Chapter 3 The Tablet of Mystery
Arya's alertness led her to spot the goblin hiding in the corner next to Lilian.
She took a deep breath and gathered the wind elementals around her. The breeze gradually surrounded her, creating a swirling current. She felt the power of the wind stirring in her body, longing to be released.
Arya pulled her bowstring and unleashed arrows infused with the wind elemental. The arrows cut an elegant arc through the air, accompanied by the whistling of the wind.
As the arrow flies towards its target, the surrounding air begins to churn, creating a whirlwind. Centered on the arrows, the whirlwind rapidly expanded, carrying the power of the wind towards the goblins in the corner.
The color of the Emerald Bow has also changed, from its original emerald green to emerald blue with a faint blue light. The rune lines on the bow also became clearer, as if it had come to life.
Yuri and Lillian watched in amazement as Arya unleashed her Wind Whispering Arrow skill.
It turned out to be a rudimentary rune!
Yuri: It's a beginner rune! I've never seen a skill like this!
Lillian: Yes, her runic abilities are amazing! She wields her powers so skillfully that it's like she's one with nature.
Arya: It's nothing, I'm just trying to explore and use my power as best I can.
In this world, there are seven different rune levels, each representing different magical powers and abilities. These rune levels include:
Beginner Runes: Beginner Runes are entry-level magic runes with basic magical energy and simple power. They are often used for simple magic and basic defenses in everyday life.
Intermediate Runes: Intermediate Runes have higher-level magical abilities that allow them to cast more complex spells and magical techniques. They are able to create more powerful defensive enchantments and offensive spells.
Advanced Runes: Advanced Runes are advanced magical runes that contain deeper magical powers and a wider range of applications. They can control the elements, heal wounds, change forms, etc., and have greater influence.
Subtle Runes: Subtle Runes are carefully designed and researched rune levels with complex structures and unique abilities. They allow for precise controls and highly personalized magical effects.
Runes of Excellence: Runes of Excellence are powerful and unique rune levels that represent superb magical mastery and transcendent abilities. They can create powerful defensive enchantments, enhance combat capabilities, and more.
Ultimate Runes: Extreme Runes are extremely rare and difficult rune levels to master, containing extremely high magical power and the possibility of breaking through limits. They are capable of incredible feats of magic.
Sacred Runes: Sacred Runes are the highest level of runes and can only be obtained by special individuals bestowed by the gods. They contain divine power and immense majesty that can change the fate of the world.
Only the Arcane Slate, handcrafted by Rune Master Ruiz, can activate the power of runes. These mystical tablets are the result of Ryze's long research and practice, and contain his profound knowledge and skill in runes.
Arcane slabs are usually carved from special rune stones, and the surface is engraved with intricate and fine rune patterns. These patterns contain Ryze's understanding and mastery of the different rune levels, and are able to transform and channel mana to the rune bearer.
When a person owns and carries the Arcane Tablet made by Ruiz, they are able to feel the power of the runes flowing through the Arcane Tablet. By correctly activating the Arcane Tablet and combining it with their own magical powers, they are able to unleash the various abilities and effects that the runes represent.
These mystical tablets are considered extremely precious and rare treasures that only a select few are able to obtain. Rune Master Ruiz will decide whether or not to give them the mystical tablets he has made based on his or her potential and qualifications, so that they can unleash the true power of the runes.
In the Battle of the Abyss between Gods and Demons, those who possess the Mystic Tablets crafted by Ruiz will be a key source of power, and they will be able to use these Mystic Tablets to unleash unparalleled runic abilities.
However, the method of obtaining the slate is not simple, and it requires a certain amount of fate and luck.
Yuri walked over to Arya with a look of curiosity and anticipation.
Yuri: Arya, I've heard that the Arcane Tablet made by Rune Master Ryze can activate the power of runes. Do you know how to get these mystical tablets? I would like to know more about them.
Arya looked at Yuri with a smile, knowing his desire for the Mysterious Slate.
Arya: Yuri, it's not easy to get the Arcane Tablets, they are indeed rare and precious items. Usually, only the right person personally selected by the rune master Ruiz will receive the arcane tablet.
She paused, thinking about how to explain it to Yuri.
Arya: One way to get the Arcane Slate is through Ryze's selection and testing. He observes an individual's potential, magical talents, and courage and determination. If he thinks you deserve the Tablet of Mystery, he may choose you as his successor and give it to you.
Yuri was slightly disappointed, but still hopefully asked:
Yuri: Is there another way? Perhaps there is another way to get the Mystery Slate?
