Chapter 99: Rune Rune
The reforged Hidden Blade doesn't look much different from before.
Atri used the high-strength wood material he had left at hand to strengthen the folding crossbow on his left arm, increasing the range and accuracy of the crossbow arrows.
The left hand of the Hidden Blade that popped up easily cut off the steel bar that Atrii had deliberately taken out as a target, and the sharpness and hardness were further improved.
The power of the Ulu alloy is obviously not just like this, Lu Xiao can feel it when he puts on the arm armor, and this pair of weapons has formed a wonderful spiritual connection with himself.
Atri knew that Lu Xiao came from Midgard, the atrium world where technology and magic were relatively backward, and made some explanations for him.
"A weapon forged from Uru has the potential to grow, and the closer it is connected to its owner, the more powerful it can be."
"You can't fully activate all the abilities of this pair of Hidden Blades yet, I suggest you find someone to learn Asgard's rune spells first, so that you can activate the rune I have engraved on the weapon."
Lu Xiao nodded kindly and accepted Eri's suggestion, after this trip to Nidavel, he planned to return to Kama Taj to recharge first, and there was definitely a record of Rune's runes in the spell book collected by the Ancient One.
Compared to the left arm armor suit, which is just a simple reinforcement, the right arm armor has changed a lot.
Although Atri retained the shape of the blade made by Leonardo da Vinci, the bulky barrel and magazine disappeared from the Hidden Blade suit, replaced by a wisp of pocket barrel that clings to the back of the Hidden Blade's blood groove.
Most of the caliber of modern pistols is limited to 6 mm, and Lu Xiao's original sleeve gun has a smaller caliber, only about 3 mm.
And the ultra-pocket barrel made by Ai Cui definitely does not exceed a 2 mm caliber, and Lu Xiao is very skeptical about what role this caliber weapon can play.
Ai Cui was not surprised by Lu Xiao's hesitation, he urged confidently: "You can try it, just hit wherever you want, remember to infuse the magic power to activate." β
Lu Xiao raised his right hand and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the signboard of a tavern on the side of the road.
With the infusion of magic power, a faint silver streamer began to flash on the surface of the pocket barrel, and a beam-like energy erupted from the muzzle, hitting the signboard that Lu Xiao had chosen as a target almost in the blink of an eye.
"Boom!"
A pop that was seriously inconsistent with the caliber of the Hidden Gun came from where the magic beam hit, and the huge steel signboard was blasted off the entire shelf, and the drunken dwarves below hurriedly dodged to the sides.
"Which OO raised bastard did it! Don't let me find you! OOO you XXX! β
The "elegant and easy-going" dwarf tavern owner angrily rushed out of the store and spat out the fragrance, Lu Xiao subconsciously shrank his head, Ai Cui laughed and patted him on the shoulder, and the huge hand strength slapped Lu Xiao into a grin.
"Don't worry, this situation is normal in Nidavel, every day there are drunken dwarves wreaking havoc everywhere, they are used to it."
Pointing to the Hidden Gun in Lu Xiao's hand, Ai Cui explained again: "The new Hidden Gun is activated with magic power, and the power can be adjusted according to the amount of magic infused, so you can slowly try to output the strength yourself." β
Lu Xiao patted Ai Cui's thick and short arm in gratitude: "Thank you, Ai Cui, I will use this new weapon well." β
"Hahaha! That's good! β
Attrine laughed heartily, "As long as you can properly use the weapons I forged and use their true abilities, it is the greatest recognition for a blacksmith." β
"Come on, Lu."
Before parting, the seemingly rough and arrogant Atri reminded meaningfully: "Frigga will not give Uru metal to outsiders for no reason, even if you help Asgard, you will not use such valuable weapons and materials to thank you, you better prepare in advance." β
β¦β¦
At the end of Nidavel's trip, Lu Xiao said goodbye to Thor, who had accompanied him all the way, and entrusted Heimdall to send him back to the outskirts of Kathmandu by the Rainbow Bridge.
Using the portal to open the passage of Kama Taj, Lu Xiao finally returned to this secluded mystical shrine.
