Looking through the last part of the nostalgic first book that I received as a reward in the game, I contemplated the worth of the small plan that was formulating in my head…
The book was none other than 'Lightning Cell', which was handed to me by 'uncle blue', who was also the current Emperor of the Great Lightning Empire.
Though he didn't say much when I asked him about the origin of the book as I wondered if it was a system reward or something of another nature, I was at least able to understand that it was somehow related to the history of the Lightning Empire.
Although not to the degree of being as abnormal as the Draconian manual, the old 'Lightning Cell' book was obviously not normal as well, as not only did it record parts of the history of the whole Light Domain, but it also contained a peculiar 'Elemental Art' that was able to set a proper foundation to my current 'Cell Mastery'.
As if that wasn't enough, the latter quarter of the book even contained an 'Elemental Control' technique that was specially optimized for the utilization of 'Lightning Cell' users.
Yet, what ruined the special book that would be worthy of being the gem of any book collection from being a complete set of elemental techniques that could be used till the end of the elemental path that I knew of was that the 'Elemental Control' technique was simply incomplete…
Other than having a recording of the correct flow process, the method for carving the flow channel itself had 90% of its steps missing!
Back when I just reached the 3rd stage, I really wished I could use this 'Elemental Control' technique as it was a rare optimized technique that was specifically made for my core 'Elemental Art', but as I tried to derive what was missing from it, I quickly understood that even modern advanced mathematical methods proved useless when incorporated into the mystical elemental system of the 'Lost Realm', especially with how much was lost of the technique, tons of time invested into roundabout ways would be required, which I obviously didn't have that much of.
In fact, I couldn't even say for sure if it was lost or that the researcher just died before he could complete it as there seemed to be no missing pages. As such, all I could do was give up and wait to choose from the complete techniques I had once I was able to.
However…
'It might work!'
If this 'Knowledge Processing Center' was really capable of supercomputing, then what might be possible if I spent years researching could be done in a much lesser amount of time!
That was the very first thought that popped into my head when I heard Long nickname the 'Knowledge Processing Center', but a second bold thought took over after, the same thought that made me check the Draconic Manual first…
'If it's actually possible to complete an incomplete technique, then what about merging an incomplete one and a complete one together?'
After my failed quick try of researching into 'Elemental Control' techniques, I wasn't completely confident if even a supercomputer could recover what's lost of the technique, but… for most cases having high-grade reference material was usually helpful.
As I read the manual and confirmed its value that rivaled that of the optimized technique, the thought of pointing the 'Knowledge Processing Center' into merging rather than completing only sprouted further in my mind.
After all, the nature of the two techniques seemed to be of two different extremes, and so they had their own extreme strengths as well as obvious deficits, merging them together might make a technique that's more of an 'all-rounder' which suited my taste.
Of course, adding two extremes didn't always work well, putting water to fire would only cause the loss of both, but even then I couldn't help but think about the positive possibilities!
The presence of the complete 'Nameless Draconic Manual' gave me confidence that failure wouldn't cost much, other than the points which I didn't have an urgent thing to buy with, I could still give up and just learn the Draconic technique if the result was unsatisfactory…

'It's better to give it a try at least…'
One could only carve one flow channel on his elemental conductors, and even though I had quite a number of conductors for different elements, practicing elemental control wasn't something that could be done in the little time, not to mention practicing multi-techniques which would only leave me disoriented.
Instead of just the relatively low damage yet large range of the 'Elemental Control' technique of 'Lightning Cell' or just the high damage and low number target specialization of the 'Elemental Control' technique of the 'Draconic Manual', I wanted to get the best of both worlds!
A gamble that wasn't particularly a high-stakes one yet could possibly have huge returns was a gamble that I was willing to make!
Having finally made my mind, I put away the old 'Lightning Cell' book as I finally placed my hand around the helmet-shaped 'Knowledge Processing Center'.
[ Brain Scan starting! ]
I could feel a quick jolt in my head as laser-like lights were emitted from the helmet, but it didn't last long as I felt nothing a few seconds later…
[ Brain Scan done! Please proceed to assign the center's first task! ]
"What now?"
The helmet was still on my head as I didn't remove it just yet before asking Long of the next step.
{Simple, just transmit your thoughts directly into the helmet, only slightly thinking of what you want to do would do the job.}
'Simple indeed…'
[ First task 'Merging of Techniques' has been received! Calculating task cost… ]
Another second went by before a very close system panel that had a lighter blue shade of color appeared…
[ Tasklist:
- 'Merging of Techniques' - 7897 SSP ]
'Hmmm?'
[ A special discount for first-time use of the 'Knowledge Processing Center' has been applied! Tasklist updated! ]
