Within Geli’s mental secret realm.
In the square, one area is slightly pitted, beside it sprawls a dead horse.
Su Lu, panting heavily, peeled off the armor from the unconscious heavy cavalry knight, revealing a rather beautiful face – stunned, it was Geli!
“The defense of monster types is just this simple – defeat the monster and you can do as you please!”
“The spirit lock paired with the [Wanderer]’s ability seems quite good… Should I focus on practicing whip-type weapons in the future?”
Actually, this heavy cavalry knight is not weak, almost to the standard of the second tier, with the help of a transcendent creature.
But Su Lu used a trick to convert the cavalry into infantry, which made it somewhat easier to fight.
Even so, it took some effort to take down the knight.
At this moment, looking at the semi-unconscious Geli, he didn’t hesitate and asked:
“Your name!”
“Geli Lenna!” “Transcendent occupation?”
“[Soldier]!”
Soon, Su Lu obtained the information he wanted.
“Turns out… In this area, there is indeed an occasional black market located in Charles City!”
“This Geli, she herself is a first-tier [Soldier], intending to take the [Cavalry] path, accumulating Golden Dragons for the second-tier [Cavalry] occupation information, she has already come into contact with a seller, estimated to cost about two hundred Golden Dragons…”
As for the other information, Su Lu didn’t delve further.
In this respect, he was rather restrained, not prying into a lady’s private matters.
“Alright… what you have to do next, is to forget everything and have nice dreams!’
He quickly left, and everything at the scene quickly returned to its original state…
Dawn.
“Good morning, Geli!”
After Su Lu had finished washing, he purposely waved at Geli.
“Good morning… Sean!”
Geli seemed a bit off, the initial strong woman personality seemed to have somehow collapsed, turning less fierce.
‘Damn!’ Su Lu silently cursed at this scene.
Subconscious hypnosis indeed had its own limitations; it worked well on ordinary people, but most Transcendants had resistance.
Whether it’s Jessila’s fear from last time or Geli’s subtle closeness, none of it is good!
Memory alteration, making influences in the mind, the most important thing is to make it seem natural, so that the person under the spell doesn’t notice anvthinc unusual. let alone discovers it.
This obvious change of attitude was ‘anomaly’!
If Geli had very familiar friends and family around, they would definitely feel strange and might start investigating.
“The [Mystical Scholars] who randomly spy into the mind seem to be as frightening as the cultists who play with souls…” Su Lu pondered, “Is it because there are too few who take the [Odd Technician] path? So not many people know about the secrets of the [Spirit Medium] path?”
But thinking about it, it seemed rather normal.
The experience needed to advance the Soul Trance skill from LV2 to LV3 is 300 points! While to promote from LV3 to LV4 needed 600 points! This was even more than advancing to the second -tier profession!
“Generally, the Soul Trance level of [Mystical Scholars] is around LV2, LV3 ones are extremely rare, because if they take the [Mysterious Scientist] path afterwards, they don’t need to continue levelling up Soul Trance, and thus know nothing about the second layer of the Spirit World!”
“Only those Occupational People who are committed to the [Odd Technician] path will invest more energy in the level of Soul Trance, but they do not have an attribute bar, so it is inevitably very slow to advance. What’s more, the path of the [Odd Technician] seems almost extinct, who knows it now? They all think that [Mystical Scholars] will eventually take the [Mysterious Master] route, so they didn’t pay much attention to me? What a luck!”
Su Lu felt very fortunate.
All these experiences count for something.
At least, when it comes to obtaining information, ordinary people in front of him nearly had no secrets.
At this moment, he was even more determined to explore the Spirit World.
Just by touching the second layer of the Spirit World, one can gain such benefits. If one digs deeper, perhaps they would discover more treasures.
“Of course, it’s also possible to run into some unfathomable and terrifying existence directly…”
After hastily finishing breakfast, the two continued on horseback.
They rode for several hours, and a canyon appeared in front of Su Lu.
“Once we cross this, it’s the native reservoir, and there will be various dangers!”
Geli said to Su Lu: “You need to be careful.”
“Thank you!”
Su Lu went quiet, thinking this woman did not fall for him, did she? Is the impact left in the subconsciousness reflected in the outside world, and is it so unusual?
“Then let’s go in!”
Having reminded him, Geli was also a bit puzzled, she likes tough men, not these scholarly types!
After she silently muttered these words in her heart, she clamped her legs, the white horse neighed and rushed into the canyon.
Su Lu followed close behind.
Some information popped up in his mind.
“Kangni State Nature Preservation Area… Gaosuo indigenous people, primitive tribes mastering the [Witch Doctor] and [Totem Warrior] professional paths…”
This world is different from the previous one. If the indigenous didn’t master some transcendent powers, they would probably have been extinct by now.
The [Witch Doctor] professional path is very peculiar, good at cultivating strange animals and plants, and using them to make various potions with magical effects.
All this is recorded in the idle books in the White Tower, and Su Lu happens to have read a piece.
“Of course… this is just a small adventure, nothing big… if worst comes to worst, I’ll just go to the Transcendent Market in Charles City and squat there, maybe there will be some gains…”
Thinking about this, the two riders rushed out of the canyon.
On a piece of cactus, a lizard with two tails flashed its tongue then disappeared in an instant.
“So this is… the native reservoir?” Su Lu looked at the surrounding scenery, which was no different from the outside.
But his inspiration became a bit tense, indicating an increase in the level of danger.
“Yes, be careful of the natives!”
Geli reminded him again, “If it was in the past… during Conqueror William’s time, their scalps were worth a silver coin.”
“So… the price I paid for inviting you is the same as that of five hundred Gaosuo people?” Su Lu asked with a smile.
“You’ll find it very worthwhile!”
Geli had just spoken halfway when she suddenly appeared alert, gun in hand.
Bang!
The sound of a gunshot came from the east.
“People! And they’re outsiders!”
Geli confirmed resolutely, “Native Gaosuo people only use primitive bows and javelins!”
“Poachers?” Su Lu’s first reaction were sneaky hunters, poaching rare animals in the reserve.
“What do you think? Want to go have a look?” Geli asked.
“Let’s go see it!” Although Su Lu didn’t want to cause trouble, considering his previous claim of being a scholar, curiosity was necessary, so he nodded and agreed..
