She lives in Adele's house and it is not appropriate to reveal her address to the intelligence dealer at the moment.
The two then discussed the commission until late at night, when Noita left the tavern.
She walked through the quiet streets and arrived at the Adventurer's Association's offline base in Serkar. The Adventurer's Association was particularly desolate late at night. The few visitors talked in low voices so as not to destroy the deserted atmosphere.
The elf receptionist sits behind the counter, ready to entertain visiting adventurers at any time.
As Noita walked through the door, four pairs of eyes fell on her at the same time.
Two guards, an adventurer, and an elf poster girl.
Among them, the elf's gaze was the most passionate. She looked energetic and not affected by sleepiness at all.
——Elves don’t need to sleep and are born workers.
The guards looked at him with a hint of helplessness—another adventurer ignoring the curfew.
Although helpless, they didn't do anything out of the ordinary. The guards were already accustomed to people ignoring curfew, and whether they could defeat these adventurers who roamed the world all day was another matter. There was no need to seek trouble.
Noita ignored the mercenary and walked up to the elf and said, "Hello, I'm here to register as an adventurer."
"it is good."
Filling out the form handed over by the elves means becoming an adventurer. The registration system of the Adventurer's Association is very flexible. In areas with lax supervision or chaotic situations, their registration review will also become simple in line with the matching mechanism.
After waiting for a while, the elf handed Noita a nameplate that recorded his identity. The nameplate was a magic item that could display the number of commissions in the association and their completion status.
After getting the nameplate, Noita returned to Adele's house.
Come to Gate City and meet with Roshivia.
Her transformed black cat was filled with joy and couldn't contain its pride as it said to Roshivia, "I finished writing three fairy tales today."
Luo Xiweiya was a little surprised, and smiled back: "Can you lend it to me to have a look?"
"Okay!"
Noita quickly wrote out three fairy tales she had heard in her previous life, namely "The Snow Queen", "Peter's Dragon" and "Sleeping Beauty".
Luo Xiweiya took the paper and glanced at it briefly. She was not interested in the matter about dragons. Instead, she pondered the other two fairy tales. From time to time, a vivid expression of deep thought appeared on the puppet's face.
'Ah, magic.'
Luo Xiweiya murmured in her heart.
The first article metaphorically describes the two major characteristics of magic, the law of similarity and the law of contact.
The fragments of the mirror are similar to ice, so they show the characteristics of ice, freezing the boy's heart. Only the hot tears of love containing true feelings can melt the ice.
The third chapter uses supplementary interpretation to pry open an unshakable curse. This is also a common strategy in spell confrontations. If the weak want to pry open the spells of the strong, they need to fight indirectly in order to get a slim chance of victory.
There is no doubt that the witch lady has a certain level of magical skills and has some understanding of magic.
Combined with the gray robe that Noita had worn before, Luo Xiweiya had a guess about her identity.
Is she a junior? If so, is she the mage who purchased the Mencheng course or the mage in Chongtianling?
Luo Xiweiya once studied at the magic academy opened by Chongtianling in Mencheng, and obtained a degree in scarlet robe wizard. In terms of her professional rank, she is a mid-level wizard.
The position of the former is difficult to lock, but the latter can circle the approximate range.
Try it out.
Let me think, what is the most annoying thing for mage apprentices?
Ah, it’s the thesis.
Recalling the past when she was tortured by the thesis, Luo Xiweiya asked lightly, "How is Miss Witch's thesis? Is it in the final stage?"
"The thesis hasn't started yet, and I'm still serving as a technical worker for my supervisor."
The answer without hesitation made Roshivia laugh out loud.
The topic hasn't started yet. That girl is a junior who officially joined the magic academy this year. Now I know why she ordered guns.
At low levels, spells may not be as effective as guns.
Moreover, apprentices who purchase the Mencheng Mage course will not be troubled by the mage at all. After all, they have paid the money and are far away from home, so there is no need for them to be technical laborers for the tutor. As long as they write a good paper and pass the mage's assessment, they will get a certificate.
The witch lady was from Chongtianling, Luo Xiweiya thought with certainty.
Noita's eyes widened as she realized belatedly: "No, how did you know I was going to write a paper?"
"Because I'm also troubled by the thesis." Luo Xiweiya waved her hand, and a red crystal crown appeared on her head, which was the symbol of the mage's identity.
"Senior~"
Noita's eyes rolled around and she called out sweetly. The sweet long sound made Luo Xiweiya tremble.
I was disgusted.
"Please maintain normal voice communication. If you have any requests, just ask directly."
