Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 266 Rune Technology, I Can Enchant Mecha
"Rune Technology Theory" is linked to "Rune Magic".

But it is impossible for the current Li Lin to thoroughly master the "rune theory".

Even with the blessing of the system, he would not be able to thoroughly study all aspects of rune magic unless it took an unpredictable amount of time.

Except for demigod ascenders like Xerath, the only human being who is proficient in rune magic is Ryze, the rune mage.

Li Lin thought he couldn't compare to this arcane master who had lived for thousands of years, and was affected by the overflowing power of world runes, whose lifespan had been infinitely extended.

After all, his main job is "mechanic". He is an outright arcane mage who claims to have penetrated rune magic. The understanding of magic between the two is not at the same level.

The study of "rune technology" is based on the knowledge of rune imprints.

Although there are only 5 rune marks, they correspond to precision, mastery, witchcraft, determination and enlightenment.

But these five main runes can be disassembled and reorganized into various seals, and different permutations and combinations have different effects.

For example, the most basic elemental enchantment function, adding water, wind, thunder, fire, earth and other resistances to items, the most required symbol is determination.

Combined with witchcraft, it can add resistance to water, wind and thunder attributes.

Paired with Juggernaut, it can add resistance to fire and earth attributes.

Even under the random arrangement and combination, new magic effects that have not even been recorded in the system can be discovered.

It may have a beneficial effect, or it may be extremely dangerous. When the energy is full, blowing up half of the city is not a problem.

This is also one of the main reasons why Li Lin feels that he has no way to understand the theory of runes.

If the mark is engraved on a small blue crystal or special metal, it becomes a special magical amulet.

Of course, the unlocking of rune technology is not only that simple.

Like an ordinary mechanical device, it can also imprint a seal, and the effect it brings is far better than the Hex technology that relies solely on energy crystals to achieve scientific control of magic.

In short, compared with HexTech, Rune Technology is the real "magic technology".

Combining the knowledge he already knew, Li Lin frowned and thought for a long time, and finally selected a few rune magics that were barely suitable for his armor, and wanted to use them for experiments.

A combination of precision, domination, determination and enlightenment, which can automatically absorb magical elements in the air or its own energy for item repair.

A magic that enhances the effects of energy weapons using a combination of precision, dominance, and sorcery.

A magic that uses precision, sorcery, and enlightenment to automatically absorb the free magic elements in the air and recharge mechanical items.

There is also a spell that uses a combination of Resolute and Enlightenment to enhance the defense of an item.

Li Lin first entered these four runes for enchanting into Zhinao, and then came to the workshop where the battle armor was made.

Once you have mastered the arrangement and combination of rune marks, it is actually very simple to enchant an item, as long as you use magic to continuously engrave rune marks on the surface of the item.

Even if Li Lin doesn't use his own mana, the mechanical arm using the Hex energy crystal as the energy supply core just meets the requirement of "magic energy".

Just when Li Lin was about to directly control the mechanical arm to operate on the third-generation Infinity Warframe, the reminder from the brain made him dispel this idea.

【Master, according to my calculations, the probability of you successfully enchanting the first magic is 22%, and the probability of enchanting the second magic is only 3%...】

[Are you sure you want to directly enchant the source plan? Infinite three-generation armor?This may cause damage to your Warframe. 】

That's right, it's my first time enchanting, so I should practice first.

Because Li Lin had just unlocked the new technology, his feverish mind instantly calmed down.

"Thank you for the reminder, Zhinao."

【Serving you is my job. 】

Since it is not possible to directly enchant the Infinity Armor for the time being...

Li Lin looked around and glanced at the "empty" workshop.

In order to earn blue essence, he had sold all the air combat machines to [Essence Store].

And the morning light that accompanied him all the way in Shurima was also given to him by Li Lin as a gift in order to reach a cooperation with Yabus.

"In that case..."

Li Lin thought for a while, reached out and pointed at the materials in the room, urged the mana circulating in his body, and used the "Extremely Fast Assembling" skill.

The mana points poured out like a torrent that opened the gate, and hundreds of them were quickly consumed.

At the same time, each of the mechanical parts seemed to be held up by countless invisible hands, and they quickly flew to him, and they were pieced together.

The mana continued to be consumed in large quantities, and cold sweat oozes from Li Lin's forehead and temples.

Due to the consumption of too much mana at one time, his body produced a slightly uncomfortable physiological phenomenon.

Dizziness, nausea, a deficiency like a kidney deficiency in the body...

In the end, when the mana value of more than 9000 dropped to more than 5000 in just a few seconds, a three-generation Infinity Warframe of ordinary quality appeared in front of Li Lin.

