Main God Creation Rules

In my memory, when I used the two mages as bait to lure them into another world, I used a similar lie and took advantage of their compassion. I never expected that after such a long time (relative to the lifespan of Nanoha Takamachi and Fate Testarossa), they would still maintain the same essence.

Perhaps back then, Lin Yi would have wondered whether it was kindness or naivety, but now...

"It's just a process."

--------------segmentation--------------

Upon entering the Earth branch of the Time and Space Administration, Eve unsurprisingly attracted many curious glances. Subsequently, through her interactions with these still-naive new mages, Lin Yi obtained a considerable amount of information about the Time and Space Administration, but even more about the organization they belonged to called "Mobile Section Six".

In general, this is an organization established within the Time and Space Administration to investigate and handle events related to the ancient heritage. However, judging from the combat equipment of these mages, Lin Yi simply couldn't believe that such an armed team existed solely for archaeology.

Of course, in order to help Eve truly integrate into the identity of a "newbie," Lin Yi let her continue along this topic.

“太古遗产？”

"Yes, they are mostly artifacts left behind by other prehistoric civilizations. Most of them are harmless, but some are very dangerous, such as—oh right, the Seed of the Holy Stone! The captain said that they met because of the Seed of the Holy Stone."

After having the main god record the concept of the "Seed of the Holy Stone," Lin Yi asked Eve to change the subject.

With deliberate guidance, the conversation naturally led to the magical artifacts in the hands of the girls.

"I'm not entirely sure about the specific principles, but it seems that only qualified people can use magical artifacts?"

"That's right, the captain became an AAA-level air combat ace at the age of nine, that's really amazing!"

"Would Eve like to try it too?"

At Lin Yi's prompting, Eve nodded, though her expression remained somewhat indifferent, and then took the magical artifact from the hand of the girl who looked as excited as if she were about to test it herself.

Beneath her cuffs, numerous sealed energy circuits were awakened the instant Eve touched the magical artifact. Within half a second, they completely analyzed the internal properties of the artifact, quickly determined the most reasonable activation method, and then extracted a portion of the energy to send into the artifact.

To the surrounding mages, however, it appeared as if this magical device, which was supposed to only respond to its designated mage, had begun to function...

This scene was "coincidentally" witnessed by Fate Testarossa, the captain of the Lightning Squadron who had just returned from the Mobile Division 6. After a conversation and some assurances, the Mobile Division 6, which was struggling to maintain order in Narumi City due to a lack of manpower, gained a temporary mage member. Eve, who was originally just an "ordinary person," was transformed into the fourth official mage of Earth.

--------------segmentation--------------

Eve received a staff-shaped magical artifact. Although it wasn't obvious from her expression, Lin Yi, who had been observing her closely, could tell that she didn't like the artifact.

Of course, it wasn't just Eve; Lin Yi wasn't entirely satisfied with this magical artifact either, though the reasons might differ...

"The structure is too simple. Not to mention compared to the 'Heart of the Rising Sun' or 'Thunder Axe' level, even the one we just came into contact with is far more advanced than this."

That's to be expected. When they rushed over after receiving the news, it was already quite remarkable that the mages of the Mobile Section 6 would carry spare magical devices. How much more advanced would they want? Moreover, since Eve herself can react to any magical device (due to Lin Yi's control), she can just grab any one. After all, it's not about fighting powerful invaders but about maintaining order in the city, so there's no point in using too much destructive power.

After scanning the internal structure of the magical artifact again and confirming that there was nothing else to study, Lin Yi was about to give up, but he hesitated for a moment after noticing Eve's internal emotional fluctuations...

I made some minor modifications, but at least the energy utilization efficiency won't be as bad.

Eve, floating in mid-air, slowed down slightly.

"Thank you, Father."

There was no response from the other end, but the girl's grip on the magical artifact tightened slowly.

