067. The Truth and the New Runes Part II
Locke's magic perception was very weak, but at the same time as Cobb's body flickered, he instantly felt the magic riot of Allen's body, like a pile of dry wood under the bright sun, as long as a little spark could burst into flames immediately.
Sure enough, as soon as Cobb's footsteps rushed out of about ten meters, a fireball suddenly appeared in Allen's hand and shot straight at Cobb!
Cobb was shocked, obviously not expecting the fireball to come so quickly, and hurriedly turned around!
The fireball came quickly, almost against the side of his face, and the real burning sensation made Cobb feel like he should be missing more than half of his hair.
Boss, this is too ruthless!
The sudden pause in his body completely interrupted Cobb's rhythm, but the distance between him and Alan had been shortened, and Cobb suddenly burst into force and charged forward again!
"Chief, I'm here...... Damn!"
With the arrogant sound of joy has not yet landed, there is another bright red fireball in front of Cobb's eyes!
This time, the fireball came very quickly, and Cobb couldn't help but panic, rolling on the ground in embarrassment, and the fireball exploded at his feet.
By the time he got up from the ground, a third fireball with a red tail flame swept through the air, and Cobb had completely lost his chance, and he was even more embarrassed by his already unkempt hair.
But it didn't end there, and then the fourth fireball gradually magnified in Cobb's frightened expression, and at this point he had no way to avoid it, so he could only cover his face as much as possible.
Boom!
The explosion of the fireball next to Cobb's side was apparently deliberately redirected by Allen and projected it to the side.
But despite this, Cobb's clothes and hair were charred black by the flames, and he coughed incessantly in the smoke.
Locke is now glad that Alan didn't choose himself, after all, he didn't fight as hard as Cobb.
"Ahem, why did your magic become so fast, I didn't have time to react. ”
Although Cobb is usually a little impulsive, he has some key information in mind, such as Allen's fireball is not released quickly, Dinah's icicle is slower, and Olya's arrow is the fastest, etc.
But the speed of the fireball just now was completely unusual, and even Cobb didn't have time to react at a distance of thirty meters, if it weren't for Allen's mercy, he would have turned into a roast pig.
Alan smiled, and instead of answering Cobb's question directly, he patted him on the shoulder, "Take a good shower." ”
He turned around and left the training ground.
Of course he couldn't say it, otherwise these guys would definitely be pestering for green runes.
I have to say that this green rune called the magic explosion is more powerful than Allen imagined, although there will be a feeling of prostration in the body after use, but I have to say that the feeling of instant catharsis is very comfortable.
The function of this rune is to make the elements in the body abnormally active, increase the casting speed, and shorten the duration between spells.
According to the introduction in the Rune Treasure Book, this rune is best used when it is full, if the magic power in the body is too small, it is likely to empty itself instantly, and it is easy to die suddenly.
Alan didn't know that he wouldn't be in such a situation next time, so he planned to go back to meditate before continuing to practice.
No matter how many runes he has on his body, his own magic level is still the most important foundation, so he can't pull it down for a moment when he meditates.
Alan doesn't have the talent and background like Dinah, so he can only rely on diligence and time to pile up.
Meditation is a very boring process, especially for a second-level mage like Allen, whose elemental perception ability is not strong, and he basically can't feel any obvious changes in his magic power, which is basically equivalent to meditating.
However, this time, as soon as Alan sat down on the bed, his talent for truth suddenly appeared in his mind.
What about the real world in meditation?
However, he had to be sane and not cranky during meditation, so he didn't know if he could use his talent in this state.
Letting go of the doubts in his heart, Alan calmed his mind and began to enter a meditative state, calm and darkness enveloping his vision, occasionally seeing a little starlight enter his body.
Taking advantage of the fact that he has enough energy now, Eren immediately turned on his talent.
Happily, he did not withdraw from the world of meditation, the darkness and calm in front of him did not dissipate, and the occasional point of light was flowing slowly.
The difference is that in the darkness, there are suddenly more free gray dots of light.
After Eren's careful observation, those gray points of light seemed to wander far away from him, and when they swam in front of him, they would slowly become brighter, and then enter his body.
It was as if he was isolated from the black meditation world in front of Allen's eyes, and only those who passed through the black film would brighten up and become his magic.
Alan wondered if he could make this black world bigger and contain more gray spots, or if he could use some method to bring the gray spots closer to his world, would he be able to increase the efficiency of meditation?
After imagining this, Alan began to try, but he didn't know exactly what to do, he just wanted to look further ahead and see wider.
It's a pity that the world that has tried to meditate for a long time has not changed at all.
So he changed his way and tried to make the darkness in front of him grow a hand to grasp the gray spots in the distance, but suddenly he felt a tingling in his head and had to withdraw from the meditation state.
Alan didn't know what was going on, but the energy was too much at the moment, and he could only stop trying for the time being.
After recovering for a while, this time he honestly went into a meditative state.
On the other side, Allen's four consecutive fireballs killed Cobb in an instant had already spread, and in addition to the shock, those who knew the details knew that this was the promotion of runes.
And the most excited is Dinah, although she is not majoring in fire, she believes that Eren will definitely have a rune suitable for her, which also proves that the original choice was not wrong.
As the commander of the territory army, Locke naturally thought more than himself, Allen's pace of progress spurred him, and within two days, Locke selected the twenty rune candidates, and added five more backups.
Locke couldn't let these trivial things hold Alan back any longer.
Locke's self-asserted preparation proved to be effective, and two of the three soldiers selected later had insufficient rune slots to fill in the gaps.
The second recruitment of Eren was no longer so leisurely and elegant, so the process of preaching the pros and cons of runes was a thing of the past.
Except for rune assembly and rune talent detection, he now leaves everything to others.
If it weren't for Dinah's disgust at touching a strange man, Alan wouldn't even want to do such a thing as checking rune qualifications.
These two things seem to be simple processes, but they are very energy-consuming, especially when the number of people reaches twenty, and Eren is also prostrated after the rune assembly is completed.
This also made him have a wish in his heart, when he became powerful in the future, Alan must hire some mages like Dinah to assist him, so that he could hand over most of the trivial matters and study runes with peace of mind.
