Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes
Chapter 144 Hive Will

Chapter 144: Chapter 144 Hive Will

"As for these on my body——"

Orbins shook the shiny metal ornaments scattered on his academy uniform.

"Shua——"

Under Anvis’s slightly surprised gaze, all the metal ornaments suddenly expanded and interlocked on Orbins’s body, forming a set of fully enclosed Mechanical Armor with an extremely magical style.

The circuits of Mysterious Inscriptions flowed with a ghostly glow, a layered solid metal structure, and an external Magic Power source embedded deep in the chest, shining with a light aqua radiance.

A helmet equipped with various Observation Magic and devices wrapped around Orbins’s face, protecting the entire head while conveniently exposing the antennas on top of his head.

"This is the inspiration I got from the emerging field of Magic-guided Mechanical studies.

I attended a few advanced Mechanical courses before, and based on the concept of Magic-guided Mechanicals, I designed this set of independent modular Mechanical Armor."

Orbins’s voice sounded slightly distorted through the Sound Amplifying Array of the Mechanical Helmet.

Meanwhile, he took a few steps to briefly show the armor details to Anvis.

"I have to say, this thing is indeed pretty good, the protection Level is much higher than typical experimental protective suits.

When handling some materials, I can personally participate, instead of being separated by a layer of experimental devices.

Like that helmet, the design schematics have also been handed over to your contact——"

Observing the Mechanical Armor on Orbin’s body, which was emitting Magic Fluctuations close to those of a Fourth Rank, Anvis was slightly taken aback.

This equipment suddenly reminded him of something Orbins later developed.

At the peak period of Magic-guided Mechanical development, the war-type control Alchemy Spirit with the highest appearance rate: [Hive Will].

Few people knew that the prototype of [Hive Will] was also developed by Orbins—

Initially, due to the Mechanical Army’s powerlessness against Professionals above the Seventh Rank.

The Magic Council requested Orbins’s help to research and find a way to break through this barrier.

At that time, Orbins, who was already a Sixth Rank Professional, accepted the task and spent several months on the research.

Eventually, he took an alternative approach, utilizing high-level information entanglement and real-time space-time model calculations, to create the [Mechanical Zero Continuum System].

The focus of this system lies in the cumulative core computing power of all Mechanicals.

The more Mechanicals in the system, the higher the instantaneous computational ability.

When tens of thousands of highly condensed Magic Beams precisely strike the same point,

The fierce annihilation of Chaotic Magic Effects can twist a small part of the space-time at the point of collision.

If hit directly, even a Seventh Rank would be severely injured on the spot.

After creating this system, since he was busy with other magic experiments.

Orbins gave the semi-finished product, which had already completed the most crucial framework, to his two students.

He left them responsible for completing it and presenting it to the Council.

It was for this reason that the records of the creator of [Hive Will] in history became the names of Orbins’s two students.

Orbins himself was just listed on the research team.

...

This piece of secret history was a fragment from past-life little Anvis’s memory.

Looking at the Orbins in front of him, who had not yet broken through the Fourth Rank, a kindly smile appeared on Anvis’s face.

This power is still not enough.

Before leaving, perhaps it would be good to slightly accelerate Orbins’s growth in strength.

"Dear Orbins, I wonder if you would be interested in accepting some further investment from me?

Over-stressing yourself like this is not a good thing.

For your health, I can provide you some special treasures in advance, enough for you to promote to the Fourth Rank within half a month without any side effects—"

Upon hearing Anvis’s words, Orbins, who had just retracted his Mechanical Armor, was momentarily stunned.

"Really? Anvis? Then, what must I give in exchange?"

"Don’t worry, Orbins, you don’t need to give anything extra, as this is a win-win situation."

Anvis smiled and explained carefully to Orbins.

"After reaching the Fourth Rank, due to the leap in spiritual power brought by advancing to Mid Rank Professionals, sleep becomes unnecessary.

This way, you will have more time, and a healthier body to engage in your favorite magical research.

And I, in turn, will obtain more of your research outcomes."

Orbins was stunned for a moment, then understood what Anvis meant.

"You want me to help you with some research, but my current capabilities aren’t sufficient, right?"

"Well, Albin, that’s exactly what I mean."

Anvis nodded,

"When your capabilities are sufficient, I hope you can help me develop some high-end Mechanical projects—"

...

Half a Magic Time later, Anvis leisurely left the private room.

Orbins had already agreed with him; he would break through to the Fourth Rank as soon as possible.

Then, as per his nature, he would likely engage in relentless magical research every day after his breakthrough!

Not only would he not slack off, but he would also multitask beyond normal, dramatically increasing his research efficiency!

He would use his advance compensation to enhance himself and then create more value for him.

Such a high-quality subordinate is hard to find even with a lantern.

Thinking of the underground warehouse of his Mechanical Factory in the Empire, where high-rank Mechanical materials had been stored over the years.

Anvis couldn’t help but show a joyous smile.

Sir Orbins, enjoy the warm blessings from another world—

...

That night, to the west of the Royal Capital in Empire, Dugen Town.

On the flat road paved with crushed bluestone, Anvis, cloaked in a black mantle, arrived here.

Tomorrow was the day he intended to leave the Royal Capital.

But tonight, he still had one last piece to place in the Royal Capital.

And for this piece, he needed to find a person utterly despaired of Nobles.

For this purpose, Anvis used his long-unused "Mirror Silver Divination Skill" for tracking people.

When the thought light of Prophecy Magic fell into the shallow basin filled with Moonlight Mercury, a blurry image appeared from within the basin.

First to appear was the face of a young boy.

Then, the image in the basin suddenly pulled back to reveal a full view of a small country town.

Moments later, the viewpoint of the image enlarged further, displaying the provincial territories, including Palosia of the Empire, within Anvis’s sight.

After comparing with the map of the continent, Anvis found that the location shown in the basin was a small town named Dugen Town.

Thus, he traveled here overnight using his family’s alchemical transport.

Since it was nighttime, all the villagers had returned to their homes, causing some trouble for Anvis, forcing him to search house by house.

However, shortly after, he no longer had to worry about finding his target.

—At a corner of the town, suddenly, a sky-high blaze erupted!
