“Nowadays, fifth level legendary powers are emerging in the world. Without such a professional legend at one’s side, surviving might prove difficult in the future…”
After taking a bath, Su Lu, dressed in a loose fitting outfit, returned to his dormitory.
Sitting at his desk, he started to write: “A thought on experiment design to prove the existence and velocity of electromagnetic waves…”
To Su Lu, proving his worth and drawing the attention of the higher-ups was an easy task, as long as he “ported” some research findings from his previous life.
This electromagnetic wave experiment was initially invented by Hertz in historical context, using the oscillation principle of electrical spark gap to design an oscillation device with a generator and a detector.
Once the frequency of the oscillator was obtained and multiplied by the wavelength, the speed of the electromagnetic wave propagation could be determined, which was equal to the speed of light!
Although it wasn’t an applied research accomplishment, it carried significant meaning in theoretical physics and laid a foundation for the invention of wireless communications.
Displaying it would surely bring astonishment.
Su Lu estimated the experiment to be worth at least 100 points which was just enough to make up for his increasingly hollow badge.
Although the books he read in the White Tower were all leisure reading, the sheer volume of them almost depleted his points.
As for the treasure trove of experience points, he obviously didn’t want to pass it by.
‘I can let [Soldier] train on its own but second-order [Wanderer] is not as easy to advance. Personal training might require more than a year of dedicated practice… Do I even have that time? I must use experience points to level up. Of course… I’m not in a hurry, I just need to maintain the storage.’
‘Apart from this… there’s that woman, Jessila!’
Thinking of her, a cold glint flashed in Su Lu’s eyes.
Compared to Orchi, this woman was more detestable, perhaps because her bossy behavior at the start didn’t sit well with him.
‘Maybe… I can speed up the process of exploring the mental realm…’
Su Lu had long wanted to experience what was different about a transcendent’s mental secret realm.
That woman Jessila, was the perfect target!
Her strength was clearly not strong, even though she had taken office, she was definitely still at the first level, making her not much of a threat.
Once all preparations were made, Su Lu lay relaxed on his bed, murmuring: “Soul Trance!”
In a blink of an eye, his spiritual body flew out of his flesh and jumped into the first layer of the Spirit World.
Within the Illusory Spirit Realm, the inner circle of the Green Tree Castle was covered with white fog, reflecting the power of the Mystic Lock.
But Su Lu didn’t even look at it, and made another jump entering the second layer Mental Realm!
Boom!
The scenes around him changed instantly, transforming into a sea of consciousness.
“In the second layer of the Illusory Spirit Realm, there is still the concept of distance, so these nearby mental secret realms… all belong to the Inner Circle…
Su Lu looked around to see peculiar forms of varying secret realms.
Some were irregular light balls that were moving, the minds of ordinary people, while others were like mysterious islands, representing the secret realms of the transcendent.
There were even a few enormous whirlpools, almost like monsters that could swallow everything. These belonged to the occupational persons of the Inner Circle Academy. Just getting close made Su Lu’s spiritual body feel a pulling and tearing sensation.
These existed in the ocean of consciousness in harmony, forming numerous mental channels.
‘Even occupational persons of higher order, who are not particularly talented
in the Spirit World, have strong mind defense… If I rush in now, I will be courting death!’
Su Lu couldn’t help recalling his encounter with Beryl.
The reason he was able to suppress her and obtain part of her memory was entirely related to the initial servant-master contract.
Moreover, when she realised this, she started hiding herself immediately.
‘At present, trying to explore a high-level secret realm is simply overestimating my own abilities. But… the minds of transcendent beings at the first and second level can still be explored.’
Thinking of this, Su Lu didn’t hesitate any longer, a strand of aura appeared in his hand.
This was left by that Jessila!
After this breath arrived in the Mental Realm, it immediately expanded, like a small snake hanging in midair, involuntarily attracted and heading in a certain direction.
Su Lu followed closely behind and then saw a moving island of pink.
“Jessila’s mental entrance?”
He observed for a moment, finding that the island was not large. After conversion, the other person was just a first-order Transcendent Occupational Person, and the kind that had just taken office. His heart immediately settled down.
If the other person were a second-order existence, the island’s area would have to be at least twice as large.
“Since it’s just a first-order, I won’t be polite.”
For anything that wanted to harm him, Su Lu never knew how to show mercy.
He quickly moved his Spiritual Body forward and stepped onto the island with one foot.
Whoosh whoosh!
In an instant, the surrounding world began to change.
Boom!
Walls of earth sprang up out of nowhere, blocking out the sun and forming an enormous maze.
Within the maze, there were various roars of beasts echoing, carrying a strong pressure.
“A maze type? As expected, deep in thought!”
To deal with this, one can only find the real body of the other person in the maze and then read the memory to exert influence!
“And also…it looks like, not a common maze! A Compound type?” Hearing the beast roars coming from around him, Su Lu became more confident.
Every person has their own mind defense, especially the higher-order Transcendents.
The defense of a first-order Transcendent is definitely much stronger than an ordinary person.
Therefore, the range of this maze is several times that of an ordinary person, and there are even traps and powerful beasts guarding it!
“Fortunately…it’s not a second-order.”
Su Lu looked up at the sky: “However…this world, it feels so real! I wonder what the minds of those high-order professionals are like…”
He had a hunch that if the Mental Secret Realm of a low-order Transcendent was considered a ‘copy’, then to a high-order, perhaps their mind would become a ‘world’!
Just slightly imagining the difficulty of finding a person in a world, one would know that this kind of defense is desperate enough!
This is merely ‘searching’ , not to mention the whole world’s defense and resistance.
“So…high-order professionals, are hard to mess with!”
“Not only them, but even the lower ones are not simple!”
Su Lu arbitrarily chose a path and entered the maze.
The core of the Mental Secret Realm is a person’s subconsciousness. Aside from this, mazes, guards, beasts and so on are nothing more than defense mechanisms. They are like a person’s thoughts. They disappear and reappear at the thought, endless in number, and there’s no benefit in killing them.
If he wants to gain experience, the only possibility lies in harming and destroying that person’s subconscious.
But so far, Su Lu has never done so in the Mental Realm, so he doesn’t know what the result would be. However, reasoning should not be wrong.
“Roar roar!”
At a crossroad, several spiders the size of water tanks, black-skinned and purple-patterned, pounced over, their teeth sharp as knives.
“Die!”
Su Lu pressed his right hand down, blowing the spiders into juice, and then walking past without a glance: “I hope I can finish tonight…”
Breaking through mental defense requires too much time. If it were an official battle, Su Lu would have been bombarded and killed countless times while setting up.
Even if he sneaks in secretly, it’s fine for an ordinary person, but some keen Transcendents might detect something.
So, this method is best used to interrogate prisoners and steal information, and it’s hard to use in a face-to-face battle..
