- #198 - Chapter 197: Great Development of Illusion Magic (Additional Update for Alliance Leader Tawilat Umr)
Just do what you want. Xia Yu opened the closet and took out his night suit. He was dressed neatly in black sneakers, black sweatpants, and a black pullover. He raised his hood and found a black mask to put on— —In this way, the details of personal facial features can be reduced to the most attenuated standard.
Since it’s too troublesome to change the facial features, I might as well just cover them up.
He looked in the mirror again and saw that his image was indeed much simpler. Then he took out the serrated saber and held it in his hand. This shape looked a bit like a street robber or gangster who was wandering the streets.
But since he was taking the assassin route anyway, it didn’t matter.
Concentrate, use the mirror technique – change!
A man in black who looked eighty-nine points similar to him appeared in front of Xia Yu. The reason why he said he was only eighty-nine points similar was because if you look carefully, you can still see some slight differences, such as the folds of his clothes and his movements. The posture, etc., but other aspects can basically be said to be fake, especially during battle. If such a clone suddenly pops up, it can definitely attract firepower.
Xia Yu walked out of the bathroom and came to the living room, and the phantom followed him out with the same attitude.
Looking at the mirror image in front of him, Xia Yu nodded with satisfaction. If he disappeared again and only left the mirror image in place, there would be no flaws.
Xia Yu named it Mirror Image Technique, which was his first illusion technique that could be used in actual combat, but this was just the beginning.
Xia Yu then continued to think divergently, and soon came up with several ways to apply illusions.
The first is summoning. Although the creatures created by phantoms are not lethal, if used well, they can also intimidate, deter enemies, and increase momentum.
The mirroring technique was just one of its uses. The next thing Xia Yu chose to transform was an illusion that was intended to deter the enemy. The first thing he chose was a tiger, which was the most typical beast in Xia Yu’s impression.
Phantom Technique – Change!
A tiger appeared in the living room.
He looked at it for a while and found that there was something wrong with the transformed tiger. It looked too cartoony. This was actually something he had encountered when he first learned the art of meal making, because it directly embodied the impression in his mind and stored it in his memory. The pictures are somewhat exaggerated. Xia Yu understood very early on that human memory is actually very unstable. Many times, the memory of things is just a rough impression, and often different images are confused.
There are too many cartoon images of tigers, which will inevitably affect personal memory.
Xia Yu had to call up real tiger pictures and videos and observe them carefully for a while, strengthen his memory, and once again used the phantom technique to finally create an image of a tiger that could be mistaken for the real one.
Seeing the tiger pacing back and forth in the living room, Xia Yuxin thought that this thing could definitely scare people.
But he immediately discovered a new problem. This thing has no sound. He can’t make phantom sounds yet. No sound means that the tiger will not roar, and there will not even be footsteps. If the opponent is brave enough to panic, , it is not difficult to create some panic and scare away the opponent, but if the opponent is careful enough and bold enough, it will be easy to see the flaws.
Moreover, this thing is just an image and has no physical form. It can only scare people with its fangs and claws. It must not pounce on it, otherwise it will immediately defeat the gang. But if you don’t even roar, it is too unreasonable.
Xia Yu frowned. He was not going to base his hopes of victory on his opponent’s mistakes.
What is there that has no sound but can still create panic?
Xia Yu had an idea, there it is, ghost!
Ghosts themselves do not make sounds, and they have a certain deterrent effect and can create panic, and even if there is no way to make physical contact, it is still justified. After all, ghosts exist in the form of nothingness in many cultural backgrounds, so even if they are discovered Not having a physical form is less likely to arouse suspicion.
Xia Yu came to the computer again. He spent more than 10,000 yuan on a new computer. The monitor was also replaced with a new one. It was much faster than his old computer that had been used for five or six years.
He immediately started searching for images of ghosts in various horror movies.
After synthesizing various ghost images, Xia Yu decided to use Japanese ghosts as the phantom.
Because in many American horror movies, ghosts can be destroyed by physical means, which is really a bit speechless. Moreover, American horror movies are obviously less scary than Japanese horror movies. You can refer to various plasma movies. However, it is still a bit difficult for illusion to achieve the effect of blood flying all over the screen, especially without musical accompaniment.
Therefore, Japanese horror films that take the psychological horror route are the best choice.
Xia Yu finally chose Sadako in Midnight Bell and Kayako in Grudge as the main illusion targets.
Mainly because it is more representative, the image is also distinctive, and it is easier to transform.
