Chapter 5: The Traces of the Circle of the Dead

"Where am I?" Lin Yan felt as if he had fallen into a shallow river, and it was pitch black all around him, only the water in this river glowed a cool blue. You can't see it upstream, you can't see it downstream. But the light emitted illuminates the surroundings.

I remember condensing my mana and having a headache...... Subsequently?

Lin Yan looked around, everything that had happened recently was happening too fast, and even the fresh environment around him had become dull.

"Hello, my master?" A large stream of blue water in front of Lin Yan's eyes began to condense, and made a sound like a synthesized sound, and then turned into a human form. A human form made of only water.

Lin Yan took two steps back a little frightened: "Who are you, where is this?"

"This is your heart space, and I'm the manager here...... Maybe it turns out that way, and we can communicate better. The water changed shape in an instant, and finally turned into a slightly chubby body and a face that Lin Yan was all too familiar with. The uniform issued by the church swayed in front of Lin Yan's eyes, and the young man in front of him showed a smile with the same symbol.

"Long Ke, aren't you going to the royal capital?"

"I'm not Long Ke, I'm the manager here, and I can change my form at any time. I saw that "Long Ke" turned around, and then transformed into the form of a tree dragon and stood in front of Lin Yan, "If you want to understand better, you can take the 'Trace of the Dark Circle' behind you as me." ”

"Stigmata, you're possessed of me, Stigmata?"

"Almost, you can call me Lu. This is the name I used to have among the gods. Lu smiled faintly, and then changed back to Long Ke's appearance, "I have to say that you are really lucky, it was because of the strong emotional fluctuations that inspired me." Otherwise, you might be some cold corpse by now. ”

Lin Yan was a little incredulous, he pinched himself, and after feeling the pain, he said, "So, you are a god?"

"Yes to some extent, but I can't tell you exactly why. The water under his feet gradually decreased, "Time is running out." You're just trying to condense your magic through the "Traces of the Circle", and that's how you can barely stretch out this space. Soon, however, this space will be avoided again. So I'm going to tell you everything I need to tell you. ”

Lu coughed lightly: "The method of using your magic is different from that of the scars of your time, you only need to sort the runes in your mind and urge them to release them where you want to release them, or release them on yourself." There is no need to construct complex mana, these "traces of the Circle" will automatically help you construct them. If you want to unleash your magic directly, you only need to rely on instinct to release it, and you don't need to mobilize it like modern scarlets. ”

"And how much magic can I wield?"

"In the Scarred Stage, you only have 1 Ava in the fourth-order magic, that is, all the magic consumption within the four runes, and you don't need extra rune chanting. Because the "Trace of the Circle of the Circle" is the predecessor of the "Trace of Infinity", it relies on the law of circulation of magic to release spells. The downside, of course, is that you can't unleash any magic beyond the fourth-order runes, not even with the help of magic items. I think...... You now have about 1,000 avas in your body, and these avas will automatically replenish after you sleep. You don't need to be cohesive naturally. "Time passed little by little, and with it, the water became smaller, and the rumbling sound began to sound around it.

Lin Yan was a little stunned and a little excited, but he didn't procrastinate after noticing that there was not enough time, but instead asked, "In that case, why can I only change the Seven Great Runes, and how can I advance to become a Trace Master?" ”

"Changing a rune requires you to have a complete understanding of the rune. The Seven Elemental Base Runes are your instincts, your innate understanding. But for the rest of the runes, the only thing you can do is to study their essence to understand their meaning. The easiest way to do this is to try to carve the "Traces of the Circle" repeatedly, which can be painful, but it is the simplest and most brutal. As for how to advance to the Trace Master...... We all know that the modern Scarcer's promotion to Scar Master does not require rune chanting and directly releases all rune magic below the fourth order, but you are different, you don't need to chant anymore. The way you advance is by challenging your emotional swings. ”

"Mood swings?"

"Just like you did yesterday against the Nightblade Panther, a frantic challenge to life and death will resonate with the Scars of the Stygian. When you advance to the Scar Master, I think you'll be able to unleash 6 combination rune magic. The flow of water stopped abruptly, and Lu waved his hand: "The next time you see me, it means that you have been promoted to the Trace Master." ”

Lin Yan moved his mouth, but he didn't make any sound, he felt the riverbed below him crack open and swallow him.

The voice of the tree dragon gradually came from Lin Yan's ears: "Wake up, don't sleep, pig head." Then came the light, and a yellow-haired teenager slapped his face.

