Above the mage!

Chapter 132 The Foreseeable Future and the Unpredictable Ending
The six rules that the old man wrote in his notes were the results of his life-long research.

But it all ends with the last question below.

"where is the problem?"

Simply put, the six basic rules of runes have been "falsified" by the old man himself.

A magic circle that could be constructed and operated based on the rules and formulas he derived, but in reality, it failed.

Why did it fail? Where is the right direction?
This is the problem that Hosse O'Kenley has been thinking about and trying to solve over the years.

He could sense that he was only a thin layer away from success.

But like a young virgin, he kept wandering around the entrance, unable to enter.

The old man could feel that he had been wandering in a dead end all these years.

But knowing is one thing, and breaking out of your own thinking dilemma is another.

Every time at this time, the old man very much hopes to have a "companion".

In this way, perhaps we can find a new direction with the help of another person's different ideas.

Unfortunately, this is just wishful thinking.

Not to mention his companions, even the supporters standing behind him have never happened before. It’s not that this has never happened before. The old man thought of the memories from long ago, and his eyes unconsciously became moist again.

He quickly shook his head to dispel these memories and continued to focus on the manuscript in front of him.

This is just an ordinary piece of manuscript paper, but to Jose O'Kenley, a man who is over 300 years old, it is worth a fortune.

Because, the old man saw the shadow of his "companion" on this manuscript paper for the first time.

On the manuscript paper, Gao De used acceptable handwriting to accurately and clearly deduce the examples he wrote in his notes according to his six basic rules of runes.

As Gao De's thoughts continued, a gleam of light gradually appeared on He Xi's old face.

No one had ever accepted his research, and no one could understand his six basic rules of runes.

But today, it has.

Especially when he saw that Gode used special but concise strange symbols to simplify his rune formula and came up with a theoretically correct answer, a gratified smile appeared on the old man's face.

In the past, He Xi had never met a wizard who could accept his "heretical" ideas:

Not relying on personal strength, but just relying on a few theorems and calculations, he could deduce a magic circle on paper.

He Xi, who had just come up with the idea that "maybe there will be successors", soon stopped caring about these things.

Because he saw something even more shocking.

"Why did you fail?"

"There may be a disturbing constant C missing from the formula."

“q=E*n*C.”

Interference constant In He Xi's knowledge system, "constant" is an extremely unfamiliar coined word.

But the moment he saw the formula and the term "interference constant", he understood the meaning of the so-called constant.

The membrane that had troubled the old man for a long time was punctured at this moment.

Yes, he had discovered long ago that all magic circles whose formulas were successfully derived but failed in practice had one common feature, that is, the gap between the theoretical robustness value and the actual robustness value was always within a certain range.

Whenever it exceeds this range, it is like a "fault". If the formula calculation is successful, the reality will also be successful.

But the old man has never been able to figure out what the range is and where it comes from.

Now, after being enlightened by Gao De, the old man suddenly realized.

The magic circle can be repeated. If different people construct the same proven unfeasible magic circle, they will inevitably fail. It is not affected by the level of the rune master at all.

That means there must be a common factor affecting the success rate.

This factor should be the "interference constant" named by Gaode.

Who would have thought that a freshman who had never been exposed to runes could so easily solve the problem that had troubled He Xi, the chief rune instructor at Seres College, for many years.

The old man's tangled thoughts were finally sorted out at this moment.

Although Hossi O'Kenley knew that knowing the flaws of the formula did not mean that all problems had been solved.

It will take a lot of time, energy and methods to derive the specific value of this interference constant.

But the most important thing is that the most difficult thinking link has been opened up, and the rest is just "hard work".

The perfection of the rune formula is only a matter of time.

Because he understood the significance of the perfection of the rune formula, Hossi O'Kenley stood there in a daze, speechless for a long time.

Can it really be done?

When he was closest to success, this old man, who had always focused on his own business, felt "fearful" for the first time.

He was very scared, and finally found out that the so-called rune formula was just his fantasy and actually made no sense. Hessi O'Kenley closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Finally, he opened his eyes again, picked up the "manuscript paper" left by Gao De, and walked into the small room inside again.

