Chapter 583: Chapter 289: Gap-Seeking Technique (Part 3)

The knowledge within the Memory Pearl surged into his mind like a tide.

Each fragment was clear and layered, a seasoned Rune Master’s accumulation of insights.

Frederick the Lecturer was indeed generous.

The content of this Memory Pearl far exceeded typical introductory guidance, almost encompassing the entire foundational knowledge framework of Rune Magic and Enchantment Technique.

Ron was completely immersed in the sea of knowledge, his Spiritual Power firmly locking onto those flowing silver fragments, engraving every detail in his mind.

The first thing that appeared before him was the basic classification of runes and their construction principles.

Compared to what was taught in class, the content in the Memory Pearl was more systematic and in-depth, containing many key details not mentioned in class.

"Runes are essentially the solidified expression of energy, with each stroke and node representing a specific direction and change of energy flow."

Frederick’s voice echoed in his consciousness, clear as if he were present:

"The most common mistake is to regard runes as simple patterns or symbols, ignoring their intrinsic energy structure."

In the memory, the construction process of a basic rune emerged.

From the initial energy fluctuation, to the formation of the structure in the middle, and finally to stabilization and solidification, each step was clearly visible.

This intuitive display was more helpful for understanding than any textual description.

"Energy runes are the foundation of all enchantments, responsible for the absorption, transformation, and release of energy."

Frederick explained:

"Without a stable energy source, no matter how exquisite the enchantment structure, it would be like water without a source."

As the explanation continued, a series of variations of energy runes unfolded in Ron’s consciousness.

From the simplest "Energy Absorption" to the complex "Multi-Phase Transformation."

Each came with detailed construction steps and precautions.

"Control runes are the brain of enchantments, determining how energy flows and changes." The knowledge flow continued:

"A carefully designed control rune network can make enchanted items exhibit different effects under varying conditions, greatly enhancing their practicality and adaptability."

Ron paid special attention to this part, as control runes were precisely where most beginners struggled.

They not only required precise drawing skills but also clear logical thinking and a deep understanding of energy principles.

"Effect runes are the final presentation of enchantments, directly determining the function and power of enchanted items."

Frederick’s voice continued to guide:

"From simple ’Guiding Mark’ and ’Light Up’ to the complex ’Chaos Convergence’ and ’Breath of Nothingness,’ each effect rune has its unique construction logic and usage scenarios."

Subsequently, the Memory Pearl showcased practical application cases of dozens of common effect runes.

Covering everything from everyday items to combat equipment, most practical areas of enchantment were included.

Frederick particularly emphasized the combination principles of runes, which was the key to advancing from entry to Skilled Level.

The effect of a single rune was limited; only by combining multiple runes according to specific principles could one achieve truly powerful effects.

Next, the Memory Pearl showcased some basic yet practical rune arrays.

Such as "Micro Light," "Stabilization Circuit," and "Energy Conversion," each with detailed construction steps and descriptions of actual effects.

These are classic practice projects for Rune Learners, both safe and practical, very suitable for beginners to practice.

As the last wisp of knowledge flow dissipated, Ron slowly opened his eyes.

The intense concentration and vast information intake, even for an Official Wizard like him, was no small burden.

He walked to the laboratory bench and took out a set of rune tools.

This was the advanced set he bought from the internal store of the Crystal Tower last week, containing rune pens of various materials, special ink, and multiple practice boards.

He chose a silver-tipped rune pen and a practice board, starting to attempt the drawing of basic energy runes he learned from the Memory Pearl.

The tip of the pen lightly touched the practice board, and a silver light flowed slowly with his movement, leaving delicate marks on its surface.

"The flow of energy must be continuous, without any break or stagnation."

He recalled Frederick’s guidance in his mind, his hands moving incessantly:

"Each stroke’s energy density must also remain consistent, neither too strong nor too weak."

After completing the first basic rune, Ron felt somewhat dissatisfied.

Although the shape was basically correct, the energy flow was evidently not smooth enough, and the connections between lines were not natural enough.

This level of rune, even if activated, would have its effect greatly reduced.

"Indeed, there is quite a gap between theoretical understanding and practical operation."

He assessed his work.

"The essence of Rune Magic lies in ’accomplishing it in one go’..."

Ron recalled Frederick’s teaching again and decided to give it another try.

He closed his eyes and repeatedly simulated the rune drawing process in his mind.

Imagining how Spiritual Power should flow, how energy should be transformed, and at what angle and force each stroke should be completed.

After a few minutes of mental preparation, he picked up the rune pen once more.

This time, without the slightest hesitation, he completed the entire rune in one continuous stroke.

The result was pleasantly surprising.

Though the lines were not as regular as before, the energy flow was noticeably smoother, and the rune emitted a more harmonious glow overall.

This was precisely the initial manifestation of "accomplishing it in one go," proving he was beginning to understand the essence of runes.

The experience points notification proved that his attempt was entirely on the right track.

As he delved deeper into practice, he gradually found his rhythm and touch, and the runes he drew became closer to the ideal state.

After several hours of intensive practice, Ron felt somewhat mentally fatigued, but the results were very noticeable.

He prepared to try the simplest rune combination—"Micro Light."

This was a small array composed of three basic runes.

Capable of producing a persistent and stable faint glow, it is a classic entry-level practice.

"The core of the Micro Light Array is balance."

He recalled Frederick’s teaching:

"The energy rune provides energy, the control rune regulates the flow rate, and the effect rune transforms it into light. None can be omitted, and the precise proportional relationship must be maintained."

He first marked the positions of the three runes on the practice board, ensuring their distances and angles met the requirements.

Then, following the sequence of Energy → Control → Effect, he drew the three runes one by one.

Each rune went through repeated analysis and adjustment to ensure its shape and energy density achieved the best state.

The last and most crucial step was connecting the three separate runes into a whole.

This required additional connection lines to guide the energy to circulate among the three runes in a specific way.

These connection lines, seemingly simple, actually tested the operator’s delicate control ability greatly.

"The width of the connection lines must be uniform, the angle precise, and the energy flow smooth."

Ron focused his Spiritual Power, letting the silver light slowly spread among the three runes, forming a complete circuit.

When the final stroke was completed, the entire array suddenly lit up with a faint glow, proving the rune combination had been successfully activated.

The glow was not intense, like the first star shining as night falls, but its stability and persistence exceeded those of ordinary demon crystal light sources.

At this improvement rate, it should take about half a year to break through to the Skilled Level.

Compared to the initial progress in Magic Potion Making, Alchemy, and Bloodline Modulation, Ron was somewhat unsatisfied with the improvement speed in the Enchantment discipline.

"However, since its star level is one higher than those three, the difficulty naturally increases as well, so let’s take it slowly."

He stood up and stretched his slightly stiff limbs.
