Arcane Linguist

Chapter 389 Baluf: Please tattoo the word "punishment" on my forehead!

"This direction should be correct..."

Because of his almost parallel research on runes, Roland made rapid progress in the research on war patterns.

After just a few days, he extracted the basic spell components he wanted and gradually completed the transformation from witchcraft to arcane magic.

This feeling is as if modern people came to visit a closed primitive tribe and suddenly discovered that they tied some kind of bright stone to their spears to make weapons...

But it turns out that it is a valuable treasure mine!

It can be seamlessly integrated into modern smelting processes immediately.

"Writing itself is also a kind of witchcraft, and it was originally in the hands of the wizards in the tribe."

Beloda had a different feeling.

He learned a lot of witchcraft elements and related knowledge from it, and became more and more interested in it.

"Sir Roland, what do you want from us?"

After a while, Roland got everything ready in his temporary laboratory, and then found several adventurers who came with his group.

"I'll get you something good...

Do you want a war pattern that can be engraved on your body, which is equivalent to a permanent blessing effect? "

"Is there such a good thing?"

All the adventurers' eyes lit up.

Thanks to Atrein's long-standing propaganda, arcane experimentation is regarded as a symbol of civilization and advancement.

Even laser materials containing radiation components can be used to prolong life, let alone something in the hands of a great arcanist like Roland?

This is positive propaganda that is indeed in line with the interests of the ruler, so everyone's cooperation is very high.

After a while, Roland tattooed his own experimental tattoos on each of them.

"Strength pattern (arm area): Strength +2!"

"Agility pattern (heart area): Agility +2!"

"Iron pattern (any part of the skin): biological armor +2! Comes with the "tough iron skin" effect! "

"Thunder pattern (both arms): enchant the fighting spirit with the power of thunder and transform ordinary fighting spirit into the thunder elemental energy!"

These tattoos are diverse, but they have a unified name, called Siris Rune Tattoo.

Its basic principle is to use the runes evolved from the Seris script as inscriptions to obtain power from the heaven and earth.

Roland had already prepared for the experiment to fail, so he used his extraordinary trait of "Wen Yi Zidao" to cheat and forcefully regain his respect.

But I didn't expect that the experiment was very successful.

After these people had several chess-sized characters tattooed on their bodies, they immediately successfully integrated with their respective fighting energy and exerted corresponding effects.

"This feeling is slightly inferior to the power of the blessed bear, but it is better than the permanent effect!"

"Hahahaha, it's so good!"

Several people came outside and performed a set of punches vigorously. Feeling the power gained from the tattoos, they were extremely excited.

While casting spells, Beloda took out his quill to record quickly in the air, and said to several people: "The only negative effect is probably that it will be difficult for you to accept the blessing of similar spells in the future.

However, things with potion properties should still be usable. "

"That's not a loss. Every time you use magic, you will consume a gold coin, but there is not that much money."

Adventurers understand that there are gains and losses, and they don't care.

……

"The effect is even better than expected. It seems that we can continue to conduct research at intermediate level and above with confidence."

After sending away several adventurers, Roland said to Belloda.

"That's, I think there are some pre-existing things that played a key role, like the iconographic component of the Serris script."

"Then work harder on you and find more patterns related to it."

"Yes!"

Although Roland left these boring basic research to Beloda, Beloda did not feel tired at all, but was full of passion.

Because in this process, he was also able to learn a lot of knowledge about Siris runes.

According to initial expectations, low-level tattoos focus on single words.

Intermediate level and above will involve the language of runes.

That involves the secrets of signature results such as magic cards and elemental talismans.

He took the research notes copied by Roland himself, sat at the table, cast spells, and observed.

Sure enough, I found that this seemingly single-word rune used an inscription technology similar to that of a magic card.

Bitmap fonts, rune dot matrix...

This is the key to the Rune Language!

At this time, Roland had already begun to incorporate his extraordinary characteristics into it and conduct research on high-level patterns.

