Susk was a Mind Flayer. To be exact, he was a newborn that had just turned from a tadpole into an adult Mind Flayer. Compared to the lifespan of the Mind Flayers, which was 130 years old, their psionic powers were limited. Otherwise, they would not have been repelled by the strong resistance when they used Mind Control.
The truly powerful elders of the Mind Flayers could even turn an adult dragon into a slave without any resistance, let alone a mere mental resistance.
Unfortunately, there were no more elders in Eddisin. Not to mention elders, there were less than 15 adult Mind Flayers left. The rest of them were either in hibernation to save on food or had offered their brains to fuse with the Great Will.
There was no other way …
Due to being isolated from the material world, Eddis could not obtain enough slaves from the outside world. Without enough slaves, the Mind Flayers would not have enough food, and there would not be enough qualified hosts to hatch the tadpoles.
It could be said that the city of the Mind Flayers, which was feared by countless people, had now become a graveyard that could barely maintain the minimum consumption. As the number of slaves decreased day by day, in less than 200 years, Eddis would truly become a dead city.
In order to get rid of this situation, the Great Will, which was the center of the city, was a strange lifeform that the outside world called the Mastermind. It did not hesitate to waste its remaining psionic powers to connect the soul of one of the Mind Flayers to the Dimensional Bag so that it could find a way to return to the material world.
Obviously, Susk was the newest person to take over this position. His predecessor had exhausted his lifespan and became a part of the Mastermind, responsible for providing all kinds of knowledge and experience.
With this experience and knowledge, he quickly became a fish in water in the human society. Not only did he successfully find Willie Galt, who had the Blood of Anti-Magic, he even used Telepathy to insert certain thoughts into Willie Galt's brain. As long as the time was right, it would not be long before the merchants began to cultivate their forces. They would try to pass through the underground tunnel and find the magic barrier surrounding Eddisin.
However, the problem was that all of this intricate plan had been destroyed by this damned human in front of him today!
The most frightening thing was that the human had grasped the fatal weakness of Eddis — the Dimensional Bag!
Just a few seconds ago, the Cortex Prime had personally issued an order for Susk to protect the only medium of communication with the outside world no matter what. There must not be any damage.
Staring at André's right eye that did not hide its malice, it sighed helplessly in its heart. Then, it asked through the spiritual link, "Tell me, what do you want?
Let me tell you in advance, we can't send you any material objects. If you want real rare metals, gems, and magic materials, you have to come to the underground world, to Eddisin City, and break the energy barrier surrounding the city. "
"Don't worry, I'm a mage, I understand your current situation.
If I'm not wrong, you should have been squeezed into the gap connected to the material world by some kind of spatial magic or energy, and this multi-dimensional bag just happened to record the coordinates of the gap at the moment of the accident, so you can get in touch with the outside world through it.
According to this inference, the space in the multi-dimensional bag should be connected to Eddisin. It could even be used as a medium to transport some inanimate objects.
How about it, do you want to give it a try? "
As André spoke, he used a level-0 arcane spell, Magic Trick, to clean the blood on his face, and then sat down on the chair.
To be honest, the spiritual attack just now had caused quite a lot of damage to him. According to the data that appeared in his vision, he had lost more than 20 HP, and he was still a little dizzy. He really needed to sit down and rest for a while.
"No!
That's impossible!
We've already tried, there's no way to transport anything to the half-plane bound to the multi-dimensional bag. You're completely indulging in fantasy! "Susk roared in an ear-piercing voice.
Its voice sounded so agitated, and its two pupil-less eyes were full of vigilance. A layer of invisible energy quickly gathered, afraid that the dirty bag would be damaged even a little bit.
Feeling the psionic power in the air, André was not nervous at all. Instead, he laughed and spread out his hands, "Haha!
Relax, just because you can't do it doesn't mean that I can't.
Do you know?
Compared to your psionic power, the biggest advantage of magic is understanding and creation.
Although the technology of making multi-dimensional bags has been lost, the teleportation technology has been completely preserved.
In the book "Planes and Teleportation", it was explained that when a half-plane formed a hidden connection with another half-plane, what the wizards had to do was to find the point of contact between the two planes, and then make a small hole.
Perhaps with my casting level, I'm temporarily unable to do this, but as long as I borrow the power of the wizard tower, I can easily solve all the problems. If you don't believe me, I can show you now … "
As soon as his voice fell!
He suddenly activated the defensive system of the wizard tower without warning. After a short second, silver arcs of light enveloped him in an instant, forming a translucent field of energy, firmly isolating the strange psionic power outside.
The helpless Susk could only watch as the powerful energy crazily poured in from the entrance of the multi-dimensional bag, wantonly destroying the half-plane bound on the other side. The only thing it could do was curse … roar …
With its pitiful psionic power, it was not enough to break through the protection of the wizard tower, let alone resist the crazy influx of energy.
Just as the Mind Flayer thought that the multi-dimensional bag was about to be destroyed, the surrounding air suddenly began to tremble violently, and at the same time, a loud sound was heard. Terrifying cracks appeared out of nowhere, as if the entire space was about to collapse.
Seeing this scene, André immediately stopped the energy transfer, and directly put a hand into the multi-dimensional bag to explore the changes within. Soon, he laughed happily.
"Hahahahaha!
It's connected!
It's just as I expected!
The so-called half-plane is like a bubble in a block of ice. Although there's no way to fuse them together, opening a small hole in the adjacent bubble is no problem. "
At this point, he suddenly turned his head and asked the Mind Flayer, who was stunned in place, "Do you want to try?
I've already opened the connection between you and the multi-dimensional bag, and now we can finally carry out some real transactions.
For example, I'll provide you with the brains of some intelligent creatures, and you provide me with some rare metals, gems, and magical materials … "
