I Got the Academy Morale Rune

EP.96 Stained Rock Pile (8)

As soon as I saw that strange information window.

I told the party members that I was going to go to the bathroom for a while.

Of course, there are no toilets in the dungeon, but it means that you will come to see the chores quickly.

And when you’ve been away for a while.

I was able to easily check the information window again.

“Suddenly, it’s a higher rune… ?”

Rubbing your eyes, you stare into space.

I was just looking to check the information on the newly acquired runes, but a golden information window about the ‘higher rune combination’ that I had forgotten for a while appeared.

The top rune I currently have is one [Master of Martial Arts].

A rune acquired when the function related to the upper rune first appeared.

If you succeed in this combination, you will acquire the second higher rune.

I read it before, but checked the information window again.

[There are currently runes that can be combined. You can acquire higher runes by using the mysterious power of the rune hunter.]

[Upper rune: Descendant of the Barbarian King / Lower rune: lizard scale, tough wolf skin, super strength, strong teeth, sharp claws, sharp fangs, search for prey, quadrupedal fighting]

“crazy. What is so much?”

There were quite a few runes selected as sub-runes.

No, actually not that many.

Right now, the last time [Master of Martial Arts] also had 8 runes selected.

However, the reason why there seem to be so many sub-runes in this combination.

And what stands out more than before…

“Almost all are rare runes.”

It was because of the fact that the runes selected as lower runes were all rare except for [Fight of Fours].

Considering that all of the lower runes were normal runes in [Master of Martial Arts], this time it is a combination that consumes a lot.

In addition, from [Lizard’s Scales] and [Sturdy Teeth], which have been active as filial piety for a long time, to [Searching for Prey] and [Pointed Fangs] that I recently acquired…

Most of the runes were auxiliary runes of the body enhancement series.

From this, it was possible to predict that the upper runes to be combined were, of course, the body enhancement series.

“Whew… Before combining, start with the newly acquired runes.”

The situation in which the ability of the sub-rune to be combined right now is unknown.

It was necessary to check the newly acquired rune information.

I loaded each rune information.

After entering the dungeon, a total of 4 runes were obtained.

[Agility], [Tough Wolf Hide], [Pointed Fang], [Searching for Prey].

The first two are Gray Wolf, the second is Black Wolf, and the last is a rune obtained from Asena, an A-class intermediate boss monster.

“It all seems normal… .”

Looking through the rune information, the first three were nothing special.

[Agility] is a normal rune that is backward compatible with [Agility], and [Tough Wolf Skin] and [Pointed Fang] are rare runes of the body strengthening series that have been steadily acquired.

But [searching for prey].

This is definitely special.

As the name suggests, the common rune of the archer series, the ‘Explore Rune’… Because of its rare grade, it has a much better performance than the normal rune [Search].

＜Rune Information＞

◎Class: Rare

◎Level: 6

: It can detect all the nearby objects within a certain distance. The performance increases in proportion to the rune level and the mental value, and depending on the gap, it is possible to detect the opponent even if it is in stealth.

: If the target to be detected is an animal, the performance of the rune is doubled.

◎Derived Skills: –

◎Details

: Searching for prey by wild beasts. Prey caught on the radar will not be able to escape easily.

“It’s okay.”

It was a standard search-type rune.

In the past, when I was solo in dungeon raids or field hunting, I used to wander often because there were no search runes, but now I don’t have to go through such inconvenience.

In addition, perhaps because of the name ‘prey’, the search performance for animals is doubled.

This was an additional effect that might be helpful depending on the situation.

“Now… .”

The golden information window was brought up again.

I also checked all the information on the newly acquired runes.

Now it was really time to combine the ‘second top rune’.

After realizing the heart pounding for some reason.

The combination proceeded slowly.

[You have combined the upper rune ‘Descendants of the Barbarian King’. Lizard Scales, Tough Wolf Hide, … A total of 8 runes, such as , quadruped fighting, are selected as sub-runes. The judgment level of the upper rune by combining the lower runes is 3.]

[You have obtained a new rune.]

