Chapter 2758 Self-Directed and Self-Acted
Ever since he accidentally obtained the "Dividing Mystery Technique" many years ago, Qiao An has started professional training in dual-purpose distraction.
Later, he awakened the "Mythical Link" and "Mythical Distraction" involving distraction and multi-purpose. With the powerful multi-threaded parallel computing ability derived from his own super high intelligence attribute, he has accumulated rich practical experience and has already mastered distraction and multi-purpose. Now let alone two-line operation, ten-line operation is also very easy.
As long as the viewing angle is switched fast enough and the thinking speed can keep up, the main body and the avatar can be controlled almost perfectly to execute different commands. It looks like two creatures with independent thinking ability, doing their own thing.
Using this kind of professional skills, Joan can let her avatar accept Metatron's invitation in the name of Gnostic to join the slave hunting team organized by her.
At the same time, his own body, as a human being, notified Medea in advance to guard against the sneak attack of the mind flayer, and personally came to the scene to support.
After the conflict between the two parties broke out, Joan's main body and clone pretended to fight, put on a good show for Metatron, pretended to inadvertently mess up the slave hunting operation, and persuaded Metatron as a Gnostic Wouldn't it be beautiful for Long to retreat when he knew the difficulty, and the two parties in the conflict would stop fighting, turn hostility into friendship, and return to their respective homes?
The more Joan thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was great, and there was still room for further optimization.
For example, instead of appearing as "Dr. Vader", it is better to steal the show as "Magic Eye Arcanist" Mitra, so as to avoid "Dr. Long waited for the mind flayer to think about it, and it might cause trouble in the future.
Mithra form has no worries.
As the saying goes, "If there are too many lice, don't be afraid to bite". Anyway, beholders and mind flayers have long been sworn enemies. Mind flayers always harass beholders. It is only natural for beholders to kill halfway to make trouble for mind flayers. Tron and the others were annoyed, but they didn't think much about it.
Then, Joan thought of another thing.
If it wasn't for the accidental letter from Metatron, she would have been sent to Huayuan Township to visit her old friend by now, and help Mr. Mancini lift the "imprisonment technique" by the way.
Having said that, Mr. Mancini is very good, why is he sealed in the depths of the earth?
Isn't that all the fault of the mind flayers!
In fact, the "Mythical Moss Lord" Mancini was originally created by the mind flayers of Odys.
Back in Huayuan Township, Joan heard Mancini talk about this unbearable past, and vaguely remembered that the leader who presided over the creation of the Moss Lord was Noah, the legendary mastermind of Odis, and the two former elders of the Cardinal Council—Sa Meyer and Abe—both are the main creators of the project. It is unknown whether Metatron was involved.
The mind flayers did not create the moss lord out of good intentions. When they were created, they used him as a slave and thug, forcing Mancini to act as an accomplice for the mind flayers to conquer the various nations of the underground world and brutally suppress the rebels.
Later, Mancini couldn't stand this kind of life of killing innocent people and bloody hands, so he had the idea of rebellion, and finally fled to Huayuan Township, but was still hunted down by his former masters. Sealed, so far not free.
Mr. Mancini and the mind flayers of Odis are old enemies with deep hatred!
Joan naturally thought that after he went to Huayuan Township to unseal Mancini, he would reveal the mind flayer's plan to attack the Temple of Silence. With new hatred and old hatred, Mancini, Insect Master and others would definitely rush to help Silence Allies of the Temple, unite against Metatron's slave hunters.
With the assistance of Mancini and the people in Huayuan Township, the safety of Medea and Gray Bird is even more guaranteed.
After making up her mind, Joan wrote back to Metatron and made an appointment to meet her at her stone pagoda.
Next, Joan switched the main perspective to the avatar in the Odis Stone Tower, as the "Faster" Gnostic, waiting for the visit of the "Spiritual Princess" Metatron.
...
In Odis, the "soul-absorbing city" full of towers, an inconspicuous three-story stone tower stands on the edge of the city. Through the window of the study on the second floor, faint psychic brilliance can be faintly seen.
The owner of the stone tower, the "Faster" Gnostic, is Joan's avatar placed in Odis. At this moment, he is sitting in front of the desk, pretending to read a scroll.
Compared with other mind flayers who call themselves "citizens" in Odis, Gnostics are inferior "vagrants", deprived of most political rights, not allowed to settle in urban areas, and belong to "transparent people" in the social field.
This dishonorable identity, on the contrary, brought convenience to Qiao An. He could stay at home justifiably, declare to the outside world that he would focus on magic and psionic practice, and enjoy a secluded life behind closed doors and thanking guests.
The Gnostics only had one fairly close friend in Odis, the current cardinal dean, Elder Metatron, and this was the only guest who would take the initiative to visit from time to time.
Mind flayers are born with dark vision and can read books in the dark without lighting equipment. However, there is still a psionic candlestick that emits soft light on Joan's desk. The main function is not lighting, but through the light and color. Changes, showing the current time, like a luminous hourglass.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, there was a knock on the door outside the study, followed by the voice of the dwarf butler Tam.
"Master, Master Metatron is here, and he said that he has made an appointment with you to meet at home."
"Got it, Tam, take her upstairs."
Joan quickly checked his attire and confirmed that he had been blessed with the "mythical camouflage". Details such as physical attributes and professional level were forged seamlessly. Even under the detection of "true seeing", he stood up and opened the door Greet guests.
"Dear Gnostic brother, long time no see, how are you doing?"
Metatron, the only "spiritual princess" who was active as a woman in the city of Odis, wore a spotless white moisturizing suit, climbed up the stairs with a smile, and stretched out her arms to hug Joan.
"Let's make do, it's still the same."
Joann stepped forward to embrace Metatron, kissing her cheek with her tentacles, and accepting her warm hugs and close kisses at the same time.
"Why do you look listless? Are you unhappy dating me?"
After the polite hug, Joan lowered his arms, but Metatron still hugged him affectionately, with a coquettish look in his eyes.
"I'm not unhappy. It's probably because I have been too focused on learning spells these days, and I just came back to my senses, and I seem to be absent-minded."
Joan replied pretending to be calm.
"You're still working so hard, Brother Gnostic, you don't feel bored when you stay at home all day studying psionic and arcane arts." Metatron looked at him with a smile, "Have you improved your professional level after such a hard practice? Already?"
