129. Truncate life
After a long conversation, Li Nuo obtained a lot of extremely useful information from Dinas and corrected his thinking mistakes in time.
It can be said that without the information provided by Dinas, Leno would have taken many, many detours.
For example, Alchemy Stone and Alchemy Set.
Li Nuo once wanted to give himself an alchemy stone and create an alchemy suit.
This idea is wrong.
Wizards don't need alchemy stones.
Alchemy stones occupy a part of the wizard's soul and spirit world, hindering the learning of difficult magic.
Not only that, but the alchemy stone is still a fatal flaw for wizards.
If an enemy wants to deal with a wizard who has no alchemy stones, they can only attack him.
With the alchemy stone, it undoubtedly provides a second place for the enemy to start.
A wizard who doesn't have an alchemy stone just needs to protect himself. But if you have an alchemy stone, then you can also divide a part of your mind to protect it, which will undoubtedly make the alchemy stone a burden for wizards.
Secondly, the alchemy set is also useless for wizards.
What kind of alchemy suit you wear, what kind of ability you will have, which is equivalent to writing your extraordinary abilities directly on your clothes to show the enemy.
What's more, the alchemy array on the alchemy set will also affect the wizard's spell casting.
If you must use a layer of magic armor for extra protection, Dinas suggests that Leno can find an opportunity to complete a "magic equipment".
A "magic device" is a type of magical armor that can be stored in the soul, and is far more convenient to carry and wear than an alchemy suit.
Its designers are none other than the former Alchemy Sages who left the Alchemy Sanctuary and joined the Unas Ring.
Think of it this way:
The "Alchemy Set" is just a low-level version of the "Magic Apparatus Set".
There are "Alchemy Sets" and "Magic Equipment", and they perform even better.
At present, only the "supreme computing power" recently developed by the Alchemy Sanctuary is a bit interesting.
The Wizard Forward Society did not give the Elemental Judgment the task of researching the "supreme computing power", and the Unas Ring did not collect specific data on this alchemy set.
As a result, the "Supreme Computing Power" was not converted into a "Magic Equipment".
The alchemy constructs associated with this alchemy set have not yet attracted the attention of the Wizard Forward Society.
In the eyes of the Wizards Forward Society, the so-called alchemical constructs are very similar to magical servants, and do not have much research value.
Now that I think about it, Li Nuo's idea of making alchemy stones and alchemy suits only appeared after seeing Filia and the others of the Elemental Judgment wear the Meow Meow Alchemy Suit.
Filia: Wearing the Meow Meow Alchemy Set was a last resort.
This is the requirement of the Alchemy Sanctuary for the first-level magic research institutions in the domain.
After leaving the Golden Federation, they will immediately abandon the alchemy set and alchemy stone.
Li Nuo had previously thought that the Elemental Trial would have required wearing a Meow Meow Alchemy Suit. At this time, when he heard the truth relayed by Dinas, he realized how wrong he was.
There are many more common-sense mistakes like these.
Anyway, after Li Nuo and Dinas finished chatting, they only had one feeling:
Shocked!
What he thought was very advanced was actually very backward in the Unas Ring!
The replacement of the Alchemy Set with a magic device is a prime example.
As early as 100 years ago, Unas Ring had figured out all the mysteries of the alchemy set through a first-level magic research institute set up in the Dian Jin Dynasty.
Back then, there weren't even the Golden Federation or the Aberrations.
It was only when Li Nuo heard this history that he realized why the Elemental Trial's research mission here was to develop "distortion magic" instead of the alchemy suit.
The research task of "Research Alchemy Suit" was completed more than 100 years ago...
Unas Ring, the Ox, is worthy of being a magical country driven by wizarding forces, and its research power and productivity are truly amazing.
And that's not all.
She also gave Li Nuo valuable advice on how to grab wealth and soul crumbs in the midst of great turmoil.
Medicines are the most critical thing in the whole incident.
As a witch who specializes in the role of a wet nurse, Dinas has an absolute say in the medical field.
In the last three years, she has discovered:
The local medical services of the Golden Federation rely heavily on alchemy.
The essence of alchemy is to exchange equivalence according to the established alchemical formula.
