"What was that just now?" After the surroundings returned to normal, Penistan couldn't help but feel the shock and curiosity in his heart, and asked Leo and Sylvia.
Leo did not give an answer, but reminded: "If I were you, I would care about my eyes first."
Petunia didn't understand Leo's meaning at first, but she quickly reacted, cut off the psionic energy injected into her eyes, and stopped using that psionic technique, almost when her vision returned to normal. The stinging pain came out of the eyes, and was accompanied by a strong swelling, as if the eyeballs were about to burst the whole brain.
This unprecedented painful sensation made her tears, and she could not suppress a groan, and her painful groan also alarmed the others in the lounge. For a while, Leo and the others became everyone's attention. Object.
Leo ignored the gazes of the people around him, took out a bottle of wizard's potion, and reached Penny's side, poured a few drops into her eyes, let her take the rest, and then took out a scarf for her Wrapped his eyes and said, "You'd better wear a scarf in these two days and don't open your eyes to see things."
"Teacher, will my eyes be blind?" Petunia, who felt a little more comfortable, couldn't help but worry and asked.
"No! But this is a lesson for you. Although you have extraordinary talents in psionics, don't think that if you are gifted, you will not encounter danger, especially when you use those psionic skills with uncertain effects." Leo said with a blank expression: "Remember what I said when I taught you this kind of vision skills?"
Penny said with some grievances: "You said that this technique was modified from other powers, and you don’t know the effects and side effects. It’s best to be careful when you use it, and you must always pay attention to whether your body can withstand it. Reach the limit."
Leo nodded and said, "Very well, you can remember the best. I believe you will never forget or ignore it in the future."
At this time, the director of the lounge came over and asked: "Are there any questions?" Then, he looked at Petunia whose eyes were covered in gauze, and added: "Do you need to call a doctor? ?"
"It's okay, some minor problems." Sylvia responded, indicating that the supervisor can leave.
When Leo sat back next to him, Sylvia asked in confirmation: "What happened just now? We seem to have entered another world. It feels the same as the shadow world, but not completely. Same."
"That should be a fragment of the subspace plane." Leo explained: "The religion of the church knights has made the fragments of the subspace plane into a kind of artifact. After this kind of artifact is displayed, it will produce an overlap with the real world. Space, just because the power of the subspace plane fragment itself or the power of the who made it, will produce different effects. For example, the effect of the subspace plane fragment just now should be time erosion, which can be seen by people in the fragments. The world after the erosion of time."
"Which religion are the church knights?" Sylvia heard something different and confirmed: "That is to say, each of the church knights just now has an artifact made from fragments of the subspace plane? "
Leo nodded and said, "I can feel that they have a similar artifact on their bodies. This artifact should be the standard equipment for this kind of church knight." He said, he thought about it, and said: "If I If you guessed it right, they should be the knights of the correctional institution that the church of this world specializes in dealing with heretics, similar to the adjudicator you served in the Orthodox Court back then."
Sylvia retorted: "It's not the same. When I was the adjudicator, the Orthodox court no longer focused on dealing with heresy. Otherwise, I must be the kind of heresy to be resolved. The main target of the adjudicator at the time was Those who use extraordinary power to pose a threat to the ordinary world."
Leo didn't argue with him, but just smiled and asked, "You are interested in that kind of artifact?"
"Aren't you interested?" Sylvia gave Leo a white look and asked back.
"I'm also interested, but it's not easy to do it." Leo nodded, admitting that he was indeed a little moved, but he dispelled the idea, shook his head, and said: "Since it is made by the gods behind the churches The artifacts made must have left the mark of the gods on them, and some protective measures have been made to prevent others from snatching them. If we rush to them, it is likely to cause unnecessary trouble. Now the affairs of the Moxi Theater are already Arouse enough turmoil, and if the trouble continues, it will probably be difficult for us to leave here smoothly."
After hearing Leo's words, Sylvia also had to admit that Leo was right, so she didn't even think about getting a magical tool to play with.
In the next two days, Leiou and the three people all spent in the hotel, and none of them went out. Even if they needed to buy something, they all let the hotel waiter buy it on their behalf.
In this regard, the hotel side did not have any doubts, because the foreign tourists and businessmen living in the entire hotel also spent the past few days in this way, and they also complained about this, and the hotel spent most of their time comforting. The emotions of these guests who are full of complaining emotions are naturally happy to see the results of those who do not cause trouble, so how can they have any bad doubts.
The reason for this situation is mainly because after Leo and the others watched the drama of anomalous church knights catching heretics for free, a dozen similar battles broke out in Nice that day, although in the end those heretics were targeted. They were all arrested, but the matter was not complete. Several of the battles exceeded the protection limit of the magical weapon and directly affected the normal world outside, causing a large number of casualties. What is more serious is the news that the church has arrested heretics. Was leaked.
As the hub of the new world, the city of Nice is opposed by the number of heretics hidden in the city, even more than the number of churches. In the face of being attacked, they will naturally not wait to die, so the heresy starts at night. Fought back against the church.
The counterattack of these heretical forces is not as scrupulous about the people around as the church, so at night, the number of people affected by the fighting will increase, and finally the city council will issue martial law in the first place, and all the city guard troops will be stationed in the city. , Began to assist the church to eliminate heretics.
Under the effect of martial law, basically all people without local identities were temporarily confined in temporary residences, and those who did not have temporary residences were also unifiedly arranged in charities established by churches and city councils. Don’t worry about food and housing.
