Chapter 207 Thought Seal! Mind Flayer Rebellion!
Talent attributes are not static.
In the era of the Son of Slaughter, there have been many rare items that can permanently increase basic attributes, and if you finish reading the legendary Nether Scroll, you can also permanently improve your intelligence and knowledge. Strictly speaking, "Book of Eternal Chase" does not increase your attribute upper limit, but only converts your perception attributes into intelligence attributes. Reading those forbidden knowledge will hurt your spiritual will, but you don't need to care so much in the weird country. , it is enough to permanently improve the intelligence attribute.
“If I’m not wrong, a copy of the Holy Book of Eternal Chase can be copied, and it also has strange powers.”
To improve intelligence at the expense of perception, then This means that Xiao En can train a large number of spell casters. It is difficult to find a genius with 18 points of basic intelligence in the real world, but it is not difficult to find a human with 14-16 points of intelligence. They only need to read "The Holy Book of Eternal Chase" 》, has the potential to be promoted to Arcanist.
The promotion path of an arcanist requires very high basic intelligence. Without such a strong understanding ability, there is no way to advance.
According to Xiao En's calculation, the arcanist needs at least 16 points of intelligence, and of course 18 points of intelligence is better.
He currently cannot find many geniuses with 18 points of intelligence, but it is not difficult to find a group of outstanding talents with about 16 points of intelligence, and among the lost star citizens of the Garden Planet, 14 points of intelligence A lot of the above people just have some personality defects. Xiao En is good at the ability of spiritual path, so it is not difficult to modify their personality defects. (PS: In the real world, ordinary people who have received university education generally have an intelligence of around 14 points. People who have received a normal modern education basically have an intelligence of 12 points or more.)
"This means that the weird country will Hundreds of thousands of mages were born!”
When Xiao En started, he thought that there might be many highly intelligent humans on the Garden Planet, but he did not expect that the number would be larger than he expected.
"The safety of these lost star citizens must be guaranteed."
A cold glimmer appeared in Xiao En's eyes, and he decided to take a slightly risky action.
——Assimilation (9th ring psychic energy)!
In an instant.
The moment Xiao En's fingers turned into obsidian luster and came into contact with the mind-stealing magician in front of him, the other person's body began to melt. It was completely swallowed by Xiao En, and all the flesh and blood merged into Xiao En. in his body, and gave him an additional blessing of +4 on all attributes.
After completely assimilating the opponent's body, Xiao En immediately transformed into a mind flayer, looking almost exactly like his target.
After the assimilation spell digests the target, Xiao En's disguise judgment will be extra +10, which is almost like replacing the opponent's identity. Moreover, he can read the enemy's thoughts and memories, tamper with the enemy's memory and cognition, and can do to the identity of the perfect replacement target.
This was the first time Pandora saw a human being 'eating' the Mind Flayer. Her eyes shone with a glimmer of light, and she seemed to be very interested in this power.
The Lost Star People have a certain degree of darkness within them. Just like the Githyanki, creatures who have been enslaved by the mind flayers will have a certain degree of mental distortion. Her hatred for the mind flayers is just She doesn't show it, but when she gains power, the repressed nature of these Lost Stars erupts like the Githyanki do. (PS: After the dwarves were enslaved, they twisted into gray dwarves.)
"Teacher."
"I discovered more than 100,000 lost humans with spellcasting potential on the Garden Planet." Xiao En further increased his chips and persuaded the aboriginal forces in the weird country.
A moment later.
Ms. Hecate said with a solemn voice: "I understand. Don't act rashly, I will go there myself."
With so many potential spellcasters, even Ms. Hecate Can't sit idly by.
Xiao En shook his head slightly and said: "Teacher, I have a plan."
Xiao En has never relied too much on the ability of the Thought Seal, because he does not want to forcibly distort the will of ordinary people. At most, it is a specific target, such as the monster doctor, who will be planted with the Thought Seal, and now in the garden He has no such concerns about the planet. The will of Suen's mind flayers has already been distorted by the past. Xiao En's planting of thought steel seals is nothing more than giving them another master to follow.
Due to the special nature of the spiritual path, Xiao En will almost certainly face Su En in the future, even if it means dismantling a fleet of mind flayers controlled by him before he returns to the distant country.
“Lead the way!”
Xiao En controlled the will of others, and he got mixed up with the mind flayers, walking out of the manor along the 12 skull farms, towards a strange place The mind flayer complex flew away.
The Sunn Mind Flayer Fleet on the Garden Planet originated from the Mind Flayer Empire Expeditionary Force at the end of the Age of the Ancient Gods.
This involves some legends from ancient times. Even Xiao En is not very clear about it and only knows the general situation. It is said that the ancient mind flayers traveled from the distant future to the past, and then brought a huge interstellar fleet. The ancient sages of Faerûn also recorded the mind flayers' fleet, densely packed warships in the darkness. It spread all over the sky and conquered many planets and worlds.
The Gith were enslaved at that time.
