Leo completely changed the direction of previous artificial intelligence. If previous artificial intelligence needed to collect information to grow on its own, it also needed to upload the information to the central hub so that the central hub could make specific instructions based on the environment of each terminal.
So Leo is essentially reactivating these metallized souls, giving these dead souls a new life.
The complex programming logic allows these souls to possess the knowledge level of a level three or four wizard the moment they are activated, enabling them to communicate with life as if it were a normal conversation.
This isn't artificial intelligence, it's a cheat code, it's a system, it's Cheat System!
If Leo's experiment succeeds, it could equip every lower-level life form with a cheat code. For example, barbarians have extremely low levels of knowledge, but their programmed souls could directly tell them what to do.
They directly implanted a high-level encyclopedia soul into the barbarian. At that point, the barbarian only needed to focus on fighting, and everything else could be handled by the metallized soul.
Barbarians can call these reprogrammed, metallic souls "grandfather," "brother," or "father" without any problem.
It's as if each of them is wearing a Level Four Stigmata Wizard, providing comprehensive guidance. Such a superior cheat code completely surpasses the previous two generations of artificial intelligence.
The prospects for the experiment were bright, but the process was arduous; Leo's workload was no less than that of the Creator recreating life.
The moment the Wizard Tower laboratory doors closed, they remained closed for ten years, shutting out both Interstellar Wanderer and Undying Body.
For ten years, the battles in the sky never ceased, and new life emerged in the silent territory.
"Boom"
The wizard's tower in the center of the territory, unchanged for ten years, suddenly exploded violently, blasting the entire tower into the sky. The deafening roar terrified countless short-lived creatures, who knew this 'mountain' had existed for generations—why had it suddenly exploded today?
Leo leaned on his Godslaying Staff, looking at his wizard tower that was flying through the air, his eyes twitching uncontrollably.
Ten years
Just a few meters away from completing the soul program, but at the very last moment, his mental strength relaxed slightly, his mind failed to remain calm, and his fingers trembled slightly. The experiment failed instantly, the metallized soul program became disordered and exploded, blowing the entire laboratory to smithereens.
"What a pity, ten years of hard work gone just like that," Yaoyao said.
"It's alright. I've learned a lot from this experience of failure."
Leo was indeed constantly refining his experiment in his mind. He didn't expect to succeed on the first try; he was content if it could be completed within a hundred years.
Just as Leo was preparing to restart the experiment, a message suddenly arrived from the Fate Wizard Book.
[All battle achievements have been calculated and rewards have been distributed. Please check them yourself. You are now permitted to return to the Wizard World.]
Upon seeing the message released by the Fate Wizard Book, Leo breathed a sigh of relief. What seemed like a simple announcement of war merits was actually a sign that the Returning Breath World had completely surrendered, and that the two major factions had resolved their internal conflicts.
Battle merits cannot be awarded unless the benefits have been fully distributed!
Leo reviewed his war achievements.
[40000000]
"40 million battle merits, these Supreme Lord are really generous!!"
When Yao Yao saw the long string of zeros, her Yaoyao glazed over.
Based on the calculation that one battle merit is gained for killing a Level-Four Lord of Souls, this number would require Leo to kill 40 million Lord of Souls.
Even the Lord of Souls the Returning Breath World at his peak didn't exceed 12,000 battle merits, and now Leo has been given 40 million battle merits!!!
Furthermore, below the 40 million battle merits, there are two lines of text...
[The reward is ten medium-sized worlds for the Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard, and one permanent territory in the Returning Breath World.]
[A reasonable request can be made to the Supreme Lord!]
"Ten medium-sized worlds, we're rich! We're rich! We can use them all, and even if we sell a few, it's no big deal."
What is Leo's biggest problem after becoming Stigmata Wizard?
Of course, resources are insufficient; this is something all Stigmata Wizard know.
Without sufficient world support, his resource utilization rate is even lower than that of a seasoned Level Four Stigmata Wizard.
Now, that's great. Give him ten medium-sized worlds directly. Even if they're all barren, that's enough to sustain Leo during his time as Level-Five Stigmata Wizard.
In Yaoyao's words
It's out.
They really made it!
From this day forward, the label of poverty has been removed, and the old farmer who had been poor for half his life has been transformed into a large landowner!
Leo's lips curled into an uncontrollable smile; he had truly transformed from a poor peasant into a millionaire!
Besides the ten medium-sized worlds, there's also a territory in the Returning Breath World. There's not much to say about that; he's occupied it for decades, so what wasn't his is now his. He can just send academy wizards over to develop and utilize it later.
Regarding the third reward, Leo did not hesitate and directly contacted the Supreme Lord of the Sword of Winter through the Fate Wizard Book.
[Great Sword of Winter, Supreme Lord, I need the complete knowledge inheritance of the Returning Breath World!]