Alya thought for a moment, then gave a possible option:
Arya: Another way is by exploring ancient ruins or rune-related secret realms. These places may harbor lost mystical tablets, and explorers, magicians, or rune researchers often venture to find them.
Arya: But I've heard that there was a ring tournament in the Valley of Fairy Dew recently, which attracted many top runebrages and powerhouses. It is said that the winner of this ring match will be rewarded with a mystical tablet made by Rune Master Ruiz himself.
Yuri's eyes gleamed with excitement when he heard the news.
Yuri: The ring match in Senlu Valley? This is a great opportunity! If I can show my strength there and win the championship, then I have a chance to get the Arcane Slate!
Arya nodded in agreement and said:
Arya: Yes, the ring is a great opportunity to show off your strength. With your identity as a Demon God and a human hybrid and your unique abilities, you're sure to excel in the ring.
She looked at Yuri encouragingly, confident in his strength.
Arya: Yuri, believe in yourself and bring out your true strength. I'm sure you'll be the champion of the ring and get your own Mystery Slate.
Lilian watched as Yuri and Arya talked about the Mystery Slate, her expression becoming a little sad and frustrated. She understood the preciousness and importance of the Mystery Slab, and knew that it represented great power and opportunity.
Lillian: (softly) I'll get my own mystical tablet, too...
Her voice was a little low, revealing a sense of loss in her heart. She felt a gap between herself and Yuri and Arya, which made her feel a little inferior and powerless.
Yuri noticed Lilian's expression and walked up to her, holding her hand tenderly.
Yuri sees Lilian's uneasiness and longing, and he is determined to help her fulfill her wish to obtain the Tablet of Mystery. He knew that Lillian should also have the opportunity to reach her potential and have her own rune powers.
Yuri took a deep breath and looked into Lilian's eyes.
Yuri: Lillian, I know you're eager to get your hands on the Tablet of Mysteries and have your own rune abilities. I will do everything in my power to help you make this wish come true.
Yuri and his friends decide to find a small stream nearby to rest and replenish their water before continuing to Linglu Valley.
They followed the sound of the faint stream flowing through the forest, through the dense woods, and finally came to a clear and serene stream.
Yuri looked at the reflection of the sun shimmering in the stream, and he felt the cool breath, and his heart was filled with peace and joy.
Everyone found a comfortable shade tree, sat by the stream, and enjoyed the breeze. Lilian reached out and gently touched the stream, feeling its flow and vitality.
Arya smiled softly, looked at the clear stream, and offered to take a bath in the stream before moving on, Lillian's face flushed, and she replied shyly.
Lillian: Oh, this... This, Arya, I... I'm a little shy. Take a bath in such a place ... Isn't it a little out of place?
The water splashed, and before Lilian could finish speaking, Arya was already in the stream, she felt the cold water wrap around her body, and a cool feeling quickly spread throughout her body.
Arya laughed heartily as she swam in the water, feeling the water gently brush against her skin. She dances her body, leaving graceful ripples in the water.
She felt the cold water wrap around her ankles, and a cool sensation quickly spread throughout her body. Arya smiled, soaking in the water, feeling the water gently brushing against her skin.
She began to jump and frolic as her feet splashed in the water and droplets fell on her face. Arya's laughter echoed through the surrounding woods, filled with joy and freedom.
She swam in the water to her heart's content, her body turning flexibly in the water, as if she had become a part of the water. She jumped onto the surface of the water, then flipped and fell into the water, splashing a ripple.
Arya enjoyed the soothing and cooling of the water, she closed her eyes and threw herself into this cool world. She felt the current of water take away the exhaustion and stress, making her mind light and happy
Yuri couldn't help but feel a little shy when he saw Arya frolicking in the water. He felt his cheeks heat up slightly, and lowered his head in embarrassment.
Lilian couldn't help but laugh when she saw Yuri's shyness.
Lilian laughed and scolded: Yuri, you pervert! Look at your face is red.
She said, smiling even more happily. Yuri's face turned even redder when he heard this.
Yuri: It's not... I was just a little sudden, a little overwhelmed.
Lillian continued to laugh, clearly intrigued by Yuri's shyness.
While Arya and Lillian frolicked, an evil spirit creature quietly dived into the water and hid underwater. Its grim gaze stared at them, full of malice and intrigue.
However, Arya and Lillian were completely unaware of the evil spirit's existence. They were immersed in the joyous atmosphere, laughter echoing all around, completely unaware of the threat lurking underneath.
The evil spirit waited quietly in the water, its cunning eyes revealing evil intentions. It knows that when they are most relaxed, the best time to strike!
