Chapter 370: Promotion to Intermediate Mage (4805)
Fang Yu had no idea that his upgrade would cause such a big commotion.
Before today, Fang Yu's mental strength was still a little bit away from the 21-point mental strength requirement of a level 7 mage.
But it was just this tiny distance, like a single blow from Bing Xixi. If the mental strength gained from using the Buffy training method daily, it would always seem to be just that little bit short.
Before this, Fang Yu had been using the Buffy training method to strengthen his mental strength.
Fortunately, after reaching level six a month and a half ago, Fang Yu developed a new way to increase his mental power by using the God Model of Aizen Myōō.
After several explorations, Fang Yu discovered that the essence of this method is to connect the ordinary people's faith channel with the god model of Aizen Myo-o, and then respond to the believers' own wishes through the god model of Aizen Myo-o, thereby obtaining the believers' spiritual power sacrifice.
After getting this result, Fang Yu immediately realized that the legendary wizards in the main plane must be using this method to continuously harvest the spiritual power of believers in order to maintain their own existence in the astral realm.
Desire prayer - model response - desire satisfaction - spiritual power feedback constitutes the transformation channel between faith and spiritual power.
However, each temple satisfies the different beliefs of its believers. For example, the Temple of Light satisfies the yearning for light and order of humans in the main plane who have returned to the chaotic and ignorant period since the Great Collapse.
The Temple of Nature satisfies human beings’ awe and gratitude towards nature.
Temple of Life, needless to say, survival is the instinctive will of human beings.
The Temple of War naturally satisfies the desire to defeat the enemy.
As long as the desires of believers are satisfied, they will receive corresponding spiritual feedback.
It doesn’t matter how you satisfy it, as long as you are satisfied.
Most of those who believe in Aigan Myo-o are practitioners who try to calm their desires, avoid suffering from desires, and transform desires into spiritual practice.
One of the reasons why Fang Yu believed that Aizen Myōō's "God Model" was a naturally formed wild model was that this model was too simplistic and crude in its attempt to respond to the operation of believers' faith.
——Let you surrender your weapon and become a great sage directly.
This is completely consistent with the consistent idea of solving problems with large models that have only undergone single training, and is very similar to the way slime mold explores the best path to food.
Efficient, direct, based on first principles, straight to the source, simple, crude and wasteless.
However, due to the lack of an operating environment, this model has never truly responded to its believers, so it cannot receive user feedback and cannot adjust its output strategy.
Fortunately, he never really responded, otherwise Aizen Myo-oh would have changed his name to Zao Xie Myo-oh.
I just kowtowed twice, and then I shuddered. My pants are wet?
Fang Yu also discovered that the smallest units that make up the model of God, the tiny strings that can be regarded as large model parameters or human neural synapses, are actually all "information."
This discovery greatly surprised Fang Yu. You know, no matter what "information" it is, it is essentially the changing state of things, not an entity.
"Information" cannot exist independently of material entities.
For example, the changing states of "1" and "0" that can be understood by computers are information.
We cannot touch or see the data on the hard drive; it is the "state" of the charge in the flash memory.
But this "Model of God" is different. The most basic units that make up the twelve-layer structure of this model are "strings" that are so subtle that they are indistinguishable and constantly changing their state.
And these strings themselves are "information".
It’s just that the “materialization” and “manifestation” of this information is in one’s own sea of consciousness and cannot exist in the real material world.
In other words, the entire "God Model" is the embodiment and manifestation of "information"!
Although Fang Yu didn't know what the principle behind this was, this also solved one of his questions - what is the existence state of the legendary wizard in the astral realm?
Perhaps, this is the final state of these legendary mages after they abandon their bodies and completely enter the astral realm?
If you understand one law, you will understand all laws. Now that you know the principle, and have Aizen Myōo's God Model and Cober's wealth system and wealth magic as references, it is natural to deduce a new structure of the God Model that includes "greed".
These "information" that should not have any impact on the real world are connected to each other, just like human synapses. If different excitation modes are used and new modules are constructed through divine crystallization, the belief module of "greed" can be integrated into the "God Model" of Aizen Myōō!
Previously, Aizen Myōō's divine model was too restrictive. After all, it is impossible for a person to maintain an xx state all the time, and choosing a suitable rechargeable battery always wastes a lot of time.
You can't organize Yinpa every day, right? You can't do anything illegal or criminal, otherwise what will happen if you get reported?
But greed is much more convenient. It is much easier to arouse than some unspeakable desires, has more application scenarios, and is more in line with public order and good customs.
After Fang Yu modified the "God's Model" using the divine crystal, he successfully incorporated the "greed" module.
As long as the "greed" of the believers is satisfied, the corresponding faith can be harvested from the greedy people and converted into spiritual power.
There are many ways to satisfy greed. The real way to maximize the satisfaction of "greed" is not to give money directly, but to give them differentiated opportunities and make them feel that they have obtained "special" luck.
