Chapter 403 Chapter 406 Carrying rune
When there is no way ahead, make a way out .

"rune is a concept, rune is an abstract concept, it's not alive, it's not alive."

Dagon sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed, continuously repeating this sentence talk. Taking rune apart, whether this idea is feasible or not depends on how to view rune.

If you ask the priest of Ori about this, they will accuse you of blasphemy and ask you to repent. If you ask elven mages about this, they will say that dwarves don't have that ability, they can't do it at all.

Ryder sees this very clearly, and he goes straight to the most important point: "If you see rune as something sacred and immutable given to the Jiangu by Oli, then you will There is no magic cultivator to change rune. But if it is really sacred and immutable, why do elves also have rune, and can also use the rune of the Jiangu family?"

When a very sharp contradiction appears, it is There is a problem with the argument itself. From the priest's sacred point of view, Dagon is indeed blaspheming the classics now, but Dagon can't ignore the actual problem in any case, and he will never throw the problem to the God of Oli, and use dive force to persuade (confuse) everything.

"Oli asked me to improve spell, and he also admitted that the current dive technique, rune and the Jiangu incantation system have problems, so..." Dagon gradually made up his mind and said: "The Jiangu need to change. , If you need to get better, you can't be blocked. Dagon, think about the pros and cons of this matter. If it is done, the rune system of the Jiangu clan will improve; if it fails, it just means you are too stupid , or too arrogant, there is no harm..."

After gaining confidence, the next thing is to find a way. Dagon tried to give the rune as little mana as possible when building the full mana model, watching it grow from nothing. During this period, he also made the part of the word "sparkling" rune with only the "fire" glow. However, at that time, "fire" did not produce its own effect, and as soon as he increased his mana, the word "shuo" was still in play.

Now it's time to completely disassemble the runes, cut their connections, and make them a "fire" and a "joy". hehe, it would be absolutely fun if it did.

The experiment can't be completed overnight. Dagon just has a goal, but there is no path to reach the goal. He must first figure out the theory of this path. This is not "I think it's OK", but there must be enough theoretical basis. Dagon's most proficient is the mana model, which happens to be the basis for all kinds of spells, incantations, and runes, so he definitely has to find ideas in this area.

"Cut the rune away, cut the rune away..." Dagon thought along this line for a long time, but couldn't find a usable tool in the full mana model. So he tried another way of thinking with the encouragement of Reid. He thought of algebra. Numbers are combined, from less to more, from simple to complex. This is a positive and natural process. Then, as rune, which is also an abstract concept, will there be a "natural, positive" process?

"Perhaps the runes should not be cut apart, but they are originally separate and appear in a combined form when used?"

I don't know if it can be done, but it is also an idea.

There is no sense of time in the time-space cage. Dagon and Reid are neither hungry nor sleepy, they can have a lot of time to think and research. But the soul body is not without its disadvantages, Rhett said, they will be attacked by "boring" and gradually lose interest in life. He had experienced this before and named it "emotional fade." Fortunately, as Dagon grows older and has more emotional changes, Dagon can give Rhett the stimuli from the outside world, so that he can continue to feel the passion of life and regain his color.

"But now both of us are soul bodies, and the surrounding environment remains unchanged, so it is still very dangerous." Reid said: "I have not experienced my own life for nearly 70 years, so I need to You keep recalling the bits and pieces of life, mobilizing emotions, so that our two souls don't become ghosts."

So Dagon's daily schedule becomes learning, research, experimentation and memory. Not only does he have to tell stories about his life, but he also has to recall the mood at the time, so as to avoid what Reed calls "emotional fading."

I don't know how long it took, and there was no way to count the time in the room anyway, and Dagon finally made some progress: he took the rune apart, but not completely. For example, with the word "Shuo", he can make "Fire" and "Music" appear separately from the Soul Realm, but at the moment of leaving the Soul Realm, they will still combine together and emit a flash of light, which hurts Dagon's eyes.

"The rune is spawned within the spirit realm, but the control may be on the soul realm boundary. The soul realm boundary...the soul realm boundary..."

Dagon at full mana In the model, functions and areas are designed for natural elements, soul realm, etc., but the problem of their boundaries has not been solved. What creates and maintains boundaries, and what rules govern them?

"It's thought except the laws of nature." Reid's theory is relatively simple. He recently insisted on "playing" with the white haze on the ceiling, and now he has been able to skillfully turn them into some instruments - unfortunately, they can only be seen and useless. Rhett is trying to make these creations have the same texture as the real thing, so he can try to destroy and dig the walls. It's equally ambitious, no less than Dagon's idea of taking rune apart.

