Full-Time Psychic Martial Artist

After laughing and smashing everything in sight, the mechanic began picking through the scattered parts, searching for anything barely usable, and then using his magical tools to perform secondary processing.

Seeing that the Mechanist had started working, the beastman leader immediately slipped away without saying a word.

One of the two orc guards turned around and began to observe how the mechanic worked on the parts—this was the second greatest pleasure in his tedious guarding job.

Nelly successfully sneaked to a distance of 7 meters from the Mechanist.

Instead of getting any closer, she found a relatively safe shady spot to accumulate shadow energy, while mentally simulating and rehearsing over and over again which method would have the highest success rate for the assassination.

The wooden parts scattered all over the ground became a considerable obstacle.

If she accidentally steps on a part when she gets close to the Mechanist, she will definitely be spotted by the orc guards immediately.

So Nelly slowly straightened up, looking down at the scattered parts from a higher perspective, searching for every gap where she could step, and calculating in her mind the safest and most efficient assassination route.

The 14 seconds passed quickly.

Nelly had already amassed her Shadow Energy, and the optimal assassination route was already planned out in her mind.

So she slowly and silently took a deep breath, bent down and squatted down, preparing for a sprint, and then suddenly burst into action.

Unfortunately, the orc guards lacked true vision, otherwise he would have seen it:

The petite figure of the dark elf girl was swift and agile. She tapped her toes three times in the narrow space exposed by the parts, then suddenly accelerated and shot straight toward the mechanic.

She crossed her wrists, forming a pincer shape with two reverse-gripped daggers. The daggers, coated with black particles, precisely pierced the mechanic's eye sockets, penetrated his brain, broke through the back of his skull, and revealed two small sections of the dagger tips.

The black particles instantly eroded the mechanic's brain, flesh, and bones. The girl suddenly exerted force with her arms, and the two daggers sliced ​​through the nasal root bone between her eyes like pliers, continuing to cut to both sides without slowing down, breaking through all obstacles until her arms were outstretched.

The assassination was completed, and the moment the girl appeared, she used [Shadow Guard Teleport] to return to Lorne's side.

The orc guard who "witnessed" the entire assassination process only saw a small black figure flash past the mechanic, drawing two black arcs forward, and the mechanic's head above the eyes was cut off.

……

Inside the orc tent, Lorne pressed his left hand to the ground with his fingers spread, while his right hand gripped an orc dagger in reverse, rapidly stabbing it repeatedly between his fingers to relieve his "fast-handed thirst syndrome."

Suddenly, he sensed through the telepathic ability of the Shadow Guard Mark that Nelly had teleported into his shadow.

"Did you succeed?" Lorne asked telepathically.

"Yes, it worked." Nelly responded immediately, her voice still soft and sweet with a touch of naivety, completely unlike an assassin who had just completed a high-difficulty assassination mission.

"Well done! Let's get out of here before they start sealing off and searching." Lorne said, quickly getting up and leaving the tent.

"Okay, sure."

As Lorne had predicted, alarm horns sounded immediately after the mechanic's death in the orc camp.

However, it will take a short time from when the alarm sounds until the lockdown and search are fully underway.

Lorne, with his level 7 Rogue's [Swiftness] and a high Agility of 30, managed to leave the camp just before the blockade was completed.

You have completed the campaign event [Assassinate the Mechanist], gaining 80 x 10 experience points. (1500/1000)

You have accumulated enough experience to level up.

As soon as he entered the north gate of Beilin Fortress, Lorne switched back to his original body and completed the upgrade.

~~~

Your 'Psionicist' skill level has been raised to 10, and your subclass 'Construction' skill level has been raised to 1.

+1 to base attribute points, +5 to maximum health, +10 to maximum stamina, and +20 to maximum mana.

You can choose to learn one spell below the first level.

……

[Psychic Power] (Level 10 Psychic)

You have learned psychokinesis.

Your telekinetic power = [Psionicist Level / 3].

Telekinesis can be used as both a means of action and a mental force.

……

[Refining Structure] (Refining Level 1)

By consuming a small amount of mana, you can change the shape and structure of matter as you wish.

You can restore an object to its original state, but you need to prepare the materials needed for the repair.

When you possess [Psionic Sensing], you can perfectly replicate an item, including magical items, provided you have sufficient materials.

~~~

This "telekinesis" is pretty good; even martial artists can benefit from it.

As Lorne pondered, he casually added the newly acquired 1 point of basic attribute to [Constitution]. A warm current surged through his body again, and he instantly felt stronger.

May the goddess bless the elves!

May the goddess bless the elves!

Along the way from the north gate of the fortress to the command room, the elves greeted Lorne with the Senesion War Spirit salute, and Lorne returned the salute earnestly to each of them.

As he approached the command center, he saw a long-lost figure—Salovell.

Saloville had been helping the elves of the northern forest evacuate safely, and then Lorne sent him to Senes to deliver intelligence. The two hadn't seen each other for three days.

Now that Salowell is back, it means he has completed his mission and most likely brought back reinforcements or good news.

"Comrade Saloville, you're back," Lorne greeted with a smile.

Saloville heard Lorne's footsteps as he entered and immediately turned around, forcing a smile: "Comrade Lorne, it's been a long time."

Lorne noticed Saloville's micro-expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Saloville gave a wry smile and said, "I sent the latest intelligence to the Holy Capital and met with the elders of the Supreme Council, but..."

"No reinforcements, is that right?" Lorne finished the second half of Saloville's sentence, which he was trying to carefully choose his words for.

"I'm afraid so." Saloville sighed and began to explain the reasons in detail:

"Seven days ago, the 'Abnormal Eating' divine disaster broke out in the Philica province of the Ganeh Federation, and the West Cloud Fortress even observed a swarm of flying dragons."

"Holy City was worried that the 'divine calamity' and the 'dragon scourge' would invade the western provinces at the same time, so it deployed all the available troops there in advance."

"Upon learning of the situation here, the Holy Capital immediately dispatched 2 elite troops to provide support."

"But the portal to Cuiyin City has been paralyzed due to the Nightmare Calamity."

"Therefore, this force can only be teleported to Moriyama Castle. From there, it will take at least seven days and at most ten days to trek here."

Lorne listened attentively, his eyes narrowing slightly. After a moment of silent thought, he asked, "Where are they now?"

"They should have just arrived in Moonlit City," Salowell said.

"Did you teach them the Senesion War Spirit?" Lorne asked again.

"They've been taught it. Not just them, but all the southwestern troops should have learned it by now. It's the Supreme Council that's promoting the spread of the Seneson War Spirit. I estimate that in another month, all elven troops will have mastered the Seneson War Spirit."

At this point, Saloville carefully took out a mithril ring from his dimensional bag, knelt on one knee, and solemnly presented it to Lorne with both hands:

"This is the coronation ring that the Supreme Council asked me to give you. The formal coronation ceremony will be held later when the time is right."

"In short, once you wear this ring, you will gain supreme command of the Northern War Zone. After the battle ends, you will receive even more authority when you go to the Holy City for your formal coronation ceremony."

Upon hearing this, Kovina and Seina, who were standing nearby, also knelt down on one knee, their posture devout and respectful.

Nerihou stood to the side without reacting. She knew that the chosen ones only knelt before their own god.

Seeing that her parents were standing, Xue Ling straightened her chest and squatted down properly, raising her fluffy little head high, looking like she was saying, "The three of us are really awesome."