For example, "Your luck is the best today! Invite 1 person and you may withdraw cash!", "Your luck is better than 99.99% of people!"
For example, now.
"Appetitus Emptor!" Fang Yu took out Wilder's doting bottle and said softly. An invisible wave spread out like ripples, quietly brushing across the bodies of every institutional investor.
These fluctuations were gentle and subtle, like sowing a small flame in their hearts, or like just a tempting hint, awakening their deep desire for wealth.
George Philip, the chief operating officer of Bessemer Trust, who was sitting in the front row, frowned slightly, a greedy glint in his eyes.
His fingers, which had been tightly gripping the document, gradually loosened, and his eyes unconsciously drifted to the large screen in the center of the conference room. The numbers on the screen seemed particularly clear at this moment, attracting him to stare at it more and more intently.
Bessemer Trust is the family trust of the Phillips family, currently managing more than $100 billion. Britney Spears' personal property is also managed by this trust company.
Another female investor from Wells Fargo Private Banking next to him also seemed extremely excited. Her slightly parted lips seemed to be muttering silently, as if she was calculating something, and her accelerated heartbeat was revealed in her trembling fingertips.
Her eyes were no longer focused on the podium, but were scanning the field frequently, as if she was thinking about how to ensure she had the advantage.
Bill Hoffman, president of Newin Asset Management, sitting in the back row, also began to find it difficult to conceal his uneasiness.
Newvin Asset Management is a personal asset management fund under TIAA (Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association). Bill Hoffman has been working at this company for 8 years and has always been known for his maturity and prudence.
Originally, this experienced and cautious institutional investor just looked at the information calmly, but as time went on, the pen in his hand trembled slightly, and even a little sweat seeped out of his palm.
He increasingly felt that 404 was a rare investment opportunity. If he missed this opportunity, if 404 adopted the invitation subscription method next time, Newen might not be invited at all.
Bill Hoffman gritted his teeth secretly, a hint of eagerness flashed in his eyes, and greed and impatience appeared on his face that he himself was not aware of.
Then, the atmosphere in the air became tense—
Fang Yu could feel that the atmosphere of the entire venue had quietly changed, and the originally quiet space seemed to be filled with invisible desire.
Several investors who were sitting close to each other exchanged glances, their eyes filled with a hidden rivalry and competition, none of them wanting to fall behind. The desire in their eyes grew stronger, and some couldn't help but lean forward from their seats, as if ready to leap into action at any moment.
Fang Yu saw clearly that these people were caught up in the "shopping mania" mentality and gradually lost control of themselves. Every time a trace of rationality surged in their hearts, it was suppressed by an even stronger sense of "opportunity" the next moment, as if if they didn't act now, this unique opportunity would slip away.
Some people were whispering rapidly, no longer their usual calm whispers, but rather a mixture of anxiety and repression. They were rapidly recording and calculating in their notebooks, and they couldn't wait to review the documents, as if they were afraid of missing some important details.
This feeling of impatience and anxiety continued to intensify, with investors' eyes reddening, breathing rapidly, and fingers gripping their pens turning white. They even stared at Jiang Nanzhen with hooked eyes, eager to write down every word he said.
Finally, a senior investor in the front row stood up first, took out his phone, looked at Jiang Nanzhen with a sharp gaze, and said loudly: "On behalf of Walton Capital, I intend to subscribe to ten shares of Fund No. 2!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the others exploded instantly, standing up almost at the same time, and eagerly expressing their intention to subscribe. The venue seemed to have instantly turned into the New York Stock Exchange trading hall of more than 20 years ago. Everyone was holding up the phone to communicate with customers and shouting out prices, fearing that they would miss this rare opportunity.
This is exactly the effect of "Shopping Mania". This spell can make people fall into the trap of "If you don't buy it now, it will be gone!", "This is the last chance!", "
More than one hundred institutional investors in the market, under the influence of "shopping mania", had red eyes and were scrambling to subscribe to the three newly launched funds.
After all, the total amount of the three funds is only 10 billion Malaysian dollars, while the wealth managed by the institutions sitting here alone is no less than 1 trillion Malaysian dollars!
High-return, low-risk investing endorsed by Robert Capito!
Even without the excitement of being a "shopaholic", it's easy to sell out.
But there is no doubt that under the stimulation of "shopaholics" and the endorsement of BlackRock, the "greed" of these people has been stimulated to the greatest extent.
Fang Yu chuckled, and 12 channels of faith emerged from his sea of consciousness, firmly connecting the 12 most greedy people among them with the twelve nodes of the God model in his sea of consciousness. And these 12 people, under the clever guidance of Jiang Nanzhen, signed a letter of intent with Si Lingsi on the spot.