The "equivalent exchange" of alchemy is a cruel thing when it comes to healing wounds, and healthy creatures must be sacrificed in order to heal the dying wounded.
During the Dianjin Dynasty, living alchemy would be used, exchanging the life of one living person for the life of another.
After the fall of the Dian Jin Dynasty, the use of living alchemy was restricted.
To this day, the Golden Federation's natively produced healing potions only allow the use of live critters as alchemy materials.
If the war situation is urgent, the shortage of healing potions is almost a certainty.
At that time, all kinds of medicines, which are substitutes for healing potions, will definitely become sky-high.
Where are the drugs produced that have the advantages of large production, fast effect, and mild side effects?
That's right, the Tatis Empire.
To be precise, it should be the medicine used by MI3 of the Tatis Empire.
To be more precise, it is a life elixir diluted from "Extraordinary Properties: Vitality Surge".
For this life-saving elixir from the Tatis Empire, the Alchemy Sanctuary and its many subordinate alchemy forces have always adhered to the attitude of receiving as much as they come.
Every life elixir that enters the Aggregation City from the gray channel can be sold for a price of 5,000 to 10,000 Aggregation Coins.
And this thing is preferable in large quantities, and the more it is sold, the higher the unit price.
If Li Nuo has a way to secure the supply of goods and ensure his own safety at the same time...
Hey, hey, hey...
He will definitely be able to make a profit in this great upheaval and save many lives at the same time.
So the question is, where to get a large amount of life potion?
The answer may lie in the result of the decomposition of the "spawned distortion of the wings".
β¦
γAttributesγ
(Values in parentheses are the property values of normal winged distortions)

Strength: 5 (9)
Tenacity: 17 (35)
Vitality: 15 (5)
Dexterity: 16 (30)
Spirit: 12 (3)
Charisma: -12 (-6)
γFeaturesγ
Catalysts:
These emaciated distortions of the wings are born from external stimuli, and their actual combat effectiveness is only half that of normal conditions.
β¦
The "vitality" attribute of the spawned Wings Distortion is much higher than that of normal Wings Distortions.
Leno had serious suspicions that what Samuelson and MI5 used to spawn the distortion of the wings was most likely a life elixir.
Judging from his experience in the Junction of Afflictions, only the life potion linked to the "Vitality Surge" can give birth to the winged distortions while giving them a "vitality" attribute higher than that of their kind.
So, to sum up:
Near the heart of the lair in the Savage Wasteland, there is definitely a large number of life potions.
To take it a step further:
Between the Rocky Wastelands and the Blade Mountains, there must have been a supply route for transporting life potions.
Li Nuo found a map of the Wild Stone Wasteland. Referring to the memories of following MI5 in his mind, he drew a path line along the direction of the other party's travel.
The northern node of this pathline is connected to the nascent distortion rift.
The southern node, on the other hand, is connected to the Bunker 16 outlet inside the Blade Mountains.
If Li Nuo is not wrong, the route he drew is the supply line for MI5 to transport life potions.
In order to draw this line, it is necessary to have a layout of the bunkers and tunnels built by the Imperial army inside the Blade Mountains.
This top-secret information was scavenged by Li Nuo in the process of escaping from the Junction of Suffering.
Once the speculation on the supply route was confirmed, Leno could begin to prepare the next plan.
MI5 teams transporting life potions may have "Imperial Fists" or winged distortions to accompany them.
Can he Li Nuo alone, plus a wet nurse, take away the life potion from the Winged Distortion and the "Imperial Fist"?
It's difficult, it's risky, it's barely possible.
In order to ensure the success of the plan, Li Nuo needed helpers, and they were absolutely trustworthy helpers.
On the third day back in Convergence City, Filia visited her and invited Li Nuo to the manor to discuss the honorarium.
At Dinas's suggestion, Leno drew up a list of honorariums.
In the order of the list, he selected a magic robe, three magic materials, two magic scrolls to summon a magic broomstick, and a coin card with a denomination of 300,000 aggregate coins from the cat society manor.
Before parting, Lino asked Filia about her plans for the near future.
After learning that Filia and the wizard students of the Elemental Judgment did not plan to leave the Gathering City, Li Nuo left the manor in a compassionate manner, without mentioning anything related to the life-stealing potion.
