Chapter 86 The Third Ladder "Mystic Scholar" (Please order first! Please vote for the monthly ticket!)
In the Fisher family's alchemy workshop, Byrne, holding a paper and a pen in his hand, asked Vanessa in a serious tone.
"How are you feeling lately? How are you mastering your new abilities?"
Vanessa nodded and replied respectfully:
"Very good. I feel better than ever before. Although my legs still show no signs of recovery, the improvement in my physical fitness is obvious."
She paused and continued:
"I have also studied the new capabilities of the 'Guard' sequence. Last time you told us about the principles of prefabricated paintings, it also inspired me."
"The coordination, development, and extension of abilities can all greatly increase the upper limit of combat performance."
After that, Vanessa demonstrated her idea of developing the abilities of the "Guard" sequence.
She has to match it with her own summoning spell.
Vanessa is now a mid-level spellcaster, and her spellcasting talent type is "summoning".
At that time, Byrne bought the "Inheritance of Summoning Type Spellcasters" from the Alchemy Council, which included three spells: "Summon Fireflies", "Summon Birds", and "Summon Vines".
The lower origin can memorize one spell model, the upper origin can memorize three spell models, and Vanessa in the middle origin can memorize two spell models.
So she successfully learned and mastered "summoning fireflies" and "summoning birds", but was not very good at summoning plant-type creatures.
Vanessa chanted a spell, and after a short while she summoned fireflies, which danced on the girl's fingertips.
The next moment, Vanessa controlled a firefly to gently hit the back of her hand.
When Byrne saw this scene, he looked enlightened and nodded with a smile.
"I see."
Vanessa let the firefly fly behind her, to a place where it was completely invisible to the naked eye, and then she took out a throwing knife from her boots and threw it high into the air.
The flying knife could have hit her head directly, but it hit Firefly right on the head.
Then, Vanessa repeated the same trick again, but this time she made the firefly fly a hundred meters away.
"Fatal Counterattack" is an extraordinary characteristic that, once attacked, greatly increases the hit rate of the next attack against the source of damage within the attack range.
She suddenly pulled out a flintlock from her waist and fired a bullet.
An astonishing scene appeared. The bullet in the flintlock rifle hit the firefly that was flying and trying to dodge a hundred meters away with extreme accuracy!
Of course, the bullet's momentum did not weaken, but continued to fly out.
If there was a person standing behind the firefly, he would definitely be hit by this bullet.
Byrne couldn't help but smile and praised: "You are very smart, Vanessa, much smarter than Eric and Archibald!"
"Well, in terms of fighting brains, you should be on the same level as Chris."
Vanessa smiled, bowed gracefully, and said, "Thank you for the compliment, sir."
And when Vanessa left the alchemy workshop, Archibald came in.
The tall sixteen-year-old boy's face was flushed and he looked very excited.
"Sir, I, I really want to thank my family for giving me such powerful extraordinary powers!"
"Okay, stop getting excited and tell me."
Byrne smiled and patted his shoulder, then took the paper and pen and said calmly:
"How are you feeling lately? How are you mastering your new abilities?"
Archibald showed confusion on his face, scratched his head and said awkwardly:
"Honestly, I don't really understand. It's just like when I was learning to read in an orphanage. My mind is full of confusion."
"Those words and sentences are so difficult. I know every letter, but when they are put together, I don't understand them at all..."
Byrne's face gradually became serious. Archibald, who had been chattering incessantly, shut up instantly and didn't dare to say another word.
“I didn’t understand the mystery and the supernatural at all, so I kept using it, and kept using it, and kept using it, until my body remembered the trajectory of the wind.”
Byrne raised his eyebrows. What does it mean to make the body remember the trajectory of the wind?
He knew Archibald was an "instinct man," but that was the most incomprehensible type.
Archibald scratched his head and said, "I can't show it in the workshop. It's too small here."
"Okay, let's go out."
Byrne nodded, then he and Archibald came out of the alchemy workshop and saw the young man Eric waiting outside.
Eric lowered his head, and when he heard the door open, he raised his head and looked at the two of them, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
Byrne patted the boy's shoulder calmly and said to him with a smile:
"Give us a minute, Eric, okay?"
"Um."
Eric nodded heavily, looking at Byrne's back with a look full of a child's dependence on his father.
Soon Archibald was demonstrating how he could memorize the path of the wind.
"My spiritual power is too weak to hurt others with the wind, so I can only harness the wind to help myself."
As he spoke, he began to run. A strong wind blew around him and his speed became faster and faster.
Then Archibald jumped high again, and suddenly he jumped more than three meters high.
"Huh, my spiritual energy is almost exhausted." He said with sweat all over his forehead.
Byrne nodded and smiled, "Very good, you have passed. Then you should exercise more often so that your body can remember the trajectory of the wind more."
"Although you are not very smart, your physical instincts are not inferior to Chris's."
"Yes, sir!"
Archibald left happily, and finally it was shy Eric's turn to wait aside.
"How are you feeling lately? How are you mastering your new abilities?"
