Enlightenment runes in American manga

Chapter 104 You Rune Phantom, Just Like Me When You Were Young (3000 words short)
What does "Rune Ritual" mean? Of course, Curen knows that his system, which was extremely incomplete at the beginning, has grown into the current system after being strengthened by the Rune Ritual.

But now a (pseudo) is added at the end, which makes Curran unable to determine its effect.

So he directly asked the system to explain it in more detail.

This time, after the system received Curen's idea, it made him wait for an extremely long time.

What's going on, Curran frowned.

Then, a ridiculous idea appeared in his mind that made him feel extremely possible. The system wouldn't be thinking about how to make up a story to deceive him, would it?

As if sensing Curran's questioning, a reminder was instantly issued by the system.

But I don't know if it's his illusion, the process of this system prompt always gives him a weird feeling.

And when Curran read it carefully, that feeling deepened.

[Rune Sacrifice: Sacrifice the stolen items directly to the world rune without being held by the host, and get his rewards according to the quality of the sacrifice]

[Rune Sacrifice (False): Sacrifice the stolen item directly to the world Rune Phantom without holding it, and get his reward according to the quality of the sacrifice]

Oh, there must be a problem!

Ke Lun has studied the phantom runes that exist in the form of a system on his body many times, and he knows how powerful it is.

Maybe it can help him cover up all the investigations, interfere with all divinations and prophecies, and prevent him from being discovered by the bosses of the Marvel world as a time traveler.

But when it comes to submitting stolen items, which involves the material exchange between the two worlds, Rune Phantom is absolutely incapable of doing it alone.

It only participated in the process of trading between Curen and the world's rune text.

So, the rune phantom on his body must be playing some tricks on him!

Curran's resolute disbelief seemed to discourage the system.

In the end, it reluctantly returned to the original rune phantom state, and flew out of Curen's body unsteadily.

Then, start communicating with Curran with your thoughts.

And Ke Lun, who witnessed all this, had a guess in his heart that had been born a long time ago, but had not been confirmed until it was finally confirmed.

The system, no, is the rune phantom. After a period of growth, it has been upgraded from the original level of mental retardation to possess intelligence.

Recently, he feels that the system is becoming more and more anthropomorphic, which is not an illusion.

But whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, Curran can't be sure for the time being, and can only evaluate it from the "rune sacrifice (pseudo)" first.

It seems to be because there is a very strong obsession with opening the so-called "rune sacrifice (pseudo)".

In the past, he ignored Ke Lun's inquiries, but once he mentioned the world's rune ability, it was a system that directly hid himself from the gods. This time, he had a question and answer with Ke Lun obediently.

And he finally took this opportunity to fully understand why in the normal mode, World Rune only accepts stolen items, and requires him to hold them for varying lengths of time according to the rarity of the items before collecting them into the system space.

All this is to prevent the original power of the Marvel world from discovering that there is an existence in the outer domain analyzing the laws of its own world.

Under the cover of the rune phantom, Curran's trajectory will not truly appear in Marvel's timeline.

But this does not mean that he can do whatever he wants, because the people, things and things around him are still in the record of time.

Therefore, directly sacrificing the items belonging to Curen to the world rune may not be noticed for a short time.

But after a long time, he will be discovered in the end, and a large amount of traces of matter and energy have entered the end of fate on him.

But by stealing it is different.

During the time after the item is held, the rune phantom will continue to silently erase all traces of the item from its creation to its final demise in an extremely gentle way, and then sacrifice it to world runes.

And this is reflected in the observation of the world line that there has never been an intersection between Curen's action trajectory and this item.

Even if its strange annihilation is discovered, it will only be traced back to its original owner, and has nothing to do with Curen.

As for why stealing items through combat can be accomplished overnight.

Rune Phantom also gave an explanation. Most of the time, it will choose things that lack objective entities such as memory, bloodline, and superpowers as the objects of theft.

The disappearance of this type of item will not have obvious fluctuations in the material origin of the Marvel world.

And after submitting to the world rune, it can be exchanged for similar heroic abilities, which is very easy to deceive the will of the world and its spokespersons and guardians.

Knowing this, although Curen won't gain any strength, it undoubtedly made him feel more at ease about his situation.

As a traveler and with a golden finger from another world, Curran is so greedy and eager for power, probably because he understands that he is completely an object that needs to be eliminated for the Marvel world.

And how much support the world runes can give him may be the biggest reason to determine whether he can survive.

Although from the lottery draw before, Curran can already feel that the world rune is very important to his life.

