I Got 999 Level With One Cut

However, the sun was almost invisible in most of the underground Fort Lerge. The concept of time seemed to be blurred in this place.    

Riko Hasegawa sat alone in front of the table, facing the gray cement wall in front of her. There were two pieces of empty paper on the table. She looked like she was in a daze.    

Meiko gently pushed the door open. Her gaze moved back and forth between the pendulum in the corner and the silver-haired young girl several times. Finally, she sighed. She placed a cup of tea on the table beside the silver-haired girl and reached out to rub Riko's head.    

"Sleep early."    

Riko nodded as a response.    

She stared at the two pieces of white paper in front of her without moving. No one knew what she was thinking.    

Loli Merlin passed by the door and looked inside. She saw Riko standing there without moving and silently sighed in her heart.    

"It turns out that Rikku will also be troubled."    

Riko Hasegawa was indeed troubled.    

The Metal element was indeed a domain that mages rarely touched upon, because most mages did not know what it could do. The metal made from elemental magic needed magic to be maintained, so it was obviously impossible to use it to make magic tools. Other than that, most of the mages really could not think of the use of gold.    

Riko also did not have much understanding of Metal element.    

And this happened to be where the difficulty of creating new magic lied.    

Just like what the hair-raising Titled Devil Instructor Otto, Jaen, said, the synthesis of the Heavy Iron was very complicated. Up until now, whether it was Otto, Jaen or Riko Hasegawa, they are all carefully bonded together by the metal elements one by one. No one knew how long it would take to synthesize 50 kilograms of Heavy Iron using this method.    

According to normal thinking, the final completed incantation could be dozens of meters long.    

And this was clearly unacceptable to Riko Hasegawa.    

Riko lightly sighed and hugged her legs as she sat on the chair. She turned her head to look at the clock. This was a simple magic charging clock that relied on the shaking of the clock to measure the time. Thousands of years ago, people had already discovered that a moving object would eventually stop due to the loss of kinetic energy. But before it completely stopped, the time required to perform a swing was always the same. The design of this thing was very exquisite. When the pendulum swayed for a long time and finally lost its kinetic energy due to the resistance of the air, the mages could inject a small amount of magic into it to regain its energy.    

The clock showed that it was already ten o'clock at night.    

Riko looked at the empty white paper in front of her and felt a little dazed as if she had returned to Earth.    

In the empty house, she sat in front of the desk, under the light of the table lamp. She faced the math questions that she did not understand at all. Those questions were very simple for her now, but for the past, she was unable to overcome them.    

Riko rubbed her eyes.    

But at this moment, a thought flashed through Riko's mind like lightning.    

What if she designed a new spell?    

The moment this idea popped up, it was like a wildfire burning the grassland.    

Right now, there was only one common form of spell incantations - from left to right, chanting one syllable at a time.    

The Formation Array Theory and the runes were closely related and had different systems. Runes were not incantations, and they could not use elements, but it did not mean that they did not have magic.    

Simple operations such as repetitive, reverse, and ellipsis were useful for runes and formation array. Then, it was possible to slightly modify it and use it on incantations, right?    

Riko's hand hovered in the air for a full three seconds.    

Then, she grabbed the pen.    

Riko felt that she had entered a very strange state.    

It was three o'clock in the morning. In the entire Fort Lerge, except for the guards who were on night duty, everyone had fallen asleep. Riko, however, was still sitting in the same position and writing something.    

The paper in front of her was already covered with incomprehensible formulas and runes.    

She thought of a new idea. First of all, she needed to calculate and verify it.    

The result was quickly presented in front of her.    

The few characters that she had selected and modified were very perfect.    

They got along very well with the twenty-six characters in the original incantation system. She thought that the twenty-nine characters should be the original version of the universal incantation system.    

The three letters added in represented the reversal effect, overlapping content, and cancelling the effects of the incantation.    

She had nothing to hesitate about.    

The truth revealed its secrets to this young silver-haired girl.    

Riko Hasegawa held the piece of paper and ran out of Fort Lerge under the deep night sky. She climbed onto the cold and heavy fortress turret.    

"I'm going to start."    

She sat down and opened the last piece of paper.    

She was about to start the final step of creating a spell.    

"Thank you all for contributing to the magician."    

Riko read softly, picked up the pen, and wrote the first letter on the paper.    

Riko said, "Thank you, Mage God, Isaac."    

Without a pause, the small words arranged in deep blue ink began to fill up the blank bit by bit.    

"Thank you, the creator of the Formation Array Theory, Euclid and Tyler."    

After an unknown period of time, a faint light appeared in the dark sky.    

"Thank you, Otto, Jaen, Lizzy Maitner. Even if this magic was created, it was to fight against your country."    

The silver-haired girl's pupils reflected a mysterious golden light.    

"Thank you, Rutherford."    

"Vilna Heissenberg."    

"Aquamarine Dirac," Aquamarine Dirac said.    

"Dorothy."    

"Of course, there is also Meiko."    

Riko gently wrote down the last letter.    

She raised her head and looked straight at the rising sun. The golden sunlight merged with the flickering color in the girl's eyes.
