Chapter 824: Rune King Graves
"Since you have made your decision, I respect your decision."
"Graves has learned a lot recently, and I believe that he will be able to fully grasp the knowledge left in the treasure rune box of the Runestar soon. I promise that I will definitely let you complete the rebirth before the alien star is destroyed, and witness Saffron with my own eyes. Regret the look of astonishment."
"Thank you... the head of state!"
Link signaled Afu to cover the [Dark Temple], then glanced at the system.
After the conversation with Abaddon just now, the system showed that Abaddon's loyalty had skyrocketed, reaching 97 points in a wave.
It's not about erecting a memorial archway. Since Abaddon has surrendered to him, it is still necessary to respect his own opinion.
Although this ending Link had expected in advance...
Then it's up to Graves.
The reason why Link talked to Abaddon this time was also in Graves.
While walking around, Link walked around the territory of the Rune Gods and found that Graves was not there. He only found out after listening to the other four.
Graves started to study the rune box last time after listening to Link's persuasion, and now he is retreating alone in the backyard.
Link came to the backyard alone, and saw the strange light emitting from the rune box suspended in mid-air. The light escaped along with the runes, forming a holographic state. Many difficult and incomprehensible runes were floating, letting the Graves delved into the analysis.
After talking with Graves, Link proposed the forging of the base weapon, the Frost Rune Sword.
Graves happened to have read the part about the rune forging theory inside the rune box, and was able to answer Link's question.
Graves deeply agrees with Link's desire to make the Frost Rune Sword into an "artifact".
The materials prepared by the head of state are rare in the world, so the weapons made in this way are naturally better.
If it were the original, Graves must be full of confidence.
But after absorbing the theory of forging runes in the rune box, Graves fell into a tangle.
"Führer, if you want to create a handy and lethal weapon, then these materials are completely sufficient."
"But if you want to create an artifact, then what's missing..."
"What's worse,
You can just say it directly. "
Building weapons is not Link's strong point, so he is willing to listen to the opinions of professionals.
After hesitating, Graves said: "If you want to turn an ordinary weapon into a divine weapon, high-quality materials are just the foundation. The reason why a divine weapon is a divine weapon is because it has its own soul character, can think independently, can continuously evolve, and has a powerful entanglement. The power of error and the power of the soul."
"This kind of thing, according to the records in the rune box, we call it—the spirit of the weapon."
"A weapon with a weapon spirit will be immortal."
"The spirit of the weapon will nourish the weapon, and the weapon will also protect the spirit of the weapon. The relationship between the two is indispensable, and they share weal and woe."
After listening to Graves' explanation, Link digested it for a while, and then asked the second question: "Will the weapon spirit be restricted by the shape of the weapon and become a mold with no consciousness but no complete body? "
"If it is a low-level weapon spirit, it will indeed be the case. But this is also the mystery of the forging technology of the Fushen star. Using the power of runes and special skills, the weapon spirit created by the rune box not only has the shape of an object, but also has a special weapon. spirit form."
"It's just that in this form, some perception will be lost."
After Graves finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in Link's mind, which led to the subsequent conversation between Link and Abaddon.
In addition to asking about forging, Link found that Graves' strength also increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.
I believe that as long as he continues to study the rune box, Graves' strength will soon break through the C-level limit and enter the B-level gate.
At that time, Graves, who has [Craftsmanship Inspiration], will forge a soul-infused artifact, and what kind of surprises will it bring him.
The mechanical fortress is like a flat boat sailing alone in the storm in the universe, rushing to Vormir indomitable.
Because Spirit formed a formation with other fleets of the First Order and shared data, it stopped the connection mode with the Mechanical Fortress, and sent Vormir's coordinates and the route of the fleet before forming the formation.
So before arriving at Vormir, both sides must keep silent tacitly.
Although there is no Spirit to provide the latest news, Link has another source of information—the Renegade.
Earlier, the Renegades had re-established communications.
It's just that Link hasn't given any orders, so all the news that comes back is some trivial news.
