Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

Chapter 177 New changes, the secret of the runes
Thinking of this, Chu Ming couldn't help sighing, he felt that he was cultivating a monster.

I don't know how far he can train the witch knight after he reaches the top of the epic.

After chatting with several wizards for half an hour, Aaron rode back to the camp with a tired look on the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine.

"Aaron."

Chu Ming called out to him.

Allen was shocked, and looked in the direction of the sound, with a surprised expression on his face, "Narend, you're back?!"

"How is the southern border now?"

After the wizards left, Chu Ming motioned him to sit down, "The situation is not good, the southern border has completely become a paradise for black wizards, and then they will focus on the northern border and completely destroy the Fengyang Empire. "

Hearing this, Allen's finger holding the water glass froze, and said with a wry smile: "Narend, to be honest, if you weren't here, I think I might have started to despair now."

The corners of Chu Ming's lips curled up, "Edel and I have gained a lot from this journey."

"We brought back four epics from the capital, as well as most of the wizard tower wizards and church priests."

"And also harvested a lot of top-quality crystals."

After speaking, Chu Ming took out five staffs from the cloth bag.

The crystal inlaid on the staff shone coldly in the candlelight. Narende was taken aback for a moment, but gradually became emotional.

"Doesn't that mean that the territory will add five more epics?!"

Chu Ming shook his finger and said with a smile, "Wrong, it's fourteen."

"Two epic wizards of the king's capital, two epic priests, five priests with extreme rune staffs, and five wizards with extreme rune staffs."

"If we add five more of us, the epic of the entire territory can reach nineteen."

"nineteen?!"

Allen was in a trance, and he felt as if he was dreaming.

Chu Ming just went to the royal capital, why there are fourteen more epics.

Chu Ming smiled without saying a word, waiting for Allen to come back to his senses.

After a while, Allen's excited mood calmed down a little.

Chu Ming put the staff on the table and said, "Ah Lun, you don't need to pay attention to the frontier."

"After you go back to the wizard's tower, give these five staffs to a trustworthy spiritual wizard."

Allen put away his staff and nodded cautiously.

After chatting with Allen for a while, Chu Ming asked the question he was most concerned about, "How is it? Are there any top-quality crystals produced in the mine?"

After hearing this, Allen smiled wryly and said, "This mine is indeed rich in crystal reserves, but there are not many top-quality crystals."

"This month, the mine produced a total of 120 ordinary-quality spiritual crystals, but only one top-quality crystal."

Chu Ming was not too disappointed, he just patted Allen on the shoulder, "This is just the beginning, and it will get better and better in the future."

Allen nodded, worried: "Actually, I am more worried about the dark wizard."

"How terrifying is the power that can destroy the entire southern border."

There are a total of 25 epic wizards in the entire southern border, and there are more epic wizards whose identities have not been revealed.

Even so, the entire southern border fell into the hands of the black wizard.

These black wizards still really make people shiver with fear.

Chu Ming didn't say anything, just comforted him a few words, then returned to the camp and returned to the wizard's hut.

A month after he left, the wizard's hut was still kept clean, and it could be seen that someone cleaned it frequently.

After returning to the laboratory, the surroundings were quiet, and Chu Ming's heart became peaceful and tranquil.

"Cuckoo..."

At this time, Polly, who was standing on the shelf, turned to look at him.

Chu Ming stroked its soft hair and said with a smile, "Isabel has already come, I will take you to find her tomorrow."

"Cuckoo..."

……

After returning to the Earl of Kutz, Chu Ming's life began to become dull again.

In order to explore the way behind meditation and witchcraft, he reincarnated as a research madman and lived directly in the laboratory.

During the period when Chu Ming was immersed in exploring the path of wizards, the territory also ushered in new changes.

The first is the increase of wizards in the wizard tower. After the two epic wizards, Emeka and Dino, came to Count Coutts, they directly led the wizards in the wizard tower of the capital to merge into Chuming's wizard tower.

These two epic wizards from the capital, who lived for most of their lives, were instantly amazed after seeing the spiritual witchcraft for the first time, and then joined the study of spiritual witchcraft, and the two people's dying lives were rejuvenated The second spring came out.

In the Eagle Horn Territory, Burrett also included most of the knights from the major forces into the Cavaliers for the sake of maintaining order.

After testing, Edel found some knights with wizard talents among these knights. After he selected these knights, he planned to train them into a new generation of wizard knights.

In this way, the number of witches in the territory is expected to exceed five hundred.

After the Church of Life decided to rebuild the church, they chose the location of the church near the wizard's tower on the border.

Now Isabel is busy with the construction of the church all day long. Although she is very busy every day, the girl feels that she has found her goal and enjoys it.

Occasionally, when she had some free time, she would go to the wizard's hut to look for Chu Ming.

At this time, Chu Ming would put down the experiments and hang out with her.

……

The Earl of Coutts is developing steadily and thriving.

Outside the earl's territory, the entire northern border was already undercurrents.

