Chapter 26 Plan


Chapter 26 Plan

Seeing the properties of the Psychic Crystal Servant, Brian nodded with satisfaction.

As an extension of the Psion's personality fragment, it naturally makes it a very good auxiliary servant for him in combat or anywhere else where psychic powers are needed.

It can be said to be the most cost-effective existence among the 'demon pets' type.

Immediately afterwards, Brian thought about his profession as a psychic. When he upgraded his level just now, he had gained an additional expertise point.

So he immediately called up the attribute bar, used the expertise points directly, and without hesitation selected a universal psychic expertise that he had planned for a long time in the list of available expertise.

[Psychic Crystal Concentration (Universal Psychic Expertise): A psionic practitioner who has mastered this feat can transfer his or her own psionic concentration state to spirits within 5 feet of themselves when releasing psionic energy. The Crystal Servant takes the place of its master and enters a state of concentration that displays supernatural powers. 】

……

What does it mean to let the Psychic Crystal Servant enter the state of psychic concentration instead of yourself?

This means that if his spiritual crystal servant is always in a state of being uninterrupted, he can release his spiritual energy without any scruples, just like the mage who turned on the 'Qi Calming Shen Leisure' to amplify the fireball. A truth.

And his weakened version of 'Calm and Calm' can be maintained as long as the state of the spiritual crystal servant is not interrupted until his own spiritual energy points are exhausted.

This is the fundamental reason why Brian did not hesitate to choose this feat after making his own servant.

Unfortunately, as a psion of the creative system, he does not specialize in the offensive psychic powers of the 'transformation system'.

And judging from his current situation, he still lacks many psychic spells that need to be learned.

Psions are different from wizards.

They don't need a power book to display their psychic powers, nor do they need to prepare supernatural powers in advance, or use magic nets. As long as they have the supernatural powers they master, they can use them at will as long as they have enough psychic points. Just like the legendary ' Blue Stripe Mage' is as free and flexible.

There are three main ways for a psion to acquire psionic spells.

The simplest thing is that when your personal level increases, you will automatically obtain psychic spells based on your expertise and psychic talents.

Races such as the mind flayers, gem dragons, and Githyanki who are born with psionic properties mostly obtain their psionic powers in this way.

When Brian's Psion profession was upgraded to level 3, he gained the creation-specific "Psychic Repair Technique" used to repair astral constructs, as well as an additional offensive universal psychic ability. Can "shock wave".

The second way to acquire psionic spells is to master new powers through independent research or through reading and learning psionic knowledge.

This is the most commonly used method for most professional psychic practitioners. With sufficient psychic knowledge and time, it is easy to learn the powers you need.

The third method is the fastest and most difficult.

Mainly through contact with other psychic professionals, under the condition of mutual consent, one's own spiritual thoughts are invaded into the depths of the volunteer's mind, feeling the powers deep in the other person's mind, and quickly grasping the skills they have practiced psionic spells.

His first-level abilities are mastered through the third method.

Since the person who taught him his powers was a psychic who was proficient in the teleportation system, he also unexpectedly mastered a first-level teleportation psychic ability called "Astral Traveler" that was comparable to the wizard's nine-ring spell "Astral Projection".

This power allows him to instantly project his own spiritual will into the star realm.

Although there seem to be many methods, according to Brian's current situation, he has neither recorded knowledge to learn supernatural powers nor companions who can directly teach psychic spells.

This also means that in the Dark Territory, he can only rely on his few abilities for the time being.

Only when you return to the surface and find your companions can you make up for the missing abilities.

However, what makes him fortunate is that there are actually many masters of psychic spells like mind flayers and gray dwarves in the Underdark.

In the place where the mind flayers live, he may not dare to wander in because of fear of their strength.

But gray dwarf settlements are different. Underground gray dwarf cities generally open trade channels, allowing merchants of various races to come and trade goods.

If he is lucky, he can even get some unique psychic spells.

After determining his plan, Brian returned his attention to the Psychic Crystal Servant.