Time and Space Administration: Chapter 452 New System

With no other intruders appearing, the emergency response taken by the Time and Space Administration made good progress. Although people were quite wary and suspicious of this self-proclaimed "non-interference protector," they were not really foolish enough to easily become hostile to the other party without knowing anything about them. With the cooperation of some "civilian organizations," the chaotic situation in World Six was quickly quelled within a week.

After the mission was completed, the Mobile Section Six, as the "Ancient Heritage Investigation and Protection Team," naturally had no reason to remain here. Of course, a more significant reason was likely the potential negative impact that the team's existing formidable combat capabilities might have on the city currently undergoing reconstruction. With a transfer order issued, the Mobile Section Six was due to return. But before that, they had to resolve another issue...

"I plan to take Eve back with me."

It was Nanoha Takamachi, the captain of the Star Squad, who spoke. As the first person to find Eve and the person in charge of bringing her here, her attitude was surprisingly firm: "According to the regulations of the Time and Space Administration, as long as the conditions are met, we can fully recruit her as a member of the Administration."

Faced with her friend's resolute attitude, even Fate Testarossa, the captain of the Lightning Squad who had originally intended to object, had to soften her tone: "But can she really be trusted?"

Nominally the commander of Mobile Section 6, but in reality adhering to the "separation of powers" within the unit, Hayate Yagami also harbored the same suspicion: "The timing and location of her appearance are too coincidental..."

"However, there is absolutely no problem with her identity!"

—If Lin Yi couldn't even forge an identity after hiding in this world for over a decade, what's the point of fighting the fragment war? He might as well give up and go to sleep.

The assistance from the Main God Space had a much stronger effect than expected. After several verifications, apart from confirming that Eve's "relatives" had all unfortunately perished in the disaster, everything else was exactly as she had described.

However, this alone was clearly not enough to reassure the other two mages, especially now that they had just received another message from headquarters.

"Nanoha, do you remember what I said before?"

"You mean those things that appeared in the air in Narumi City?"

“That’s right… The headquarters has sent back the verification results. It shows that these substances diffused in the air are not harmful at first glance, but if certain substances are added, they will quickly cause an overreaction in the human body. If this substance appeared on a large scale, it could be understood as a coincidence, but it only appeared in Narumi City. In addition, an ‘unknown person’ appeared here not long ago, which makes people really suspicious that there is no connection between them.”

Lin Yi, who had overheard a conversation between several mages using certain methods, realized what they were talking about.

For safety reasons, Lin Yi, who had just entered the forbidden zone of life, directly spread a large number of dormant viruses around his base, namely Narumi City. Under normal circumstances, this virus is not harmful, but if an unexpected situation occurs and another virus spreads, it will cause an overreaction - an absolutely fatal reaction to the human body.

Lin Yi had used a similar method to trick the world consciousness of the magical world. However, after noticing the existence of the Time and Space Administration, he realized that this "small trick" was no match for the sheer size of the Time and Space Administration. A hasty withdrawal would only attract attention, so he simply ignored it. Little did he expect that it would become a point of suspicion now...

On the other hand, when Lin Yi chose this world as his battlefield, he was destined to never completely escape the eyes of his adversaries; it was just a matter of degree of suspicion.

While Lin Yi was pondering, the "Big Three" of the Mobile Section Six also roughly concluded that Takamachi Nanoha's harmless argument ultimately prevailed.

"...Even if Eve's identity is indeed questionable, I believe that someone with that kind of look in their eyes is definitely not a bad person!"

—A reason that makes no sense, yet was still accepted.

Lin Yi was not surprised by this situation at all. After all, he had taken this into account when choosing Eve's contact. Based on the analysis of the personality of this native mage of World Six, apart from the combat power brought by her strong aptitude, she often relied on her intuition rather than rational judgment to act. Given her outburst of sympathy and Eve's own situation, it was impossible for her to let the "lonely and helpless girl" stay in this chaotic city. It would be one thing if she didn't have the aptitude, but since she did, as a "fellow countryman," Takamachi Nanoha was very likely to lead Eve down the same old path.

Simply put, become a mage.

