Chapter 189 The Legend of Psychic Magic

"Odas, how much do you know about spiritual magic?" Xing Tianyu asked the heads watching the fun.

"Psychic magic? That is the most primitive and powerful magic. In the world of Atlantis, psychic magic was once synonymous with magic. Because the gate is not high, you can learn it as long as you have enough mental power and intention. , so it was widely spread and triggered many legendary stories.

The beautiful witch resurrected the dead prince with the kiss of true love and finally achieved a beautiful marriage. The heroic knight cut off the neck of the dragon with the blade of courage. The bard lifted the curse of the winter kingdom with the song of happiness. Such a story Countless.

But that is already a thing of the past, and now spiritual magic has declined. In the world of Atlantis, arcane magic has become the mainstream, and some people practice shadow magic, soul magic, blood magic, chaos magic, or various Strange and weird magical skills named after magic, and spiritual magic is rarely used as a practical magic by people. "

Xing Tianyu was surprised after hearing this for a while, "Why did it decline? Isn't it said that mind magic is the most powerful magic?" Xing Tianyu asked, but he actually already had some guesses.

"The reason for the decline of mind magic is very simple. The power of mind magic comes from emotions. The stronger the emotion, the stronger the power of magic, but the problem is that not everyone can maintain that kind of strong emotion. There is no doubt that this makes mind magic The conditions for using it are extremely harsh, and things often go wrong, and it is difficult to stabilize your emotions. You may be angry at one moment, but calm at the next moment. The so-called most powerful magic is only in theory, because human emotions are indeed There is no way to measure it with a numerical value, so in theory, a person's certain mood can be raised without limit, but in fact, very few people can really reach that level,
In addition, there is another big problem with mind magic, that is, it is easy to fake, because mental power and intention are not easy to test, and the trigger conditions of mind magic are extremely harsh, so many people think that they have learned mind magic, But in fact, he didn't, and some people even learned a spiritual magic, but they couldn't use it in their entire lives.

Therefore, spiritual magic naturally gradually declined and was replaced by more practical and stable magic.

However, spiritual magic has not disappeared. In the post-magic era, some spiritual magic is still circulating, but it often does not produce very good results.

For example, in some parts of the southern kingdom, there is such a tradition that when a couple gets married, they will learn the magic of true love kissing each other, so that when one of the spouses dies, the other can bring it back to life. However, this magic rarely works, and people often fall out of love for each other very quickly after marriage, and may not even love each other before marriage. After the failure, the family members of the spouse pointed out that they had no affection for the spouse at all.

Some northern berserkers will learn the fire of anger. They think that this magic can maximize their fury ability, and they have indeed succeeded. One move is usually very effective at the beginning, and the flaming ragers once became the most terrifying existence on the battlefield. However, these crazy barbarians often cannot control their anger, and eventually they are burned to death one by one by their own anger.

There are also some scholars who will learn the magic of the shield of perseverance. They believe that their strong mind can protect themselves when attacked, regardless of any danger. So resolute and determined.

Of course, the blade of courage is indispensable. There was a time when the knights of the Western Kingdom used the blade of courage to replace the real sword, because they believed that their courage was better than steel. When they dueled each other for the favor of the lady Naturally, there was no problem, and many unnecessary casualties were avoided. However, when they brought this habit to the battlefield, their courageous blades were chopped off by barbarian axes, or smashed against dwarven armor, This resulted in many casualties, and since then few knights have brought the Blade of Courage to battle.

The most widely used magic is the arrow of hatred, probably because hatred is always the easiest to accumulate, and although the arrow of hatred can cause great pain, it can't cause real damage. There will be no legal disputes, so many people who are not capable of fighting like to use this trick against anyone they hate.

Xing Tianyu listened to the introduction of Audas's head and said that it really opened his eyes.

"So is there any technique that can better exert the power of spiritual magic? I used the blade of courage just now, but it didn't work at all. How did the knights of the Western Kingdom do it?"

"Of course there is, although it doesn't always work. Although the wizards in the Eastern Kingdom have gradually given up mind magic and turned to more practical arcane magic, there is still a school of mind magic in the magic academy, and they have achieved Certain results.

Mind magic comes from emotions, so as long as you find a way to control your emotions, you can use this magic more easily.

The first technique is called self-hypnosis, which I am not familiar with, but I know a little about the second technique, which is called memory recall.

The way to use this technique is to recall an event that happened in the past in your mind, bring yourself into it, immerse yourself in a memory of the past, and activate a certain emotion.

In fact, this technique was originally invented by scholars. They often use the method of memory recall to review the knowledge and spells they have learned. If you want to learn it, I can teach you. "

This was a surprise, Xing Tianyu listened carefully to Audas' explanation of memory recall, this technique is not difficult.

Xing Tianyu first chose an event that happened in the past. He was going to test the blade of courage first, so he chose an event that happened when he was in the sixth grade of primary school.

At that time, he was deeply poisoned by martial arts novels, and he was very yearning for things like drawing swords to help each other when he saw injustice. Once he saw two ruffians on the way to school begging a student in the same class for money. At that time, he seemed to have an adrenal gland Su generally rushed up—then was beaten up by those two ruffians.

Although the ending was not very good, he did remember that he was taken aback by his own courage at that time.

He recalled every detail of that memory, perhaps because of the strengthened relationship of the brain, or it may be a side effect of the growth of mental power, he vividly remembered the details of that past.

