Luo Chao looked toward the set of barbell plates in the corner, and a thought crossed his mind.
A 1.5-kilogram barbell plate slowly floated up, quietly stopping in mid-air.
"Previously, I tested the magnitude and speed of my telekinesis. Now, I'll see how precise it is."
"Up, down, left, right, rotate." Following the commands from Luo Chao's mind, the barbell plate precisely moved according to his instructions.
"It seems my precision is quite good. Could it be that I have an innate talent, grasping it so well?" Luo Chao thought narcissistically.
At the same time, he caught a glimpse of the remaining barbell plates out of the corner of his eye and suddenly thought of something.
"So far, everything I've controlled has been singular objects. How many things can I control simultaneously at most?"
Without hesitation, Luo Chao's brain issued another command, "Rise!"
Another 1.5-kilogram barbell plate slowly lifted into the air, quietly hovering in the air.
At this moment, the room presented a scene: a young man leaning back in his chair, two meters ahead, with two barbell plates simultaneously floating in mid-air.
However, the barbell plate on the left was rapidly spinning in the air, while the one on the right hovered quietly.
"Could this be the legendary multitasking, ambidextrous skill? Haha!" Luo Chao was delighted to see this, "So, how about adding another one?"
Luo Chao's thought moved again, and yet another 2.5-kilogram barbell plate floated up as he wished.
Although he succeeded, Luo Chao discovered that as the third barbell plate ascended, the spinning speed of the previously rotating plate started to slightly decline.
Luo Chao controlled the third barbell plate to draw a circle continuously in the air, causing the rotation speed of the spinning barbell plate to plunge.
Then, Luo Chao tried to lift a fourth barbell plate, which rose slightly more than thirty centimeters before seemingly losing power and falling to the ground. Fortunately, the floor was carpeted, and the sound was not loud, avoiding drawing attention.
"Indeed, it seems fully controlling three barbell plates is my present limit." Luo Chao looked at the slowly rotating first barbell plate, something else came to his mind.
"Its rotational speed slowed because I controlled two more barbell plates, with one staying still and the other drawing circles in the air. This is a state of multitasking. If I exerted all efforts to make them rotate together, would their speed increase?"
Thus, Luo Chao began to rotate the two stationary barbell plates.
As the two barbell plates reached the same speed as the first plate, Luo Chao's brain issued the same command repeatedly, "Faster, even faster!"
All three barbell plates started spinning faster and faster, eventually reaching the speed previously achieved when controlling just one plate to rapidly rotate.
"Looks like my analysis was correct. Unless multitasking, as long as it's within my maximum control number, the precision and strength of controlling objects won't change."
Simply put, if controlling three objects to attack an enemy with the same attack method, the power won't weaken. But if controlling three objects to attack three enemies using three different attack methods, the power will weaken.
"The force is the same, the smaller the area of impact, the greater the pressure. If I controlled not barbell plates but stones, knives, or even bullets, how powerful would it be?" Luo Chao, eager to apply his ability in combat, posed this question.
With this in mind, Luo Chao opened a drawer containing a box of pens, a stapler, and many sheets of A4 paper.
Luo Chao took out three pens, removed the caps, then stacked a pile of A4 paper approximately twenty-five centimeters thick on the ground.
Luo Chao manipulated the three pens, first sending them to the ceiling, then suddenly sent them stabbing down toward the A4 paper on the floor.
With a "thud," all three pens were buried into the paper.
"Impressive power," Luo Chao exclaimed.
One sheet of paper is easy to pierce, but if you take out a stack with sufficient thickness, even stabbing forcefully with a knife won't penetrate, similar to the logic that a single chopstick is easy to break, but a handful is not.
Moreover, although pens have pointed tips, they don't have sufficient mass, and being made of plastic, they're prone to breaking.
Overall, achieving this destructive capability, Luo Chao was already satisfied.
Extracting the damaged papers one by one, then stacking them together, Luo Chao measured that the pens had pierced eighteen centimeters deep, just surpassing the pen's length slightly.
If replaced with a sharp knife or dagger, it would presumably penetrate the entire twenty-five centimeters of paper.
Looking at the broken pens beside him, which couldn't even write anymore, Luo Chao made up his mind.
"I need to quickly find a handy weapon. I can't go attacking with pens in the future."
Luo Chao took out his laptop, swiftly opened a shopping site, and typed in "dagger, knife," immediately captivated by the webpage that popped up.
With a pitch-black blade, streamlined design, and very compact—a knife costs just over nine bucks!
Recently buying riot gear and a helmet took up most of Luo Chao's existing savings.
So when Luo Chao saw this tempting low price, he bought six without hesitation.
The CardSharp is a tool knife lighter and sharper than ordinary small knives, with an extremely sharp blade yet very lightweight, only two millimeters thick and weighing thirteen grams.
The sixty-five-millimeter-long blade is made from surgical stainless steel to ensure it doesn't rust over time, useful for carrying around, equipped with protection against scratches and blade blunting, and is the size of a credit card.
Normal people mainly use this multipurpose tool knife for tasks like paper cutting or peeling apples, but Luo Chao is different. He possesses telekinesis!
With a thought, the sixty-five-millimeter black blade directly targets the vital parts with lightning speed - most wouldn't even see it, let alone defend against it. For him, this is one of the most suitable weapons for his telekinesis.
"Haha, today's luck is great; I found so many suitable gears. For defense, there's riot clothing and bulletproof helmet; for attack, the black knife perfect for telekinesis. Who can stand against me in the future?" Luo Chao was very happy.
"Once I have the black knife, Sword Control Technique is certainly not a dream!" Luo Chao thought to himself with admiration.
