The gray smoke curled away, and the slanting sunlight reflected the mess on the ground. The light sprinkled red and yellow colors on everything, but the diffuse smoke made them look gray and desolate.
The noisy whistles of the city guards had already sounded in the distance, dispersing the loud or low noises. However, when these guys who followed the "two hourglass scales to arrive at the scene" arrived, except for a few entangled bodies in front of them,
Probably no human beings will be found in the corpse. Or, only a few guys who like to make money from dead people will find something strange when searching the corpse - but it is just a few curses in a low voice, and for the
To others, it's just an unfortunate routine...
Apart from the idle men in the tavern, how many people would be interested in small-scale conflicts between a group of adventurers? After all, this is too common for everyone - fights between civilians, gangsters
Assassinations and things like this happen every day. Human life is so despised in this world and in this era.
A layer of civilized silk clothing is still far from being able to restrain the ferocious monster known as the law of the jungle.
"In this world, only strength is everything. The strong survive, and the weak...will only die in the end."
"Powerful fists and feet, flexible wrists... I have to say that your strength is indeed good. Among humans of your age, this is already something to be proud of... But all of this can only be achieved by a qualified mind.
In front of a warlock, everything is just a clumsy dance, eclipsed by a single thought... Psychic abilities will grow in the cultivation of your own spiritual abilities through long-term strict self-examination and mental training. As long as you can overcome the inner demons and
Get rid of the distracting thoughts in your mind, and you can awaken the power hidden in the gray matter of your brain - the great power. Rather than these simple, barbaric, unreliable and powerful abilities."
There always seems to be a certain sense of sarcasm and contempt in the voice of the Spirit Crystal Servant - although logically speaking, he is just a familiar existence of Edward, but if you listen to his words, I am afraid that the relationship between the two is not the same.
It's more like the other way around... In addition, there is an additional layer of relationship between master and apprentice.
However, Edward did not refute its statement - although there were many reasons to refute it, he did not want to pay attention to those boring details at this moment. The light of the setting sun penetrated into the shadow of his hood, illuminating the smile that curled up from the corner of his mouth.
A hint of smile. That warm feeling made the young man's steps become a little brisker.
The power of psychic powers is indeed very powerful.
With one against six, it is not that the hunter has never done it before. After all, becoming the leader of Baiyang Town's private army requires more than some small tricks - but the opponents at that time were just peasant soldiers from the countryside, with crude martial arts and poor abilities.
Humble... If you are facing heavily armed adventurers, being able to fight one against three is considered an extraordinary performance. The rare opportunities can only be brought by You Dou, not such a head-on confrontation. Let alone
It was said that he was still being aimed at by a crossbow and was in a state of being on the verge of firing.
And such an easy, clean victory.
If you get more psychic powers and fuse them to create a fighting method that suits you, how powerful will you be? Can you compare with the lucky ones described in the epics? My thoughts can't help but
When drifting like this, the originally tired spirit also became excited because of it, and the interruption of the spiritual crystal servant seemed particularly harsh - especially the sharp and realistic question in this guy's next words:
"There are two secrets that can make life great. One of them is to show strong hunger in the face of unknown knowledge and skills. At this point, at least you have not taken a detour. But...how are you going to take this step?
Road?"
"What do you mean?" Edward, who was immersed in a beautiful dream, was stunned. Then a harsh roar suddenly sounded in his heart: "I mean, how are you going to get the power of your imagination! You idiot, you are so stupid!"
"you do not know?"
Although he was freed from his beautiful fantasy, Edward could not help but be startled again.
Immediately, the psychic, who had just gained strength for a long time, frowned.
How do psions grow in power?
Or maybe it was because this damn arrogant and chatty stone had always been so strong that he completely ignored this issue. But if he wanted to gain power, this was the most direct reality that he absolutely could not ignore.
Even with the addition of magical elements, this is still a real world. There is no shortcut to the growth of any power - even the children of the legendary gods must gradually learn how to control their own power, and for mortals,
It is said that strong support is to exercise step by step, learn bit by bit, walk slowly, climb to the peak, and finally touch the unreachable cloud.
But if the psicrystal servant does not know how to obtain power from a psion, how can he continue to move forward on this path?
"To be precise, this crystal does not know the training methods of human psychics. After all, the existence of this race that can awaken as psychics is really pitiful." The spiritual crystal servant snorted: "For the illithid.
