Sudin looked at his friend Ghosn in surprise.

Ghosn nodded affirmatively. Su Ding has always been steady, and he will be quite steady and calm in many things, and it is not easy to see him surprised. In years, at least, Ghosn had rarely seen Sudin look so startled as he did now. He also understood why Sudin was surprised, thinking that when he saw Prince Solan in the barrier fortress in the north, leading people out of the chaos monster horde, he was even more surprised than Ghosn!

That scene is still replayed tenaciously over and over again in Sudin's mind, and I am deeply impressed when I think of it.

Sure enough, as Ghosn said, soon a court visitor passed the king's summons order to Sudin, and Sudin, who had been prepared under Ghosn's reminder, immediately handed over the training affairs that had been arranged to his deputy and went to the palace with the court guests.

When Sudin was ushered into a study somewhere in the palace, he realized that he was not only summoned, but also several prominent court mages, as well as Prince Solan standing beside King Angelo.

Several court mages did not notice Sudin, but whispered something back and forth around several steel objects, and King Angelo and Prince Solan watched this scene calmly, and did not say anything to interrupt them. Seeing this scene, Su Ding kept his silence very clearly, and after saluting King Angelo and Prince Solan who were sweeping his eyes, seeing that the two did not mean to summon him forward, he took the initiative to move to a corner of the study and stayed quietly.

“……”

"Incredible! This kind of rune is simply unheard of! I have never seen them in any ancient texts. But I could feel that they weren't any graffiti, they contained a lot of power. Comparable to the Divine Crest of the Order Sect! A mage spoke in amazement. The old mage next to him immediately took over.

"Yes, each rune contains extremely powerful power, with my mental power, it is difficult to read and understand it, and even just trying to analyze so many runes, my head has a feeling of swelling and pain! It's like a mental overdose! Incredible! I've never encountered anything like this except when I'm reading a lot of god patterns. ”

"I'm already overwhelmed just by reading and parsing a rune. Each of these runes seems to represent a law and a power that is so encompassing that it is torture to read without understanding their meaning! The more I tried to read them, the more I felt the torture. I feel like my mental energy may dry up in the next moment, but no matter what, I can't stop! I want to read them! Understand them! Even if it's death.

They simply represent the truth of the world! In front of them, they are either infatuated or crazy. Another court mage, dressed in red robes and with a gray beard, muttered to himself in a whispering tone as he carefully touched the runes engraved on the puppet with his hand.

The seven court mages on the field had almost forgotten everything, only remembering the rune inscriptions that had fascinated them in front of them, or talking to themselves, or exchanging ideas in full swing. Su Ding, who was listening to it, was a little confused, of course, if he didn't understand, he couldn't understand it, but Su Ding still felt respect for these old mages who seemed to fall down as soon as the wind blew.

With this world's evolved power system, mage is a near-perfect profession that can be used in combat near and far, and is well-read, a combination of combatant and scientific researcher. Even when Su Ding's strength was at its peak, he didn't dare to underestimate these old mages, even if it was a close battle, he was probably the one who was taught to be a man.

……

"All right, everyone! Let's put aside the study of these runes for the time being. Let's talk about these puppets, is it really that magical? Can we help the Kingdom of Angela survive this tide of chaos? Finally, after it was already dark outside, King Angelo couldn't help but shake the spirits of the mages, and woke up the mages who were intoxicated with the study of runes.

If you don't wake up, you can't do it, two of them are in a state that has obviously reached the limit, their bodies are shaky, and the magic fluctuations around them are beginning to be chaotic, obviously tending to get out of control, and if they continue, these two will probably fall completely and enter a long period of recuperation. The other five mages were a little better, but not much better, and there was a sense of tiredness on their faces that could not be concealed.

These are the last hole cards of the Angelo Kingdom, and King Angelo will certainly not let them have an accident, especially in the current bad situation where the tide of chaos is approaching. Now he has a lot of things to deal with every day, and if it weren't for the fact that the news brought back by Solan's return is too significant, the old king probably wouldn't have left all the urgent matters to be solved, and deliberately took a day to wait patiently for the results of the mages' research in the study.

Interrupted from the rune world, several mages were dissatisfied at first, followed by the old king's slightly eager inquiry. Several disgruntled mages immediately sobered up when they heard this. Yes, the biggest threat right now is the chaotic tides that move around this world and continents, coming and going like climate change.

The fog outside the borders has begun to envelop the Kingdom of Angela, and there have been recent sightings of powerful chaos creations such as the Shadow Lord appearing outside the border barrier. This terrifying monster that only exists and is active in the depths of the chaotic power has appeared outside the borders of the Angelo Kingdom, and according to the previous understanding of the Chaos Tide, this means that the arrival of the Chaos Tide is already urgent.

The Tides of Chaos are active fog areas, carrying many Chaos monsters along the way, wandering around the world like a hurricane, the forests along the way become rotten, the herds of beasts turn into monsters, the land is polluted, and the spirit of these monsters being devoured and polluted will be manifested by the power of chaos into various distorted shadow creations.

"These puppets are very ingenious, but these puppets alone can't fight those chaos monsters." An old mage soothed his aching spirit and reluctantly said.

"So the Taling is deceiving us?" The old king's face turned ugly for a moment.

"No, no, no, Your Majesty misunderstood. With these puppets alone, it is difficult for them to play any role under the influence of high-intensity chaotic forces. But that's without these runes. Although I can't understand the meaning of these runes, I can feel that there are similar patterns of order on them, which can shield and fight against the power of chaos.

The record of the return of His Highness Solan already proves this. The old mage waved his hand and corrected.

Only then did the old king's face return to normal. Of course, he wants his child Solan to say the truth, and he is willing to believe his child, but prior research, corroboration and evaluation are also necessary for a king.

"Then without further ado, Su Dingqing?" The old king looked at Sudin, who had been standing in the corner for almost a whole day, "Tomorrow, you will take the recruits you are training and the veterans under your command who have had to be discharged due to various injuries, and follow Solan and Ghosn to the north." Arrived at everything to listen to Solan. ”

"Yes." Sudin nodded.

"I'll prepare a copy of the royal family's treasured knowledge books, and you can bring them to that Taling. Even if we put aside the hope brought by the other party, just a rune knowledge comparable to the divine pattern is enough for our Angela Kingdom to give everything we have and meet all the requirements of the other party. The knowledge and classics that those nobles treasured in their homes will be given to each other after I collect them. The old king turned to his child Solan again, and his calm tone contained a rain of blade blood.

Solan nodded of course. Knowledge is very important, and it is inevitable that there will be some nobles who are not interested, but neither the old king nor Solan cares.

"Lun Enqing, this time, please bring someone to contact the other party and receive the knowledge inheritance of the other party's runes. I will mobilize men in the royal capital and prepare for you everything that Solan tells me what I need, we don't have much time left. The old king looked at an old mage one last time and gave one last order.
