Chu Hao exchanged for a total of four Level-0 cantrips: Magician's Hand, Forbidden Light, Repair, Message, and two Level-1 spells: Charm Person and Panic. He spent a total of 2000 points, leaving him with 500 points left.
The effects of Magician's Hand were already mentioned. Forbidden Light could cause all light within a ten-meter radius to disappear for five to ten seconds. Repair could repair a small object weighing no more than five kilograms. There was also Message, which could directly contact a creature within a ten-meter radius without speaking. It was similar to using one's mind to communicate with the other party. These were four Level-0 cantrips, which were very useful in certain situations.
Then there were two Level-1 spells, Charm Person, which could make a human friendly or even intimate with the spellcaster for half an hour. Fear, on the other hand, could frighten no more than five creatures for five to ten seconds. This fear could even make them run away.
Among the six spells, none of them were offensive spells. Even the Fear Spell was at most a spell with a disruptive nature. It had nothing to do with attacking. In fact, when Chu Hao had read the DND rule book, he had always thought that the most useful thing about the mages in DND was their almost perfect adaptability, and not their turret-like attack power. If he exchanged all his spells for offensive spells, he would really be an idiot.
For example, would the Level-1 spell Magic Missile be more powerful than a heavy machine gun? For example, would the Level-3 spell Fireball be more powerful than a high-explosive grenade? If it was in the magical world, then there would be no way. After all, it was impossible to be unarmed, right? But this was the real world. Since there were so many technological weapons, why should he exchange for some weak offensive spells? If that was the case, it would be better to exchange for spells that could not be achieved by technology. For example, the six spells that he exchanged for.
After the three of them exchanged for the attributes they wanted, the next step was to familiarize themselves with their own abilities. This was needless to say. This lasted until the eighth day after the three of them returned to the Creator Space. The three of them had a preliminary understanding and familiarity with their own abilities. Basically, they were no longer blind. At this time, the main problem was basically focused on the next horror movie.
"After returning from the movie world, we can safely stay in the Creator Space for ten days. Whether it's for training, experiments, or strengthening of attributes, we only have ten days. Of course, we can exchange for time to return to the real world or time to go to the movie world, but the price is very expensive. It's not something we can afford now."
Still in Ares' residence, the three of them sat together to discuss the next movie world. This was the topic that Chu Hao mentioned just now.
Hearing this, J said with deep eyes, "This is the first time I've returned to the Creator Space. Let's not talk about the next movie, but after the next movie is over, I have to exchange for time to return to the real world. I don't feel at ease there. I have to go back and take a look and solve some things."
Ares also nodded and said, "I have something equally important to solve because I don't know if the time in the Creator Space and the real world is the same. For example, how many years have passed in the God's Realm and how many years have passed in the real world? Or does it stop at the moment we enter the Creator Space? If time is not still, then I have to rush back to the real world. Otherwise, if I disappear for too long, something big will happen … "
Chu Hao smiled and said, "As you said, I also have to return to the real world because it involves the lives of thousands of people. Because of this, we have to plan carefully for the next movie. First, we have to earn enough reward points and side quests. Second, we have to figure out how to survive … Let's summarize our strength first."
"First of all, J, your physical fitness is already very good, and you're good at close combat. Now that you've strengthened your intermediate internal force, it has greatly increased your strength, speed, and reflexes. Generally speaking, your close combat strength is equivalent to about 20 soldiers, or about 10 elite special forces soldiers. But I'm sure that this isn't your full strength, because although you're good at close combat, this kind of close combat doesn't use internal force fighting techniques."
J was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to have realized something. "I was wondering why my internal force was so uncontrollable. So this is the reason … But I also remember that in the martial arts novels I've read, there seem to be some special fighting techniques in Chinese kung fu, right? For example, like that, uh, Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms? "
Chu Hao smiled as he nodded and said, "Yes, these so-called techniques are actually methods to use one's inner strength. It's similar to magic incantations. Its function is to unleash the true power of the energy in one's body. In fact, increasing one's physical fitness is just a very simple function. There are no rubbish abilities, only rubbish users. That's the principle."
"Then, Ares, you can only summon one skeleton, and you also need a human corpse. Of course, corpses are more common in the movie world, but we can't rule out special circumstances. For example, in the movie Super Cube, if we don't stay with the protagonists, then you can't summon the skeleton, which is a big problem."
