Chapter 708: Beneath the Silver Sky (II.)

Eltaran's tirade can actually be boiled down to one sentence: magic is scum, and psionic energy is the highest!

So in fact, magic or psionic energy, which method of spell casting (manifestation) is more advantageous?

Roland couldn't help but pat his forehead when he heard Eltaran throw this topic, worried that if the answer he gave was not what the other party wanted, it might lead to an endless tearing war. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Psionic energy is the so-called "blue bar casting mode", while magic is "spell slot mode", which of the two modes is better? Most people think it's the former, and Roland tends to agree with that conclusion. But he also knows that the spell bit also has the advantage that the "blue bar" cannot reach, which is a standardized, modular system product, with the greatest characteristics of the magic industry era, the pursuit of rationality and efficiency and the abandonment of individuality and freedom, especially in the popularization of spells and the teaching system This advantage is particularly obvious, and the psychic ability attaches more importance to talent and personal spiritual practice, and those mysterious personal perceptions are difficult to describe in words and words, and it is difficult to create talents in batches through centralized schooling.

To take the simplest example: a mage can learn new spells on his own by reading and analyzing scrolls, and there is no limit to the number of spells he can master; Psychic Warlocks have far fewer abilities at their disposal, and learning new abilities is far from being as simple as copying scrolls.

Comparing psychic warlocks and mages, it is difficult to say which is stronger or weaker in terms of individuals of the same level, but it is not difficult to find that after years of development, the mage class is growing day by day, and there is no shortage of mages in some rural towns, and there are many magic academies in major cities to cultivate newcomers, and the inheritance of psychic warlocks has hardly been promoted among large groups such as humans, dwarves, and elves who do not have psionic talents, and the number of demonstrators has not increased significantly.

The mage class has developed more novel spells, and the large dictionary containing spell entries has been expanded from the "Thousand Laws Encyclopedia" to the "Ten Thousand Laws Encyclopedia", and the application of magic has penetrated into all aspects from military affairs to people's livelihood, and is closely related to the lives of ordinary people.

What about psionic energy? The number of known psychic abilities today is much smaller than magic, the two are not an order of magnitude at all, and it is difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to see psionic abilities in their lifetime, and psionic civilizations are mainly concentrated in specific ethnic groups and specific regions, and are undoubtedly niche and non-mainstream compared to magical civilizations.

"Lady Eltaran, you were once a psionic master, what abilities can you show now besides perception sharing?" Roland interrupted her rambling speech.

The Eye of All Worlds snorted and fell silent. Roland sensed her depressed mood through "sensory sharing" - Eltaran's past pride was shattered in front of the cold walls of reality, she was once a god-level psychiocracy, but now she ...... A good woman doesn't mention the courage of the year.

Perhaps trying to get out of the embarrassing situation of the cowhide blowing, Eltaran fought back bluntly: "I don't need you to worry about my business!" You'd better care about your situation, and in ten seconds a horde of Gisyankees will be here! ”

"I'm not going to be stupid here waiting for them to besiege." Roland quickly checked the surrounding terrain and swung his sword to extinguish the daylight spell, and the underground mine returned to darkness.

"Sputnia, can you see the map of the silver sky that Eltaran shared with me?"

"As long as Ms. Eltaran adds me to the sequence of 'perception sharing', I can see it, and I am trained to read pictures professionally, so I will remember any map I have seen at a glance, and I will never recognize the wrong way."

"Little one, I've shared my perception with your navigation envoy, although this little girl's combat power is almost zero, her brain is quite good, Sindra sent this living treasure to serve you, it seems that she really values you."

Roland smiled and gestured directly to Sputnia: "Send me to those Giesyankees, I'm going to take the initiative." ”

"The host...... Are you sure? Wouldn't that be a little too risky? ”

"Because of the risk, the Gisyankees will not be guarded, you don't have to worry about anything else, just teleport me to a hidden corner behind them." Roland freed his left hand and pulled out the magic shotgun "Starember" from his waist, and the corners of his lips raised a cold arc, "I've had enough of those mad dogs, instead of being chased and bitten by them like this, it's better to take advantage of the complicated environment in the pit to go around and go back and blast their chrysanthemums, and make these damn Gisyankes pay for the tail line!" ”

……

A team of heavily armed Ghisyankee warriors searched along the underground tunnels, and suddenly noticed a magical light not far ahead, and immediately opened the "arbitrary door" and jumped over.

By the time they arrived, the light source had gone out, and there were still strong magical fluctuations left on the scene.

"Mr. Captain, the ghosts in this area have been dispelled, and that kid probably released the Dawn Spell, so it can be seen that he is likely to be a spellcaster." The Gisyankee officer who led the team reported to Colonel Dasbell with a "heart-to-heart connection".

"I'm rushing over there, be careful, that little mouse may be more difficult to deal with than we expected, Major Hansen is near you, I'll let him go over and support as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Captain, for your concern, if Mr. Hansen comes, he will be able to pull that kid out of the dog's hole."

Major Hansen is a high-ranking Gisyankee ranger, best known as the "Darth Bell's Hound".

The underground pit is dark, but fortunately, the Giesyankees have a natural "dark vision", and they can see the traces left at the scene without the help of natural light sources, and with their tracking level, they can only barely identify the footprints of human beings, as for the specific trace analysis, they need to wait for Major Hansen to come over for a more professional judgment.

As the group of Gizyankees searched around, the dull air in the mining field seemed to tremble, and everyone suddenly felt that it was pitch black before their eyes.

"What's the matter, it's suddenly dark?" A Gisyankee looked up blankly.

The captain who led the team immediately sensed that something was wrong! There was no light in the mine, so how could it suddenly get darker? There can only be one reason for this - someone is unleashing "dark magic" to obscure their visual senses with supernatural darkness created by magic!

"Beware of enemy attacks—"

The captain yelled in a hurry as he hurriedly drew his sword.

However, as soon as his fingertips touched the hilt of the sword, a golden blade had already appeared in front of him out of thin air, and the intense light emitted by the blade forced him to instinctively close his eyes, and the next moment he completely lost consciousness.
