With the War God's Sword in his hand, Baiyi held the hilt and cautiously approached the distortion in the air. This time, it was different. As soon as the hilt touched the distortion, the distortion disappeared, and the air returned to normal. At the bottom of the hilt of the War God's Sword, a strange pattern appeared. It looked like some kind of rune.
"Is this … a Godly Rune?" Baiyi speculated as he studied the rune on the hilt.
A Godly Rune was a naturally formed rune that contained some magical energy or some basic magical effects. It could be considered as the origin of human magic. In the beginning, humans sensed the magical waves emitted from the Godly Runes, simulated the waves, and drew the first formations. Then, as time went on, they simplified the formations back into runes.
Godly Runes were not that rare. A storm, a flood, a volcanic eruption, or lightning striking the earth could produce a Godly Rune. In the beginning, people did not understand the cause of Godly Runes, so they thought it was a gift from God. However, with the development of magical theory, the academic community still thought that Godly Runes were actually traces left behind by natural magical explosions, and they had nothing to do with God.
Baiyi and the rest of the Voidwalkers also had the same thought. But today, they had a new perspective.
"Could this Godly Rune be some kind of special manifestation of the Laws?" Baiyi said in the Void as he scanned his surroundings. When he realized that the area around him did not turn into an apocalyptic scene after he took away the suspicious runes, he felt relieved and flew back with Attie.
"I don't think your theory is accurate, Sir Hope." The Scholar corrected Baiyi's earlier point of view. "To be more precise, only the Godly Rune that you have right now fits your description of special manifestation. Other Godly Runes do not have this untouchable and undetectable characteristic."
"I agree with Sir Scholar," the youngest Apprentice chimed in. The youngest Apprentice chimed in, "Everything is a manifestation of the Laws. Based on this, I believe that this rune is a fragment of the Laws that has yet to fully manifest. Considering the War God's actions, I believe that he is trying to convey something to us through this fragment of the Laws."
"What will this thing look like when it's fully materialized?" Baiyi asked.
"No one knows. Maybe it's just ordinary air. Maybe it's a divine rune. Or maybe it's a trigger for the destruction of the world," the Scholar Walker said half-jokingly.
"Ah … Rules, the origin of the world. Do we have the possibility to touch it now? I was suddenly thinking, should we think of a way to restore the third method and hold a Holy Grail War? Or, look for those who can see strange lines in their eyes. Argh! Urgh! "Before the Archmage could finish his sentence, Baiyi had cast a Silence Spell on him for ten minutes.
"Must we randomly insert other works' settings when we're having a serious discussion?" Baiyi was speechless at his teacher's sudden leap of thought. It had seriously ruined the atmosphere of the discussion.
"Tsk, you won't even let your own teacher off? What a lunatic … "The Paladin Walker muttered under his breath. Baiyi pretended not to hear him and continued his discussion with the Voidwalkers. Back in the real world, Baiyi did not stay idle either. After sending Attie back to the command center, he locked himself in his room with the excuse that he needed to think about something.
Following the Scholar Walker's suggestion, he decided to use his consciousness to see what the Godly Rune was.
It was a very dangerous move, especially for something that he had no knowledge of. If using one's psychic energy was equivalent to using one's hands to touch and feel, then directly using one's consciousness was equivalent to putting one's face on it. The level of danger was obvious. However, there was no other way. This Godly Rune could not be understood using conventional methods. Baiyi had no choice but to risk directly using his consciousness.
Therefore, he separated a small part of his consciousness and carefully extended it towards the Godly Rune at the bottom of the sword's hilt. He was a little nervous. If there was some kind of setting that could erase one's consciousness or contaminate one's consciousness, he would be severely injured. At the very least, he would lose that small part of his consciousness. If he were to use the terminology of cultivation novels to explain it, his soul would be damaged. That was very dangerous.
Fortunately, the worst-case scenario did not happen. When Baiyi's consciousness came into contact with the Godly Rune, a series of messy images flashed before his eyes. Then, a voice rang out in his consciousness, "Congratulations!"