The time is limited at the moment, so he can't get very advanced results at once, but he has taken a trick and plans to use Xingtian Totem and Xingtian belief as support to derive a branch that is biased towards magical effects.

In the previous life of Blue Star, there was such a metaphor for the nature of the human brain.

That is, is the human brain a radio or a computer?

This explores the issue of free will.

"Radio" refers to simple chips and electronic components that can receive and decode complex signals and then convert them into sound waves.

Its role is only to receive signals, and real consciousness occurs at a higher-dimensional level.

The principles of magic in the wizarding world are actually similar to radios.

Priests do not understand the principles of magic, and they do not need to study the arcane laws.

Their most important attribute is perception, which emphasizes being with God.

Can Roland expect those who receive tattoos to understand the principles?

he can not.

Can a tattoo artist be expected to possess arcane knowledge and magical attainments comparable to those of a high-level mage?

also can not.

Then the effect brought about by specific patterns and ritual magic is to take the route of radio.

Enlarging the perception and induction part, emphasizing the resonance with Xingtian...

You can get the blessing of many powerful powers with a simple rune!

This is called...separation of front and rear ends!

In short, no matter how hard you work, just understand the calling interface.

Just believe in the great god Xingtian.

"Coincidentally, I have been studying Xingtian's power for a long time, and my own extraordinary qualities are also related to soul resonance and Wen Yi Zaidao...

Although there is no way to turn it into an arcane magic in a short time and make it widely popular, but not all of those magical arts can also be turned into an arcane magic.

This is an exclusive secret method of the school, which is excellent even if you think about it! "

His confidence in this thing was greater than the low-level basic parts he had studied before, so he quickly found Tata Li to prepare for actual testing.

"The permanent effect of Xingtian's fighting spirit"...

This statement is too arcane.

What Roland said to him was: "I was inspired by the Great God Xingtian to bestow you with supreme glory. May you be with the God of War Xingtian..."

"Really?"

Tatari was surprised and happy.

According to the Mata tribe, Mr. Roland is a prophet, a key figure in leading God Xingtian to come to the world, and a sage-like existence. (Serad is still not willing to admit that the essence of this god is a false god, created by Roland)

If Mr. Roland says it’s okay, then it will be okay.

Soon after, Roland tattooed the word "punishment" on the middle of Tata Li's chest, near his neck.

The external form of this thing is actually a disguise, and it can be replaced by anything else.

The key lies in the magical imprint hidden in it.

Here he used the power of divine aura and Dao-level runes to give him powerful perception and resonance.

When the experiment was completed, fighting energy circulated in Tata, and his body burned with light and shadow like flames.

"It's done!

It’s really the power of God Xingtian! Power that can be used directly without additional prayer or consecration! "

Tatari was pleasantly surprised.

Roland saw it and smiled.

"The basic branches and directions have been determined!"

……

“In this way, I have completed the basic construction of the war pattern system of the Siris School.

It should be able to be combined with Siris warriors or even mages...

Its foundation is rooted in the source of rune magic, and it develops upward into the two branches of divine magic and arcane magic...

You can use this to conduct further in-depth exploration. "

Roland attached great importance to the results of this research, and sent the relevant information back to East Lena through secret channels that night, asking Lei and others who were now in charge of Seris College to outline the project plan.

They need to find someone to arrange manpower funding, write application reports, and contact mages from all over the country to prepare relevant arcane resources.

But Lei didn't find it troublesome at all when he saw it. Instead, he showed a bit of surprise.

He said to a young mage next to him who looked to be in his 30s: "Your opportunity has come!"

“Indeed, once this project is completed, it is a result that can compete for the Morning Star Award and even the Arcane Star Award!

Your Excellency, Roland, was so righteous that he only did foundational research and gave us the follow-up opportunities. "

The young mage said happily.

Not every Arcane Star Award level achievement has to be as huge as the entire Siris Rune system.

