You are all my wings...

Fortunately, due to his physical strength, Leon's overall combat power is now comparable to that of a god. Otherwise, if it were a few months ago, he would definitely not have been able to withstand the pressure of close contact with Terena.

She is also the strongest individual that Mother Leon has ever seen.

As for the Origin Goddess Petrified, since Leon only saw a projection of her, he will not be included in the comparison for the time being.

At this moment, Terena hugged her small chest, examined Leon for a moment, and then said, "Your comprehension efficiency has declined, and the changes in your body have also stopped. That's quite interesting."

Lyon asked in surprise, "My body is changing?"

He only felt the increase in his mental strength, but he didn't feel any changes in his body.

"Ah."

Terena's black pearl-like eyes flickered slightly, and then she said:

"It seems that although your physique is very strong for your rank, your ability to perceive your own physique is slightly lacking, and you cannot detect more subtle changes."

She seemed somewhat disappointed that Leon hadn't noticed the change.

Leon caught her emotion at this moment. It was more obvious than before, although it was still very subtle. Others would have had difficulty noticing it and might have thought that she didn't care at all, and that it was just an objective and calm comment.

But he did indeed sense the emotion, and couldn't help but say:

"So Your Excellency wants me to feel that change? Is this your reason for breaking the experimental procedure and suddenly touching me? And the changes in my body represent a research significance greater than the [Secret Inscription Life] experiment?"

As he said this, what flashed through his mind was the Treina's supernatural organ recorded on the panel.

In addition to her immortal body, she also possesses the Creation Point Spirit Extinguishing Hand, the Penetrating Void and Truth-Seeing Eye, the Flawless Jade-like Divine Skin, and the Myriad Transformations Sensing Divine Brain. These four are clearly supernatural organs that are extremely adept at perception.

Judging from the way she just explored, and considering Astalia's previous actions, she might indeed have been using her supernatural senses to perceive Leon's physical changes.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that she is also enjoying this exploration.

"I've already told you, stop speculating about me, don't you understand?"

A subtle glint flashed in Terena's eyes, before she said coldly, "However, you guessed my thoughts correctly this time. It seems you've learned the art of manipulation. I'll let you off this time, but if you keep making wild guesses, don't blame me for downgrading your reward."

[Goddess Therina's favorability +1%, current favorability 99%]

Wow, the punishment is just a downgraded reward, not direct physical punishment. How can she be so cute?

Isn't her subtext that if you guess correctly, she won't punish you?

Leon suddenly found Terena quite adorable at this stage.

"Now, let's get back to the main topic. Why don't you tell me what changes happened after I absorbed those mysterious characters?"

"It's none of your business."

"My body's changes have nothing to do with me?"

"Hmph, if you can't even notice it yourself, why should I bother telling you the details?"

Terena crossed her arms again, her slender white arms forming a fork in front of her small chest, which seemed to carry a subtle displeasure, and within that displeasure, a barely perceptible hint of embarrassment:

"Anyway, don't ask me that question again! Got it?"

Leon narrowed his eyes and once again noticed a very subtle hint of embarrassment in Terenas.

This emotion was also very difficult to detect; if he hadn't been observing intently, he might not have noticed Terena's subtle emotion.

But why did she feel embarrassed?

Would she feel a little embarrassed if she told him about the changes in her body?

Lyon was filled with curiosity, like a cat scratching at his heart. What subtle changes had just occurred in him that would cause such a detached goddess like Terena to waver so much?

At first, she touched herself, perhaps because the favorability rating was being synchronized to the future.

But no matter what, given that she hasn't yet developed a flawed, detached mindset and a cold personality, she'll most likely be able to control herself and stop exploring after a while.

Referring to their time in the Prison of Colors, M'shiruna and Shitikos also endured it for a long time.

But she had been touching herself for a whole hour!

It was touched repeatedly, even in certain areas several times!

Therefore, Leon believed that she must have seen something more interesting to have touched him for an hour before ending this seemingly strange behavior.

'Right, since my current mental strength isn't enough to perceive this change, why not try divination?'

Without hesitation, Leon immediately activated the [Time and Space Miracle Divination Technique].

However, he was disappointed in just a moment.

Because this magic can transcend time and space, overlook the river of time, and find the answers one seeks.

However, the accuracy of its observations depends on itself.

My current highest observation accuracy is approximately in the 10 picometer range, or around 0.01 nanometers.

This level of precision allows one to see all the structures within a cell, even molecules and atoms, but it can only see the surface of atoms and cannot see the details inside the atomic nucleus.

Is it because my observation is not precise enough, or is this change not at the material level, but rather a deeper, more conceptual, and more spatiotemporal change?

Why are you spacing out?

Terena looked up at Leon, who had stood up, and snorted:

Even if your comprehension efficiency declines, you must continue to comprehend and not stop.

Leon asked in surprise, "Then what about that experiment with the combination of mysterious characters before..."

"Never mind that for now, let's continue our contemplation."

Terena said calmly:

"Since you possess a level of comprehension that surpasses that of most gods despite being a mortal, you should make good use of it and not waste a single second."

Leon could only temporarily suspend his thoughts on the imperceptible changes in his body, maintaining the remaining ten modes and continuing to comprehend them.

Fortunately, even with only ten modes superimposed, this comprehension ability is still incredibly powerful.