Then, it said, "Be careful!"
After that, everything returned to normal. The whole process only lasted for a second. It felt like a hallucination.
Baiyi mimicked a normal person's action of letting out a long breath and quickly retracted his consciousness. Then, he carefully checked his own memory and compared it with the other Voidwalkers. After confirming that there was nothing that had been tampered with, he felt relieved. Slowly, he recalled the images that flashed before his eyes and explained the situation to the other Voidwalkers.
"They seem to be meaningless images," Baiyi said. Baiyi said, There are mountains, there are skies, there are grasslands, and there are also scorching lands that are burning with fire … What does this mean? The location of other Godly Runes? "
"The War God would never make such a lame joke," the Archmage, who had just been muted, joined in the discussion. The Archmage's silence was soon over, and he seriously joined in the discussion. "These images can be seen everywhere in the millions of planes. How could you possibly find them?"
"Then … Is he trying to hint at something?" Baiyi asked.
"Let's put these meaningless images aside for now. You said he told you to be careful and congratulate you?" The Scholar Walker changed the topic. "Congratulations are easy to understand. Congratulations on obtaining this law fragment, but what does' be careful 'mean? What is he trying to tell you to be careful of? "
"I don't know," Baiyi replied. Baiyi's real body slowly walked to the window and gazed at the setting sun. "However, if there's an existence that's worthy of my caution, and at the same time, it's worthy of him using such a method to warn me … I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with him."
"Other gods, you mean?" The Archmage voiced out what Baiyi did not want to say. "It makes sense, but it doesn't quite make sense. The War God is one of the gods, after all. I don't think he has any reason to tell you, a thorn in his side, to be careful of your companions."
"That's hard to say. I'm just a thorn in that god's side," Baiyi said, raising his chin at the setting sun. "And this War God seems to have a good temper. He didn't even react when I snatched his handmaiden away right in front of him. "
"Tsk tsk. How are you so sure that you snatched her away and that he didn't give it to you on purpose? Look, he even chose a flavor that you like, "the Lich Walker suddenly interjected.
"Huh? That makes sense, isn't it? Still, Attie might be cute, but she's not my cup of tea, is she? " Baiyi said, looking down at the War God's Sword in his hand. Then, he took a risk and sent a part of his consciousness into it.
The War God's Sword, which had not responded to him for a long time, suddenly shot out a red and blue blade of light from its hilt. The shape of the blade remained the same, except that red and blue each took up half of the blade, making it look like a two-colored ice cream bar.
"Oh, oh, oh! You can actually use this sword? "A cry of surprise suddenly came from the void.
"Yes, and it looks like it's even more powerful than before," Baiyi said, pointing at the two-colored blade of light. "What about the extra color? That's probably the Law Fragment's doing. "
"What did you find out about that Law Fragment? Did you learn anything from it? "The Archmage asked.
"This is probably a Space Law Fragment, a tiny piece of the entire Space Law. It's about the size of a sugar cube," Baiyi replied. Baiyi replied. "I don't have any existing theories to support this conclusion. It's just what I think, or rather, what it tells me to think."
"That means this is a genuine Law Fragment. Don't forget, a Law is a concept, and a concept's purpose is to tell you what it is," the Scholar Walker said. "It's both simple and complicated at the same time."
"Still, other than adding a little color to the War God's Sword, I haven't found any other use for it. It's too small to be of much value," Baiyi said.
"No, no, no. You're wrong, my student," the Archmage corrected his student. "The fact that you can touch it, understand it, and understand how the Law should be, is the greatest reward you've gained. This is also the most important message the War God wanted to convey to you." "Yes, that's right.
We've been studying the Law all this time, even to the point of being exiled into the Void, and yet we've never touched it. Sir Hope, you've learned a lot, "the Apprentice Walker said in an envious tone.
"Is that so? That's true. But then again, the War God has given me so many benefits. He's given me the Law Fragment, his people, and his equipment. What does he want from me? I thought I'd have to fight the War God or his servants when I took back the talismans, but it seems like he's just giving them to me, "Baiyi said.