Byrne repeated himself patiently.
"I feel fine."
Eric thought a lot, and finally mustered up the courage to speak slowly:
"I don't really understand supernatural powers, and there are still many things I haven't figured out. I just think I need to learn more about it."
He paused, lowered his head and said, "Sorry."
Seeing Eric's nervousness and shyness, Byrne couldn't help but think of himself as a child.
He comforted Eric and said with a smile:
"It's okay, Eric. I know you are the kind of person who will study everything carefully and not draw conclusions easily. It really takes more time."
"Um."
Eric nodded, and the tension seemed to relax a little.
Byrne put down his pen and paper and laughed, "In fact, Chris needs to learn from you in terms of being rigorous and careful."
After the three of them left, Byrne returned to the alchemy workshop alone and calmly sat down at his workstation.
He drank coffee mixed with energy potion, organized his notes, and summarized more knowledge about the supernatural field.
It is very necessary to record the Fisher family's various research and insights into supernatural powers.
Later generations do not need extraordinary brains or animal-like instincts, they only need to read books directly to inherit skills from the knowledge.
Byrne felt from the bottom of his heart that this was the meaning of the existence of human books.
After recording the research insights of several people, he started to do another thing.
That is to record the improvement of physical quality and spiritual strength in each stage of each sequence of strength in a relatively systematic and numerical manner.
How much improvement each person will achieve after mastering the power of sequence is actually a very important question.
After many failed experiments, he began to dislike words such as "appropriate amount", "larger", and "approximately", and also disliked vague data. He decided to record them thoroughly with precise data.
There was a flash of blue light in his eyes, and the speed of thinking in his mind increased greatly. Byrne tried to get accurate data by measuring the various images in his memories.
"Assuming that the first step of the Long Stairway to Godhood brings an overall improvement of 10, the improvement obtained by two people with different qualities is also different. The strong will become stronger."
"So, the Gladiator's physical strength is increased by 7.7, and the spiritual strength is increased by 2.3."
"On the contrary, the 'Servant''s' physical strength is increased by 2.3, and its spiritual strength is increased by 7.7."
"As for the Recorder, the physical quality improvement is 3.5, and the spiritual strength is 6.5."
Byrne made an assessment based on the various scenes in his memory, staring at the paper intently, and wrote one after another.
All the details of the Fisher family's journey came to mind, from leaving the cart and the wooden house to having a place in this town.
They fought off the invading jungle natives and became heroes in the eyes of many people.
"Hunter's body is 6.8, and his spirit is 3.2. Guard's body is 6, and his spirit is 4. Gale Guard's body is 5, and his spirit is 5."
The last one is the “Craftsman” on the road of casting, whose physical fitness is improved by 2.9 and spiritual strength is also improved by 7.1.
After summarizing the known first step, Byrne took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and recalled the memories in his mind.
The death of his father, his knighthood, his first visit to the city, his marriage and birth of a child, the disasters caused by the Poseidon Cult, and his control over the port town of Nasir.
All the memories are crystal clear, even the sadness that has been hidden in my mind for a long time.
Afterwards, he began to summarize the data of the second level. After the extraordinary people with sequence power stepped into the second level, their comprehensive quality improved by 25.
The physical fitness of the "Dueler" is improved by as much as 17, while the spiritual strength is only improved by 8.
"Listener" physical 6, spiritual 19, pharmacist physical 9, spiritual 16, killer physical 13, spiritual 12."
After finally recording all the data and organizing it into a draft that could be turned into a book, a smile appeared on Byrne's face.
With detailed data, the Fisher family will be able to study and explore extraordinary powers more systematically in the future.
What we do today will definitely be an important beginning for the Fisher family!
At this moment, his spirituality suddenly boiled over!
And there was no sign of it stopping, the boiling continued. Byrne was stunned for a while, then suddenly ran out of the alchemy workshop to find Irene!
Dozens of minutes later, three core members of the Fisher family arrived at the sacrificial hall on the second underground floor.
Irene took the lead and knelt down to offer the third-level extraordinary material "Moon Shadow Bear Skin", and then the great Lord of the Lost gave spiritual glow again.
Carl descended into the spirit world again. In the newly-entered "star", there existed an old man in black leather clothes who was lost in thought, with deep eyes and dancing flames all around him.
He returned to reality carrying the spiritual glow.
It was a light that was more expansive and worrying than the previous two times. Byrne swallowed his saliva and excitedly reached out his hand to touch the glow.
In an instant, he felt an unprecedented power surging from the depths of his soul!
What a powerful force, enough to rival a strong man who has reached the metamorphic level!
So that’s how it is. No matter whether you take the first or second step of the Stairway to Godhood, you are merely reaching the “outpost”.
Starting from the third step, you will truly reach the foot of this high mountain!
Sequence "Mystic Scholar"!
In addition to the new extraordinary trait "Deconstruction Perspective", five brand new spells also emerged in his mind.
They are "fire control", "mirror deflection", "sound mark", "stand-in" and "teleportation"!
