Chapter 0261: Strength Accumulation
The experiment went extremely well.
Even the smooth ones far exceeded Grim's expectations.
When Torre staggered out of the chamber with a stack of parchment, he could not see any damage other than his face was a little pale and his mind was a little dazed.
Grim took out the three books he had promised, sent him away, and began to examine the parchment in his hand in detail.
Sure enough, two of the ten pieces of parchment that were supposed to have runes painted on them were completely blank, and the Toller didn't seem to realize it at all.
Grim thought about it briefly, first collected and sorted out the eight verified runes, and then tried them one by one, and successfully obtained eight completely new runes that had never appeared in the wizard rune system.
With these eight runes, tonight's attempt is not a complete failure, at least it is rewarding, isn't it?
However, for the two runes that disappeared for no reason, Grim was also very curious in his heart, and vaguely felt that his research direction seemed to be a little off.
Seriously speaking, the new runes that were successfully deduced by the chip were all secondary runes of auxiliary nature, and none of the key runes that played a leading role in the fusion of rune energy were successful. Seem...... It seems that these runes also hide some deep mysteries that they don't understand.
What are runes?
In the final analysis, it is just a manifestation of the law of the plane!
The origin of the origin of the runes, the earliest records also originated from the study of magic patterns. Although some powerful monsters do not understand any knowledge and principles, they can smoothly unleash extraordinary powers. And on their bodies, they will also naturally form some magic patterns.
The wizards were originally a group of mortals, but while fighting brutally with the monsters, they noticed the existence of the magic pattern and began to steal the magic pattern little by little. First of all, he used the method of copying to draw these magic patterns on his body, so that he had some special extraordinary powers.
The wizards who tasted the sweetness continued to collect magic patterns, accumulate magic patterns, and began to try to simplify and transform magic patterns. So after tens of thousands of years of endless exploration in the dark, the current wizard rune literature was created, and indirectly caused the development and growth of the wizard community.
So seriously speaking, runes are the discipline that is closest to the origin of the laws of the plane!
Then these otherworldly runes from the knight plane, among which the dominant core runes have not been parsed for a long time, and even simple writing cannot be successful. This fully exposes that the generation of core runes must have secrets that they don't know yet.
What would that be?
A group of low-level natives of the secondary plane, who have not even established a formed spell casting system, what a high level of rune knowledge they can study!
Wait a minute......
Grim slammed into a slam.
It seems that not all of the knight planes are low-level creatures, and there are some alien high-level creatures there as well...... Green Dragon.
Grim's eyes lit up, and he felt as if he had realized something.
He brought back a large number of rare materials and texts from the drawing room of the Demon Casting Camp in the Knight Kingdom, but his attention was all focused on some content related to runes, and he never cared about the history of the formation of the Knight Kingdom.
Now that he has discovered his own omission, Grim immediately corrected it, and successfully spent a night combing through the so-called history of the Knight Kingdom.
Sure enough, in the history of the Knight Kingdom, Grim discovered some hidden secrets behind history.
The appearance of the profession of Demon Hunter Knight was after the Green Dragon Clan became the guardian of the Knight Kingdom. And the high-level demon hunters seem to have something to do with dragons.
This gave Grim every reason to suspect that the true source of these otherworldly runes was not the natives of the knight plane, but the dragons from the dragon plane.
Suddenly understanding this, Grim didn't say a word, and directly used his wizard authority to move all the books and materials about the dragon family of the Sarubo family back to his residence. This hard reading day and night, although it was a bit hard, also allowed him to greatly complete the database related to the dragon.
As a powerful clan that rampantly runs through the major material planes, the wizards naturally study them quite thoroughly, so after adding this part of the information, the chip's analysis of the otherworldly runes is also going very smoothly.
Almost every day, the chip is able to deduce some new runes from these otherworldly runes. Some of these runes are useful, some are completely useless, and the specific verification work is completely left to Torre.
And Leto is also worthy of being a high-level apprentice with an affinity for illusions, and he really has a talent beyond ordinary people in illusion resistance. Although those fragmented rune illusions often stirred his head up, and even almost lured his spiritual consciousness into the illusion space a few times, he broke through one by one.
The abundance of books and free resources provided by Grim also saved Leto from the pain of running around to gather resources, and he was finally able to conduct his own research in the Wizard's Tower. But all he had to pay for it was four to five new runes a day!
Moreover, as an experimental collaborator of Wizard Grim, he can meet Grim almost every day, so he is no longer limited by the number of questions he can ask. In terms of treatment in all aspects, Tollé is almost equal to the status of a wizard's disciple.
