Chapter 231 Human Alchemy Magic
With practical alchemy practice about to begin, Moran wondered if it would be more convenient to learn an alchemical spell in advance.

She now has a better understanding of alchemical magic.

Besides alchemy itself, there are many other types of magic derived from runes.

This type of magic also has another name: human alchemy magic.

This type of magic involves drawing alchemical runes on a part of the human body to achieve a temporary magical amplification effect.

However, only a few individual runes and rune combinations can be drawn on the human body, and they are not permanent, so they are classified as alchemical magic.

The Rune Eye is a type of magic that centers on "revealing" runes.

By drawing "revealing" runes on the eyelids, the hidden runes can be seen.

There are several methods for inscribing alchemical runes. The most basic is carving with a knife, a slightly more advanced method is drawing with a brush, and the most advanced method is directly outlining with magic power.

Carvings and strokes can be seen with the naked eye, while those drawn with magic can be seen with an energy field of vision.

However, magical items that can be observed to have runes or traces of rune energy are inherently at risk of being destroyed.

Following the runes, each destruction is precise.

Even with some protection, it cannot withstand precise strikes.

Therefore, most magical items are enhanced with stealth runes to provide an extra layer of protection.

The Rune Eye Technique is a magic that can see through this layer of protection, making hidden runes, rune combinations, magic circles, and energy circuits visible in one's field of vision.

It can both help destroy alchemical runes and help repair and draw alchemical runes.

If I could learn that, I'd definitely be able to make magical items much easier.

However, alchemical magic like the Rune Eye cannot be drawn with a carving knife or pen; it can only be drawn directly with magic power.

Magic drawing is the most difficult of all drawing methods. It requires a thorough understanding of the meaning of the rune itself and its form, and there can be no mistakes.

Generally speaking, one only attempts human alchemy after mastering a certain level of alchemy and becoming proficient in using magic to draw runes.

Given Moran's current level of understanding of runes, it's not really suitable for her to learn them.

Fortunately, the failure to draw the "reveal" rune will not produce any serious side effects like other single-target runes.

At most, if you make too many mistakes, your eyelids may become slightly swollen, which can be relieved by applying ice.

The Eye of the Rune spell is the easiest human alchemy magic to learn, and it's also the most recommended first spell for witches learning human alchemy.

It was precisely because the side effects were minor and could be resolved that Moran had the courage to try it ahead of time.

Of course, she still had some confidence.

There are only two requirements for drawing runes with magic: understanding the appearance and meaning of runes.

Needless to say, she knew exactly what the visible runes looked like.

The meaning of the runes is not a problem.

Although I haven't finished reading all the alchemy books yet, I've read quite a few.

You don't need to fully understand all the meanings of the runes to draw magic; about 50% is enough.

Moran has read so many books that he has accumulated a lot of alchemical formulas in his mind. After organizing them a little, he can understand the rune "Manifestation" to the point that he has enough magic power to draw it without much problem.

After all, she only learned single-target runes, which required a lot of work and a lot of material accumulation. But once she mastered them, her understanding was naturally stronger than that of the average witch who only had a vague general impression after learning single-target runes.

With her eyes closed, she organized all the alchemical blueprints for the manifestation runes in her mind and analyzed the role of each rune.

Her mind works much faster than her eyes can see.

Even with a lot of material to analyze and think about, she only spent a few hours initially organizing it. Worried it wouldn't be enough, she brainstormed for a while longer.

Finally, after drawing a few "manifested" runes on the paper and finding that they were basically copied and pasted from his memory, formed in one stroke without any problems, Moran faced the water mirror, opened one eye and closed the other, and mobilized his magic power to transform it into a branch of the gold elemental power—the power of runes.

Then let the runic power flow steadily and slowly across your eyelids, forming a "visible" rune.

Mobilizing magic is not difficult, nor is drawing a "manifestation" rune, but controlling the magic to flow steadily along a fixed trajectory on the eyelids is not easy.

Her magic was either too strong or too weak, and sometimes it wasn't stable enough.

If anything is wrong, it can't be used. It can only guide the metal element to disperse, which can alleviate the discomfort of the eyelids.

If this one is drawn incorrectly, draw another one.

Alternate between the two eyes.

However, unlike what the book said, she did not need to apply ice to relieve her eyelid discomfort.

Despite making multiple mistakes in her drawing, Moran's eyes showed no problems whatsoever.

This gave her more opportunities to try and fail.

Single-character text is inherently simple and can be completed in one stroke.

Moran is also very good at summarizing his experiences and lessons, and his paintings get better and better each time.

They managed to draw a stable "manifestation" rune.

But it wasn't over yet. After checking the integrity of the rune, Moran calmed his breathing slightly, then covered it with magic and gently pushed it.

The entire visible rune was pushed under the eyelids and attached to the eyeball.

Only at this point is the Talisman Eye Technique considered complete.

Opening his left eye, which was afflicted by a talismanic spell, he saw that the ordinary earthen walls of the dormitory had changed.

"Good heavens, what kind of magic circle is this? Such a vast area of ​​runic power! I've never seen the rune combination before, it looks so complicated!"

Moran immediately called the dean.

"This is a 'One-Click Restore Magic Circle,' developed during the previous dean's tenure. The previous dean was in his prime and was still making money off this stuff..."

Before she could finish speaking, Moran understood.

Witches are very generous with their inheritances, donating them whenever they want. But if a witch is young, then sorry, it's all private property, and making it public is out of the question.

It's perfectly normal that Moran hadn't seen their signature skills before.

Even though she can see runes now, her observation capabilities are still limited at the apprentice level.

They can roughly decipher the runes on basic alchemy items.

Judging from the range of the runic power and the number of runes she could observe, this magic circle was at least top-tier.

The number of runes she didn't observe was likely much greater, and the level of the magic circle was simply unimaginable.

However, no matter how well one learns the Rune Eye technique, one cannot discern the drawing path, combination method, or combination principle of alchemical rune combinations.

If you have a good understanding of individual runes, you can even guess the function of this magic circle based on the runes.

However, it is impossible to draw it yourself without alchemy blueprints.

Such a complex magic circle, you must have put in so much effort to figure it out yourself!

The previous dean must have been quite a remarkable witch.
