Chapter 26 Training and Experimentation
For the vast majority of ordinary people in this world, runes are merely symbolic symbols. Even those wise men who have been studying the true meaning of runes for many years will find it difficult to truly use this power.
The energy of the runes is mysteriously powerful and restrained, like some kind of strategic deterrent weapon created by humans with alchemy many epochs later. It has the power to destroy a city, but if you don't enter the password to activate it, it's just a piece of scrap metal.
El is lucky to have the Rune's Beginning Insight, which is the first condition to unlock all the other rune secrets. But his problem is that his education level is too low to even understand the password.
But fortunately, he now has a group of enthusiastic young people under his command to use for experiments, and the ancient sages said that practice is the only criterion for testing truth, and this principle is equally common everywhere.
On the morning of the rising sun, in the wilderness outside the city of Isttalon, young Creek mercenaries lined up in a column, carrying logs on their shoulders and running along the Greywater River. They were sweating, red-faced, and hoarsely shouting trumpets, exhausted but not daring to stop.
When they came out in the morning, they made a bet with El that if anyone couldn't keep up with the same running exercise, they would come back with nothing to eat. According to their thoughts, this guy El worked hard all night last night, and when he went out, he could see that his feet were weak, and if he couldn't catch up, I was afraid that even the last bit of a man's self-esteem would be trampled on the ground.
Unexpectedly, this bastard simply ate some breakfast, and as soon as he left the city, he recovered most of his spirits, and now no one would believe him even if he was a beast in human skin.
"Pick it up, are you not having enough to eat, or are you taking all your energy out on the?" said El, who also led the way with a log on his shoulder. The logs had a faint aroma of orange fruit, and when the wood was brought back, it was just in time to dry it to dispel the moisture, so they asked each of them to carry one. Although the twenty-pound wood is not heavy, it is not so easy to carry it and run for several miles.
Saying such things from his position once again hit everyone's self-esteem hard, and driven by the anger in his heart, the speed of the team really sped up a few points.
"Your foundation is so poor that you have no training at all. The boss told me that before this, you were all rookies who had just debuted, and you hadn't even seen blood. But it doesn't matter, let me beat it up once a day, and I'll be able to practice it soon. What? You say you don't want to be beaten? Then give me obedience! Whoever is not convinced, I will beat him until he is convinced, understand?"
El tapped George on the shoulder and motioned for him to lead the team back on. He followed the group, and when he saw one of the hapless fellows stumbling and about to lose track of them, he rushed forward and kicked him in the ass.
At the screams of the hapless fellow, El silently tapped him on the back, and a phantom rune fragment flashed away from his hand. The guy who was kicked suddenly screamed and screamed as if he had been beaten to the middle of the group.
The ninth rune sequence is called "Waltz", which means growth. Enchanters use their derived patterns to unleash the hidden magic in their crafting materials. But in El's experience, this power should also be enough to work on the human body. By perceiving the runes, he was able to draw a gourd to simulate a little bit of the appearance of the runes.
After a whole day of experiments, El was pleasantly surprised to find that he was indeed able to stimulate the power of growth runes in this way, although this method was not rigorous, and it could even be said to be unreliable, but at least it proved that his idea was feasible.
Through the True Eye, he clearly saw that when the growth rune was slapped into the human body, the energy operation in the person's body immediately increased explosively.
It's like a fire that is about to be extinguished and a spoonful of fire oil is poured on it, and that momentary burst can increase the energy in the human body by more than three to five times. After that, this power slowly fades and slowly disappears into the body with the flow of blood, and the better the body lasts longer in this process.
El's instincts realized that this was supposed to be an immature way to stimulate the potential in his body, similar to the combat technique "muscle blast" of some powerful fighters he had heard of. If you can have more opportunities to experiment and have a deeper grasp of this rune, maybe this stimulating potential will last longer and longer, and even reach a permanent improvement!
At noon, El returned to the trading house with his test pieces, and the young men, who had been pressed to the limit of their physical strength, stepped into the backyard gate and immediately fell to the ground like dead dogs, their mouths crooked, their eyes slanted, and their mouths foaming.
