Chapter 23: Time Traveler

At the moment the destiny ring was formed, consciousness seemed to fly to high altitude like a dream again, seeing the whole world, touching the veins of the world. Compared to the individual soul, the vast world was incomparably profound, incomparably terrible, incomparably vast...

It's just that before seeing anything, it immediately returned to the body, making Xia De, who was sitting on the sofa, realize what he was doing.

There was no need to look back again, the meanings of the two spirit runes were automatically known. These two runes represented the soul's characteristics and the world's recognition of existence, which would not lie.

"The core rune located in the very center of the destiny ring can only be a brass-colored 【Enlightenment】 rune, at least for ordinary humans, because the most powerful power of humans is civilization, and they are actually not special themselves."

"But believers favored by gods, according to the camp of the gods, may obtain golden 【Miracle】 and silver 【Profanity】 core spirit runes when taking office. Those people are usually called the chosen ones of gods or holy sons; and by becoming a Ringed Shushi through some special imperfect taking-office process, with the help of the power of 【Relics】, it is possible to obtain black-iron 【Whisper】 spirit runes, but this has a huge hidden danger to the soul."

The doctor explained, his low and slow voice gradually pulling Xia De back to reality.

Because Xia De finished taking office, Miss Louisa regained the qualification to speak, so she also added:

"Of course, there are other exceptions, such as the power left by ancestors, but this has nothing to do with us ordinary people."

Xia De nodded. Seeing him looking at the two, Dr. Shi Nai De signaled Xia De to drink tea:

"Your complexion is very bad, which is also normal. Destiny ring casting is the deformation of the soul, and pain is very normal. This requires a few days of rest to alleviate. I didn't feel anything at the time, but I was in pain that night and couldn't sleep, as if someone was hitting a gas pipe in my head."

Although Xia De didn't feel that his state was bad, he still picked up the teacup according to the doctor's instructions, letting the slightly hot steam puff on his face:

"Then Mr. Shi Nai De, Miss Louisa, the number of core runes..."

Because of the voice in his brain, the outsider did not dare to easily determine that he was normal, so he did not dare to determine the normal number of core spirit runes.

Xia De was trying to suppress the joy of successfully coming into contact with the mysterious at this moment, but he maintained the most basic rationality and vigilance. He had already gained trust and could not show his abnormality.

The doctor showed an expression of "you would indeed ask this":

"Core spirit runes are generally within three, but according to the Academy's data, more than 80% are two. After all, a soul cannot have only one prominent characteristic, but there are also unusual situations. The highest record was around the 306th year of the Common Calendar in the early Sixth Era, when the Zalas School of Literature appeared a Ringed Shushi with 7 core spirit runes."

Xia De didn't need to disguise this time; he really showed a surprised expression:

"What Ringed Shushi did he eventually become?"

The blonde writer lady shrugged:

"I don't know, this person is just a small character in history, and even his accurate name was not recorded. Oh, I know what you mean, but the number of core runes has no great relationship with the level of achievement. The doctor is a common situation..."

So the doctor showed his complete destiny ring again. In the center were two brass-colored spirit runes 【Light of Mind】 【Dream】.

"I will translate it. This is Dream and Light of Mind. Generally speaking, the simpler the concept, the easier it is to interpret multiple meanings, develop and create all-around wonders, and the more powerful it is. So personally, 【Dream】 is stronger."

Because spirit runes use non-contemporary languages, the doctor translated it. He didn't know that Xia De interpreted the runes at a glance.

"I am three, but it is not very special."

Saying this, a white steam fog also floated behind Miss Louisa. Accompanied by the hammer strike, a rotating brass-colored ring with a square cross-section appeared, on which were three core spirit runes 【Writer】 【Play】 【Another Princess】.

She explained the meaning of the three core spirit runes and believed that "Writer" was the core rune she used best, which matched her writer profession. Miss Louisa specializes in the brass-colored 【Enlightenment】 element and is good at finding power in stories and legends.

"The language used by spirit runes is the language of the past era. If you cannot find a translation method, you can only ask the owner of the spirit rune, and the owner automatically understands the meaning of the rune. Then Xia De, what about your spirit runes?"

The doctor and the writer actively showed their power, actually also having the meaning of letting Xia De be at ease and not having to hide. After all, core spirit runes are related to the Academy and professional academy issues after enrollment.

"Time-Space, Silver Moon."

Xia De thought for a while, thinking there was no need to hide this. After the two words were spoken, he really saw the surprised expressions of Dr. Shi Nai De and Miss Louisa. He couldn't say that he was slightly proud of this, but at least he had the emotion of being happy because of this in his heart.

"Both are quite broad concepts, this is very good... Regarding the wonder of 【Silver Moon】, the Academy has recorded a lot, and 【Silver Moon】 is also very easy to develop various new wonders. This spirit rune is quite rare, but not off-beat. 【Time-Space】... Are you sure it is 【Time-Space】 and not 【Time】 or 【Space】?"

The doctor stretched his neck to confirm.

"Sure."

Xia De nodded. Although he didn't encounter the plot of blowing up the test crystal ball because of his high talent, his talent was obviously not that ordinary one. Xia De controlled his emotions, showing just the right curiosity, rather than deeper thinking. These two core spirit runes seemed to have some coincidence.

Especially 【Silver Moon】.

"Don't laugh."

He said in his heart.

"【Time-Space】 has never appeared?"

Asking in his mouth, the doctor and the writer lady looked at each other, and the latter explained:

"Of course it has appeared, but it is quite rare, abnormally rare. The individual cases recorded with this kind of core rune, even if all added together, do not exceed five. And Ringed Shushi who obtained 【Time-Space】 spirit runes after taking office by coming into contact with mystery and knowledge of the past, there are probably no more than 100 in history."

The doctor looked at Xia De hesitantly:

"If it were only 【Silver Moon】, we would suggest you join the Mathematics Academy; you might therefore become a wonder expert and spell master. But since it is 【Time-Space】, you will definitely choose the History Academy, become a member of the investigator, join the time exploration team, and go to explore those secrets of the past."

"Even if I don't recommend it, the professors of the History Academy will definitely not let you join other academies. There is no one more suitable for this profession than 【Time-Space】. Walking into the time of the past, you will face more dangers, but you will also know more secrets... secrets about the fallen Old Gods." ===== CHAPTER 24 =====
