If you are on the other side, you become a part of it.
Only on your own boat of the mind can you truly be yourself.
[Reading Requirements] None
You have obtained this book through harmless deconstruction, and the system has stripped all reading requirements.
[Knowledge in the Book]
Common knowledge of Mental Magic, including an introduction to common mental spells.
Five spell blueprints with defects:
Mind Control, Mental Vision, Mind Beacon, Mental Shield, Perception Obstruction.
There are quite a few mental magic spells in the magic book, which makes Noland Lee’s eyes dazzle.
Theoretically, as long as he is willing to consume Energy Points, he can change his profession to a mental wizard on the spot.
But.
Noland Lee opens each spell blueprint and carefully reads the panel information of the spells, discovers a very awkward place.
The completeness of these spell blueprints is only 10% to 25%.
When Noland Lee used Harmless Deconstruction on “Martyrdom Ten Commandments – Outline,” the spell blueprints he obtained were also incomplete. The defects of these death-related spells are usually increased casting consumption, shortened spell duration, or unupgradeable spells.
As for “The Third Shore” book, all the spells on it have a defect that significantly reduces the casting effect.
The higher the completeness of the spell blueprint, the higher the actual casting effect.
To give an example.
“Perception Obstruction.”
Noland Lee is very familiar with the mental magic effect, as it can reduce the target’s perception range, such as limiting the field of view.
A defect-free Level 1 “Perception Obstruction” can reduce the target’s perception range by 10%.
A Level 1 “Perception Obstruction” with only 10% completeness can only reduce the target’s perception range by 1%.
Isn’t that too insignificant?
Noland Lee has to level up the 10% completeness “Perception Obstruction” to
Level 10 in order to be on par with a 100% completeness Level 1 “Perception Obstruction.”
Isn’t the defect of the mental spell blueprint a bit too fatal..
Noland Lee feels a little depressed.
He patiently reads the teaching content of “The Third Shore.”
An hour later, a flash of realization shines in his eyes.
He understands what’s going on now.
He misunderstood the system.
The system didn’t do anything wrong.
The completeness of mental spell blueprints should only be this low and cannot be any higher.
The reason is very simple:
Mental magic manipulates the mind.
Normally, all mental spells will cause 10% to 50% of the same effect on the caster during the casting process.
This is the inherent backlash of mental magic, and ordinary mental wizards can never avoid it.
Because the principle of mental wizards manipulating other people’s minds is to use their own minds as weapons to attack other people’s minds.
This is like stabbing a metal shield with a dagger; the more aggressive the stabbing, the deeper the scratch on the shield. At the same time, the more damage there will be to the blade of the dagger itself.
If the dagger breaks during the stabbing process, it means that the caster has suffered a severe backlash from the failed casting of mental magic.
The attack and defense of the mental realm perfectly illustrate the saying, “the force of action is mutual.”
It seems that the system has reduced the completeness of the mental spell blueprints to below 25%, but actually, it has helped Noland Lee remove the huge cost of casting mental magic!
With the help of the system, Noland Lee can avoid the backlash effect of casting mental magic and cast mental magic carefree!
“Awesome, system. I have wronged you.”
Noland Lee slowly nods his head, and all his depression is swept away.
He scans the spell blueprints in the book again, becoming more and more satisfied with the results of this harmless deconstruction.
He temporarily suppresses the idea of learning mental magic immediately and calls out the third harmless deconstruction result.
“Magic Blueprint: Mind Mask (Item Level 30)” , Completeness 10%
This thing called “Mental Mask” is that mask with a raven’s beak.
The wearer can establish some mental connection with the creator of the mask.
Due to the low completion level of the magic blueprint, the mental mask made by Noland Lee has only one effect:
“Mind Beacon”.
When wearing the mask, the wearer will gain the effect of the “Mind Beacon,” allowing Noland Lee to cast mental magic towards them remotely.
However, because of the low completion level, the effect of the “Mind Beacon” is only 10% of what it would be normally.
If Noland Lee were to use the 10% complete “Perception Obstruction” on the 10% complete “Mind Beacon,” the actual effect of the “Perception Obstruction” would be…
Uh…
10% * 10% = 1% He didn’t miscalculate; it’s only 1%
“Ah, this.”