However, relying on Troy's data processing capabilities, the information gathered by these defectors all over Vormir completely depicted the distribution of Vormir's alien army.
As Abaddon said, the complete continental plate of Vormir shows a gradual decrease in altitude from west to east, and the rugged northwest is the area formed by the extrusion of the oceanic plate and the land plate.
Because it is not conducive to troop formation, development and construction, only a few legions are stationed in the northwest.
If you want to attack, then the northwest is definitely the most favorable place to land. The player's individual combat and coordination capabilities can definitely exert a huge advantage in this kind of place.
Time passed quickly on the mechanical fortress.
Although Penny has arranged a lot of tasks, the mechanical fortress is only so big, and there are only so many daily task requirements. There is no copy inside the spaceship for players to exercise their muscles and bones.
So Poni simply used the martial arts arena to hold a group arena to divert the players' attention.
The activities of the group arena are intense and exciting, and the previous simple 1v1 mode has been abandoned.
Penny launched an advanced mode this time. Players who come on stage need to spend 1 contribution point, and there will be three options at the same time.
1. Win three games in a row (triple)
2. Win five games in a row (five times)
3. Winning seven games in a row (ten times)
As long as the goal is achieved, the reward will be doubled.
The players got the space memory, and they were already panicking. Now that there is a duel mission, they immediately ignited their enthusiasm and wanted to try the new combat system.
In such an atmosphere, the mechanical fortress passed through the leap gates and drove towards the galaxy where the Vormir star was located.
After Helen completely conquered the space memory technology, she left the work of quantitative production to her grandpa Dave and Max, and turned her head to research micro-engines.
Link got the space storage specially made by Helen. Because of the addition of Max's electrification technology, this space storage is extra special. With a slightly modular design, it can be directly embedded in Link's close-fitting 【Multifunctional Combat Clothing】 superior. The internal space has also been compressed many times, which is larger than the three models sold by GM.
And the first thing Link did was to stuff all the weapons he used into the space memory, so that he could temporarily change weapons during future battles, and his tactics became more and more changeable.
If anyone is slightly dissatisfied with this equipment that changes the tactical ecology, it can only be Ah Fu.
Others have space memory, Ah Fu will only congratulate cheerfully.
But when Link also possessed the spatial memory, Ah Fu's expression was awkward, twitching, and full of disappointment.
In the future, the boss will have his own space memory, so he won't rely on his [Magic Energy Backpack].
But Link reassured Ah Fu that the size of the space storage can only hold some commonly used things with him.
Weapons, equipment, ammunition, daily necessities, if you really want any big items, you still need Ah Fu's [Magic Energy Backpack].
Ah Fu is now level 55, and the size of the [Magic Energy Backpack] changes dynamically according to the level, and it is now 55m3. This capacity can be said to be quite terrifying, and if it is larger, it can even directly fit a Harrier-class ship.
With Link's words, Ah Fu was relieved, and then said that he would appear in person in this battle of Vormir!
Link has no objection, since Ah Fu delayed Abaddon, who was possessed by Saffron, the martial arts 99 style has not been left behind.
Now [Magic Backpack] is "epic-level weakened", he has to find it from other places.
A steward plays an important role for the master. —Alfred.
Although I have some opinions on Alfred, I have to admit that what he said is absolutely right.
Ah Fu is now heading in this direction.
The boss is making progress, and his strength is improving.
As a servant, he should keep up!
After sending Ah Fu away, Link returned to the sofa.
The closer he was to Vormir, the more he felt his strength increased, and his confidence increased by one point.
The days when you can’t pretend to be strong always pass so fast. The entire mechanical fortress is like a precision clockwork device. Letting go at that moment bursts out the energy that has been accumulated for a long time...
The [Rebels] sub-category under the Wasteland section of the forum has been very calm.
Link judged the situation ahead by checking the wind news in the forum. According to the current situation, it means that the First Order has not yet arrived.
Just as Link was checking the forum news as usual, he suddenly felt a powerful energy radiating from the mechanical fortress.
This energy is different from previous energies, powerful and mysterious.
