I upgrade points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 281 280. Improvement of cognitive level

Lloyd squinted his eyes secretly, and saw that the reinforcements were still carefully searching the surroundings. They would not arrive for a while, so he continued to close his eyes and pretend to be dead, and then added the 75 points for this wave of upgrades.

25 points [rationality], 25 points [spiritual power], 25 points [cognition], start adding!

[Ding~Add points to complete]

[User: Royd]

[Status: normal]

[Insanity value: 0/10000, upper limit: 26000]

【Rationality: 260】

[Spiritual power: 260]

【Inspiration: 150】

[Cognition: 260]

[System: Distort LV4, reject LV3]

Ah~ look~ this bucket’s attributes perfectly interprets the beauty of balance! This is my perfect definition and interpretation of the concept of ‘comprehensive’!

As for the 150 points of [Inspiration]...

It was clearly 140 points before, but after aligning with the hexahedral statue, it inexplicably increased by 10 points...

How can I put it... This wave directly increased to level 15. If these 10 points of [Inspiration] are converted, it is level 17. It allowed Lloyd to regain a little bit of the feeling of cheating and playing games on earth, just standing still. The level will skyrocket.

But the difference is that in this life, I, Lloyd, am not cheating!

But looking back now, this upgrade process is really sweat-inducing.

That mental pollution really comes in waves, one after another, directly worth 10,000 points of insanity. Fortunately, the frequency is not very fast, maybe because the distance is too far, right? Otherwise, Lloyd would be worried that the panel would not hold up?

Fortunately, the panel still worked hard. Of course, I also worked hard. Relying on the level 6 [Dizziness Resistance], I kept holding on without losing consciousness. I also got help from those two forces at the critical moment. I was afraid If so, you have to be admitted to a mental hospital...

Oh no, it should be on the -3rd floor of Tower No. 9.

Lloyd even imagined the scene of Wei Ya crying while executing herself...

It was so terrible, so terrible in every sense of the word...

So if he was given another chance to choose, he would rather slowly upgrade step by step every day, rather than risk his life to upgrade like this time.

Sigh... In the final analysis, I am still not strong enough or not working hard enough, which is why I was forced to be in such an embarrassing situation this time...

As expected, if you don’t work hard in your spare time, you have to work hard in war. It seems that after I enter Mizkatok University, I will have to work harder!

After all, there really are existences like ‘gods’ in this world…

No, that may not be accurate. It should be said that those high-level gods are really interested in this small world.

Lloyd thought about the powerful existence behind the hexahedron that could be regarded as the 'son of the evil god', and he was still frightened.

But at the moment, he didn't have much thought about this guy, so he withdrew his thoughts and looked at the skill upgrade situation:

[Have obtained enough skill fragments to unlock the skill—Space Domination, LV1]

[Have obtained enough skill fragments to unlock the skill - Spiritual Tentacles, LV1]

[Enough skill fragments have been obtained to unlock new spiritual power usage skills - Psychic Blast]

Get rid of those tips such as 'Fragment +1', the important tips are these three.

Lloyd first looked at the text descriptions of the two new skills——

[Space Control (LV1) - Initial understanding and control of three-dimensional space. Can influence and interfere with the space within the scope of inspiration. It is easier to understand and perceive the concept and mystery of 'space'. There is no upgrade yet. Way】

As usual, there is a line of small print below for additional explanation:

"What you see and what you know may not be what you understand or touch."

Judging from the text description alone, this skill doesn't seem to be a big deal, but that's just the usual "laziness" of the panel. In fact, Lloyd probably looked at the details about this skill that had grown up in his mind, and he only thought of two. Words to describe:

Magical skill!

A magical skill no less than [Dizziness Resistance]!

Although it is not yet able to move itself instantly, it is still no problem to retrieve objects from the air.

Although it cannot yet achieve functions such as 'space jump' and 'space compression', it can still be used to find the gate of Mizkatok University.

Although it can't cut Gojo Satoru into 2.5 Satoru yet, it can still move things like lead blocks, sharp knives, boiling water, and paraquat to other people's heads and then smash them down.

Although it cannot yet allow itself to understand the principles and construction methods of different spaces, it is still no problem to speed up its learning and mastering of this kind of knowledge.

This is an absolute magical skill that can be used in many directions and fields such as daily life, life, study, and combat.

And the upper limit is extremely high and the plasticity is extremely strong.

The only flaw...

Probably because I don’t even know how to upgrade the panel...

This made Lloyd wonder where these skill fragments came from?

First of all, the skills related to the patterns graffitied by the madmen on the wall are the second new skills, which I will not talk about for now.

It wasn't taught by the Hexahedron. What it spewed out was just pure spiritual pollution. There was no knowledge or fragments in it. It was just pure dissatisfaction and wanting to crush these three ants who dared to disturb their elegance.

So after thinking about it, Lloyd had reason to suspect that the fragments of this skill were absorbed by him when the alien space was shattered.

Then because the source of fragments is gone, the panel doesn’t know how to upgrade it.

Sigh... You don't understand such a simple inference. Can you try harder? After following me for so long, have you learned any of my excellent qualities?

Lloyd couldn't help but make some meaningless comments to the panel.

Then he put down [Space Domination] first, and then looked at the second skill——

[Spiritual tentacles (LV1) - Condensing inspiration and spiritual power into a secret and subtle tentacle state, quietly invading the thinking fields of other creatures, and using this as a channel to interfere with their thinking, and continue to collect fragments to improve skill levels]

As usual, there is a line of small print below for additional explanation:

"I seem to be able to use this skill to peek into other people's memories and thoughts? Let me try it... Hahaha, I see, I understand, I understand! Hiss~roar~#￥￥#@!@\u0026% "

This skill comes from the crazy patterns on the wall before. In terms of effect, it is really useless just by looking at it. It has some functional overlap with Lloyd's current mastery. The [Distortion] system is also an expert in disturbing thinking.

