Looking at the attribute panel, Mo Lan pondered for a moment and then clicked three times on intelligence.
Intelligence +3!
The moment his intelligence reached fifteen, Mo Lan felt his head go cold, and he seemed to have entered a deeper world.
In this world, the air becomes colorful, with restless red, warm blue, vibrant green, heavy yellow, etc. permeating the entire world.
And here, perhaps because he was in the forest, what Mo Lan felt the most was the vibrant green.
“Is this the world of elements?”
Mo Lan returned to the house, lay down, and felt this charming world.
At this moment, he seemed to feel that his perception could be transformed into tentacles. No, it should be an extension of his perception. His mental strength was enough to be transformed into tentacles, touching this real world.
When his mental power touched the ink cartridge, a sense of substance came into Mo Lan's mind, and it seemed that he could try to push it.
Unfortunately, the ink cartridge was too heavy, and no matter how hard Mo Lan used his mental strength, he couldn't move it at all.
Soon, Mo Lan's attention shifted from the ink cartridge to the outside world, and his mental power spread out from his head, first spreading towards the farthest place.
Five meters, this is Mo Lan's current limit, and anything that happens within a range of five meters is reflected in Mo Lan's mind. There is no blind spot, even behind the wall.
After adjusting to this wonderful perspective, Mo Lan began to carefully sense the various elements in the air.
"Is this the fire element?"
Mo Lan touched it lightly with his mental power, and was surprised to find that he could already touch and move the elemental energy.
"How about...trying the fireball technique?"
A bold idea appeared in Mo Lan's mind. His thoughts followed his heart, and under the guidance of his mental power, the element of fire continued to enter his mind.
Scattered fire elements filled his mind. Mo Lan clumsily used his mental power to press the fire elements together, trying to shape them into a ball to form the first spell node.
Under the pressure of mental power, the fire elements condensed together and gradually turned into a sphere. Looking at the gradually taking shape of the spell node, Mo Lan smiled and his mind relaxed. The tragedy happened in an instant.
boom!
There was an explosion in his head, and from the perspective of his soul, Mo Lan looked at his own corpse expressionlessly.
At this time, blood began to flow from the eyes, nose, mouth, and ears of the corpse. Bleeding from all seven orifices was the only thing that could happen.
Obviously, Mo Lan successfully detonated a small bomb in his mind, blowing his brain into a mess.
resurrection!
LV4: 326/1000 → LV4: 0/1000
"Come again."
Mo Lan lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and immersed himself in his mind.
The mental power captured the fire element bit by bit, and the fire element filled his mind. Mo Lan began to compress it into shape with his mental power.
However, at this moment a question suddenly popped up in his mind.
“Wait, why am I experimenting in my own head?
Obviously, my mental power can extend outside my body."
Mo Lan fell into silence, and after taking a final look at the attribute panel he regained his confidence.
Intelligence: 15
Ah, very good.
He dispersed the fire element in his mind and began to condense it again one meter away.
After a while, enough fire elements slowly turned into a sphere under the compression of mental power, and then were compressed to the appropriate size .
At this time, the ink box in Mo Lan's mind was spinning rapidly. Mo Lan, concentrating fully, carefully opened a tiny hole on the first spell node.
The fire element shot out and formed a , an element line. The fire element line continued to extend and was cut off at an appropriate distance. Under the pressure of mental power, a new spell node began to take shape.
But suddenly, the first spell node lost too much fire element and the node collapsed.
puff!
A small flame appeared out of nowhere and then disappeared.
"The first node should have more fire elements, then."
Mo Lan was not discouraged. He started again after a little calculation.
This time, Mo Lan condensed five times the fire element before starting to compress the spell nodes.
After a while, a huge spell node took shape, the element lines extended, and the fire element flowed. After a while, the second spell node took shape, the fire element reached a balance, and the two spell nodes became the same size.
The next moment, the elemental line extended out from the second spell node, but at this time the first spell node and the second spell node clashed, and the node collapsed.
puff!
A ball of flame appeared and disappeared, another failure.
Continue the experiment.
fail!
fail!
fail!
fail!
After a series of failures, another experiment begins.
As habit becomes second nature, the first spell node and the second spell node quickly took shape, and then the third spell node quickly appeared. Little by little, slowly, as Mo Lan expected, the three spell nodes reached a balance.
“If I’m not mistaken, the function of these first three spell nodes should be to attract and condense elemental power.
The previous Fireball Technique was like this, and the Wind Blade Technique also has a similar structure."
Sure enough, the three spell nodes emitted a gravitational force, and the fire elements in the environment were constantly attracted and quickly filled into the three spell nodes.
Seeing this scene, Mo Lan smiled and immediately began to construct the next spell node to guide the saturated fire element out. However, before Mo Lan could guide it, the three spell nodes collapsed directly and a ball of fire appeared out of thin air.
"Come again."
Mo Lan continued to practice, but this time was different from before. Although he had always failed before, he could feel progress every time and was getting closer to success.
But it’s different now. The gap is too big now, and the difficulty is so great that even if Mo Lan’s mental power doubled, it would just be a drop in the bucket.
"how so?"
Mo Lan fell silent about this situation.
The attracted fire elements are very active. The more there are, the more active they are. When compressed, they become even more manic.
"No, I can't even compress it. With the increase of fire elements, the difficulty of compressing it into spell nodes is almost increasing exponentially.
There is simply no way I can build spell models while still condensing them into spell nodes.
Even if your mental strength is ten times stronger, you can't do this."
“Try other elements.”
Mo Lan said undauntedly that he would do as he said. Despite his fatigue, Mo Lan began to condense the gentlest water element. After condensing enough, he began to compress it directly.
There was no attempt to build a spell model, just pure aggregation and then compression.
In the early stage, Mo Lan completed the compression very easily, but as the amount of water elements increased, the water elements suddenly became violent and failed.
Mo Lan tried the wood element and the earth element one by one, but the results were the same. He failed repeatedly, which gave him an idea.
"The elemental forces in nature are inherently very active, regardless of the type of element.
Any elemental energy will become violent once it is condensed to a certain amount, which is probably part of the source of the spell's lethality."
This speculation made Mo Lan fall into silence.
“So this direction is wrong?”
In silence, Mo Lan asked himself. He didn't say it out loud, but he already had the answer in his heart.
Yes, this direction is wrong, at least it is not achievable at the moment.
The experiment...failed!