The Mind Flayer Empire controlled many worlds at its peak. After completely enslaving the Gith, they sent out an expeditionary force. A huge fleet roamed along the star plane until time and At the end of space, the expeditionary force finally lost contact completely.
They encountered Suen.
The entire Mind Flayer Expedition Fleet was corrupted, and the huge fleet became Thrun's slave, and was stationed in the distant kingdom.
Suen's fleet of mind flayers arrived in the Dark Age, probably more than a thousand years ago. They arrived in the Terra galaxy together with Suen. Suen was the superior old man of an unknown galaxy, and was corroded and corrupted. Behind his native galaxy, this powerful Old One became aware of the power of Holy Terra and led a fleet of enslaved mind flayers into the Weird Realm.
At that time, the Fallen Mother Goddess had arrived, and the entire Garden Planet had fallen.
So the Suen Mind Flayer took a ready advantage, directly occupied the Garden Planet, and turned the twelve moons into its own space stronghold.
Unknown people once tried to take back this planet.
However, because there are too many old days entrenched in the Weird Kingdom, even if they conquer the Garden Planet, they cannot hold it. At that time, the total human population was only more than 20 million, and in the end they could only Retreat to the real kingdom protected by the twelve realms of clock nirvana.
Even today, Xiao En and others are unable to completely recover the Garden Planet. The most they can do is establish a space colony.
Soon.
A strange dome-shaped building appeared in front of it. More than half of its space was underground. There were a large number of garrisoned Mind Flayer troops around it, and patrolling 'Suen soldiers' could also be seen. This is an alchemical creature created using essence, using the twisted law of life, and is an 'alchemical creation' that is directly hatched.
It can be understood this way.
The mind flayer's alchemical construction army of Suen contains an incubating mother body, which is like a disgusting mucus polymer, and then directly synthesizes and gives birth to offspring in the process of excretion and vomiting. ', these offspring are alchemical constructs.
The robot gave birth to a bunch of robots using the same delivery method as flesh-and-blood creatures.
——Suen’s Fanatic [Large Construct] (Challenge Level 10+)? !
This giant slug-like creature has a mane made of jars, each containing a glowing green liquid, and the front of its body appears to be entirely a mouth, a large, spitting mouth. Mouth. When the Mind Flayer team arrived, it was undergoing a 'birth'-like process, rapidly creating structures within its body, and then spitting out a construct creature in a corrosive sphere.
Thun's Zealot, if he has enough Essence, can safely use his spawning ability twice a day to directly produce - Thun's Storm Cloud (Challenge Level 5), Thun's War Sickle (Challenge Level 6).
Thun's War Scythe is a silver robot with four arms, perfectly constructed to wield the two evil-looking scythes it carries to attack its enemies.
——Suen’s crazy craftsman [Alchemist] (challenge level 10+)!
A large number of Mind Flayer alchemists can be seen throughout the huge Mind Flayer base. After being corrupted by Suen, they have mastered very cutting-edge alchemy technology. The entire expedition fleet is equipped with a number of The huge alchemical structure has the same function as the mage's golem army. Its combat effectiveness is slightly worse, but it is large in number and relatively cheap to build.
——Soldiers of Suen (Challenge Level 8)!
——Suen’s flesh puppet (challenge level 13)! (Similar to the flesh golem.)
Thousands of constructed life forms guard the lair of the Elder Brain, and moving along the flesh carpet-like building, soon a building like a brain pool appeared in front of my eyes.
The genetic technology of the Suen mind flayers is different from that of regular mind flayers in that they have a very large number of elder brains.
Normal mind flayers generally have only one powerful mastermind, but Suen's mind flayer fleet usually has one elder brain per warship. They can synthesize new elder brains from the brains of other mind flayers through special blood rituals.
——Disciples of Suan (Challenge Level 10).
Xiao En saw strange mind flayers wearing heavy armor, with chains wrapped around their bodies, and holding flails and other weapons. They were stronger than other mind flayers. These were Suen's priests. Their equipment Very eye-catching, with +1 heavy armor, +1 heavy flail, and the emblem of Suen on his body. He is usually guarded near the lair of the Elder Brain.
These enemies can cast divine spells and possess spiritual energy, and a small number of them will be promoted to become 'spiritual masters', which are spellcasters with both divine spells and psionic abilities.
——Elder Suen’s Brain [Large Abnormality] (Challenge Level 15-25)? !
After passing through a dark passage, Xiao En smelled a disgusting fishy smell. Outside the lair were two powerful brain demon statues, and passed through dozens of hatching pods. Behind the secret room is the brain pool hall where the elder brain is located.
I don’t know how many elder brains there are on the entire Garden Planet. They act as the spiritual leaders of the mind flayer tribe, and they can download the inherited knowledge of the mind flayers through the elder brains.
They resemble a biological computer.
In the process of promotion, the mind flayers copy the promoted expertise, knowledge, spells, etc. from them. After the download is completed, they can go back and practice slowly.
