To most of the rune sorcerers, the barrier was a relatively high-end thing. Because of the fixed nature of the runes, although it brought convenience and simplicity, it also limited the flexibility of the runes. Everyone knew very well what kind of effect each rune could have and what kind of effect it would have when they were connected together. Of course, it was much easier to decipher it.
On the other hand, the barrier that was set up using a formation was full of uncertainty and confusion. Just a slight change in the runes could cause a completely different effect, let alone the various combinations. A formation barrier compared to a rune barrier was like an abstract painting compared to an engineering drawing. It might not look that complicated but it was mysterious and obscure, making it difficult to understand.
That was why Baiyi's question had stumped a lot of Soul Armatures. After all, the iconic formation sorcerers of the Ancient Rohlserlian Empire were very rare nowadays. It had been more than 6000 years since the fall of that empire. Those who were strong enough to be a Soul Armature had long become a Soul Armature.
"Haha! Look at these mediocre people! They only know how to play with those useless runes! That's why I've been emphasizing to you that we, the Rohlserlian sorcerers, are the real orthodox sorcerers!" The Archmage said proudly.
Of course, such an arrogant statement would cause some dissatisfaction. There were many Voidwalkers who dared to question the authority of the First Walker. For example, the Scholar, the Seventeenth Walker who had devoted her whole life to compiling runes, immediately expressed her disagreement, "Although I've said it many times before, I still have to repeat myself! Not to be disrespectful but I still think that Your Majesty should take rune magic seriously. It's not as useless as you think it is! If there were more sorcerers under your command, even if it were just some rune sorcerers, I'm afraid the territory of the Ancient Rohlserlian Empire would be a few times bigger than it is now! "
Hearing her words, the Fourteenth Walker, the Sorcerer, also expressed his opinion, "Both of you have a point. But in my opinion, the path that I took back then is more scientific and reasonable! I can only blame the Sorcerers Association for being so blind! How could they say that I'm a crooked path?! "
After all, the Scholar was one of the main promoters of rune magic in the past. She was the biggest contributor to the dominance of rune magic in the academic world. It was understandable that she would have a different opinion about it. But, you little sorcerer, you should just forget about it! I wasn't wrong to call you a heretic! The group of mages that you formed back then was made up of a bunch of muscleheads. Not only did they wear heavy armor, but they also used illumination spells to dazzle people's eyes while wielding swords and meteor hammers to kill people. Is this the path of mages? Those who did not know better would have thought that they had encountered a heavy armored infantry regiment! Baiyi cursed inwardly.
"Shallow! How shallow! Let me ask you, what is the meaning of magic? Wasn't it for the sake of victory? It's just that my understanding of magic is more flexible and profound than yours! "The Sorcerer said, unconvinced.
"People like you are really shallow, right? Magic was undoubtedly an art! It wasn't just a simple killing technique! You barbarian! "
"Hehe! I agree with Sir Little Mage's point of view. Spells are just a simple method, and necromancy spells are obviously the best among them. "
"You evil Lich! Justice will punish you! "
Just like that, the originally good atmosphere began to turn sour. What was originally a discussion between programmers about Java and C + + was quickly expanded into a battle between two factions. The smell of gunpowder began to spread in the Void.
The Voidwalkers were such contradictory existences. They came from different backgrounds, stood on different sides, and their way of thinking was even more different. If it was not for Baiyi, who was a special existence, they would not be able to come together even if they had the same goal of escaping from the Void.
Fortunately, Baiyi was their spokesperson and he had a wealth of experience in dealing with such situations. This kind of quarrel had happened countless times in the past thousands of years, so he was already used to it.
For that reason, he simply used his consciousness to simulate a game and threw the few guys who were arguing the loudest into it. The quarrel instantly stopped.
"Oh? So it's this game? Very good, this is what I'm good at, "The Archmage said confidently and then chose a character called Shimada Bro.
"Looks like we have to put aside our quarrels for now and face the enemy together," The Scholar chimed in and decisively chose a character called Shimada Bro.
The Devil Walker chose a healing character that could fly in the sky, the Paladin chose a beautiful girl who could pilot a mecha, the Sorcerer chose a gigantic road hog and the Caveman chose a skinny cripple … After the Blacksmith chose a robot that could transform, the game began and the two parties representing their respective factions began another round of fierce battle.
