After Mayer left, Adam felt quite pleased. The Mage Council had granted him significant power, showing their trust and making him feel recognized.
This was great news. With support from various Towers, the personal chip wouldn’t need lengthy market testing after its completion, as the credibility of the Towers and Great Archmages would be the best promotion.
Once Garfield adjusted to his split identity, he finally had time to question Adam about his recent activities, which seemed pointless to him. “Master, why are you doing this? The personal chip doesn’t directly benefit you, right? You’d be better off focusing on your electromagnetic magic research, which would make you stronger. No matter how good the personal chip is, the benefits go to others. You wouldn’t lose anything without it, would you?”
Adam found it hard to answer Garfield’s questions. The chip’s functions weren’t crucial for him; what mattered most was big data and cloud computing.
Before coming to this world, he had been the largest database and processor, understanding the importance of information and data better than anyone. Those were the essentials. With this platform, he could leverage his true talent to sift through vast amounts of data, increasing his efficiency in work and research.
He could even use algorithms to spread his will across the entire network, becoming an invisible filter and interceptor.
In that scenario, all mages using the personal chip would have no privacy from him, although this approach wasn’t very ethical.
Ultimately, what mattered most was Adam’s belief in the shared evolution of mages, transcending the ethereal void.
His greatest desire was knowledge, and he was eager to explore what lay beyond the void. He wanted to know if, one day, when he broke free from his current environment, he would find even greater knowledge awaiting him.
…A day later, Adam arrived at the Third Tower.
While the overall tone of the Third Tower was somewhat dim, it felt modern, with facilities matching those of the other Towers.
The number of mages here was relatively small, and the city at the foot of the Tower was also sparsely populated. Every mage wore a black robe with a hood, giving off an unapproachable vibe.
Suddenly, a cheerful voice rang out.
Wendy, dressed in her vibrant clothes, appeared before him. “Hi! Adam! Good to see you again! Wow, you’re already a level-four mage!”
Before Adam could respond, she eagerly took his arm. “Her Holiness Laura told me to work with you, along with my sister. Isn’t that exciting? You have two level-eight mages as your subordinates!” With that, she opened a portal and pulled Adam through.
Adam could feel the energy layers shifting multiple times in an instant, ultimately transforming into a type he had never encountered before.
Wendy led him through the Third Tower's authorization, directly into Ayesha's room.
After exchanging greetings, Ayesha said, “Her Holiness wants you to know that whatever you need, as long as it doesn’t involve information you aren’t qualified to access, we will fully cooperate.”
“I need a plane Origin as the big data server.”
This server was crucial, as it needed to handle tasks like querying, updating, transaction management, indexing, caching, optimization, security, and multi-user access control.
Given the vastness of the Mage World and the continuous data collection from each personal chip, ordinary servers simply couldn’t manage such immense data. So, Adam had abandoned the idea of creating a physical server.
Every Origin was a vast, nearly limitless collection of information. A healthy Origin processed endless information constantly, adjusting its state, responding to emergencies, and recording conditions of every being within it. With some modifications, it could easily function as a large server and processor. ṞаNɵʙƐS
Wendy jumped in front of Adam, clucking her tongue. “Wow, you really don’t hold back. Your first request is for an Origin? Even my sister and I don’t qualify for such high-level resources.”
Ayesha didn’t respond to that but instead began a spatial transmission with Adam and Wendy. When Adam opened his eyes again, he found himself in a void.
Before him, an expansive space was filled with numerous large white orbs sealed with spells.
Ayesha introduced, “This is the Mage World’s repository. These Origins are healthy ones collected over tens of thousands of years. Tell me your specific requirements, and I will find the right one for you.”
Adam had always thought that after a plane's sacrifice, the Origins would be directly consumed. However, it appeared that the Heart of the Mage World didn’t devour everything; some had their wills erased and were stored away.
“Healthy, blank, large,” he thought for a moment and added, “Preferably with high biodiversity and energy levels before collection, and a complex power system.”
Ayesha’s fingers danced in the air, and the spell chains made a crisp sound. “There are none here that meet all your requirements; they’ve all been sacrificed. I can only select the one that is closest to what you want. Wendy, go and seal Number 236.”
After instructing Wendy, Ayesha told Adam, “Number 236 is a large plane Origin discovered long ago. It hadn’t birthed life when it was found and captured. It’s the healthiest and largest one here.”
Adam wasn’t disappointed that he couldn't get exactly what he wanted; this was still a good outcome. He could simply use more algorithms to build additional models.
Before long, Wendy returned, dragging the chain and handing one end to Adam. He immediately felt an unimaginable weight and momentarily couldn’t hold on, letting it slip from his grasp.
Ayesha shot her sister a glare, took the chain herself, and said, “You can’t operate on the Origin here in the Mage World. We need to go to another location. If you need anything prepared in advance, let me know, and I will help you find it.”
Yeah! Wendy's back. I love her.
