Chapter 4 Five Major Schools
Chapter 4 Five Major Schools
Following the flow of people through the last stone archway, the first hall of the Pyramid of Futap suddenly appeared before his eyes.
The dome, composed of countless crystal prisms, refracts a soft, psychic light, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime.
On the obsidian floor, polished to a mirror-like finish, thousands of crystal coffins are arranged in a regular pattern.
The moment Li Wei scanned the area, he sensed that these individual crystal coffins were interconnected, forming a massive psionic array.
Based on his knowledge of the wizarding world and the psionic knowledge of the Phoenix School, he could not determine what the formation was used for.
But as Li Wei passed by a crystal coffin, he saw Astartes inside, his eyes closed and his face pale.
But the physical body remained intact and undamaged.
Li Wei thus realized that this was a formation that could temporarily suppress the mutation of flesh and blood.
Li Wei walked calmly toward the center of the hall, where there was a high platform made of obsidian.
Magnus then removed his magnificent scholar's robes, revealing a practical crimson outfit, and stood atop the high platform.
His face, as if cast in bronze, held a pair of amber eyes that showed a hint of weariness, but also a surge of excitement, as if he had finally found hope of breaking the curse.
Li Wei followed the crowd to the area of the Fire Phoenix School below the platform, where about a dozen scholars of the Fire Phoenix School were already discussing things in hushed tones.
"The Archmage said that we need to cooperate and the five major sects work together to heal the flesh mutations of these Thousand Sons Warriors."
"With a Grand Magister personally guiding us, and considering we are the elites of the five major schools, what problem in this world can't we solve?"
"Hmph, easy for you to say. These five major schools usually operate independently, and now that they've been hastily assembled, it's a miracle they don't run into any trouble."
......
Li Wei listened quietly in the crowd, not saying a word, but occasionally glancing at Magnus, who was beaming with excitement on the platform.
My thoughts drifted away.
He did not have high hopes that Magnus would find a way to break the Thousand Sons flesh mutation.
Since Magnus's eyes are now intact, it means that the solution he found is absolutely unworkable.
If Tzeentch's curse, one of the four Warp Gods, were so easy to resolve, Magnus wouldn't have had a chance to deal with it.
If it were really that simple...
Before the Emperor's expeditionary fleet even reached Prospero, the Emperor personally dealt with the Thousand Sons' flesh mutation.
Although the Emperor may not be very humane, he has always spared no effort in reclaiming humanity's lost territories and unifying the galaxy.
The warriors of the Thousand Sons are a formidable fighting force that the Emperor cannot afford to abandon.
"Huh? Where's the Emperor?"
Li Wei looked around and then noticed that the emperor's dazzling figure was nowhere to be seen.
In this situation, the emperor should theoretically be present.
However, in some of the halls, in the tall pillars, corners, and shadowy places, a group of tall female warriors with knives at their waists were discovered.
"The Silent Sisters!"
The moment Li Wei noticed those women, an instinctive sense of apprehension and unease suddenly overwhelmed him.
As expected of the nemesis of psionicists, even though they were far away and hadn't released any psionic suppression fields, the moment I saw them, I felt a sense of oppression emanating from my very soul.
About ten minutes later, no more scholars entered the entrance to the lobby on the first floor.
Magnus looked at the scholars from the five major schools gathered below the platform and nodded with satisfaction.
This is the elite force he has trained in Prospero over the decades.
Then he began to speak:
"Scholars, I have gathered you here today to save my offspring and break the blood and flesh curse of the Thousand Sons Legion."
As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and one after another, pale golden orbs of light made of psionic energy suddenly appeared and flew to the tops of the teams from various academic sects.
At the same time, he loudly assigned the tasks:
"The Black Crow School is responsible for predicting the future."
"The Fire Phoenix School is responsible for burning mutated flesh and blood."
"The Bright Feather School is responsible for examining the mutated parts."
"The Sky Owl School is responsible for communication among all its members."
"The Falcon School is responsible for assisting in energy channeling."
Li Wei gazed at the shimmering ball of light, and the instant it reached his head, he received a surge of psychic knowledge.
He carefully examined it and discovered that it was a complex psionic surgery that required the cooperation of five major schools of thought.
However, apart from the Fire Phoenix School's psionic techniques, the other four major schools' psionic techniques only cover the parts required.
However, Li Wei was shocked at this moment. He had already found out the value of this incomplete psionic surgery, which was a full 1,000 hub points.
At this moment, Li Wei's mindset completely changed, and he suddenly felt that becoming a Thousand Sons Warrior was not a bad thing.
Because he had already determined what the Infiltrator System needed most: it only needed knowledge, not those flashy but impractical treasures.
As expected of the wizarding world, it truly only adheres to the principle of knowledge above all else.
As long as he accompanies Magnus on the Great Expedition, he will have the opportunity to acquire a continuous stream of psionic knowledge.
In particular, one would like to have the opportunity to view the psychic tome, The Book of Magnus, which Magnus compiled during the Great Crusade.
He suspected that if he sold the knowledge in this book to the system, he could obtain a massive amount of hub points, which would definitely give him a chance to glimpse the realm of legendary wizards.
Legendary wizards are beings who truly rival gods.
As for the issue of becoming a Thousand Sons warrior and being targeted by Tzeentch, Li Wei has already stated that he doesn't care.
He already suspected that he was being targeted by Tianqi.
It wasn't just the issue of his guardian spirit disappearing without a trace; it was also because he was a psionic scholar under Magnus's command and was already under Tzeentch's watchful eye.
At the moment when Li Wei was lost in thought.
Hundreds of psionic scholars from the five major schools of thought began to form their own teams of five, and according to Magnus's allocation plan, they found their targets and performed surgeries.
Li Wei took a deep breath and, along with the other four scholars, went to a crystal coffin not far from the high platform.
"Everyone, keep your mind focused on the second level of mental state. We will soon begin the psionic surgery using a telepathic connection."
"Oh, and also, keep your spiritual energy normal so I don't discover your inner secrets. Of course, trust me, even if I did, I wouldn't say anything."
A voice suddenly rang in Li Wei's mind, and Li Wei's gaze unconsciously turned to his left, to the tall man in the blue robe, who was smiling and had a kind face.
These are scholars from the Sky Owl School. Unlike the Fire Phoenix School, which specializes in fire-based spiritual energy, their members are most skilled in mind control and can even use "spiritual energy" to peer into the memories of others.
As for the second level of mind he mentioned, Li Wei was very familiar with it; it was a unique mind system created by Magnus in his study of the psionic system.
This psychic mental state system has ten levels, each with its own unique uses.
Li Wei had actually maintained the sixth level of mental state the whole time, using it to calm his mind and keep his emotions stable.
To prevent other psychics from spying on your "spirit energy" and probing your emotions and even memories.
However, Li Wei was not worried about having his memories spied on during this mind-linking surgery. He pinched a gray wooden block on his chest.
This is the mental shielding rune that Li Wei obtained last night after selling all his psychic knowledge.
It can effectively prevent others from peeping into your memories, and it can also construct virtual memories for others to view.
Of course, this piece of wood is of average quality, and the virtual memory it creates is basically a lump that cannot be examined closely, but it is enough to deceive most scholars of the Sky Owl School.