Li Nuo was not surprised by the operation of the Meow Meow trial.
Dinas had told him that the Elemental Trial's local first-level magic research institute was not allowed to be involved in anything related to closing the rift of the aberration.
This is clearly mentioned in the contract between the Elemental Judgment and the Alchemy Sanctuary.
Since the Elemental Trial can't be a partner to work with, then Li Nuo has only one choice left:
Gold Chamber of Commerce.
Dressed in the sunset, Li Nuo strolled along the bustling streets and stopped in front of the "good dream of money".
He pushed the door open and stepped inside, where he saw the voluptuous women waiting in the hall.
"It's really strange." Cindy crossed her arms and smiled, and said:
"When you asked someone to bring me the letter, I thought I had heard it wrong. I really didn't expect you, who have been busy all day, to come to me for a stroll... Come with me, let's go to the office. β
"Did Cont hear from the Wild Rock Wasteland?" Li Nuo asked as he followed the other party.
"Not yet. But that's a good thing. Because in general, it's basically bad news that comes back. β
Cindy led Li Nuo into her office, brought hot tea and placed it in front of Li Nuo, and then sat down on the chair opposite the other party.
The slit dress on her body accentuated her figure well. The curve of the folded legs after sitting down is enough to feast the eyes of everyone sitting opposite.
Li Nuo calmly picked up the teacup:
"I'm here to work with you."
Cindy lit her cigarette with a skilful demeanor and said:
"Well, I know. I know very well that you don't come to me for momentary pleasures. Once you come to the door, there must be something serious. So just ask. β
Li Nuo directly threw a bombshell:
"I got the message. The aberrant rift that appears in the Wild Stone Wasteland is the result of a collaboration between MI5 and a wizard criminal. Yes, you heard it right. It was an artificially created aberration. β
Cindy was so stunned that she forgot to smoke the cigarette between her fingers.
She opened her mouth, took a slight breath, and asked in a deep voice:
"Are you sure? β¦ Where did you get the news from? Is it reliable? β
"Very reliable. Source, I am inconvenient to say. Li Nuo said in a firm tone:
"The Tatis Empire has used life potions and controllable mutation technology to shorten the formation time of the heart of the nest, giving birth to a large number of winged aberrations. This is the primary reason why the aberrant nests in the Wild Stone Wasteland have grown so quickly. β
Cindy wanted to ask something, but Li Nuo shook his hand and said first:
"Cindy, I can't reveal the exact source of the intelligence."
Li Nuo reached into his inner pocket, took the pre-prepared envelope, and handed it to Cindy:
"Let's see."
Cindy put down the cigarette in her hand and took the envelope.
She glanced at the simple map and text on the letter:
"Could this be the Empire's roadmap for delivering life potions to the Wild Stone Wasteland?"
"Yes." Li Nuo nodded and said:
"My appeal is simple. They wanted the Gathering City to send a team to intercept the life potion. This roadmap is my sincerity. As for the intercepted life elixir, I suggest that it be divided into three or seven. Your Gold Chamber of Commerce owns seventy percent. I took the remaining thirty percent and handed them over to those who provided me with information. In addition to this, I would like to receive some monetary rewards. The specific amount, we will wait for the life elixir to arrive. β
Cindy looked at the road map in her hand, took a long breath and smiled:
"The next time you provide such heavy news, can you let me be mentally prepared... My heart almost popped out..."
Li Nuo picked up the teacup, took a slow sip, and smiled faintly at Cindy.
How important is this information?
It's not an exaggeration to say that it can change the tide of the war.
Li Nuo put down the teacup and said:
"Cyndi, whether this roadmap is accurate or not has yet to be confirmed. But the rest of the information I have revealed is true. The enemies you will face in this operation may be the "Imperial Fist" and the Wings Aberration. If you don't mind, I'd like to join in the interception of the Elixir of Life. β
"No problem, it should be. Wait a minute, I'll have someone call for the Golden Merchant's sword. β
Cindy opened the office door and asked one of her employees to run errands and carry the letter.
After about 10 minutes, a burly man entered the office.
The man was nearly two meters tall, as wide as the door panel, and thirty centimeters thick from chest to back.
