Chapter 20: Ups and downs
Wait, wait, what a joke!
Mo Chen suddenly couldn't calm down, he looked at the Outsider Demon Mark on the back of his left hand, and felt a little unable to calm down, almost subconsciously continued to use the ability of flickering teleportation.
However, the magic ability that had been verified many times before was completely out of order at this moment. The mana was not consumed at all, and Mo Chen did not successfully teleport to reach his locked destination.
"Is it separated by glass? In fact, there can be no obstacles in the middle? ”
A little nervous dry laugh, Mo Chen hurriedly opened the window, and then continued the previous attempt. Unfortunately, however, there is still no practical significance.
- Flickering teleportation, a skill that was used many times not long ago, seems to have suddenly turned gray now, and no matter how Mo Chen tries, he can't use it anymore.
"Are you kidding? Are the rules of the two worlds still different? ”
Mo Chen stopped his useless attempt with some despair, feeling that he had no love.
After tasting the benefits of extraordinary strength, it is really addictive, and the simplest example is that if a person has experienced a strong and healthy body, then he will never accept a weak constitution and a paralyzed state.
The difference between the feeling of mastering extraordinary strength and ordinary people is the huge difference between a person who is strong and healthy and can challenge extreme sports, and a person who is paralyzed and disabled and can only lie in a hospital bed.
But now, gone, it's all gone.
All of a sudden, he changed from a normal person who walked like a fly to a state of paralysis and amputation...... Mo Chen showed an ugly smile, sighed again and again, and choked his wrists.
Although this is one of the possibilities that I have thought about for a long time, when it does happen and becomes a reality, it still makes people feel unbearable!
He sighed, as if he had lost millions at once, and no matter what, he couldn't contain the frustration and unwillingness in his heart......
Wait, what seems to be overlooked?
No mana burned?
If you really have lost your magical powers, why do you still have magical powers? And I didn't feel any obvious weakening of my physical fitness, and when I looked at it from a distance just now, my eyesight was still so sharp and powerful......
He quickly sensed that something was wrong, and calmed down just as quickly.
If you feel it carefully, the magic in your body is full and has not disappeared. His strengthened physical abilities were also not diminished, and he felt that he was still much stronger than before, as were his nerve reflexes.
His extremely keen five senses allowed him to clearly grasp the movement of the entire room, even the corridor outside and the living room further away.
Although it is not enough to say that even the location of the cockroach can be known immediately, if someone or other ordinary animals enter the house, Mo Chen will definitely be able to detect it at the first time.
This allowed him to confirm that the enhancements he had gained through the Outsider Mark had not disappeared.
So, why can't the magic ability of initiative be used? No, maybe it's not that active magic abilities don't work, but just flickering teleportation.
He pondered so much that he suddenly felt that he might have grasped the key question, so without any hesitation, he directly tried to use the magic ability of Void Perception, and this time...... It worked.
The all-round perceptual realm unfolds at once, through the wall, through the physical object, through the floor, constantly sending out perceptual "pulses" that spread out in the direction of the surroundings.
"Whew—sure enough, that's how it was."
Although he was not very accustomed to this strange form of perception, it was undeniable that Mo Chen was much more relieved because of the successful use of perception magic.
It seems that things are already very clear, and the enhancements and abilities have not disappeared, but there are some special problems.
Mainly, the flickering teleportation is limited alone. However, judging from the fact that Void Perception can be used normally, only teleportation cannot be used, which seems to be a bit intriguing.
After all, from beginning to end, Mo Chen only mastered two magical abilities in addition to passive enhancement. All passive enhancements are not restricted, and Void Perception can be used normally, except for the ability icon that flashes and teleports to turn gray......
But given the nature of the magical ability of flickering teleportation, it seems that the answer is on the horizon.
Because to put it bluntly, only this magic ability is different, and the other passive enhancements or void perceptions are mainly based on their own bonus amplification and other effects, only flickering teleportation really needs to interact with the external environment.
- Perhaps, that's why.
After all, after using six ancient runes to strengthen them one after another, although no other new magical abilities were developed, Mo Chen's own upper limit of magic power, physical fitness, and the magic abilities he had already mastered were greatly strengthened again.
It's not just the void perception that has undergone a qualitative change, but so has the flickering teleportation—
This ability can be explored in a larger range after being strengthened, although it is not like the game is only a dozen meters away, but it does have a limit value, and it is impossible to say that you can teleport directly to the surface of the moon if you look up and see the moon.
The enhancement of the ancient rune is to increase the limit range that flicker teleportation can reach, and expand the teleportation distance.
Regarding the limit distance that a teleportation can cross, Mo Chen has not measured it for the time being, but it should definitely be more than two or three hundred meters, at least the places he can see clearly can teleport over.