Noland Lee was taken aback, stunned by the calculation he made:
“…This mask requires over ten types of magic materials to make, and most of these materials are things I’ve never even heard of. I will have to put in a lot of effort to make it. But in the end, the practical effect of using it to cast spells remotely, is only 1% of the normal situation. Why do I even bother creating it?
Is it like I’m just trying to find something to do after eating?”
Noland Lee waved his hand, sweeping the blueprint of the mask aside.
He started reading “The Third Bank of the River of Mind: Volume One” intently, concentrating on learning the newly acquired mental magic.
As Noland Lee immersed himself in reading, Philia led Betty Davis and the other Elemental Wizards onto the steam locomotive returning to the Cat Society Manor.
After entering the manor, Philia gave the order to disperse, telling Betty and the others to rest well as she would immediately report the task to her mentor.
In the manor castle on the third floor, the domed glass greenhouse.
Outside, the metallic dust was flying chaotically in the sky, covering the natural light.
Inside, the magic light source released a gentle glow, scattering the artificial sunnght around.
Butterflies fluttered among the flowers as the artificial water channel flowed with crisp, melodious water.
The noblewoman controlled the water bottle with magic, strolling in the blooming greenhouse garden. She watered the flowers while checking their growth conditions.
“Teacher, I’m back. I found something strange underground, and I wanted to ask for your help to identify it.”
Philia held the Raven Beak Mask and approached the noblewoman.
The noblewoman withdrew her gaze from a nectar-collecting bee and turned her head with a smile of congratulations, but her smile instantly turned rigid, her expression slightly shocked:
“Samuelson’s mental mask? Where did you find this thing?”
“Ah? Teacher, you recognize this! That’s great- It’ll save me from dealing with the Bird Society.” Philia smiled cheerfully, her eyes curving like crescents.
However, as she smiled, she slowly noticed that the atmosphere was somewhat awkward since her teacher’s expression had clearly grown grave.
Philia immediately restrained her smile and asked softly: “Teacher, what’s wrong? Is the mask quite troublesome?”
“Very troublesome.”
The noblewoman took the mask, holding it with her left hand. With her right hand, she swept across her chest, drawing out a vine magic wand with a green sprout.
She bent her right arm, aimed the short wand at the mask, murmured a spell, and projected a colorful light at the mask.
A hazy gray smoke emerged from the mask, conflicting with the colorful light, much like a dark cloud blocking sunlight from reaching the ground. The colorful light lasted for three seconds before dissipating.
The noblewoman sighed heavily:
“I’ve checked it with the ‘Appraisal Technique,’ and indeed, this is Samuelson’s mental mask. Samuelson is a wanted criminal of the Wizard Council, his number is Inferior Mage Level 106.
“He became a lecturer professor under the title of Lord of the Twilight Raven more than 300 years ago. In the past fifty years, he has been involved in at least eighty cases related to the Wizard. His profound knowledge in mental magic allows him to deceive the minds of all wizards below the rank of lecturer professor, so he always escapes from the grasp of wizard enforcers. I never thought such a troublemaker would appear in our territory.” Philia’s face tightened, and her pretty face was filled with seriousness: “Teacher, should we report this to the Wizard Enforcement Department?”
“Yes, definitely, and we need to act quickly.”
The noblewoman snapped her fingers, causing the water bottle in the air to fly back to the storage shelf. She then gestured to Philia and said,Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
“Come with me, Philia. I’ll listen to your task progress while writing a letter to the Wizard Enforcement Department. Did you use the crystal key I gave you?
How does it feel? Doesn’t it feel like a brand-new experience?”
Philia smiled awkwardly and stuck out her tongue slightly, saying,
Uh, teacher, I didn’t use the key you gave me.”
“Oh? How did you get this mask then? The people who have it are protected by Samuelson.”
“Teacher, this is what happened. I used the ‘Elemental Vision Magic Scroll’ that
you gave me…”
The two of them talked while walking, leaving the greenhouse and entering the study along the sunlit corridor..