After confirming that Eve would be joining the Time and Space Administration, Lin Yi didn't pay attention to the remaining details. After all, as long as the general tone remained unchanged, even if problems arose in the details, the Main God Space would support them and things wouldn't be too bad. In comparison, Lin Yi felt that he was the worst off.

The spiritual energy system and the metal activity system have completely collapsed, and the rules system is still in the absorption and integration stage. At present, apart from a half-crippled magic system, there is not even a usable power system.

"We can only go by the nearest option..."

He muttered to himself, his gaze fixed on the complex data projected into the air before him.

Ancient Belka

Midcherda

The basic magic formulas used by the two great mages of the Time and Space Administration are essentially applications of magic power. However, in terms of details, the former focuses more on burst damage and ignores the harm to the user, while the latter emphasizes efficiency and safety.

Besides these two existing magical formulas, the Time and Space Administration seems to have developed derivative formulas similar to "Modern Belka," but they were excluded by Lin Yi, who urgently needed a new system, because they were not mature enough. Instead of spending time researching a new system, it would be better to wait for the rule fragments to be analyzed.

All of the above information comes from Eve's exchanges with the members of Section 6. Although information such as the principles of magical device manufacturing is not easy to obtain, knowledge of magical formulas is readily available to everyone within the Time and Space Administration. In addition, Eve has also become a "quasi-magician," so obtaining this knowledge is not difficult.

"Then……"

Looking at his right hand, now empty due to the lack of the "spark," Lin Yi frowned slightly: "What should we do?"

P.S.: I had a fever yesterday, sorry.

Time and Space Administration: Chapter 453 Magic Core

"This is the birthplace of the Time and Space Administration, Midgear."

It was the third day after leaving World Six. With a slight tremor as the warship docked, Eve, led by Nanoha Takamachi, stepped out of the hatch and saw a world filled with magical and technological elements.

The skyscrapers, often hundreds of stories high, seem to defy gravity. The wide, clean roads have few actual vehicles; instead, most people move through the air as if flying. Without exception, everyone carries the most distinctive "color" of this city—or rather, this civilization—in their hands or on their feet.

"Magical device..."

"That's right, these are all magical artifacts, but they are all civilian-use devices for people's daily lives and cannot be used for combat like we do."

Even just a glimpse into the city was enough for Lin Yi to glimpse a portion of the power of this behemoth called the "Time and Space Administration." Although it paled in comparison to the grand scheme of the "World Tree," which created a second void system out of thin air, it surpassed it in its details. At least, Lin Yi had never seen anything in the fragmented worlds that could so thoroughly infuse the power of a system... Perhaps it was because he hadn't had enough contact with it?

Regardless of anything else, the extraordinary prosperity before his eyes alone convinced Lin Yi of the correctness of his decision to infiltrate the Time and Space Administration. Even if he ultimately could not join the research or military organizations to obtain intelligence, the knowledge hidden behind these appearances alone would allow Lin Yi to establish another system different from spiritual energy and metal activation.

"Before you decide where you're going, Eve, I want you to tell me why you want to join the Time and Space Administration?"

Just as Lin Yi was rapidly collecting data through Eve's perspective, the mage beside the girl suddenly spoke in a serious tone, his gaze suggesting that a wrong answer would have serious consequences.

When confronted with Nanoha Takamachi's "question," the girl answered proactively before Lin Yi could give her a hint: "For my wish."

"desire?"

"Yes, that is my wish."

Looking into Eve's still clear amber eyes, Nanoha Takamachi didn't know whether to sigh or breathe a sigh of relief: "Let's go, I'll take you to the base of Section Six."

Meanwhile, in the Main God Space.

[No abnormal mood swings]

"No abnormalities? That means it's not a lie."

Frowning, Lin Yi looked at the energy fluctuation frequency spectrum of Eve's answer just a moment ago, and suddenly remembered another incident from the past.

"...If I remember correctly, she had a similar logical problem during the Holy Grail War, right?"

[Correct Conclusion]

As a creation, it developed "desires" and emotions that the creator had not endowed it with. Before the conservation of intelligence, Lin Yi would naturally have erased them, but after the conservation of intelligence, he only suppressed them.

