World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

"King, we'll go with you."

Orey stepped forward, with Lather following closely behind.

"No need." Du Ge looked at them and smiled faintly. "This trip to find Grand Duke Lynch might involve combat. Your strength is insufficient, and if something goes wrong, I would feel guilty for the rest of my life. You are still young, with room to grow and a brighter future ahead. You shouldn't die here."

"King..." Lather wanted to say something more.

"This is an order." Du Ge interrupted him, ignoring their silent, grateful, and even guilty looks. He walked out of the prison with Old Gao, enjoying the attribute boost brought by his righteousness.

This is the charm of a noble person!

Helpful, responsible, unafraid of power, steadfast in belief, upright, self-sacrificing...

All these wonderful qualities can be linked to righteousness.

Sure enough, positive energy keywords suit him better. He could now put away those pretenses of evil, chaos, and scheming, and be himself openly.

...

After walking out of the prison.

Old Gao looked up at the azure sky, standing still for a long time before he started moving again.

Du Ge stood quietly beside him. Only when Old Gao moved did he follow at a leisurely pace.

It was just dawn, the streets were empty, and hardly anyone could be seen. Last night's battle seemed intense, but the prison's remote location didn't disturb the nearby residents.

After walking a dozen meters, Old Gao suddenly said, "Holly, you are a noble person."

"Why do you say that?" Du Ge asked with a smile.

"No one in power would wait for an old man like me to stand dazed on the street." Old Gao replied.

"Gao, you and I are different. I was only imprisoned for a day. You don't know how long you've been locked up. Experiencing freedom again, you need to release and relax." Du Ge said, "Besides, we still need to find the Grand Duke Lynch who wronged you. You need some time to calm down." ṝ

"Thinking of others even in the details, that's why I say you are a noble person." Old Gao looked at Du Ge and sighed helplessly. "Standing with you always makes me feel guilty. Holly, actually last night, I didn't give my all to help Leen and the others lift their seals. I kept some magic power for self-preservation..."

"Gao, you bear hatred and were imprisoned. Naturally, your first thought is to survive. In that situation, you spent magic power to help Lather and Orey lift their seals, which is already better than most people." Du Ge comforted with a smile. "Even I had to consider myself. I found an excuse to survive too!"

Du Ge's words only made Old Gao feel more ashamed.

"Let's not talk about this." Du Ge shook his head. "Gao, how can you restore your magic power?"

"With powerful magic, you can lift the mental cage on me." Old Gao said, "The same spell is used to seal the martial soul and magic power, which is the mental cage. It cuts off mental power from the outside world. I persisted in mobilizing my internal magic in prison, barely releasing enough to cast three or four spells..."

"Mental cage? How to use... how to lift it?" Du Ge's eyes sparkled.

Are you more interested in how to set up a mental cage?

Old Gao was speechless.

For a moment, he even doubted his judgment of Du Ge's nobility.

But thinking of Du Ge's vast magic power, he still explained how to set up a mental cage: "Insert any element into the forehead, top of the head, temples, and heart to imprison a person's mental power, making it discontinuous. To lift the mental cage, just remove the elements from these points, allowing mental power to flow and restore magic operation.

The caster can easily lift the mental cage themselves; if an outsider forcibly breaks it, their mental power must be higher than the caster's and require precise control of elements.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

A single mage's mental power is not high, and setting up a simple mental cage with one element is relatively easy to lift. Orey and the others' mental cages are of this kind.

But a Grand Magus can precisely control seven elements, often mixing multiple elements in their mental cages, which ordinary mages can't break. The mental cage on me was set by Grand Duke Lynch himself..."

Damn!

Life and death talisman?

The points Old Gao mentioned are all acupoints!

If the mental cage is related to acupoints, he knows all 720 acupoints in the body and can control seven magical elements.

If he sets up a mental cage in all 720 acupoints, who in the world could break it?

"Let me try." Du Ge stopped, looked at Old Gao, and reached out to touch his forehead, quietly feeling.

Old Gao was stunned.

He looked at Du Ge, opened his mouth.

He wanted to say that insufficient mental power might cause magic backlash when trying to lift the mental cage.

But seeing Du Ge's eager look and thinking of his repeated miracles, Old Gao swallowed his worries.

Holly trusted him so much; why not trust Holly once? At most, he'd suffer magic backlash and lose some mental power, which he could regain with diligence...

He couldn't let Holly down again.

...

A lump of earth element clung to Old Gao's forehead like an octopus.

Du Ge tried to control the earth element with his mental power, but the element, easily controlled in the air, now resisted his control.

Du Ge, undeterred, increased his mental power output.

Then.

With a pop, the lump of earth element was pulled out from Old Gao's forehead and dissipated into the air.

"Is that it?"

Du Ge shook his head and explored Old Gao's temples with his mental power.

There were two elements sealed there, one of air and one of water. With the previous experience, these two elements were also easily removed by Du Ge.

Next was the air element on the top of the head. This element had fewer legs, probably removed by Old Gao himself, making it even easier to lift.

The hardest to remove was the element sealed in Old Gao's heart, where earth and water elements intertwined.

But this was no challenge for Du Ge. He possessed the Power of Poseidon, the master of water elements. With a thought, the water elements obediently separated.

With the water elements removed, the remaining earth elements were fragmented and easy to lift.

In just two or three minutes, Du Ge easily lifted the seal Grand Duke Lynch had placed on Old Gao.

Old Gao's face visibly became rosy, and he looked ten years younger.

He tried to gather a flame in his palm, looked at Du Ge, and after a long silence, asked again, "Are you really Holly?"

Du Ge shook his head and smiled, not answering.

After lifting Grand Duke Lynch's seal, Du Ge felt completely at ease.

In this Alien Star Battlefield, his mental power gave him a significant advantage. With over two million mental power, these natives couldn't catch up even in a hundred years of cultivation.

"Could you really be the Sea God incarnate?" Old Gao used honorifics. At this moment, his worries had vanished, and he was utterly devoted to Du Ge.

"Gao, how do you usually use magic in combat?" Du Ge awkwardly changed the subject.

"By using gestures and incantations to communicate with magical elements, forming spells like earth spikes, ice, and fireballs to attack our enemies. Different levels of magic consume different amounts of magic power." Old Gao said, "Grand Duke Lynch has a complete set of magic incantations and casting systems that can help you quickly become a Grand Magus..."