And this seems to have become the main reason why he is willing to risk his life to stay!
As for Alice, she soon became the eldest sister of Grim's group of apprentices. After a few fights with other apprentices with them, she quickly became one of the giants of the Wizarding Tower in Ferdinand.
With Alice's terrifying spatial talent, except for the official wizard who can crush her with great strength, the rest of the wizard apprentices, even powerful quasi-witches, will have a hard time subduing her. And Alice is undoubtedly already in the ranks of the strongest quasi-witches.
And Kirby, who successfully became a goblin merchant with the blessing of Grimm, became closer and closer to Grim when the name of the fire demon became more and more famous.
The wizarding world is also a world of competition between the jungle and the strong!
Most of the businesses such as trading houses, chambers of commerce, and secret huts are controlled by wizarding families and forces large and small. As a lone outsider, Kirby wants to earn a living in their jobs, so he naturally has to be oppressed and excluded everywhere.
Therefore, the goblin shop opened by Kirby only dared to operate in Ferdinand City, and once it stepped out of this area, its small business and small means were swallowed up by many peers in minutes.
And now, with Grim's status in the Sarupo family growing, Kirby is desperately trying to curry favor with Alice and Grim's apprentices.
Grim's apprentices enjoyed the cheap resources provided by Kirby, and Kirby brought in a large number of bodyguards and thugs for himself in disguise, so the two sides were mutually beneficial, and a small circle and small group were formed.
And for all this, Grim ignored it, and let them develop and grow in self-union. As for himself, he devoted all his attention to the process of parsing and verifying the runes.
After two months passed imperceptibly, Grim was able to successfully resolve 6 of the 28 new runes. It didn't sound like much, but it was enough for him to expand his knowledge of rune energy fusion to the level of the second-order Radiant Knight.
This also indicates that Grim has completely mastered all the rune mysteries on the second-order Radiant Knight, and is able to build a powerful rune knight by himself.
It's just that the strength of the second-order Radiant Knights lies in themselves, and the rune energy system only plays an auxiliary and guiding role. Therefore, even if Grim creates runic weapons with Tier 2 abilities, he still can't exert powerful attack power without strong strength to drive them.
However, it seems that Grim has a lot of resources in his hands with a second-order title!
The Tier 2 Molten Giant's Heart from the Underground Lava Sea, the Tier 2 Flame Demon Heart from Lord Sarupo, and the remains of the Radiant Knight killed and captured on the Knight Plane. It's a pity that Grim is not a professional necromancer, otherwise concocting some powerful undead would be a matter of hand.
With this knowledge of runes, Grim became more and more busy.
The resources procured through Goblin Kirby are already in place, and the concoction and processing of the Heart of the Fire Demon is also proceeding rapidly. There are still 4 wizard-level elemental crystal nuclei and 1 Tier 2 molten core giant heart core waiting for him to deal with in the storage room one by one, and upgrading his Fire Demon Transformation Tattoo according to the newly acquired rune knowledge has become the top priority.
Even in his spare time, Grim is busy designing and crafting rune weapons that suit his abilities and talents......
This whole set of things is so busy that Grim's daily time is so full that he can't find any free moments!
The 4 wizard-level elemental crystal nuclei used to practice unfortunately failed twice, and Grim only harvested two magic golem crystal nuclei in the end. One is the rotter, the other is the growler.
The Rotten is a wizard-level golem crafted from the Poison Elemental Nucleus, resembling a slime covered in slimy green liquor, with special abilities such as acid splash, toxic aura, and cleaved proliferate.
The strong acid spewed by the Rotten is extremely corrosive and poisonous, effectively eroding the opponent's defenses. Its splitting proliferation allows it to self-disintegrate into two smaller rotpers when it takes enough damage, resulting in more ferocious firepower.
And the maximum number of splits and proliferations of the Rotten can reach 3 times at the moment!
This also indicates that once the Rotten is released, after a long battle, Grim will be able to harvest 8 wizard-level firepower batteries.
As for the Growler, which is made from the Earth Elemental Crystal Nucleus, it is a huge stone man with a height of 5 meters, and its special abilities include Great Trembling, Boulder Throwing, Rock Armor, etc.
To be honest, in order to make the most of the destructive power of his fire-based talents, Grim is especially fond of these golems with super defense.
And this growler is undoubtedly the meat shield and bodyguard that Grim desperately needs!
