Chapter 24 Spirit Crystal Servant


Chapter 24 Spirit Crystal Servants

In the group of casters.

The most typical wizards and warlocks usually have their own familiars, which serve as assistants or scouts. Psionics also have similar partners.

It’s just that it is not a magical beast, but an ultra-small astral construct created from materials that are compatible with psychic energy such as astral crystals, natural deep crystals or magic crystals, which is the so-called 'Psychic Crystal Servants'.

For Brian, who lost his magic pet, he naturally would not miss the opportunity to make a spiritual crystal servant.

Moreover, in the field of psychic energy, only psychics who are proficient in the creative department can maximize the value of spiritual crystal servants.

He did not waste any more time. After first checking the illusion and warning arrays he had arranged at the entrance of the cave, he immediately began to concentrate on making his own spiritual crystal servants.

With the control of his thoughts, the ectoplasm crystal in Brian's hand was wrapped in energy and tremblingly suspended in mid-air.

In an instant, this shimmering dark blue crystal gradually melted into a pulsating dark blue liquid at a speed visible to the naked eye under the influence of spiritual power.

Ectoplasm crystals are usually shaped from the original ectoplasm ingested by psions in the astral world. They are a type of ectoplasm material that is extracted into the material world.

However, with the emergence and mining of natural deep crystals and magic crystals in the material world, few psychic professionals have spent their energy to extract ectoplasmic materials.

Because this kind of deep crystal in the material world can also be converted into the ectoplasm material you need to make psychic equipment or constructs.

The most important thing is that the entire transformation process also consumes its own energy.

After all, energy is an extremely important attribute for any spell caster. The most fundamental manifestation of excessive energy consumption is aging.

So, few people make fun of their own vitality.

However, this is not a big problem for Brian.

A psion like him who is short of money and cannot afford to buy deep crystals can completely consume his own experience points to extract astral crystals from the star world, saving him a lot of extra expenses. .

Of course, having said that, when he started to extract ectoplasm energy, the moment he saw the rapidly consuming experience points, he instantly experienced what physical pain was, and his heart almost sank to the bottom of the valley. .

So much so that he directly canceled the idea of ​​making an astral construct, and could only make his own spiritual crystal servant for the time being.

Because just a fist-sized astral crystal cost him more than 3,000 experience points. Not to mention the experience and time required to make an astral construct, based on his current The situation is really unimaginable.

After all, his first goal now is to upgrade the level of battle mage and psychic as soon as possible.

As your level increases and your strength becomes stronger, the speed of gaining experience points will naturally increase. Naturally, you cannot make such a choice to sacrifice the near and far.

The plan to make an astral construct can only be considered after returning to the surface, or when there is a chance to obtain a large amount of natural deep crystals in the underdark.

Brian saw that the ectoplasmic energy had completely melted into a liquid state. He immediately mobilized his psychic power and began to imagine a blueprint of the psicrystal servant in his mind, shaping it perfectly.

This is the characteristic of creative psions when making constructs.

They don't have to go through the tedious processes of processing, carving, assembly, etc. like wizards do when making golems.

For a psion who is proficient in the creative department.

Astral crystals are the raw material for their creation, and his consciousness is the mold, forge and lathe. Driven by his own thoughts alone, he can create a flawless astral construct.

Of course, they also have very significant disadvantages.

That is a construct made by a psion. It is impossible to build your own golem factory and turn it into a streamlined mass production like a wizard's golem.

Because of this, the powerful single combat capability of the astral construct is highlighted.

Generally speaking.

A psion who is proficient in the creation department can only control three or four astral constructs at most.

Mainly because each astral construct is equivalent to their own thought, which in easy-to-understand terms is: incarnation.

Arcanists who master higher creations and magical creations are just the opposite. If resources are sufficient, they can even command a large army of golems.

In general, both have their own advantages.

For Brian, who is proficient in both, it is equivalent to completely making up for his own shortcomings.

This is also the fundamental reason why he is obsessed with advanced arcanist.

Among the group of spellcasters, compared with most advanced professions, arcanists are not among the group with the strongest combat effectiveness.

Because this profession is not designed to be fought alone, their real horror lies in the speed at which they can advance in technology.

Often when a battle begins, they will directly ride the floating city docked in the demiplane into the enemy's face, then tear open the portal, release the army of constructed golems, and bulldoze it, ending perfectly. .

The enemy can't even see the exhaust from the floating city.

This is the correct way to open a fully developed Grand Arcanist.

However, the fact is that Brian has never seen or heard of the great arcanists' flat-out fighting method.

This is entirely a figment of his imagination based on the modern weapons facilities he has seen, as well as the direction of his future efforts.

After all, the saying 'imagine boldly, verify carefully', in his opinion, has always been the most correct strategy and development direction in the field of arcane innovation.

Furthermore, he believed that if he could really obtain the introduction to arcana, magic creation, advanced creation and plane mechanism recorded in the Nese scrolls, which were not fully understood during the arcane empire, and the knowledge of Imma The mechanical civilization in the Seven Mysteries of Ska will then solve the subsequent energy problem.

This ‘bold idea’ is actually not completely impossible.

It’s just that the accumulation process is more difficult, and it is very possible that arcane arts will be difficult to advance due to some completely lost and fragmented knowledge.

He stopped thinking randomly and immediately concentrated on the work at hand.

For Brian, shaping the ectoplasmic energy is not as difficult as imagined.

It won’t take a while.

A blueprint that had been designed in his mind came to life before his eyes.

The appearance of this palm-sized spiritual crystal servant is a combination of a standing cat image and a dark blue crystal shell. The whole thing resembles a current astronaut and is full of futuristic technology.

Looking at the cute spiritual crystal servant, he nodded with satisfaction.

Immediately took out two rice-sized black crystals from the dimensional bag, used telekinesis ability, carefully manipulated them, and embedded them into the two empty eyes of the spiritual crystal servant, acting as two flashlights. Bright black pupils.

This is the Shining Diamond, crystal clear, like a diamond in crystal.

Its main function is to increase the concentration speed of the spiritual crystal servant, and it also has a certain resistance to negative energy.

He shamelessly asked Santila to collect these two expensive diamonds for him.

In fact, he just had the attitude of giving it a try and casually added this material to the list of spellcasting materials he needed.

He thought that the other party would be deterred by the price when collecting these materials. What he didn't expect was that this drow girl actually existed and got it for him generously, making him feel a little bit uncomfortable. Sorry.

Otherwise, his plan to make spiritual crystal servants would be delayed indefinitely due to insufficient materials.

With the inlay of two sparkling diamonds, this palm-sized spiritual crystal servant suddenly flashed a pair of bright black pupils under the soft light, making it look vivid.

But Brian knew very well that the entire production process was far from over, because there was still one most critical step waiting for him to complete.

Next, he needs to give the spiritual crystal servant a fragment of his own personality, so that he can develop a sense of autonomy that is loyal to his master.

Only when this step is completed can the tiny astral construct of the 'Spiritual Crystal Servant' be truly produced.
