practical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, the [Yarden Rune], originally used for sealing and manifestation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enemies within the magic array of the seal will slow down, and demon spirits will transform from apparitions into entities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Wolf School’s materials, this variant allows the [Yarden Rune] to carry magical lightning attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People entering the array will suddenly be struck by magical lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Igni Rune] can transform in Geralt’s hand into a high-temperature spark cannon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These functionalities were prepared as multipurpose skills by the warlocks who pioneered the mutation process of demon hunters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, Lann’s progress is starting to approach the fields truly feared and shunned by Vesemir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The lifelong research crystallization of Alzur.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann’s fingers skimmed across the bookshelf beside him, filled with rows of knowledge from the most outstanding wizards and researchers of the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could even be said not just from the ’past’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic, thrives and falters in its ability to develop leapfrogging leaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leapfrogging development cannot lay a vast and solid foundation like technology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a technological society, even if the top-notch researchers unexpectedly die, the knowledge they leave behind remains understandable to many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because, throughout their research, they inevitably leave experimental data and communicate with industrial systems that can realize their ideas, leaving explanations and thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, successors can push technology forward, even if it’s challenging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And magic?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leapfrogging development, the death of a leading figure abruptly returns the magic realm to the starting point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, even the alchemical knowledge of demon hunters has become intriguing to external wizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet these things are already ’old antiques’ from hundreds of years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Alzur’s famous spells, [Alzur Thunder Strike Technique], [Alzur’s Shield] not only haven’t seen reduced casting requirements, becoming more widespread with time’s development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, they’ve become thresholds for high-tier warlocks to demonstrate their identity and talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They even wish to add two segments of sonnets into the incantations to highlight elegance and flair, while encrypting the correct spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Lann is immersed in the knowledge and concepts of Alzur, his teacher — Cosimo Malaspina, his pupil and student — Uliv the Adalan, these talented wizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann cannot say that these people’s character was flawless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, their experiments killed many people, due to their uncontrollable curiosity and exploration desire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the creation of the mutation process for demon hunters, these three successively created numerous fierce monsters that didn’t originally exist in the natural world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chimera was a hybrid beast created by Cosimo Malaspina, combining genes from the deer-headed demon and griffon, then adding insect-like creatures and pterosaur characteristics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Koshchei Monster arose from the cooperation between Alzur and Maraspina, a massive, tenacious insect-like creature, strong enough to be used as siege equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gifted Adalan in mutation and hybridization independently created his creation, the Ada Monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These creatures later spilled into the external world, becoming terrors surpassing ordinary monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, they wanted to create demon hunters to protect humans from monster harm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, though successful, uncontrollable curiosity created more terrifying monsters during the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was probably the origin of rumors like ’demon hunters fearing idleness, so simply creating monsters themselves to release’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Lann’s current perspective, he’s temporarily shielded from moral evaluations of these people, focusing on the wisdom and knowledge they developed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The lifelong research crystallization of Alzur.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann put the last book back on the shelf, just scanned into memory by Mentos, repeating it muttering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"[Multiple Triangle] and [Cross]...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Alzur’s Cross], the renowned mage Alzur shook the world, also infamous magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this magic, he quelled the historic ’Endless War’ in Temeria’s succession war, forcing Duke Elrand to acknowledge Duke of Maribor’s control over Temeria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet after the war ended, for unknown reasons, summoned the Saliva Demon in Maribo, and then the gigantic Centipede Monster crushed half a city, disappearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alzur himself died in that conflict.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People thought the so-called [Alzur Cross] was just a monster summoning technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Alzur was too strong, the spell too perfect, thus capable of finding, binding, enslaving creatures like the Saliva Demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if what Lann thinks is correct, if he’s accurately deduced Alzur’s experimental approach from the handnotes on the bookshelf, then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, actually, the unknown [Alzur’s Multiple Triangle] is the key subsidiary spell supporting the [Alzur’s Cross], sir.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mentos agreed with the primary subject’s hypothesis in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Multiple Triangle], a spell result Alzur did not disseminate, hence little known.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Lann’s conjecture, this magic would trigger a chain of biological mutations in ordinary creatures, significantly enhancing physiological structures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to discovering clues in some obscure phrases within Koshchei and Ada Monster’s creation process records.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mages to ensure exclusive knowledge often use arcane language, codes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before abundant materials and Mentos’s computing power, these arcane languages, codes seemed as thin as gauze, one poke revealing it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Codes evolving become ’cryptography’, and the key to cryptography... lies in computing power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, these are merely arcane codes, barely worthy as ’codes’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"[Multiple Triangle] changed original biological traits, transforming ordinary creatures into monsters. Whereas [Cross] represented Alzur’s extraordinary control.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann and Mentos both began rapid cognitive processing, even now Lann’s body made his forehead sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such circumstances, Lann’s eyes became brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"[Cross] is the master control system! It consolidates results from countless [Multiple Triangle] applications, then imposes contracts, positioning, summoning, directed induction...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put, [Alzur’s Multiple Triangle] uses a large and easily proliferating base of insect-like organisms, mutates ordinary creatures presenting attributes valued and recognized by Alzur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whereas [Alzur’s Cross] unifies these characteristics, applying directed mutation induction. Upon success, imposing magical constraints and summoning targeting on the creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That Saliva Demon wasn’t simply summoned, or rather, it existed in some otherworld before, then was magically summoned. However...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann and Mentos’ thinking slowed down, having streamlined their thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That Saliva Demon was merely raised in another world, essentially created by Alzur!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The challenge of [Alzur’s Cross] isn’t ’summoning’ but ’creating’!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Alzur summoned was the monster he created.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other mages merely incanting the simplest summoning spells were useless?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, one task progress bar created by Mentos under Lann’s command suddenly leaped forward significantly!\u003C\u002Fp>",1022,"2026-06-06T10:40:27.274Z",1,"novelbin.me","a468f2867e66818fe0bcef3ac2cd45f20818a28a6372a7c05447649c9ec4f696","bear-school-astartes-chapter-878","bear-school-astartes-chapter-822",1043,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbear-school-astartes-cover.jpg"]
