The old mage was still refining potions with his head down, and listened to Benjamin's words, but he didn't even bother to raise his head, and said, "Don't bother me with the story of bluffing children." ”

“......”

Benjamin was speechless for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "What is the story of bluffing children, do you know what the abyss trial is?"

"Of course I do. The old mage replied impatiently, "The legendary elemental curse, the soul rejected by this world...... You wouldn't have heard that it could make people immune to magic and magic, so you were going to raise a group of people in this way, right? ”

"Why?"

When the old mage heard this, he put down the test tube in his hand, showed a speechless expression, and said, "Because no one can survive that so-called trial. To be reasonable, first being pierced through the heart by the teeth of the demonic beast, and then drinking the deadly poison, this is equivalent to cutting off your head, and then telling you that you now have special functions, is it possible?"

“...... Possible. ”

Hearing this, the old mage's expression could be called angry. He probably thought that Benjamin was just playing tricks on him, and he slapped the table in anger, startling the students passing by.

"I've studied it all my life, and of course I know it's just a rumor!" he glared at Benjamin and said fiercely, "what about you? Why do you say it might?"

Benjamin looked at the old mage with some surprise, scratched his head, and said, "Because...... I've seen a success story?"

“......”

The old mage was speechless for a moment, stuck there, like a sculpture. He may have been shocked by this, or he may have thought that Benjamin was still lying to him, so he lost his mind.

The scene was slightly awkward, Benjamin coughed dryly, and then said, "If you don't believe me, when he comes back from the Kingdom of Hori, I'll bring him over to show you." ”

"You mean it. The old mage came back to his senses with a look of disbelief.

Benjamin nodded expressionlessly.

"Okay, you must bring that person here!" the old mage suddenly became excited, "If there is a guy who has passed the abyss trial, his blood will become extremely important to my research. Dead or alive, bring him here!"

"Good, good ......"

With that, Benjamin turned and left the pharmacy.

He was a little surprised.

Before he came, he never thought that the old mage's reaction would be so great, and that it would be so incredible to pass the Abyss Trial? No wonder Benjamin hadn't seen anyone else who was immune to magic except for Miles alone.

Moreover, a physique like Miles should be difficult to replicate.

Benjamin felt glad that this was the world and belonged to the mage. But at the same time, there was no way to replicate a group of demon immunity warriors to bulldoze the church, and he also had a little regret in his heart.

A few days later, the holidays ended, and the college officially ushered in the opening day. Benjamin doesn't really care much about the specific affairs of the house, but when it comes to occasions like the opening ceremony, he still has to come out and speak as a leader.

And this opening ceremony, there were finally no accidents. In the auditorium, a speech of encouragement was given to the outstanding students of the last semester, and Benjamin's task was successfully completed. The students were also familiar with the road, and after the ceremony, they rushed to class, and the busy college life began.

"Dean Benjamin, we haven't made any new progress in the study of runes yet. But...... Here's something we just made out that you can take a look at. ”

After the opening ceremony, Benjamin inspected the building assigned to the Rune Research Team. An elderly mage also walked over and introduced him along the way. They finally came to a cage, and the old mage pointed to the cage.

Benjamin also looked inside the cage.

That's a ...... Pigs: Except for its silhouette, the creature bears no resemblance to a normal pig. The red fur exudes a temperature like fire, and if you look closely, you can even see the hidden spikes in the hair, sometimes erect and sometimes shrink.

Benjamin couldn't help but frown.

Aren't they studying runes here? Why are these people doing biological experiments again?

The creature in front of him was somewhat similar to the Warcraft, but after fighting the Warcraft so many times, Benjamin could be sure that the cage was not a Warcraft in the form of a pig, but ...... Some other stuff.

"I've been thinking about using runes on people, but it's too dangerous. There was a mage who had already lost his life after secretly trying. Therefore, we started experimenting with animals. And this is the result of our current experiment. ”

"We carved the fire elemental rune sentence on the leaves of the rock grass and fed it every day in a certain amount. After about ten days, it became like this. This phenomenon is still universal, and we have experimented with many pigs, and about three-quarters of them will produce such variations. We speculate that it may have been the fire elemental that combined with its body, creating some kind of mutation similar to that of Warcraft. However, it may be because of the runes, their temperament is basically unaffected. ”

Benjamin heard this and nodded.

These mages are really whimsical when they study runes.

Still, think about it. It's a completely blank field, and no one knows where it's supposed to go. Therefore, these people can only keep trying to move from all angles, some try to connect the runes together to form sentences or even formations, and some try to attach the runes to various things.

At the beginning, it was like this, only when all the forks in the road were completed could we find the correct answer in the end.

"Does this thing have any special abilities, and how does its combat power compare to that of Warcraft?" asked Benjamin.

The discovery that runes can trigger mutations in living beings is surprising. But for him at this moment, the benefits that this mutation can bring to them are more important.

The old mage replied: "Its combat effectiveness is very poor, and its only ability is that it will self-destruct after sensing elemental fluctuations, producing a power equivalent to that of an intermediate magic, so the cages used to hold it are made of forbidden magic metal." ”

Hearing this, Benjamin raised his eyebrows and asked, "How many of you have studied animals with special functions like this?"

"Actually, it's a lot, but this is the only one that is slightly useful. The old mage said helplessly, "The previous results were similar to rats that can simulate human laughter, and cats that freeze themselves into ice in water...... The role it can make is very small. ”

"Okay. ”

Benjamin was slightly disappointed. This research obviously doesn't want to be as huge as the rune formation, but it'...... He is not good at asking too much, this kind of research, it is normal that it does not succeed for more than ten years, and it is good to have results.

At least...... They invented a pig that blew itself up?

"Have you been inspired on how to apply runes to people?" he asked, thinking about it.

The old mage nodded and said, "That...... Although I haven't reported it to you, another mage and I have started taking rune-engraved Leaf of Life every day. It's been two days, and at the moment we're still healthy, and we don't know if anything will happen next. ”

“......”

Benjamin was speechless for a moment.

This guts...... It's too big, isn't it?