[Acquire 4 strength and 4 durability each with rune tendencies.]

Rune information appeared immediately.

“… … .”

Overwhelming amount of explanation.

I was at a loss for words when I looked at him.

It’s not just a lot of information.

Rune grades, effects, skills…

Because everything about it is shocking.

It’s so gorgeous that it’s one of the few things I’ve seen so far.

It felt like being hit in the head.

It was a silence that arose as surprising information cluttered my eyes.

“What are the abilities… .”

First of all, it doesn’t make sense from the ability level correction.

strength and endurance.

For me, who fights directly, the main stats are the core.

These went up by 4 each.

The durability rose to 40 at once, and the muscle strength, which had been stagnant recently, became 45, surpassing the speed figure.

Considering that the gain at the time of obtaining [Master of Martial Arts] was 2 strength/3 speed, this is a very high level of increase.

In particular, these days, all of the abilities have increased, making it more difficult to raise new ones…

This was really an increase in ability like the rain of a drought.

But that’s not what really matters.

“Legend?”

High Rune [Descendants of the Barbarian King].

The rank of this rune was a whopping ‘Legendary’.

The first legendary rune I acquire.

It’s a rune I’ve never seen before.

If there was a plan, [Forgotten Dragon’s Slate].

A legendary rune you will get by unsealing this item.

I was filling up my magic stones with the intention of getting him…

I never really thought that I would get these legendary runes as a combination of higher runes.

Of course, not all legendary runes are the same.

Legendary runes are grades that are calculated when the rune is a kind of lore or is in contact with ancient history.

Of course, there are differences between the legends, and it was difficult to see the ‘Legend of the Dragon’ and the ‘Legend of the Barbarian King’ as the same.

“It’s not necessarily better than Epic.”

Legend doesn’t mean it’s better than Epic.

After the Epic rating, the runes had different origins, but there were times when the performance did not differ significantly.

Right now, epic runes like [Rune Hunter] and [Seeker’s Sweat] have a performance that surpasses that of most legendary runes.

Nevertheless, the legendary rune was obtained.

This must have been a pleasant fact.

I calmed my excitement and read the information slowly.

The first thing that catches your eye is the ‘special effects’.

“The Law of the Beast. This is completely my exclusive effect.”

The law of beasts that want to conquer the herd.

A special effect that supports stats when fighting alone with at least three or more enemies.

This was a completely optimized effect for me, who often hunts solos by nature.

‘At least three’, ‘Battle alone’, etc…

All of the conditional statements match me.

My runes, which can perform all major roles in the party, are almost set up to be called a one-person party.

“Mace, axe, hammer… I think this will have good synergy with a master of martial arts.”

Maybe it’s because of the nickname ‘Savage King’?

There was also the effect of calibrating the proficiency and power of the four types of weapons.

I don’t use other weapons very often, but ‘Knuckle-Bare Hand’ seemed to be quite useful because I used it most often after swords and daggers.

And last.

derived skill.

“Frenzy, this is a real thing.”

I said admiringly.

[Brenzy Potion] used by clan members in ＜Villain＞, including An Do-kwon, in extreme situations.

The power that was the source of the potion actually existed as a skill.

[Frenzy] is a skill that increases the power of all attacks by 50% after making the body heat up in a state of anger for a certain period of time.

There is a huge penalty of losing your sanity at the time of use, and losing the power of the rune when you finish using it…

That’s just a penalty for [Frenzy Potion], and it has nothing to do with the [Frenzy] skill.

There was only a penalty of a slight decrease in speed after use and a loss of sense of direction.

This level of power can be adequately tolerated.

“… It’s a jackpot.”

even after reading it all.

I had no choice but to stand blankly.

Just to confirm Kim Chae-eun’s improved skills.

Another hunting that came to attack the dungeon that had been undiscovered.

There was an unexpected variable, and while trying to escape as it was, I was fortunately helped by an S-class holder.

Runes obtained as a reward for winning a duel through him.

It’s just a reward for taking the bus…

The rewards overlap and overlap.

It was hitting a huge jackpot.