The moment both parties put pen to paper, the corresponding mental feedback was transmitted to Fang Yu's sea of consciousness through the channel of faith, and then completely transformed into Fang Yu's own mental power.
After harvesting these 12 people, the twelve faith channels were waved again and connected to the second batch of twelve institutional investors.
Almost everyone can contribute far more than ordinary people, even more mentally than Hollywood stars like Leonardo DiCaprio and Charlie Sheen.
Those who achieve great things must have great desires.
People with low desires cannot succeed on Wall Street.
Fang Yu had tried this several times before, but none of them were as efficient as today!
He noticed that today's 12 faith channels coordinated surprisingly smoothly with the nodes of the God Model, indicating that his adjustment of the God Model using the Divine Crystal was completely successful!
Those who can hold a meeting here are indeed greedy capitalists!
When Fang Yu harvested the third batch of "greed" beliefs, finally, the seemingly unbreakable bottleneck of the 21-point mental strength representing the intermediate mage finally showed a sign of loosening.
The change happened suddenly, seemingly without any warning. Fang Yu was only aware of the constant roar in his sea of consciousness.
As his mental strength increased, his sea of consciousness kept vibrating. With a loud bang, the sea of consciousness instantly expanded dozens of times!
Originally, Fang Yu’s sea of consciousness had a diameter of only 1 kilometer at most, but now, its diameter has exceeded 10 kilometers, covering the entire Manhattan!
Before Fang Yu could experience the effect of the expanded sea of consciousness, he felt more than twelve thousand lines of mental power shooting out from his body uncontrollably and projecting into the twelve magic network nodes around Fang Yu.
These twelve magic network nodes, connected by Fang Yu's mental power lines, seemed to have lost their "unobservable" characteristics and were reflected very clearly in Fang Yu's sea of consciousness.
This was the first time Fang Yu saw the appearance of the magic network node so clearly.
No, it cannot be said that he saw it. Even though Fang Yu knew that he had a "clear" understanding of the structure of these twelve magic network nodes, he could not accurately describe their appearance in words.
Because this has exceeded the scope of what can be described by the amount of information in human language, and even surpassed the concept of dimensional space.
So that's how it is! Fang Yu suddenly realized something.
He couldn't describe what it was like.
But at this moment, he clearly felt that the connection between these twelve magic network nodes seemed to turn this space into a different dimension that was on the Blue Planet but not the Blue Planet.
He could see and hear everything that happened at the scene, but even though his "ordinariness" had lost its effect, no one at the scene could see him or have physical contact with him, as if two parallel spaces overlapped each other without disturbing each other.
In this space, there seems to be a layer of constantly flowing gray fog. The real world seen through this fog is translucent, like an illusion.
In other words, he could see the scene inside the Schubert Conference Hall, as well as the scene behind the walls of the Schubert Conference Hall and even outside the Marriott Marquis!
It is somewhat similar to the state of "Rope Hidden Technique", but the principle is completely different.
These twelve magic network nodes ran above, below, left and right of Fang Yu in a mysterious way, like fireflies dancing to a specific melody.
And his body floated off the ground uncontrollably.
Ether realm.
It turns out that this is the etheric world that Yuzu mentioned.
The Etheric Realm is an overlapping plane of the real world, like a shadow of the real world, but different from the cold, lonely and shadowy plane, there is almost no matter here, and everything in the real world is like a projection here.
But this place is different from the astral realm of pure spirit and consciousness. There is basically nothing here, only layers of gray mist.
Huh? Gray mist? Could there be a palace in the distance with a long table inside, and a few figures claiming to be from the Tarot Club sitting around it?
No wonder Yuzu said that "Blink" is not a fourth-level spell and has no spell model. So that's how it is.
After reaching level seven and entering the etheric realm, as long as it is within your sight, you can instantly pass through the etheric realm with just a thought, regardless of whether there are intermediate obstacles in the main material world.
Therefore, Blink is not a spell in the strict sense, but an ability that arcane mages master after reaching level seven.
It's just that this ability also requires magic power.
Would you like to try it?
Huh? Where's the life essence upgrade this time?
As soon as Fang Yu had this question, he felt an overwhelming pressure coming from the sky. As soon as Fang Yu looked up, a beam of light fell from the sky and hit him right on the body!
grass!
Struck by lightning! ?
As a good man for ten generations, it would be fine if you didn't let me return to the Ming Dynasty to be a prince, but you also want to strike me with lightning?
The last time the essence of life was enhanced, it wasn't like a tsunami, but this time it's like a thunderstorm, right?
In a flash, Fang Yu felt that this beam of light did not seem to cause any harm to him.
Fang Yu stretched out his hand, and a ball of flame appeared out of thin air in his hand. With a thought, the ball of flame turned into a ball of water of the same shape. With another thought, this ball of water that was completely inconsistent with fluid mechanics turned into a buzzing ball of thunder.
Primary plastic energy essence.