Generally speaking, when someone suddenly calls someone so sweetly, it's either because they are disgusting or they want something. Luo Xiweiya thinks Noita is the latter.
"Senior, could you please discuss with your good sister and let me advance this month's psychic skills?"
"Of course you can... Can you tell me why? Although you've awakened your psychic powers, the path of spiritual brilliance is equally profound. Chongtian Ridge is populated by mages, and magic research is a trend. Learning magic should be much easier, so why do you crave psychic skills?"
"It's convenient," Noita said. "The activation of skills is supposed to be more flexible and faster than most spells. Besides, I'm very interested in psychic powers. Psychics should follow the path of the Mirror Heaven."
"Mages and psykers are different, little girl." Roshivia patted Noita's waist with her tail. "Mages belong to the Path of Spiritual Radiance, while psykers belong to the Path of Mirror Heaven. Mages cast spells with the precision of art, but what are psykers? They cast spells when they're angry, frustrated, or excited, and they can't even control the power of their spells... Do you know what the tower mages call psykers?"
"what?"
"Spell barbarian, spell barbarian."
Noita's beautiful eyes suddenly widened. She seemed to want to refute, but with her financial sponsor in front of her, it was difficult to refute.
In the future, the big core will indeed have little say in the early stages.
Luo Xiweiya added, "I didn't mean to say what you meant. I just thought that since you are in the land of mages, you should just delve into magic. If you are interested, it's fine to follow the path of Mirror Heaven. After all, there is such a thing as psychic magic in the world."
Such is the arrogance of mages. They only see the profession of spellcasters. Even spellcasters will be divided into different levels by them behind their backs.
Seeing Noita's lost look, Roshivia offered a sweet treat: "Your employer has agreed to your request. You can advance a psychic skill. Which one do you want?"
"Basic application skills."
"it is good."
A book materializes.
A Dummies' Guide to Using Psychic Powers
Chapter 26 Haha, there’s a trap!
"The Idiot's Guide to Using Psychic Powers" is a popular psychic textbook that is said to be understandable even to goblins. In the game, it can provide a large amount of psychic experience for low-level psychics, helping them to light up the numerous branch skills of the psychic system.
Noita opened the cover and saw a preface.
"It is said that psychic energy is the power of the mind, bursting forth from the heart and possessing infinite power. I have heard that the thoughts and history of all beings form a magnificent tapestry in the virtual world, which the wise call destiny. The mediocre people of this world are caught in fate without knowing it, following the silk thread and dancing on fire, performing a grand symphony. Only those who have awakened psychic energy can know their place in the upside-down and confusing destiny and play their destined role in the symphony.[1]"
“…There is a voice among the pagoda mages of Chongtianling who believe that the strange and magnificent power of psychic energy is hidden in the thoughts of every life, that is, all living beings are sacred, and the ladder to heaven has long been given by the gods.[2]”
"Psychic power is the power that allows mortals to control their destiny. However, ordinary people never properly understand the power of psychic power. They need correct guidance to understand its application. I deeply agree with this, so I have sought guidance from various experts to compile a textbook to guide those interested in awakening and applying psychic power."
"...I solemnly declare that during the course of my research, I never questioned the good intentions of His Majesty Mengxiangtian in forging the Gate City and Destiny. If you have any objections, please contact Crystal House Publishing."
[1]霜恸·火山石·风语.基于命运存在与考证分析.魔法国度,镜天1473,62(04):107-111.
[2]格林.理性生命全体超自然觉醒的可实施性.秩序书刊,镜天1499,(17):57-59.
After hastily reading the preface, which was not a thesis but better than a thesis, Noita felt a slight headache. She quickly turned to the psychic skills column, took a deep breath to clear away distracting thoughts, and watched quietly.
"Psionics are a power that is innate to us. When we awaken our psychics, we become completely different. We hold power. Beginners need to imagine psychic powers as a part of themselves—they are truly an extension of our limbs. In the initial stages, using instinct to control psychic powers is the most direct and effective way to increase proficiency. First, get familiar with the feeling of manipulating it, and then master it."
"When manipulating psychic energy, we can find that emotions can influence the power of psychic energy, which is particularly obvious when angry. We can use emotions appropriately to amplify psychic energy, but we should not rely too much on emotions, because extreme emotions mean loss of control, and psychics who lose control will often be swallowed by the void..."
[Detecting basic psychic knowledge. Do you want to spend 4000 experience points to comprehend it?]
A prompt popped up in the log, and Noita silently said 'Agree'.
Thus, knowledge flowed out from the source, flowed into Noita's heart, echoed in his mind, and composed music.
