Chapter 129 There are always some surprising encounters
The climate in the Principality of Xi'en is very hot.
Even though it has arrived in the Dark Night Moon and more than a month has passed since the hottest Sunlight Moon, the air still exudes a sense of wild enthusiasm.
Gothe walked slowly on the road to Sires College, looking at the buildings of different styles on both sides.
It seems that every brick and stone shines with the glory of this historic college, releasing the aura of power.
No one would have thought, including Gothe himself, that a young apprentice who was worried about his life in Hogan City half a year ago would come to Saint-Sien City, the core of the Principality of Sien, half a year later.
And join the most sacred mage academy in the entire principality to study.
Life is really amazing.
Gaode followed the main road of the college and came to the teaching area.
The small building where the Rune Department is located has come into view.
It was a thick, cold black building with two signs, one saying "Rune Department" and the other "Gavin Building".
Gaode has figured out the naming rules of the buildings in the college.
Gavin Building, most likely indicates that this building was built during the period when Gavin Hogg was the dean.
It seems that this is still a relatively new building.
Gothe swiped his identity plate and easily passed through the magic circle set up in Gavin Building and entered the building.
The building is very quiet.
He could even clearly hear the monotonous sound of the soles of his shoes coming into contact with the floor.
This is because the number of people in the rune department is the smallest among all departments in the college.
This is true regardless of the number of mentors or students.
The reason is also very simple and crude.
Rune literature is too difficult, and too many people can’t even get started!
But the rune department, which has the smallest number of people, is lucky enough to be assigned such a brand new and independent building.
Hence, you must know that even in the entire college, there are very few departments that can own an independent building.
It can be seen from here that although runes are difficult, they are worthy of its difficulty and are highly valued.
This is also true. The rune master has always been regarded as the head of the three families of magic craftsmen.
Gaode walked along the corridor and finally met a student.
"Hello, I would like to ask where the office of Instructor He Xi is?" He stepped forward and asked.
"Do you have something to do with Director He Xi?" The student looked quite old and must have been a veteran student for many years. He looked at Gaode's unfamiliar face and asked subconsciously on guard.
Gaode nodded and said truthfully: "I am a new student, and the instructor I was assigned is Director He Xi. I came to report to him today."
"You were assigned to Director He Xi? How is it possible? Director He Xi never accepts students."
The veteran student had a surprised expression on his face, and then he seemed to think of something, "You are the freshman who entered the school with Dean Gavin's recommendation letter!"
"No wonder. According to the college's regulations, students who enroll with the highest salary, no matter which instructor is assigned, the instructor cannot refuse." The veteran student showed a clear look.
"Director He Xi's office is on the top floor, but he is usually not in the office. He spends most of his time in the rune studio. If you want to find him, go to the rune studio on the third floor." He thought for a while and said to Gothe.
"Thank you." Gao De thanked him and left with the veteran student.
It’s just that he didn’t notice that after he left, the veteran student looked back at his back.
A trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes.
Gaode climbed to the third floor and came to the rune workshop that occupied almost half of the space on the third floor.
The door of Rune Studio is open without any obstruction.
Gaode hesitated for a moment, but still stepped into it.
A large workshop, like a laboratory in science fiction films and television works, appeared in front of Gothe's eyes.
The light in the workshop is very bright and soft, obviously designed to facilitate precise operations.
The walls are covered with various rune diagrams and corresponding analysis diagrams.
In the center of the workshop is a spacious and bright workbench, made of special materials and engraved with many complicated magic runes.
The workbench is scattered with random stacks of draft paper and various tools, including carving knives made of fine gold, wedge-shaped scrapers, and pens made of various precious magic materials
Next to the workbench is an area dedicated to carving runes, with a protective barrier around it to prevent accidents.
In addition, there are three towering bookshelves filled with various books, scrolls and manuscripts.
This is what can be seen on the surface. In fact, there are many invisible designs in this rune workshop.
Including a powerful energy supply system, advanced element control magic array, various invisible warning runes and monitoring arrays, which can monitor various abnormal situations at any time and issue alarms in time and activate corresponding defensive measures
And inside the workshop, there is also a small room, but the door is closed at this time.
Gaode glanced around and found no one.
Either Director He Xi is not in the workshop at this time, or he is in a small room inside the rune workshop.