In researching this matter, they are very focused, because it is the only thing they can do. Finally one day, Dagon slammed his forehead, jumped to in midair with a smile, and shouted: "I figured it out, I understand! Rune can be disassembled!"

Reid applauded vigorously , laughed heartily, and banged his head and elbow with him to celebrate, before asking how he did it.

"It's actually not that troublesome! I can temporarily disassemble them in the Soul Realm, and then don't let them leave the Soul Realm combination, but I immerse in the experience. I put the 'happy' word rune and ' If you have learned the 'fire' rune, doesn't that mean you have taken them apart?"

"You are seize every opportunity, right?" Reid said: "You have learned two runes, not dismantling them. rune."

"No, it's actually the same! In Literature there is two ultimate goals, one is to use and the other is to understand, right?"

Reid nodded, from consequentialism, does have and only these two purposes.

"If it's just dismantling, then it only satisfies the first purpose, that is, use, which is actually not a rune. I must understand first, otherwise it won't be able to form a rune, then dismantling a rune must be just one Auxiliary means to help achieve results that can be used and understood!" Dagon stroked his beard and said with emotion: "It's really not easy to do this, it took me several circles to figure out the joints. It's a huge improvement in the rune technology of the Jiangu family, and you can learn rune by dismantling in the future!"

"What's the use of fire and music?" Reid is more concerned about the results.

"Fire" rune can ignite, heat up, and ablate, and "happy" rune can make mood change in the direction of light, and can also produce a sudden increase. Dagon believes that the essence of the word rune is "sudden enhancement of the rays of light of the flame", that is, strong light. If you want to suddenly increase the impact of the flame, it is "exploded".

Although there are two more rune tools on hand, Dagon found through experiments that a simple "fire" rune cannot cause damage to the array on the wall, he must have stronger attack power. Because of the similarity of the rune words "fire, sparkle" and "explosion", he began to wonder if he could recombine the rune words that were removed.

"Uh, try it, I don't understand the rune of your Jiangu clan at all." Reid waved his hand, indicating that he couldn't understand spell. He has recently become fascinated by the circle and ball, wondering if he can use the fog to affect it, so as to test its properties. If it wasn't for the worry that this was the Soul Spirit middle bound with circles and balls, if he woke up or annoyed the big guy, they might not end well, and Reid really took action.

Recombining the rune word is more difficult than splitting it up. The key is that Dagon has relatively few raw materials, so what can be combined? Oh, after thinking about it, it seems that it is only reasonable to use "Yong" and "Power" to form "Yong", then he must first disassemble the "Movement" to obtain "Cloud" and "Power".

Perpetual motion runes are the key to keeping them from being frozen by time, and they must not be tampered with. Fortunately, Dagon can disassemble the runes inside the soul domain. As long as they do not leave the soul domain, they will not really take effect, and will not affect the "perpetual motion" that has been running. Due to the need to be more careful, this work is much more laborious than disassembling the "sparkle", and no mistakes can be made. So Dagon took a long detour, first disassembled the rune used for the puppet mount, and learned the word "cloud", and then went to toss "move".

Patience and meticulousness finally paid off, and Dagon took the "rune" apart safely, giving him three more runes. "Zhi" indicates the change of position and the intermediate process, "cloud" is light and small and wide in scope and spread by Water Elements, and the word "force", rune, has a very broad role, as if all the concepts of "applying an influence on it and causing changes" can use it.

"These concepts exist in nature, and they are abstracted into runes. We don't really produce runes, we are just transporting runes." Dagon said: "Ryder, this rune is really like mathematics, in fact Every number doesn't actually exist, but it just works. But rune is closer to reality than math, so it can be spelled."

"Yeah, math is more abstract," Reid said. : "Should you be thinking about combining rune?"

"Actually, it's already done." Dagon said, "After separating the rune with the word 'Power', I immediately took the rune with the word 'Yong' over. Try combinations. Since I already understood the parts, I quickly found where they came together."

The word rune for "Yong" is sound and control. object. And it is combined with "force", that is, to enhance control, to "control one's emotions" through "voice of the heart". The so-called courage is not to be attacked and hurt by the outside world, to continue to maintain the original heart and self, and to face any danger and threat in the best state.

"Okay, it can be dismantled and combined again, you have made progress!" Reid said casually: "If you can split the rune of the word 'yong' into strokes, you will probably have any rune. Can be combined..."
