Chapter 414
414 Chapter 414, a heavy pen
“These are the most basic runic information, the foundation of the cultivation of runes. This is just like the original characters, the later complex runes are all evolved from it…”
Yang Tian flipped through the pages while the strange program explained in his mind.
After spending about half an hour, Yang Tian had finished flipping through the entire runic book.
It shouldn’t be that Yang Tian had finished flipping through the entire book, but rather that the strange program had memorized the entire book of runes.
While flipping through the pages, Yang Tian counted a total of forty-nine pages. On each page, there were around a hundred or so runes.
The total number of runes was around four thousand or so.
This was even less than the number of Chinese characters created by humans on Earth. However, each basic rune could evolve into tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of changes.
“If I want to remember him, how long will it take?”After flipping through it, Yang Tian asked the strange program in his mind.
The strange program said, “You didn’t even look at it carefully. You’ll understand after looking at it carefully.”
“Alright!”Yang Tian said helplessly.
As the information about runes became more and more abundant, the intelligence of the strange program also became more and more human-like.
Yang Tian flipped to the first page again and read through the runes on the first page before memorizing them in his mind.
Then, Yang Tian closed the book and began to recall the contents of the runes on the first page.
What made Yang Tian feel strange was that after only a few seconds, these runes that he thought he had memorized had already become blurry.
Thus, Yang Tian began to try a second time.
After doing this three times, Yang Tian was a little discouraged. This was because three times in a row, he still couldn’t remember the runes on the first page.
Yang Tian had to admit that he really didn’t have any talent in the Dao of runes.
Yang Tian thought for a moment and let out a long breath.
It was impossible for a person to take all the benefits.
He had the little Azure Dragon, a beautiful goddess wife, origin force, and a strange program… any one of these were things that others dreamed of.
But Yang Tian took all of them.
If he learned the Dao of runes, it would really be heaven-defying. Thinking of this, Yang Tian felt very satisfied.
If he really didn’t have any talent in the Dao of runes, then forget it.
Actually, Yang Tian didn’t think of one point, which was that he was already proficient in the Dao of runes. It was just indirect.
It was like humans using computers to write software. If they just typed binary code and wrote one by one, they probably wouldn’t be able to type out a complex software in their entire lifetime.
But using computer programming tools, they could be completed very quickly.
And the strange program was equivalent to Yang Tian’s ‘programming tool.’As long as he communicated with the strange program in his brain, the strange program would be able to help him solve the difficult problems regarding runes.
When Yang Tian flipped through the runic book in his hand, the little azure dragon’s eyes widened from time to time as it looked at the book in Yang Tian’s hand. It didn’t even know why the book in Yang Tian’s hand would cause it to have such a strong desire to devour it.
When Yang Tian flipped through the book again and closed it, the little azure dragon finally could not hold it in any longer. Its head enlarged and it held the book in Yang Tian’s hand in its mouth. It raised its head and swallowed it.
Yang Tian did not blame the little azure dragon for its behavior. He was just very curious.
He did not know why the Little Dragon wanted to devour the book so badly.
“Little Dragon, What’s Wrong?”Yang Tian patted the little azure dragon’s head and asked worriedly.
“Zhi Zhi Zhi…”it told Yang Tian that it was fine and that it really wanted to sleep.
The Little Azure Dragon said that it was fine, so it was definitely fine. Yang Tian was relieved.
Now that the book was gone, Yang Tian could only bite the bullet and come to the Flying Cloud High Priest. He scratched his head and said, “High Priest, the book is gone.”
Even if he didn’t want to guess, he knew that the book must be very precious. Otherwise, the little azure dragon wouldn’t have swallowed it.
The Flying Cloud High Priest opened his eyes and said calmly, “You are not as smart as your beast pet.”
Yang Tian didn’t understand what the Flying Cloud High Priest meant. He could only open his eyes wide and look at the Flying Cloud High Priest.
“Then, have you memorized it?”The Flying Cloud High Priest didn’t even raise his head to look at Yang Tian and asked again.
“I have memorized it,”Yang Tian answered affirmatively.
The high priest said, “Then write it down. If you make a mistake, I will roast your beast pet and eat it.”
It seemed that the high priest was very concerned about this book! Otherwise, he would not have said such vicious words.
After saying that, the high priest took out forty-nine thin pages of white paper from his storage bracelet. These sheets of paper were emitting a pale yellow glow. One look and one could tell that they were extremely precious. One did not know what material they were made of.
Other than the paper, there was also a pen.
This pen was extremely large. It was shaped like a pencil and was about a meter long and ten centimeters in diameter.
When Yang Tian took the pen from the high priest, he felt that it was extremely heavy. He estimated that it weighed more than a thousand kilograms.
An ordinary person would not be able to move such a heavy pen. However, the Flying Cloud High Priest wanted Yang Tian to use this pen to write runes on the paper.
If he wanted to write, he could only hold it with both hands.
Looking at the solemn expression of the Flying Cloud High Priest, he might make a mistake. In his anger, he might really roast the little azure dragon and eat it.
As Yang Tian held this huge pen, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
It seemed that this matter had to be completed properly. If this old man wasn’t joking, then things wouldn’t be easy.
Yang Tian didn’t immediately start writing on the paper. Instead, he carefully observed the pen.
The pen was engraved with densely packed runes, and all of them protruded out of the pen.
Although he didn’t remember the runes in the book from before, Yang Tian had a sense of familiarity with these runes.
It seemed that the runes on this brush were the runes in the book from before.
High Priest Feiyun said at this moment, “This is the rune brush that I made. Every meteorite in the shattered bubble space and on the wall of that palace… all the runes were carved with a brush.”
After saying this, high priest Feiyun closed his eyes again.
In fact, when Yang Tian said that he had memorized all the runes in the book, the High Priest Feiyun’s eyes were filled with surprise.
If Yang Tian was telling the truth, there were two possibilities.
One was that Yang Tian had memorized these runes before, and the other possibility was that Yang Tian had a powerful memory for runes.
Even though that book was filled with the most basic runes, even an ordinary human would be able to remember its shape if they were separated and written on it.
As for the book that was given to Yang Tian earlier, the runes on it were deliberately arranged by the Flying Cloud High Priest after he had calculated it.
Together with the special paper, there was a mysterious power that could affect a person’s memory ability.
The Flying Cloud High Priest did this to increase the difficulty. This was because he felt that the harder it was to learn, the more profound the impression would be after learning it.
If Yang Tian knew about the flying cloud high priest’s thoughts, he would definitely complain. Who would want to increase the difficulty of their learning for no reason.
