Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead-Chapter 463 - 239: Virtue and Sin (Part 2)

"Skill Description: Launch a spiritual attack on the target. The intensity of the spiritual attack depends on the user’s Inspiration. If the spiritual attack breaks through the target’s Will Barrier, complete control over the opponent is achieved."

"Note: When the target is a Player, the effect of the spiritual attack is halved."

Judging solely from the item ability, the effect of Mind Resonance is not strong. Spiritual Control seems impressive, but the bound attribute is Inspiration. The majority of players in the Desolate Realm do not invest much Attribute Points into Inspiration.

Additionally, with the spiritual attack’s effect halved against players, this indicates its effectiveness is mainly during dungeon raids to control the dungeon’s indigenous beings, making it rather useless.

The reason Mind Resonance can be classified as A-Level is likely due to the transformation of divinity in its First Skill.

Any ability associated with divinity would naturally have a high rating.

Wu Chang toyed with it for a while and then returned it to Mo Ke.

"Since you have a way, Mr. Mo Ke, it’s indeed worth a try."

Mo Ke looked at the Gluttonous Ant Wu Chang had conjured and said, "Now, we need to figure out how long it can last and how far it can stay from you. Sean, since this involves Hymn Company, I hope you can cooperate with me."

Wu Chang nodded and said, "That’s what I should do."

After a series of tests, the two of them gained some understanding of Wu Chang’s awakened abilities.

The creations produced by Wu Chang through Condensing Void into Reality depend on his Inspiration for their duration. Given his overpowering Inspiration, everything he initially conjured never dissipated eventually, so sustainability is not a concern.

The number of creations relates to the Power allocated to the creations and also to his Will.

Every fifty points of Will allows for an additional creation, but two creations will split the upper limit of the creation’s abilities.

At this moment, he has 176 points of Will, sufficient to create three creations simultaneously, although he claimed, in front of Mo Ke, that his ability limit was only two.

As for the distance concern that Mo Ke was most curious about, once a creation is made, as long as Wu Chang does not deactivate the ability, the creation is an independent entity with no restrictions on distance from the original body.

After confirming Wu Chang’s abilities, Mo Ke was very satisfied with Wu Chang’s powers. He asked Wu Chang to conjure his Clone and then used Spiritual Control to manipulate the clone to meet with Raymond ahead of time.

Before leaving, Wu Chang asked Mo Ke how he could obtain his own Essence Armor.

Mo Ke told him that the Essence Armor of a Level 9 partner is tailored according to their abilities. One must first devise several plans, then select and cultivate raw materials. Even if everything goes smoothly and there are ready-to-use materials, it would still take two to three months.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chang sighed, suspecting that he wouldn’t stay long enough at Hymn Company to receive his Essence Armor.

Thinking Wu Chang was anxious, Mo Ke tried to comfort him:

"Sometimes, waiting longer isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Perhaps soon, the crafting technique of Essence Armor might see another upgrade."

Mo Ke finished speaking and left eagerly with his clone.

Wu Chang sat alone in the office, browsing through Mo Ke’s files. Mo Ke had provided detailed information to help Wu Chang conjure his duplicate.

Since Wu Chang mentioned that the more detailed, the better for conjuring, Mo Ke was worried that ordinary photos and text might not be detailed enough. If not for Wu Chang’s strong objections, Mo Ke almost posed for a set of nude artistic photos on the spot.

Looking at the nude photos of an old man would lead to nightmares at night.

Due to Mo Ke’s attention to detail, the files he submitted were very comprehensive. Wu Chang found a surgical record within.

The Mo Ke family has congenital heart disease, difficult to cure. Initially, Hymn Company’s condition for recruiting him was to use Hymn’s black technology to cure Mo Ke’s heart disease.

The treatment method was to modify Mo Ke’s heart into a semi-mechanical one. The advantage is its effectiveness can remain strong indefinitely, with no worry of further issues. The downside is, if something caused a malfunction in the mechanical area of the heart, he’d pass out instantly and might even face life-threatening danger.

Wu Chang drummed his fingers on the desk, contemplating how he should reasonably convey this information to Raymond.

While he was thinking, he suddenly had a flash of Inspiration, sensing something amiss.

He looked at the surveillance view on the computer and noticed Fei Guang and Chiba, whom he had been monitoring, were acting strangely, slowing down and preparing something.

Did they encounter a problem, or did they tamper with the surveillance?

Either way, it warranted personal investigation.

Of course, "personal" meant to see with his own eyes, not personally.

He activated the Condensing Void into Reality Talent, and a faint, barely visible shadow appeared before him.

This shadow was precisely the one he’d seen during the Silent Route Dungeon; it possesses the abilities of shadow he’d witnessed among the players, most suited for Concealment and infiltration.

To enhance the shadow’s abilities, he shrank the shadow’s size to the minimum, minimized detail restoration, and used the maximum limit to restore the power of the shadow.

Concerned about the shadow’s abilities not being able to deceive, he added some characteristics of Spirit Bodies and Social Phobia while imagining and conjuring the shadow.

Thus, an almost transparent, presence capable of fully integrating into shadows appeared before Wu Chang.

He manipulated this shadow to head towards the area where Fei Guang and others were located, as seen in the monitoring. Their position was within the Security Department’s information center.

With the addition of Spirit Body characteristics, the shadow could not only traverse shadow areas quickly but also penetrate walls directly.

Under the dual ability boost, the shadow quickly reached the area displayed in the surveillance.