After downloading these two movies, Xia Yu started watching them.
This Japanese horror movie is indeed a bit virtuous. Watching it in broad daylight makes me feel chilly.
Once the feeling is found, the next step is to experiment.
Phantom Technique – Change!
A female ghost in white with disheveled hair immediately appeared in the living room.
I have to say that this thing looks much scarier than a tiger. Even though I know it is fake, I feel a little scared when I look at it. Especially during the transformation process, Xia Yu deliberately added a cold light and translucent color to her, which makes it even more scary. It seemed quite ghostly.
Not bad, this thing is perfect for scaring people.
Then he experimented with Kayako and several other classic horror monsters, finally establishing this type of illusion.
Xia Yu named it Ghost Shadow Technique, which was regarded as his second practical illusion technique.
Next, Xia Yu began to experiment with new types of illusions. This time, the application method he chose was to use illusions to create cool magical effects to disrupt or confuse the enemy.
Flame – rise!
As soon as he stretched out his hand, a ball of flame burned in his hand. However, the flame did not have any temperature and was just an image.
Not enough – make it bigger! Have a fireball!
Xia Yu thought, and a fireball the size of a washbasin appeared in his hand, like a mini sun. The dazzling red light looked extremely hot, but it still looked a bit fake, more like some games he had played. The fireball inside has a bit of game style.
There is nothing that can be done about it. In reality, it is difficult for flames to form fireballs, and it is not easy to create the phantom of fireballs. Almost all of Xia Yu’s memories and impressions of fireballs come from games, and even movies are relatively rare. .
However, although it is rare, it is not completely absent. Xia Yu searched for it and finally found two movies.
The first one is the movie version of “World of Warcraft”. In this movie, the mage Khadgar used Pyroblast once, which can be used as a reference.
The other is the extended version of “The Lord of the Rings”, in which the white-robed wizard Saruman also used fireball once.
Xia Yu watched the scene of the fireball technique repeatedly and started experimenting again. This time, the transformed fireball finally looked more realistic.
Looking at the fireball as big as a washbasin in his hand, Xia Yu became playful and shouted aggressively, “Tremble in front of the power of magic, Pyro-Explosion Technique! Ha!” He roared. , waved his hand with great momentum, and the huge fireball flew forward with his thoughts, silently exploded into a ball of flame, and disappeared.
Haha, this is definitely enough to bluff people.
It’s a pity that there is no sound, otherwise it would be even cooler.
Next, Xia Yu cast several phantoms of attack magic.
Lightning! The dazzling thunder light is gorgeous and dazzling, filled with breathtaking white light. This move is relatively easy to transform, and there are not many movies with lightning special effects.
Ice archery! The ice prisms formed by the condensation of white frost shoot out and dissipate into white light. This is a bit fake.
tornado! A tornado swept out of the plains, but unfortunately it couldn’t even blow up the paper towels.
Xia Yu had a lot of fun playing alone in the living room. Although these false illusions were not lethal, it was quite exciting to stand up.
Unfortunately, if it is used in actual combat, the effect may not be too little. Apart from scaring the enemy and creating some fighter opportunities at the beginning, it will be of no use at all when the truth is discovered later.
Xia Yu thought for a while and realized that the biggest effect of this thing was to block his sight. In that case, it would be better to just use the smoke.
Phantom Technique – Change! Xia Yu waved his hand and the dark mist quickly filled the entire living room. Xia Yu opened his sunglasses. Under the observation of his energy vision, he could see through the black mist. After all, the energy in the mist was too little.
But for ordinary people, it can definitely be a black eye.
This move is quite good. It directly blocks the enemy’s sight, and then he takes the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on the enemy. It is very suitable for his assassin-type fighting style.
Xia Yu named this move Dark Cloud Technique, making it his third combat skill.
For the next three days, Xia Yu continued to develop and practice his illusion magic.
His growth can be said to be visible to the naked eye. After all, he has the proficiency bonus of specializing in illusion magic. He can practice with twice the result with half the effort. There are also benefits to partial subjects. In three days, Xia Yu successfully developed seven or eight different types. of illusion magic.
Although the effect is to conjure up various images to confuse the enemy, in terms of application, it has a completely different effect. If used well, it can definitely be of great help, coupled with the practical combat ability developed with Brother Spoon. , Xia Yu became more confident about his performance in the next game.
Unconsciously, the nine days came quickly, and on this day, his watch rang again.
System prompt: The next game will start in 24 hours, players please be prepared.