Two hours later, he comprehended the twelve mysterious characters again, and his body spontaneously merged with these characters, gaining increased mental power and more fragments of Terena's memories.

This time, he saw an interesting scene again in these memories.

That was a conversation between Terena and another Lord of the Forbidden Zone.

Then, at the very first glance in that memory, Leon confirmed the identity of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone.

Vichy!

Lord of the Abyss!

The reason why her identity could be confirmed at first glance was simply because her appearance was almost 99% similar to Helvie, whom Leon was familiar with.

Moreover, it's not the future eighth-order dark elf black-haired version, but rather Helvie's silver-haired girl form when she was Leon's sister, and her temperament already has a touch of mature beauty, just at the intersection of girlhood and mature womanhood.

A slender, curvaceous figure, and an elegant and composed demeanor.

In the memory, Youheweiz spoke: "The Abyss of Spirituality has recently been surging with the power of the end and the power of the tides of life and death. Terena, if one day I continue to succumb to the path of the evil god, then leave me a curse mark on the Sacred Tree. I will find a way to get this curse mark after I am resurrected."

Terena replied, "Have you made up your mind?"

"Ah."

"Alright, I'll leave this curse mark. Good luck."

"goodbye."

Then came a scene that seemed to depict a shattered spacetime.

'I wonder which era Youheweizi is from at this time.'

'However, I didn't expect that Youheweiz and Treina seem to have a good relationship.'

Thus, the second hour of comprehension time came to an end, and Leon's Rebellious Mode and Invincible Mode automatically exited.

Standing to the side, Terena quickly noticed the change in Leon's efficiency and spoke up:

"Your efficiency has dropped quite a bit; it seems you've accumulated a lot of mental stress?"

Because Lyon's mental strength had increased during this period, the actual mental burden was not too great.

Moreover, his own sharing mode clearly played a significant role in absorbing those mysterious texts, allowing his mental burden to be released more quickly, so he could actually sustain such high-intensity comprehension for another two or three hours.

However, considering that it would be strange if she didn't have much mental stress, she nodded and said, "Yes, I do have some."

To her surprise, Terena's eyes flickered for a moment, then she frowned: "Why do you have this strange aura that you're hiding something from me?"

Was she seen through by her extraordinary organ, the "Eye of True Nature that Pierces Through the Void"?

Leon blinked: "Okay, then I'll tell you the truth. Actually, I'm naturally gifted, and I accumulate less mental stress than most people."

"That's strange."

Terena stared at Lyon: "Since your mental burden is accumulating slowly, why is your comprehension efficiency declining so significantly?"

"Is this comprehension speed too slow?"

"Compared to other test subjects, your comprehension efficiency is naturally very strong, and it may even be enough for you to learn a twelfth-order spell within a few decades. You are arguably the most intelligent species with the strongest comprehension I have ever seen."

Terena shook her head: "But compared to your previous performance, it's far worse. How could you have declined so much? How can you activate that physical transformation again like this?"

Lyon, naturally unable to reveal his own methods, said, "I've always been like this; the first hour is always the fastest for comprehending any magic."

Terena frowned: "This time I didn't lie."

Leon breathed a sigh of relief, seemingly having fooled his way through.

"However, why do you possess such a strange talent?"

Terena said, "I need to check you carefully. Take your clothes off!"

Chapter 530 Terena: No need to go back

Leon: "My talent shouldn't have anything to do with whether or not I take my clothes off, right?"

"It depends. If I remove everything that's obstructing my observation, I should be able to see something."

Terena said something, then shook her head:

"Forget it, I'll help you take them off. It'll be a waste of time if you do it yourself."

With a casual wave of her hand, the layer of clothing covering Leon's body instantly tore apart and disappeared, revealing Leon's strong and fit physique.

Her gaze swept over Lyon, a look of satisfaction on her face:

"Not bad. You're only at the seventh level, yet you've managed to develop such a powerful physique. Your talent is even stronger than I initially estimated."

[Goddess Therina's favorability +1%, current favorability 100%]

[Affection level has been reached; Super Brain Mode can be activated through the first QW].

[The Deep Brain Mode can be activated through the first Deep xx]

[Note: After the initial activation of the mode, the super brain mode can be activated automatically for 1 hour every 24 hours.]

Leon noticed that her gaze this time shone with a kind of penetrating power, and as she scanned, she saw through his skin inside and out.

Clearly, she activated a stronger version of her supernatural organs, enhancing her perception and awareness.

However, after looking at Leon's exposed body for a while, Terena frowned and said, "Strange, your talent is really strange. Why does it fade away every now and then, but your body doesn't show any abnormal changes?"

Lyon felt a slight chill in his heart.

Having been in the industry for so long, this is the first time I've encountered such a strong person who is carefully exploring their own talents.

The other high-level experts were often just surprised, but did not take any further action to investigate.

"Your Excellency, this is the nature of my ability to change gradually over time. If you would like to see me activate that subtle change again, please give me some free time and try again tomorrow."

"Will your endowment recover tomorrow?"

"Of course, I've always been like this."

"Alright then, it seems you weren't lying. Continue your contemplation, and I'll come back to see you tomorrow."

Terena turned and left decisively, striding towards the spacious hall ahead:

"I'll go do other experiments, so don't slack off."

"Don't worry, Your Excellency, this is your territory, I naturally know what to do."