Above the cerebral cistern.
A purple spherical mass floating in the air looks like a huge brain dragging tentacles. Its body exudes extremely strong spiritual energy fluctuations. This is obviously an elder brain that has been transformed for a long time. It has exceeded the most basic challenge level 15, and has psychic power close to that of a normal mastermind.
Dead mind flayers will give their brains to the elder brains, which will continue to improve their biological levels after devouring them.
Suen's corrupted genes replaced quality with quantity. The elder brains were distributed in various communities of the mind flayers, firmly controlling everything in the expedition fleet. The new variety they have cultivated in the past few hundred years is the shadow mind flayer. In addition, there are other alien mind flayer varieties.
After the corruption of the race in the past, even the mind flayers have become hated by their own race. Normal mind flayers in the Weird Kingdom will basically fight to death as long as they see the Suen mind flayers.
They are blasphemers, heretics, heretics with no loyalty to the Overmind.
"Suen...Suen..."
Unlike other master brains, when there is nothing going on, the elder brain will murmur and repeat the words Suen. Character.
If Suen's mind flayer's fleet goes on an expedition, the Elder Brain will enter the saltwater pool in the central cabin and serve as a special psychic center to control the entire star battleship, providing assistance to the mind flayer's helmsman and directing the fleet's operations. fighting.
"Alert! Alert!"
"The law fluctuations of [Confusion Field] were detected."
After entering the brain pool of Elder Su En's brain, the genes in Xiao En's body began to move , which is the power derived from Suen's brain.
The data in Elder Suen's brain was instantly interpreted, because Suen's brain recorded their abilities.
——Double Attack [Innate Ability]: Elder Suen’s brain is a creature composed of multiple strands of consciousness, all of which have touched unreal things in distant lands. Therefore, they can carry out two attacks at the same time. The higher will body is the round of mental activities, and the lower body is the round of physical activities. This means that the Sunn Elder Brain can do more attacking actions in one round than most creatures.
——Confusion Domain [Field Law]: Elder Suen's brain can disrupt the thoughts of the creatures around it. This ability is similar to the spell "Confusion". All creatures with a radius of 30 meters around Elder Suen's brain will be affected.
Part of Xiao En’s abilities are almost exactly the same as Elder Su En’s brain.
"Who are you?!" For a moment, the whisper in Elder Su En's head rang out.
Similar source of power.
Both creatures have extraordinary essences derived from Su En, but the Elder Brain is a gift from Su En, while Xiao En is derived from plunder and theft.
——Confusion Domain [Field Law]!
Xiao En opened the confusion field in an instant. His law ability was obviously far beyond that of the elder brain in front of him. The moment the confusion field spread, the other party entered a strange state of confusion.
The suppressive effect of the superior!
Xiao En did not expect that one day he would be able to experience the domain suppression of the superior. He instantly deprived the other party of the [Confusion Domain] and put his mind into a state of confusion, and then the extremely powerful will began. Erode the opponent's mind.
“Invading the other person’s mind!”
"Implant [Thought Imprint]!"
The salt water in the entire brain pool surged, and there were unhatched mind flayer tadpoles in it. They died instantly and were crushed in the trembling waves of the mind. . Although no apparent battle broke out, the powerful spiritual energy fluctuations distorted the surrounding space, showing a gorgeous nebula-like brilliance.
This is a competition between will and spiritual power!
Xiao En wanted to control the thoughts of the elder's brain. His mind invaded the other party's body, constantly adding layer after layer of thought imprints until it finally formed an unbreakable [thought stamp].
The difficulty of mind control this time is far greater than in the past, because the Elder Brain is a legendary creature and its will to resist is very strong.
I don’t know how long it took.
Xiao En's will finally penetrated Elder Brain's spiritual defense. After planting his own mark, Elder Brain whispered: "Praise Su En!"
"Praise the great favored one!..."
The loophole in its mind has appeared. It regards Xiao En as Su En's favored one and obeys his orders deep in its heart.
Xiao En's whisper sounded: "The mastermind betrayed the great Su En!"
"Calling the mind flayers of the Ninth Fleet!"
A terrifying psychic wave erupted.
Xiao En’s tampered memory was implanted into the elder brain’s consciousness, and it possessed a ‘false’ memory.
Next second.
The entire Suen mind flayers belonging to the Ninth Fleet received orders from the Elder Brain. The Big Brain betrayed Suen. It used a trap to lure Suen to other crystal wall universes, and Causing the great Thun to be in trouble, the loyal Thun mind flayer must kill the Big Brain to ensure his absolute loyalty to the great Thun!
Buzz!
Thousands of Suen constructs began to gather, and Nautilus battleships took off one after another. The Suen mind flayers are 'vassals of my vassals, not my vassals.' Mind demons are loyal to the elder brains that breed them, and they are nominally obedient to the Great Overmind. They are similar to vassal lords, with their own mind flayer colonies.
Thun's mind flayer fleet has rebelled!
