Chapter 2611 Polarized Cognition

With the tradition of the mind flayers advocating solidarity and mutual assistance, coupled with the high popularity of the "Princess Soul Sucker" in the city and her extensive network of contacts, it stands to reason that as long as she says hello, countless mind flayers will line up immediately The team came to volunteer to help.

However, the reality is not in line with common sense.

So far, Metatron has not recruited a capable assistant. It can only show that her requirements are too high, and the difficulty of this task is also very high. Mind flayers either have self-knowledge and dare not intervene, or their abilities meet the standard , but couldn't get out to apply.

Joan turned his attention to the task list again, staring at the names of the enemies that Metatron offered a bounty to kill, while searching the memories of Isaac and the Gnostics.

The name Cain made a deep impression on the memory of both Isaac and the Gnostics.

This person is ranked ninth on the blacklist of "Public Enemy of Odis", with a reward of 4,000 honor points, and has a close relationship with Samael, who ranks second.

Just as Samael's depravity manifested itself as a voluntary transformation into an immortal lich, Cain was also influenced by Samael and transformed himself into a vampire with his assistance!

Cain was a well-known strong man in the city of Odes before his death. As a quasi-legendary "spiritual warrior", he still retained his professional ability and most of his physical characteristics after his fall, which is the so-called "blood-sucking and heart-sucking warrior". magic".

In the eyes of the mastermind and the orthodox mind flayers, Cain's fallen appearance is even more disgusting than Samael!

Samael just turned himself into an undead creature, and it can be said that he was willing to degenerate. Cain, a lunatic, not only turned himself into an undead, but also transformed it into his own kind by sucking the blood of creatures, constantly creating More vampire minions.

Mind flayers feed on human brains, but regard blood-sucking as a very barbaric act. They hate and fear people like Cain, lest they themselves become his prey, be sucked dry of blood, and degenerate into his immortality. A slave, driven by Cain against his own will, what's more tragic is that even his soul is defiled, unable to return to his brain.

It is precisely because of this mentality that ordinary citizens like Isaac in the city of Edis neither dare nor have the ability to accept Metatron's commission.

As for the Gnostics, as a "Mind Flayer Arcanist" who is both arcane and psychic, his strength is not much worse than Metatron's. Unlike Isaac and his ilk, he is capable of taking over This pile was commissioned.

The reason why he didn't do that was because the Gnostics knew that Cain had a very close relationship with his former mentor Samael, and he still had a little teacher-student friendship with Samael, so he was unwilling to take the initiative to help Metatron Dealing with the mentor's allies, even though he knew in his heart, this is actually a good opportunity to completely draw a line with Samael and prove his innocence to the mastermind and his compatriots.

Joan can understand Gnostic's entangled mentality. After all, his own mentor has also become a lich that is not tolerated by the world. If someone asked him to hunt down Professor Moriarty, he would refuse.

But understanding belongs to understanding, which does not mean getting too deep into the play.

Qiao An just replaced the Gnostic identity, but did not bear the emotional burden of the Gnostics.

Whether Cain or Samael, they don't have any special status in his eyes. If they meet each other by chance, he doesn't mind killing these two monsters to receive a bounty.

Metatron was quite generous. She was willing to share the 4,000 honor points gained from hunting Cain with her assistants equally. In addition, she offered to manifest "psychic surgery" to help transplant a psychic power that the other party was capable of performing.

In the attachment of the entrusted task, Metatron listed the 1st to 9th-level psychic powers she is good at, and the assistant can choose one of them to ask her to transplant.

With Joan's current level of manifestation, he can cast up to an eighth-level ability, and in Metatron's list of eighth-level abilities, there is exactly one option that excites him the most!

This ability is called "polarized cognition". After the manifestation, it can continue to take effect for a whole day. During this period, the efficiency of learning and thinking is doubled, and any information you see or hear is instantly recalled. The information obtained during the manifestation period is by default permanent. Don't forget, if you want to forget the unpleasant experience, you can also delete the relevant memory by yourself.

In addition to these regular functions, "Polarized Cognition" also comes with a special augmentation mode called "Mind Theater".

While "Polarized Cognition" is in effect, the manifester can activate the "Mind Theater" by spending an extra point of psionic power. In the next minute, the manifester's thinking ability is accelerated to the extreme, so that the external world relatively static.

After starting the "spiritual theater", all creatures in the world outside the body are in a state of stagnation of thinking, and the manifester is also unable to act, but can think normally. If necessary, the scenes experienced in the past can be broken down into frames. Reverse, slow and fast playback at will.

After one minute, the "spiritual theater" ends, the timeline returns to normal, the manifester and others can continue to act, except for the manifester, no one else will remember that their thinking was interrupted for a minute.

On this basis, for every additional point of psionic power added by the manifester, the "spiritual theater" will be extended by one minute.

The regular function of "Polarized Cognition" is to enhance learning and memory ability, and greatly improve the efficiency of analyzing and mastering new spells and abilities. For Joan, this is of inestimable value!

The augmentation mode of "polarized cognition", "spiritual theater", is actually a "quick burst" at the level of thinking, which is very suitable for dealing with emergencies.

For example, when secretly sneaking into a forbidden area and accidentally triggering the warning device, if the correct password cannot be given within ten seconds, the device will explode violently, and it takes at least one minute to crack the password. Can gain enough time for cracking the password.

Especially in the situation where spellcasters confront each other, the "spiritual theater" has more practical value.

The duel between spellcasters always revolves around countering each other, and the premise of countering spells is to successfully identify what spell the opponent is about to release.

In a tense duel, it is very difficult to identify a spell in just three seconds. Even a talented mage like Joan does not have enough time to identify it carefully. Reduces the success rate of countering enemy spells.

Under such circumstances, if you use the "Spiritual Theater" to gain a minute of thinking time out of thin air, you can identify spells calmly and ensure the success of the countermeasures. Wouldn't it be a pleasure?

The more Joan thought about it, the more itchy he became. He really wanted to take this task right away and assist Metatron in hunting down the vampire mind flayer Cain. know" as a reward.

Fortunately, he has not lost his mind and was not dazzled by greed. He soon woke up and realized that he is not yet suitable for dealing with Metatron.
