Li Wen has been exposed to psychic powers many times.
The first paladins only had a superficial use of psychic powers. They could only use the burst of spiritual power to form an inspiring aura around them, or to enhance their own strength.
At this time, the use of psychic energy is relatively superficial and internal, and cannot be released to directly distort the rules of the real world.
By the time of the bard, the scope of psychic energy was even wider, and it could already directly affect others through spells. The existence of various characteristics was also some intuitive manifestations of psychic energy.
Until that time, Li Wen's understanding of psychic powers had been somewhat accomplished.
Later, several encounters with illithid monsters made Li Wen's understanding of psychic powers more profound.
Coupled with the outrageous attack on the illithid mastermind last time he was bewitched, Li Wen also directly obtained detailed information about the Gith Psychic Warrior profession.
This is the first profession that Li Wen has come into contact with that completely uses psychic powers to fight.
After a long period of accumulation, Li Wen had already thought about fully applying the special power of psychic energy to the mage system.
Since it is needed now, it would be a good idea to take advantage of this impulse and try to develop a new psionic mage system or even psionic spells.
Just do it.
"Wait a minute~"
Dark Poppy waved his hand at the other party, and then thought of something else - the smart Li Wen definitely didn't want to be watched by others throughout the creation process, so...
"Find me a quiet place and don't disturb me, understand?"
"Then the half day you mentioned before..."
Dark Bobby waved his hand.
"We'll figure it out after I get out."
Arriving at a room that according to the mastermind of the illithids was made of special materials, and which according to the mastermind could not even be penetrated by its psychic energy, Li Wen felt a familiar aura here - the Demonic Heart Mine.
Although they are afraid of this mineral, creatures like illithids are actually not much different from humans. They are also studying this magical mineral and trying to use it.
Li Wen's eyes were clear and calm after returning to normal.
It didn't really matter what the room looked like, and he didn't intend to devote himself entirely to research on the illithids' territory.
Isn't opening a door and sneaking into Croxane safer than anywhere else?
However...since it was the territory of the aboleth that was being attacked, Li Wen felt that it was not impossible to use some external forces.
Illithids alone may not be stable, but what if we add the power of players?
It's perfect to take advantage of the time when I plan to retreat for research and give the players time to come and gather.
Even if you don't come up with any research results by yourself, with the help of players, you will be more confident.
As soon as he thought of it, Li Wen directly sent a text message to "Ji Weibo".
"I have a mission for you, the home of the illithids, come quickly."
If he hadn't been expelled by the group of illithids last time when he encouraged him to punch the mastermind of the illithids, then this place should still be his exclusive treasure.
Sure enough, not long after the message was sent, Li Wen heard a knock on the door.
In a place where psychic energy cannot penetrate, other than this primitive method, there is no other way to meet anyone outside.
When he opened the door, he followed an illithid and smiled flatteringly at Li Wen.
"Is this the person you want to see?"
The illithids leading the way put their tentacles into their throats to act as vocal cords and tongues, making sounds that were almost indistinguishable from the Common Tongue of the Great Road.
He seems to be an outstanding Illithid No. 3 with both good character and academics.
"Yes, let him in."
"Follow your instructions sir."
The illithid who was speaking turned sideways to make room, which was enough to pass through the narrow narrow door.
"Lord Poppy."
It was so ridiculous that he had a smile on his face.
"I have a task for you."
Li Wen doesn't mince words.
It was outrageous and his eyes lit up,
"What mission?"
The players have been in contact with this world for a long time, and Li Wen wanted to see if they could bring any surprises to him.
"Those illithids and I plan to attack the nest of an evil creature. Those creatures are in the lower waters of the waterway near us. Before launching the actual attack, I want to see if you can dig up some information.
To facilitate our follow-up attack."
[Poppy is going to entrust you with an epic mission—exploring the aboleth lair! Do you accept? Please respond positively if you accept.]
