Highly recommended:

The affairs of the dark department of the academy are being planned, and the plan to liberate the Mage Guild is also being prepared...... During this time, Benjamin remained in the Academy of Magic, except for the occasional teaching of disguise techniques to those people, which was to meditate.

He could feel that his strength had reached a level that most mages could not match, and perhaps meditation was not so important to him. But...... There are people outside, and he doesn't know how many difficulties he will have to face in order to truly overthrow the church.

Therefore, he cannot afford to let up.

Although meditation cannot extend the duration of "Water Arrival", it can increase his water elemental reserves and mental power. Moreover, from quantitative change to qualitative change, who knows if he continues to meditate, will there be another drastic change in the consciousness space like before?

Thinking so, Benjamin looked at the looming rune star map above, and his heart was full of anticipation.

The space of consciousness is full of infinite possibilities.

After meditating for more than half a month, he thought it would be someone from the Fur family who came to the academy and called him out of his state of retreat. But what he didn't expect was that it was the older mage who studied runes in the academy who called him out.

"Dean Benjamin, I've made some new discoveries. ”

Outside the door of the dean's room, Benjamin listened to the other party's slightly excited tone, and couldn't help but look forward to it.

Is it a rune......

There are only four runes he can use now, and the control is very crude, so there is obviously a lot of room for improvement. But after all, he was entangled in everything, and he didn't have so much mind to specialize in research, so he had to use the four runes at the moment first.

However, he was clearly not the only one in the academy who was interested in runes. Like the old mage in front of him, the magic has entered a bottleneck, and he can only seek a breakthrough from the runes. Therefore, his passion for runes is clearly higher than that of Benjamin.

During this time, he had stayed in the academy, and even pulled a few powerful old mages from outside to join their research team. When Benjamin found out, he also supported their research and invested a lot of money in it.

He just didn't expect that the money invested would pay off so quickly?

"What did you find, do you have any new runes?" asked Benjamin immediately.

"Not really. The old mage shook his head and said, "Runes can only be found from various ruins at present, and with our current research, it is difficult to deduce new runes on our own. ”

Benjamin frowned: "And what did you find?"

The old mage replied, "We have found that these runes seem to be connected into sentences, which do not serve the same purpose as individual runes. ”

...... Oh?

Benjamin's heart moved.

And this kind of operation?

When he practiced those four runes before, it was not that he hadn't tried several runes together, but the results he got were not satisfactory, and at the same time, there was only one rune that played a role. For example, he can't attack with a Destruction Rune while using an Affinity Rune to speed up the gathering of water elementals.

At that time, he thought that the law of runes was like this, but now that he heard the other party say this, could there be a way to make several runes work at the same time?

"How do you connect them?" he asked.

"For runes to be connected into sentences, they must conform to their grammatical rules. I only heard the old mage say slowly, "In order to facilitate research, we will now divide the runes into two categories, one is the origin rune, that is, the six runes that represent the elements of each system, and the other is the action rune, such as the instructions of destruction and defense. In order for runes to be connected into sentences, they must first have both origin runes and action runes. ”

Benjamin heard this, nodded, and didn't say anything.

From the old mage's point of view, he seemed to be in a daze, but in fact, Benjamin had already entered the space of consciousness and began his experiments.

According to this classification, the four runes used by Benjamin are all action runes. As for the origin runes, there were actually three of them in the consciousness space before, and now they have merged into a new one, and Benjamin doesn't know if there will be any impact on this.

But...... He still couldn't wait to start trying.

Stretching out his right hand, Benjamin condensed the water element on his fingertips and drew it in the void. He first drew the triangular character representing "water", and then immediately followed by the character representing "destruction".

At the end of the day, the two characters joined together, like a single word, and lit up at the same time.

Benjamin was shocked.

With the accumulation of the water element, the elemental turbulence like before gradually formed. Dense ice blades, water bombs...... They raged in the empty darkness, and the whole scene seemed to be no different from before.

Benjamin, however, had a different feeling in his mind.

He...... It seems to be connected to this elemental turbulence.

Realizing this, Benjamin immediately used his mental power to try to control the out-of-control turbulence in front of him. Suddenly, the elemental turbulence suddenly became concentrated, no longer expanding spontaneously without limit, nor throwing ice blades everywhere outside.

Benjamin was pleasantly surprised, and even the system that was hiding far away on the side was relieved at the moment and cautiously jumped back.

"You've finally been able to get this thing under control. It couldn't help but complain, "How many times have I told you, the consciousness space is such a precious place, you don't want to throw something uncontrollable here all day long, it's very dangerous." ”

As soon as it finished speaking, there was a whoosh, and an ice blade flew past its yellow-orange-orange cheek.

“！”

The system was a shudder.

Seeing this, Benjamin scratched his head innocently and said, "I'm sorry...... This kind of control seems to be relatively limited, and there is no way to use it particularly handy. ”

“......”

I don't know if I was scared or angry, the system didn't even say anything, turned around and slipped away, and ran away again.

Benjamin shook his head helplessly.

He really didn't mean to. After connecting the runes into short sentences, although he was able to use his mental power to control this elemental turbulence, this control was indeed quite limited.

He can turn all the magic that comes out of the turbulence into an ice blade, and he can also control the turbulence to move slowly, but ...... This is a very staggering consumption of mental power, and if you are not careful, you may also be in a state of loss of control like just now.

There's really no way to do it as freely as he did with his previous water polo skills.

Still, Benjamin felt good. Runes are a powerful weapon, and even if they are controlled slightly, the effect will increase exponentially. Not to mention, this method of connecting runes into sentences was only beginning to be researched.

Maybe...... There will be more progress in the future.

Benjamin's heart was full of anticipation.