Gu Yi didn't pay attention to Lu Xiao's newly acquired weapon, and readily agreed to Lu Xiao's request to learn Rune Rune.
Rune Runes are a group of letters used in ancient times in the Nordic region, and are rumored to be the language handed down from Asgard to the time when they fought the Frost Giants who invaded Earth.
For the Norse people of the time, the rune was just a written word that facilitated written communication.
But in fact, the runes of Rune contain mysterious powers, and the Queen of God Frigga is the master of Rune's spells, and she also taught Loki this magical spell language.
Due to his personality and habits, most of the rune runes that Loki majored in were related to illusions.
The Uru knife he usually uses can enhance the effects of using rune spells, and since he was a child, Loki has often used various illusions to trick Thor around.
Of course, Rune Rune is not only manifested in illusion, it is an all-encompassing and complete system of spells, and it is difficult to study it thoroughly in the lifetime of a human being.
The advantage of the Rune Rune is that it is easy to cast, and the person who uses it can engrave the Rune letter on any material, and depending on the material, the effect of the spell will also change.
The 24 Primordial Rune Runes combine with a variety of materials in nature to produce a kaleidoscopic array of magical effects.
In the history of writing of the Norse people, the rune of rune has changed many times, and it is difficult to see the shadow of the original rune in modern times.
Of course, this problem did not exist in the spell books kept by the Ancient One, and the 24 primordial runes were completely recorded, even including the effects of each rune when combined with multiple materials.
There are also some notes left in the book that I don't know who left when studying, and these reading notes provide a lot of help to Lu Xiao, who is new to Luen.
"α» (pronounced hagalaz)"
Lu Xiao poured magic power into his fingertips, drawing the shape of Lu En α» in mid-air.
α» runes represent hail, limit, delay, and termination, and when combined with the air medium, the α» runes quickly transform into a small area of wind and snow, bringing a burst of cold air to the heated Kama Taj interior.
βα³οΌkenazοΌβ
After the low-temperature wind and snow ended, Lu Xiao drew the rune α³ again, and the rune quickly turned into a bright flame, burning in mid-air.
"It's interesting."
Lu Xiao, who got the new toy, tested 24 kinds of runes one by one, some succeeding and some failing.
The failed runes were not due to Lu Xiao's drawing technique, but rather the inability to activate them simply by using air as a medium.
After initially learning the runes of Rune, Lu Xiao popped out two Hidden Blades and took a closer look.
According to Ai Cui, considering Lu Xiao's relatively weak strength now, he deliberately sealed the runes of Luen engraved on the Hidden Blade, and these seals will be unsealed one after another according to Lu Xiao's strength growth.
Only one rune, αͺ (ansuz), can now be seen on the left Hidden Blade, which, when combined with Uru metal, creates a highly poisonous effect.
Lu Xiao used the small animals caught in the mountains for experiments, and he could almost reach the level of sealing his throat with sword blood.
The Hidden Blade in the right hand also has only one rune on it for the time being, α§ (thurisaz), which has been tested to be effective for piercing defense.
To put it simply, Lu Xiao's right Hidden Blade can easily pierce through a variety of defensive means, including sturdy armor, magic barriers, and energy shields, and as long as the defensive strength does not exceed the magic power that Lu Xiao has infused into the Hidden Blade, nothing can block his attacks.
As the best blacksmith in the universe, Etrei carved three runes of runes into each of Lu Xiao's two Hidden Blades.
The effect of Rune 1+1 is definitely not only 2, the power that 1+1+1 can produce is immeasurable, and it is said that even Odin's Eternal Spear Gangenir has only 5 Rune Runes engraved on it.
If the power of the Eternal Spear is fully realized, nothing in the universe will be able to stop Gungnir's attack except for the Infinity Stones.
According to Atri, the battle between Thanos and Odin was ultimately defeated by Odin's Gangenir.
"Rune runes are vast and profound, and it seems that it will take a lot of time to study the combinations of various runes and materials, but ...... First of all, let's understand the effect of each rune when used individually. β