It was obviously a dispute that was caused by the Sorcerer. Why are these guys from the Physical School getting involved? Is it purely for the sake of playing a game? Also, Sir Blacksmith, why didn't you choose that turret dwarf who looks like you? Baiyi grumbled in his heart.
While the quarrel between the Voidwalkers was resolved by Baiyi using the game, the retired workers, oh no, the Soul Armatures in the real world continued to speculate about his true identity. Most of them thought that he must be a strong person who had received systematic education from the Rohserlian sorcerers. But when they thought about his attainments in repairing, they felt that something was not quite right. The status of a Rohserlian sorcerer was much higher than that of a sorcerer. It was impossible for them to lower their status and become a blacksmith.
"Are you a Rohserlian sorcerer?" One of the Soul Armatures asked straightforwardly, "It's rare to see someone like you. I just didn't expect you to have such a profound attainment in forging as well."
"It doesn't matter what I was before. Right now, I'm just a remnant soul that's struggling at death's door." Baiyi replied in a low-key manner, "As for forging and repairing, you can just treat them as my hobbies."
Since Baiyi refused to tell them, the others did not dare to pry too deeply into his secrets. After all, everyone had their own secrets. Baiyi had cleverly exploited the awe and fear of the unknown in the hearts of the people, and once again, the image of him as an enigmatic and mysterious being was deepened in the hearts of the people.
Of course, it was not his intention to show off in front of the others. His real intention was actually the Soul Armature who revealed the news earlier.
"Oh right! Since you're so knowledgeable about barriers, Master Hope, perhaps the academy might need some help from you," The Soul Armature suddenly said.
"Oh? What's that? "Baiyi pretended to be ignorant.
"It's like this. There's also a complicated enchantment on the inheritance that's suspected to be from the Sage Vagabond. Currently, no one in the academy has been able to crack it. It's causing a lot of trouble," The Soul Armature said again.
Just as I expected! Baiyi sighed inwardly. When he first heard that it was left behind by the Explorer, he immediately thought of that possibility. The Explorer had spent his entire life dealing with all kinds of enchantments. Even the enchantment game was proposed by him. So, the treasure that was left behind must have some of those things as well. Judging from the current academic level, it would not be easy to crack the enchantment.
That was the breakthrough that he was talking about earlier. It was also the real reason why he threw out the game. Without any hesitation, he said, "If that's the case, then I can try to provide some help."
"If that's the case, then that's great! Master Hope is indeed a warm-hearted man. Please allow me to pass this barrier to the academy and convey your thoughts," said the Soul Armature respectfully as he held the blue orb in his hand. "That's right. You're right.
Baiyi nodded his head silently. Suddenly, he thought of a detail and asked, "But there's one thing that I'm curious about. Why do you care so much about these things? As far as I know, your practitioner is still in his third year, right? "
"Ahahaha! Well, it's like this. The student from the Golden Chrysanthemum class who found this treasure is currently pursuing my practitioner. That's why I know about this. He also said that if he could get anything from the treasure, he would share it with my practitioner," The Soul Armature quickly explained.
So that's how it is? Well, that makes sense now. Every Soul Armature hopes that their practitioner can become stronger … Eh? Wait a minute! Isn't your Soul Armature Practitioner a boy? I've seen him before. Even though he looks a little more delicate and cute, he's still a real boy, isn't he?
"What does it matter? This is an era of openness, Master Hope. How can two people of different genders date each other? "The Soul Armature said calmly.
Motherf * cking gay! Disgusting! No wonder he's from the Golden Chrysanthemum class! Baiyi thought to himself. He decided to keep Mia-chan away from the students in that class in the future.
Actually … In the era where the level of civilization on Earth was similar to this world, the acceptance level of this kind of thing was much higher than the modern world. In this aspect, the two worlds were quite similar.
But this is still too disgusting! Baiyi thought to himself as he quickly found an excuse to leave. However, before he could take a few steps, he heard the Archmage who was still in the middle of a fierce battle whispering to him, "My dear student, we can't hold on any longer. Please help us …"
Didn't you say that you're good at this kind of game?
"No, no, no! I'm still good at card drawing and card collecting games! Anyway, please help me! Otherwise, the Justice Faction is going to lose again!" The Archmage boasted shamelessly.
Ever since I stopped playing with you guys, the Justice Faction hasn't won much, right? A bunch of weaklings! They're so weak! Baiyi thought to himself. Still, he fulfilled his teacher's request and helped them.