Gothe thought for a moment, knocked on the open door, and after making a loud sound in the quiet rune workshop, said loudly to the empty workshop:
"New student Gothe, come and report to Instructor Jose Oliken."
His voice echoed in the work room.
The next moment, an old but calm, calm and emotionless voice sounded from the small room with the closed door in the workshop.
"Have you ever come into contact with runes before?"
"Never." Gao De said honestly.
"Read the information on the table first, and then you can leave after reading it." This voice issued instructions directly to Gaode, without any greetings or greetings.
Didn't even come out to meet Gaode face to face.
It seemed a little too indifferent, but Gaode did not feel uncomfortable because of it.
In fact, he doesn't like so-called polite greetings.
Not only is Gothe not disgusted with this straight-to-the-point way of assigning tasks, he even likes it.
Gaode nodded, and then realized that he could see his nod through a door.
He laughed and didn't add anything else, silently walking to the central workbench.
Just seeing the messy information and manuscript papers scattered randomly, Gothe was still stunned for a moment.
So, what information did Jose O'Kenley want him to read?
Gaode's eyes quickly swept over the papers and materials.
First of all, exclude those rune diagrams and even analysis that are extremely complicated at first glance.
As a person who has never been exposed to runes, he cannot understand it at all.
As the director of the runes department, He Xi would not let a layman look at this right away.
Then, the analysis of profound principles is excluded, for the same reason as above.
It must be something I can understand at a glance. It is a simple thing. Gothe did not choose to ask Jose O'Kenley what information he wanted to see.
Because he felt it was too stupid to ask this question.
He makes selections based on his own experience.
Soon, an open booklet attracted Gothe's attention.
This should be a handwritten note, and the words on it are all handwritten.
The paper pages are very old, even yellowed, and the edges are wrinkled. It has obviously been aged for a certain period of time.
The reason why Gothe noticed it is also very simple. He can understand what is written in this notebook.
"Rune looks complicated, but in fact there are rules to follow. As long as the most basic rules are set at the beginning, everything can slowly evolve and calculate on its own."
Hey, this should be the basic theory and concept of runes
Gothe saw this general sentence and was already sure of the identity of this handwritten note.
Definitely an introductory theory of runes!
It is just right for a layman like him.
This must be the information that Jose O'Kenley wanted him to see.
Gaode continued to look down.
"Six basic rules of runes:"
"Rule 1: Under any circumstances, it must be ensured that the actual robustness value generated by all the runes in the magic array is less than the theoretical maximum robustness value that the magic array can carry, otherwise the magic array will fail."
"Rule 2: Multiple basic runes are connected to form a composite rune, and multiple composite runes are connected to form a magic array."
"Each basic rune in the compound rune must be in a pair, and the energy ratio of each basic secondary rune to the basic high-level rune is one to four and sixty-four percent;"
"But if two identical secondary basic runes are connected, then in this combination, the energy generated by this pair of secondary basic runes is equal to that of the high-level rune, which is four and sixty-four percent, not two."
"Set the zero-level rune energy as one. The sum of the energy of all composite runes in a magic circle is the total energy of the magic array."
"Rule 3: For any basic rune, the number of connected basic runes of the same level cannot exceed eight, and the number of connected basic runes of the same level cannot exceed two, and the arrangement direction of these two basic runes must be On the contrary, otherwise the compound rune will not be effective. "
"Rule 4: The runes must be engraved on the magic-guiding material. The magic-guiding material has a magic resistance rate. The magic resistance rate can measure the magic-guiding performance of a magic-guiding material."
"The magic resistance rate reflects the ability of the magic-guiding material to hinder magic power and is a property of the material itself.
The smaller the magic resistance rate is, the less the magic resistance of the magic guidance material is, and the better the magic guidance performance is; conversely, the larger the magic resistance rate is, the greater the resistance of the magic guidance material is to magic power, and the worse the magic guidance performance is. "
A rune can be combined with multiple adjacent runes to form multiple rune pairs (as long as one rune in the rune pair changes, it can be used as a new rune pair);"
"But if the two runes in the rune pair are of the same type, the rune pair is an interference pair."
“Rule 6: The theoretical robustness value of a magic circle is equal to the number of runes on the guide material multiplied by the number of rune pairs multiplied by (1-magic resistance rate), and the actual robustness value is equal to the total energy of the magic array multiplied by the interference pairs.”
