The rune base began to emit a dark gold glow, but Abel realized something was wrong. The rune he drew began to slowly melt away. It seemed like the energy contained in the rune base made from such a powerful dark gold crystal core was too powerful for a blue rune to support.
Abel's face changed. He had failed. Suddenly, the dark gold crystal core in his left hand turned into a flash of light and disappeared from his hand.
Abel was not discouraged. He had expected this failure. Otherwise, he would not have prepared 3 types of rune ink for this experiment. He then took out the second dark gold crystal core base. He then ignited his power of the will, and the rune ink inside the Ankara pen was automatically forced out.
He dipped the rune pen into the golden rune ink and began to focus on the second rune. The failure just now did not affect his second rune. It was just as perfect and impeccable. The 'Akara's rune pen' had completely approved of this rune.
After 30 seconds of silence, the rune base in his hand began to violently vibrate. The dark gold crystal core's energy and the golden rune ink were fiercely communicating with each other. This kind of energy exchange was getting more and more intense. It felt like it was going to go out of control.
As expected, his guess was confirmed. The rune base in his hand turned into a flash of dark gold light and scattered into the air. It slowly fell to the ground and disappeared.
There was another possibility. Abel did not stop. His only hope was on the last type of dark gold rune ink. The drawing was also perfect, so all he had to do was wait for 30 seconds.
However, 30 seconds passed, 40 seconds passed, 1 minute passed, and 10 minutes passed. The rune base did not change at all. Abel's power of the will could clearly feel the dark gold crystal core's energy reaction, but it was quickly suppressed by the dark gold rune ink.
Although it did not explode, the rune in his hand was useless. The lines of the rune did not merge with the crystal core base, and the energy inside was not activated.
He had failed! A strong sense of failure rose from Abel's heart. Whether it was forging weapons, making rune signs, or making potions, his success rate had always been very high. He had not failed in a long time, and he had failed in the most important experiment. This was a huge blow to him.
However, after 3 failures, he should have gathered enough information. Let's try again. Abel's eyes became firm. He scanned the snake's self-healing belt with his power of the will, and a bottle of 'soul potion' was instantly emptied.
In his mind, an alchemy table and a full set of alchemy tools appeared. Everything was exactly the same as in reality. The only difference was that in his mind, there was an inexhaustible supply of materials for him to conduct countless experiments.
Because of the overclocking of his brain, his thinking speed was extremely fast. He kept getting inspiration, and experiments kept going.
Almost an hour later, Abel was sitting motionlessly in front of the alchemy table. Suddenly, his eyes opened from their closed state. A trace of purple energy flashed by. At this time, his brain was still in overclocking mode, and the effect of the 'soul potion' was still there.
He gently moved his right hand, and a cloak appeared on his body. This was the invisibility cloak he got from the assassin leader Arvid. Abel fixed the headband that could amplify his power of the will on top of the invisibility cloak. This was the headband he was using right now.
When the hood of the invisibility cloak was on his head, Abel's body began to slowly disappear. However, his power of the will had almost doubled. Because of the increase in power of the will, the world seemed to have become clearer.
The last crystal core was picked up by Abel. At the same time, he held the 'Akara rune pen' in his right hand. The rune pen flashed in a dark golden light, and the ink that was attached to it was forced out. The tip of the pen returned to its original pure white color.
Afterward, Abel lightly dipped the 'Akara rune pen' in the golden rune ink. He stopped the rune pen on the crystal core, and the 'Akara rune pen' turned into a phantom that couldn't be seen by the naked eye. It was quickly drawing on the crystal core.
If it weren't for the 'soul potion' that overclocked his brain and the headband that enhanced his power of the will, Abel wouldn't be able to draw runes this fast. Drawing runes was not as simple as drawing them directly. There were strict requirements for every corner and every stroke. Even a single mistake would cause all the previous efforts to be wasted.
Originally, it would take a few minutes, but Abel only used 20 seconds to complete the drawing. Before the crystal core and the golden rune began to change, the 'Akara rune pen' in Abel's right hand flashed in a dark golden light again, and the golden rune ink was forced out.
The 'Akara rune pen' lightly dipped in the dark golden rune ink and quickly began to draw on the crystal core for the second time. By this point, the crystal core had already begun to undergo some subtle changes. However, as the dark golden rune ink covered the original rune, the changes became even more unpredictable.
After another 20 seconds, the 'Akara rune pen' in Abel's hand stopped. He also woke up from the overclocked state of the 'soul potion'. His eyes were filled with anticipation as he looked at the rune in his hand.
The rune in Abel's hand kept reacting, but it kept getting suppressed. From the first rune line to the end, the entire rune line was reacting sequentially, but it was suppressed by the outermost layer of dark gold rune ink.
After another 30 seconds, a dark golden light began to shine on the rune. Just when Abel thought he had failed again, the dark golden light disappeared. The rune did not emit any light as he expected. Instead, it remained in his hand.
Abel focused his power of the will on the rune. It looked very quiet on the outside, but there was a huge amount of energy inside. Just like the 3 # tir rune, this 8 # ral rune seemed to have succeeded!
Abel was very satisfied with this result. He finally understood why he kept failing. It was because he had not reached the minimum requirement to draw a rune. In other words, his power of the will and control were not up to standard.
He had used his power of the will and rune drawing skills to draw a real rune. Of course, he would fail. Also, he had not learned how to make a real rune at the beginning. Even if he was asked to make a second rune without using the 'soul potion', he would still fail.
A rune drawing process that would normally take a few minutes to complete in 20 seconds was not a small improvement. Just from this point alone, Abel could see the difference between the Dark World and the Holy Continent's rune research. He had always been proud of his rune drawing ability, but it was still a far cry from the actual rune drawing ability.
Now that he knew the difference, there was a way to make up for it. His power of the will would increase as his wizard rank increased and he consumed large amounts of 'soul potions'. He would reach the requirement one day. However, Abel's intuition told him that he could only reach the level of a real head Knight.
Speed had always been a Knight's weakness, whether it was movement speed or attack speed. The Knight's training was all about strength and defense, so speed was also Abel's weakness.
Finally, it was a success. Abel held the 8 # ral rune in his hand and put it into the Hradik Cube to identify it.
Only through the Hradik Cube could he know if Abel's rune was approved by the Dark World. He focused his power of the will on the 8 # ral rune in the Hradik Cube, and a set of information appeared.
