A strange man in strange clothes and holding a suona? This description seems to come from an old friend.
Lester took the crystal and examined it with his mental power, his face suddenly became solemn.
Although he had been mentally prepared, the Imperial Navy lost more than 20,000 people in the first frontal battle. Such casualties far exceeded his psychological expectations.
Not counting the pirate forces of Bilgewater and the sea beast army of the Baru people, and only counting the vastaya navy and reserve navy, the empire can only collect 150,000 professionally trained sailors at full cost.
This battle has resulted in the loss of nearly one-sixth of the active navy soldiers. If not for a few more attacks, the empire will have to give up the three oceans and shrink the land for defense. By then, island forces like the Anaconda Islands are likely to be defeated by the Underworld Legion.
Kill them all.
The mental power extends downward to continue reading for more information. The crystal records in detail the judgments and various orders made by Imperial Navy Admiral Buckton Cecilia on the battlefield situation. In some places, the information available for crystal users is also marked.
Watching audio and video pictures, these audio and video pictures can allow users to more accurately and clearly extract the less obvious but very important parts of the language information.
In general, Admiral Buckton did not make any principled mistakes in the process of commanding the fleet, so it can be ruled out that the loss of troops was caused by improper command, that is, the enemy did dispatch very lethal troops.
, gave the Imperial Navy a hard blow.
But what kind of army can't even compete with the Dragon Bird Paladin who has been chosen from thousands of people?
Lester has personally tested the strength of the Dragon Bird Paladins. When fully armed, a hundred Dragon Bird Paladins have a chance to turn the weak Anivia into an egg again, and then shake the egg yolk into pieces.
The Dragon Bird Paladin on this scale definitely has the ability to compete with demigods.
After all, Anivia is also a natural elf with the ice element as a god. With such strength, it has surpassed any army in Rune Land, not to mention that the Dragon Bird Paladin has deliberately strengthened its war advantage against the underworld.
The Dragon Bird Paladin's armor and equipment are all added with holy stones and purification magic, and the war spear is even added with very expensive Demacia holy silver, in order to restrain the demons and monsters in the underworld.
Can you still lose like this?
After calming down, Lester continued to read, and soon found the information about the 'Black Armored Knight' and 'Suona Monster' mentioned by Sheena.
The Suona weirdo who helped the Imperial Fleet use magic to capture a black-armored knight was not beyond his guess. This was the mentor of the Voice of the Universe, the King of Rags in Summoner's Rift, and a follower of countless wood spirits—Spicy
No one knows what he is talking about, but when asked, everything he says is right.
It’s hard to say anything about Bard officially appearing in Runeterra now to pick up rags. Lester can only say that it’s the current Runeterra because even grandma doesn’t recognize him as a butterfly.
In short, Bard is on the side of mankind, which is enough for him. He can try to communicate and cooperate with them to maintain the harmony of Runeterra.
As for the black-armored shock knight, it's worth taking a closer look at what it is.
Lester looked intently at the audio and video screen, and a scene taken from the battlefield appeared in front of him.
The heavy plate armor of the Dark Ages is similar in style to Mordekaiser's armor, the heavy metal knight gun is so exaggerated that it can attack the city gate alone, and the skeletal pegasus under the crotch has obvious dragon characteristics, and seems to be some kind of fusion of dragon blood.
artificial creatures,
From the appearance point of view, the black-armored shock knight is definitely the same powerful thing as Mordekaiser. It implements the rough art style of Ouchen's big black guy, which is "silly, big, stupid, rough and durable". It is said that it is Morde.
Even Caesar's own son Leicester believed that he was just the same model.
In addition to the photo of the black-armored shock knight taken on the battlefield, there is also a second audio-visual scene, but it is the unlucky guy who was turned into an Oscar statuette by Bard. Below the audio-visual mark is attached the investigation report of the captives by the Holy Light Archmage Rubio.
.
"According to investigation and research, the Black Armor Shock Knight has no entity. It is just a set of movable plate armor, with the ghosts of the underworld who control the plate armor attached to it. Its weapon, the heavy knight gun, is most likely to have an instant death curse, which can damage living creatures.
