From Prisoner to Si Chen..

Chapter 437 Heavy Rain
This ability can also be displayed on the panel.

I saw several entry options appear in the colorful frame in front of me:

"brightness."

"shadow."

"volume."

“Resolution.”

“The level of customization.”

Gilan looked at the panel and chuckled:
"It's really the same as the settings in the game, but it's much simpler."

He used his mind to click on the first "Brightness" option, and the initial node was located in the middle of 1-100, "50".

Gillan tried to lower it, bringing it down to 0.

An invisible mysterious magnetic field suddenly descended, and the entire room quickly fell into pitch darkness at a speed almost visible to the naked eye.

Even the light from the desk lamp and the moonlight coming in from the window disappeared.

It was as if I was swallowed up by the darkness.

But surprisingly, Gillan could still sense the lamp and the moonlight... It seemed that in such an environment, he could choose not to be affected.

'This is equivalent to forming a field centered on myself that I can adjust at will, and outsiders in this field will be affected.'

Jilan thought to himself that this was amazing.

Then he tried to increase the brightness to 100.

In an instant, the originally pitch-black room became as bright as day...but there was no trace of the light source, as if the light appeared out of thin air.

But Gillan knew that this was an extraordinary effect caused by the special magnetic field of the "panel" substance, formed through unknown principles.

In the eyes of ignorant people, it is a miracle.

It seemed that the light in the room was too dazzling, making the trees outside the window appear silvery white. Jilan quickly drew the curtains and adjusted the "brightness" back to the normal "50".

'If you adjust the brightness unexpectedly, you might be able to achieve an effect similar to a flash bomb, blinding the enemy when they are caught off guard.'

Gillan thought.

Based on this idea, he tried to adjust the remaining options.

The adjustment of "shadow" is more like a tampering of reality. It can erase the existing shadow or create non-existent shadow.

"Resolution" can blur an object, making it unclear to the eye.

"Volume" is more intuitive. If it is adjusted to 0, it can completely silence the area around Gilan.

As for the final "degree of customization", it is to adjust the scope of this "field".

After some exploration, Jilan found that the smallest range could be reduced to 1 meter in diameter around the body, and the largest could cover about 20 meters.

He was quite excited about this.

'Among the three abilities of this original fifth-order essence derived from "Colorful", this "environmental setting" is the most helpful in actual combat.'

Imagine if during a battle, you suddenly adjusted the environment, turned up the "brightness" and "volume" to the maximum, and then reduced the "shadow" and "resolution" to zero, and just created some noise, you could confuse the enemy's senses and create a big flaw.

Or the other way around, creating a dark area without light and sound, blinding the enemy's senses and creating an unexpected effect...

'The ability of the essence is not only available by calling up the panel, but can also be controlled by the mind alone, which is also convenient for actual combat.'

The more Gillan thought about it, the more he felt that there was a lot of room for further development of this ability.

Suddenly, he noticed that the ball of primordial light deep in his soul was moving slightly.

An inexplicable intuition came over me.

Although Jilan was confused, he followed his instinct and took out a palm-sized crystal ball.

This folded space creation is the "Ether Bubble", a gift from Miss Menis to Lemaybe.

The "alchemical leather pocket" that was originally used to store miscellaneous items has been eliminated and left idle by Jilan, and he plans to find a time to sell it.

All the items in the leather pocket were moved into the crystal ball. It had a storage space as big as a warehouse, which was more than enough for Jilan to store some sundries.

He raised his hand and waved it, and the crystal ball began to glow, with glass beads flying out from it from small to large.

The bead fell into Jilan's palm.

This is the pure energy that was decomposed and reconstructed by alchemy from the elf "Puk" in the movie "Pan", which also contains a hint of "power of fiction".

Gilan's intuition told him that the Essence was eager for this small glass ball...

"How do I use it?" He frowned and murmured. "I don't think I'll swallow it."

After a little thought, Gilan followed his heart, closed his eyes, and sank his consciousness into the kingdom of the mind.

He walked straight to the hollow in the middle of the open-air stone temple and stood before the bonfire of the Cross Sword, the seal of the kingdom.

Immediately, he raised his hand and threw it.

Tiny glass beads then fell into the fire.

