name and power, your fate was sealed from the start."

To summon the remains of a fallen god on such a grand scale, she easily guessed the culprit.

Ougust's expression turned extremely grim. He realized something was amiss but didn't believe he would lose to a so-called fallen god.

As long as the plan continued smoothly and his power reached its peak, even if the so-called fallen god revived, with the power he currently possessed, he could suppress it, even consume it...

"It's your turn, Victorio. Fighting within Greiner City will only lead to unnecessary losses..." Harof, seeing Ougust disregarding his warnings, sighed involuntarily.

"This is your mistake, yet in the end, I have to clean up..." Victorio coldly snorted, clearly reluctant.

Harof and the others' arrogant attitude thoroughly infuriated Ougust.

"Feel the wrath of the gods!" Ougust shouted malevolently, his eyes turning crimson. He stopped restraining his power, more and more magical energy continuously drawn from the Magic Core, his body rapidly expanding...

"Victorio, this isn't the time for jokes. If that fallen god truly revives, it'll be troublesome!" Harof urged again.

"Elemental Disarray..." It was only then that Victorio slowly raised a hand, speaking indifferently.

Ougust's body jerked suddenly. He sensed the Magic Core integrated within him rapidly vibrating, its stored elements seemingly slipping out of his control...

The Magic Core was undoubtedly the most crucial treasure in all of Greiner City, housed in the central control room of the Sun Crown Tower, accessible only to the Speaker.

All the protections were against outsiders because every Speaker knew it was manipulablea full name: Victorio's Magic Core!

Ougust, devoid of all of Faiz's memories, had undoubtedly fallen into a massive trap. His entire body and the entire realm of the apocalypse relied on the colossal magic of the Magic Core.

So, when control was wrested from him, the entire apocalypse realm collapsed and disintegrated into specks of dust, dissipating into the void.

Ougust watched helplessly as the apocalypse realm he painstakingly built turned to nothingness. He plunged into madness, a violent aura bursting from his body, causing him to grow larger, his head gradually shifting to his back, two pitch-black horns emerging.

Victorio, composed, formed hand seals. Complex runes manifested in the void, creating an intricate alchemical array.

As a legendary alchemist, he didn't need to set up alchemical arrays in advance like others because magical energy itself was one of the finest materials!

"Is this the legendary alchemical array?" Raphael, equally skilled in alchemy, murmured, intensely studying every detail of the array as if to engrave it in his mind.

Lynn, also intrigued by alchemy, had too many subjects to focus on, leaving him with limited energy.

With Victorio completing his seals, the Magic Core had been detached from Ougust's body.

"It's mine... It's mine!" As immense magic was siphoned away, Ougust's appearance almost melded with that of the fallen god, his expression grotesque. He reached out, seemingly attempting to seize the Magic Core suspended in mid-air.

"If you want it that badly, then stay in there!" Victorio said icily. Chains shimmering with silvery light shot from all directions towards Ougust, one after another binding him, imprisoning him within the azure Magic Core.

Crimson and azure lights intertwined within the transparent crystal. Once everything was done, Victorio's complexion paled slightly. It seemed sealing Ougust wasn't as easy as it appeared.

Seeing the situation resolved, Harof sighed in relief, then turned to Lynn and the others, speaking solemnly.

"I know you have many doubts, but now's not the time for explanations. Organize a team and quell the chaos in Greiner City first."