The soul caused irresistible fatal damage. Currently, we can only try to use time stasis magic to seal a single target... Haha, it’s been a long time since I saw an enemy with real damage.”
Lester put down the crystal, his face as cold as frost.
Xina sat up from Lester's arms, her serious face no longer showing any hint of flirting.
"It seems you know something?"
Lester nodded and whispered.
"If I remember correctly, the mask spirit [Ethereal Evil Owl] under the Mother of Masks has the same ability. If my soul didn't belong to Runeterra at all, I would have died at the hands of Ethereal Evil Owl.
Already."
After a pause, Lester continued.
"The attack of the Void Spirit Evil Owl can directly act on the soul regardless of any defense. Simply put, it is to forcefully separate the soul from the body and transfer it to the River Styx. This comes from the authority of the Mother of Masks and symbolizes life and death.
authority of reincarnation,
It can be said that as long as it is a native resident of Runeterra, ranging from an ant to a giant dragon, even Kindred and Frog Spirit, who are both mask spirits, and even the Mother of Masks themselves, as long as the Void Spirit Evil Owl is willing, any life can
I have to go for a walk in the River Styx. It's not certain whether I can come out by then.
Mordekaiser's underworld cavalry probably cracked the secret of the Styx from the Mother of Masks or the Void Evil Owl, and attached a layer of curse to the impact lance that caused specific damage to the soul.
Or perhaps, these living iron cans like Mordekaiser themselves have the ability to cause real damage."
After hearing what Lester said, Xina's face also became very ugly.
"Ignoring any defense and sending the soul directly to the River Styx, doesn't this mean that no one is the opponent of this cavalry?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lester frowned, his eyes looking thoughtful.
"It can be said that unless we can find a way to seal the other party without touching it, we can use time magic to forcibly imprison the enemy like the star wandering god Bard, or we can reach the River Styx as soon as possible and put the mask in the hands of the underworld army.
Rescue the Mother and take back the River Styx."
"Bard, the wandering god of the astral world? Sure enough, the three-hole masked monster who wandered into the battlefield is also an alien god from the astral world?"
"Yes, strictly speaking, Bard does not completely belong to the star realm. He is considered an outsider in the star realm.
That guy is peaceful by nature, and his only persistent thing is to find and maintain the sound of harmony in the universe. The reason why he appears on the battlefield is to let the wood spirits around him collect those sounds of harmony, which is beneficial to world peace.
Bard will not cause any harm to the empire. You can try to win over him, but even if you can't win over him, you still have to show your good will and don't stop the other party from collecting those things that sparkle with golden light."
"It seems we have to prepare early, so I won't disturb you here."
Xina nodded, stood up with some reluctance, and glanced at Lester.
"I just hope our mage can find a suitable sealing method. As for the Star World Traveling God, no one knows when he will appear next. If there is any key information, I will come here to find you again.
of."
When Sheena left, a handsome green-haired elf appeared on Lester's shoulder. Who else could it be if it wasn't Elena?
"Teacher, you seem to have other ideas about these black-armored knights?"
Lester sighed softly.
"I have always felt that only an outsider like me whose soul does not belong to Runeterra can ignore the Styx Laws of Runeterra.
But just now I thought, is there a possibility that even souls born in Runeterra can obtain the same immunity as long as they can break away from the shackles of the Styx? In this way, they will not be able to fight back when encountering enemies.
Spare energy."
The green-haired elf showed a shocked expression.
"Could it be that you are referring to those reincarnated people who bear the mark of Qian Jue?"
"Of course, it's just speculation at this point. The situation is not bad enough to require Lux and the others to rush to the battlefield... Elena, we have to speed up a little bit."
Without much time for chatting, Lester once again settled down cross-legged, his consciousness sinking into the spiritual world.
Different from the past, since Lester reverse-engineered the black runes according to the method inspired by Naga Kapoulos, the rune altar created by Elena has emerged from the sea of spirits.
Now Elena no longer needs to rely on the depth and pressure of the spiritual sea to help Lester balance the power of runes in his body. Exposing the rune altar to the surface of the spiritual sea will help Lester absorb and control it.