A leather cloak of black fabric with gold trim obscured most of his body, and behind it was a two-handed heavy sword more than a meter long and an exquisite alchemical firearm.
When the man shook hands with Li Nuo, he wore gloves made of metal and soft leather. Beneath the uncovered cloak was a complete set of dark brown leather armor inlaid with metal armor.
"I am Daric, a fifth-order alchemist, the gold merchant's sword of the Gold Chamber of Commerce."
Daric shook Li's hand vigorously and shook his wrist up and down. When he spoke, the urn was like a giant bear roaring:
"I've known you from Cindy and Conte for a long time, Lei Lee. Now I've finally met you in person. β
Li Nuo raised his head slightly and looked at Daric, who was much taller than himself:
"Fortunately."
Cindy handed Daric an envelope and dictated the information that Leno had conveyed.
Daric tucked the envelope under his leather armor, scratched the brown beard on his chin and said:
"I am 100% convinced of the authenticity of the information you have conveyed on your behalf. I don't say this because of intuition or anything.
"Just before I came, I received the message. The alchemists who arrived at the edge of the rift concluded that the emaciated winged aberrations had much higher physical activity than ordinary aberrations. This coincides with MI5's statement that it uses life potions to create winged aberrations. β
Daric looked at Lenovo:
"The day after tomorrow, the alchemist army summoned by the Alchemy Sanctuary will set off. But I don't think the matter of intercepting the life potion will not be able to wait that long. I'm going to set off at once to intercept the Life Elixir. What do you think, Li Lei? β
"That's what I thought too."
"Well, see you in the backyard of Iron Thorn Shield in 1 hour, I'll bring all my teammates... Cindy, get ready for 15 motorcycles with a full tank of fuel. I've got some alchemy traps here, and an alchemy turret. You give them to Mark. β
Darik looks rather rugged, but in fact, he is delicate, and everything is arranged in a few words. Even the matter of Conte entrusting Li Nuo to take care of Mark was taken over by him with alchemy traps and alchemy turrets.
The group went into action.
Cindy goes to the Iron Thorn Shield to gather the vehicle, Daric gathers his team, and Leno goes back to pack his luggage.
He said he was packing his luggage, but he actually said hello to Dinas.
The two agreed that after Li Nuo left the city, Dinas would go out of the city with him. She will be ready to answer the call within 103 kilometers of Linuo.
The maximum distance to respond to the call was 100 km, but now it is 103 km.
This is the result of Dinas's accelerated cultivation of the "Rebirth Meditation Method" in the past two days.
According to the panel data, her "Rebirth Meditation Method" has been upgraded from level 30 to level 31. Correspondingly, her inventory of rebirth mana has dropped from more than 1,000 points to about 600 points.
Li Nuo discussed with her and guaranteed at least 500 points of reincarnation magic in his hands. Rebirth magic beyond this number can be used to cultivate meditation methods.
Lino used the unit of measurement "point" to measure energy, which did not make Dinas feel awkward.
Because in the wizarding world, energy is measured in "points".
As long as the wizard enters the meditative state, he can see how many energies he has suspended in the spiritual ocean in the form of points of light in his spiritual ocean. They can calculate their own energy points in an instant.
This is also the common sense that Dinas revealed to Lino.
The meditation method that Li Nuo learned was incomplete.
Sensei said that the dotted energy suspended in the spiritual ocean was the "spiritual ocean", which he had never seen, and it was the first time he had heard anyone talk about the existence of this thing.
β¦
β¦
One hour later, Li Nuo joined Daric and the others in the backyard of Ironthorn Shield.
Daric's team consists of 12 players.
He himself, as the captain, is a fifth-order alchemist.
The vice-captain was a woman named Angeli, a fourth-order alchemist with two lever-type shotguns hanging from her back.
Angeli is about 30 years old, with some freckles on her face, rough skin, and a strong body, looking like a muscular strong woman.
The remaining 10 members of the team are both men and women, all third-order alchemists, and the weapons they use are basically firearms.
Judging from Daric's introduction to them, these gold merchant swords are all "high-achieving students" who graduated from the Alchemy Academy.
