The so-called rune mage is actually a special kind of spellcaster. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info they don't cast spells through spells or rituals, but make spells into runes in advance, and then use magic to activate the runes, and then they can cast the spells they want.

Compared with ordinary spellcasting, rune mages are more flexible and fast in casting, but they also need more keen skills and stronger physique - in order to carry the power of spells, the materials used to make runes are generally quite strong, "strong" and "heavy" are roughly twin brothers, and people who can carry a large number of runes, if not a tiger's back, must at least be a rare strongman.

Not to mention anything else, with a small body like Parin, give him ten or eight runes, he will almost be struggling, if he is given twenty or thirty runes, he may be able to crush him to death.

Therefore, rune mages are generally strong men, and because they need to cast spells, they also need to have strong magical power. There aren't many casters who have both, but in some races, it's quite common.

Let's say, the dwarves.

The dwarves were a race created by the earth elemental gods and the earth goddess, and they originally wanted to create a race that was both powerful and flexible, with a relatively intelligent mind and good magical qualifications, but when it came time to actually create them, they found that these advantages could not be combined at all—or rather, with the power of these two gods, they were not enough to create a race that combined these advantages.

In desperation, they retreated, and eventually created this race that was slightly shorter than humans, with unusually thick limbs, great strength, good magical qualifications, and a fairly flexible brain.

In general, the dwarves are a relatively powerful race. But they also have their own shortcomings, I don't know if it's because the creator is the god of the earth element, the dwarves have a more tenacious way of thinking, not because they are not smart, but because they admit death.

For example, if a dwarf goes to a restaurant for dinner, and he wants to eat "fish-flavored shredded pork", and then the food comes up, he will most likely get entangled with the waiter, "Where is the fish?" and he will be entangled for a long, long time. It is almost an impossible task to convince him to admit that "there is no fish in the fish-flavored shredded pork". He would only nod his head in approval if he actually made a fish or some fish soup and made a new dish - of course, he would never pay his debts, dwarves are creatures of the Order camp, and debt is in conflict with their values.

If this is only a minor shortcoming, then the other one is a bit bigger - the fertility of the dwarves is a little worse.

It is said that dwarves originally did not have this shortcoming, but after the fall of the earth elemental god, their fertility was like a high platform diving, and they fell from the "high-fertility race" to the "low-fertility race" at once, and it is said that the worst time was that for twenty years in a row, not even a single dwarf baby was born in the world.

Of course, this problem is very serious, and the earth goddess thought of a number of methods, and finally solved some of them slightly, so that the fertility of the dwarves has risen to the point that at least they will not be wiped out because of this. But for this, the dwarves also had to pay a huge price - although they still had good magical qualifications, their ability to control the subtleties of magic became so poor that it was difficult to produce good spellcasters.

The so-called poor will change and change, and the intelligence of the dwarves is not low, so they will naturally find a way. After thinking about it, the current dwarven god of runes finally came up with a solution, and the dwarf, who was only a master forger at the time, took a different path and engraved runes representing magic on a solid metal plate, and when it was time to cast a spell, he could activate magic by simply injecting magic into the runes.

This method of spell casting soon became popular among the dwarves, and was also introduced to other races, and even affected the elves, who were the main casters. Many of the various magic props that are now contain rune technology.

It's just that it's not that you can use runes to cast spells to be considered a rune mage, you have to be able to make your own runes to be considered a qualified rune mage.

What Sui Xiong is looking for is such a talent.

And the place he went to was not the kingdom of the dwarves in the Broken Cloud Mountains, but the kingdom of the dwarven gods.

It's not easy to talk to the dwarves. It's better to discuss it directly with the dwarven gods.

After all, he is also a god, and he is quite a figure among the gods, and if he visits in person, the dwarven gods will give some face......

Sui Xiong thought so, and after a while, he came to the kingdom of the dwarven gods.

The kingdom of the dwarven gods is called the "Eternal Mountain", and the general structure is roughly a very majestic mountain, then surrounded by low mountains, then hills, and then plains - there is no forest because the dwarves don't like the forest, and there is no ocean because the dwarves hate the ocean.

The dead dwarven believers dwell in the vast kingdom of God. Some of them lived in the plains, some in the hills, and many in the mountains. But only those who have made great contributions or outstanding achievements, and have been recognized by the dwarven gods, can live in the high mountain in the center.

Well, live in the mountains.

Whether it was the dwarven gods, or the best believers, they all lived in the mountains.

When Sui Xiong visited, the dwarven gods also received him in a hall in the middle of the mountain.

The dwarven gods were surprised and somewhat uneasy about his visit. The Void Mask has a reputation for being able to fight, be belligerent, have a strange personality, and do things unreasonably...... All in all, reputation isn't necessarily great.

In the eyes of the evil gods, this guy is a super demon who has killed hundreds of evil gods, and even the god of fear who is almost the leader of the alliance among the evil gods.

In the eyes of the good gods, this guy is a perverse person who uses necromancy at will, enslaves the necromancer to work for him, without any psychological pressure, and does not feel that such behavior is wrong in the slightest.

The dwarves are not in the evil camp, nor are they particularly strong in the good camp, so they can at least welcome Sui Xiong's visit without turning him away.

...... Of course, even if they weren't welcome, they wouldn't dare.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Sui Xiong explained his intention.

"I want to recruit some rune mages. "The pay is absolutely satisfying." ”

Dwarven gods, you look at me, I look at you, and finally the god of runes spoke, asking in wonder, "That's it?"

"Isn't this important?" Sui Xiong asked rhetorically.

The Rune God was silent for a moment, and said, "I don't quite understand your thoughts, but if you're looking for a rune mage, then I'll go with you." ”

"To be honest, I'm curious as to why you're going to come to us specifically to recruit ......" (To be continued.) )