After observing Eve's perspective again, Lin Yi finally decided to postpone the execution.

----------segmentation----------

With the support of the "Big Three," Eve's joining the Mobile Section Six was much simpler than expected, especially after the qualification test, when rumors began to circulate about her being the "future Fourth Big Three" or "what kind of demon she is."

Faced with this situation, Nanoha Takamachi, who had heard Eve mention the title "White Devil," seemed a little embarrassed: "They were just joking. As for Eve... you have excellent potential!"

It was indeed very good. Although for safety reasons (not to be seen as an extreme individual), no SSS-level ear qualification was displayed during the qualification test, in order to improve his status and gain more power within the Time and Space Administration as soon as possible, Lin Yi still displayed the AAA-level qualification, which was also the qualification of Takamachi Nanoha herself, who was "from the same source".

With the support of the God Space, Lin Yi could forcibly create not only AAA, but even those beyond SSS level, talents that theoretically do not exist. After all, one is an accidental individual produced by limited resources under the overall civilization, while the other is a special individual created by the overall civilization. It is hard to say in terms of the total quantity, but in terms of the allocation of individual resources, the former is incomparable.

After officially joining the Mobile Section 6, Eve finally came into contact with the true nature of this organization, which was nominally searching for and protecting ancient heritage.

"Although we are undertaking exploration and protection work similar to ancient heritage, the real purpose is to prevent sudden major disasters."

Following Lin Yi's instructions, Eve expressed her doubts: "A major disaster?"

"That's right. If the goal is simply to protect the ancient heritage, the configuration of the Mobile Section 6 is obviously a bit overkill. But if it's to prevent major disasters, then it's understandable... Even if it happened on Earth, there were many mages who received Asura's plea for help, but in the end only the Mobile Section 6 was able to enter Earth before the transfer failed (space blockade), which is also because of its well-organized structure."

"If Section 6 hadn't arrived just in time, the disaster might have escalated several times over... I'm sorry we couldn't save your family."

Towards the end, his tone turned to guilt.

Eve had no reason to be sad for those "relatives" who didn't exist; for her, there was only one person she needed.

"Anyway, let's go back to the base for now. Once your personal magical device is finished, you'll be able to undergo simulation training. I look forward to taking care of you from now on, Eve-chan~"

Reasonably silencing the last syllable, the girl hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and grasped the other's hand at Lin Yi's instruction: "...Teach me."

Just as things were getting on track with Eve, Lin Yize in the Main God Space encountered another problem.

The right hand, rebuilt based on the ancient Belka style, looks no different from the previous "Spark". This part of the gene was fixed when he was first infected with the Kabane virus and entered the forbidden zone of life. Although he has the power to correct it after the soul leap, firstly, he has already gotten used to it, and secondly, this method of use is indeed effective, so Lin Yi lets it be.

However, the problem lies elsewhere.

"Lack of a core."

Whether it's the ancient Belka or Midcherda, all magical devices originating from the Time and Space Administration's mage system share similar commonalities. The core of these devices is a unit equipped with intelligence and various magical programs. Generally speaking, the better the unit's conductivity and the more abundant its magical power, the more powerful the magical device's performance. Just like Nanoha Takamachi's Rising Sun Heart, it not only has the function of automatically deploying numerous magic circles, but it can even use its own magical power for defense in emergencies.

However, this core substance is precisely what Lin Yi lacks.

"Although they are both called magic, they are ultimately different things."

Having abandoned his plan to replace the core with the "Holy Grail," Lin Yi had no choice but to turn his attention to the Midzilda world, which had just been targeted by the main god. Unsurprisingly, there should be the most suitable material there to become the core of a magical artifact.

"The Seed of the Sacred Stone".

Time and Space Administration: Chapter 454 Consumables

Midzhilda.

On the street, in a corner where no one was paying attention, a figure suddenly appeared, and just before being seen from behind, moved to the other side, perfectly blending into the environment.