Maybe after further upgrading, or with some evil magic, we can achieve the effect of the previous supervisor controlling the villagers, right?

But it is impossible for Royd, who hates evil and hates evil, to do such a thing.

However, the small line of explanation below served as a reminder to Lloyd that he must not use this skill to peek into other people's memories and thoughts...

It's no wonder that all the villagers here are brain-dead mobile vegetative people, otherwise he wouldn't dare to control others like this.

In short, this is destined to be a skill of little use, so Lloyd just looked at it casually and threw it aside.

As for the last skill upgrade, strictly speaking, it is not a specific skill, but an enhancement of the extraordinary person's ability, so it is not recorded on the panel, and there is no corresponding text description.

According to the extra knowledge in my mind, this improvement is still related to the basic skills of "spiritual power release". The specific effect is to pour out a large amount of spiritual power in one breath, making a powerful impact on the target.

Then it was gone...

As for how 'powerful' it is specifically, we can only wait and try it out later.

The source of this skill is the three investigators next to them. It is a basic skill that was picked up while helping them share the mental pollution.

I also don’t understand why the investigators use this technique?

But I’m afraid the effect won’t be very strong anyway…

In addition, Lloyd also 'learned' some fighting skills, investigation skills, life-saving skills and so on from them.

These are actually very useful, and they are all valuable experience gained from twenty years of working in the industry, but I don’t know why they were not included in the panel?

Lloyd didn't think much about it, and then took stock of the subsequent harvest——

[Ding~ Reading progress improved]

[Ding~ The interpretation of the unknown fragments is completed, and the corresponding knowledge has been obtained]

[Ding~ You have completed the enlightenment of the embodied system. Do you want to get involved in the specific system? 】

This is something that was expected. Originally, the fragment contained knowledge of various [Embodiment] systems. After reading it, you will have completed the enlightenment of the [Embodiment] system. It is logical and natural, right?

But there is no need to rush yet. It is an important [Enlightenment] ceremony anyway, so it needs to be more serious and ceremonial. I don’t want to complete such an important ceremony while lying down and pretending to be a corpse.

But having said that, the basic knowledge of the [Embodiment] system in the fragments and the [Enlightenment] effect provided are actually just a little bit of tack, just like a few paragraphs of 'examples' in a paper, not the true meaning of the fragments. The point is.

So Lloyd was also wondering before. It was obviously just the basic knowledge of the [Realization] system, but why was it packaged in such a subtle and complicated way?

Now this long-standing doubt has been solved. Even if it is an 'example', it is of course easy to understand.

And the real essence of this fragment lies in——

[Ding~ The cognitive level has been improved]

Although it was just a few words of reminder, it was the biggest and most core gain of Lloyd's hard work and danger.

Just a few minutes ago, when he received this reminder, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment in his mind, like an enlightenment.

The reason why he can figure out what the existence behind the hexahedral statue is, and realize that the fragments of those statues are precious and good things, and even where the skill [Space Domination] comes from, etc., is that he can realize it on his own. These answers are also due to the effect of this 'cognitive level improvement'.

In addition, the strange fragments of knowledge that were previously messy and incomprehensible but had not been swept into the 'recycle bin' also suddenly became clear.

He even had some new understanding and recognition of the indomitable stick figure, which made the reading progress of "The Book of Truth" skyrocketed by 15%, and he was already halfway through.

Although Lloyd cannot complete all the contents of this knowledge by himself for the time being because of the incompleteness of this knowledge, he at least knows what this knowledge is talking about and what it involves.

Obviously, this improvement in cognitive level is equivalent to opening the door to a new field for Lloyd. In this world where "knowledge is power", its effect is far stronger than the previous attribute upgrades and skill upgrades.

Lloyd can even vaguely feel that this upgrade is a key to a higher level.

Not a high level like level 5 or above.

But above the saints, the realm called "supreme" by humans...

Only those who hold this "key" can step onto the ladder leading to that realm.

Of course, this is inevitably accompanied by active dangers and accidents, and it is destined to be a journey full of hardships.

But as the saying goes, since you are here...

Lloyd certainly cannot give up this opportunity.

Besides, he never wanted to be mentally polluted by some inexplicable offspring again...

But then again, Lloyd was a little confused. How could he be involved in this unknown fragment when he was fighting against an evil god's offspring?

Even though he had gained cognitive improvement, he couldn't think of the answer to this question...

Even with a little association, inspiration and weird intuition began to revel, and it was not the kind of gongs and drums that announced the start of the feast before, but more like dancing on the grave.

It seems that although he has obtained the key to the supreme realm, there is still a long ladder to climb to the real supreme level...

There is nothing to say, only to continue to work hard and struggle!

Lloyd sighed in his heart, and so far he has roughly counted the gains of this trip.

He took a final look at the complete panel:

Although there are still some scattered details that have not been sorted out, I just don't have time to sort them out for the time being. I will slowly clean them up when I have time later.

So he squinted his eyes again and found that the reinforcements had not found him yet?

Instead, they gathered outside the storage area, hesitating and unwilling to go deeper, as if there was something terrible inside...

Now Lloyd was too embarrassed to continue pretending to be dead, so he could only shout:

"Help! I'm bleeding!"
