Chapter 148: Ove... Legend?
Ove's voice came through, and Lin Ke was startled, then delighted.
So quickly?!
Truly worthy of the "Truth Researcher"! Truly worthy of Ove! Truly worthy of Naseng!
In the past life, these discoveries were made gradually, with causes and consequences in place before being discovered by people.
But now, Ove's single "Eye of Truth" has uncovered it!
This made Lin Ke feel a bit itchy.
What is the essence of magic? What is the essence of planes? What is the essence of elements? What is the essence of the rules? What is the difference between this world and the material world of the past life?.....
If Lin Ke uses some of the special skills of the "Truth Researcher" to learn, research, and explore these questions, would it yield twice the result with half the effort?
But thinking about how this profession is exclusive to the Materialist School and its traits are confidential, even Ove can't break certain promises.
Lin Ke dismissed the thought.
There are many ways to explore; there's no need to achieve it by losing one's freedom.
After all, Ove didn't initially recommend Lin Ke to choose this profession, it's just a shame Ove couldn't say much.
But Lin Ke could feel that Ove agreed with the material viewpoint, agreed with the strength of "Truth Researcher."
However, he did not recognize the Materialist School, nor was he involved with it, instead researching thunderstorms within the planes on his own.
So Lin Ke didn't think of joining.
Still, he was somewhat fascinated by those skills nevertheless.
And at this moment, there was movement from Ove ahead.
"So... so it's like this... Little Lin Ke, thank you."
Ove spoke slowly, and the pieces of magnets and ironware before him floated and circled around him, moving simply.
And Ove closed his eyes.
Mysteriously, a force descended, so powerful that even Lin Ke felt it.
Fortunately, this was within his own plane, and the slaves had been called away by Lin Ke, so he wasn't worried about anyone seeing it.
Because ascending to legend brings magical phenomena.
The size and form of these phenomena are related to the rule comprehended by the ascender and the trait of the ascension.
For example, in Ove's case, it should be the "research" trait; what he accomplished in "research" determined the scale of the phenomenon.
Thorough research, in-depth research, and broad research all affect the scale of the phenomenon.
The laws he comprehended, such as insights from the science of power, might manifest related phenomena, whether pulleys, friction, and so on.
And if it was the science of lightning, it's possible to manifest various types of lightning, whether intensive or singular bolts, even static electricity and positive and negative charges, and so on.
At this moment, Lin Ke stood far back, watching Ove as he received the feedback, pondering silently.
Although electromagnetic induction is considered one of the groundbreaking discoveries of its time, it is also one of the greatest achievements in the field of electromagnetism.
In the past life, electromagnetic induction not only revealed the intrinsic connection between electricity and magnetism, but also laid the experimental foundation for the mutual transformation of electricity and magnetism.
That is electricity!
Electromagnetic induction paved the way for acquiring vast and affordable electricity in Lin Ke's past life, having significant practical significance.
Moreover, the discovery of electromagnetic induction also marked the advent of a major industrial and technological revolution in Lin Ke's past life.
Facts from the past life proved that electromagnetic induction has broad applications in electrical, electronic technology, electrification, automation, etc.
It can be said that electricity played an important role in advancing social productivity and scientific and technological development.
Even that role was still being developed before Lin Ke crossed over and might serve as a main energy source beyond fuel, for example, if there was a technological breakthrough, electric cars could gradually replace fuel cars.
Therefore, the discovery of electromagnetic induction can be said to have opened up a field.
Before this, there was only Franklin's kite experiment to prove the existence of electric energy.
And in Naseng, it was completely unnecessary because Ove often played with lightning, long having proven the existence of lightning.
However, it's difficult for Lin Ke to judge the extent of the feedback from the electromagnetic induction phenomenon.
After all, in terms of significance, the invention of plant fiber paper was actually very significant, but the feedback Lin Ke received was just a little.
From zero to level eight, this bit of feedback was utterly insufficient for Ove.
But judging from this timeframe, Ove very likely received a significant amount of feedback.
And just as Lin Ke thought of this, there was movement again on Ove's end.
A boundless and unparalleled pressure poured out from Ove's location.
Upon the initial breakthrough, no legend can smoothly control the power within, thus drawing the planes' origin and the power of the rules to form phenomena.
In an instant, the lightning elements in the entire small space were drained away.
And at this moment above Ove's head, contrary to Lin Ke's expectations, no phenomenon formed; instead, his body quickly flew towards the Space-Time Teleportation Array.
"The magic elements here aren't enough! I'm heading there to even....."
"Out" was just half-spoken, and before it was finished, Ove's voice slipped from his mind.
Lin Ke stood dazed.
Not enough elements???
Lin Ke and Ove both didn't really understand what was needed for a legendary breakthrough; they assumed it would be like an ordinary breakthrough.
Regarding the breakthrough to legend, no major force will elaborate on it.
It seems it has to do with magic elements.
Lin Ke snapped back in an instant and immediately ran towards the direction of the Space-Time Teleportation Array.
However, halfway through, he suddenly turned, propping up the air pressure shield.
No, why is there a fluctuation of magic here?!
...
The calm Azaenn Castle.
Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the castle gate, soaring into the sky.
Within a radius of several kilometers, lightning elements seemed summoned, rushing up into the sky, gathering around that figure.
Dark clouds gathered and spread, with thunder rumbling.
A massive pressure swept down from the sky, throwing the people of Azaenn Castle into panic.
"What is that? What is that?"
"Magic, there must be a sorcerer angry with us, attacking us with magic!"
"Save us! Ancestors of Azanen, save us!"
Servants were in chaos, panicking, while some kneeled in reflexive piety.
Fortunately, a voice echoed through the entire Azaenn Castle.
"No need to panic, it's Lord Ove making a breakthrough!"
Lamiel's voice was filled with excitement and anticipation.
Lord Ove... is making a breakthrough?
The servants quieted down, whispering amongst themselves, running out of the castle to see the thick clouds in the sky, but seeing nothing.
"Lord Ove, the young master's teacher..."
"What does breakthrough mean? Isn't Lord Ove the most powerful?"
"Nonsense! Young Master Lin Ke is the most powerful in Azaenn!"
Having calmed down, some clueless servants whispered among themselves, and Butler Billy did not gather them but let them chat quietly.
Billy knew best that his young master had a unique kind of pride since childhood, one not belonging to nobility, although no one noticed, and everyone felt the young master was amiable, gracious, and respectful to others.
But Billy knew, his young master's pride was unparalleled, so he knew better the frustration the young master endured at the Eldest Prince's place.
Watching Ove breaking through in the sky, Butler Billy's eyes became somewhat misty.
And at this time, Lin Ke's followers gathered below the castle, looking up at Ove.
"Isn't Lord Ove already star-ranked?" Lina's eyes reflected confusion and disbelief: "Could it be..."
"Haha, you fools, Lord Ove breaking through means becoming a legend!"
Lolita exclaimed excitedly.
As a result, slaves, servants, and followers alike seemed to awaken from a dream.
Lord Ove became a... legend?
