It really is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the trace of blue and white flame, Beduo jumped up with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly turned and ran into the inner room, took out the Sea Pattern Magic Iron Fish Spear, and placed it inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Luo De saw the Fish Spear gradually turn orange-red, with traces of blue patterns on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally softened it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beduo’s hands began to tremble, he looked at Luo De excitedly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rest assured, Lord, leave it to me this time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beduo confidently assured, \"I’m sure I can complete it this time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded calmly, no longer disturbing Beduo, and immediately left the Blacksmith Shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, reforging was a time-consuming task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Beduo succeeded this time, Luo De planned to throw the remaining Fish Spears into the blast furnace for remelting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De returned to the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril was organizing teaching materials in the old wooden house, while Vivian and Milly were fighting over a jar of honey nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s enough, can’t you let Milly have some?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De said helplessly, \"She’s still a child.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the time of my birth, I’m still a child too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian retorted indignantly, \"Besides, this jar was given to me by Sis, but she eats more than I do!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De sighed, ignoring these two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was about to hug Avril to relax for a moment, a guard rode a horse, rushing into the manor with urgency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord, I’ve brought back what you asked for!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Few inside Frost Leaf Town could ride like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De naturally recognized this guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—The one sent to liaise with the Dawn Society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard jogged up to Luo De, presented the package to him, and said slightly panting, \"The Dawn Society sent this for you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De looked at him and smiled slightly, \"Thank you for your hard work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving the bag, Luo De immediately opened it, revealing an exquisite wooden box inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening the wooden box, a handmade thick booklet lay inside, labeled \"Sea Race Text Manual.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very good, yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded with satisfaction, then told the guard, \"Go take a rest, I’m giving you two days off.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for your generosity, my Lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard bowed respectfully and withdrew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De immediately returned to the manor’s study, eagerly beginning to study this \"Sea Race Text Manual.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This manual was made with Luo De’s new paper, clearly newly crafted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the content was very detailed, with thousands of characters corresponding one-to-one with the Empire’s language.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De immediately took out the four tomes he collected from the seabed to match one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sea Race Rune Scripture Foundation\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Three Thousand Years of Deep Sea Epic\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Apprentice Comprehensive Basic Disciplines\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Silent Heart Chamber\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems that except for the last one, all are quite valuable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De murmured to himself, but he did not rush to flip through these texts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without knowing the characters, opening them would be useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De placed the tomes carefully back, then took three sheets of draft paper from the cabinet and spread them on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These sheets were filled with various intricate patterns, which could be pieced together in order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—All traced from the ruins’ gate, and they seemed to be Sea Pattern Race characters too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De focused on the patterns above, then referred to the manual to search for corresponding content.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found most of the characters, learning from the small print that more of them were witchcraft runes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De immediately opened the \"Sea Race Rune Scripture Foundation\" to find corresponding rune diagrams inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kept busy from day till deep into the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This pace continued for two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De finally found all the runes within the texts and deciphered their meanings when combined on the gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A total of nine different runes formed together to create the most common rune restriction used by Sea Race Wizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the rune restriction is unlocked, the ruins’ gate can be opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This restriction is very simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De just needs to inject energy into the nine runes in a specific order to activate and lift it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put, it’s like a nine-digit combination lock from his past life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh my god.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De felt like he was going insane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Activation of nine runes sequentially, calculated by permutations, isn’t that hundreds of thousands of combinations?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De made a simple calculation and sat down on the chair, somewhat disheartened.\u003C\u002Fp>",968,"2026-05-30T15:19:45.195Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","1d0f58a1df69c5b12e1a72131efd00b77062f06d173bcf011a2dd23c3d9535c9","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-174","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-172",776,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffarming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-cover.jpg"]
