This isn't a souls-like game at all.

In the early and middle stages, it is enough for the Extreme Mage school to focus on 30.

After all, magic damage is already high, and the amount of mana restored is also high, which can be said to greatly increase the magician's endurance in continuous combat!

"According to a rough estimate, my actual blue bar should be over 600 now." Ye Yiyi thought.

Of course, this is the total amount of mana when a tube of mana is actually consumed in battle with the bonus of the attack mana recovery effect.

If it is magic with continuous attack effects, such as shining magic torrent or other cannon-type magic, the effect will be even more powerful.

As long as the enemy is not dead, you can keep using it until the enemy dies, and even the mana bar can be restored!

"It's just that I don't seem to have found that kind of magic that can be cast continuously... Although combat skills can also attack and restore mana, when it comes to exclusive combat skills like Universal Light, the mana consumption is actually not important..."

In other words, the restriction on Ye Yiyi's continuous maximization of output has been transformed from the blue bar to the durability of the weapon.

Once a weapon is completely damaged, it will be difficult to repair it.

With a slight sigh, he began to add points to the Power.

Level 98 → 101↑

Faith 20→23↑

With the faith point reaching 23 and the 3-point faith bonus from the priest's crown, Ye Yiyi can use a lot more hymns.

For example, the [Divine Flame] given by Astraea during the first invasion, the [God-Calling Arrow Rain] given by the Holy Blood Cult, the [Entwined Branches] given by the Earth Hymn, and the [Wild Hunt] given by the Beast Shepherds.

Most of these are hymns with functional or auxiliary effects. For Ye Yiyi, the more the better.

"First, raise your Faith to 25, then go back to Big Beard and ask him to teach you the [Eternal Oath of Glory]. After that, you can raise your Strength to 70."

The [Glorious Eternal Vow] of the Glorious Virgin Mary's faith is the most versatile damage-increasing hymn in the game, and it can be said to be very useful in any situation.

"almost."

After adding the points, Ye Yiyi opened his eyes, nodded to the Saint, and left the Cursed Hall and returned to the holy monument at the Plantation Research Institute in Panyalong City.

There was no one in the circular hall. I guess Angel and the others had Xiaoyu to protect them, so they didn't encounter any problems.

After taking a glance at the thriving tassels, he took the elevator to the outside world and found everyone sitting in front of the gate of the Botanical Research Institute.

"Why are you all gathered here? Where's Xiaoyu?"

Ye Yiyi looked around but did not see the figure of Baishou Youyu.

Angel and Suke looked up and pointed behind him with strange expressions.

When he looked back, he found that the little fish was sticking out its tentacles from the deep blue mist and was quietly poking his shoulder.

Seeing Ye Yiyi suddenly turn around, it quickly retracted its tentacles into the mist, like a child who had been caught playing a prank.

"Uh……"

Ye Yiyi raised an eyebrow and looked back at Angel, "It didn't cause any trouble while I was gone, did it?"

"?"

The little fish understood what he said and couldn't help but stretch out its tentacles and wave them in protest angrily.

"No, sir, it obeys you very well."

Aratron closed the book in his hand, stood up and smiled gently.

"To be honest, observing the stars so closely is a rare experience for me. I found that it..."

"Little fish."

Ye Yiyi nodded to the dead magician,

"That's the nickname I gave it. Its real name is Hundred-Handed Fish."

After hearing Ye Yiyi introduce himself for it, the little fish forgot its anger and wrapped its tentacles around his body affectionately.

"A Hundred Hands Swimming Fish... a small fish."

Aratron nodded, watching the scene with envy, and continued with the previous topic:

"I discovered that Little Fish seems to be very different from other stars, especially in terms of wisdom and intellect."

Ye Yiyi was also very interested in the little fish's situation. When he heard what the stargazer said, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Oh? How exactly?"

"Compared to other stars, the appearance of stars has no specific connection with their inner nature." Alatron pointed to the dark, starless sky.

"For example, the two-winged Pegasus I often observe. Although it has the appearance of a horse, that's limited to its appearance. Its inner self is more like a comet."

"comet?"

Perhaps because the Pegasus also had wings, Angel was also very interested in this topic. Upon hearing this, he couldn't help but spread his wings and revealed a look full of curiosity.

"Yes, comet." Alatron looked at Angel with appreciation, as if he was very satisfied with his eyes.

"It's like a comet, orbiting a fixed circular orbit with the Day-Moon Tower as its center, every 82 days..."

"What does this have to do with comets?" Suk interrupted in confusion. "I thought the star would go boom and crash to the ground."

"..." Alatron glanced at Suke silently with a stern look as if he was looking at a fool.

"Suke, you're talking about meteorites... Simply put, meteorites are the ones that hit the ground, meteors burn up on their way down, and comets are celestial bodies that orbit the sun. There's a huge difference between them."

Ye Yiyi glanced back and forth at the two of them, fearing that Alatron would suddenly raise his staff and beat Suke into a rat cake, so he casually explained.

"Is there... any difference?" Su Ke scratched his head with his short hands.

When Alatron heard Ye Yiyi's explanation earlier, he nodded with a smile. Now when he heard Suke's speech again, he couldn't help but clench his staff, and suddenly a black air emerged from his pale dead face!