At this time, although this palm-sized astral construct has been declared complete and can be freely commanded by him, it will still take some time for the second personality to be fully activated.

In this case, he had no other choice but to wait patiently.

After all, it is very important for him to peel off the fragments of his personality and then regenerate a new personality from the spiritual crystal servant.

If it is the kind that has a very bad temper, or is irritable and irritable, he might as well smash it as soon as possible to avoid looking bad.

Looking at his spiritual crystal servant, Brian had a vague feeling that he had overlooked something, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

He frowned and considered it for a long time, until the personality of the spiritual crystal servant was about to be formed, then his eyes lit up, and he finally remembered that he still had one most important thing that he had not completed.

So he called up the attribute bar again and checked his own Psion panel.

Since his Psion profession is proficient in the mental creation system, he has an astral construct that specializes in this field.

This is something that psions in other fields simply cannot compare with.

At the same time, when he upgraded his level to level 2, he gained another professional feature "Call of the Creator".

In addition to increasing the duration of any of its own creative abilities by 30%, "Creator's Call" also gives each psicrystal servant and astral construct created by the psion an additional option to choose from. Special abilities.

Brian no longer thought about it and immediately called up the list of these special abilities: energy missiles, shock waves, space sliding, natural invisibility, and supernatural resistance.

Looking at the list, he did not make a choice immediately. Instead, he studied it carefully for a moment, and was the first to exclude the offensive characteristics "Energy Missile" and "Shock Wave", and then added the defensive characteristics "Super Resistance". ” were eliminated, and finally the focus was on the choices of “space sliding” and “natural invisibility”.

"Space Slide" is a short-distance 'flash' ability that can be used once every two minutes or so.

And "natural invisibility" is exactly what its name describes.

Makes the psicrystal invisible even when it attacks, and this ability is innate and unaffected by any spell that removes invisibility.

After considering the pros and cons, Brian finally chose the ability of "space sliding".

Because his positioning of the Psychic Crystal Servant is to assist him in displaying his psychic powers, the main purpose is to prevent it from receiving any harm or interference.

On the surface, it seems that "natural invisibility" has a stronger life-saving ability, but if you consider it from a long-term perspective, "space sliding" will be better.

After all, there are still many ways to see through invisibility, which may be of some use in the early stage. After he becomes stronger and the quality of the enemies he encounters gradually improves, this ability is basically equivalent to none.

Moreover, as a wizard and a psychic, he can also learn many spells and abilities such as invisibility, so there is no need to waste it on them.

So, Brian still thinks that "space sliding" is better.

This is the same as in a competitive game where everyone starts with a flash.

The moment this ability was given, he clearly felt that the spiritual crystal servant that originally seemed to give him a round and smooth feeling had an illusion of sharp edges and corners. A little less cute and a little more cool.

"Master."

At this moment, the spiritual crystal servant suspended in the air suddenly stopped the blue luster all over its body, and the voice that came out was as clear and crisp as two crystals gently colliding together.

Feeling the voice of the Spiritual Crystal Servant pass into his mind through his thoughts, he knew that its consciousness had been successfully activated.

Brian looked up at his masterpiece: it was an astral structure composed of a standing cat image and a dark blue crystal shell. The whole thing resembled a current astronaut and was full of futuristic technology.

In fact, if you replace the cat head with a panda head, it will be a familiar Bingdundun.

"From today on, you will be called 'Meow Dundun'." He gave it a random name perfunctorily.

"Meow Dundun?"

The spirit crystal servant rolled his bright black eyes in confusion, then humanely shook the cat's head covered in the crystal shell, and expressed dissatisfaction My own opinion: "This name doesn't sound good, can you change it to another one?"

"Then what name do you want?" Brian couldn't help laughing and asked curiously.

Looking at the interesting expression of the spiritual crystal servant, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he couldn't guess what kind of unique personality the other party had generated, it could be seen from its emotional words that the production was relatively successful.