Her soul was at peace with the music and filled with knowledge. A feeling of fullness emerged silently, making her squint her eyes in pleasure.
[Comprehension of skills: Mastery of psychic powers, current skill level 3.]
[Psionic Mastery: Your ability to utilize psionic energy increases, allowing you to utilize psionic properties to perform basic manipulations, including but not limited to telekinesis, emotional perception, mental connection, and emotional synchronization. Your psionic reaction speed increases.]
[Current experience: 5900]
A passive skill.
After reading the text, Noita tried to mobilize her spiritual energy. Wisps of light overflowed from her eyes and disappeared with her thoughts.
This skill speeds up the use of psionic energy, allows her to control it more smoothly, and enables her to develop the nature of psionic energy itself to do things.
Although he had gained a lot, Noita looked distressed, as if he was stumped by the book.
She closed the guidebook and said with a wry smile, "It's too profound. I'd better take it home and read it later."
Luo Xiweiya laughed dumbly and said indifferently: "Just don't waste it."
They chatted in the chat room for a while until Noita looked sleepy and then they parted.
After the chat room was disbanded, Noita returned to the Private Gate City, browsed through the guide and memorized its contents before logging off. Before logging off, she left the book in the Private Gate City to prevent any possible positioning spells from tracking her.
It was still dark when she opened her eyes, and Noita was still not sleepy. She hooked her slender index finger, and a compressed sesame candy brick rose from the snack bag and flew into her hand.
She weighed the sugar brick and found that it weighed two kilograms, which was the limit of her current telekinesis.
If she used some skills to assist, she might be able to increase her output several times, but it was a pity that she didn't learn any skills in the field of telekinesis.
The girl crossed her legs and nibbled on snacks like a hamster. The ample sugar content satisfied her.
In just ten minutes, a whole sugar brick was in his stomach, but Noita was still not tired of it and ordered more snacks as he was still not satisfied.
The late-night snack was full of sweetness and joy, and before I knew it, the sky was turning white.
The chariot of the scorching sun passed across the sky, and its light once again illuminated the earth.
Staring at the shining sun, Noita felt a little dizzy. Some strange lights and shadows emerged from her vision and then shattered like morning dew.
She shook her head and walked to the living room on time when the clock struck seven.
After breakfast, Noita told Adele that she was going out of town today and asked her not to prepare lunch and dinner.
Adele understood.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Noita, who had bought two swords on the way, arrived at the suburban jungle. She came to the location of the nest described in the commission, which was closest to Serkar. After investigation, she found only a piece of gradually melting broken walls.
The nest here has been dismantled. Someone has solved the danger first. The remaining parts do not need to be dealt with. In time, they will dissolve into the earth veins and become part of the earth vein circulation.
This is normal. The nest is a resource under the control of Serkar. Civilians are not allowed to mine or destroy it without permission. If any adventurer meddles in other people's affairs, he will be punished and wanted.
Nowadays, because there are too many nests, the activities of Warcraft have seriously affected the lives of the mountain people, and the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, so the restrictions have been relaxed.
The enthusiasm of adventurers when they feel there is profit to be made should not be underestimated.
In a sense, adventurers are low-profile versions of players.
But this made Noita distressed, as it was the part of grabbing tasks that she hated the most.
Noita looked at the commission on the nameplate
She probably thought someone was eyeing a simple subjugation commission, so she chose a nest that was relatively far away from Serkar and quite dangerous to carry out the subjugation commission.
If it was also disposed of, it would mean bad luck and she would not accept any more commissions in the next few days.
Noita's speed was astonishing, covering the forty kilometers to the designated village in just twenty minutes. Along the way, she overtook many convoys traveling to and from Serkar, her high-speed movement causing many to panic. It wasn't until she passed them that the convoys realized it was a false alarm.
After arriving at the village, Noita used different images to ask people in nearby villages about the location of the nest. The manipulation of the instigating heart made the villagers unable to hide their words, and they told her all the information without reservation.
According to the description of the villagers, we learned that the nest is near a swamp in the mountains. It was originally the burial place of wild animals. Some time ago, a dangerous swamp suddenly appeared there, causing the long-dormant corpses to revive and do evil. So far, several people have been attacked and dragged away, and their lives or deaths are unknown.
The villagers were worried and asked Noita to deal with the undead who hurt people.
Noita agreed to their request and then went up the mountain along the animal trail.
The deeper you go into the mountains, the more gloomy the atmosphere becomes. The shadows in the dense forest are worrying, and fear seeps into the hearts of those who come. Even the sunlight seems to be dying.
Noita was silent, floating like a ghost among the trees.
She blended into the atmosphere as if this was her home.
