Chapter 1114: Mind Acceleration

Another interesting feature of the Light Spear is that its power is closely related to the intensity of the light in the environment: it can be used for maximum damage in sunlight, but it is weakened in dark areas and cannot be used in the darkness without a trace of light. Roland immediately came up with a trick: if you need to unleash the "Light Gun" in the dark, it is best to fire a "Daylight Technique" to change the ambient brightness first.

The second 6-ring offensive magic is "Ice Bloom". After casting, the water in the soil at the designated location condenses into countless ice spikes and sprays out of the ground, throwing crushed ice, sand, and dust into the sky along with enemies.

This visually gorgeous "Ice Bloom" can only be cast on the surface of the ground containing water, and half of the damage caused is the cold attribute, and in general, the killing range and lethality are comparable to the Flame Strike, and the reason why it is one step higher than the Flame Strike is that it has two major advantages.

First of all, the "Ice Bloom" attack range is farther than that of the Flame Strike, which is equivalent to four times that of the latter; Secondly, "Ice Bloom" is a "change system" spell, which does not rely on the spell's own energy, but uses spells to change the landscape and cause physical damage to the enemy, so "Ice Bloom" ignores spell resistance - this is especially valuable when dealing with enemies with super high magic resistance such as "Golem"!

After checking the newly learned 6-ring magic technique, Roland opened the "Domain" page again.

After reaching level 13, Roland added a 5-ring realm spell slot. Thanks to his Spontaneous Spell ability, he can choose from the Magical, Destiny, and Temporal realms to match the 5-ring realm spell slot.

The 5-ring spell in the magic field is "Spell Resistance", which can give the recipient 12+ caster level spell resistance. With the divine power specialty "Divine Strength", Roland can temporarily increase the casting level to 34, and then cast the "Magic Resistance" to obtain up to 46 magic resistance, which is basically a "humanoid golem", charging against 108,000 fireballs without changing color!

The 5-ring spell in the realm of fate is "Advanced Defeat the Enemy First". 1 Ring "Defeat the Enemy First" can greatly increase the hit rate of the next attack, and the "Advanced Defeat the Enemy First" can go one step further on this basis, and the next few attacks can get a near-sure effect, and the maximum number of rounds will last, depending on how high the cast level is.

"Spell Resistance" and "Advanced Defeat" are both powerful and useful spells, but they are slightly inferior to the Tier 5 ability "First Strike" of the Time Spirit.

"Preemptive" is an ability that works much like Tamara's signature arcane "Burst of Speed," forcibly distorting the normal flow of time in a small area, giving the enemy an absolute head start before they make a move—and it's no exaggeration to say that the mind moves as fast as you can!

During the "preemptive strike" launch, from the subjective perspective of the Manifest, all the people and things around them are in a static state, after which the timeline returns to normal, and the people and things around them will continue their actions in chronological order.

Although the "preemptive strike" can only win a few seconds, there is no doubt that this short few seconds at the critical moment is enough to decide life and death!

In order to test how the "preemptive strike" works, Roland placed a magic mirror opposite the bed, a small curiosity that acts as a camera in the world of Vares, which can record the scene on the other side of the mirror.

Roland stood facing the magic mirror, first threw the emblem in his hand high, and then the thought moved to show "preemptive", there was a roar in his mind, and the world in front of him suddenly became stagnant - the holy emblem was suspended in the air and stood still, as if it was driven in mid-air by an invisible nail.

Roland observed for two seconds, then raised his hand to grab the emblem, his body shook slightly, and the outside world seemed to return to normal.

In these short three seconds, Roland felt that everything around him was very abnormal except for himself. But looking at the images recorded by the magic mirror, he realized that it was actually him who was abnormal.

The image in the mirror shows that the emblem accelerated back after being thrown up, and there was no sign of stagnation during this period, while Roland, who thought he was calm, looked like a manic patient in the mirror, and his gestures were so fast that they exceeded the limits of human vision - I saw that the shoulders of the person in the mirror moved slightly, and the falling emblem disappeared out of thin air, and the next moment the emblem appeared in his hand, and the process in the middle was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly!

"It turns out that 'preemptive strike' is a kind of psychological acceleration similar to self-hypnosis......" Roland suddenly realized: after showing this ability, the objective time flow rate of the external real world has not changed, what is really distorted is his own subjective psychological time, and the acceleration of psychological time has caused his physical reaction speed to increase to a terrifying situation, in the eyes of people in the outside world, his every move is incredibly fast, so that the three seconds in his self-perception are only an imperceptible moment in reality.

"It's no wonder that after showing the 'preemptive strike', I feel very tired physically, and forcibly improving the explosive power in a short period of time consumes too much physical energy, if it is not for the spiritual energy to make up for the physical consumption and protect the flesh and bones, even with the physique of an extraordinary professional, I can't withstand this super acceleration in just a few seconds, and then I will definitely toss the body to pieces......" Roland wiped his sweat, and suddenly had a whim: If he returns to Earth one day and uses this trick "preemptively" in public, I am afraid that he will be regarded by the children as a wild "Flash" or "Quicksilver" 。

……

At seven o'clock the next morning, Roland accompanied his father and the mother and daughter of Yevgenia and Lyudmila to have breakfast at the "Friendship Palace". Lyudmila also tried to hide today's treasure hunt from the elders, and Roland said it generously at the dinner table, which caused Evgenia to complain for a while, and Rudolph also felt that with his current status, he left a bunch of work in the cabinet and the central bank to explore some treasures, which was inevitably suspected of not doing his job.

"The kingdom of Kolas is not rich, but it is not so poor that the prince goes on a treasure hunt to subsidize the finances." Rudolph half-jokingly expressed to his son that he did not support the matter.

"Your Majesty, you probably forgot that today is the New Year's holiday, and the cabinet and the central bank have nothing to do in the next two weeks except for the occasional duty, and all official business is postponed until the end of the year as usual, and Roland has worked hard all year long, you should also give him a few days off to go out and relax." Lyudmila couldn't help but defend her boyfriend.

"It makes sense, but wouldn't it be too risky to go to the bottom of the lake for a vacation?" Rudolph asked his son with a smile.

"It's never more dangerous than Tiamat's underground temple, misty swamps, war-scourge fortresses, troll islands, and dragon's eyes, although Roland's identity is different from before, his adventurous personality hasn't changed, and it's a mental torture to lock up a wild boy like him in an office all day long, not to mention that he can't stand it, I feel strange and distressed in my eyes......" Lyudmila whispered to defend her boyfriend.