"Accept it! You must accept it! Whoever is Mr. Poppy's enemy is my enemy! Don't worry, Sir, this task will be entrusted to me! But..."
As he said that, he looked at Li Wen's face carefully and said, "Sir, can you reveal a little more information about the aboleth? After all, our vision is limited and we don't know much about the creature you are talking about.
…”
As time goes by, not only the aborigines have a deeper understanding of the players, but the players' understanding of the aborigines is also deepening.
When faced with a task, they will also shamelessly ask for information to gain an advantage for themselves, depending on whether they are close to the target.
It's a pity that Li Wen himself is not familiar with it.
"For specific information, you can try to ask those illithid monsters. Okay, that's it. You go ahead. I have something else to do."
After sending the task, Li Wen dismissed him and left.
You are already mature players. Don't just reach out. If you want to know the truth, you have to find it yourself.
"Oh~"
…
After leaving Li Wen's room, his face was filled with excitement.
Master Bobby is here to take care of him again!
It's an epic mission, and the mission reward...it doesn't matter what the mission reward is, Master Bobby takes action, there's no way he's going to treat them badly.
Hmm... let's take a look.
Skill book blind box?
As expected.
Blind box update instructions?
Um?
Several new skill books have been added to the blind box. The probability of the first batch of new skill books in the blind box may be doubled?
Yossi!
This Poppy... always gives people a little surprise.
Go do the mission!
Hot forum post - "Produced by Poppy! Underground water reclamation, come quickly!"
——The target is a group of fish monsters living deep in underground rivers. According to the current information, it is good at psychic powers. The environment of the lair tends to be a half-real and half-imaginary fantasy space. It requires special strengths in underwater combat, psychic protection, etc.
The task can be shared, which means that the difficulty of this task is definitely not something that individual players can complete. Poppy has always been very measured and considerate about this kind of difficulty.
Since aboleths live in underground waters, you will definitely need to find some people who are better at this to complete the task together.
As for himself, he is responsible for extracting more information about the aboleth from the illithids' mouths. After all, this is also his personal advantage.
Teamwork requires a division of labor.
It’s outrageous and I made it clear in my mind.
And one by one, he began to screen whether the content of the forum replies was true and what he needed.
"Energy-shaping big bomb, there is no dungeon that cannot be penetrated, only insufficient firepower! Mission dd!"
Blast? The most indispensable thing in this game is bomb, pass.
"The sweet voice is 36D. If my brother takes me, I will shout 6."
36D? A little excited, but women will only be a stumbling block for me to complete the task, pass!
"Master of illusion, no one knows illusion better than me!"
Mark, maybe I'll team up with him later.
"I have a submarine and I rub it with my own hands."
The sub-comments under this comment exploded.
"Holy shit! I'm such a god, I'm rubbing my submarine with my hands."
"I just said that there are many talents in this game and they speak well."
"Where did you get the drawings? Did you design them yourself?"
"Awesome!"
"Awesome!"
It was so outrageous that I couldn't help myself, so I replied - "Awesome!"
Chat with him privately and find out what kind of submarine he has.
"Brother, do you have any pictures?"
The other party didn't say much and just sent a picture.
The dark red wooden texture is the first thing that catches the eye. The whole thing is like an oval wooden barrel with round waves at both ends.
It looks... a bit brittle?
"Is it reliable?"
"Come and try?"
"middle."
In the game, after some in-depth explanations, he slapped the bulkhead of the submarine and said, "The texture is okay, but the general underwater exploration is okay. Isn't the combat a bit lacking?"
The other person was a tall, burly man with a dark face, "I can only make it out of the best iron wood I can find. I can't make it out of steel, and I don't have the money."
"no……"
He pinched his chin outrageously, "In what age are you still relying on the strength of the material itself? A magic circle! A magic circle!"
The man's face is darker.
"I am not a spellcaster..."
"Then don't you know how to find someone to enchant you?"
"No money..."
He waved his hand outrageously.
"It's okay, I'll come find you."
