Whispering Poems.

Chapter 24: The Word of Sublimation
"Investigator" or "space-time explorer" is not a special profession of St. Byrons Comprehensive College. The core spiritual rune is related to the concept of [time], or the ring warlock who has obtained the spiritual rune related to [time] can pass the level The fluctuating relic [Time Key] from the poet level (level 5) to the angel level (level 1) travels through time and explores the past before entering the sixth era.

[Time Key] is a one-time relic, and different keys open in different times.All the time keys are related to the fallen old god [Father of the Infinite Tree].

This is an extremely powerful old god, belonging to the camp of good gods, who has access to relevant knowledge and traces, and has a chance to obtain the golden [miracle] spirit rune.According to legends and records of some ancient steles, [Father of the Infinite Tree] fell in the chaotic era of the Fourth Epoch, but he integrated his body into a continuous infinite time and space with the help of his own concept of "infinity" to communicate with the past. and future.

[Time Key] is the [relic] left by the fallen old god, because the fallen old god exists in continuous time and space, so he can use the time jump opened by his relic, and it is not limited to the fall of the [Father of Infinite Tree]. time before the Quaternary.

It's just that I don't know why, so far, I have never found any [time key] that can go back to the past time of the sixth era.

In short, the doctor asked Xia De to draw the two spirit runes, and at the same time passing the news of Xia De's core spirit runes to the academy, he briefly introduced the common sense to him.

Spirit runes belong to the language of the past, and there is basically no repetition.Unless you have seen a spirit rune with the same meaning, you cannot make it up, so you can use this to prove that you are not lying.

But before Xia De asked questions such as "what about time stability" and "will there be a time paradox", the academy's reply came back:

"If Shad Suren Hamilton is willing to join the History Academy, the History Academy is willing to list him as a key training target, and provide him with a secret-keeper-level relic for self-defense after he joins the academy."

"What do you mean?"

Shade looked at the doctor.

"Pay attention to your talent, but it still does not change your status as a correspondence ring warlock. The key training target means that you don't have to complete more mandatory practice credit tasks, and it can be cheaper to buy books in St. Byrons. As for the keeper Level (level 3) relic literally."

The doctor shrugged:

"They're always like that, they're not stingy with the gifted, but they never break the rules."

"Then should I agree?"

"Unless you have a reason for refusing."

The writer replied simply, she picked the blonde hair on the temples:

"There's always something to focus on every year, but I don't think there's any harm in that."

As a result, Shade successfully became a first-year correspondence ring warlock at the School of History, a subsidiary of St. Byrons College.

To become a ring warlock, you need to be exposed to four elements, and the advanced ring warlock also needs four elements.

For each ring, at least one gold [Miracle], one silver [Desecration], one brass [Enlightenment] and one black iron [Whisper] spirit rune must be engraved on the life ring to accumulate enough spirit to complete the sublimation of the number of rings. .

There is an upper limit on the accumulation of spirits in a certain ring, so engraving four spirit runes is no different from engraving four hundred spirit runes and then sublimating.Even engraving too many spiritual runes is bad, because the spiritual runes required for each stage of advancement must be engraved in this stage.

Under normal circumstances, the engraving of spiritual runes is not a simple matter, and it is also very important to correctly balance the contradiction between the number of spiritual runes and one's own thaumaturgy and incantation research.

Warlocks from the first ring to the fourth ring are called low ring warlocks, the fifth ring to the eighth ring is the middle ring, and the nine rings and above are the high ring warlocks.

This division is not because of numbers, but when the fourth ring is sublimated and the eighth ring is sublimated, in addition to the four necessary spiritual runes, it is also required that among all sixteen spiritual runes at this stage, one for each ring is equal to the ring. The Warlock's own core runes form a concatenation of meanings, which are called "Words of Ascension".

In Dr. Schneider's group, only the five-ring doctor himself has completed four sublimations.

When he was promoted from the fourth ring to the fifth ring, he used the black iron whisper-[running] at the first ring, the silver blasphemy-[malicious] at the second ring, the brass enlightenment at the third ring-[hound], and the fourth ring. The golden miracle-[Brightness], and its core rune [Dreamland], construct the language of sublimation from the low ring to the middle ring——

[The Hound of Light runs in a malicious dream. 】

There are no restrictions on the types of runes in the language of sublimation, and the doctor only meets four.

And if you don't meet the conditions of the language of sublimation, you can never be promoted from the fourth ring to the fifth ring, or from the eighth ring to the ninth ring.And because the four spirit runes used are from different four rings, there is no chance to make up.

As for the choice of words of sublimation, past examples can be used to form the [Book of Sublimation] with thousands of records.Ring warlocks search for examples based on their own core runes, and prepare from the beginning of each stage, so each faction regards its own [Book of Ascension] as its most important secret.

