Devourer of the Six Realms

Chapter 134 Rune Master

The two introduced each other, and Jin Xiaokai learned that the old man's name was Murdoch, and he was a runegrapher who had traveled on the Divine Grace Continent.After chatting with Murdoch for a while, Jin Xiaokai had a more comprehensive understanding of the profession of Rune Rune Master.

In fact, rune masters are very rare, and their existence is extremely important to both the Nine Star Empire and the Freedom League.The most obvious aspect of this is the privilege of a rune master: as long as a person becomes a rune master, no matter whether he serves the Nine Star Empire or the Freedom League, he will not be harmed by another country. The division is also free to choose to "hop" to another country, and no one will stop it.

In the entire Shenen Continent, or even in the entire Tianding space, the total number of rune masters is not very large, no more than twenty at most.This number is evenly distributed among each city, and even several large cities can have a quota—but there are many rune masters who like to travel among the ruins on the mainland and do not want to serve the country, so this number needs to be increased. Get a discount.

After Jin Xiaokai heard this, he was extremely surprised, and couldn't help asking: "But... are there really so few rune masters? In my feeling, drawing runes doesn't seem to be too complicated. something?"

Murdoch laughed and said, "How should I say this thing? The difference between ordinary people and runegraphers should be between 'knowledge' and 'specialization'. You can look at these people, they are Under my guidance, part of the runes can be drawn." Murdoch pointed to the busy white-robed priests, and continued: "But their limit is to reach this level, if they want to understand the whole runes Composition, or the meaning of each basic rune, that is really a very difficult thing."

Jin Xiaokai thought about it, the functions of the basic runes are indeed ever-changing and complicated, if you use the general learning method, you will never be able to fully learn them in your lifetime.The reason why I was able to master this knowledge was entirely because Huoya directly transmitted the relevant things to my brain - thinking about it this way, I was really lucky.

It can be seen from this that anyone who can become a rune master has wisdom and talent that ordinary people can hardly match.

When Jin Xiaokai looked at Murdoch again, there was already a hint of admiration.

"Then why are you on this empty ship?"

"A rune master is also a human being, and he also needs to eat and spend... Myojin sect hired me to arrange runes for them, that's why I'm here." When Murdoch said this, he seemed quite humorous , The wrinkles on the face seemed to be stretched out. "It's very profitable."

"Arranging runes? Is this the one?" Jin Xiaokai asked after looking at the runes on the deck.

"Yes. This is a search rune, which can find specific people in a radius of tens of miles or even farther away." Murdoch explained to Jin Xiaokai in detail: "I heard that what we are looking for is a few blasphemous gods pagans, and they are hiding in this twilight canyon."

After hearing this sentence, Jin Xiaokai almost turned around and ran away in fright!What are you kidding?I am one of the "heretics". If this rune really works, I am afraid that I will be the first one to find it!

Seeing Jin Xiaokai's complexion changed slightly, Murdoch didn't know what Jin Xiaokai was thinking, and thought he was just worried about those heretics, so he comforted him: "Little brother, don't worry, it's just a few It’s just a little heathen. The airship we’re on now has powerful attack firepower. You’ve seen the power of the ‘six-wave booster’ just now, even if it’s a spirit beast living in the spirit of the earth Not an opponent, isn't it easy to deal with those heretics?"

Jin Xiaokai said: "It's because you are so strong that I'm worried." Pretending to be relaxed, he said: "It's nothing, I just find it strange. What's so special about these pagans that they can provoke so many people?" Going to war? Even ask you, the rune master, to help."

Murdoch looked around and found that no one was paying attention to them, so he whispered in Jin Xiaokai's ear: "This is what I overheard, it is said... It is said that those people Humans are earth humans who came out of the earth in the wild space!"

Jin Xiaokai was stunned, but he tried calmly on the face: "Didn't it mean that the space passages have been blocked? How come there are still humans on Earth running out?"

Murdoch sighed, and said, "How do I know this? Maybe they found another way. Anyway, this is a troublesome matter, and I don't know what will happen in the future."

Jin Xiaokai found out that Murdoch actually didn’t know much, and there was even less information about humans on Earth after some side-talking, but there was a legend circulating in all parallel spaces: Humans on Earth Once you leave the wild space, it will trigger a catastrophe!