Before Link could speak, Troy had already appeared in front of him, with a holographic model of the mechanical fortress in his hand, one of which began to spread powerful energy outward.
"To the Head of State, the direction of the energy surge is within the territory of the rest area, the Fushen Star. The source of the diffused energy is Graves."
Link saw that the diffused energy in the holographic model had weakened a lot in a certain place, and couldn't help pointing and asking, "What's going on here, the energy frequency has suddenly weakened a lot?"
"This is Miss Helen's laboratory. She is currently using some kind of equipment to collect this energy."
Hey, it's really not a waste at all!
Since it was the energy from Graves, Link raised the corner of his mouth, understanding what was going on.
"Troy, ask Ah Fu to help me get the materials, and then come to the rest area to find me in the Rune Star area."
Link left a list, then teleported and disappeared.
He couldn't wait to see the legendary Rune King state.
When Link appeared on the scene, he immediately felt a surge of pure energy.
There are countless runes floating in the air. At this time, Graves is standing in the center. The treasure rune box of the Rune God Star has been twisted open, and the nine rune faces are opened, revealing the innermost rune of the rune box. arts.
The source of all energy dissipation is also here.
This core rune activated the runes on the other nine panels, and at this moment all the rune mysteries of the Rune Star were fully released.
Graves was engulfed in huge energy, the six miniature runes on both sides of the bridge of the nose on his face were all lit up, the energy on his body was drawn by the core runes, the blue energy gradually intertwined with the golden energy in the air, and then combined into one .
Link felt that the energy was fused to the final stage, and the runes in the spinning air penetrated into Graves' body one after another, hidden in the blood.
The runic energy in the center of the phylactery was pulled into Graves with the energy.
Link saw the aura around Graves skyrocket under the Tianzi Wangqi technique, and the energy of the whole person also increased from level to level, jumping to B level.
Just as the energy filled Link's body when he was promoted, Graves' brown pupils were also wrapped in energy at this time, turning golden and constantly emitting light.
The open mouth and nostrils are all spouting energy.
The other four people from Fushenxing also rushed over and looked at each other. They had never seen such a scene before, and they didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, Link has experienced this kind of situation, and he can see at a glance that Graves is not controlling the energy now, but is turned by this energy.
He opened his mouth and pointed out: "The trick of closing yourself, using your consciousness and body to suppress this energy. The more energy leaks, the less energy you hold after you ascend."
This is an instinctive reaction of energy.
Unlike players, NPCs can choose the evolution route after the physical load reaches the limit.
NPC can only choose hard resistance.
If it can't bear the huge energy, the body will disintegrate.
The physical fitness of the Fushen race is much stronger than that of ordinary humans, and it is about the same quality as the first-class humans in the universe, so there is no problem of not being able to hold the B-level energy.
It's just that Graves has just acquired huge energy and is unable to control it, so the energy will leak out aimlessly.
Although Graves couldn't control the energy, he was still conscious.
Immediately close his eyes, nose and mouth according to Link's method.
After the energy couldn't leak out, it ran around in Graves' body.
At this time, Graves began to guide and summarize these rampant energies, and the light escaping from his body gradually dimmed and disappeared.
After a while, Graves took a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes.
It doesn't matter if you don't open it, as soon as you open it, a sharp energy bursts out of your eyes.
Link had expected it a long time ago, leaned slightly, and the energy passed by.
"Forgive me, the head of state, I still can't control this energy well..."
Graves' appearance has changed a lot compared to before. The biggest change is that the runes are branded on his skin, like tattoos.
But in Link's eyes, this thing is no different from the quarantine inspection stamp stamped on pork.
One is recognized by the power of runes, and the other is recognized by the Quarantine Bureau, which are essentially the same.
"It doesn't matter, it will be like this when you just get energy. So next you need an activity that can help you precisely control energy..."
As soon as Link finished speaking, Ah Fu came in with a pile of materials.
"Remember the artifact forging I told you about before?"
Graves' eyes light up, his first rune king status show is coming!
