Chapter 97 Rune Evolution
Gusu City.
Bai Qi's family.
Secret Realm.
A dozen skeleton soldiers were neatly arranged in a row, motionless, only the beating soul fire in their eye sockets proved that they were not sculptures.
"It's no wonder that the Federation attaches more importance to the natural disaster of the undead than other disasters. The suppression effect of the high-level undead on the low-level undead is really too big."
Looking at the well-behaved skeleton soldiers who look like little white rabbits under the Alpha deterrence skill, Bai Qi also formally understands the clear class gap between undead creatures.
"Fortunately, Alpha realized deterrence before the battle with Zhang Kai, otherwise it might not be the opponent of the dead violent ape."
Bai Qi felt a little lucky, then put on his rune glasses, and walked towards the first skeleton soldier with a rune carving knife.
"Shu Ke, you are responsible for counting the experimental data, Alpha, remember to suppress these guys."
On the day he returned to Gusu City, President Qin sent fifteen skeleton soldiers, and asked Bai Qi to start tormenting himself first. Bai Qi was also happy to have free experimental products, so he accepted them all without hesitation. .
"Then, let's try the first set of runes first."
Bai Qi pushed his glasses, picked up a carving knife, and carved on the body of a skeleton soldier.
Compared with Chi Yantie, the bones of the skeleton soldiers are obviously much weaker, and Bai Qi hardly feels much resistance.
However, Bai Qi also noticed that when he was carving with the carving knife, his mental power unconsciously flowed into the runes along the carving knife.
"In addition to the energy of the beast, can the spiritual power of the beast master also be used as energy?"
Bai Qi vaguely guessed, but because he was so distracted, his hand movements were a little heavier, and the runes that had been drawn to the general level were completely scrapped.
Sure enough, engraving runes is a meticulous job, and only Alpha, who can concentrate on nothing else, can spend all day engraving there.
Bai Qi breathed out, calmed down and re-carved.
There was no problem this time, and a brand new rune was quickly formed in Bai Qi's hands.
"Yeah, flowing clouds and flowing water, like a master."
Looking at the first work in his hands, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction.
"Universal Rune: Hardening, Similarity: 67%, Beast Master, you still need to work hard."
Just when Bai Qi was satisfied with himself, Shu Ke's cold electronic voice suddenly sounded, directly pulling Bai Qi back to reality.
"Tsk... Mechanic life is not good enough, not sensible enough."
Bai Qi smacked his lips, glared at Shu Ke with some disgust, then looked at Alpha, and said, "Alpha, let it guide the energy to activate the runes."
Gala Gala.
(OK.)
Alpha nodded, walked in front of the skeleton soldier, the fire of soul flashed in his eyes, the skeleton soldier just shook his head, looked at the rune on his arm with some doubts, and then made no further moves .
Gala Gala.
(Master, it doesn't seem to understand your command.)
Bai Qi was silent when he heard the words, this skeleton soldier's intelligence is too low, can't he even guide the energy value?
Looking at it this way, Alpha is quite witty.
It’s usually a little boring.
"Forget it, Alpha will activate it for you."
Bai Qi sighed helplessly, walked aside and let Alpha activate instead.
Alpha nodded, grabbed the skeleton soldier's arm, and carefully injected a ray of energy, the hardened runes immediately lit up, and a faint light gradually shrouded the skeleton soldier's arm.
This is almost exactly the same as the hardening skill of the beast.
"Shu Ke, test the effect of hardening, and record the maintenance time."
Bai Qi asked Alpha to release the energy transmission, and at the same time asked Shuke to step forward. After a while of beating, Shuke quickly gave feedback.
"The effect is basically similar to the hardening skill, but the strength is very low. If the beast master can achieve a 100% similarity, it should be able to improve the effect of entry-level proficiency."
Is it entry-level proficiency?
Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Hardening is a general skill, and many pets can master it through training. If it only has the effect of entry-level proficiency, it will be a bit tasteless.
"Forget it, at least it proves that runes can be popularized on skeleton creatures."
Bai Qi comforted himself, and then began to try the second rune.
This time, in order to avoid the embarrassing scene before, Bai Qi contacted the wooden board several times in advance, and only started to write after confirming that there was no problem.
"Shadow Rune: Concealment, the similarity is 89%, the similarity is extremely high, congratulations to the beastmaster."
Hearing Shu Ke's praise, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, and then signaled Alpha again to step forward to activate.
boom!
The moment Alpha injected his energy into the hidden rune, the bones of the skeleton soldier's body immediately cracked, and then directly exploded into countless pieces.
Gala Gala.
(Boss, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.)
"It's okay, there should be a problem elsewhere."