, the strength of the psychic power is closely related to the main brain of the illithid. Their spirits and the main brain are linked to each other. Each illithid brain is an extended part of the main brain, and it studies and collects various knowledge for the main brain. Every time when
When they acquire new knowledge, they will automatically transmit it to the master brain through the mind for backup. When their mental power reaches a certain level, the master brain will automatically transmit more knowledge and new spiritual power to them, making them more powerful.
."
"It's a pity that as a human, you don't have such special preferential treatment. Therefore, you will not get psychic knowledge, and there are no ready-made psychic powers to learn." After a pause, he seemed to realize that the strength of the blow was a bit too great.
, the voice of the spiritual crystal servant softened: "Your spiritual power will gradually increase, and you may be able to reach the level of thirty or fifty spiritual power points. If this continues, you may not be able to spontaneously comprehend some spiritual powers, but
This method is too arbitrary and takes too long... Even if there are no useless psychic powers, there are only useless psychics, but after all, not every power can adapt to all environments. If you can choose
, after all, it’s better to choose.”
"How long does it take to develop slowly...?"
"If you try to figure it out on your own, it might take about forty years. Based on your current progress and what I know, you can probably shorten this time by half. In other words, you will be able to awaken in about twenty years.
One or two level 4 or 5 psychic powers. But I can't guarantee that you can find any practical skills. Although it is not completely unsolvable, you may find a psychic in the future, or get some fragments of knowledge. But
You must know that it is about the same as... well, the probability of a kind person appearing among the dark elves is about the same."
Fatigue seemed to flow back into his body in an instant, and Edward couldn't help but hold his forehead due to mental exhaustion.
Fifth-level psychic powers are roughly equivalent to fifth-level spells, and may be more powerful - but even if they are more powerful, they are still far away from Edward's ideal. Not to mention twenty to forty years?
Edward could not afford this price, but it was simply not worth it.
Could it be that he should go back underground to discuss with the source of this ability, those octopus-headed monsters... Or maybe it would be a good idea to capture one of them?
"I now realize that I am beginning to be interested in the structure of your brain. For God's sake, what kind of structure can make you think of these ridiculous ideas that are completely like a dream? Do you think illithids are like goblins or kobolds?
Same, you can see a group of people just by looking for a cave?"
The Spiritual Crystal Servant once again interrupted his master's thoughts. He stretched out a long, smooth leg from the hood of his cloak and tapped Edward's forehead heavily:
"Illithid cities are usually dozens or even hundreds of miles underground, beyond the reach of your clumsy brute force. And even if you can find them, so what? Do you think they will be interested in food?
Are you interested in the troubles? I think a piece of gray matter that can use psychic powers will probably arouse their interest more, right? Catch one of them? You don’t need to catch it if you have the ability, because in their city,
As long as you defeat an illithid, you have the right to come and go freely, but don't blame me for not reminding you, poor little fool. The only one who is qualified to stand on the duel stage is at least an adult monster who can manifest fifth-level powers."
"Or do you want to go back and negotiate with Katzeyek? I'm really looking forward to returning the property to its original owner. Oh, or, it may be merciful and leave me behind - to give it to a human being.
An illithid based on Edward Vincent?"
"Shut up!"
The horrific description made Edward tremble in his heart and couldn't help but roar - a few days ago, the horrific adventure underground had left an indelible mark in his heart. If there was anything else that would frighten him now,
Then those human flower pots... and the experience of almost being turned into experimental subjects are undoubtedly the only answer.
"Okay, okay... In that case, I won't say anything anymore. It's rare that I seem to have thought of some ways..."
"Did you know? Diamonds seem to be indestructible, but in fact they can be easily burned by concentrated sunlight. And when finer diamonds are polished and made into jewelry, they actually look more beautiful than larger ones...
"
"Okay, then you don't want to move forward on the path of psychic energy... Poor kid, do you think you can get any decent power with your current qualifications? The final result is nothing more than this.
A warrior finally lived a short life of humiliation and downfall at the hands of a nobleman, lamenting that he had made a choice even stupider than a goblin in his youth."
"At the very least, I can still learn magic...wait a minute, your so-called method is not the same as what I think, is it?"
"cut……"
The spiritual dialogue came to an end. Edward raised his head and sighed slightly - communication may be one of the best ways to increase wisdom. A casual mention is like a spark, but after it is ignited, the train of thought becomes
It will gradually ignite as a result.
