Chapter 937: Thank you gift from the mastermind

"The second surgical method is more troublesome. We need to open your skull and engrave the alchemy array on the inside of the skull, symmetrically with the invisible spiritual seal on the forehead. The advantage is that it will not disfigure you." Metatron explained to Gao Fei.

"Choose the second one!" Inanna leaned close to Gao Fei's ear and persuaded him eagerly, "You know the shape of the spiritual seal. It looks like a cult totem. It is not only ugly to be engraved on the forehead, but also looks particularly immature!"

"If you open my skull, how sure are you that the operation will be successful?" Gao Fei asked worriedly.

"Two hundred percent!" Inanna patted her chest confidently.

Excluding the bragging element, Gao Fei felt that she should have an 80% to 90% chance, so he reluctantly chose the second surgical method.

"Close your eyes and take a nap. The operation will be over soon."

Inanna asked Gao Fei to sit in an armchair, gently stroked his forehead, whispered softly in his ear, and cast a hypnotic spell instead of general anesthesia.

Gao Fei relaxed his nerves and soon fell asleep.

Half asleep and half awake, he heard Metatron and Inanna whispering.

"Girl, do you like Gao Fei?"

"How could that be? I just admire his character and talent!"

"Hehe~ If you have that feeling for him, I can help you two get together."

"Don't mess around! He has a girlfriend!"

"What's the matter? It's fair competition! Do you want me to use the 9th ring psychic power 'compile memory' in his brain while he is asleep, and implant a memory of falling in love with you at first sight?"

"Is this what you call 'fair competition'? Bah! Octopus-headed woman, I advise you to do less immoral things, or you will be punished!"

Inanna's indignant rebuke made Gao Fei feel very relieved.

This young lady... how to say it, her emotional intelligence is not very high, and her self-righteous way of doing things sometimes makes people uncomfortable, but she is absolutely impeccable in terms of values.

Gao Fei could feel her integrity and kindness from the bottom of her heart, and she had a soul as pure as crystal.

In contrast, Ms. Metatron's personality was much more complicated, and Gao Fei could not see through her mind.

After sleeping for an unknown period of time, Gao Fei gradually woke up.

In the haze, he vaguely saw a huge spherical object floating in front of him, dancing with many flexible tentacles.

Gao Fei shuddered with fear and suddenly opened his eyes. Only then did he realize that the person standing in front of him was Inanna, and there was no tentacle monster.

"Gao Fei, are you awake?" Inanna looked over with concern, "You look a little ugly! Did you have a nightmare?"

Gao Fei nodded. He just dreamed of a monster.

"Is the operation over?"

"It's over, and it was a success." Metatron took off his latex gloves and said to him with a smile, "Open the star disk, call up your status panel, and see if there are any changes."

Gao Fei opened the star disk with expectation, and first noticed that his health value had lost 16 points. It seemed that the slight intracranial trauma caused by the operation had not yet healed completely.

Then, he found that there was an additional "Advanced Mind Blast" in his "Special Ability" column.

…

Advanced Mind Blast: Attachment or reaction action is launched, releasing a mental shock wave to the 150-foot cone area in front, and the creatures in the range collectively suffer 10d6 points of mental damage and are shocked for 1 minute; those who pass the will immunity will not suffer mental damage, and will recover after 1 round of dizziness. The difficulty of the immunity depends on the current highest mental attribute.

…

Compared with "Mind Blast", this advanced version has been comprehensively enhanced.

First of all, the attack radius has been increased from 60 feet (20 meters) to a 150-foot (50-meter) cone spread.

Secondly, in addition to causing shock, it also adds 10d6 psychic damage, which has both control and killing functions.

The last point, which is also the most important to Gao Fei, is that if the recipient's will immunity is successful, "Psychic Blast" is useless, while "Advanced Psychic Blast" can at least make the recipient dizzy for 1 round.

"Dizziness" is a negative state one level weaker than "Shock".

A dizzy creature cannot attack or move, nor can it stay focused, but it still has a trace of clear consciousness, can observe and listen to the surrounding movements normally, and can dodge by conditioned reflex when attacked.

Releasing "Advanced Psychic Blast" can also make the enemy dizzy for a round in the worst case, at least you can take the opportunity to escape, or interrupt the enemy's casting process, which is still good.

Gao Fei suddenly remembered that he also has a specialty called "Ability Focus", which can be used to enhance the difficulty of the immunity of a certain special ability. He has never had the opportunity to use it before, and now it is just right to match "Advanced Psychic Blast"!

Unable to contain his excitement, he immediately reorganized the list of free specialties, added "Ability Focus", and locked "Spirit Seal".

As expected, with the help of "Ability Focus", the difficulty of the exemption of "Advanced Mind Blast" can be counted into the double proficiency correction, which is +12 at Gao Fei's level!

Unless he encounters an opponent with a perception attribute that is so high that it is against the sky, or he is extremely lucky, otherwise the "Advanced Mind Blast" released by Gao Fei will have a very small chance of being resisted.

Putting away the star disk, Gao Fei thanked Metatron and Inanna and said goodbye.

"I almost forgot, this is for you." Metatron took out a crystal ring from the drawer of his desk and handed it to Gao Fei, "This is a thank-you gift that Lord Noah asked me to pass on to you."

Goofy took it and looked at it. The more he looked at it, the more familiar it looked. He asked Metatron: "Isn't this Peter Vanderwaal's 'Pope's Signet'?"

"It used to be his, but now it belongs to you."

Metatron smiled mysteriously.

"This ring contains the blood extract of Peter Vanderwaal and some of Lord Noah's brain cells. After my fusion processing, it was transformed into an epic magic weapon. As for the specific function... Haha, it’s up to you to experience it yourself.”

"Thank you, Ms. Metatron, please convey my regards to Lord Noah."

Gao Fei said goodbye to Metatron and Inanna, teleported back to Yaoguang Station, put the new version of the "Pope's Seal Ring" on his hand, and used the astrolabe to identify it. The result surprised him!

…