Alpha's energy control accuracy is not bad, and there will be no excessive energy value. The so-called problem should be on the runes.
Bai Qi patted Alpha on the head, looked at the debris all over the floor and pondered for a moment, came to another skeleton soldier, and carved another hidden rune.
"Alpha, try again."
Alpha nodded, carefully injecting energy into the skeleton.
This time, the skeleton did not explode again, and its figure gradually merged with the surrounding shadows.
It is not a problem of the attributes of the runes themselves, so it can only be a problem of the number of runes.
Bai Qi took out the carving knife to carve hardened runes on the second skeleton again, and then let Alpha activate.
Sure enough, the skeleton soldier was blown to pieces.
"Can only bear one rune? No, it should be only one kind of rune at the same time, and it should also be related to the level."
Alpha has used many runes in actual combat before, and in the battle with Gushan, four bone cages were engraved with blasting runes. If it was just a simple quantity limit, Alpha would have exploded long ago.
But in this way, Alpha also needs to pay attention when using runes in the future.
Thinking of this, Bai Qi recruited two skeleton soldiers to try again, and the result was as he expected. The skeleton soldiers can only bear one kind of rune, and if they exceed one kind, they will cause unbearable damage to themselves.
However, if the growth level and bloodline level are improved, the amount of endurance should be increased, and Alpha is the best proof.
"Finally, I have discovered something, but it's a bit expensive."
Four skeleton soldiers were used up in ten minutes, and Bai Qi seriously doubted that these skeleton soldiers would not be able to sustain himself for lunch.
"Let's try to see if runes with other attributes can take effect."
Looking at the remaining eleven skeleton soldiers, Bai Qi temporarily put down his attempts at shadow-type runes, and began to turn to runes of other attributes.
"Let's try ice attribute runes first."
Bai Qi chose among the runes provided by the Rubik's Cube, and finally chose a relatively simple ice-type rune: low temperature.
Bai Qi tried this rune, and it can lower the temperature within a certain range. As for the effect, it can barely be used as an air conditioner.
Carved several runes in a row, and Bai Qi obviously got his hands on the way. The speed and quality of the carvings improved a lot, and soon the ice-type runes were carved on various positions of the skeleton soldiers.
"Alpha, this time try to see how much the skeleton soldiers can withstand."
Alpha nodded, the blue ice energy spread along the fingers to the skeleton soldier, lighting up the first rune, then the second, and the third...
Soon, the runes all over the skeleton soldier's body were lit up, and a cold air began to escape from the originally ordinary skeleton soldier.
It's done!
Seeing that the skeleton soldier successfully demonstrated the ability of the ice attribute, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction.
Originally, he was worried that the skeleton soldiers would not be able to activate the ice runes without the ice ability like Alpha, but now it seems that he thought too much.
Gala Gala.
(Master, this skeleton soldier seems to be actively absorbing my energy, should I interrupt it?)
Just when Bai Qi was about to further try high-level ice runes, Alpha suddenly sent a message.
"Actively absorb your energy? Will this thing backfire?"
Bai Qi frowned slightly, and was about to ask Alpha to stop the energy supply, but Shu Ke suddenly stopped him.
"The energy of the skeleton soldier is very stable, and it seems that some kind of change is taking place. I suggest that you, the beast master, wait and see."
Shu Ke's mental power swept across the skeleton soldiers, and immediately grasped the skeleton soldiers' situation, and then dropped a graph of the energy value changes of the skeleton soldiers in the air.
"The equipment on my body is still too crude to monitor more detailed data. It is recommended that the beast master hurry up and buy materials. I need to upgrade it."
"oh…"
Bai Qi nodded a little numbly, suddenly feeling a little uncomfortable.
Who is the beast master here...
Soon, the skeleton soldier stopped absorbing the alpha energy, and an ice-blue energy slowly seeped out from the rune, gradually covering the skeleton soldier's body, and the temperature around the skeleton soldier also dropped rapidly.
If it was just the fresh-keeping layer of the refrigerator before, it should reach the freezing layer now.
Click.
The frost dissipated, revealing the figure of the skeleton soldier, but the whole body was no longer the pale white before, but turned into a light blue, and the previously carved runes disappeared.
Looking at the skeleton soldiers in front of him who were constantly exhaling cold air, Bai Qi was a little surprised, and Shu Ke also gave the current data of the skeleton soldiers in a timely manner.
【Name】: Ice Bone
[Attributes]: Ice, Undead
【Bloodline Level】: Medium Servant
[Introduction]: The undead born in the frost can attack with the power of freezing.
"This is, evolved?"
Seeing the data given by Shu Ke, Bai Qi couldn't help but exclaimed.
Runes can actually promote the evolution of skeleton soldiers?
