Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Wake up, Dagon (Part 2)

The rune is a good thing. Dagon has heard this sentence countless times from his father and has long agreed with this concept. If you want to be invincible, in addition to physical training and cultivation martial skills, you must also apply mana to the rune to exert effects that cannot be produced by the body and the sharp blade alone.

For example, the headhunter is a rune that can give the user a big advantage when facing a charge. To take advantage of a rune machine, you must provide it with the right mana and operate it in the right way. spell is actually the same principle, and the rune device is an extremely simplified version of spell.

"I can't use mana yet, so I can't activate rune?"

"Everyone uses mana, but the idiots of this world never think about it Reason." Reid raised his old hand, pointed at Dagon and said, "In the future, every time you look in the mirror, you have to say to yourself 'I'm an idiot, I want to think' to wake up yourself. Like air and water, it goes in through your mouth and comes out the back of your ass. You don't use mana? You just don't use your mana the way someone else does."

"Hmmm ...you make a lot of sense, but I don't quite get it, you seem to be implying that I don't want to use mana in other people's ways, why?" Dagon asked, "Aren't those proven methods bad? Isn't what you taught me other people's methods?"

"The methods currently used by the Jiangu clan can't be called bad, it can only be said that they pay too much attention to sophistication and become superficial without original connotation. Technology. Since you are Spiritual God's attuned state, I suggest that you revisit how to use mana from the most primordial stage."

Dagon shook his head: "This method sounds stupid. Previous Spiritual God The method that the enlightener figured out, should I do it all over again? I don't have that kind of time and energy, let alone that kind of wisdom. My magic power, as long as I can use it, can bring a good life to my family. I can even... Just let me live."

Reid seemed to have expected Dagon to have such an idea, he shook his head and explained calmly: "In the beginning, those Spiritual God enlighteners, they had to face Was the situation the same as it is now? The circumstances then, the dangers then, the problems they had to solve then were the same as they are now?"

Dagon scratched his beard, thought about it, and shook his head. : "My history is not good, but I think the situation faced by the earliest Jiangu ancestors tens of thousands of years ago must be different from now. After all, the descendants have made a lot of progress without the initial difficulties. The situation has changed, but the research foundation of spell and rune has not changed, and even developed slanted technologies on the basis that they are no longer suitable for the current environment?"

"Very good! Very good! My expectations That's right!" Reid grinned, and then laughed loudly. His shoulders were shaking because of the laugh, and his feet were kicking on the ground.

Laughing and laughing, Rhett began to cry again, and four lines of tears fell on his wrinkled face and were wiped away by the root of his palm. Sucking his nose, he said with his red eyes: "The basis of all the use of mana is the same, very, very simple. You focus your attention and let your willpower directly control and transcend the body. At this time, the mana will be mobilized Get up and move naturally to all surfaces of the body. The mana goes from the inside to the outside, and it will converge to the top of the limbs, that is, the fingers and toes. At this time, you only need to put your fingers on the rune, and there will be mana to activate the rune to produce an effect. When the effect occurs, don't stress your body, just follow the feeling."

Dagon listened carefully, and then showed an incredible expression: "First call out the mana, and then just point a finger? It's that simple? "

"Yes, it's that simple." Reid said: "The initial mana is as simple as punching with fists and biting with teeth. Although it is simple, it is not very efficient and has many restrictions." , so later people will study wooden sticks, stone hammers, that is, those spells. Until now, the training of priests, the factions of mages, etc., they are all carved patterns on the original wooden sticks and stone hammers. Yes. Isn't it right? It's right. As for..."

Rhett stopped abruptly, ending the topic. He raised his hand, placing his index finger on Dagon's chin, and said, "This time I'll tell you the answer directly: Shuo is here. Okay, it's time, wake up."

Dagon sucked. Take a breath, then close your eyes. His body burned, and then split into dozens of fire snakes, which quickly flew into the surrounding fire circle. Dagon doesn't know that every time he disappears like this, he doesn't know that every time he appears it's the reverse of the process.

When Dagon disappeared, Rhett snorted, sitting on the stone pier with Erlang's legs raised. There was an impatient look on his face, and his expression at this time was more like a young man than an old man. Just across from him, the mist on the ground condensed upwards, forming six short, sturdy figures.

Not waiting for the actions of these Jiangu clansman figures, Rhett spoke first: "Spiritual Gods of the dwarves, long time no see. You condescended to come here to see me, a prisoner. Are you doing well?"