After the royal family fled to the north, they took back Jones and Madeleine, two adjacent earldoms with crystal veins, and completely took root in the northwest of the north.

The Truth Society became even crazier after experiencing the failure of the capital, and led the black wizards to attack the three pass fortresses in the northern border frantically.

In order to protect themselves, the major earls in the northern border dispatched knights and epic forces to station in the pass fortress under the leadership of the royal family.

Although Burrett gritted his teeth with hatred for William Stelman, he also understood that now was not the time to turn against the royal family.

After discussing with Chu Ming, they decided to send three epic wizards and wizard cavalry to the pass for support.

The reason why the two sent the witch cavalry team was partly because they wanted to let the major counties see the power of rune equipment, so as to completely open up the market for rune equipment and make it popular throughout the northern border.

In this way, while earning spiritual crystals, they can increase the strength of other counties, allowing them to last longer in the face of dark wizards.

The bloody lesson of the fall of the king's capital was before them. After the imperial knights and dark wizards gathered at the pass, the knights did not dare to relax, relying on their experience and geographical advantages to repel the attacks of the dark wizards side by side.

It is not that the dark wizards did not launch a wave of dark beasts during this period, but with the support of the resources of the entire northern border, the pass fortress held out wave after wave of offensives.

In the absence of the epic wizard who broke through the limit of the Truth Society, the situation was completely deadlocked.

Half a year after the attack, the black wizard gave up the idea of ​​breaking through the pass fortress, and began to instigate the black wizard in the northern border to trigger an attack.

It has to be said that this trick really works. The black wizards attack the towns under the earl like hounds, and they often retreat before the arrival of the earl's knights. This makes the nobles a headache and helpless.

The Earl of Coutts, relying on the large number of epic wizards, directly dispatched epic wizards to major towns and cities. As soon as the black wizards came, the epic wizards would immediately attack and eliminate these dark wizards who dared to invade the earldom.

Over time, the black wizard also understood that the Earl of Coutts was not easy to mess with, so he reduced his activities on the northeast border.

And in this special period when black wizards were rampant, the rune equipment from the Earl of Coutts in the north unexpectedly became the heart of the nobles.

They found that it often took many years to train a knight or a wizard, and the cost of training and maintenance was not low.

But if you just buy rune equipment to equip ordinary militiamen, then the strength of these militiamen will soon be comparable to some apprentice knights or formal knights.

It is precisely because of the various advantages of rune equipment that in just half a year, it has gone from being little known to the point where a piece of equipment is hard to find.

Immediately afterwards, the Earl of Coutts had a new wizard system-the news of the spiritual wizard system quickly spread to the major earldoms along with the circulation of rune equipment.

Even if the nobles repeatedly blocked them, they couldn't stop the pilgrimage of the fanatical wizards. They were not afraid of the difficult and dangerous journey, and they went to the Earl of Coutts after going through many obstacles, hoping to see the new wizarding system.

In just two months, more than 100 wizards came to the Earl of Coutts. The wizarding capital that Chu Ming once told Edel seemed to be gradually becoming a reality.

In the borderlands, after half a year, a huge wizard tower was erected after spending the entire earldom's financial and material resources.

In the original plan, eight auxiliary towers of the same size as the original wizard tower would be built around the wizard tower before the project could be considered complete.

However, with the expansion of the number of wizards in the earl's territory, the original wizard tower has already been overwhelmed.

For this reason, Allen specifically approached the door and explained the situation to Chu Ming.

After understanding the urgency of the matter, Chu Ming discussed with Buret and decided to clean up the main tower first, and let the wizards and apprentices move to the border wizard tower.

On the day of the tower opening ceremony, in the charred ruins, Chu Ming personally showed the power of spiritual witchcraft to some wizards who came here especially, and announced the name of the new wizard tower—the Tower of Knowledge.

After the wizard's tower's apprentice test started that day, the team almost left the border area. After several days and nights of testing, the wizard's tower finally accepted a total of [-] wizard apprentices and [-] wizards.

The number of wizards in the wizard tower has directly increased to 300, including 27 dark blue wizards, more than 200 official wizards, and more than 100 dark green wizards.

After the opening of the Wizard Tower, Burrett also announced his abdication and decided to let Edel inherit the title.

Edel will be in charge of the construction of the new city. The boundaries of the new city will start from the banks of the Winter River next to the Earl of Coutts to the border, and include the Wizard Tower and the Church of Life built there.

If this new capital can be built, it will definitely not be smaller than Fengyang Royal Capital. Such a grand plan, the possibility of successful implementation is naturally questioned by some people.

Under such circumstances, Edel inherited the title of earl with the support of Chu Ming and Buret, and insisted on implementing the new capital plan.

……

Time passed, another half a year passed, and one year had passed since Chu Ming went to the capital for rescue.

wizard hut.

Since the completion of the new wizard tower, there have been fewer wizards around here, and Aaron and the others are busy with their own business, and have no time to come back, and the six wizard apprentices he accepted a few years ago have also reached the dark green level. I am struggling to become an official wizard, and the time to come back is running out.