"Do you know why the high-ranking predators in the forest don't bother to eat an animal as weak as yours? ”
El grinded his teeth, these soft-footed shrimp were worthless to hunt even from his point of view as a great hunter.
"Hell, El, were you raised by a bear?"
Kevin, who was lying at El's feet, couldn't help but spit and struggled to climb to the side. To this day, El still carried the log with an unchanged face, occasionally spinning around his shoulder. If it weren't for the fact that he was sweating a little on his body, no one would have known that he had just exercised.
"There's nothing to be proud of with that little effort, but if you can follow my command and train for a while, you can get to that level. After a day of sticking, El decided to give some sweet dates.
"Come on, if you can teach us all to this extent, what kind of mixed rice do you eat. George wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a sneer.
Looking at everyone's disbelieving eyes, El smiled slightly, and stood on the ground with the log on his shoulder. The 20-pound orange wood is only two meters long, and the bowl mouth is thick, and it looks like a chopstick when it stands up.
"Great strength, strong body is not a skill, whoever is full is strong. ”
El steadied the log, his feet lightly flicked, and his body instantly became as agile as an ape, and he scurried to the top of the log in three or two. Without any support, the log he stepped on with one foot stood upright in place. Standing on the log, El deftly did a backflip, spun three times in the air, and landed steadily back to the ground.
The young people gasped and couldn't help but feel a little numb in their backs. Strength can still be exercised, but if this agility is not exercised from an early age, it will not be able to be learned at their age anyway.
I actually provoked such a monster, and now I think about it, I'm really scared...... However, El does have real skills in his hands, if he can really learn two things from him, where can he not raise his head and be a man in the future?
There were a few young people who had figured it out, and their eyes had become fiery when they looked at El. In this world, the strong are always worshipped, and it is never a shame to succumb to the strong.
"So, call me a head, and let me see how much potential you have left!" El leaned over the log, tilting his head in a smile that could easily evoke a sense of trust.
"Boss, you'll be my boss from now on!" Kevin suddenly jumped up, ran inside, and shouted, "Boss, I'll help you cook!"
"Bastard! this foodie! let him get the first time!" it took a moment for the young men to react, and they all jumped up screaming, and after a commotion, they slipped away.
It's really a hassle to femdom these idiots...... El smiled bitterly and shook his head, he was not good at this, and his own motives were not pure, so it was better to go wherever he went.
He looked up and saw Tika looking at him with a smile on his face.
The girl who tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time had a lazy expression on her face, and unconsciously exuded a happy atmosphere like a little woman. Seeing her watery eyes and spring, El couldn't help but feel hot in her heart.
"What a majesty, Mr. El. Tika chuckled.
El had the heart to rush upstairs to teach the shameless woman a lesson, but he also knew that he had tossed Tika too much last night. It is estimated that she can't get out of bed now, otherwise she will definitely stay at the door and wait for him to come back.
"Go back and lie down, and I'll fix you at night. El threatened viciously.
Tika's face turned red, as if he remembered the madness of last night, and he couldn't help but have a heartfelt expression on his face. She didn't dare to tease El anymore, and said honestly, "Monsieur Jupiter will go to him when you get you back." ”
El touched his nose and coughed a little awkwardly. He was about to introduce his daughter to him yesterday, but he ended up messing with girls at night, which made him a little embarrassed.
But fortunately, the old merchant didn't mention this stubble at all. While El was still immersed in the gentle country, Jupiter's trading house had begun to operate quietly. In less than half a day, his capital chain was full. As long as the old merchant is relieved, with the connections he has accumulated over the years, the caravan will be able to recover in the near future.
After the meeting, the old businessman did not mention his daughter again, but asked El if he needed money now. Yesterday, El emptied his pocket, and now he is relieved, of course, he must return some of it first.
El thought about it, although this money can be more profitable in the future if it is left in the hands of the old businessman, but he is now empty-handed, and he still needs to buy some things, and as a man, he can no longer let Tika take the private money and stick it to himself, so he opened his mouth to receive some.
There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so El inquired of the old merchant's rules in the city, and he planned to take a look around the business district and observe the city carefully.