“Alas, such a cute name does not suit my temperament at all. After all, my life wanders between two worlds, just like a star hanging in the sky when day and night alternate.”

With a melancholy sigh, a faint blue light suddenly flashed around the Spirit Crystal Servant, and slowly rotated around it. The crisp crystal sound began to become deeper, "The new is born, the old is destroyed"

"Stop! Just tell me what name you want." Brian frowned, realizing something was wrong, and quickly stopped it from continuing to speak, and looked at it thoughtfully.

Since the Spiritual Crystal Servant has inherited a small part of his personality, a part of his memory is naturally stored in his consciousness. It is not wrong to say that it is an extension of his own personality.

In other words, he could see part of himself in every move of the spiritual crystal servant.

This part of his character will eventually become exaggerated and distorted as his strength continues to improve.

Recalling the two scenes I saw in the fog when I stripped off my personality.

Brian vaguely guessed what kind of personality this little guy had inherited.

This made him feel happy but also gave him a little headache.

".Master, from now on you will call me an interstellar exile: Cat."

The spiritual crystal servant flashed the light on the surface of the crystal. After thinking for a moment, he blurted out and sighed melancholy.

“You see, our lives never stop day and night. The water of time rolls away, carrying life like bubbles far away.”

Brian can’t listen anymore, he has a headache. The ground waved to it, and a blue light flashed, taking it back into the astral space.

He already felt that this little guy was like a newborn with a complete memory.

Even the ability to organize language and communicate well is very poor. When speaking, it seems like just following the lines, which sounds very awkward.

If he has time, he still needs to guide the other party slowly.

Have I really been so pessimistic and world-weary before? Brian couldn't help but think suspiciously.

If it were in the past.

Whenever he thinks about his identity as a time traveler and the family he will never see again, he will inevitably feel sad secretly.

Now, I heard the spiritual crystal servant say such melancholy words in such a tone.

He was actually indifferent, had no reaction at all, and was even a little bored.

Brian slapped his forehead and forcibly eliminated the chaotic thoughts in his mind.

Then he took out a map of the Underdark from his dimensional bag and began to think about his future plans and destination.

His current location is the Silk Path. In this canyon filled with countless spider silks, there is a floating tomb that fell here during the Netheril era.

The most precious burial object inside, in addition to a piece of legendary quality magic equipment, is also a Nese scroll lost by the Arcane Empire.

This is exactly what he came here for.

Soon, he discovered on the map that as long as he successfully passed through the silk trail, he would reach the lightless woodland.

Then, after walking out of the lightless forest occupied by the xun people, which can also be called mushroom people, you can successfully reach the vicinity of the dark lake.

If you are lucky and encounter a merchant ship coming and going in the lake, you can directly reach a gray dwarf city.

If Brian's memory is correct, in this gray dwarf city located near the dark lake, there is not only an adult red dragon that works closely with the gray dwarves, but also a hidden tunnel leading to the surface.

In this case, he can make going to the gray dwarf city his goal of returning to the surface.

He carefully calculated the approximate time based on the founding festival of ancient Orens City that took place once a thousand years, and unexpectedly learned that at this time, the adult red dragon in the gray dwarf city seemed to be fighting with the senior gray dwarfs. If there is a conflict, the two sides will soon fight.

This incident will eventually lead to the entire city falling into infighting among the major factions.

It is said that the cause of the incident was that the senior executives of the gray dwarves lost the red dragon's egg.

He didn't know the specific details.

Because their player base came to the game world two years later.

The information about the red dragon is the general process that some players accidentally learned from the NPC's mouth when they were doing the plot.

Bryan thought that before heading to the surface, he could take this opportunity to fish in the troubled waters of the gray dwarf city and get some benefits.

After all, although the gray dwarves are a little gloomy in character, their forging skills are not inferior to their surface relatives at all.

If you can win over a group of gray dwarf allies and let them establish a trade route between the surface and the underground with you, it will be a way to make money.

Then he put away the map and began to prepare for exploring the tomb on Fansi Trail.
