Black Knight From Blue Star

Chapter 312 The Goddess’ Mistake

 Hardy somewhat understood what Master Yi meant.

 The soul is indeed energy, but it can be regarded as a special solid.

 So there is actually no need to go out of your way to maintain its shape.

This is also the reason why many ghosts can maintain their souls immortality even though they have no active consciousness.

"Then what I have to do in the future is to relax my mind in the Nightmare Knight state and let my mental power focus more on magic power instead of self-maintenance and perception?"

Master Yi nodded: "That's what it means. Of course, this also has a disadvantage, that is, your reaction and perception ability will be greatly reduced in the nightmare knight state."

"That doesn't matter." Hardy laughed: "As long as my combat effectiveness is strong enough and the spell coverage is large enough, there will be no problem with the accuracy of the enemy range."

“How about giving it a try?” Master Yi smiled.

 Hardy is already in nightmare form at this time.

 He tried to focus all his mental energy on magic power, but he soon became dizzy.

 In the soul state, there will be no "dizziness", which means that if the mental power is dispersed, one's own existence will be temporarily diluted.

 Easily lose consciousness.

Hardy shook his head and said: "No, it's easy to cause problems. People are so dizzy that they almost forget who they are."

Master Yi frowned strangely: "No, according to my calculations and analysis, mental power does not work this way. It should be just an extension of the soul."

 Hardy asked: "Master Yi, have you tried it?"

"Of course I have tried it." Master Yi flicked his fingers, and a transparent figure appeared next to him, which looked exactly like himself: "This is the incarnation I made with my mental power. You see, I don't do anything at all." No!"

Hardy looked at this transparent figure formed by mental power, and was quite curious.

Generally speaking, illusions formed by magic have no ‘intelligence’, but the figure in front of him clearly has ‘humanity’, and he even greeted Hardy with a wink.

"He possesses almost all my knowledge." Master Yi smiled: "He even has a strong sense of autonomy and can assist me in researching magic."

Hady was stunned for a moment: "So powerful?"

"But the flaw is just like what I just said." Master Yi shrugged: "After summoning it, my mental power and perception will be greatly reduced."

Hardy looked around Master Yi's spiritual body and asked with a strange expression: "Then why can't I do it?"

This thing doesn’t look difficult.

 Hardy's mental strength is not bad either, so it stands to reason that he can do what Master Yi said relatively easily.

 But the reality is that he really has no way to 'separate' his own mental power from that of the other party.

 “Practice more and give it a try.” Master Yi said with a smile.

 He didn't find it strange.

Everyone is good at different things. What is easy for some people may be difficult for others.

Hardy also felt that it might be because he was not proficient.

 Then he left the Magic Academy and returned to his lord's mansion.

 After being surrounded by four people studying for a whole day, he was also a little tired.

 After sleeping for a while, he continued to practice the technique of dividing mental power.

 For several days, I was very serious, but made almost no progress.

Then this day, Hardy was feeling a little depressed.

 Since his rebirth, there has been no bottleneck in learning any ability.

 But where the mental power is divided, it is completely stuck.

 I feel a little helpless.

At this time, a warm current appeared in his head.

Then I heard the gentle voice of the goddess of light: "Hadi, you seem to be a little distressed."

 Hardy talked about his ‘difficulties’.

Aya was silent for a while and said with some embarrassment: "I have to apologize to you about this matter."

Um? Hardy was stunned for a moment.

 “What do you mean?”

"Because I wanted to protect your soul before, so that Fina would not hurt you." Aya's voice sounded timid: "So I strengthened your soul. Along with it, your mental strength was greatly affected. .”    Is that what happened?

 “Can it be restored?”

"No...it's very strong, and ordinary people can't break through the protective layer of your soul."

 Hardy was speechless.

 Sure enough, there are gains and losses.

His own soul has extremely strong defensive resistance, but as a price, he is no longer able to perform precise mental operations.

 “Sorry, Hardy.”

The goddess of light’s voice became weaker and weaker, and she seemed to know that she had done something wrong.

 “It’s okay, you are also trying to protect me.”

Hardy smiled nonchalantly.

 The separate development of Nightmare Knight is just a way to strengthen it.

 He believes that with the knowledge of Master Yi and others, they will definitely be able to find new ways to strengthen themselves.

 Besides, it’s not like he hasn’t acquired new abilities now. At least the two abilities of Steel Armor Flying Fist and Flying Head Barbarian still have a lot of room for development.

 Hearing that Hadi seemed lifeless, the voice of the goddess of light became active again.

“Hadi, I came to see you this time because I have something I want to inform you in advance.”

"whats the matter?"

 “The demons are ready to enter this world.”

Hardy looked stunned: "So fast?"

 At least two years earlier than in the previous life.

what is the reason?

The goddess of light continued: "Fina speculated that a very powerful leader should have appeared among the demons, uniting the entire demon clan."

 “Do you know who he is?”

 “Unclear.”

 “Could it be someone like me?”

Hadi was a little worried that he was someone who had traveled through time just like himself.

 “Don’t worry, you are you, your unique soul.”

Hardy breathed a sigh of relief.

If a time traveler like me, who has a deep understanding of the plot of the world line, joins the demons, he will be in real trouble.

“It seems that it was my personal influence that caused the butterfly effect.”

The goddess of light comforted her: "Don't take it upon yourself. Things that even Fina couldn't predict have nothing to do with you."

Hadi asked: "Can you figure out when the demons came to the human world?"

 “As short as two months, as long as half a year.”

 “Or emerge from the north?”

"Yes!" the goddess of light said helplessly: "They can only appear from there."

Hadi stood up: "It seems that Kievan Rus will suffer first again."

"Yes." The goddess of light said with a bit of sadness in her voice, "I hope the casualties this time will be much smaller."

 Then the voice of the goddess of light disappeared and returned to the heaven.

 Hardy went to the senior teachers' residential area and found Patience.

At this time, Patience was sitting under the grape trellis, drinking wine alone, enjoying herself.

 She saw Hardy coming in, and her pretty red face turned even redder.

 “Are you trying to do bad things again?”

Patience looked at Hardy, her eyes watery.