That is the result of hundreds of years and thousands of years.

More ordinary Arcane Star Awards are obtained by relying on similar branch achievements.

If this thing could be completely arcane...

That can really make you a great mage.

There was also a flash of excitement in Lei's eyes.

The opportunity for him to say "you" has come, but in fact...

How could it be that this is not my chance?

After so many years, he has already become an eighth-level professor with senior qualifications.

It's time to move up.

Arcane Councilor, Archmage Lei.

This is the goal he pursues!

……

"Tatari, is this your new tattoo?"

On the side of the Sladelta people, Balluff and others once again drank, ate meat, and wrestled with Tatari and others.

In these days when there are no enemies to invade, it is relaxed and happy.

The people of Sladeltan quickly noticed the new tattoos, and a group of muscular men gathered around to look at them, touch them, and admire them.

"Look at this technique, this artistic conception..."

"I feel the blessing of power from this mysterious text!"

"It's really...so beautiful!"

"Isn't that right? If you tattoo this word on your body, you can get closer to my Lord Xingtian and gain His protection!"

Tata Li showed off proudly.

He does not mean that.

Baluf suddenly asked: "Then, if we get this kind of tattoo, can we get the protection of God Xingtian?"

There was sudden silence.

Immediately, people in Sladelta started a heated discussion.

As a primitive tribe with a heritage of tattoos and totems, their obsession with powerful beings and mysterious words is no less than the Arcane Empire's pursuit of arcane magic.

Even because of the simple structure of civilization, it is more pure and fanatical.

Tattoos are their religion, their philosophy, politics, art...

Almost everything closely related to survival and life is included in it.

"This... I'm not sure about this either. Maybe... Mr. Roland should know about it, right?"

Tatari scratched his head.

The simple man did not realize the problem, but he instinctively sensed something related to "preaching" and "cultural export".

After all, spreading the name and glory of God was originally the mission of these warriors who went out to experience.

"Let's go ask Mr. Roland!"

As the leader of the tribe, Baluf was more perceptive than him.

Now he took his recent good friend with him to visit Roland.

"Do you also want to get this tattoo, and even promote the power of God Xingtian in the tribe?"

Roland looked at Balluff who came to the door with a little amusement.

"Yes, although the Great God Xingtian is a foreign god, through these days of understanding, I have understood how great he is...

If we are gifted, we are willing to take refuge in the Great God Xingtian and respect us as the ancestors! "

For such a tribal leader, accepting foreign culture is really a decision that goes against his ancestors.

But when fighting on the battlefield, strength is the most important thing.

In order to become stronger, they can't control so much.

"What a pious and simple warrior...

I think the Great God Xingtian will definitely be willing to protect you.

I can't give an immediate answer to this matter, so I might as well try it on you.

If you can gain strength after the tattoo is engraved, it means that God Xingtian recognizes you. If not, it should be a witness of secular friendship. "

Roland recently learned about the culture of the Sladeltar people.

Close comrades and brothers and sisters often have the same tattoo on one or more of the same parts.

Those twin brothers even deliberately strive to be exactly the same.

"To be honest, as a Grand Arcanist, I should be able to be called a Grand Wizard and have the right to engrave sacred symbols."

Roland tried to express himself in words that the other party could understand.

When Balluff heard this, he was really in awe.

"Your Majesty the Great Wizard, please be sure to tattoo the word 'Xing' on my forehead. I will hold it high to show my respect to the Great God Xing Tian!

At the same time, I also use this most conspicuous position as a witness to my brotherhood! "

The height of the tattoo area...

Similar to the height of a toasting glass.

But the logic is slightly different.

If someone else holds the same pattern in their heart, but you put it on your head, that's just being humble.

This Baluf was indeed worthy of being a leader, and his behavior moved the rough man next to him to tears.

"What a great peace (brother)!"

Roland's lips curled up slightly and he smiled sideways.

This Balluff is a bit interesting.