"Who am I...... Where am I ......" Lin Yan rubbed his eyes and stood up from the side of the carriage, the sun hanging high above his head, shining on the empty camp.

"I really convinced you, I actually condensed my magic power until I fell asleep, and I slept until noon. He got into the carriage and said, "Get on the carriage! Time is running out." ”

Lin Yan was much better this time than when he got into the carriage yesterday, and he slipped on it.

"We'll probably be able to reach the port late this night," he looked at the map, and then looked at Lin Yan, "Yu Cheng, how did you get to the results of your magic condensation yesterday?"

After the magic sorting...... If it's not a dream.

Lin Yan ignored the tree dragon's words, and instead used his spiritual power to carve a dark rune in his holy stigma into a thunderbolt rune. As soon as his spirit moved, a wave of thunder and lightning energy suddenly emerged from his fingers, and then poked at the tree dragon.

"Wow, do you already know how to do this, just a sleep...... Wait, aren't you also the stigma of the Twin Thunder Elemental Runes? Seeing that you didn't have any runes to chant, you released them. With a flash of instinct, the tree dragon seemed to react much faster than Lin Yan.

"Uh...... I don't know why it was released. Lin Yan then remembered that when the tree dragon released this magic yesterday, he did not perform the rumored rune chanting.

The tree dragon looked at Lin Yan with an illiterate face: "If you want to instantly generate a magic at the Scar stage, first of all, this magic element must be all the runes on your stigma, and secondly, you need to have double the runes to instantly generate the magic of a single rune. For example, if you have two flame runes engraved on your stigma, you can instantly cast a fire rune spell without having to chant the rune. If you have four Fire Runes on your stigma, you can instantly cast two Fire Runes without the need for Rune Chanting. You're afraid you have at least two thunder runes...... It's just weird, I can't feel any magic fluctuations in you. According to common sense, even if it is instantaneous magic, there will be magic fluctuations at the moment when the magic power is constructed. ”

Lin Yan scratched his head: "Is there still this kind of exquisiteness? I should have two thunder element stigmata, hahaha...... "So far, I can only pretend to be stupid, I actually forgot that there is a rune chanting this stubble, I made a mistake, and I have to release a first-order pure elemental spell." In case of a fourth-order spell in an instant, I am afraid that I will be directly caught and studied.

"Since you don't want to say anything, then I won't pursue it. Generally speaking, it is difficult to have a pair of elements, most of the marks are triangles and squares, and most of them are different compositions. The tree dragon shook his whip and fell into thought.

Lin Yan felt that the scene was a little embarrassing, so he asked, "Since both runes are required to be chanted, what is the difference between the first-order and the ninth-order tracers?"

"The difference between a first-order scar and a ninth-order scar is in the magic power, as well as the strength of the magic. For example, the standard first-order scars should have 100 Ava, and the ninth-order ones should have 2,500. By the way, you don't know the total amount of mana, you need to go to the Stigmata Society in the big city to use magic items to measure. The tree dragon began to explain to Lin Yan, a hillbilly: "Magic strength is to purify magic power when condensing magic power, the purer the magic power, the higher the magic strength, and the higher the rank is relatively speaking." But when testing your rank, most of them are based on the total amount of mana you have. ”

This said that Lin Yan felt confused, as if he was curious about the baby, and asked, "Why don't you use magic strength to determine the division of ranks?"

"Are you a pig, any magic can be built with magic, but if the elements of that magic are the same as the runes on your stigma, then the strength will naturally be greater. In order to prevent rune resonance from causing calculation errors, the scientists of the royal capital only put the strength in the concept, but not the strength in the test. ”

"There's still a lot of knowledge here, ha......" Lin Yan suddenly felt that it was not bad to be an ordinary person, but he still got rid of this idea, how to find Long Ke if he was not strong!

gradually got used to the bumps on the carriage, and the time in the carriage also ended in Lin Yan's novice problem. After crossing the next hill, Lin Yun saw a city made up of many buildings, like the "church-tall buildings" of the original townβ€”β€”β€”β€” Port Essadir

Port Al Sadir has all the facilities you need, even the extremely fancy places like auctions and snack streets. Lin Yan followed Shulong to a dilapidated hotel in an alley. There, Shulong indicates that he needs to deliver the goods, while Lin Yan can go to his other two friends in the local mercenary group.