With fewer people, Chu Ming was happy to be at leisure.

Now the wizard tower is under the care of Allen, and Edel is in charge of the territory. As long as it is not urgent, he does not need to pay special attention to it, so he devotes himself to studying meditation and witchcraft.

Over the course of a year, Chu Ming has encountered failures and the joy of solving difficult problems. In any case, the research on breaking through the limits of witchcraft has also deepened.

Sitting at the table, Chu Ming was arranging the new notes he had written and preparing for the experiment.

In fact, as early as a year ago, Chu Ming had some ideas about breaking through the limit.

Before that, he discovered that the fixed string of runes composed of runes has special meanings, and when released, it can cause witchcraft fluctuations.

In view of this situation, he spent three months trying to summarize the rune strings in all the runes, and then spent another month sorting out false and wrong rune strings.

After four months, he summed up a total of 160 sets of rune strings, some of which are the same, but arranged in different order, but they can also trigger witchcraft fluctuations.

Some rune strings can be as long as eleven runes, while others are as short as three runes.

Moreover, the strings of runes seem to be divided into several types, and their respective effects and functions in the arrangement of runes are unknown.

It looks disorganized and out of order.

During the whole month after sorting out the rune strings, Chu Ming fell into trouble and tried to draw out the rules from them. After countless failures, he finally found a turning point in the witchcraft of activation stimulation.

He found that the reason why the activation stimulus can work together with other witchcraft is because there is an associated rune string in the rune of the activation stimulus.

There are a total of six runes in this associated rune string, but there are three runes at the head of the rune chain, and three runes at the end of the rune chain.

But the amazing thing is that both the first three runes and the last three runes can trigger the wave of witchcraft independently, and they can also trigger together.

Chu Ming didn't find out before because he thought each rune string was separate, and he didn't expect that there could be a connection between the rune strings.

After having this clue, Chu Ming continued to research and explore, and he discovered many interlinked rune strings.

After re-comparing the original witchcraft runes with all the rune strings, Chu Ming suddenly found that some rune strings had no connection with other rune strings, and even rejected the connection between the rune strings.

At this point, Chu Ming finally realized that these rune strings may be divided into two types, one is rune strings that can be connected with each other, and some are independent rune strings.

In subsequent experiments, he finally determined the functions of the two rune strings.

The first and last rune strings possessed by the activation stimulus are associated knots, which can be used to control the connection of witchcraft and express independent rune strings, and those independent rune strings belong to characteristic modules, which determine the characteristics of witchcraft.

He summed it up and simplified the formula for a complete 21-rune ultimate sorcery to:

The origin of witchcraft + association knot + characteristic module

After the sorcery has an association link, it can become more powerful with the addition of characteristic modules.

For example, Chu Ming's magic bone dragon vine witchcraft is tree vine witchcraft plus giant bones.

Among them, the skeleton belongs to the additional feature module, and the giant is the size of the expression of the association.

Of course, the complexity of witchcraft cannot be summed up by a simple formula.

Some associations are located at the beginning of the witchcraft rune chain, some are at the end, some are in the middle, and some have both the beginning and the end... The situation is very complicated.

Moreover, the rune strings of the characteristic modules are not that simple. Chu Ming divides the characteristic modules into two types. One is a module that directly adds bones to the tree vine like the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine, called Substance.

And those modules that represent growth, activation, and withering are named by Chu Ming as sex.

So far, he has analyzed the general type of the rune string.

So he continued to advance along this research line of thought, and studied the functions of some association nodes and feature modules.

Like activation stimulation witchcraft, the associated knot it carries is called synergy, which allows witchcraft to be released in coordination with other witchcraft, and the characteristic module is called activation, which can increase power.

In fact, it is not enough to understand the structure of witchcraft, so it is impossible to transform the ultimate witchcraft.

If you want to break through the limit of 21 runes, you must find a link that can connect runes infinitely.

After searching a bunch of messy data for a month, Chu Ming finally found a special witchcraft—circular breathing.

The source of this sorcery is a creature called a sleeping pig.

This kind of creature spends most of its life sleeping, and when it falls asleep, it will instinctively release its blood talent, and absorb various mysterious energies through breathing to maintain its body.

Chu Ming discovered that this witchcraft called circular breathing takes effect for a very short time, only between one breath and one breath, and after that, it needs to repeat this witchcraft to maintain the long-term effect.

But this witchcraft is not like other witchcraft, there is an interval between releases, and it seems to be able to be released continuously.

After realizing this, Chu Ming immediately conducted a lot of experiments on this witchcraft, and finally got a connection called loop.

Chu Ming's idea is that if different witchcraft runes can be triggered in the cycle of associations, can the cycle be used to connect these different witchcrafts to form a large-scale witchcraft.

So he used cycle runes to design some new rune arrangements, and then as long as he passed the experiment, he could know whether these designed witchcraft could work normally.

After thinking about it, Chu Ming came to the backyard again with his notes.