Although the whole process will definitely encounter some obstacles, in the face of the obstacles encountered, the executors dealt with them with reckless and severe measures. For example, there is a country where a senior official is unwilling to accept an injunction and intends to leave forcibly. Its security The personnel clashed with the city police, and the city guard immediately felt that the high-ranking official and his entourage were killed without hesitation, without considering whether it would cause some international disputes in the future.
It is also because of the emergence of examples similar to foreign high-ranking officials that everyone realizes that the injunction order in Nice is not a joke, but a very serious matter, so no matter how dissatisfied, they will honestly follow it. Injunction to do it.
During the two days of confinement, four groups of people came to the hotel to investigate the identities of the guests one by one. Two groups were supposed to be from the church, one was from the city council, and the other was just ordinary police. From the difference of investigative manpower, it is not difficult to see that the intensity of the investigation is gradually weakening. Even the last batch of police leaders left to calm the mood of hotel guests. They made it clear that the prohibition order would be lifted within these two days and promised all guests. All the ferry tickets or bus tickets when leaving are paid by the city council, and a small gift of great value will be given to everyone when leaving, which is regarded as compensation.
In the past two days, Leo did not leave the hotel, but stayed in the hotel, using the spiritual network to understand what is happening in the city, and at the same time trying the improved effect of the spiritual network.
As a psionic skill most often used by psionicists, the spiritual net is also the skill most frequently used by Leo. Even his use of the spiritual net has become a daily habit, but for various reasons, his spiritual net exerts its effect. It's not very good, and even at certain times it is disturbed to be unusable, so he has been constantly trying to improve the spiritual network.
Although Leo has improved a lot of psionic skills, witchcraft, and other extraordinary powers, he still feels that this is the most difficult of all his improved abilities to improve the extraordinary power of the improvement of the spiritual network.
This is mainly because the psionic skills of the spiritual network have been improved to the extreme by the psionicists of various cosmic civilizations. It is one of the most mature types of psionic skills, and later ones want to improve it on this basis. , It is almost equivalent to challenging the knowledge and wisdom of dozens of Omega-level higher life forms in terms of psychic energy.
Leo was the same as other psionicists at the beginning, trying to improve and upgrade the spiritual net skills through the power and knowledge of psychic powers, but the final effect was not only unable to compare with the existing spiritual nets, but even caused some problems. Uncontrollable situations, such as unintentionally connecting the spirits of several strangers through the spiritual network, allowing them to experience the feeling of a spiritual ascent, which naturally causes them to fall into a coma afterwards.
After several unsuccessful attempts, Leo knew that it would be impossible to improve the spiritual network solely with the knowledge of psionic skills, and other non-psionic forces should be involved.
Therefore, Leo tried to integrate the various forces in his body to improve the spiritual network. Although the result of the first attempt was not as good as expected, it also pointed out a direction.
It was not until these two days that he had completed the improvement of the spirit net, and he took advantage of the opportunity of the Nice City ban to test the effect of the improved spirit net.
The result was much better than Leo expected. After improvement, the psychic network that combines different powers has not only expanded dozens of hundreds of times than before, it can easily cover the entire city of Nice, and even own it. Different attack and defense capabilities feel like a huge psionic field that can change its function at will.
In addition, the spiritual network's evasion of other investigative powers has become very strong, such as the church's magical enclave. As long as Leo does not actively trigger the core parts of these powers, basically these forces cannot detect the penetration of the spiritual network. .
Because of this, compared to the church knights and city guards who are looking for heretics on the streets outside, Leo, the foreigner staying in the hotel, is the one who knows all the hidden heretics in this city best.
However, this improved spiritual network is not perfect, and the flaws of this spiritual network are also very large, because it needs to balance the psychic energy and other powers so that the two are in a state of mutual stimulation and mutual assistance, so Leo You need to invest in spiritual consciousness far beyond any other kind of psychic skill. Once you use this spiritual net, you can't use other abilities like when you use a normal spiritual net, and you can't even move.
In addition, this kind of spiritual net consumes a lot of power. The psychic power required to use the improved spiritual network is enough to use a dozen thunder guns. If the psychic power is like this, let alone other powers, according to Leo Based on the current strength, he can only use it for 20 minutes at most before he needs to stop and wait for the strength to recover.
Although the shortcomings are so obvious, Leo still feels that this improvement is very successful, and he even found a new ability adjustment plan because of this, which is to allow psionic energy to act as an intermediate bridge and combine with other forces in the body to form a more powerful and extraordinary force. , UU reading www.uukanshu.com believes that it won’t take long before he will be able to integrate the various gods marks, abyssal powers, outer gods powers, etc. in his body into a whole, instead of separate powers like now. Existing and fighting separately, even if his overall strength is not improved at that time, his combat power can definitely be greatly enhanced.
As for the issue of power consumption, Leo is not worried about this, because he is now a seventh-level psionicist. When he becomes a higher-level psionicist, the problem of power consumption will naturally decrease, even if he is Being able to evolve to the level of Omega-class higher beings, then there will be no issues such as power consumption.
Sylvia also knew what Leo was working on these past two days. She was also curious about Leo’s way of improving his ability, and asked Leo for the details, but she didn’t copy this method completely, because This method does not apply to her. She is more interested in Leo's control of various power balance techniques, which can help her separate the power of the witch itself from the power of the dragon's blood.
By mastering her power with a more subtle approach, Sylvia found that the power in her body was not just the power inspired by the blood of the abyssal dragon as she thought, but was actually a fusion of two powers. Before this, she and Leo had always thought that this was just a kind of power.