In the three stages of low ring, middle ring and high ring, you can use the same core spirit rune to connect words of sublimation.Therefore, the number of core spirit runes is large, but there are more options, and it does not have much impact on the difficulty of advanced.

And if you don't want to use the past experience of "Language of Ascension", or the core spirit rune is really rare, and there is no example to refer to, then you can only try it yourself, and if you are lucky, you can always meet the conditions for sublimation.

However, it would take half a year for Xia De to be eligible to view the Tome of Ascension of St. Byrons and determine the choice of the most important spiritual rune in his first ring.The Academy is also worried about the reliability of the Correspondence Ring Sorcerer, and also makes sure that the Correspondence students who become Transcendents will not go back.Moreover, it is difficult for a ring warlock to advance to the stage, and half a year is not a delay.

Although the number of spirit runes in each ring is not limited, it is quite difficult to obtain spirit runes.In addition to the compulsory credits obtained through the study exams and the practical credits obtained from the tasks of the college, the promotion of the college grade also requires that the grades correspond to the number of rings.

Therefore, it is quite normal for a grade to study for two or three years. If the Spirit Rune String of Ascension Language that was planned in the fourth ring cannot be found, even if the conditions of the four spirit runes are met, people will still postpone the promotion time.

Of course, with regard to the textbooks, the basic course of the ring warlock, the keeper-level relics promised by the History Academy, and the investigator mission of the History Academy, all of these will be discussed after three days after the Academy has sorted out Xia De's textbooks.

At that time, not only will there be the syllabus and training plan given by the college, but all four people in the same group will also be present to give Xia De advice.

So after confirming joining the History Institute, Dr. Schneider announced that Shade could leave.

"Leave now?"

In the last second, Xia De was still memorizing these common sense things, so he asked in surprise.

"What else do you have?"

The doctor also asked in surprise.

"I mean, I joined the academy and I didn't."

Miss Luysha, who was still a woman, understood what he meant:
"Mr. Hamilton, that's really the admission process. I'm going to repeat what the doctor said, please remember that we are correspondence ring warlocks and are not closely related to the academy. We cultivate ourselves, ask for knowledge from the academy, and the academy gives us practice. Assignments to meet credit requirements. We just teach by correspondence.”

"OK then."

Shade, who had been sitting all afternoon, stood up, and the doctor and Miss Writer also got up to bid him farewell.The latter has something to call a doctor today, so he can't leave for the time being.

When Xia De almost came to the door of the room with the two of them, the doctor suddenly said again:

"Also, there are two taboos you need to remember. St. Lawrence Comprehensive College stipulates that all ring warlocks in this academy are forbidden to set foot on the New World, which is a taboo of the academy. The general taboo of ring warlocks is that ring warlocks are forbidden to commit suicide.

Setting foot on the new continent will be considered by the academy to voluntarily give up the student qualifications, and the ring warlock will commit suicide, which will at least cause a crisis no less than the loss of control of a secret-keeper-level relic. "

The "New World" refers to the great geographical discovery 50 years ago. The land discovered outside the current "Old World" is somewhat similar to the great geographical discovery of the previous world.But there are no humans in the New World, but its products are extremely rich.

"why?"

Shade asked in confusion.

"We don't know the rules of the college, as for the prohibition of suicide"

Miss Luyesha looked at the doctor:
"The doctor thinks it's probably something to do with the 'other me' who might do something if we kill ourselves."

The doctor shrugged:

"That's it for the time being, and we haven't met a ring warlock who committed suicide.

Xia De, remember to come over three days later, that is, at ten o'clock in the morning on Wednesday. In addition to the affairs of the college, you also need to know about the regular study meetings in the group, and our fixed school year tasks.Oh, speaking of which, you can study your own spirit runes by yourself these days, and this notebook is lent to you. "

Then I thought of turning to the desk and taking out a black-covered notebook from the locked drawer and stuffing it to Shade, it looked quite old:
"Regarding the development of thaumaturgy with spiritual runes, you can try it yourself first, but it is estimated that it will not go well just after you gain power. Your most important task in these three days is to rest. The inauguration of a ring warlock is harmful to the soul and body. Three You spend your days in bed reading your notes. Tomorrow you'll probably sleep until noon. See you in three days, remember you need to pay back £10 in a month."

Farewell was a bit too sudden, but Xia De knew that he had been interrupting for too long, so he sorted out his chaotic thoughts and said seriously:
"See you in three days, Dr. Schneider, thank you Miss Lucy."

"Don't thank me, I'm just here to witness today."

Miss Writer said, but she seemed to be in a good mood.

"You don't have to thank me either, as I said, I just want to find the No.5 ring warlock for the group."

The blue-eyed doctor looked at Shade and replied very softly.

　PS: The truth of the ring warlock system is related to the worldview of this book. The language of sublimation has a history, and it cannot be spelled out casually.