"...The difference is huge, just like the difference between a flying dragon, an ancient dragon, and a stone and gold earth dragon."

Ye Yiyi's mouth twitched, and he thought that the relationship between believers and magicians was indeed highly related to their level of knowledge.

Seeing Su Ke's eyes light up, he was afraid that it would say something shocking again, so he simply interrupted it.

"Okay, shut up and listen to what I have to say."

"Uh, oh..." Su Ke had no choice but to swallow the words in his throat.

"Huh..." Alatron exhaled slightly and shook his head, but he lost interest and simply concluded:

"In short, those stars are similar to plants and will respond to stimuli, such as fighting back attacks from flying dragons, but they have no intelligence.

"And the little fish...it's alive, just like us, no, even more advanced than us humans."

The stargazer looked at the Hundred-Handed Fish that was clinging to Ye Yiyi and acting coquettishly, his eyes full of admiration.

"I think only you, Lord Ancient Dragon, who is also a high-level creature, can subdue him, right?"

No, it has nothing to do with being high class, and I don’t know how I became popular with the stars.

Ye Yiyi turned around and looked at Xiaoyu, who was feeling very proud when hearing the compliment, in order to hide the embarrassment on her face.

"By the way, I want to collect some of the dust that only stars drop. Aratron, do you know how to do that?"

Alatron smiled at the words and reached into his robes to pull out a delicate glass tube.

"It just so happened that a star fell earlier, and I collected some stardust on my way here... Please take a look, sir."

"oh?!"

Ye Yiyi's eyes lit up, and he took the glass tube and looked down at the light curtain.

Shadow Stardust

Chapter 371: The Three Elements of the Celestial Body and the [Tangled Celestial Pillar]

Shadow Stardust

Item Description: The embodiment of the astral remnants,

The dust scattered by the stars.

One of the materials used to make props,

It can also be used to make rainbow mist bottles with special effects.

Or consume concentration points and throw it forward,

Creates a dark nebula that can conceal your form.

The lightless dark shadow can block all light and direction.

Stars shed stardust as they fall.

It is said that this was the cause of death of the celestial survivors.

It is also the reappearance of dangerous forces in the universe.

After reading the item description, Ye Yiyi couldn't help but frown slightly and fell into deep thought.

The effect of this prop was beyond his expectations. Not only was it the material for making props and rainbow mist bottles, it could even be used directly as a smoke bomb.

Of course, this "dark nebula" sounds much more impressive than smoke bombs or something like that.

“But it still doesn’t explain what the Star Relics are. We only know that after they die, they become stars.

“And the power that killed the celestial remnants is the reappearance of the dangerous forces in the universe.

He raised his head thoughtfully and looked at Aratron who was looking at him.

"Is there any dangerous force in the universe?"

"A dangerous force?"

The stargazer was slightly startled. He pondered for a moment, leaning on his staff, and then asked tentatively:

"I wonder if the dangerous force you mentioned, sir, has any specific characteristics?"

"Features, um..."

Ye Yiyi glanced at the light curtain again and repeated, "For example, the lightless dark shadow can block all light and direction?"

"You mean the Shadow Nebula?" Aratron suddenly understood.

"Shadow Nebula? Shadow Stardust?"

Ye Yiyi looked at the name of the item in surprise. If it wasn't a coincidence, the prefix of Stardust's name would refer to the specific cause of death of the stellar survivors.

"What is a nebula?" Angel asked curiously.

"A nebulous celestial body composed of gas and dust, which is a common celestial body in the universe."

Alatron explained, "As for the Shadow Nebula, it specifically refers to a special type of nebula that cannot be seen with the naked eye and is completely hidden in the universe."

"Can't see it with the naked eye? How did you discover this kind of nebula?" Angel asked again.

"By the meaning of their existence."

Stargazer looked directly into Angel's eyes and said something incomprehensible.

"The meaning of existence?"

Angel felt a little confused, and then he heard Alatron continue speaking.

"In the days before the invention of the telescope, stargazers observed the sky with their naked eyes..."

"Are you referring to the [stargazing] in star magic?" Ye Yiyi asked thoughtfully.

"That's right, but that's just the most basic method of stargazing. Beyond that, we'll also use various spiritual enhancement tools to establish connections with various celestial bodies."

"Spiritual? Connection?"

Ye Yiyi thought of the [Observer Enhanced Lens] in the four-dimensional chrysanthemum. The bearded man said that it was a natural lens picked from a star called "Watcher". It can enhance the user's clairvoyance and thus establish a connection with the star.

"Establishing a connection... for what?"

"For information," said Aratron.

"Because celestial bodies not only exist in space, they also have 'symbolism', 'meaning' and 'value'.

"The former is at the level of objective reality, while the latter three are subjective meanings given by humans, that is, what does this star or celestial body represent to the many beings who look up at it.

“In astronomy, this is called the three celestial elements.

“And by searching for the three elements of a specific celestial body, one can establish a spiritual connection with the celestial body and thus find its place among the vast sea of ​​stars.”

"Can you watch the stars like this?" Ye Yiyi was amazed.
