Chapter 154 – Forgotten Dragon Knight’s Pride (2)

What are the conditions for the ultimate skill to manifest?

Each holder has a different view, and each researcher has a different view, but…

The condition I think is ‘understanding’.

A rune that has that skill.

You must have a high level of understanding of runes to use ultimate skills.

For example, one of the epic runes I have.

See [Garden of the Cracked Earth].

[Garden of the Cracked Earth] Is a rune obtained as a reward after defeating the ‘Imoogi of the Mountain’.

A high-ranking magic rune with no special effects to throw away either.

Nevertheless, I have never even acquired a new derived skill, let alone the ultimate skill of this rune.

‘Because I lack understanding.’

Thanks to the power of [Rune Hunter], The level itself was calibrated and acquired, but I couldn’t dig into the real power of the rune in detail.

Because I’m not a wizard type.

I’ve always used the magic runes I possess as an auxiliary concept for my battles, and I’ve never used them as a formal spell.

Even if I just look at my main ultimate skills, [Waving Sword] And [Low Water Bow]…

It was possible to use it only after raising the relevant rune to level 10 and satisfying various conditions.

Not to mention other runes with slow growth.

‘By the way….’

But this time, a newly acquired rune.

The [Forgotten Dragon Knight’s Pride] Was able to manifest the ultimate skill immediately.

There are quite a few complex elements hidden here.

[You won the duel! Victory is credited due to the high contribution in the duel. Rune Hunter’s arcane power allows him to duplicate one of his opponent’s runes. Please select a rune to duplicate.]

[You have selected ‘Myeongkyung Index’. Since it is a level 11 epic rune, the level will drop and be registered as level 6.]

[You have obtained a new rune.]

[Acquires 4 Spirit with the rune’s inclination.]

[Declaration of War] Temporarily stops enemy movement…

While filling the [Forgotten Dragon Slate] In a hurry.

I also quickly called up the information windows on one side.

It was to acquire the [Rune Hunter] Reward for the boss attack of the ‘Smuggling Cave’ this time.

‘I have to do something.’

[Forgotten sub-dragon slate] Even if you break the seal, you don’t have the power to completely overturn the board.

Because I had to do something.

In order to increase the win rate even a little, I had to bring in all the power I could, and the only time was now when the enemies were in abnormal conditions.

‘Myeonggyeongjisu.’

Obtained the [Bright Landscape Index] Rune from Yamata no Orochi.

One of the highest level runes in the spirit category that Park Jin-woo also owns.

It was a rune I always wanted to have whenever I saw him, but luckily I was able to get it through this opportunity.

Thanks to this, his mental level rose by 4 all at once, and his resistance to curses and spells, which were troublesome, became close to immunity.

It might be useful right away, but it was a very attractive rune for the holder anyway.

Up to this point, there were no variables.

The problem started with the rune obtained after defeating the Flame Hydra.

[You won the duel! Victory is credited due to the high contribution in the duel. Rune Hunter’s arcane power allows him to duplicate one of his opponent’s runes. Please select a rune to duplicate.]

[You chose ‘A fire that spreads without hesitation’. Since it is a level 9 epic rune, the level will drop and be registered as level 5.]

[You have obtained a new rune.]

[Acquires 2 magical power and 3 fire resistance with the rune’s tendency.]

[Currently, there are runes that can be combined! You can acquire higher rank runes using the rune hunter’s mysterious power.]

[Upper Rune: Elemental Master / Lower Rune: Unstoppable Fire, Waves Swallowing Whirlpools, Cracked Earth’s Garden, Rough Shaking Wind]

An epic rune obtained by defeating a Flame Hydra.

[The fire spreads without hesitation].

As demonstrated by the Flame Hydra, it was a powerful and destructive fire-attribute magic rune.

It could be seen as an upwardly compatible version of the [Scorching Flame] Or [Lion’s Fireworks] That I already own.

But as soon as he obtained it, it was as if he had waited.

The information of the ‘higher rune combination’ appeared.

I took a quick look…

All of the sub-runes are runes obtained by defeating sub-dragons.

Fire, water, earth and wind.

A top rune that combines the four major attributes at once.