What is the specific content of this disaster, no one knows, but this legend has been passed down since ancient times, and no one dares to ignore it easily, so that when everyone hears the words "human beings on earth", they immediately feel Fear like snakes and scorpions.

Jin Xiaokai was puzzled, wondering which guy this damn legend came from.However, according to his guess, at least the upper echelons of certain countries should be aware of the real mysteries inside, such as the royal family of the Nine Star Empire or the Pope of the Myojin Sect, what they know must be very different from the "legends" that are circulated .

Even the "God's Curtain" organization that Jin Xiaokai came into contact with at the beginning should know a lot of inside information. After all, they used to secretly develop forces on the earth, and they dared to sell the pass to leave the earth. Obviously, they didn't care that legend.

Suddenly Jin Xiaokai thought of a question that shocked him: there should have been people who left the earth in the past, why can't we hear any news about these people in the Tianding space now?Could it be that these people have all been secretly killed?Or captivity?

Thinking of these two possibilities, Jin Xiaokai felt a little cold.

Fortunately, I hid my identity and activities back then, otherwise, I might have been hunted down by the Myojin sect like Wei Xiaoyu and others.

Murdoch's knowledge about runes is extremely rich, and when he mentions runes, he can't stop talking, regardless of whether Jin Xiaokai can understand or not, anyway, he just keeps talking about various things.The white-robed priests who were arranging the runes gave Jin Xiaokai a few sympathetic eyes, obviously they had already suffered from Murdoch's pain.

However, Murdoch's rune knowledge is not very comprehensive, and there are some mistakes and omissions in some places. After all, he did not obtain rune knowledge directly by brainwave transmission like Jin Xiaokai.It's hard for Jin Xiaokai to point out these mistakes and omissions. He only has to force a smile on his face and pretend that he doesn't understand. It's really hard.

Suddenly, the white-robed priests cheered, and it turned out that the rune they were arranging had been completed.Jin Xiaokai was shocked, and quickly called out in his consciousness: "Huoya! Hurry up and help, don't let their probing runes find out that I am also a human from Earth!"

Huoya's lazy voice came: "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, even if you add a hundred search runes, you won't be able to find your head."

With Huoya's guarantee, Jin Xiaokai was determined, and said with a smile, "That's good." But Jin Xiaokai immediately thought of another thing, and couldn't help frowning slightly.Now that he is safe, what about Wei Xiaoyu and the others?Maybe this search rune will really find them out, and then I can't just watch them get caught.

Jin Xiaokai rolled his eyes and immediately had an idea.Isn't there a powerful weapon "six-wave booster" on this airship?If this thing is quietly destroyed, then these Myojin sect members will naturally no longer pose any threat, at least Wei Xiaoyu and others can still escape.

The more Jin Xiaokai thought about it, the more reasonable it became, and evil thoughts popped up in his heart one after another: "By the way, I can also destroy this airship so that they can't chase after it with the empty boat! Humph , I see what good countermeasures they can come up with!" It's just a pity that I don't have any laxatives on me, otherwise it would be a good idea to add some ingredients to the meals of these Myojin sect people.

Jin Xiaokai suddenly realized that it seemed like a good opportunity for him to stay on this airship.

After the search rune was completed, it was activated by Murdoch's input of energy.One after another, the runes flashed up, and with a "wave", they turned into light spots and floated up, forming a sphere of light on the deck.Countless small light grids are divided on the sphere, and the terrain of the Grand Canyon below is displayed in every detail.

"Wow! Isn't this holographic imaging technology? But it's amazing that it can do this without satellites." Jin Xiaoxin admired inwardly, with a surprised expression on his face at the same time.Several other priests in white robes were also amazed, gathered around and pointed.

After seeing the expressions of everyone, Murdoch felt proud.He is actually a very vain person. The reason why he was able to become a rune master in the first place was because he liked the feeling of being aloof and being worshiped by everyone.

No matter how many times you repeat this feeling, you will never get bored.

"This...how do we investigate?" Jin Xiaokai looked at the holographic image, but didn't find anything special about it.

"First, there must be an item of the person being detected, so that breath sampling can be carried out." Murdoch pointed out.

ps: It's the end of the year, it's not easy...