In terms of their duties, full-time combat members like the Sword of the Golden Merchant are the "professional soldiers" of the Golden Federation.
The team is ready and sets off immediately.
Daric and Leno each drove a motorcycle at the head of the group.
Instead of exiting through the gates of Sector 7, the convoy took a secret passage under the Ironthorn Shield Security Company building. This way, you can avoid the crowds on the ground and go straight to the wilderness outside of the Convergence City.
This is a cover-up to avoid possible prying eyes and ensure that the entire interception operation is kept in a state of secrecy.
"Li Lei, I heard that some wizards are trapped in the rift of the Wild Stone Wasteland?" Darik asked Lino, who was neck and neck.
The motorcycles were moving at full speed, and the night breeze was blowing near evening.
Li Nuo bowed his head in the wind and said:
"That's right, Darik."
"Are you interested in having a vote with me? Li lei? Daric grinned:
"Through the Cat Society, the Elemental Trial issued a reward order to various alchemy forces. As long as you can rescue the trapped wizard, you can get a lot of aggregator rewards. Rescue a bone shelf and reward 800,000 aggregate coins. Rescue a male wizard wearing glasses with a reward of 1.5 million. Rescue the fanged wizard with a reward of 1 million to 3 million.
"How? When you've robbed the life potion, follow me around the rift. With your skills, we'll lock down wizards faster than any other team. β
Li Nuo's face was strange:
"Bone shelf? A witch with fangs? Is that what the bounty order says? β
"Haha, yes, that's how it was written. Probably worried that our group of alchemists couldn't tell who was who, so the Elemental Trial directly described the appearance of the wizard, and also accompanied it with a portrait. β
Darik dug into his leather armor and pulled out a stack of papers:
"Well, that's the bounty order."
Li Nuo took a look at the portrait above.
Not to mention, it's quite similar. Especially the three skeletal Tomb Wizards under the Tomb King, even the number of bones on their bodies was marked.
"No, Daric, I'm not going to get involved in rescuing the wizard." Li Nuo shook his head and rejected the other party's request:
"After I get the life potion, I have to send it to the intelligence officers as soon as possible, and there will be a lot of delay in the meantime."
"Oh, well...", Darik couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
"There's a place where you have to be more careful." Li Nuo paused and said:
"In that lair, there may be a psychic wizard, the kind of wizard who plays with people's hearts and perceptions. His frontal combat ability is not strong, but he is certainly very good at playing with means and tricks. β
Daric's face became solemn:
"Thanks for the reminder, Lei Li. Is it because of this wizard that you and the Elemental Judgment are reluctant to enter the lair? β
Li Nuo replied, "Yes." β
Daric's expression became more and more solemn, and he frowned and fell into thought.
Li Nuo looked at the grassland in front of him and laughed self-deprecatingly...
He was planning to keep his head in obscurity a few days ago...
Huh.
Now it's time to sabotage the plans of the Tatis Empire.
I'm afraid that one day, the hatred value on the "Reincarnation Magic Potential" will rise to the limit.
Speaking of hatred, Li Nuo was somewhat helpless.
He thought that after two days of silence, his hatred would drop a bit.
But the reality is that the hatred value does not increase or decrease.
Obviously, the reduction of hatred is not something that can be achieved in a day or two. It may take a month or two, or even a year or two, for the hate to go down.
It is precisely because of this that Li Nuo completely dispelled the idea of Taoguang raising obscurity.
Since the Tatis Empire's hatred for him can't be lowered, then don't drop it!
After offending the empire and the emperor, Li Nuo did not plan to live permanently on Dianjin Island.
Catch the wool of the Tatis Empire and swoop it hard!
It doesn't matter what kind of hatred it has or not, it's a big deal to start the runaway plan.
β¦
β¦
The motorcycle is speeding, the sun and the moon are changing, and the starry night is falling.
After midnight, the convoy sped all the way to the edge of the rocky wasteland.
They turned off all the lamps and approached the route of the Tatis Empire to transport life potions in the dark.
A line segment on the map corresponds to the real rocky wasteland, which is an endless sea of sand.
The dry air was filled with sand and dust, mixed with a faint smell of distortion.
In addition to the dunes, or the dunes.
