"Have you broken through the first level of your energy cultivation?" Zeng Shidao had an extremely shocked expression on his face.

"Yes. It's the night I was locked in the stake of life and death, by chance, right? I was in a semi-comatose state at the time, and I don't know exactly what happened. Jin Ke couldn't explain more to Zeng Shidao.

"Great! Xiao Ke, you are really a blessing in disguise! Master has been cultivating hard for decades and has not been able to break through, but I didn't expect you to break through in one night! This shows that you are a genius when it comes to energy cultivation! The future achievements will be far above Master! Zeng Shidao was very happy.

"It seems that Master said that after the energy cultivation is suddenly at the first level, you can directly charge the rune pen to carve runes?" Jin Ke hurriedly changed the subject, lest Zeng Shidao ask him why it took so long to tell him this good news.

"Yes, the principle of the rune carving equipment is to convert the energy in the energy core into the energy that can be used by the rune pen, since you have broken through the first level of energy cultivation, then your body has become a rune carving equipment, I can directly teach you the skills of rune carving."

Zeng Shidao said and found the rune pen and gave it to Jin Ke, and also took out the instructions for using the rune pen and studied it carefully...... After all, Zeng Shi said that he did not use his body to energize the rune pen, so he could only read the manual in this regard.

Zeng Shidao and Jin Ke studied the manual together, and finally Jin Ke himself comprehended the method of supplying energy to the rune pen in his body, and charged the energy points in his body to the rune pen in his hand like charging.

Jin Ke's current upper limit of energy point storage in his body is 600 points, after upgrading the 'Killing Elixir' and 'Arbitration of Good and Evil', he still has more than 400 energy points in his body for backup, the upper limit of the energy storage of this 2B-level rune pen is 500 points, Jin Ke charged 200 energy points to the rune pen, and the energy points in his body are only more than 200.

can only be charged so much, and if it is all charged, Jin Ke will have no energy points available when he releases his skills.

"By the way, since you are in the realm of the first level of energy cultivation, you should be able to obtain energy directly from the energy core." Zeng Shidao saw that Jin Ke had stopped charging the rune pen in his hand, as if he had thought of something, and hurriedly ran to the workshop where the rune equipment was located.

There is a secret safe in the workshop, which stores three 1000-point power cores. These energy cores were all received by Zeng Shidao from the logistics management office of the base according to the workload, and were used to drive the rune carving equipment. Previously, these energy cores were installed in the rune carving equipment, but now they can be used directly by Jin Ke.

"You hold it in your hand and let your body form an energy circuit between it, and you can slowly absorb energy from this energy core." Zeng Shidao explained to Jin Ke how to use the energy core.

Jin Ke took the energy core and tried it, and soon an energy circuit was formed between his body and the energy core, and then he drew energy from the energy core at a rate of 2 points per second, and filled his own energy in three minutes.

I knew that I could play like this, and I should have sucked that energy core when I was in the recruit training center...... But then again, it's not a loss to exchange for training coins.

"How much did you suck?" Zeng Shidao asked Jin Ke.

"More than three hundred."

"So fast?" Zeng Shidao's expression of surprise was very surprised.

"Soon?" Jin Ke has no experience in this area.

"I've tried to draw energy from the energy core before, and it can only charge 5 to 10 points per minute, and you can absorb more than 300 points in three minutes! The realm of the first layer of energy cultivation is really not the same as ordinary people! Zeng Shidao had a very emotional expression.

"Oh......"

"Alright, now I can teach you rune carving techniques." Zeng Shidao picked up the rune pen, found a discarded metal plate, and carefully taught it to Jin Ke.

Rune carving...... It sounds a bit like writing brush words, but it is more demanding than writing brush words, and the force, length, and thickness of each stroke are particularly particular, under normal circumstances, a person who is familiar with a new rune will take at least a few hours to form the correct muscle memory, and then he can practice writing the next rune.

After the first seemingly simple rune was written several times and all failed, Jin Ke finally understood why people like Yao Chengzhou were unwilling to cultivate rune masters.

It's so hard! I feel like it's clearly written correctly, and it's not bad at all, but it's a failure!

Failure also consumes energy points!

The energy core is the universal currency of the game world, although the base recycles the energy core played by the employees in a ratio of ten to one, but in fact, the real value of a little energy in the energy core can reach more than 20 contribution points of the base!

That is, a little energy is worth the value of twenty eggs!

Writing a rune consumes at least one energy point, and failure consumes just as many energy points, and if you fail once, you'll have a basket of twenty eggs 'Bang!' The ground shattered to the ground with a thud, leaving only the sorrow of the loser with eggs.

Ordinary people want to awaken their rune carving skills and become a trainee rune master, unless they are rich or gather the resources of an entire base or shelter to provide for them, there are not so many energy cores that can be wasted like this.

And a mage like Yao Chengzhou should not lack energy points, but not everyone has the patience to practice writing these runes one by one, and they can't make even the slightest mistake, or even not at all.

This kind of practice can be described as self-masochistic.

Once continuous writing fails, one can easily get irritated, irritated, and then give up.

At the beginning, Zeng Shidao was able to embark on this road, which may have something to do with his stubborn and more homely personality, but he didn't go far, and he was still a trainee rune master for so many years.

A person's life is very limited, and it is impossible to have so much time to learn and write so many runes skillfully, unless someone has an extraordinary talent for calligraphy, or...... Hanging like Jin Ke.

"Don't rush, take your time, it's not that easy." Seeing that Jin Ke had failed five times in a row, Zeng Shidao comforted him a few words, and he was also very distressed about the five energy points wasted, after all, they were all quotas given by the base, and after wasting them, he could only use the contribution points in his account to make up for it.

This is also the reason why Zeng Shidao asked Jin Ke to learn rune carving, and all the contribution points earned by his work belonged to Zeng Shidao...... With such an investment in the early stage, if he can't recover some contribution points after the apprentice is released, he will drink the northwest wind in the future?

Soon, a scene that surprised Zeng Shidao extremely much happened.
