Chapter 31 Sequence 1
squeak-
The apartment door opened a crack, and light from the hallway outside crept in through the floor.
Luo Qiu stood outside the door, his eyes fixed on everything inside.
Sofa, coffee table, floor, walls...
After confirming that everything in the apartment was as before, he quietly squeezed in.
Now he can empathize with some of Mr. Bias's experiences. After witnessing the grand spectacle of the concert, he fled back in a panic, almost without thinking.
Standing outside the apartment, he felt as if something was waiting for him inside.
Although rational analysis suggests that his safe return indicates he was not being targeted, I still can't help but let my thoughts wander.
What kind of witchcraft ritual was being performed at today's concert? Is the person manipulating all of this connected to the forces behind the Fog City?
The cell phone didn't contain any witchcraft related to that particular spell. It only stored some spells below the second level, and the most powerful spell among them could only make a wizard's attack comparable to a bullet.
However, based on the effects of the sorcery, Luo Qiu judged that the other party must have used a 'resonance rune'.
Resonance Rune: If there are runes with the same frequency as you within a 30-meter radius, then when you condense magic, the resonant point will also condense magic according to the energy intensity of its surroundings.
This is a rather uncommon rune. The only spell that Luo Qiu had ever seen use this rune was a first-level spell called "Echo".
However, the echo requires beacons to be set up in advance, and only a maximum of three can be set up.
What he saw today was that 100,000 people were resonating with the same sentiment.
In addition, he was more than 100 meters away from the center at the time, which means that ordinary resonance runes were not enough, or he used level 3 resonance runes, or other amplification runes.
Such complex witchcraft could not possibly go unnoticed by the forces behind Fog City.
……
Luo Qiu sat down on the sofa.
After calming down, I started thinking about my promotion again.
He had originally planned to approach his promotion to Sequence 1 tonight with a relaxed attitude. Now, although that attitude is gone, the promotion must continue, and even be accelerated.
Right here in this familiar place, I closed my eyes and began to communicate with the Shadowlands.
When~
The bell rang ten times.
When Luo Qiu regained consciousness, he was back in that chaotic space.
Looking down, the round body was still there, and the tentacle-like thing was still there, only much longer.
In addition, some changes occurred that he could not understand.
A crack appeared on the surface of its round body at some point, running from the bottom to the middle, and it was slowly extending upwards.
It was as if some force within was tearing this body apart.
After a moment, the crack reached the top.
The accumulated power inside exploded completely, instantly splitting the round thing in two.
Then, a white pole supports two parasols that unfold.
No, it's less like a parasol and more like two leaves, with the stem being its base and the tendril its root.
Is talent a plant?
……
Luo Qiu opened her eyes again.
At this moment, he has been promoted to Sequence 1.
The sign of advancing to the first tier is awakening a second talent, and his talent is:
Photosynthesis: Increases mana regeneration rate. When mana is fully restored and remains so for a period of time, it increases the current maximum mana. The rate of increase adapts to the surrounding energy density.
Would it be good to have a talent that can help automatically cultivate mana?
Luo Qiu felt both amused and exasperated.
While AFK training is tempting, what about his combat power?
With so many powerful figures in Chongqing, what's the use of just being fast at cultivation?
While browsing information about "cell phones," I noticed that other people's talents were related to animals like wolves, bats, and deer. Some of these talents could increase magical bursts, some could increase casting speed, and some could even increase evasion, all of which could improve combat power.
When it was his turn, he fully expected his talent to be something like a tentacle monster, but it turned out to be a plant.
In that case, it's highly likely that any subsequent awakening of talents will be unrelated to attack methods.
It took Luo Qiu quite a while to accept his talent setting.
Pick up your phone and habitually open the self-check function.
Search Target: 0002
[Mental Strength: 20.3 (20 for a first-ring wizard, 40 for a second-ring wizard)]
[Mana Points: 45/45]
[Talent Data: Unknown]
My mana increased from 34 to 45, a benefit of the promotion.
His mental strength increased by 0.1. Originally, after absorbing that gem, his mental strength was 20.2.
However, that's not the main point.
After reviewing the data, Luo Qiu opened the rune magic program on the 'phone'.
After advancing to Sequence 1, the number of runes that could be linked doubled, and the number of runes that could be inscribed also increased from 20 to 40. However, because he advanced too quickly, he only mastered 4 runes.
He should choose some witchcraft to increase his means of survival.
法师护甲（1环）：坚韧符文+附着符文+统合构型符文。在体表形成一层无形的护盾，能抵挡0环攻击法术x4，1环攻击法术x1。
Arc Lightning (1st Ring): Lightning Element Rune + Load Enhancement Rune + Guiding Rune. Summons an arc of electricity to attack the target, locking onto it within a 10-meter radius and attacking in a directional manner beyond 10 meters. Its destructive power is consumed when it encounters iron elements.
Lightness of Body (1st Ring): Level 2 Gravity Reduction Rune + Attachment Rune. Reduces body weight, increases jump height and landing cushioning; works even better when used in conjunction with Swiftness.
……
Luo Qiu first ruled out the possibility of electric arc therapy.
Other offensive spells are also excluded.
Since there are no attack-boosting talents, then don't consider fighting first.
After a moment's hesitation, Luo Qiu temporarily abandoned the mage armor.
Defensive spells are not very cost-effective without the support of defensive talents. Others can easily break through with just an offensive spell and a talent boost.
Therefore, defense should be put aside. The first thing to practice should be magic that can help him escape, scout the environment, or reduce his presence.
The Lightness skill is good, and according to the description, it can be upgraded to Levitation when you reach the second ring.
In addition:
Silence (1st Ring): Sound Absorption Rune + Attachment Rune + Wind Element Rune. Reduces the volume of your own voice; spoken voice is not counted.
Dynamic Perception (Ring 1): Frequency Gain Rune + Range Configuration Rune + Light Perception Gain Rune + Attachment Rune. Enables dynamic perception of surrounding changes and predicts the trajectory of moving objects within 1 second.
There are many useful level 1 support spells.
In addition to these, there are also products that can enhance the sense of smell, increase finger dexterity, and even help with holding your breath underwater.
However, Luo Qiu wasn't prepared to learn too much. At his cultivation speed, he might advance to Sequence 2 in three months. By then, even better witchcraft would naturally await him.
Furthermore, looking at the trend of fusion in witchcraft, from speed to lightness to levitation, it is clearly a flight system, while sound, light, and breath will involve regional perception.
His choice of runes should also follow these systems.