In such an environment, searching for MI5 teams transporting vital elixirs is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
If MI5 uses special vehicles suitable for driving in the sand sea, the difficulty of intercepting life potions will be even more difficult.
Fortunately, Daric and the others prepared in advance.
Each of them had four or five jars of bell ladybugs stored in their alchemy stones.
Under normal circumstances, the Golden Merchant's Sword will perform tasks in areas below 20 floors below the basement of the Rift Corridor, and will need to use the Bell Ladybug to maintain its vigilance.
At this time, it is perfectly fine to use these little bugs as a tool to search MI5.
As Darik called the shots, the team dispersed. Each person is responsible for monitoring a sea of sand more than 10 kilometers wide, and jointly build a warning area from west to east.
They activate the alchemy runes on their cloaks to disguise themselves as rocks on the dunes, or simply lie on the sea of sand disguised as sand.
Time passes in a dull vigilance.
The sea of sand is vast, the air is dry, and the surroundings are quiet.
The second day of waiting for the rabbit, after nightfall.
The silence of the sea of sand was shattered by the sound of wings flapping across the sky.
A group of wing-distorted figures flapped their wings behind them and flew over the heads of Darik's group.
They hurried, without the slightest intention of lingering, and flew straight towards the dark shadows of the mountains far to the south.
"Our goal has emerged."
Darik crouched on the ground, watching the movements of the winged distortion with his binoculars.
He crushed the bell worm in his palm and called for his teammates to assemble.
After a while, the team members stepped on alchemy air cushion shoes, moved quickly on the sand sea, and converged on Darik's side.
Darik looked around at his teammates and asked:
"Anyone who is close to me has seen the distortion of the wings flying south, right?"
"Yes, head." Vice-captain Angelie was eager to try, clenched her fists and hammered in front of her, and said in a rough female voice:
"Those winged deformants are acting strangely, they must have gone to the Blade Mountains to take over the life potion. And only these flying aberrants can sail freely on the sand sea... I really didn't expect that this group of aberrants would be changed by MI5 people. β
The team members on the side were also surprised and emotional.
Before the vigilance began, Li Nuo told them in detail about this group of artificially created two-wing distortions.
They all thought it was incredible. It was only now that they completely agreed with the information provided by Li Nuo.
"I don't think there will be a 'Fist of the Empire' in the team escorting the potion to the rift. This slows down the winged distortion. Daric asked:
"What do you think, Li Lei?"
Li Nuo thought for a moment and said:
"That's it, Daric. I went up to see what was going on. I'll be back with a message as soon as the status of the team is confirmed. β
Darik scratched his beard:
"Can you guarantee that you won't be discovered? If you startle the snake, you will lose all your efforts. β
"Don't worry, I won't be discovered." Li Nuo responded calmly.
"Okay, there you go."
Li Nuo nodded at the temporary team members who were looking at him. Under the surprised gaze of the other party and others, he turned into a white skull flying in the air.
He clung to the ground and flew south, leaving behind him a low-voiced exclamation.
"Magic is magical... Li Lei actually turned into a skull..."
"It's so much more convenient than our alchemy wings..."
"The wizard does have two brushes..."
Darik pressed his palm, stopped talking, and ordered:
"Shhh Start checking alchemy equipment and ammunition. If there's only two-wing distortions in that team, we'll use alchemy cannonballs against them..."
Li Nuo glanced back at the team members who had pulled out the barrels from the alchemy stone, and then turned his head, focusing on tracking the wings aberration.
He summoned the "Psychic Beacon" in his mind, and went from level 10 to level 20 in one go.
[System News:]
You have spent 1450 energy. γ
[Level +10 for "Psychic Beacon", now level 20.] γ
[[Psychic Beacon's sensing range +100%, now 29 km.] γ
[The level of "Psychic Beacon" has reached level 20, and you have triggered the upgrade reward.] γ
Choose one of the following three options:
[Option 1:]
[[Psychic Beacon]'s sensing range +50% increased to 34 km.] γ
[Option 2:]
[Further enhance the "joint operation" feature.] +10 number of Machines to control at the same time, from 0/2 to 0/12. γ
[Option 3:]
["Psychic Beacon (Level 20)" is changed to "Psychic Tracking (Lv. 20).] γ
[You can track the minds of 10 targets at the same time, with an unlimited tracking range and unlimited duration.] You need to keep your energy at cost to maintain this spell. The amount of energy consumed per hour = 1 point * the number of tracking targets. γ
Li Nuo directly chooses "Option 2" to increase the maximum number of controls of the machine spirit to 12.
