Chapter 993: Chapter 720: Summoning Type in Theory
The combat personnel of the operation type with a fire gun, which already exists in reality, even though optimized within the Eye World, wouldn’t turn a fire gun into a star destroying cannon.
A fire gun remains a fire gun; it just exhibits power fluctuations based on the individual’s mental strength...
Simply put, it’s like those fixed damage roles in games, the mental power to manifest weapons of operation type is akin to skills with fixed damage values, capable of delivering fixed damage even with an utterly blank slate.
Of course, this fixed damage is subject to enhancement by the individual’s strength or intelligence attribute, it won’t fall behind just because the user himself is overly powerful.
Such weapons are more suitable for those whose individual powers are not strong, because even the weakest can still deal significant damage through these weapons.
It’s equivalent to a magical version of firearms; ordinary people can use guns or cannons to exert destructive power beyond their own, but the destructive power of these hot weapons remains fixed.
Weapons of operation type within the Eye World can deliver power that breaks this fixed damage, provided the user is strong enough, but this bonus is still limited by the weapon’s inherent fixed damage.
If the baseline is high, the power displayed after enhancement is high; if the base is low, a bullet won’t turn into an intercontinental missile just because of the user’s strong mental power.
To launch such an attack, you’d at least need to produce a proper missile, and even if it’s not an intercontinental one, under the influence of a strong person’s extremely high mental power, it could reach the power of an intercontinental missile.
But if the opponent is also of operation type and can directly use intercontinental missiles, then the power of the two remains equal.
Thus, while the operation type has a reasonable lower limit, its upper limit is quite fixed, making it difficult to break through.
The transformation type is akin to a mixed damage profession, possessing fixed damage while also having percentage damage enhancements.
The energy type is like a purely percentage-based profession, but its lower limit isn’t the lowest, as this isn’t a game that needs to maintain balance between versions.
Attacks like flame, cold ice, Wind Blade inherently carry lethality; as long as one can lead a normal life within the Eye World, it means they inherently possess a certain degree of ’attack power,’ eliminating the dilemma of an attack power of zero which cannot be enhanced by percentages.
Thus, the lower limit of the energy type is not low, unless the person has a mental disability which could redefine the lower limit of the energy type, otherwise, the transformation type remains at the bottom in terms of the lower limit.
The transformation type requires the cooperation of the body, which means that transformations do not correct physical disabilities in the Eye World, since it relates to one’s own spirit.
There are few mentally disabled individuals, but many physically disabled, transformation type requires the individual to engage in combat, meaning they also need to train in combat skills; as for the energy type, once you get started, even without any combat skills, how could you still not manage?
There are many warriors using operation type weapons present, not because they all chose the warrior path, but because they have also mastered the operation type, which as the profession with the lowest threshold, does not require much energy to learn.
Being proficient with a gun does not necessarily mean one can manufacture firearms; as long as someone can provide the firearms, what’s required of the operation type is to become familiar with these firearms, even to the extent of being able to dismantle and assemble them swiftly with closed eyes.
This qualifies as a professional of the operation type, but this type of part-time operation type professionals needing to select skills requires the assistance of true operation type professionals, the advantage being that it doesn’t waste much of their own energy.
Weapons manifested through mental power can also perform with greater power through personal enhancement; the disadvantage is that they cannot actively select skills, nor can they optimize and adjust the configurations of operation type weapons, their approach to enhancing attacks is just crudely forceful.
True professionals of the operation type however can continuously optimize and improve weapons, reaching a level with the used weapons that aren’t weaker than those operated by stronger, part-time operation type professionals, they may even win.
Then, being infuriated, the part-time operation type professionals unleash their main job’s power and blast through... Part-time is just for convenience, without consuming much energy, did they really think they were giving up their main job?
Reality isn’t like a game where you can have only one profession; with sufficient energy, one might juggle three professions, and not just as a shortcut like a makeshift operation type or transformation type profession.
So amongst the security present, though 80% appear to belong to the operation type, in this 80%, less than 30% are truly professionals of the operation type, the rest are energy type and transformation type.
Zheng Yichen didn’t use weaponry or equipment related to the operation type, but instead used a more special attack, which only the energy type possesses!
The battle continues.
Alarms within the Central Tower ring again, this time not due to new intruders, but because the Central Tower’s firewall has been breached.
As Zheng Yichen has already taken action, Lilith didn’t need to sneak around anymore and started attacking the Central Tower’s firewall through direct, violent invasion.
