Chapter 183

"What conditions are needed to become a rune construction master?" Gao De asked.

He wanted to know if he met the conditions.

"First, you need to have outstanding talent and supernatural creativity in rune studies." He Xi looked at Gao De.

"It sounds like it's not much, but this outstanding, is not ten people, not a hundred people, but a thousand people."

He Xi said slowly: "On average, one rune construction master will appear among one thousand rune masters."

"This is the threshold for a rune construction master."

"Because, if there are array diagrams to copy for magic arrays, then every set of rune construction will only be created by the rune construction master himself."

"A set of rune construction must ensure that the rune magic arrays on each part can run independently and play a role, and at the same time, when all parts are combined, the runes on them can form a large rune magic array and bring a powerful, unique construction effect."

Sounds a bit like the set effect in rpg online games in the previous life... Gao De secretly said.

"And in fact, most rune masters do not have the ability to create independently. They only know how to imitate, apply, or even copy existing rune diagrams."

"This can allow them to draw magic arrays, but they can never manufacture rune construction."

"Because the situation of every magic user is different, and in order to fit, manufacturing the same rune construction for different magic users, even if the same magic-conducting materials are used, will lead to the need to adjust the runes on the construction due to the different areas."

"Of course, there are also runes that can make the construction adapt to magic users with not much difference in body shape, but because rune construction cannot be mass-produced, in most cases, rune construction is mainly 'private customization'."

"In this case, adaptive design is almost unnecessary and wastes precious rune energy levels, so it is usually not taken into consideration."

"Creativity is the hard condition for a rune construction master." He Xi said a long string of words in one breath, and finally summarized.

Gao De listened silently, and after absorbing it, asked again: "What other conditions are there?"

Just now He Xi started with "First".

"Another condition is that you must master rune manufacturing technology."

"Rune manufacturing technology, what is this?" Gao De couldn't help but ask. In the previous year of rune learning, he had never heard of this term.

"It's what you are doing now." He Xi smiled and signaled the lacquer jade paper in Gao De's hand with his eyes.

Gao De's gaze fell on the lacquer jade paper the size of a fingernail.

He Xi had already begun to explain: "Rune construction is different from magic arrays, possessing huge display space. The construction is finally to be equipped on the magic user, which means the area of each part of the construction is very limited."

"But a powerful magic array inevitably possesses an uncountable number of runes. The more powerful the magic array, the more runes there are."

"Therefore, a rune construction master needs to be able to shrink a powerful magic array with thousands of runes into a very small area. This is rune manufacturing technology."

"The runes on high-rank rune construction will even be so fine that they cannot be seen by the naked eye. This is also the reason why rune construction cannot be mass-produced."

"The level of rune manufacturing technology has the most direct impact on the rank of rune construction."

"And the standard for measuring rune manufacturing technology is the magnitude number. The so-called magnitude number is how many basic runes you can draw on this standard-sized lacquer jade paper."

"A higher rune manufacturing technology magnitude number means higher integration, that is, more runes can be drawn on the same magic-conducting material area, thereby achieving more powerful rune capabilities and higher energy efficiency."

"With the increase of the manufacturing magnitude number, higher precision craftsmanship and higher-grade lithography pens are needed."

"Lithography pen?" Gao De frowned, another brand-new term.

"Actually, it is also a type of rune pen, but 'lithography pen' is a rune pen specifically used to manufacture rune construction. It is a type of rune pen that can convert magic ink into more refined light glue and perform rune drawing on magic-conducting materials in the form of light engraving."

He Xi briefly introduced the "lithography pen" and turned the topic back to the manufacturing magnitude number.

"Every rank of rune construction master has strict requirements for the rune manufacturing magnitude number, from high to low, they are 130, 90, 45, 32, 14, 10, 7, 5. That is to say, an eighth-rank rune construction master can draw a magic array composed of 130 basic runes on such a lacquer jade paper the size of a fingernail."

Gao De thought about the scene and felt terrible.

Is this still human?

Not to mention wanting to draw successfully, even wanting to see clearly is difficult.

"You can completely draw a composite rune composed of five basic runes on a standard-sized lacquer jade paper, which indicates that your manufacturing magnitude number is 5."

"This is already the rune manufacturing technology level of a first-rank rune construction master."

"Now the only thing limiting you from becoming a first-rank rune construction master is your mental power."

"Because you must become a 1st-circle magic user to perform rune tuning for a first-rank magic array." He Xi said slowly.

"Or, wait for you to deduce the interference constant..." Gao De laughed.

"Do you believe my Six Basic Rules of Runes so much? I have told you that this is just a rule I summarized myself, and it is not necessarily correct." He Xi's eyes flickered.

"They look so harmonious, simple and beautiful," Gao De said seriously: "Instructor, there is such a saying, perfection in form often means correctness in theory."

This is the experience of a scientific giant who deduced one of the cornerstone formulas of modern physics in his previous life.

"Perfection in form often means correctness in theory..." He Xi couldn't help but repeat it, and the light in his pupils became more and more magnificent.

"Also, instructor, I am not far from a 1st-circle magic user. I should be able to apply for the share of Soul-Ascension Water from the academy next month, and then try to be promoted to a 1st-circle magic user." Gao De added.

He Xi is his instructor, he can't wait until he becomes a 1st-circle magic user to inform him.

This is not good.

"Hmm?" He Xi was startled by Gao De again.

14 years old, 1st-circle magic user.

In his eyes, this can only be considered a pretty good magic user talent.

But the key is that Gao De's persona in his eyes has always been "rune genius", and has nothing to do with "magic user genius".

The sudden contrast is the reason why He Xi is shocked.

"Very good..." After a long silence, he said slowly, praising with true feelings.

"I have also deduced the interference constant C." Then, He Xi also gave Gao De a little instructor shock.

"1.1299," looking at Gao De who was stunned, He Xi laughed: "But it still needs final verification, and it cannot be confirmed to be correct for the time being."

"Remember this number. If before this, this old bone of mine can't hold on, then this task will have to be handed over to you." He Xi Okenli added such a sentence half-self-deprecatingly and half-seriously.

Gao De didn't know how to answer.

Although He Xi said it very easily, death is always a very heavy thing.

"Don't have pressure, I'm still living well now."

Looking at Gao De who fell into silence, He Xi laughed: "I will strive to complete this task myself. After all, this Six Basic Rules of Runes is the achievement of my life, and I also want to perfect it with my own hands."