After placing a "Psychic Beacon", you can use "Psychic Vision" on the beacon to see the situation in the distance through the beacon's field of vision.
Looking south from where Li Nuo was at this time, the Blade Mountains just showed a narrow black edge on the southern horizon - this was the ridge of the Blade Mountains.
Mao estimates that Li Nuo is at least 30 kilometers away from the cliffs on the northern side of the mountain.
A Level 20 "Psychic Beacon" can be placed at any point within 29 kilometers of itself, provided that Leno can see that place.
Li Nuo could only see the summit of the Blade Mountains now, but the winged distortion obviously wouldn't go to the top of the wind-howling mountain to meet the Imperial army.
What he really wanted to focus on was the outlet of bunker 16, which was halfway up the mountain.
He couldn't see the mountainside of the Blade Mountains now, so what should he do?
This requires the use of the "Psychic Horizon" with the "Vision Jump" feature.
Leno landed on a sand dune and hid behind rocks.
He squinted at another sand dune far to the south, and silently chanted, "Place the Psychic Beacon." β
[System News:]
[You consume 1 energy and 0.1 soul energy to successfully place a Psychic Beacon.] γ
An illusory white dot that only Li Nuo could see appeared in his field of vision.
Li Nuo stared at the white dot and sketched out the blueprint for the spell casting of the "Spiritual Vision".
As soon as the picture in front of me turned, the perspective camera had already shifted to the psychic beacon.
Li Nuo turned the camera to look farther to the south, dropped the second Psychic Beacon, and cast a new "Psychic Horizon" on it.
After doing this three times, Li Nuo, who was 30 kilometers north of the Blade Mountain Range, moved his vision to a distance of 1 kilometer from the mountain cliff.
By the moment he had finished his field of vision, the group of winged distortions had only flown halfway through.
"This 'Psychic Beacon' is truly a high-level psychic magic... Just the fact that it can expand the field of vision with the "Psychic Vision" is definitely a reconnaissance skill. β
Li Nuo was amazed.
He calmed down and observed the situation on the cliff.
A group of Imperial people waiting at the outlet of the waterway caught his attention. Especially the burly lieutenant among them, Li Nuo recognized his identity at a glance.
"Isn't this Cavado? Hey, this guy wasn't killed by Greensau, and his life is too big. β
Li Nuo sneered, then shook his head slightly, staring at the masked man in the magical field of vision and observed:
"Huh? Who is this man? Why didn't you wear the military uniform of the Empire? Silver mask, black cloak. He covered himself tightly. Could it be that he is some important person? β
Through his magical vision, Li Nuo threw a deconstruction spell at the mysterious man in the silver mask.
[System News:]
[You're about to use deconstruction on "Wizard with an unknown name.] γ
[It is estimated that 40,000 energy points will be consumed, which can make the completion of deconstruction reach 100%.] γ
"40,000 energy? A Three-Ring Wizard? How did he end up in the queue of Imperial soldiers? And judging by his position with Cavado, he is the prefect of Cavado. β
Li Nuo's heart moved, and he spent 100 energy points to launch a deconstruction technique on the man.
The next second he received the result of the solution, he did not hesitate to terminate the "telepathy" and erase all the psychic beacons that had just been placed.
The Three-Ring Wizard, who requires 40,000 energy points to deconstruct, is already worth his caution.
Leno had asked Dinas about psychic magic.
Dinas said that the strength of a wizard's perception of energy fluctuations depends on the wizard's spiritual ocean.
The larger the spiritual ocean, the stronger the ability to perceive energy fluctuations, and the stronger the ability to control one's own magic, the power of magic will also increase.
The spiritual ocean is understood by Li Nuo as a "spiritual" attribute.
After learning from Dinas that there is common knowledge about the spiritual ocean, the core system prompt is deconstructed, and the "spiritual" entry is updated.
