Chapter 14 6 Dimensions
Lu Shi was taken aback.
He originally thought that since he had obtained preliminary information by restarting the process, Captain Fu would at least ask questions or test him.
But what I didn't expect was that she said, "It's good that you're alright."
Lu Shi forced a smile, concealing his emotions and the excuse he had prepared beforehand: "It's nothing."
"That's good!" Captain Fu smiled and nodded, not asking any further questions. Instead, he observed the structural stability of the space supported by the steel coils and pillars after the collapse, as well as the potential risks.
Lu Shi then began to examine his own gains.
Time Coin Earnings -3.
That's right, what happened before was an operation that Lu Shi had performed after dying several times and using multiple Shi coins to start over.
If he hadn't suddenly pulled the safety net to change the position of the bamboo raft, they would have had a hard time escaping the falling rocks from the collapsing building.
Despite Captain Fu's arrangements, using his abilities to help Lu Shi evade danger and break rocks to create a safe zone, the situation remained unchanged.
At that time, Lu Shi witnessed Captain Fu's terrifying strength; he was practically a ferocious fire beast.
But Captain Fu couldn't hold on for long. Lu Shi could see clearly that when the building was pressing down on him, Captain Fu made a very obvious movement, turning his whole body into a "little red man".
Through his intuition, Lu Shi was able to sense that Captain Fu was overdrawing his own resources.
This is unnecessary. Even if Captain Fu doesn't sacrifice his life, it will still delay the work for a long time, which will not be conducive to his future meritorious service.
So Lu Shi took the initiative to step out of the protective circle and face the danger head-on.
He was then crushed into a paper-thin figure by the suddenly emerging two-dimensional foil-steel coil.
Returning to the beginning of the day, Lu Shi integrated more than nine thousand versions of himself, with more than nine thousand thoughts operating simultaneously, and then grasped the key point—Captain Fu resolved the related rituals mentioned in the bloody calamity that had befallen him.
That's why Lu Shi chose to add that sentence before starting, and began to use "Captain Fu" as a sacrifice to carry out the related ritual.
However, there are still some things to keep in mind during the ceremony. Lu Shi's ceremony was fine, but it was too rushed, and there were many oversights since it was his first time.
Afterwards, the steel coil received a corrective force boost, making its power beyond imagination.
So after dying twice more, Lu Shi finally found the current route to clear the game.
Using the safety net to avoid the first wave of rocks, leaving a safe space for Captain Fu to lead him into the underground parking garage, and then seizing the fear of the offering, he, as the host, solidified the cognitive imprint.
This mark is currently in a very peculiar state, and like the essence of metaphysics, it remains in a state of "as if it exists".
A scarlet rune, carrying a bloody aura, was positioned about a fist's width away from Lu Shi's brow.
You can see it simply by focusing your mind and clearing your vision.
The rune was extremely faint, and Lu Shi was able to activate it using his spiritual senses.
But this mystical ability is not very useful for them now that they are trapped underground.
Metaphysical abilities are not omnipotent; many of the six dimensions of metaphysics, or even only one dimension, have a corresponding level.
In modern society, deadly things are everywhere, and metaphysics cannot solve them.
However, the metaphysics society had already located the place and quickly brought out various tools to plan a rescue operation.
In this regard, the Metaphysics Society has a wealth of experience.
They even had an attached "construction team".
During this time, Captain Fu was explaining metaphysical abilities to Lu Shi.
"Currently, the development of metaphysical abilities can be roughly divided into two directions: outward and inward."
Captain Fu raised his hand, and a splash of red appeared.
Because Captain Fu did not move quickly at that moment, Lu Shi could see it clearly.
On Captain Fu's hand, there were red veins, and it was these veins that made Captain Fu's palm appear translucent.
"Six dimensions: depth, alienation, breadth, atmosphere, scheduling, and misalignment."
"Most of them are self-explanatory from their names, indicating what aspect of the ability they represent."
"My abilities in depth, alienation, and coordination have all reached level three, and my misalignment and breadth are at level two. Only the atmosphere is at level one."
"Depth refers to the efficiency of activating metaphysical abilities, their duration, their overall strength, and their power to contend with normal realities."
"This is the foundation that many abilities require."
"As I mentioned before, mutation is the modification of an individual's body. After mutation, my body can actually flow with flames and accelerate the flame jet."
"Next comes the ability to coordinate. Without sufficient coordination ability, the ability will only harm both oneself and others, and if the degree of corruption rises to a certain level, one will also be punished by the First Commandment."
Captain Fu stopped demonstrating his abilities and then said seriously, "Alienation is the key to inward development. Because of this, combined with combat skills and corresponding techniques, I possess fairly strong martial arts abilities."
"As for expanding outwards, that involves breadth and atmosphere."
"Breadth refers to the range in which capabilities can be deployed, which is relatively easier to categorize into levels."
"For example, besides being inside my own body, I can also conjure flames out of thin air in most places within my field of vision, which can also be considered a level two breadth."
"The focus now is on your metaphysical abilities," Captain Fu said, steering the conversation back to Lu Shixin's newly acquired metaphysical abilities.
"The bloodshed was basically a mark of fear formed only by my own fear, especially since I, the 'sacrifice,' am still alive. Therefore, most of my six dimensions are at level zero, with only one or two at level one."
"Based on the previous bloodshed incidents, it should be about breadth and depth, and there might be some adjustments involved."
"But you'll have to test this yourself later."
"However, you can now use your spiritual sense to roughly perceive the specific operations, maintaining a state of restraint, in order to practice your metaphysical abilities."
Metaphysical abilities are just that—abilities. In some ways, they're not much different from swimming or riding a bicycle.
Having mystical abilities is like learning a swimming stroke so you won't immediately sink.
The next step in using metaphysical abilities requires personal practice to become proficient in them.
The reason Lu Shi was able to control the steel coil before, apart from the fact that the steel coil itself contained the same source of the Blood-Red Calamity, was that the steel coil was already at its limit at that time. Therefore, he was able to guide and extract it by relying on its active aura when the mark was first formed.
"Hmm." Lu Shi cleared his mind and sensed the blood-red mark beyond the fist between his eyebrows.
As Lu Shi immersed himself in the experience, he could feel a trace of blood-red energy being drawn out from within.
Then these crimson energies are able to leave the brand and spread outwards.
Lu Shi noticed a rock in the distance. Following Lu Shi's thoughts, the crimson aura quickly clung to the rock and seeped into it.
It was at this moment that Lu Shi realized he could influence the stone to some extent.
However, the force he could exert was very small; even a stone the size of a fist couldn't be moved an inch.
"Is it that weak?" Lu Shi thought to himself, then realized what he was doing and looked at Captain Fu.
Captain Fu was taken aback, and then his spiritual senses detected something wrapped around his body.
It was at this moment that Lu Shi figured out how to use the metaphysical ability - Bloodshed Disaster.
