Master of Spells from Faerun

Chapter 200 Harvesting Psionic Powers
The entire city of Yaskor is wrapped in a powerful psychic barrier. This technology is even close to the legendary [Mystery Lock].

Imrik, who put on the ring, was identified by the psychic barrier the moment he entered the city, and gained the ability to enter and exit freely. Otherwise, he would immediately suffer the effect equivalent to [Dominating Humanity], confusing his mind.

The cities of mind flayers look very different from humans. First of all, the number of mind flayers is extremely rare compared to slaves. Therefore, a large part of this city belongs to the area where slaves work daily. Most of the mind flayers are It has its own tower-like residence, and depending on social status, a tower is usually home to 1 to 20 different mind flayers.

Mind flayers are extremely team-oriented creatures. They are very willing to contribute to the community and spend a lot of time spiritually communicating with their kind. Therefore, the communities where mind flayers live are extremely harmonious and peaceful, with few conflicts. .

Of course, in the city of Yaskol, in addition to mind flayers and slaves, there are also many outsiders. Most of them are strong men who can defeat a mind flayer on their own. Some people open taverns here to entertain Outsiders and some people will run witchcraft shops here, selling various magic equipment and spell scrolls.

Don't think that in this mind flayer city dominated by psychic powers, there is no room for magic. In fact, there are also aliens among the mind flayers who will explore the secrets of arcane magic. Such mind flayers usually not only possess With powerful psychic talents, he also has the ability to cast arcane spells.

That's right, every mind flayer who practices arcane magic is a being with both spiritual and spiritual cultivation. Even the mind flayer's extremely rational brain allows them to practice arcane magic to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Imrik came to the door of a tavern. The owner behind the tavern was a powerful human psion, and it was also the place recommended to him by Twisting.

"Welcome, Mr. Mage, this is really strange. I haven't seen a new face in more than half a year." The owner of the tavern is a handsome young man. He was quite surprised when he saw Imrik.

Imrik sat in front of the bar. Probably because it wasn't time for dinner yet, there was no one in the tavern except the boss.

"Give me a piece of Loth beast barbecue and a glass of red wine, boss." Imrik looked at the menu and said.

The man smiled and took the menu and said, "No problem, but are you sure you don't want to try the specialty here, the white slippery jelly?"

Imrik raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is that?"

The man smiled mysteriously and said, "It's the brain of a gray dwarf. It's completely fresh. Many mind flayers will come to my place to eat it."

After hearing this, Imrik politely refused decisively: "No, I don't eat such messy things."

Seeing Imrik's obvious look of disgust, the man said with pity, "Well, wait a moment."

Then he went into the kitchen and got busy.

Imric was idle and bored, so he looked around and observed. This tavern should have been around for a long time. Many places showed signs of being used for a long time. Many of the tables and chairs here were of tall sizes that were not in line with human habits. It seemed that The boss's most customers may indeed be the mind flayers as he said.

"A human who lives here like a fish in water?" Imrik thought with interest, maybe he could get some information from him.

It didn't take long for the boss to bring the barbecue and wine. The grilled Los meat, which was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, was dripping with attractive fat and exuded a special aroma.

Imrik took out his knife and fork and took a bite. The combination of the chewy lean meat and the fragrant oil exploded in his mouth with an irresistible delicious taste.

"Your cooking skills are really good, boss. Why did you think of opening a tavern in the city of the Mind Flayer? With your skills, you should be more popular in the above world."

The man chuckled lightly, raised his hand and snapped his fingers. Invisible telepathy transferred a wine glass to his hand. He raised the glass and took a sip and said: "As you can see, I am a psychic. I just open a tavern. I’m just passing the time here to pass the time.”

Imrik raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? This tavern must have been open for a long time. I really can't imagine a human being living in a place like this for a long time without any purpose."

As if he had thought of something, the man smiled sweetly and said: "I have opened a tavern here for 13 years. To me, this place has extraordinary meaning."

"My lover and her species live here. She is the most beautiful creature I have ever seen. We fell in love with each other the first time we met her. I live here because of her. "

Imrik asked with some uncertainty: "Your lover is not a human?"

The man shook his head and said with a happy look on his face: "Of course not, there is nothing good about human beings. My lover is a mind flayer, and her beautiful tentacles and slippery skin fascinate me. .”