β¦
[Spirit] 22
This attribute is related to the cast effect.
For each 1 Spirit increase, spell power increases by 1 to 10, the maximum range of spells increases by 10 meters, and the perception of spell fluctuations increases by 1 to 10.
The specific stats of a spell's power increase and the amount of perception increase are related to the spells you cast and the spells cast at you.
You'll need to have more intel, or make extraordinary changes to yourself, in order to digitize the effects of your spells.
β¦
The deconstructed panel information shows that Dinas has a "spiritual" attribute of 93 points.
She bluntly stated that she could sense someone using a spell to spy on her behavior, provided that the snooping time was longer than 10 seconds.
Correspondingly, it should take 10 seconds for a masked man with the strength of the three rings to detect the magic of his mind.
From the moment Li Nuo found him to the time Li Nuo terminated the "Spiritual Vision", it was only five or six seconds.
Based on this inference, Li Nuo believed that there should be no trace of the other party.
Li Nuo faced the silhouette of the mountain range to the south, and while looking vigilantly, he called up the solution that had just arrived.

"Full members of the Metals Branch... Merst... This is an academic battle wizard. Could it be that there is a secret cooperation between the Hottamus Academy of Magic and the Tatis Empire? β
Li Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly, and found that things were not simple.
As for the "sister love plot" mentioned on the deconstructed panel information...
To be honest, Li Nuo didn't care.
It doesn't matter who he's in love with.
Li Nuo didn't bother to spend a lot of energy deconstructing him in order to figure out who his sister was.
Then again, Wizard Merster, aren't you afraid of orthopedics? Uh-huh?
Li Nuo shrugged his shoulders slightly, throwing aside the results of the solution in his mind.
He called out in his heart.
"Dinas?"
"I'm here." The gentle female voice immediately responded.
"Do you know the metal branch of the Hothams Academy of Magic?"
"Uh-huh, yes. Now with you? β
"No, we'll talk about it when we get back."
Li Nuo smiled, he had gradually become accustomed to the days when there was a wet nurse hiding behind him.
Judging from the past few days, he is very satisfied with Dinas.
The other party is not only pleasant-looking, eye-catching, but also answers questions and has a gentle temper.
It's hard not to love such a companion witch...
It seems that the professor named "The Lamp of the Reborn" is quite smart.
TA knows how to approach the male extraordinaire who will blend in with the door through the woman.
TA also knows how to select the girls who best fit his philosophy from among thousands of women, and develop them into his companion witches.
According to Dinas, she was approached by the professor after she came into contact with the magic torch and accepted her as a wizard apprentice. Before that, she was just an ordinary textile worker's descendant.
If you think about it this way, the role of the companion witch is quite similar to the court sorceress in "The Witcher". They all belong to the kind of existence that can be appointed and trusted.
While Leno has a crush on Dinas, he is also guarding against the "Resurrected Lamp".
If the "Resurrected Lamp" really has bad intentions, then Li Nuo doesn't mind taking TA as the first professor to "cut off the horse".
Leno came back to his senses, pulled out his binoculars, and looked at the black dots wriggling in the southern sky.
A deconstruction technique is thrown through the camera.
[System News:]
[You are about to start a deconstruction of the "sturdy metal box".] γ
[It is estimated that it will consume 3 energy points, which can make the completion of deconstruction reach 100%.] γ
[Do you confirm deconstruction?] γ
"Confirm."
[Solve the work! γ
[You have obtained personalized panel information for the "Solid Metal Box":]
Name: Sturdy metal box
[volume] 0.5 cubic meters
γContentsγ50,000 life potions, as well as a number of fillers to prevent the potions from breaking
Li Nuo moved the camera slightly, his gaze swept over the distortions of the wings in the sky, and threw out a series of deconstructions.
"Very good, there are a total of 35 two-wing distortions, all of which are inferior products that have been spawned, and there is no deconstruction of the existence of anomalies in demand. There wasn't much more in the whole team. It seems that there is indeed no "Imperial Fist" mixed in. β
Li Nuo put away the binoculars, turned into a skull, flew close to the ground, and returned the same way.
"In that case, I'm sure I'll eat this batch of goods."
