I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 271 The Nickname Wasn't Wrong

"Where is he? He was right here! How could he have disappeared again?"

Along the coastline, Bige, who had followed Feng Xue's scent all the way there, looked at the empty coast and the monsters coming and going carrying various materials, and for a moment felt like she was about to explode.

Knowing that there were probably no intelligent beings here, she grabbed a demon that looked somewhat humanoid and pulled out a talisman.

"A Bloody Retrospective!"

Sharp fingertips pierced the monster's body, and the talisman designed by Feng Xue began to take effect. Although these monsters were just things like mass-produced familiars, their ability to understand commands already indicated that they possessed a certain "memory function".

However, memories cannot be extracted from these creatures that cannot even speak under normal circumstances, and Bigeley cannot spend time teaching them to read and write. Fortunately, she has now unlocked some classic skills, and as the monster's body withers, its memories flash before Bigeley's eyes.

"Aaaaaah! I'll fight you to the death!"

Seeing Feng Xue and Melo leave together towards the Hidden Village, Bige felt as if her entire bat was about to burst into flames. Her blood-red wings suddenly spread open, whipping up a gust of wind that disrupted the construction site...

……

"Ugh, I'm so dizzy... Your teleportation ability is so dizzying! Sigh, if only I could create a giant vortex!"

Melo's eyes darted around like swirls, while he uttered lines that left Feng Xue speechless.

"Doesn't the idea of ​​a giant whirlpool sound even more dizzying?"

Hearing Feng Xue say this, Melo shook her head vigorously before saying:
"A whirlpool won't make you dizzy! Because the direction is consistent and the vision remains smooth, unlike yours which keeps flashing. Oh well, I'll definitely take you on a ride in a whirlpool sometime in the future!"

"Alright, alright, but let's conduct the spell experiments first. I've set up some rituals here, making it easier to use mana. Do you have any divine spells you'd like to test?" Feng Xue didn't want to argue with Merlo, so she quickly took out various talisman materials, ritual materials, and paper and pen for calculations. Merlo had already thought about it before coming, so he didn't stand on ceremony and said directly:

"If we're talking about the first thing we studied, it would definitely be the Enlightenment Technique!"

"Could you explain its specific effects?" Although the name "Enlightenment Technique" made it clear what it was about, Feng Xue still asked to avoid cultural differences.

"In my world, this is a divine spell that enhances intelligence. You could say that the entire sea race was built on this spell. However, after coming here, this spell has become a status spell that requires energy to maintain."

As Melo spoke, he began preparing the altar using the props provided by Feng Xue. Although there was no sea god here, Little Bell had once been a deity who had absorbed a portion of the ocean's authority. It was still possible for her to temporarily act as the sea god and provide Melo with some faith support.

The first round of spellcasting proceeded as expected. The monsters and wild animals that were the recipients of the spells all exhibited an increase in their spirituality. Although they were still far from being "intelligent," there were still changes.

“In my original world, this spell was not very effective, but it was permanent and could be used repeatedly. Every year during the Sea God Festival, each race would use the faith accumulated over the year to perform the Enlightenment spell, which was intended to improve the talents of newborns during the year and also to increase the number of sea creatures.”

"But now this skill has become a status skill, and it will expire after a maximum of half an hour each time it is cast. I can only keep casting it, and then teach them to meditate while the spell is active, but they forget it again after half an hour..."

Melo muttered about his actions after transmigrating, but Feng Xue wasn't listening closely. His attention was entirely focused on the spellcasting changes recorded by the little bell. From the ritual text, it was clear that this blue-bar spell was indeed a typical "divine spell," and structurally speaking, it could even be called a "divine descent spell."

"In conclusion, the core of this spell is actually to bring the 'Sea God' down upon the recipient, allowing the recipient to share the 'Sea God's intelligence' and thereby gain wisdom. So, the intelligence of your sea race is still shared?" Feng Xue disassembled the basic structures one by one from the spell's ritual, her expression slightly subtle.

Upon hearing this, Melo shook his head and said:

"Although that's the principle, it's only in the neonatal period. Once you have wisdom, you can meditate on your own and strengthen your soul. As the strength of your soul increases, your intelligence will also increase!"

As Melo spoke, he suddenly seemed to understand something, and slapped his forehead—

"Oh my god! So that's why I've become so stupid!"

"Good grief, you've allocated your intelligence to those sea creatures?"

Feng Xue stared at Melo in disbelief. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Melo had indeed been getting smarter ever since she met him today…

"So this wasn't an illusion, but rather the intelligence that was transferred to the marine creatures returned after the spell was stopped? I knew she wasn't stupid. That's why Bigeley and the others called her a stupid fish! Wait! Something's not right!"

Thinking of this, Feng Xue was suddenly startled—

"You mean, this blue bar... well, the spells under the rules of this world still have the ability to make you share intelligence with others?"

“I didn’t expect this before, after all, I become stupid after casting spells, and I’m not aware of it when I’m not casting spells.” Melo shrugged, but then fell into deep thought. After a moment, she nodded and said:
"The basic mechanism is that the divine power of this magic is supposed to carry the 'wisdom of the sea god,' but since there is no sea god, wisdom cannot be generated out of thin air, so it absorbed my wisdom? The rules of this world are really outrageous!"

"I think it's even more absurd that you've been able to keep casting this spell for so many years and only realized it now!" Feng Xue rolled her eyes, but her gaze towards the ritual deepened.

If even one's own brain can be separated, doesn't that mean there's a part in this ritual that constructs a "server"?

Her previously somewhat casual attitude suddenly turned enthusiastic. Feng Xue's fingers flew across the keyboard, disassembling and reassembling each design, and then quickly taking shape under the exhaustive search of the little bell.

Having worked with Bigeley before, this time the operation was much smoother, and a new spell was completed in just a few minutes.

but……

Considering the issue of dividing the brain, Feng Xue still handed the spherical talisman to Melo.

"Hey, why don't you try again?"
