I Created Scientific Magic-Chapter 133 - 120: Human Hell (Please Subscribe)
The once spacious and bustling banquet hall had turned into a living hell in the blink of an eye!
The wizards who attempted to rebel quickly realized something was amiss, many, like Hank, were severely backlashed by their own magic at the moment they cast their spells—some clutched their heads, wailing in agony, others were sent flying by their very own magic.
With their souls disturbed, even casting the most basic spells had become an extravagant hope.
Desperate cries and screams were unceasing, yet North was indulging in the scene with ecstasy, finding the chaos before him the perfect boost for his ascension.
In the midst of the chaotic crowd, Lynn was rapidly checking his own physical condition—not that he was affected by the Array, but he couldn’t understand why all the wizards present appeared to be mentally shocked.
He seemed to have encountered no attacks whatsoever...
Was it because he had once merged and absorbed the power of the "Eye of Death"?
Lynn immediately thought of this—the core component of this Array must be the blood of the "Eye of Death," and his body contained a power of the same origin.
Apart from Lynn, the only one who still had some resistance left was Lea, well-versed in Shaping Science. Realizing something was wrong, he began to shape-shift, and shortly after, a towering owl beast over two meters tall appeared in the midst of the chaotic banquet hall.
Lea’s eyes were blood-red, and he let out a sharp, enraged roar, clearly affected by the Array. First, he sent a wizard blocking his path flying with a slap, then charged straight toward North.
"Your resistance is meaningless!" North taunted, extending his hands and conjuring up dozens of thick ice blades that soared through the air, ready to pin the onrushing owl beast to the wall behind.
However, the ice blades were shattered midflight by "Magic Missiles" that came from nowhere, and the owl beast, having covered a distance of over ten meters, slapped North across his body.
A solid "Mage Shield" lit up around North but was shattered by the tremendous force of the owl beast.
With a "Boom!", North was slammed against the wall of the banquet hall; his right arm twisted grotesquely, even exposing the ghastly white of his bones.
But he quickly struggled to his feet, and with a constant flow of energy replenishing him, his injuries rapidly regenerated. He hastily erected a "Magic Barrier" around himself for full protection to avoid being harmed by these people’s "fragile" resistance.
The owl beast let out another sharp roar, but this time, it was blasted away by a "Spell Shockwave" before it could advance.
At the same time, Lynn’s magic had also been completed; a large amount of corrosive aqua regia had penetrated the floor tiles, corroding the Alchemy Array at the center of the banquet hall into a pockmarked state.
"Radak, I didn’t expect you to hold out until now!" North also noticed Lynn’s presence, glanced at the half-corroded Alchemy Array, his face contorted for a moment, then said viciously, "It’s useless; this is just a secondary formation."
"It should be about time now!" North shouted fervently. "Now, let everyone merge with me!"

As North spoke, through the eyes of a raven in the sky, Lynn clearly saw that the mithril pillars erected within the manor also lit up brightly.
Immediately after, bluish wisps of light floated out from everyone’s bodies. These flickering lights varied in intensity and size—the higher the level of the wizard, the more intense the light. A minor portion surged into North’s body, while the majority fused into the Array that enveloped the entire manor.
Even Lea, transformed into an owl beast, was unable to resist and soon painfully collapsed to the ground.
[Energy concentration detected to be rising rapidly…]
[Large amounts of Soul Power detected. Would you like to absorb and convert it into energy reserves?]
Within Lynn’s mind, two notifications from the smart brain rang out.
"Yes!" Lynn glanced at the blue wisps scattered throughout the banquet hall and silently commanded in his heart.
If he did not absorb these Soul Powers, they would instead reinforce North’s strength.
[Spiritual Body captured, estimated to be converted into three percent energy reserves, current energy reserve remaining at thirty-seven point five percent…]
[Spiritual Body captured, estimated to be converted into five percent energy reserves…]
A succession of more than ten notifications followed, and Lynn had never expected that the smart brain’s energy reserves could be amplified so rapidly; in just a few seconds, it actually reached one hundred percent!
[Excess energy will automatically be allocated to improving the decryption progress of the virtual space…]
On the other side, North was also feeling the power within him climb steadily. It was the first time in nine years that he experienced the sensation of his magic power growing. However, North soon noticed something was amiss: although his magic was increasing rapidly, it was still just short of breaking through the grand wizard threshold…
"This can’t be happening, this simply can’t be right. Where did it go wrong?" North yelled madly.
In the banquet hall, there were over a hundred Wizard Apprentices, seven third-circle Wizards, and more than ten full-fledged Wizards. Such immense soul power should have been enough to elevate him to a higher realm!
Yet reality was different from what he had anticipated. Although he had become stronger than before, he had still not broken through the limit of a third-circle Wizard.
"It was you, it must have been you, Dalak!" North glared fiercely at Lynn, the only one standing in the banquet hall. Before, he had thought Lynn was just temporarily resisting the effects of the Soul Devouring Array, but now it seemed there might be more to it.
"You can’t blame this on me... maybe you just accidentally drew the wrong Formation..." Lynn made his cool remark while simultaneously controlling the gnawing rodents and the grey crows battling the evil hound.
His words seemed to have no effect, for the Soul Power drifting in the air was continuously flowing into his body…
North was clearly aware of this too, feeling as if his heart was bunched up, about to explode.
"You bastard, all this power should be mine..."
He had prepared for this moment for three full years, made great sacrifices, and would not allow for any accidents!
"If I kill you, everything will return to me!" Perhaps the blow was too great; North’s mental state seemed off, his eyes turned completely red. Since some of the souls had been absorbed by Lynn, he just needed to kill him, and that portion of the power would ultimately return to his body.
