As the injuries began to quickly heal, Varian leaned back in the chair and felt the time had come.
'Status'.
[Body. Enhanced Path L5: 580/2000 (+80)
Space Path L4: 70/1000 (+5)
Lightning Path L4: 465/1000 (+0)
Morpher Path L3: 400/400 (+20)
Mind Path L3: 400/400 (+100)]
The young woman must have never realized that her furious mental attacks were the best gift.
Unexpectedly, the heavy injuries even triggered the Morpher path.
[Preparing to advance.]
With a prompt, Varian sat cross legged.
First, the prana in his heart seemed to have broken a threshold.
His vitality, resilience skyrocketed. It was like he could even regenerate his limbs.
Of course, he had no idea of trying.
His strength, defense, reaction speed and other qualities also received a boost. But he could tell that it wasn't the most important change.
Varian waved his hand and the next moment, they slowly turned into a dark brown branch.
Varian felt a different kind of strength coming from this branch.
"Seriously, I feel weird." He muttered while manipulated his branch-turned-hand.
He stood up and tried to transform.
Zi!
With a flood of prana, Varian felt his height change.
His torso turned into a trunk while his arms turned into branches. His hair turned to leaves and the next moment, a treant—a tree man was standing.
"Huh? What?!" The first change Varian felt was his injuries.
Even with the rare healing potions, his serious injuries would take at least ten minutes to heal.
Despite that, it was a speed visible to naked eye.
Now, that speed at least doubled.
Varian felt a warm current circulating throughout his body, quickly healing his wounds.
He would be healed in four minutes at most!
"High healing!"
He declared and looked at his branch-like arms. At high speed, he slashed his arms, the branches against each other and—
Clang!
A metallic sound reverberated in the room.
"High defense!"
He punched into thin air. His branch arm extended into the distance and hit the wall.
Boom!
The expensive wall of the rest room shook a little, but that's all.
"Weak Strength."
Varian was disappointed. This attack was weaker than a normal level 4 Enhanced.
But then again, it was fine.
He tried the dreaded stat of Plantae Morphers.
Speed.
"One. Two. One. Two." Varian felt like he was on a parade. His tree legs were thick and bulky.
Despite his best efforts, his level 4 Morpher speed was closer to a level 3 body awakener than he liked to admit.
"Damnit!" Varian cursed. "I heard some plants have high movement speed. Guess I'm not so lucky."
"Argh, whatever. High vitality, high defense, weak strength and turtle speed." He concluded and transformed back.
"Thankfully, my camouflage were specially designed. Or they'd break in fights and during transformation." Sighing, Varian tiredly leaned back against the chair.
He checked out the weird power in his head.
It was like warm water massaging him, soothing him and calming him.Yet it was also like cold water that would focus and cut even the sharpest of metals.
"Mental Power." Varian muttered.
As expected, he became a Telepath.
Mind Awakener (Level 1-3) —> Telepath (Level 4-6)
Varian closed his eyes and tried to sense the world outside.
His mental power spread out and an extremely detailed view of the room presented itself inside his mind's eye.
Sleek White walls. Bots controlled by Boo to not reveal any of his actions. Vials of healing medicine in trash. A few chairs and a resting bed.
"Wow!" Varian opened his eyes and exclaimed.
This was the best 'sense'.
The other two senses—lighting sense and space sense also showed the world, but through their sense of lighting and space.
Only mind sense…he could see the world in the familiar vision.
"Mind Sense is better than I expected. Unfortunately, it won't help much in battles. Space Sense is better." Varian shook his head and recalled the details about Telepaths.
Telepathy. Hypnosis. Illusions. Mind Reading.
Of course, the stronger an awakener, the greater the resistance towards Hypnosis. Same with Illusions.
Mind Reading usually meant prying on thoughts and memories. But without consent, it was hard to do and required a huge differential.
"Mind Reading…" Varian's brows knit together and he closed his eyes.
He quickly dived into his memories. They were like a huge library with new entries every single moment.
There seemed to be a foggy area he couldn't access. But with each passing second, the fog reduced a bit.
In immediate vicinity to the fog were memories of Sia.
That meant these memories were unlocked after the fog wore off.
"Those fuckers! Who sealed my memories?!" Varian's eyes glowed red and he smashed the wall.
Slowly, a white and black light started to emit but it quickly died down as he calmed himself.
"I met Sia already. It's okay. I will kill who needs to be killed. Now, I just need to maintain my cool." Varian patted his shoulder and calmed himself down.
Truth be told, he was incredibly anxious.
He observed that the fog was concentrated heavily in the center. It should be the most important of memories.
Varian closed his eyes once again and used his mental power to touch the fog.
Zi!!
Like ice melting under fire, his mental power melted instantly.
Varian's eyes expression turned pale as he gritted his teeth. Even though nothing happened to his body, just for that moment, he felt like he was burnt alive.
"No. I'll have to see what I can do." Taking a deep breath, Varian dived in once again.
The dark space greeted him and in it laid the grand library of memory. Each memory was a ball of light.
The moment his mental power touched the ball, the memory would play.
But in a corner was the dangerous fog. No. It was not fog.
It was mental power!
Just that Varian's mental power was too thin and was invisible whilst it was very concentrated and almost looked like semi-liquid.
It's definitely compressed mental power.
From level 7 to level 9, Mind Awakeners compressed their mental power to grow stronger.
"Is it level 8 or level 9?" Varian's eyes stared at the deadly fog.
Regardless, he tried to break through the fog and reached the memories.
"Argh!"
"Grah!"
"Fuck! Damnit!"
All attempts ended in failure.
Finally, Varian looked at the edges of the fog. It was the thinnest part.
"Go!"
His mental power, like a spear pierced towards thinnest part of the fog.
"Argh" Varian opened his eyes and felt cold sweat rolling down his forehead.
His breathing was labored and he felt like his brain was crushed in a grinder.
"…Did I fail again?" Varian said slowly, his expression, contorted with pain was full of disappointment.
He checked his memories and found no change.
"I'm pissed off. I'll have to fight." He slowly stood up and walked towards the exit.
Right before he stepped outside, he paused and checked his memories once again.
This time, he carefully observed the thin edge of the fog he previously attacked.
It was not gone…but it definitely thinned!
Three, no, two more attempts and it'd be gone!
"My mind is too painful to try again…but if I do this everyday." Varian's lips curled up.
"I'll regain my memories, I'll find everything!"