As long as they could control the Central Tower’s main program, what follows could directly affect the Central Tower’s main program.
However, this invasion by Lilith was soon halted as the enemy deployed a very unique virus, a type of virus that even as artificial intelligence, she ’came into contact’ with danger.
"BOSS, I’ve encountered a very troublesome virus."
"Virus? Alright..." Zheng Yichen swung the dragon claw in his hand, tearing through the wall beside him, and as the security personnel who were chasing him got close to the hole, they were blasted back by a burst of Black Light.
The dense barrage of light forced them to defend themselves.
Zheng Yichen clicked his tongue, somewhat uncomfortable with the form of combat in the Eye World. In essence, it was the type of energy exertion that was different. He tried to manifest Black Light in the Eye World at first, but failed.
The nature of their exertions differed, but after fighting with those security guards for a while, he gradually figured out the corresponding Combat Skills. His understanding of strength wasn’t weak; he was just unaccustomed to the combat mode within the Eye World.
With so many experts helping him practice, his mastery of the relevant skills picked up quickly.
Time to be bold when necessary, and steady when it’s called for.
Zheng Yichen and the security guards exchanged blows back and forth, and not only were their combat qualities high, but he also wanted to learn more, considering the upcoming fight against the Boundary Breaker. Understanding more about this World’s method of combat wouldn’t be bad.
"Show me the way!"
"Understood." Lilith immediately guided him on the route, even though her previous infiltration attempt had failed, it wasn’t without its gains.
Zheng Yichen quickly made his way through the Central Tower, shattering all the surveillance cameras he passed.
Boom—
An explosion sounded, and a huge claw reached towards Zheng Yichen, blocking his path, with the security guards also catching up from behind. They looked at the behemoth blocking the way with surprised expressions.
One of the security personnel, maintaining a half-lion form, seemed rather astonished:"A theoretical Summoning type?"
The Summoning type is still in theory; it is a variant of the Transformation type. However, the creatures summoned aren’t controlled directly by the summoner, but need to fight on their own.
Transformation type has its benefits, and so does Summoning type. The Summoning type allows those creatures to exert their primitive strength better, while no matter how the Transformation type changes forms, it can’t change its human-centered nature.
This would affect the transformed form, causing some of the strength to be compromised.
The Summoning type could remedy this problem, also freeing the summoner. The issue is, the creatures summoned by the Summoning type lack self-awareness and direct combat capabilities. Controlled by humans?
It’s still human-centric, and the Summoned Beasts would still be restricted by human forms, not just physically, but also mentally.
As for the assistance of an intelligent chip... that’s not impossible, but in intense combat, it would be stiff, not effective enough and easily disrupted.
Thus, the Summoning type as this new professional field is currently still in theory. He could identify this because he is from the Transformation type himself and is quite focused on this area of research.
So far, a more reliable solution for problems of the Summoning type involves splitting mental power... well, specifically through certain methods to nurture a Beast Persona.
This Beast Persona is normally sealed, and when needed, it is directly integrated into the Summoned Beast. The Beast Persona is cultivated based on the type of the Summoned Beast, and once successfully cultivated, it won’t be constrained by human mental forms anymore.
However, this solution also carries great risks and has not been approved so far.
Not approved, but that doesn’t mean there haven’t been corresponding experiments. The behemoth that has appeared now seems to be... a product of the Summoning type?
The form of the behemoth was unfamiliar to him; it likely was a ’Mythical type’ creature constructed by some people.
"This creature..." Zheng Yichen stared at the behemoth blocking the path, pondering for a moment. He had a faint recollection - it seemed like the one that suddenly appeared and intercepted him when he was about to reach Dusk in the Great World.
Although that behemoth was swiftly dealt with by him, since it was a recent encounter, he was still able to remember it. The one blocking his path now seemed very similar, probably an imitation.
In addition, this thing was also a product of the Eye World. If the ’Eye’ were turned off, then this thing would no longer be visible.
Facing such a creature, Zheng Yichen took out his fishing rod. The environmental level of this world wasn’t high, where fierce creatures he encountered in the Great World could be directly killed by him, so it was better to be cautious here.
As Zheng Yichen raised his hand to attack, the cat spirit burst out from his cloak and ferociously pounced on the behemoth blocking the path. The two massive creatures clashed together. Zheng Yichen quickly passed the obstructing behemoth, and saw a pile of...