This pure energy was absorbed by the mind without any hindrance, and at the same time, through the "Mad King" on the throne, obvious feedback appeared -

The "Mad King" Iros suddenly stood up.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the night sky.

The black and red cape draped over his shoulders fluttered in the strong wind.

Boom! !
There was a sudden and extremely dull thunder!

Ji Lan's expression changed.

'That damn hallucination again?!'

He looked up at the night sky in his dream and actually caught a glimpse of some flickering purple and white lightning.

My pupils couldn't help but shrink.

"My mental problems should have been completely resolved by sealing my personality when I was promoted to the second-level "Anchor"..."

'Why did it happen again?'

"Is it that pure energy... no, is it the so-called "fictitious power" that caused it?"

Gillan was puzzled.

Boom! !
Another deafening thunder!

Gillan woke up suddenly.

He turned his head in disbelief, then took a few steps forward and rushed to the window.

wow——

When he opened the curtains, Jillian suddenly noticed that dark clouds had appeared out of nowhere in the night sky outside the apartment, covering the originally bright moonlight.

The dark cloud was not large in area, but it was flashing with lightning.

Then, a faint sound of exclamations and conversations came into Gilan's ears. He heard it clearly, and it came from the room upstairs.

It seemed to be the voices of two maids:

"Isa, were you also awakened by the thunder?"

"Um……"

After a rustling sound.

"Bisca, it looks like it's going to rain heavily. Have you collected the young master's clothes?"

"Ah, I saw the weather forecast and it said it won't rain today..."

"The weather forecast has been accurate for a few times, why don't you go quickly? Oh, I'll go with you... If the young master's clothes get wet, Mr. Charles will definitely scold us!"

"Hurry up!"

Immediately followed by a series of thudding footsteps.

Jilan frowned, tightened his grip on the curtain, and took a deep breath.

"I didn't expect that this was not an illusion, and it was brought from the dream into reality..." He murmured, staring up at the night sky.

The clouds were getting thicker and thicker, and the rumbling sound was endless. It seemed that a heavy rain would fall in the next second.

Many of the lights in the surrounding single-family apartments were on, as if the residents inside were awakened by the loud thunder.

The whispers of men and women made Jilan very sure that this sudden sign of heavy rain was real and could be seen and heard by others.

At the same time, it was brought by him!
Not an illusion!

"Colorful, panel."

Jilan called out in a deep voice.

A colorful light flashed, and a panel appeared.

Soon, when he called up his essence ability "Environmental Settings", he was stunned.

The four options of "Brightness", "Shadow", "Volume" and "Resolution" seemed to be confused, and the numbers were jumping wildly.

It seems to be out of control.

And in the "Degree of Customization" column, it actually shows the number "1000", which is ten times beyond the limit.

At the same time, there is a new option with flashing colorful lights, named——

"Rainstorm Area"!
Jilan was surprised and clicked it to take a look.

The description of this new ability is very easy to understand. It is triggered by the "Mad King" of the Kingdom of the Mind and resonates with the original ability of "Environmental Setting".

Through the influence of the "power of fiction", the illusions carried by the "Mad King" are materialized.

This so-called rainstorm field has a strong amplification effect on Jilan, but for outsiders in the field, it will be weakened to a certain extent.

As one grows stronger, the other declines, which can be described as powerful.

"It's an enhanced version of the 'environmental setting', which directly transforms the crazy hallucinations of the sealed personality into a field battlefield..."

Jilan suddenly understood and looked thoughtful.

"This is a new ability that "Colorful" has generated based on my unique characteristics... the rainstorm field, which is enough to serve as a new trump card for me!"

He took a deep breath, looked up at the thundering night sky, and said to himself:
'Remove.'

Suddenly, the thunder really stopped.

And as time went by, the thick clouds dispersed, allowing the moonlight to once again shine on the apartment complex on Morales Street.

The residents around were quite surprised. Even the two maids who were busy collecting clothes in the yard looked up at the sky with their mouths wide open.

"This rain...is not going to stop?"

"What weird weather!"

"Isa, are you still going to accept these clothes?"

"Of course! Aren't you afraid that you'll fall asleep and the rain will start again..."

The two maids, bickering, put the clothes into a woven basket and returned to the apartment.

And Gillan retracted his attention and chuckled.