Looking at the man's exaggerated expression, Imric found it difficult to understand. He even suspected that this man was controlled by the Mind Flayer. How could anyone in this world fall in love with a creature like the Mind Flayer?Sure enough, there are no limits to human sexual proclivities.

"Your taste is really unique." Imrik sighed meaningfully.Then, Imric suddenly thought that the man just now seemed to claim to be a psion. Thinking of one of the purposes of his coming here, he asked.

"You just said you were a psychic? I wonder if I can buy some psychic powers from you in exchange?"

Imric looked at the hesitant man and said, "I can exchange some precious magic equipment with you, and I can also give you my own psychic stone."

The man lowered his head and thought about it, shrugged and said, "Okay, but my charges are not cheap."

Imric smiled slightly and waved his hand, and a variety of magic equipment appeared on the table.

"These magic equipment are all treasures worth tens of thousands of gold coins enchanted with at least five rings of magic, such as this ring."

Imric picked up a magic ring and said: "This is the [Dragon Summoning Ring], with the addition of [Dragon Ally], which can summon any young true dragon among the ten dragons three times a day."

"There is also this one, [Ring of Charm], which stabilizes the sixth-level spell [Admiration], can bring a 2 charm bonus to the holder, and can use [Admiration] once a day."

The man looked at the magic equipment in front of him with gleaming eyes. The equipment in front of him was worth at least 40 gold coins, which was a huge sum of money.

"I am a level 15 psionic warlock. As long as you give me all these equipments, I can give you the psionic stones inscribed with all my psionic powers."

The man thought for a moment and suggested tentatively.

Imric smiled and nodded. The cost of these things to him was no more than [-] gold coins. If it weren't for the cost of materials and casting, he wouldn't even have to spend any money.

The man put away the equipment, then took out dozens of psychic stones from the dimensional bag and handed them to Imric.

"These are all my psychic powers. Don't feel like you're at a disadvantage. There are psychic powers up to the eighth level here. You know, if you go to those mind flayers, they won't teach you for money!"

Imrik put away the psychic stone and said, "By the way, open a room for me. I want the best room."

The man nodded repeatedly, casually took a key and handed it to Imric, then touched the dimensional bag and said in fascination: "With this money, I can buy useful psychic equipment for my baby."

Looking at the man's appearance, Imrik shuddered. When he thought of this man's tender appearance with a mind flayer, he felt that his sanity was going crazy.

Back in the room, Imric couldn't wait to take out the psychic stone and analyze it. Psychic powers were not like spell models. He had to spend a lot of time replicating these psychic powers one by one.

It can be said to be extremely time-consuming and repetitive work.
-
Ten days later, Imrik in the room finally completed his work. In front of him were a large number of psychic powers from level one to level eight.

They are:
8th level psionic powers: shared attributes, shadow body, merging, polarized cognition, material reshaping, war spirit

Level 7 psionic powers: Destiny's child, scourge of life, teleportation redirection, insight, psionic theft, psionic reversal
Level 6 psionic powers: induced concentration, wound closure, psychic control, anti-psionic field, greater precognition
5th level psionic powers: suppress energy, immutability, psi resistance, psionic resurrection, shatter mind barrier

Level 4 psychic powers: freedom of movement, crystal thorns, metamorphosis, psychic link, mind sweep, personality parasitism, energy absorption, realm assimilation, shadow lizard
Level 3 psionic powers: Greater Concealment Membrane, Spatial Slip, Dissolve Ectoplasm, Disable Psionics, Remove Invisibility, Malicious Damage Transfer, Mental Trap

Level 2 psionic powers: Concealment Membrane, Dark Claws, Phase Swap, Energy Suppression, Feat Drain, Inescapable
Level 1 psychic powers: control of fire, psychic stab, psychic link, my light, precognition, defensive precognition
There are many extremely powerful psychic powers that can cause effects that cannot be achieved by spells. For example, the eighth-level power [Shared Attribute] can make one of the attributes of the recipient the same as the caster.

In other words, with this spell, Imrik can bestow his super high intelligence attributes on others, or bestow his weak strength on warrior-type enemies, both offensively and defensively.

There is also [Destiny Child], which is an extremely powerful psychic ability. It is similar to the effect of legendary resistance, but weaker than it. When you fail a judgment spell, you can trigger this psychic power immediately and judge again. , specializing in restraining all kinds of instant death spells and control spells.

There are many similar psychic powers. Compared with magic, psychic power is another broad and profound field. Many things that magic cannot do, psychic powers can do easily.