Hot post update: The submarine is in place, here comes the formation enchantment master, the materials are brought with you.
So, while Li Wen was concentrating on studying the mage's psychic system, a submarine team headed towards the deep bottom waters of the underground river.
…
The mysterious spiritual energy gathered into one concrete symbol after another in Li Wen's mind, and those innate powers that were supposed to be instinctive turned into a system that any mage could understand with his own knowledge.
The soul energy stock of up to 8 million also gave Li Wen the unbridled capital. Using the warrior sub-class of Psychic Warrior as a template, Li Wen tried to apply the power of psychic energy to the mage.
Time passes slowly, and there is no distinction between day and night in Croxanne's space.
The gray mist gently surrounded Li Wen, and he felt the strange fluctuations in his mind. Even Croxanne felt a little curious.
The power of the mind distorts reality, forming various wonderful scenes around Li Wen.
Those gorgeous pictures came from Li Wen's mind, and those steel and concrete forests were a fantasy that Croxanne had never seen before.
Li Wen did not directly set his goal on the professional system. He could not become a big fat man with one bite.
Before forming a system, Li Wen wanted to apply the power of psychic energy to spells.
Fortunately, Li Wen's long familiarity with psychic powers made this step incredibly easy.
However, using about 300,000 soul energy, Li Wen developed three unique psychic spells based on the existing spell system -
Level 0 Spell - Wedge of Mind (Psychic): You drive a wedge of confusion fashioned from psychic energy into the mind of a creature visible within range. The target must succeed on a magic saving throw or suffer 2 to 3 Psychic points.
hurt, and for the first time after
The difficulty of the saving throw increases by 1~3 points, lasting 6 seconds. When you reach level 5, 11, and 17, the number of damage will be increased by one. (Release time: 0.5 seconds. Cooling time: 6 seconds. Duration: 6 seconds.
.Casting range: 60 feet.)
2nd Level Spell—Mind Stab (psionic): You thrust a lance of disruptive psychic energy into the mind of a creature visible within range. The target must succeed on a magic saving throw or suffer three 2
~3 points of psychic damage, and it will fall into the "sluggish" state for 6 seconds. In addition, it will acquire the "slowed action" state when it acts, lasting for 6 seconds. If the save is successful, the target will suffer damage
Halved, and not affected by other spells.
Level-up spell casting effect: When you use a spell slot of level 3 or higher to cast a spell, for every spell slot you use that is 1 level higher than level 2, you can select an additional creature as the target. And the distance between all targets must not be greater than 30
Fourth-Level Spell—Fortress of Intelligence (psionic): For the duration of the spell, you or a visible creature within casting range gain substantial resistance to psychic damage and advantage on Magic, Wisdom, and Charisma saving throws.
Level-up spell casting effect: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of level 5 or higher, you can choose one more creature as the target for each spell slot you use that is higher than level 4. The distance between all target creatures cannot be greater than 30
Feet. (Release time: 1 second. Cooling time: 1 minute. Duration: up to 1 hour, requires concentration. Casting distance: 30 feet.)
Level 0 and level 2 spells are both damage-type spells. Of course, while causing damage, they also have the characteristic that psychic spells can have a certain impact on the enemy's mind.
It has the dual characteristics of damage and function.
As for the fourth-ring spell, it purely uses the power of psychic energy to increase protection for oneself or the minds of allies. It is a spell that uses psychic energy to specifically restrain psychic energy.
At this point, a single faction of psychic system spells, a new genre independent of the original eight major spell factions, was born.
Of course, Li Wen's research does not end here.
Several spells from the new sect are just a way to introduce the new mage sub-class. Pure spells, even those with extraordinary talents - such as Helen, a powerful mage who has studied psychic powers in his own right - can learn them without the help of the sect.
Used, but only by a few individuals.
If there is no corresponding academic school to carry it forward, it will soon be forgotten by everyone due to the threshold, difficulty, etc.
This is inheritance.
Merely creating something is useless, being able to pass it on is the real innovation.
