Now, he was only missing one thing …
Every puppet had its own unique control rune, and the number of control runes varied according to the puppet. For example, the mining puppets produced by the Gilded Rose only had three to five control runes at most, and they could only control a few things like mining and transportation.
But some battle puppets had much more complicated control runes. Generally speaking, there would be at least a few dozen control runes, because the puppeteer didn't have any thoughts. Only with enough control runes could the puppet adapt to the ever-changing battle.
What Lin Yun lacked now was that control rune.
This seemed to be an unsolvable problem.
Finding the control runes of a puppet that had stopped working for over three hundred years was simply an impossible task.
But Lin Yun actually smiled.
He smiled while taking out that Inheritance Ring. It was too obvious. In all of Noscent, only the Black Tower could make puppets based on Gaugass Battlemages.
In other words, the skeleton lying on the other side of the path was most likely the master of this puppet.
This master had left behind a total of two relics.
One was a True Spirit Magic Staff, that was the puppet's mana source.
The other was an Inheritance Ring. Lin Yun hadn't been able to see its use before, but now, Lin Yun understood. If it wasn't the puppet's control rune, what else could it be?
Lin Yun unhesitantly took out that Inheritance Ring. The Magic Array revolved and a wisp of mana was poured into it. In an instant, a deep Nesser Language echoed in Lin Yun's ears.
One, two, three, four …
But even Lin Yun hadn't expected that this puppet actually had over a hundred and thirty control runes!
Moreover, these hundred and thirty control runes were divided into a few layers, each layer more precise than the one before. The lowest control rune could even modify the puppet's casting technique. This was a bit abnormal, it was the same as giving the puppet the casting technique of a mage.
Naturally, that was on the premise that the puppet's master had already grasped this technique.
For Lin Yun, this was not a problem at all.
After memorizing all the control runes, Lin Yun put the ring back into his pocket. Ever since the Bone Demon had awakened, Lin Yun revealed a relaxed expression for the first time. This was because Lin Yun knew that he already had the strength to fight against the Bone Demon. If everything went smoothly, he might even be able to control the Nether Iron Vein in advance.
As he thought of this, Lin Yun inserted his magic staff into the puppet's body, and the huge Elemental Amber filled the gap in the mana source. A large amount of mana started pouring in like a flood. After three seconds, the puppet's fingers moved, and ten seconds later, the array on the Gold Essence skeleton started shining.
After thirty seconds, the light of the Elemental Amber dimmed, and the puppet's body fiercely shook.
Charging complete!
"Attack!" Lin Yun took out that dimmed Spiritual Magic Staff and chanted the control runes in Nesser Language. The puppet's originally stiff body suddenly straightened, and it grabbed the Gold Essence Spear next to it before rushing out of the narrow passage at an astonishing speed.
Only then did Lin Yun understand how this passage had been dug back then. It couldn't even be described as digging. The puppet wearing heavy plate armor was like an armored bulldozer. With a sweep of the three-meter-long Gold Essence Spear, a large amount of earth was turned over, and it only took a moment for it to rush out of the hundred-meter-long passage.
As the puppet rushed out of the passage, the Bone Demon also entered the cave, its deep roar filling the narrow space. Two phosphorescent lights were throbbing in its empty eye sockets, and several dozen Dark Fire Bullets were revolving around its body. It looked as sinister as a will-o '-the-wisp in a graveyard.
The moment the puppet appeared, the Bone Demon clearly froze.
Although the Bone Demon's fighting strength was close to that of a High Mage, its intelligence wasn't high. With its pitiful intelligence, it really couldn't understand a strange existence like the puppet. It didn't look like an Undead, but it also didn't look like a living person, yet it was emitting shocking mana fluctuations. What kind of monster was this?
The puppet definitely didn't want to answer the Bone Demon's question. It fiercely swept its Gold Essence Spear and sent the Bone Demon's huge body flying. A muffled sound echoed as the Bone Demon crashed into a stone wall.
But the Bone Demon was worthy of being an Undead lifeform with fighting strength close to that of a High Mage. After suffering such a heavy injury, it only let out an angry roar before staggering back up. Moreover, it was clear that the puppet's attack had thoroughly infuriated this overlord of the black wasteland. The two phosphorescent lights in its eye sockets raged as it let out an angry roar and charged at the puppet.
Another muffled sound echoed as the two inhuman lifeforms fiercely collided. One was an alchemy puppet wielding a Gold Essence Spear, while the other was an overlord of the black wasteland controlling Dark Fire Bullets. This battle had just started, but it had already become extremely bitter.
Every time the two inhuman lifeforms collided, a muffled sound would echo. This was a battle where there was no defense, only offense. The degree of bitterness was enough to make any human Great Swordsman pale. The Bone Demon could let the Gold Essence Spear penetrate its body in order to let a Dark Fire Bullet hit it, and the puppet could also let the Dark Fire Bullet explode on its body in order to hit the Bone Demon's skull.
Amidst the flying dust, three rows of the Bone Demon's ribs had already been broken, and the holes looked extremely sinister. Naturally, the puppet wasn't much better. Its thick Gold Essence Plate had already caved in a few times, and the area near its chest had even been pierced by the Bone Demon's Bone Spikes.
Lin Yun kept spitting out control runes as he walked down the long path, one hand tightly gripping the Spiritual Magic Staff while the other tightly gripping the Sage Chapter.
At this time, only Lin Yun knew that his palms were soaked in sweat.
Because he only had one chance …
If he missed this opportunity, no matter how powerful the puppet was, he would have no choice but to stay in the Bone Plane forever. After all, this puppet was at most a 1st Rank Great Mage and a 5th Rank Great Swordsman. There was still a huge gap between it and a Bone Demon that could contend against a High Mage.
It now looked like the puppet was on par with the Bone Demon, but Lin Yun knew that it wasn't because of the puppet's own power, but because he was casting three control runes per second.