"Finally, I …"
Chu Hao smiled bitterly. He closed his eyes for a moment. When he opened them again, his eyes were already in a daze. Following that, the two of them saw him making a gesture with both of his hands. At the same time, he was chanting some incomprehensible words. After about two seconds, the two of them saw Chu Hao's hands turn dark. In the next moment, they couldn't see anything. Their surroundings had sunk into an indescribable darkness. There wasn't a single bit of light. It was as if they had arrived at a world without light in an instant.
The darkness lasted for about six to seven seconds, and suddenly the whole room was filled with light again. Ares and J then realized that Chu Hao was still sitting in the same place, and the whole room was still the same.
"This is a level-0 cantrip, Forbidden Light, which can only last for six to seven seconds. Compared to real magic like Dark Magic, its flaws are obvious. For example, even I can't see any light. Once I use it, the area will become a zone of dead light, and there will be no light at all. I even obtained data from some research equipment that not only visible light, but also invisible light is also forbidden. From the time I visualize the complete spell model, to the correct posture and incantation, and successfully release it, the whole process takes about two seconds."
Chu Hao smiled bitterly and explained the principle of magic, then continued, "I exchanged for four level-0 cantrips and two level-1 spells. The level-0 cantrips take me two seconds to cast, and the level-1 spells take me five to six seconds. Especially the Charm Person spell, it takes me at least six seconds to release. I have to say, the casting time of magic is a big problem."
Ares listened with a calm expression. He thought for a moment and said, "Can't you shorten the casting time? For example, practice, or something like that. "
Chu Hao nodded. "We just happen to lack time. If we have enough time, I can reduce the casting time of the level-0 cantrips to one second, and the level-1 spells to three seconds."
J, on the other hand, looked very excited. He asked curiously, "I've played a lot of DND's games. Aren't there many Supreme Magic Skills in them? For example, Silent Spellcasting and Targeted Spellcasting. These two Supreme Magic Skills allow you to avoid gestures and gestures. When you reach the level of a Legendary Mage, you can even cast spells instantly. I guess you can even skip the spell model. "
Chu Hao shook his head. "That's just a game, after all. It's a setting. I've personally experienced what magic is. It should be a kind of strange runic circuit. As I mentioned before, you can think of it as a modern electrical circuit or something. Then, when energy passes through these runic circuits, it will create all kinds of strange effects. This is magic. I've also asked the Main God about the Supreme Magic Skills, but there's no such thing as a Supreme Magic Exchange. In fact, I can't think of any way to get rid of the most basic electronic circuit. This is the core of magic, so in the past few days, I haven't been able to research any Supreme Magic Effects because I don't even understand the principles behind them."
Ares suddenly thought of something. "Right, you mentioned the runic circuit, right? According to what you said … Every time I use Skeleton Summon, I feel the energy between my eyebrows automatically condense into some strange combination of runes. But I don't need any incantations or hand gestures. Perhaps … the real principle behind the Supreme Magic Effect is that you can automatically create spell models in your mind, and automate hand gestures and incantations? "
Chu Hao smiled bitterly and said, "The Spell Model is visualized in my consciousness. Once my consciousness loses focus and goes out of shape, this consciousness will change into something else. How can I let the Spell Model condense on its own? Unless there's a very strong computing core, and this computing core replaces the calculation of my consciousness, so it's possible to simplify this step. For example … Divine Spark or something. "
The three of them fell silent. In fact, in the past few days, they had flipped through many of the Lord God's exchange catalogs. It was good to have a look. Among them, they saw things like angel bloodlines, demon bloodlines, archangel bloodlines, demon baron bloodlines, and so on. These were just trivial things. What was even crazier was that there were demigod bloodlines, god bloodlines, and even Divine Sparks … However, these were just wishful thinking. The weakest first-level Divine Sparks, the lowest-level Divine Sparks in D&D, required thirty thousand reward points and two A-rank side quests. Moreover, in the Lord God's explanation of Divine Sparks, there was also a condition that must be met. Otherwise, the creature that fused with the Divine Sparks would be annihilated. God knew what this condition was.
Chu Hao sighed in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face as he said, "No matter what, we now possess strength that surpasses that of ordinary people. Although this strength is still very weak, this is the beginning of our strength. It's just that in the world of the next horror movie, we still need to have enough weapons to resist modern technology."
"Let's exchange for modern firearms and weapons to arm us. Then exchange for spiritual bullets to prevent us from entering a supernatural horror movie world!"
