Josh exited his room the following day to see most of the team were out in the lobby already. Elijah stood in the center of the group next to a muscular man. This was Elijah’s human creation Brutus. Josh headed for the group, happy to get a better look at the new addition to the team. He had a brief glance the previous day before Elijah rushed back into his room, Brutus in tow. He only knew his name because Lance had been assisting Elijah before the creation. Brutus was a tall, extremely muscular man, looking as if he were a professional bodybuilder. Looking to be in his mid thirties he had a rugged look with his military haircut and dark fiveoclock shadow. Josh stepped up to Eve who was noting something down in one of her many notebooks.

“What's going on?” Josh asked, Logan, Matt and Lance had all stepped closer to Elijah and were discussing something among themselves.

“Elijah is showing his latest exchange” the young woman said without taking her eyes off the page

“Something good?” Josh wondered. He didn’t know how many points Elijah got in the last movie but he was sure the bonus mission had given the psyche force user a D rank reward.

“A bracer that works with his psyche force” Eve answered and nodded once. Josh could feel information coming from God.

Soul link bracer

This item allows a psyche force user to link minds with one other person within a 100-meter area.Strong psyche force interference can sever the link. Cost D rank reward and 1250 points

“That’s a brief description” Josh noted

“Most items related to psyche force are like that” Eve revealed “This is a good one though. Logan said it works just like the ability”

“That's great” Josh said “Maybe we don't need the ability at all”

“I wouldn’t go that far” Lance said as the rest of the group turned to Josh and Eve

“It would be great if it stacks with the actual ability” Matt said “bumps up the limit on group convos”

“The psyche force ability has a limit too?” Josh asked

“Yes, six” Logan answered “in a previous team battle a enemy psyche force user claimed his mental capacity allowed him to have seven but I didn't give him a chance to demonstrate”

“This would offer us a comparatively small priced option” Lance agreed with Matt “Even if it doesn't stack this would be great to have if we start to train a second psyche force user”

“Sheesh haven't even started yet and you're trying to replace me” Elijah complained

Lance let out a laugh “Nothing like that. Just hoping for two psyche force users on the team”

“Is that possible?” Matt questioned

“I’ve never seen it but i don't see why not” Logan said with a shrug

“Regardless if God would bring in another with the potential” Lance added “anyone can learn psyche force abilities if their mental capacity is high enough”

“Could there be a team of psyche force users?” Josh wondered

“Highly unlikely” Lance answered “If you're not a natural user the requirement is absurdly high. Someone who isn't a psyche force user wouldn't put that much into that stat”

“People like Crystal would” Josh pointed out “She needs a high mental capacity for her summons”

“True” Lance acknowledged “but even she needs over 2000 points in Mental Capacity to get any psyche force abilities”

“That's insane!” Josh was stunned at the requirement. Logan had gone through more movies than anyone else on the team and he only had a few stats over 1000.

“Obviously this isn't something i’d recommend till we have a stronger team” Lance said

A door opening drew everyone’s attention as Crystal stepped out of her room. The young woman looked momentarily weary when she saw the rest of the team stare at her. After people looked away she walked up and joined the group. With the full team present, the plans for the remaining days were laid out. They mostly consisted of general combat training for everyone, shooting practice, and training new abilities.