World runes.
Returning to the spiritual world, the spiritual body that is exactly the same as the original body floats across the ocean like a ghost and flies towards the rune altar. Looking from a distance, five different colors of light burst out from the rune altar and blend together.
Finally, seven colors of rays interweave on the sea surface, lighting up the dark starry night in the inner world.
When Lester's spiritual body stayed next to the rune altar, Elena, who was surrounded by green light, condensed her body from the sky above the altar. For a moment, the green light of the rune altar bloomed, and the light of the life rune overwhelmed it.
Other runes of color have the meaning of "dictating the universe".
The five different-shaped rune slots on the rune altar are inlaid with five kinds of world runes. From high to low, they are the red runes of the dominance system, the gold runes of the precision system, the purple runes of the arcane system, and the blue runes of the enlightenment system.
As the cornerstone of the rune altar, it is the green rune of life with the largest size and the most unshakable status.
The collection and control of the life runes fused with Elena have reached over 98% completeness at the same time, making them the well-deserved cornerstone of the runes.
The life runes give Lester an almost unlimited lifespan and immeasurable growth ability, which is the core of Lester's growth to this day.
Ranked second in terms of collection and control are the arcane runes. The arcane runes give Lester unparalleled arcane talent and devastating spell power. Lester himself has great abilities.
He has a talent for magic and likes to delve into magic and runes, so the control speed of arcane runes is slightly faster than that of other three series runes.
Ranked third are the domination runes. The domination runes can directly affect the interaction of soul energy in the material realm and the spiritual realm. They can forcibly intercept and plunder soul energy from other places for their own use in a very domineering way.
Lester, who possesses the domination rune, can never be killed by the "Human Sea Tactics". As long as the environment he is in still has the possibility of "energy interaction", no matter whether it is a person or anything, it will be used by him.
It is said that the domination runes are the most aggressive and destructive world runes among the five series of runes.
Precision runes rank fourth in terms of controllability. Precision runes give Leicester the ability to analyze, calculate and control. It is not just as simple as 'increasing attack speed' or 'superimposing damage' in the game. Precision runes give Leicester the ability to analyze, calculate and control.
Runes affect people's ability to recognize, understand and utilize the laws of the world. It can be abstractly understood as mathematical talent, but there are two completely different results.
In Runeterra, people with the talent of "Double Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts" are unique geniuses. If ordinary people don't have any adventures, they can only choose one path to go on throughout their lives. If they want to embark on another path of practice without side effects,
The path is simply a fantasy. Just the conflict of strength attributes is enough for a person to "go crazy and explode to death."
Lester is able to master arcane magic, life spells, rune power, vastaya spiritual magic and many other unreachable powers at the same time without any side effects. In addition to having Elena in the middle to help coordinate, he is also subject to precise
The great influence of the precision runes. Without the precision runes, Lester would never have had such an ability that goes against the laws of nature.
Finally, the enlightenment runes, which have the least control and are also the most mysterious, are the hardest bones to crack.
For other world runes, Lester still has a clue to find a practice method that matches the rune attributes, but he has no idea at all for the enlightenment runes, and it has not helped him at all so far.
It's like guarding a golden mountain but unable to do anything,
The enlightenment runes gave him the feeling that they were broken by a layer of window paper. However, this layer of window paper was as hard as a locked cast steel door. He couldn't even think of opening this window until he found the key.
The door opens.
There was no time to fight with the enlightenment runes, so Lester could only leave the enlightenment runes at the end of the training sequence, hoping that mastering the other four series of runes would give him the power to open the door to the enlightenment runes.
'Key to Enlightenment',
He also has a vague feeling that the enlightenment runes may be related to the creation of "out of nothing". If this is the case, when he understands the enlightenment runes, they will be no different from the creation gods.
Thoughts flashed by, watching Elena melt into the rune altar, Lester also jumped towards the rune altar, as if falling into a bottomless stream of consciousness tunnel, five things appeared in front of him.
Opening doors of different colors, without any hesitation, Lester plunged into the strange world of precision runes.