"call--"

Li Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and took the handkerchief from the robotic arm controlled by the brain, and wiped the sweat from his forehead and the side of his face.

To be honest, even some experienced mages can't bear such a consumption of mana.

Generally, when a large amount of mana needs to be consumed, magic items are used to construct a magic circle instead, and magic is directly drawn from nature.

That is to say, Li Lin's body has been strengthened to do so, so there is no major problem.

"This extremely fast assembly is easy to use, but assembling a set of third-generation armor is too expensive, right? Although I haven't added much to this skill, it's only level 5.

"Hey... It seems that it is not possible to make three generations of armor with extreme speed assembly for training. Let's create a storm to experiment later."

While thinking, Li Lin drank a bottle of twilight potion to make up for the lack of body, and by the way, asked Zhinao to fix the armor on the shelf and start enchanting it.

The energy crystal is activated, and several mechanical arms are under the control of the brain to start the normal test before use.

At the end of the test, Li Lin chose a robotic arm originally used for laser welding, removed its laser nozzle, and quickly transformed it into a purely output energy effect.

For the sake of conservatism, the first enchantment must not be performed at the same time.

Li Lin put on the protective gear, and focused his gaze on the chest where the Hex core was originally installed on the armor.

He is going to enchant the armor with a magic that can automatically absorb the magic power in the air to self-supply.

This kind of rune magic is also used in energy crystals, which he is familiar with.

Let the intelligence brain power on the battle armor, unfold the armor on the chest, and reveal the groove of the energy core.

Li Lin took a deep breath, concentrated on manipulating the mechanical arm to probe the chest of the battle armor.

As his thought moved, the mechanical device squeezed the energy crystal, and the blue-white pure energy flowed upwards along the mechanical pipe and sprayed out from the launch device of the mechanical arm.

The moment he touched the core groove, Li Lin immediately controlled the mechanical arm to start moving.

The hot blue energy left a blue and white mark on the core groove of the armor.

Soon, the first half witchcraft sigil was successfully engraved.

Li Lin didn't dare to hesitate too much, and immediately began to imprint the enlightenment mark on the other half next to it.

The first few rune imprints were imprinted very smoothly, but when it was the third from the bottom, an accident happened.

The Precision Seal and the Enlightenment Seal suddenly changed, and they were not compatible. A small-scale explosion occurred, burning the groove of the armor to fill the energy supply core, making it impossible to continue enchanting.

Li Lin let out a heavy breath, took off the goggles, and his eyes stayed on the chest of the battle armor, "Zhinao, have you analyzed the reason for the failure?"

[According to my calculations, the probability of accidents is 12.76%, the probability of the two runes being incompatible is 3.4%, the probability of not being able to enchant with energy is 43.5%, and the probability of output power being wrong is 79.89%. 】

【Master, I suggest that you try to adjust the power of the energy output, which can be selected from the range of 79%-93%. 】

Li Lin nodded, and directly ruled out the option "Energy cannot be enchanted" which also has a relatively high probability.

If it is really impossible to enchant with energy similar to magic, then the engraving of the symbol will fail at the beginning, and there is no need to wait until the third last.

He spent mana to use "Mechanical Repair" to repair the armor, and immediately continued to operate.

When it came to the third last rune, Li Lin tried to adjust the power, but failed more than ten times before successfully engraving it.

As for the last two seals, he couldn't remember how many times he had failed.

Anyway, in the end, this set of Infinity Armor put together using "Extreme Assembly" can no longer be restored with "Mechanical Repair", and it is considered completely scrapped.

When it was almost dawn, Li Lin scrapped four or five newly assembled storm robots before attaching the "self-charging" rune magic to an air combat machine.

Li Lin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling physically and mentally exhausted for the first time after strengthening his body.

Self-recharging is a very good magical ability, simply engraved on the core part, at least supporting the flight of the storm robot is no problem.

But if you use energy weapons, it will not be enough at all.

According to the brain's calculations, if some materials of the storm robot are replaced with natural conductors of magic, and then engraved with "self-charging" rune magic all over its body, then the three energy crystals can be completely replaced.

Only in this way, the production cost of the storm robot will increase several times, and the loss outweighs the gain.

After all, the price of magic materials is not comparable to that of ordinary materials.

However, the "self-charging" magic that Li Lin currently masters can only be regarded as the lowest-level application of magic technology.

For relatively advanced charging rune magic, his current success rate is only a few tenths of a percent, which can basically be summed up as zero.

You can't become fat if you eat in one go.

He had to fully control the most basic "self-charging" before he could slowly increase the level of enchantment.

Li Lin glanced at the clock on the wall. It was still some time before dawn, and he took another sip of the low-light potion to refresh himself.

"Let's try the magic that strengthens the defense again."
