The white ranger elf, who stood half a head taller than Motan, turned to him puzzled: "Magic power?"
"Uh... Yes, magic power." Motan nodded awkwardly with a sheepish smile. To be honest, his psychological quality at this moment was more or less average, and his ability to lie was only slightly better than when he was in the state of [Lawful Good]. Though he knew that his last-minute plan should theoretically be flawless, he was still somewhat unsure deep down.
But compared to his other personalities, being ordinary and moderate did not mean that his abilities were as well. It was worthwhile to note that the knowledge and number of crisis situations that Motan had experienced were countless, so handling this small scene should still be manageable.
Sure enough, Yenna did not doubt him at all, she casually replied: "Yes, all of us elves have more or less magical power within us. Even if we don't do anything, it will accumulate as we age. However, I primarily train as a ranger and have never done any magic refining or meditation, so I can't compare to you."
"And…" She glanced at Motan dangerously: "I'm still young, in human terms I would be about seventeen, so you'd better watch your words~~"
Motan gave a dry laugh and nodded hastily in agreement. Then, he mentally calculated the time and tentatively asked: "So, can you charge the Magic Crystal Lamp?"
"Why?" Yenna immediately looked at him doubtfully:"Want to shirk work?"
As they spoke, they had traveled some distance from Stacked Rock City. However, because this was the main road leading to Granite City in the north, there were still many people passing by. Every two hundred meters or so along the road, there was a Magic Crystal Lamp placed on a short pillar. They did not operate during the day, but provided light and warmth for travelers after nightfall, and also served to drive away low-level wild beasts.
It can be said that it is the ubiquitous lighting equipment in the Innocent Continent.
At this moment, the two were right next to the first Magic Crystal Lamp.
"I'm not being lazy~" Motan gently touched the crystal sheet that was closely attached to the stone base and showed Yenna an embarrassed expression. Then, without activating any skills, he tried to sense the magic power in his own body and immediately broke out in a sweat.
As mentioned before, the game [Realm of Innocence] is quite unfriendly to players. It won't automatically give you a dialog box that asks 'whether to inject magic power' with YES and NO options when you stand near the task target, then complete the task progress when you choose. So don't even think about it!
If a task or other situation requires you to inject magic power? OK, you have to figure out how to inject it, don't dream about something like 'one-click completion'.
As for something even more absurd like automatic pathfinding or hang-up monster-fighting...even browser games won't degrade themselves like that anymore...
This world is just too real.
But in fact, this isn't the most ridiculous part. Players in the beginner stage don't know it yet, but not just the regular operations, even some higher-level skills require a certain level of skill to initiate. Right now, everyone just has to think to activate the low threshold, low consumption, idiot-proof skills and does not need any player skills. But as the occupational level gets higher, this situation will completely change...
By the way, Motan has long been able to skillfully use various high-level skills, especially those related to black magic...but he himself just doesn't have the relevant memories.
"What are you doing?" Yenna asked curiously. "Are you treating this thing like your dream lover? You're touching it so attentively..."
Motan shrugged helplessly, saying: "I've never done this before. Honestly, it's way harder than praying and singing hymns..."
Then he closed his eyes, tried hard to concentrate his mind, and sensed the 'magic power' that did not exist in reality. This was undoubtedly a bit difficult, as if we could never imagine what it felt like to have an extra tail or a pair of wings. But it must be said, human adaptability is very~very~very astonishing...
Soon, Motan, who was so anxious that his face was red and his neck was thick, felt two indescribable existences in his body, focusing on his limbs and brain, respectively. If he concentrated on the former, he would find that the power was faintly resonating with the surroundings, being changeable and extremely unstable; while the latter gave him a sense of peace and warmth.
[First Triggering of Magical Power achieved, Intelligence +1, Faith Value Limit +5]
The soft system prompt sounded in Motan's ear, and right after, the scale on the Basic Magic Power Crystal in his hand began to light up.
When Motan's magic power was depleted at a rate of 5 points per second, after using up 20 points, the energy in the crystal was already completely saturated.
"You did great~" Yenna patted his shoulder and laughed: "You're outstanding for someone who can only pray and sing hymns. However, you don't have to fill it up, seven percent of magic power and full magic power actually don't make much difference in duration, the latter is just brighter."