But now that he really understands the heavy protection he received in the whole transaction process, Curran is still relieved.

Silently rejoicing in his heart, although the world rune threw himself into the Marvel world without his consent, it finally didn't let him fend for himself, and the protection he should have is still complete.

But when he came back to his senses, Ke Lun watched as he kept circling around him, and abruptly used simple body language to perform a phantom rune full of dog licking, and asked the last question in his heart:

"The world rune is strong enough to open the special mode of rune sacrifice, and the item will be taken away without me holding it."

"But does your rune phantom have this ability? Don't let that pirated rune sacrifice kill me! Don't do it!"

Hearing Ke Lun's refusal, the little licking dog finally had no choice but to confess its plan to Ke Lun.

After receiving the idea of ​​the rune phantom, Curen's mood became a little unclear.

It turns out that the rune phantom also inherits the characteristic that the ontology can become infinitely stronger by analyzing the rules of the item.

But before, under the constraints of the ontology, it was ignorant and only concentrated on acting as a transit tool between Curen and the world runes. It never thought about trying to analyze the rules and strengthen itself.

However, in the many transactions, the self-awareness of Rune Phantom gradually awakened, and under the influence of the host Ke Lun, he also began to have the idea of ​​chasing power and eager to become stronger.

So this time, seeing the huge amount of stolen items in front of it, it couldn't help but came up with a dishonorable plan.

The body of the rune is in a different world. It has the ability and necessity to process the stolen items for a long time, and then transfer the material across the world.

As for the rune phantom, because it is already in the Marvel world, it can actually skip the stage of the host holding it.

After all, it directly analyzes the rules of the item, and will not make the matter disappear from the world.

Perhaps the process may have a slight structural impact on the item, but it is less likely to be discovered than the lack of physical existence such as stealing memories, bloodlines, and superpowers.

Of course, because it needs to pass through the system space, the world rune will definitely notice that its phantom has collected the item, and then ask it to trade it to itself.

In order to escape this restriction, Rune Phantom also came up with a solution.

That is to lie about the level of the item.

Under normal conditions, World Rune completely uses the existing simple logic to manage its phantom.

Through the processing time of the phantom on the stolen items, it can judge the level of the item, and then wait for the sacrifice from the phantom, and return the equivalent reward to Ke Lun.

But now, because the item processing time is shortened to almost no, so in the cognition of the world runes, his phantom has only collected some items of low value.

Therefore, Xuying can use the system space to collect high-rarity items, and then dedicate a very small part of them to the world runes, and analyze the rest by himself.

After that, the analyzed items are taken out of the space and put back in place.

After this set of procedures, no matter whether it is the original power in the Marvel world or the world runes, they will not be aware of it in the slightest.

Only the rune phantom obtained the powerful power after parsing the rules.

Hey, where did you guys learn this shoddy, embezzlement skill?

Seeing the rune phantom that kept approaching him, with a stronger smell of dog licking, Ke Lun was speechless for a long time, and finally said:
"You rune phantom, you were just like me when you were young, smart!"

After listening to Ke Lun's words of praise, the little licking dog flew faster beside him, as if he felt that Ke Lun would agree to it in the next second.

But unexpectedly, what Curran spit out was:
"Not enough reason!"

"You're smart, and I'm not stupid as a host. To steal a purple item, I should have exchanged it for a few pieces of Enlightenment Radiance from the World Rune, but when I hand it over to you, I can only exchange for decimal points of the value of the white item."

"You benefit alone, we suffer from three parties, bastard!"

Facing Ke Lun's refusal, the rune phantom who was deeply affected by it immediately recognized the meaning of his words.

After that, it split a small ray of light into Curen's body to re-transform into the system, and gave a series of reminders:

[Upgrade Reward 1: The holding time of stolen items is reduced]

[Upgrade reward 2: The frequency of triggering the "stealing" effect in battle increases, and the probability of obtaining high-rarity items increases]

[Upgrade Reward 3: Open the hero optional module, open the equipment blueprint optional module]

[Upgrade reward 4: Phantom's intelligence is improved, the attachment to the main body is reduced, and the loyalty to the host is increased]

[Explanation: While phantom is analyzing the rules, the host's normal item stealing will not be affected]

After reading the system's long list of prompts one by one, Curen has actually been convinced by Xu Ying. After all, there are too many items here, and it is impossible for him to really argue with the Red Skull forever.

Nodding, indicating that the other party can start collecting items.

Seeing the phantom circling excitedly in the warehouse, Curran set his sights on the last upgrade reward.

It seems that the little licking dog still understands what he is thinking.
