Chapter 766: Chapter 643: Bringing the Entire Geometric Civilization Under Our Control!

“How confident are you?” Harrov’s eyes lit up when he heard that Lynn had a way to forge a divine power, and he hurriedly asked.

“About seventy percent,” Lynn replied, not daring to speak too definitively. Although he had a concrete idea in mind, it still required a trial to know for sure.

People like Anthony, Vittorio, and Aurora were also very concerned about this. After over a decade of accumulation, they were not far from breaking through to become nine-ring legendary wizards.

If Harrov could successfully complete the ascension ceremony, then the next one might well be themselves!

Just as the council members were preparing to ask for more details, they were interrupted by an incoming electromagnetic transmission.

It was an urgent communication from Sanchez, who was responsible for monitoring the geometric aliens. The content was simple: Mony, the manager who had just finished communicating with their mother world, requested a meeting with Lynn, the ‘interstellar governor’ of the Magic Empire, claiming to have a very important matter to discuss.

“What are they planning this time?” Vittorio asked, arching an eyebrow.

Despite over ten years during which these geometric aliens had behaved quite compliantly, Vittorio hadn’t let down his guard.

Lynn smiled and answered, “The geometric civilization is intending to trade for a portion of magic power substances using element number seven. If they can’t get it, they’ll probably try to smuggle it.”

Mony would certainly not be foolish enough to be so straightforward with Rafael, but the entire planet was Lynn’s divine domain.

In other words, this negotiation was taking place within his own body, allowing Lynn to ‘see’ the communications between Mony and the geometric civilization directly.

As for the geometric civilization’s advanced information protection technology… that only protected against technology, not magic. Or to put it more specifically, in their understanding, magic power was just a form of energy. To them, the Magic Empire had the technology to utilize this special energy source, much like producing and using electricity, never considering that he was, in fact, the electricity itself!

“They sure have big plans…” Harrov chuckled disdainfully.

Anthony and others were somewhat worried. They had previously disagreed with Lynn’s decision to involve these geometric aliens in the planetary pasture plan because it would inevitably leak information about magic power.

Even if they needed the geometric civilization’s technology, they could have used other methods to forcefully demand or requisition some technological devices, without having to risk exposing the magic power.

However, since it had already happened, they didn’t think it was appropriate to blame Lynn for being too lax in vigilance and pondered how to refuse in such a way that would dissuade the other party from their impractical idea.

Rafael even proposed confining Mony and the other geometric aliens to prevent them from covertly coveting the magic power.

However, Lynn’s response was unexpected by everyone.

“Of course, we should give it to them! Since the geometric civilization desires a trade, why shouldn’t we agree? Element number seven is exactly what the council is lacking, isn’t it?”

Lynn said it quite nonchalantly. Despite the geometric civilization’s offer of five hundred tons of element number seven, which was not only for the construction of planetary pastures but also for the crafting of divine power, it simply wasn’t enough.

That’s why he had specifically proposed the trade; besides magic power, the council probably didn’t have anything else the other side wanted.

“Have you gone mad?” Harrov’s eyes bulged as he couldn’t help but reproachfully speak out.

Aurora, Anthony, Sanchez, and others were also shocked. They simply couldn’t understand Lynn’s thought process, willingly giving away the council’s trump card and reliance.

This was simply madness!

“Was it your intention to keep those geometric aliens and have them join the planetary pasture project for this very preparation?” Vittorio was relatively calm, realizing that trading magic power wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision by Lynn, but a long-term strategy.

But Vittorio couldn’t understand why Lynn would want to do such a thing, at least not immediately.

Lynn didn’t directly answer, but instead posed a question, “In your view, what is magic power?”

Vittorio paused, and Harrov and others furrowed their brows in thought for a bit before Anthony took the lead to explain, “Magic power is a special energy source from another universe that can be influenced by spiritual power, manipulating various fundamental particles in the universe, and even affecting space-time…”

Anthony concisely recounted all of the council’s research findings about the characteristics of magic power.

Answering Lynn’s question wasn’t easy. From the perspective of magic studies, explaining what something is requires summarizing all of its origins, components, production methods, and other fundamental features.

For example, water. You could vaguely describe it as the source of life, a colorless, tasteless, transparent liquid, or you could say it’s an inorganic substance composed of hydrogen and oxygen.

But these are the most superficial aspects. To delve deeper, you’d have to explain what basic particles constitute hydrogen and oxygen, why the chemical equation is H2O rather than some other ratio, and why these two elements form water…

For more profound matters, one must resort to cosmic laws. And magic power, according to their suppositions, might also be one of the fundamental particles at the most microscopic level, involving higher dimensions, and that’s why it can exist in various forms.

Lynn had no intention of making it difficult for the others, reminding them, “Don’t forget, the magic power on this planet is not ownerless, it’s also a part of me!”

The geometric civilization’s research and use of magic power equated to researching and utilizing his own strength. Lynn could even control the outcomes of their research to a certain extent.

“You mean to leverage the geometric civilization’s research and utilization of magic power to, in turn, influence and control them…” Harrov instantly understood Lynn’s intent but still felt it was unreliable.

This was undoubtedly a very dangerous plan, with the risk of losing control if not careful. If the geometric civilization’s technological level exceeded expectations and completely unraveled the secrets of magic power, that would spell disaster!

“I’ve already tried that.”

Lynn was quite aware of Harrov and the others’ concerns. In fact, they echoed his own, which is why he had previously allowed Mony and others to stay, tacitly permitting them to research magic power and repeatedly communicate with the mother world, aiming to confirm whether the geometric civilization had the capability.

Compared to the risks they had to take, the benefits were even greater. If handled well, they might be able to bring the entire geometric civilization under control in one fell swoop.