The fatigue on the old man's face had completely disappeared at this moment.

After leaving the Gavin Building, which belonged to the Rune Department, Gao De first returned to Building 30 in the First Area, filled his water bag with "leak-proof water", and then set off for the training building.

He had no idea how much inspiration the formula and the sentence he left on the manuscript paper would bring to his mentor.

And
What kind of shock will it bring to the entire rune system.

Now Gao De only realized that if he did not seize the time to practice while the effect of "Leak-free Water" was still there, he would definitely feel sad.

In the training building, Gaode swiped his identity badge at the reception counter and rented a first-level training room for four hours at a cost of 1 gold.

In fact, the time most mages can spend practicing the Guiding Dharma is generally less than two hours a day, due to the limitations of their energy and mental strength.

Therefore, the rental fee for the practice room is charged based on two hours.

However, after drinking the "water without leakage", the duration of practice per day can be extended by half an hour.

So Gaode chose overtime.

But don't worry about wasting it.

Because according to the rules of the training building, if the rented training room is not used up in one go, the remaining time will not be reset, but will be recorded and retained for the next use.

"Training Room No. 11 on the fourth floor."

After paying the money, the receptionist held Gao De's identity badge in both hands and handed it back to him, and told him the training room number.

Gao De thanked him, went up to the fourth floor, and entered the training room No. 11 that he rented.

The magic node array in the training room is still activated through the identity badge.

Then Gaode saw the magic concentration displayed on the magic detector rising from the initial "3" to "48" and then stabilizing.

Knowing that the time had come, Gao De no longer hesitated. He immediately sat cross-legged, quickly entered a meditative state, and began to practice the Apprentice Guidance Method to guide the magic power into his body.

Compared with the basic training room, the first-level training room with a magic concentration of up to "48" can greatly benefit the training of mage apprentices.

Gao De could sense that the stardust representing magic power around him had become so dense that it had gathered into star clusters.

Every time he guided the magic power into his body, he attracted clusters of "star clusters" rather than individual "stardust".

That efficiency is unimaginable.

Nearly two hours later, Gao De, who had completed the training process, opened his eyes with a hint of fatigue in his eyes.

This meant that he had reached the limit of his practice time today, and continuing would be a waste of time.

But Gaode did not end his practice today.

He untied the water bag tied around his waist and opened the cork.

A strange and light fragrance has wafted out.

Putting the water bag to his mouth and gulping down a few big gulps, Gao De felt refreshed both physically and mentally, and the fatigue brought by the practice was much dispelled.

Having already witnessed the miraculous virtue of the leak-free water, he did not waste any more time admiring it, but instead entered into a state of cultivation once again.

Another half hour later.

Gao Decai completely ended his practice for today.

Practicing once in a first-level training room can improve one's progress to the same level as practicing nakedly four times. This efficiency is equivalent to drinking 80% of the basic magic potion, Gao De secretly calculated in his heart.

Of course, the effect of the first-level training room in assisting practice is still different from directly drinking magic potions.

After all, the former only increases the concentration of magic power in the environment, and you still have to rely on yourself to guide the magic power into your body.

The latter can directly generate magic power in the body after drinking, eliminating the step of "guiding it into the body"

But does that mean that a first-level training room is inferior to basic magic potions?
Not really.

The former only costs 10 silver coins to assist in one practice, while the latter requires 2 gold coins.

The cost difference is four times, but the efficiency difference is only 20%.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, the first-level training room is a clear winner.

"After drinking the water without leakage, I can practice the guiding method for another half an hour. With this half an hour, the progress of my practice is almost equal to six times of 'naked practice'." Gao De murmured.

If he could use the combination of 'Leak-proof Water' + 'First-Level Training Room' every day, his training speed would exceed that of drinking basic magic potions.

It’s a pity that the ‘leak-free water’ is only disposable.

"After I go back, I will drink all the remaining water of no leakage and see how many days its effect can last." Gao De made a secret decision.

Waste does not exist.
