"This is the case...... I don't know. ”

Suddenly, Benjamin got angry and complained with his mind: "Then why are you pretending to be a big guy? Acting like you know everything, but if you ask a few more questions, you can't answer immediately." ”

"No, you don't understand. "The amount of information I receive through this body is terrifying, and most of it cannot be converted through words. Elemental, magical, and the like are just the most one-sided perception of this world by human beings. ”

“......”

Benjamin didn't know what to say, but he could clearly feel that the system was pretending to be in the mood and had no intention of answering the question properly.

Helpless.

Benjamin had quite a few doubts about its series of interpretations of the elemental plane. If this world is the source of magic, what about the unknown life that exists here? Moreover, according to the theory of the high-dimensional world and the low-dimensional world, can the unknown will living in this world be called a god?

Benjamin shuddered at the thought of it.

If this is the case, wouldn't those so-called "high-dimensional creatures" have been watching him for a long, long time, and maybe they have been provoked by him?

- He still remembers when the fourth Pope entered the elemental plane, and the will here used the elements to give him a "hello". However, after he came into contact with the runes of the pure blue world once, the runes sent him a message of "get out of the way".

So, he immediately asked the system:

"But...... The world doesn't seem to welcome me very much. If I do off them, will they do anything bad about it?"

"You're thinking too much. The system said in a disdainful tone, "Love, disgust, anger, attack...... These are just the ways you humans think. You feel that they are not welcome to you, that is just a shadow of the huge amount of information that you have misinterpreted, and do not try to use your mind to guess what they might do. ”

“...... They're not going to me, are they?"

The system was speechless for a moment, and said angrily: "This is simply playing the piano to the cow." ”

Benjamin smiled.

The esoteric and mysterious elemental plane was fascinating, but he was more concerned with practical issues. Besides, the system doesn't say that it is impossible for the human way of thinking to understand the world, so he will not force it.

He decided to ask some more practical questions.

"I want to know, what is the correct way to use runes?" he asked with his mind, "don't talk to me about those godly babbles, anyway, I can't understand the true form of runes in this world." I just want to know if there is any way to use them flexibly after they have been misinterpreted by the human way of thinking. ”

“...... Yes. ”

Benjamin suddenly came to his senses: "What is it?"

"The significance of runes to the elemental plane is very special. It can be a carrier of consciousness, it can also be a language of communication, and it also carries the laws of the plane...... "the system talks eloquently," but it can be used as a key to understanding it with the narrow thinking of human beings. ”

"Keys?"

"Yes, just like the rune in your consciousness space, it can help humanity communicate with the elemental plane and temporarily break the confinement of form. And from your point of view, it's the enhancement of magical abilities. ”

"Is there a more universal method?" said Benjamin at once, "Is it impossible for every mage to open up a space of consciousness to construct runes?" ”

"Then you can only resort to mental power. The system said, "In fact, the human beings in this world will mutate the power of spiritual power, probably because they are exposed to the radiation of the elemental plane. So, from a certain point of view, spiritual power is not an ability that originally belongs to human beings, like the normal world you were in before, there is no such thing as spiritual power. ”

Mental power......

After hearing so many words, Benjamin was still very confused.

There are many existing studies on mental power, but none of the theories can fit the systematic thinking. And, to put it mildly, how are they going to use their mental power to construct a rune?

Psychic power is incorporeal, and can only resonate with the elemental or other people's psychic power to complete some of the key steps of casting magic. Therefore, the existing magic system does not pay much attention to spiritual power, and elemental affinity is a more important indicator.

"You need a carrier to get a rune out. He said in his heart, "Like the people in the research team, they also draw runes on various materials in order to be effective. Spiritual power can't be this carrier. ”

The system casually said, "Oh, yes? That's your problem." ”

“......”

It's a pity that it's in the elemental plane now, otherwise, Benjamin would have stomped those funny ones under his feet and kicked them to make the system roll as far as he could.

It's just ......

He didn't bother to bother with the system. Anyway, no matter how reliable it suddenly looks, it will still be disappointing in the end. That being the case, he should not hold out any hope for it.

Returning his attention to the light mist around him, Benjamin tried to move himself again. Before, for the sake of safety, he made an affinity rune, but now, after experiencing rounds of cynicism from the system, he decided to directly put a destruction rune to see what would happen.

And yet, just as he was about to do so.

"Uh-oh...... Time's up. ”

With the system's awe-inspiring tone, Benjamin suddenly heard a buzzing sound, as if coming from his own soul. The whole world flashed white, and then, the scene in front of me was very different.

The colorful light and mist disappeared, and with it the feeling of turning into smoke and drifting freely, and everything became real. The bright sunlight fell on his face, and he couldn't recover for a while.

He's ...... Kicked out again?

"Dean Benjamin? Dean Benjamin? Are you ...... What's going on?"

Voices kept shouting at him, and eventually, he shuddered and looked back at him. This is the real world, in a laboratory of the Academy of Magic, and there seem to be quite a few people around, all of whom are looking at him dumbfounded.

At that moment, Benjamin was a little confused.

When he came to his senses, he realized that this was the laboratory of the rune research team. The old mages he had just met before were surrounding him at the moment, looking like they had seen ghosts.

All right...... How did you get here?

Before entering the consciousness space, he was obviously already lying on the bed, don't tell him that he is suffering from sleepwalking again this time.

"What's the matter? Why am I here?" he waved at the old mages and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that......? What did you do?"

Then, suddenly, he glanced at his feet.

Wait a minute......

It was then that he realized that his position did not seem to be simple. His feet were carved with all kinds of characters, staggered and arranged in a circle. The blood of the demonic beast flowed through the groove below, and it seemed that it was another rune formation that had never been seen before.

At the same time, some very low voices on the side also reached Benjamin's ears from afar:

“...... Why did you summon the dean?"