One of the shadows with the largest beard and the shortest body said: "You are an outsider who broke into the world, and it is your luck to have a soul realm for you to live in, not What we did. My Jiangu tribe doesn't want to imprison you, but there is no way to let you out, let alone sacrifice Jiangu clansman's life to give you his body. Even if you are a prisoner, you are not a prisoner of our Jiangu tribe. If you have a way to go, you can go."

"I can't go." Rhett said: "I don't blame you, I will treat you as a jailer who can look after me but can't let me go. Saying Well, what's the matter with disturbing me this time?"

"You know that."

"Don't play this kind of nonsense, it's boring." Reid scratched his scalp, then Winking at the opposite Jiangu Spiritual God. "Why are you looking at me like this? It was agreed before that Dagon is an adult and his mana is awakened, so I can chat with him. I've been trapped for sixty years, what's wrong with talking?"

"The previous In the agreement, what you have to do is to teach him what you know, and let him bring it to the Jiangu family, so that the Jiangu family can reproduce the glory, not teach him to be you!" The Jiangu gods formed by the shadow said: "From the most The ancient Neil family, the elder son of this generation Neil family, is expected to be the king, which is the most fateful choice."

Rid shook his head, waved his hand, and said, "I am right I'm not interested in your arrangement, I only teach according to my own ideas. And don't worry, even if I use all my skills and all my scheming, I can't turn Dagon into me. His ideas... some of his ideas even Exceeded my expectations. Is he called naive, or is it some other quality that I don't see clearly?"

"We will continue to observe, you don't cross the line." The shadow gradually disappeared, and finally left In a word: "Your life is short, cherish it."

The shadow disappeared, Rhett twitched his lips, and said: "I am not a dwarf, so naturally I can't live too long. But if not If you intervene, I could have lived with the body of a dwarf, with a lifespan of four or five hundred years. If I had a body, this world would have been different."

Even with great ambitions, he has long been rejected. polished. For sixty years in Dagon's soul realm, Rhett couldn't affect anything and could only watch the fire alone. Now that Dagon is an adult, his mana is awakened, and he has the potential to completely control the soul domain, which can threaten Rhett's life at any time.

"It's just a remnant of the soul, can this be considered life?" Reid smiled wryly, curled up, and gradually merged with the stone pier under his seat.

Dagon, on the other hand, opened his eyes and was immediately gulped. He coughed violently, spraying warm water from his nostrils.

"I'm still alive, I'm still alive..." Dagon looked around and found himself still in the water, shaking with the current. The reason why it was not swept away by the current was because an ice block was stranded in the exposed shallows of the underground channel, and the headhunting axe was hooked on the ice block, while his arm was still entangled in the belt, which was connected with the headhunting axe. one.

The ice cubes are melting, and it won't be long before they re-float, and he'll lose that fulcrum. Without further ado, Dagon worked to concentrate one's mind, commanding his muscles to obey instructions.

People will lose body temperature rapidly in ice water, causing the body to lose control, and eventually unable to exert force and unable to save itself. Jiangu clansman is physically tenacious, able to last longer, but impossible to be immune to frostbite. Dagon tried to raise his hands and move his legs, but his limbs simply didn't move.

If it were the other youngsters of the Hunting Trial, there was no way to think about it at this time, but Dagon was different from them, he was already able to manifest mana. Although focused will failed to control the muscles, it evoked a mana response. Dagon felt a resilient, very thick, and fiery energy emanating from within, surging down the blood vessels through his limbs and down to the tips of his fingers.

"Hot? It's life-saving warmth..."

The hot mana seemed to electrify Dagon's muscles, ordering the parts to work. He found that he could move his hands and feet slowly, and at the same time, he found that the pain was coming from all over the body. Restoring consciousness is also restoring pain. Pain always makes people feel alive more than numbness.

Dagon begins to climb upwards, and the first hunting axe is his hope of survival. After three minutes, he finally moved forward for half a meter. At this time, he suddenly felt pain in his knee, which turned out to be hitting the bottom of the river. With this feeling, he hurriedly changed his strategy, kissing the bottom of the river greedily with his feet, using the stinging pain as his blind guide. In this way, he stood up again, and the river was actually just over his waist.

"Survived." He panted, eagerly declaring victory to give himself some extra strength.
