If you are on the other side, you become a part of it.
Only on your own boat of the mind can you truly be yourself.
[Reading Requirements] None
You have obtained this book through harmless deconstruction, and the system has stripped all reading requirements.
[Knowledge in the Book]
Common knowledge of Mental Magic, including an introduction to common mental spells.
Five spell blueprints with defects:
Mind Control, Mental Vision, Mind Beacon, Mental Shield, Perception Obstruction.
There are quite a few mental magic spells in the magic book, which makes Noland Lee’s eyes dazzle.
Theoretically, as long as he is willing to consume Energy Points, he can change his profession to a mental wizard on the spot.
But.
Noland Lee opens each spell blueprint and carefully reads the panel information of the spells, discovers a very awkward place.
The completeness of these spell blueprints is only 10% to 25%.
When Noland Lee used Harmless Deconstruction on “Martyrdom Ten Commandments – Outline,” the spell blueprints he obtained were also incomplete. The defects of these death-related spells are usually increased casting consumption, shortened spell duration, or unupgradeable spells.
As for “The Third Shore” book, all the spells on it have a defect that significantly reduces the casting effect.
The higher the completeness of the spell blueprint, the higher the actual casting effect.
To give an example.
“Perception Obstruction.”
Noland Lee is very familiar with the mental magic effect, as it can reduce the target’s perception range, such as limiting the field of view.
A defect-free Level 1 “Perception Obstruction” can reduce the target’s perception range by 10%.
A Level 1 “Perception Obstruction” with only 10% completeness can only reduce the target’s perception range by 1%.
Isn’t that too insignificant?
Noland Lee has to level up the 10% completeness “Perception Obstruction” to
Level 10 in order to be on par with a 100% completeness Level 1 “Perception Obstruction.”
Isn’t the defect of the mental spell blueprint a bit too fatal..
Noland Lee feels a little depressed.
He patiently reads the teaching content of “The Third Shore.”
An hour later, a flash of realization shines in his eyes.
He understands what’s going on now.
He misunderstood the system.
The system didn’t do anything wrong.
The completeness of mental spell blueprints should only be this low and cannot be any higher.
The reason is very simple:
Mental magic manipulates the mind.
Normally, all mental spells will cause 10% to 50% of the same effect on the caster during the casting process.
This is the inherent backlash of mental magic, and ordinary mental wizards can never avoid it.
Because the principle of mental wizards manipulating other people’s minds is to use their own minds as weapons to attack other people’s minds.
This is like stabbing a metal shield with a dagger; the more aggressive the stabbing, the deeper the scratch on the shield. At the same time, the more damage there will be to the blade of the dagger itself.
If the dagger breaks during the stabbing process, it means that the caster has suffered a severe backlash from the failed casting of mental magic.
The attack and defense of the mental realm perfectly illustrate the saying, “the force of action is mutual.”
It seems that the system has reduced the completeness of the mental spell blueprints to below 25%, but actually, it has helped Noland Lee remove the huge cost of casting mental magic!
With the help of the system, Noland Lee can avoid the backlash effect of casting mental magic and cast mental magic carefree!
“Awesome, system. I have wronged you.”
Noland Lee slowly nods his head, and all his depression is swept away.
He scans the spell blueprints in the book again, becoming more and more satisfied with the results of this harmless deconstruction.
He temporarily suppresses the idea of learning mental magic immediately and calls out the third harmless deconstruction result.
