MTL - Heroes of the Invincible Undead-Chapter 7 meditation

Following the flash of thoughts in his heart, Rhodes quickly climbed up a large tree beside the exit of the tomb. The branches of the tree are thick, and Rhode can easily stand on it.

Standing on the branch of the tree, Rhod found a dense foliage and concealment in his opinion, and at a good angle to observe the ground.

Rhode looked down. The range of tens of meters on the ground can be seen from the ground. With the eagle eye technique he learned, he can see clearly the position of each leaf on the ground. Farther away, it is impossible to see clearly because of the branches and leaves.

"This location... seems to be easily discovered..."

Yes, Rhode did not plan to escape when he judged that the Necromancer apprentice was about to return, but intended to stay and find a way to assassinate him.

Due to the characteristics of the undead creatures, for Rod, the control of the necromancer has been lost, and no more undead creatures are just cannon fodder for instinctive battles.

That is to say, as long as Rod can successfully assassinate the Necromancer, a group of undead creatures originally controlled by the Necromancer cannot pose a threat to Rod, and Rod can turn them all into his own experience points.

This is a good opportunity for the current Rod to improve his strength, but there is a little risk that Rod must successfully assassinate the returning Necromancer. Otherwise, under the control of the Necromancer, a group of tactical and coordinated undead creatures can not be easily solved.

According to Rod's idea, in order to find the timing of the assassination, there are only two suitable places for hiding. One is in the tomb, and the apprentice of the Necromancer will surely enter the tomb after discovering that someone is here. When he enters, he can find an opportunity to assassinate himself.

However, when the Necromancer enters the tomb, his vigilance is bound to rise to the highest level, and the risk of assassination failure is too great. If it is found in the tomb, it will not escape.

Another suitable place for hiding is the tree where Rod is currently. Due to the limitations of human vision, as for the branches and leaves of the tree, as long as no abnormalities are found at first glance, they will basically be ignored.

This is why Rod chose the tree as a hiding place. However, Rhode’s current position is not particularly concealed, and the branches and leaves are difficult to cover up the specific figure. Standing at the exit of the tomb and looking upwards, you can find anomalies.

Due to the overlapping of branches and leaves, the higher the selected location from the ground, the harder it is to find. However, if the position selected on the trunk is too high, once the assassination failed, it is likely to break his leg.

Due to the lack of blessings related to special skills, it is difficult for Rhode to choose the best hiding position in a short time.

Without hesitation for a long time, in order to improve the success rate of a little assassination, Rod chose to use a little skill to learn primary reconnaissance.

(Elementary Scouting: Through continuous practice, your investigative ability has been improved. You have learned to judge the enemy’s movement through various residual traces. At the same time, you also have a certain degree of how to observe the enemy safely without being detected. Experience. Detection range +2, perception +1.)

After learning elementary reconnaissance, Rod felt that he had obtained an unspeakable improvement. He did not directly inject some knowledge into his mind. This improvement of himself was more like some experience, an instinct. .

The previously selected position seems to have a lot of loopholes in Rod's view at present, not to mention that you can see it at a glance on the ground, and you can find yourself even at a distance.

Rhode hurried to another location. The new position is higher than the previous position, and the field of vision better covers all the directions to be observed. The surrounding foliage is lush, not far away is the trunk of the tree, you can use the trunk to hide yourself if necessary. Overall it is more subtle than the previous position.

Perhaps it was the acquisition of perception bonus after the reconnaissance. After sitting in the selected position on the tree trunk, Rod did not want to let the time go by. Rod was preparing for the period before the Necromancer returned. Meditation.

Meditation is the basis for unleashing magic, and is the first step for each caster when learning spells.

Meditation can expand the mana of the caster. Whether it is an orthodox spellcaster, or a black magician, or a necromancer, it takes mana to release magic. And meditation is the way to increase mana.

For players, the maximum mana value that can be achieved by meditation is generally the knowledge in the character's attributes * 10. Certain treasures and special skills can also increase the maximum mana.

Before the meditation, the maximum mana value of the ordinary caster is 0, but there are also some natural existence that have mana values, such as heroes of the mana system, and some mutant monsters.

For monsters, releasing magic is more like their natural instincts, rather than having to rely on meditation to increase mana like the caster.

Rhode sat on the trunk, ready to enter the meditation stage.

Meditation does not require a specific environment and posture, but for beginners of meditation, it is necessary to improve the quality of their meditation through some external factors. For example, in a quiet room, it can definitely arouse people's attention more than in a noisy environment, and sitting cross-legged can concentrate more than other postures.

Due to numerous meditations in previous life, meditation is not a strange behavior for Rod. The improvement in perception also allowed Rod to end meditation the first time the Necromancer apprentice returned.

Rhode closed his eyes and sat motionless on the tree. From a distance, I can only see the chest slightly fluctuating with breathing. Other than that, there was no other movement, and the whole person seemed to be still. Even if a few leaves floated on Rod, Rod did not react.

As time passed slowly, Rhode's thinking focused on his perception of himself. All the wind and the sound of various creatures around him seemed to go away, leaving only the center of his own spirit.

This is different from the decline in the perception of the outside world caused by mental distraction during drowsiness, but it naturally decreases the perception of the outside world after concentrating all the attention on the inner.

Even though the environment in the surrounding forest was still noisy, Rhode quickly entered the state.

For the beginning of meditation, the experience of the previous life is not very useful. The experience of the previous life is more about methods to improve the quality of meditation, as well as some tips for deep meditation. Being able to enter the fixed state so quickly depends more on Rhode's own will.

After entering the fixed state, Rhode's consciousness began to perceive magic elements one by one. Next, what Rhode has to do is the most important point in the meditation process, allowing his spiritual consciousness to communicate with the magic element until he can accept it.

As time slowly passed, Rhodes in meditation gradually frowned. Because Rhode's current body has no magic talent, he is not sensitive to the surrounding magical elements, and has been unable to effectively absorb the magical elements. This can not help making Rhodes a little irritated.

Fortunately, at this time, the experience of multiple meditations in the previous life was reflected. Realizing that his heart was not calm, Rod slowed down his emotions in time, even if he could not absorb the magic element temporarily, Rod was no longer impatient.

Finally, with Rod's unremitting efforts, Rod's spirit began to establish contact with the surrounding magical elements, and the magical elements began to move closer to Rod.

At this point, if Rhode sees the property panel, he will find that his mana has changed from 0/0 to 1/1.
