Chapter 10 Uses of Runes
"Is this engraved rune different from the rune used by the mage to cast spells?" Mu Yun said a little excitedly.
The maid still smiled and replied, "The runes used are the same, and it can also be said to be an enlarged version of the mage's spell casting rune. However, one piece of equipment can only be engraved with one rune, otherwise there will be conflicts, and in severe cases, it will damage the equipment itself."
"What about comparison with the mage's spell scroll?"
"The mage's scroll is a one-time item, but it is easy to carry. The runes engraved on the warrior's equipment can only be released once a time. The advantage is that they can continue to inject source power and use it, but the equipment will also wear down. The engraved runes with great power will be completely destroyed even if they are released once. Of course, the power of the runes released is also huge." The maid did not have any strange expression because of Mu Yun's clothes, and continued to explain patiently.
"So what are the differences in the materials they use? Also, can the runes cast by the mage be engraved on human skin? Since the equipment can be engraved for use, I heard that some aliens will use some potions to apply some patterns on their bodies for combat and cultivation. So is our runes of mage okay?" Mu Yun continued to ask, like a curious baby.
"Haha, I'll answer this."
A voice came from the side. Mu Yun turned his head and saw a middle-aged man wearing a white robe walking over. His long brown hair was combed meticulously. There were two aligned mustaches above his lips. He was behind his back with one hand and playing with a small ball with the other. He looked at Mu Yun with a smile, then turned his head to the maid who was standing there who saw the middle-aged man coming and lowering his head slightly, saying, "You go to entertain other guests, just leave it to me."
"Yes, Lord."
Then the middle-aged man smiled at Mu Yun and said, "Hello, I am Moste, the president here."
Mu Yun also smiled, "Hello, President Moste, my name is Mu Yun."
Most looked at Mu Yun with a little curiosity, "It seems you are very interested in these." Before Mu Yun answered, he continued, "The mage portrayed on the scroll is usually made of one or more materials with the same system as the portray. The rarer the system is, the more difficult the materials needed for the portray are to find and match, and the more expensive the price."
"Similarly, the patterns engraved on the equipment are also integrated with rare metal combinations of the same series, because they are used on the equipment. Compared to the ones, they can be used many times more than the scroll, and they can be repaired if damaged. The disadvantage is that they can only be used once in a battle, and as long as you have money, it is OK to use them to kill an enemy." Most said with a smile.
"As for what you said, like those alien races, you have tried it before, it is not convenient, and it is not as easy as equipment. Moreover, our runes are different from alien races. If you clean your body too much, it will be damaged before it comes in handy, or you will be easily damaged in battle. Once you release the spell incompletely, it will be difficult to succeed, and it will be a loss."
After pausing, Most continued, "There is another reason that our human body is relatively fragile compared to the alien race, because it is not done outside the body like releasing runes. What is drawn on the body is to withstand runes activation. If it is a mild rune, such as shield or treatment, the requirements for the body's ability to withstand the body are not high. However, if it is an aggressive rune, especially the burst effect, then the requirements for one's own physical ability are much higher. If it is an accidental rune, it is easy to become a lose-lose person. This thing is not needed by high-level warriors, and there are too many restrictions on low-level warriors."
"And the depicted runes are not filled with energy like scrolls and equipment, and can be instantly activated as long as they are activated. It requires just like a mage drawing runes. When using them, it takes time to activate the entire pattern before it can be released. You must know that the battle changes rapidly, and the activation of this time may be fatal, so no one of us in the human race has tried again." Speaking of this, Moster smiled and looked at Mu Yun without saying anything.
After hearing President Moster say, Mu Yun's excitement cooled down slightly. He touched his chin and pondered for a moment: "So do anyone like to draw these on his body now, such as some beautiful patterns or something?"
Moster thought for a while and nodded, "Some are there. Some nobles like to draw patterns on their bodies on a whim, but it doesn't last long. Even if you add some lasting potions to blend them, they will gradually fade away in one or two years. Over time, you will lose interest." Looking at Mu Yun's thoughtful look, he said with interest, "Why, it depends on your very interested look. Do you want to do this?"
Mu Yun smiled and said, "Yes, our hometown has this craft, and I have learned some of it. I came to the royal city to see if anyone likes this kind of thing. I can make some money."
"Oh? If you have inherited craftsmanship, you should have your own unique method. If your craftsmanship is very good, you should be able to make some money. Well, in this way, it is rare to meet someone who likes to draw patterns. I happen to have some potions for the elves pattern painting. They are made of blue moon grass as the main one. I will give you a bottle."
"This... is too expensive, I can't accept it." Mu Yun was shocked and quickly refused.
"Don't be embarrassed, just a bottle of ordinary patterned potion, just treat it as my meeting gift. If you have the chance, just show me your skills." As he said that, Most waved and ordered a maid to go get the potion.