And the most important thing is reflected in the effect of other skill branches, which is no longer limited to being able to unilaterally teleport to where you are, but also being able to teleport with others.
Or it is a direct exchange with a person or object in a certain place, and the two parties exchange places......
Maybe if he continues to strengthen it, sooner or later he will be able to teleport certain people or objects directly to the designated location, such as transferring glass or iron pieces directly to the enemy's body-
…… Ahem, well, let's not talk about such a discordant thing for now.
Anyway, that's probably it.,Flickering teleportation is not only a magic ability that acts on oneself.,It's also a magic ability that interacts with the external environment.,So it doesn't seem to be usable now.。
Mo Chen couldn't figure out what the reason was, after all, this matter obviously couldn't be explained by known science, and he had just started in the magic field, relying on the official plug-in opened by the Outsider.
The skill of "occult knowledge" itself has not been lit up a few levels, and it has not even been lit up much.
Therefore, it is normal to not understand the situation.
And he himself has some ignorant guesses and ideas, but there is no way to confirm it at present.
"It seems that the connection has weakened...... Then again, does this world exist in the realm of the Void? ”
Raising the back of his left hand to look at the Outer Demon Mark on the back of his hand, Mo Chen carefully sensed the connection that seemed to be nothing, and found that it was indeed weakened, even so faint that he couldn't sense it, and the feeling that he was standing on the edge of something disappeared.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the mana that has just been consumed can still be restored, although the rate has decreased a lot, but at least it is indeed recovering steadily.
"It should be...... Yes, right? Mo Chen was a little unsure about the question he was considering.
The Void is an alternate dimension in the World of Dishonor, containing organic, chaotic floating islands with eerie scenes that represent events in the "real world".
However, they were all stationary as if the pause button had been pressed, and there were bright beams of light coming from somewhere in the distance.
It's just that the definition of the realm of the void is actually like a world in the afterlife, or like a dream.
For it is said that those discordant souls will go to the realm of the void and wander there for a long time until they are devoured, and the peaceful and quiet souls will be rewarded for not being there.
In the same way, when someone is dying, or briefly enters a state similar to death, the consciousness will leave the world and go to another place, which is the realm of emptiness.
There are many ways to enter the Void Realm, the section chief generally only enters the Void Realm while sleeping, and Daode and Delilah can use magic to directly travel to the Void Realm.
The Outsider's shrine is also one of the means by which you can access the Void Realm, and when the rune in front of the shrine is taken away or touched, the outsider will appear in front of the person with the Outsider's mark and start chatting and farting.
But only he can find it through the shrine, and no one else can find it through the shrine.
Turning around and picking up the cube to observe, Mo Chen quickly thought about various possibilities. Now that the "door" is closed, there is no doubt that it is cut off from the world of shame.
However, he can still use the magic ability brought by the Outsider Mark, and he can still recover the consumed magic power, which means that the Void Realm is not really far away, or the current world also has the Void Realm.
After all, by definition, it is a mirror dimension of the real world that a soul that is asleep or dying, and it is possible to get a glimpse of it.
It's just that it may be that in the current world, the Void Realm is not as ubiquitous as it is in the Shame World.
Or, perhaps, it is ubiquitous, but lacks a supernatural connection to the real world. Only Mo Chen, who possessed the mark of the Outsider, was able to communicate with it and continue to use the supernatural power from it.
But he is alone, after all, there is only one "node", which is why the current phenomenon will occur-
All enhancements or magical abilities that have an effect on the self are effective, with the exception of flickering teleportation, which requires interaction with the outside environment.
The reason is because he is the only one who can connect to the void in this world, and there is no other place at all...... Focus point.
In other words, the power of the Void Realm can only work on his body with the mark of the Outsider, but there is no channel to exert his power anywhere except for his "node".
Of course, this is also Mo Chen's own irresponsible conjecture, without any theoretical basis to support it.
It's just that for now, it seems that there is only one such possibility, which belongs to the largest.
No, there is no way, Mo Chen, who realized that his strength was not deprived, exhaled a long breath, relieved a lot, and suddenly felt tiredness surging all over his body.
Just now, he was able to beat his spirits, and even wanted to go out to blow the night breeze, but now that there was a sudden rise and fall like this, he couldn't bear it anymore.
Coupled with the fact that flickering teleportation was banned, he didn't want to walk out and walk around the streets at night now, so he just sighed and closed the window and closed the curtains.
He picked up the mysterious cube and placed the pistol he had brought back under his bed, along with the city police officer's saber.
That's the only way to go, there's no safe at home, and that's not safe enough.
Maybe you'll want to think about expanding a basement and bringing a couple of light curtain generators or arc towers from the world of dishonor, the kind that promises to turn any intruder to ashes in an instant.
