Chapter 9: Purple-winged Butterflies
Shining Gold Town, a very ordinary courtyard.
There is a vast and unknown space underground, with huge counters on all sides, and a kerosene lamp is burning, illuminating the gloomy basement.
It also illuminates the shelves, and in thousands of small compartments, there are various animal specimens, all soaked in a strange pale green liquid, giving off a slightly pungent smell of uric acid.
Charles sat at his desk and began to draw, a very complex and strange pattern slowly taking shape under his pen, which looked like a mess, but there was a very strange melody.
This is the basic inheritance factor of the totem, like the fingers on the human body, only a small part of the complete totem, but it is more complex than the design of a two-story villa.
Bruce looked at him with blazing eyes, full of exclamation: "I didn't expect you to get started in less than ten days, and your level is already approaching the mastery level!" ”
"It's still the teacher's note, I followed the detailed explanation above, so that I can master the drawing method of the inheritance factor so quickly." Charles smiled reservedly, complimented each other slightly, and looked at each other expectantly.
"Teacher, can I learn runes next?"
"It's still far from it, learning runes requires extremely flexible gestures, and cartography can practice the stability and flexibility of your fingers and arms, and after reaching the mastery level, you can easily learn runes."
Bruce shook his head and looked serious, like an old teacher who hates iron and steel, and said, "If you want to go further in the future, you must lay a good foundation in the early stage, and mapping is the foundation of everything." ”
"Teacher, I think I should have entered the mastery level......" Charles said weakly, he didn't expect to expose the entry level to be completely unable to impress the other party, so he had to leak a little bit again.
"Ha, do you understand the meaning of mastery?" The other party looked incredulous, looking like you were teasing me, "You know, it will take half a year for the most genius life spirit master to enter the mastery level." Back then, when I entered the mastery level in three months, I could only rank in the top 10 of the school. ”
Bruce was visibly proud of this, and shook his head, and his long golden hair flowed with him, making Charles feel a glimmer of radiance.
He pursed his lips and interrupted the other party's show: "Teacher, won't you let me try it?" ”
"Mastery level, this means that the inheritance factor can be realized, you have only practiced for less than ten days, and you have not even seen the true face of the inheritance factor, how can you draw it?" Bruce shook his head and looked at him disappointed, "Little one, you need to be forced to calm down now, don't be too ambitious, that won't do you the slightest benefit." ”
Charles felt a little painful, the other party had always been gentle and elegant, like a gentleman, but now he had been chattering like an old lady with bound feet.
He put his right hand on his chest, bowed to the other party and said loudly, "Teacher Bruce, please show me the inheritance factor and see if I can draw it!" ”
"You're really not giving up!"
Bruce shook his head, feeling more and more disappointed, and after staring at him fixedly for a few seconds, his pale blue eyes looked at him fixedly, and then sighed, "Okay, then let you see what the inheritance factor is!" ”
Charles was instantly shocked, and after being verbose for so long, the other party finally came up with some dry goods.
It is clearly stated in the notes that if you want to see the inheritance factor, you must analyze the living things.
Don't get me wrong, it's not the dissection you might imagine, putting creatures on the bench like guinea pigs.
Instead, he uses the source power to envelop it with scanning runes, like an X-ray scan, scanning the entire inside and outside of the opponent to form a three-dimensional map.
This is followed by the most critical parsing process, which uses unique parsing runes to automatically analyze the inheritance factors contained in the atlas like the most sophisticated computers.
In this process, the biological knowledge mastered by the Soul Master will be used as the source of power, driving the analysis of runes to continue to study in depth. The richer the knowledge mastered, the more thorough the research will be, and the more complete the inheritance factors will be.
Only by mastering a sufficiently complete inheritance factor can the totem evolve!
"No matter what kind of living thing, there is a hidden inheritance factor in the body, which represents the direction of the other party's future evolution. There are many kinds of inheritance factors in an organism, which means that there are also many kinds of evolutionary directions. Below, I'll show you the complete inheritance factor of a totem! ”
Charles's eyes widened, and he watched the other man's next move without blinking.
I saw Bruce take out a marble-sized black spar, hold it in the palm of his hand, and move his fingers slightly, and a gray air flow flows out of this hedron and merges into his palm.
The color of the spar quickly faded, and in a blink of an eye, it turned colorless and transparent, and exploded like a bubble, turning into dusty and fine things scattered on the ground one after another.
Bruce's hands crossed a strange trajectory, somewhat similar to Taoist seals, and one by one he released a complicated gesture in the blink of an eye.
Airplanes!
He seemed to hear a soft sound, and a pale blue halo suddenly appeared in front of the other party, and then the halo dispersed, and a butterfly the size of a basin appeared in the middle.
It has a pink-cyan nose-like thing on its head, a pair of dark red compound eyes, and a wide light blue wing that slowly flickers, with black and white veins on it, sprinkling pieces of fluorescence as the wings flapp.
Charles inhaled a little dust, and suddenly felt a little dizzy in his head, which made him more and more sleepy.
"This is the purple-winged butterfly, which generally lives in forests or places overgrown with trees, especially in areas that are often wet and foggy. The one you see now is the one I caught in the Twilight Forest. ”
After Bruce showed it, he casually made a few more cumbersome gestures, and suddenly a faint circle of light appeared, enclosing the huge butterfly in it.
He smiled and said, "The wings of the purple-winged butterflies are covered with fine waterproof scales, and when they shake their wings, the scales on them fall off, which is very toxic enough to make ordinary people unconscious. ”
A trace of horror appeared in Charles's eyes, but he didn't expect that the most common low-level totem in the game, a beautiful appearance that is harmless to humans and animals, is so terrifying in reality.
"You don't have the protection of the guardian aura, so you can't resist this poison, and this is also the biggest gap between ordinary people and life spirit masters. Even the most rubbish guardian aura is enough to withstand the attacks of the strongest martial artists among ordinary people! ”
Bruce showed a proud look, and his tone was full of condescension, obviously looking down on those warriors from the bottom of his heart.
Then he made a series of complex gestures with both hands, and said lightly: "Next, I'll let you take a look at the complete inheritance factor map, take a closer look!" ”
Silver-white lines emerge out of thin air, moving in and out of the purple-winged butterfly's body, forming a zongzi in the blink of an eye.
After a while, strange patterns emerged from the purple-winged butterfly, as if it contained some mysterious power, so that Charles was addicted to it just by looking at it, and could no longer break free.
"How can there be so many demonic geniuses in the world, another guy who can't do anything about himself." Bruce shook his head, knowing very well in his heart.
The inheritance factor is not something that anyone can see, it is like a kind of learning that cannot be interrupted at will. If you can't understand it, you can't break free, and you can only interrupt it with external force.
Once interrupted by external forces, you will be mentally depressed for a few days, or you will become an idiot directly!
Just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly saw the other party raise his head, and his eyes flashed with a bright light: "Teacher, I understand!" ”
"Are you alright?" Bruce was amazed, he didn't expect him to break free on his own.
Charles shook his head, walked straight to the table, picked up his quill, and began to draw a series of lines into patterns, and in a few moments he was covered with parchment that was larger than a newspaper.
After Bruce glanced at the pattern on it, he was stunned for a moment: "You really understand it, how is it possible?!" ”
