Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 22: Six Major Categories and the Surrender of the Goblins

Gricket was not wrong. Although Nemesis possessed psychic powers comparable to those of a legendary warlock, he was still only a sixth-level psychic who could release three-ring powers. The giant astral whale could probably turn him into a black hole with just one psychic power.

After hesitating for a while, the goblin warlock took out a thick, tattered, nameless book and handed it to Nemesis.

"Sir True Dragon, this is a book of my experience in cultivating psychic powers over the years. It contains many of my insights into various psychic powers. I hope to use this book in exchange for your chance to protect the city of Bricklect."

Gricket was feeling uneasy. After seeing the scene in the astral realm, she had realized that the psychic power talent of the dragon in front of her was absolutely extremely powerful. Her book was just taking advantage of the fact that the dragon had just awakened and wanted to quickly obtain low-level psychic powers.

Nemesis raised his eyebrows. He did have this need, but it also depended on who the other party was protecting.

He wasn't going to risk his life for this book.

Psychic powers arise from the cultivation of one's own spiritual abilities through long-term rigorous self-examination and mental training. Those creatures who have overcome their inner demons and various unexpected difficulties and are able to clear their minds of distractions have learned how to awaken the hidden power in their bodies.

Psions explore their own minds to discover a wider range of powerful spiritual powers. They meditate on their memories and the nature of memories, wrestle with fragments of their own personalities, and delve into every dark corner of their minds.

"Know thyself" is not only a motto for psychics, but also a path to great power.

This is also the means for Psions to obtain psychic powers. Psions will naturally awaken some powers, such as the [Psionic Blast] mastered by the Mind Flayer.

In addition, if a psychic wants to obtain new psychic powers, he must sit still for years, waiting for a flash of inspiration to come to his mind and learn how to use it, or use a psionic stone to absorb the psychic energy in it to obtain complete psychic powers.

But the psionic stone is an extremely precious thing. It is a precious raw stone formed by the fusion of astral power and the material plane. It has the same effect as a spell scroll. It can store psychic powers in it and crush and release them when needed.

Psionic stones are extremely scarce, and their price is more than three times that of spell scrolls of the same grade. Only very wealthy psychics can afford the extravagant way of purchasing psionic stones to learn supernatural powers.

Therefore, the cheapest and most contagious way of learning is to be a warlock who has mastered a large number of psychic powers. By imparting their experience, they can help other warlocks reduce most of the time and quickly acquire the psychic powers they have mastered.

There are six major categories of psychic powers, which are:

Psychic Prophecy: Psions who specialize in psychic prophecy are called seers. Seers can discover prophetic powers to assist teammates in battle, or collect intelligence in various ways.

Psion Creation: Psions who specialize in psion creation are called shapers. Shapers have abilities that include the ability to draw ectoplasm or other matter from the astral plane to create semisolid or solid objects. These objects can be weapons, armor, or animated constructs that fight at the shaper's command.

Psychic Transmutation: Psions who specialize in psychic transmutation are called kineticists. They are masters of manipulating and transforming energy and matter. Kineticists can attack with violent bursts of energy.

Psychic Automorphosis: Psions who specialize in Psychic Automorphosis are known as Doppelgangers. Instincts include powers that alter the metabolism of the psion or creatures near him. Doppelgangers can both heal and transform into fearsome warriors.

Teleportation: A psion who relies on teleportation powers is called a telepath. A telepath can use this power to propel or move objects through time or space.

Telepathy: A psion who chooses the telepathy discipline is called a telepath. He is an expert in the power of making mental contact and controlling other sentient beings. A telepath can easily deceive or destroy the will of his enemies.

As a true dragon formed by the fusion of astral power, the bloodline of the scroll dragon and the power of the mind, the Mind Dragon is born with all the psionic powers of the mind enchantment and teleportation series, and can also obtain and use all the legendary psionic powers of these two series at the very old dragon stage!
Gricket is a warlock who practices both Transformation and Self-Shaping. Her training manual can greatly enrich Nemesis's abilities other than Teleportation and Enchanting.

Nemesis took the book and used his mental power to penetrate into the other party's consciousness, trying to find out the truth behind the commission.

"I see. Dark elves? I didn't expect that group of brain-eating monsters would disappear." Nemesis said softly.

Gricket's eyes widened. As a psychic, almost no one in the world could read her memory. This was also the reason why the telepathy department was known as the weakest in the civil war among psychics. Only when the level was suppressed could there be a chance to control the opponent.

But this dragon actually read my memory without my knowledge? !
Her eyes became fearful. No one could remain arrogant after being easily defeated in the field they are best at. At this time, the blue goblin finally surrendered to the real dragon completely.

"Yes, sir, Orindor has disappeared." Gricket said respectfully. The dark elves are one of the overlords of the Underdark, and their influence radiates almost all of the upper and middle layers of the Underdark. However, in the central and northern regions where Bricollect is located, there are almost no dark elves.

Because beneath the city of Bricklect, the north-central region of the middle Underdark is occupied by another, more terrifying race.

Mind Flayer.

The mind flayers built a huge city here - Orindor, and its influence radiates throughout the upper and middle north regions.

This is why there are no dark elves in this vast territory.

The upper area here has been defaulted as the production source of this group of mind flayer slaves.

But just a year ago, Orindor was destroyed.

Overnight, the huge dark city was destroyed by some terrible force. All creatures died instantly under some unknown force. The controller of the center of the city - a powerful mind flayer mastermind also disappeared.

With the fall of the Overlord, a huge power vacuum emerged in the area. After a long period of trial and error, the Dark Elves began to send troops into the central and northern regions.

Many cities have fallen, and only a few psionic dark cities with the presence of mind flayers are still holding on.

The city of Bricklect is just a small goblin town located in the borderland.

Although the city of Bricolect had been loyal to the Mind Flayers under the leadership of Gricket before Orindor disappeared, now their backers have fallen and danger has arrived.

A noble from the Dark Elf Matriarch family has set her sights on this place. She sent people here to demand that the city of Bricolect swear allegiance to her and demand that it pay twice as many slaves as Orindor every year.

Even with the goblins' reproductive capacity, so many sacrifices would drain the entire goblin tribe.

Volenza and Gricket have been troubled for a long time. As the leaders of the goblins, they can accept exchanging their own people for survival, but they will never accept the destruction of the entire goblin tribe for their own life and death.

This is also the reason why Gricket targeted Nemesis.

Nemesis thought for a while. The strength of the dark elves was unquestionable. Not only did they have powerful strength, they also had a massive slave army. They were undoubtedly a formidable enemy.

But if it was just a noble from the mistress's family who set their sights on this place, Juancelong believed that he could still handle it.

What's more, Gricket's training manual and this goblin city were still very tempting to him.

You know, in the past three years, the cold iron weapons have provided him with more than 40,000 gold coins in profit. If he could take over the entire city of Bricolect to work for him,
Nemesis began to drool as he imagined his nest being covered with gold coins and dotted with gems.

"This condition is not enough," Juan Celong shook his head and said majestically.

"Bricklect City has no conditions for independence, not before and not now. Submit to me and become my followers, and I will grant you asylum."

Gricket sighed when she heard this. She had long known that it was impossible for weak goblins to be independent.

"Well, at least by becoming a follower of a true dragon, I can escape the threat of genocide."

The goblin warlock knelt down, lowered her proud head, and said loyally: "I will persuade Volentha, and the city of Bricolect will serve you."