"Anyway, this promotion has brought many surprises... and my strength has finally reached a point where I can protect myself."

He took off his shirt, leaving his chest bare, revealing his toned and perfect muscles. He stood in the middle of the room wearing only a pair of loose pajamas.

Gilan waved his hand and summoned the panel.

Then he directly consumed the mysterious points and added them to the body-building technique "Life Star Track".

The original remaining energy of "2906" dropped to "1906", consuming a full 1000 points.

In the data column on the panel, the progress of "Life Star Track" has made progress accordingly.

From the "punishment" of the second stage in the early stage, it directly jumped to the "conjunction" of the first stage in the middle stage.

A huge amount of insights suddenly appeared in Jilan's mind, and his body also had some reactions.

He felt that his heartbeat, blood flow, breathing, digestion, sweating and other physiological reactions were all unified under an invisible force.

It was as if an invisible giant hand combed his body, making the entire physical system perfectly coordinated.

And Gillan received enough feedback as a result.

He closed his eyes and stood straight.

After staying in silence for more than ten minutes, he opened his eyes again and let out a long breath.

"Getting stronger again!"

He looked at the panel, and the three-dimensional data on it had been enhanced.

"Strength: 26."

"Agility: 22."

"Stamina: 22."

Strength and agility are increased by 1 point each, while endurance is increased by 2 points.

'It's equivalent to using 1000 energy points to get 4 attribute points, and each point consumes 250 energy points on average... It's definitely more cost-effective than adding points directly.'

Gillan nodded with satisfaction, thinking to himself.

'As my physique gets stronger, it will become more difficult to improve naturally, and the bodybuilding technique taught by Teacher Pala will become more valuable... In addition, after advancing to the "Convergence", my functional structure is seamless and perfectly coordinated. I can basically avoid minor illnesses and pains, and I can use my secret skills more thoroughly. It's a hundred benefits without any harm.'

'Of course, sooner or later, I will be able to practice "Life Star Track" to perfection, and then the attribute points will come into play... It is so difficult and precious to go one step further, but I have the ability. As long as I have enough energy, there may be no bottleneck or limit at all! '

Jilan clenched his fists, his heart pounding.

He looked at the remaining mysterious points and did not leave them idle. Instead, he added them to the meditation method "Dream of Ten Thousand Flowers".

Although I have just been promoted, I cannot stop practicing. If I want to enter the sixth level, the limit of the world, as soon as possible, spiritual perfection is essential.

Then the importance of meditation is self-evident.

This upgrade was the one that consumed the most energy for Jilan, directly wiping out 1800 points of mysterious energy!
Of the points that had been painstakingly accumulated, only "106" points were left.

Although Gillan was heartbroken, he was also satisfied.

Because the meditation method "Dream of Ten Thousand Flowers" directly enters the final and perfect stage "Cycle" from the third stage "Fireworks"!
At this stage, the efficiency of his meditation has reached six times that of the "Twelve Thorns" in the "Iron Thorn Meditation Method"!
Even Para Celsus himself probably had not yet reached that stage of practice!

Just one day of meditation practice is equivalent to two months of hard work for ordinary people.

"With the help of the improved secret medicine 'Lava Balm', my cultivation speed will be taken to a higher level... What will the future hold?"

Gillan smiled a brilliant smile.

Eyes are bright.

"I am looking forward."

...

...

The next day.

Gilan drove to Triumph Building early in the morning, ready to hand over the "perfume bottle" containing the souls of frontline soldiers that he had obtained from the Land of God to his teacher Pala.

However, he learned from a committee staff member that Chairman Pala was away on a business trip and was not in the building at the moment.

Jilan immediately understood that the teacher had already set off to the front line to investigate.

He sighed to himself and had to wait for the teacher to come back before reporting the matter.

When he took the elevator downstairs and just got back into the car, the "Alchemy Hotline" in his arms suddenly vibrated.

Jilan raised his eyebrows and took it out.

Glancing at the golden pattern on the inside of the receiver, he confirmed who was calling. Immediately, he put the phone to his ear and answered:
"Hello, Ms. Crow?"

"Mr. Xuexiao, the leader, Ms. Meiweng, has called all the members of the secret sect to discuss important matters..."