He seemed to be walking on the street where he went to school when he was young, he seemed to be able to feel the sunshine of that morning and the fragrance of wild flowers by the roadside, he seemed to be able to hear the aroma of bread in the shop by the roadside, he seemed to see those two ruffians again, looking He felt a surge of courage at the sight of their pimple-ridden faces and their dirty leather jackets, and—

"Blade of Courage!" Suddenly, two white light blades appeared in his hand, and Xing Tianyu was overjoyed. These two light blades were made of pure white light. There was no jaw, only two slender blades , held in his hand like white colored glaze.

So light, no weight at all.

"Ah, the white blade of courage, I'm afraid this is the lowest level. The blade of courage usually becomes deeper and deeper as the courage increases. It is divided into five levels according to the color, white, light yellow, golden yellow, orange, and Red, the red blade of courage is considered to be the most powerful blade of courage. It is said that it is invincible and can cut everything. However, few people can achieve it. The golden blade of courage is already very powerful. It can cut steel. The orange blade of courage is strong enough to pierce dragon scales, and the shape of the blade of courage can also be changed at will."

(So ​​that's the case, what about the power of the white blade of courage?) Xing Tianyu slashed out with a sword, easily cutting a courier cardboard box in half.

It's sharp, but what about strength?Then he took out another steel sword that he ordered from the Internet to practice the Elven Sword Dance, cut it out, and then snapped, the blade of courage shattered like glass and disappeared without a trace, but the steel sword Not even a gap.

Well, the power of this white sword is really useless, it can't compare with the real sword at all.

The next thing to experiment is the fire of anger, and Xing Tianyu recalled a memory of what happened in the past again in his mind.

This time, what he recalled was an experience in his high school. For a period of time, he was addicted to a very popular online game. Compared with the boring study life, the world of the game is undoubtedly wonderful and charming. He has collected top-level equipment in the game, and his level can be regarded as the first echelon. For this reason, he almost gave up his high school studies.

Until one day, someone stole his account and stripped away all his characters.

Xing Tianyu still clearly remembers how intense the anger in his heart was when he looked at his character in the computer with only a small trousers top left that morning.

Feeling the trace of anger in his body, Xing Tianyu let out a low growl, ahhhhh! "Fire of anger!" Raising his hand abruptly, a ball of flame suddenly ignited in his right hand.

Looking at the flames, Audas commented again, "Not bad, you are still learning quickly. The fire of anger is the fire of emotions triggered by emotions, so it is not a real flame. Its temperature It is completely determined by the intensity of the caster's emotions. The easiest way to test is to use objects with different ignition points to test whether it can be ignited. The strongest fire of anger can burn everything, and the weakest fire of anger can burn everything. The fire couldn't even light the haystacks.

Xing Tianyu picked up a piece of paper and put it on the flame in his hand. Fortunately, the flame could at least ignite the paper, and then he set it on fire against the chair. However, after baking for more than a minute, the chair burned a little. The sparks didn't rise, and the flame went out by itself.

Miserable, Xing Tianyu suspected that the temperature of the fire might not even be 300 degrees.

Next up is the Fortitude Shield.

Xing Tianyu once again recalled a memory that happened in the past in his mind, which also happened to him when he was a child.

It was when he was in the second year of junior high school. During a football match against his school, in the middle of the match, it began to rain heavily. The heavy rain soon turned into a heavy rain, and the heavy rain turned into hail. They fled the field one by one, and finally only Xing Tianyu and a tall, thin man wearing glasses from the opposite school were left. The two staged a 1V1 football match on the field where the hail was falling. In the end, Xing Tianyu won 9:2. Defeating the opponent by a large margin——Although the match was considered invalid afterwards, Xing Tianyu still clearly remembered the resolute emotion when he was determined to defeat the opponent in the hail.

Fortitude Shield!Around him, a spherical translucent shell-like thing suddenly appeared, glowing with a faint white light, like a huge glass ball that had enveloped his entire body inside.

Xing Tianyu took two steps, and the invisible barrier followed him. He stretched out his hand, and his hand passed through the barrier easily, making him almost feel that the barrier didn't exist at all. However, when Xing Tianyu hit the wall hard, In the past, the fortitude shield produced a huge reaction force, causing him to almost fall after rebounding.

Xing Tianyu suddenly felt that this thing is very magical, it is completely different from the ghost armor, but it feels a bit like an AT force field.

Xing Tianyu continued to hit the surroundings with increasing force. When he rushed towards the wall for the fifth time, the fortitude shield suddenly flashed and disappeared suddenly.

All of a sudden, Xing Tianyu hit his head against the wall, staring at his eyes, excruciating pain, and even nosebleeds. Fortunately, he pulled back at the last moment. Gotta have a concussion.

Lying down on the sofa with his head covered, Xing Tianyu groaned in pain and thought, the strength of this thing is almost the same as that of tempered glass, and it seems to be more flexible than tempered glass. If you say that the defense is still very impressive, that's it. The features that are not there are really terrible.

Audas added, "Generally speaking, under normal circumstances, even if you use memory recall, the power of mind magic is usually very average, because memory is just memory after all, and it can only be triggered when a real event triggers some kind of stimulus. , the emotions will suddenly explode.

For example, if a person dies to protect his lover, then his lover's true love kiss can easily play a role.

If a person witnesses the death of a loved one, a strong anger will erupt in his heart, and those legends and stories related to spiritual magic are often born from this. "

"So this thing is completely dependent on explosive seeds?" Xing Tianyu asked helplessly.

"more or less."