[Master of martial arts], [Descendant of King Yaman], [The best racehorse in the world].

Following the three top runes, it was the moment when the fourth top rune was born.

[You have combined the upper rune ‘Elemental Master’. A total of 4 runes are selected as sub-runes. The judgment level of the upper rune that combines the lower runes is 5.]

[You have obtained a new rune.]

[Acquires 2 magical power with the rune’s propensity, and acquires 2 each of fire resistance, water resistance, wind resistance, and earth resistance.]

◎Details

: The ability to handle all the elements of Mother Nature. It is said to have been possessed by ancient wizards, and its origin lies in dragons. Affinity with Mother Nature and elements rapidly increases.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to read this slowly.

Too many.

If only I could overcome this crisis and go outside…

I felt I had to read it carefully again.

Of course, it wasn’t unexpected.

There were already two high-level runes I had acquired, and through my experiences so far, I thought that if all the elemental runes were gathered, something would be combined.

I didn’t know that the result would be a ‘Legendary rune with 4 epic runes as sub-runes’, but it was a high-level rune that was very helpful in increasing power anyway.

But this rune…

Unlocking the [Forgotten Dragon’s Slate] Seal again.

I had no idea that it would have a huge impact here.

[The magic stone of the forgotten sub-dragon is filled. The stone slab is surrounded by an aura of strange power.]

[All the magic stones in the slate have been filled. The seal is unlocked.]

[All the secrets of the slate have been solved! Through a long journey, you have reclaimed the traces of those whose names and honors have been forgotten. Their hot glory in the past will now be realized through the promise you received.]

[Acquire the new rune ‘Promise of the Dragon’.]

[Acquires 2 magical power and 3 leadership with the rune’s tendency.]

[‘Special stats’ are activated in the holder information.]

Legendary rune, [Promise made by dragon words].

This is a rune that allows you to handle dragons or sub-dragons under specific conditions and circumstances, and is a taming (training) type of rune that is considered extremely rare among holders.

In the original work, Jiyun-jae unlocked all the secrets of the slate and obtained this rune, and he obtained the title of ‘Assassin Riding the Dragon’.

There are many tricky conditions attached to taming itself, but if you can tame a decent sub-dragon, it is a rune that can exert quite a powerful force.

I was aware of this as well.

Of course, I didn’t think I would be able to use it right away, and I just tried to create a variable in the battle structure with the stats obtained as rewards.

By the way….

[The unlocked slate corresponds to the runes you have. The affected runes are ‘Descendant of the Barbarian King’ and ‘Elemental Master’. The new conditions are satisfied, and the hidden secret is unlocked!]

[Vast sky, vast pride, oath of faith. A long time ago. The pact between humans and dragons crosses the ages and arrives in the land where heroes sleep. Mysterious and holy power dwells wherever you stay.]

[Acquire the new rune ‘Pride of the Forgotten Dragon Knight’.]

[If all special conditions are satisfied, it will be registered as level 10.]

[Acquire 5 each of the general ability values ​​(strength, speed, magic, divinity, spirit, durability) according to the rune’s inclination.]

A completely unexpected rune appeared.

Variables that seemed like gears twisted the results.

A rune that Ji Yoon-jae did not have in the original work.

[The Forgotten Dragon Knight’s Pride].

A new legendary rune was engraved on my body.

The requirements for acquiring runes are…

The extreme special conditions of possessing [Descendants of the Barbarian King] And [Elemental Masters].

Since both runes were obtained through [Rune Hunter]’S ‘Upper Rune System’, it was virtually impossible for an ordinary holder to acquire them.

‘So do i.’

And this was the case for me too.

If only I had simply filled the mana stone.

You wouldn’t have gotten this rune.

In other words, if you didn’t get the [Unstoppable Burning Horse] After hunting the Flame Hydra, if you didn’t have the combined upper rune [Elemental Master].

Like that, if I didn’t satisfy the hidden conditions without knowing it.

Like Jiyun-jae, a rune that he would have never seen.

However, everything fits like a lie, and I am able to possess a powerful rune.

Dungeon clearing reward at once.

It was the moment when he obtained three legendary runes.