Black Soluo is only at level four, and there is still a lot of advanced knowledge he cannot access. Now that there is a reward that allows him to make unconditional requests to the Supreme Lord, Leo is not going to let such a good opportunity pass him by.
Sword of Winter: [ Atomic Control, are you sure you want to use this precious opportunity?]
Sword of Winter: [This is a special reward that only you, among all the Stigmata Wizard, have received. It is the greatest reward for your outstanding performance in the war. You should think it over carefully.]
Leo understood the meaning behind Sword of Winter's words. Normally, Stigmata Wizard would receive battle merits, and those with slightly larger merits would receive world rewards. Only Leo, because he saved the entire Body Refinement Wizard School, was given an extra reward that allowed him to make demands on the Supreme Lord.
Leo: [I've thought it through. What could be more appealing to a wizard than the knowledge of a World Cluster?]
Sword of Winter: [You're right, a wizard's pursuit is always endless knowledge.]
Sword of Winter: [I will send you all the knowledge of the Returning Breath World later. Remember, only the knowledge you master is truly yours. Don't get lost in the superficial aspects of knowledge and lose yourself.]
Leo: [Thank you, sir.]
"This time it has to be, it has to be," Yaoyao muttered softly.
Leo stared at the Fate Wizard Book, his heart pounding. The inherited knowledge of Black Soluo, the Level-Four Lord of Souls, contained no method for soul resurrection.
Now that he has obtained the entire knowledge system of the Returning Breath World, Leo refuses to believe that he still cannot find a way to revive Alice.
"They've arrived."
Within minutes, a large amount of information came from the Fate Wizard Book, so much so that the Fate Wizard Book kept adding pages to itself.
Leo seemed to have forgotten about the possibility of returning to the Wizard World, and focused all her energy on her studies.
He doesn't need to control everything; he just needs to find a way to resurrect Alice.
Leo quickly flipped through the pages of information. The Interstellar Wanderer and the Undying Body had both come to Leo wanting to return to the Wizard World together, but Yaoyao had refused them from afar.
Seeing Leo's frantic state, they didn't disturb him further, but simply asked Yaoyao to tell Leo that they had come.
Other Stigmata Body Refinement Wizard also came to invite Leo, but Yaoyao intercepted them from a distance, preventing them from disturbing Leo.
Two months passed, and finally, as Leo flipped through the pages to the very end, she saw it and muttered to herself,
"All the soul essence absorbed by the Lord of Souls will be stored within the Returning Breath World Will, thereby enhancing the power of the Returning Breath World's essence."
" Alice's soul's essence resides within the Returning Breath World Will. Once that essence is found, Alice can be resurrected."
Leo laughed maniacally, pointing at the Fate Wizard Book for Yaoyao to see.
"Found it! Finally found it!"
Since Alice's death, he has tried every possible method, even splitting his own soul to form Black Soluo, all in an effort to find a way to resurrect Alice.
The Tower of Elements had told him that resurrecting the dead violated the rules of the universe and was impossible.
He did not give up.
He's finally found a solution!!
Yaoyao watched Leo laughing uncontrollably, then carefully examined the information in the Fate Wizard Book.
After Leo calmed down a bit, he said, " Leo, calm down first, and read the message carefully before you speak."
Leo's gaze returned to the Fate Wizard Book, and he read the description of the Returning Breath World Will absorbing the power of the soul's origin several times over.
Although the smile faded from his face, his eyes remained firm. "Don't be afraid. As long as there's hope, that's a good thing."
You should think carefully about the consequences of doing this.
"What's there to be afraid of? So what if I destroy the Returning Breath World? Even if I have to fight against the entire universe, I will resurrect Alice."
Leo put away the Fate Wizard Book and flew towards the spatial passage back to the Wizard World, as if the destruction of the Returning Breath World he had just mentioned was just a trivial matter.
In fact, Leo's expression was already extremely grim. The Returning Breath World Will did indeed retain the original power of all the souls that had died at the hands of the Lord of Souls.
This was a method secretly manipulated by the Returning Breath World Will, bypassing all the Lord of Souls. It was impossible to detect unless one reached the level of Supreme Lord. Therefore, Black Soluo was unaware that when he absorbed the power of the Soul Origin, a portion of his power was stolen by the Returning Breath World Will.
It was only after these Returning Breath World were defeated and all their knowledge was handed over to the Wizard World that the Returning Breath World Will came to light.
However, these primal forces have long been integrated with the Returning Breath World Will, making it virtually impossible for Leo to distinguish which one among the countless primal souls belongs to Alice.
The only way is to shatter the Returning Breath World Will and release all the power of the soul's origin. Only by doing so can there be a slight chance of finding Alice.
The consequence of doing so is not only making an enemy of all the Lord of Souls, but also an enemy of the entire Wizard World.