Mu Yun thought about it and found that the experiment he wanted to do really needed this kind of potion. If he had to collect it, he would not only have no money, but also slowly look for it. After thinking for a while, he stopped refusing, "Okay, when my admission assessment is successful, I will find an opportunity to show it to you after I can complete the time for my admission assessment."
"Do you want Coponia Farmer Academy?" President Moster thought for a while and said in surprise.
"Yes, I want to learn more about runes, the best thing here is the Bonia Academy, so I want to give it a try."
"Oh, then I'll wish you success in the assessment here." Most said with a smile.
"Thank you." Mu Yun responded with a smile.
The two continued to chat for a few more words. After the maid brought the potion, Mu Yun and Jige left and signed up for the college.
A woman dressed in her thirties, dressed as an assistant, walked up to President Moste and stood down and asked, "Sir, why are you so concerned about this boy? I think she is just an ordinary civilian."
President Moster was looking at Mu Yun and the others leaving. Hearing this, he narrowed his eyes, "This boy is a bit interesting. It is rare to have such a calm mind at a young age. And I just checked it out and seeing that his fluctuation should be an awakened life system, which is very interesting. In addition to the usage of patterns and runes he asked about the alien race, it seems that he wants to imitate the alien race pattern itself, so as to achieve the purpose of practicing or releasing spells."
"So, President, you gave him a bottle of potion with life-source power?"
President Moster smiled, "Yes, after hearing the difference between us and alien pattern painting, he still wants to try it. It seems that there is indeed a unique pattern painting method. It is interesting. Let's see what he will do. There is a good show in the Bonia Academy."
...
Walking on the way to the Boniya Martial Arts Academy, Mu Yun was playing with the bottle in his hand as he walked. It was a small transparent medicine bottle. Through the bottle, you could see some sticky blue liquid inside. Open the lid, sniff it lightly, and you could smell a faint fragrance. Feeling the breath of some life force, which shocked Mu Yun.
Jige took a bag and threw the jerky meat into his mouth while walking. He looked at Mu Yun and said, "That's the branch president of the Void Realm Chamber of Commerce. He is very interested in you when he looks. If you can get his appreciation, you will not worry about anything. Why am I not attracted to you? Otherwise, as long as I can get some benefits to our Chamber of Commerce, I will be expected to be promoted to the Chamber of Commerce." Jige said as he said that.
"By the way, I don't know what kind of patterned things you know yet. Then draw one for me. I agreed to be majestic, so that I can look domineering enough!" Jige suddenly thought of this and said to Mu Yun.
"Okay, no problem. I'll draw one for you after I've studied it." Jige's words interrupted Mu Yun's thoughts, turned his head and smiled at Jige.
When he arrived at the gate of the Boniya Farmer Academy, Mu Yun looked at the big words written on the majestic gate and couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that there would be the day I went back to study in the college, but the content I learned was no longer the previous knowledge."
After explaining the purpose of the guards at the door, the two followed the guards to the place where they reported. Walking in the academy, the wide streets were enough to drive five carriages side by side, with lush and straight trees planted and flowerbeds filled with flowers, extending all the way to the distance and endless.
Because it is still on holiday, there are no people in the college. Looking through the big trees on both sides, most of them are two-story buildings made of gray or yellow stones, with sloping roofs. Some roofs also have small towers, and small buildings are scattered throughout the college, making people look like a residential garden of aristocrats.
When you cross the road, you will suddenly see the light of the sun. In front of a small mountain, there are several tall buildings. The glazed tiles on the circular arches of the building reflect the light of the sun.
"There are actually hills here?" Mu Yun exclaimed in surprise.
When the guard heard this, he turned his head and smiled proudly at the two of them, "It's not just a scenery, but also a place for various martial arts training competitions. If you can enter the academy to study, it will be the glory of your family."
After a while, the guard took the two of them to the front of a building door, turned to them and said to them: "This is the office building, and the registration point is in the lobby on the first floor. You can go in by yourself, don't run around, I will take you out later when I come out."
Mu Yun said thanks and walked into the hall with Jig. It was a coincidence that before the two people who had just entered the hall had time to look at the whole pattern, several familiar figures appeared in front of them. A boy in black aristocratic costume happened to turn around. He was stunned when he saw the two of them, he tidied up his clothes, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "What a coincidence, I can meet you everywhere today. I didn't expect you to want Coponia College. It's really interesting. I look forward to you being admitted to the college. Then I will let you know the difference between aristocrats and civilians."
After saying that, he never looked at Mu Yun again. The young master of the Ospard family walked out of the door. The guard behind him also looked at the two of them with malicious intentions, protecting the young master and leaving.
