Battle of the Two Cities: From Zaun to the Void

Chapter 2 Rune Power
Du Wenkai was trapped in the glass petri dish and could not break free.

He watched as Singed came forward with a syringe.

What to do
Du Wenkai's whole body tensed up, and he subconsciously took a step back.

But the petri dish itself was not big, so he hit the glass wall directly, making a "dong" sound.

"Relax."

Xingjid looked at the tense Du Wenkai and deftly pushed out the air in the syringe.

"This is just a shot of nutrition to enrich your deficient body."

As he spoke, Singed opened a lid on the front of the glass petri dish, revealing a rubber covering the size of a marble.

This is the injection port, and there is a catheter in the mouth, which is directly inserted into Du Wenkai's arm.

Nutrients can be injected and blood can be drawn.

Singed pushed the milky white nutrient solution into the injection port, and it flowed along the catheter all the way into Du Wenkai's blood vessel.

After the injection, instead of stopping, Singed took out a syringe again, stuck it into the injection port and began to draw blood.

"What are you going to do?"

Seeing his own blood being drawn out, Du Wenkai struggled vigorously, but the other end of the catheter was firmly fixed on his arm, and he couldn't break free no matter what.

Singed sneered, "Don't worry, I'm just doing a blood test. If there is no problem, I can let you out."

After speaking, Singed inserted the syringe fiercely.

At the moment when blood began to be drawn.

Singed's personal attributes suddenly appeared before Du Wenkai's eyes!

"Name: Singed (Domination Department)"

"Level: T8"

"Runes: 1. Ghost Poro, 2. Eyeball Collector"

Du Wenkai stopped struggling, and allowed Singed to draw blood, and at the same time began to recall the runer system in memory.

When human civilization was just born.

A genius discovered the secret of runes and discovered a way to practice by relying on runes.

Rune users who relied on the power of runes began to shine, constantly surpassing the limits of human bodies, chasing wind and lightning, moving mountains and filling seas, and were omnipotent.

What's more, by relying on the power of runes, he defeated the Protoss, climbed Mount Targon and gained eternal life.

There are disadvantages as well as advantages.

Many rune users blindly pursue speed when absorbing runes, or their minds are not firm enough to withstand the influence of the power of runes, gradually lose their minds, and become veritable monsters.

In order to avoid this phenomenon, people grouped the runes into five categories, thus forming a system of five series and nine levels of runes.

The five departments are Precision, Domination, Witchcraft, Enlightenment, and Resolute.

In addition to the five series of runes, there are also some less effective attribute runes.

The nine levels are T9, T8 and T1.

Each level can only absorb one rune, and the absorbed runes must be of the same type, or non-type attribute runes.

Singed's level is T8, and he has absorbed two runes. Ordinary people can't pose any threat to him.

Having a preliminary understanding of Singed's strength, Du Wenkai calmed down.

It didn't take long.

After analyzing the liquid sample, Singed walked back quickly.

"The blood is normal."

Warwick, who had been following along, read out the content of the report, and asked impatiently:
"Does this mean that the transformation has been successful?"

Singed: "No, the modified body is already threatening to a certain extent. It can only be considered successful after thorough brainwashing. Now you go to prepare lunch first, and I will prepare tools."

brainwashing?

Du Wenkai's heart turned cold.

Being brainwashed means being controlled by Singed for the rest of his life.

This is absolutely unbearable!

The only way to escape from this place is to rely on the system.

Seeing the two walk out of the room, Du Wenkai clicked in towards the system mall without hesitation.

"Ding~"

"The system mall is open, please pay attention to check the novice gift package!"

Before his eyes, the system mall appeared.

"Open the gift bag."

Du Wenkai said to the system.

After a flash of light, the novice gift bag was opened.

A small crystal appeared in the backpack column.

Du Wenkai took a closer look, and it turned out to be a rune!
"Perfect Timing"

"Effect: Rune power +50"

"Perfect Timing: After killing an enemy, the cooldown of 'Steal' is reduced by 10%."

"Frozen: You will not be able to move, attack, or receive any damage. The duration is 1 second. Rune power consumption: 100, cooling time: 120 seconds."

"Branch: Skillful Tools"

Du Wenkai revealed the rune and held it in his hand.

This is a palm-sized dark blue round cake-shaped sign.

There is a stopwatch engraved on it, which keeps moving with time, exactly the same as the runes in the game!
Just when Du Wenkai took the rune out of his backpack.

The system notification sounded.

"It is detected that the host has obtained the rune, has it started to absorb it?"

"absorb!"

brush--

In an instant, the rune in his hand turned into a blue stream of light, penetrated into his body and disappeared.

According to the memory in his mind, Du Wenkai forced himself to abandon all thoughts and began to meditate with his eyes closed.

But for a moment.

He entered the state, his vision was completely black, his five senses were turned off, and he could only sense a little light blue light, right in front of him.

He tried to draw the pale blue light into himself.

But it seemed that there was a huge repulsive force, which made him twitch uncontrollably.

"Hold on!"

"If we make a mistake at this time, we will most likely fail."

Du Wenkai forced himself to calm down, locked on the light blue light spot with his thoughts, and forcibly pulled him in.

This time.

He felt a reaction from the light blue light spot, which produced a strong suction force and grabbed him fiercely.

Like a high-speed car slamming on the brakes, Du Wenkai suddenly rushed forward.

Then, the suction of the light blue light spot continued to grow, dragging his soul.

at this time.

Du Wenkai was like a victim hanging alone on the sea, swinging from side to side in the storm formed by the suction, it was difficult to stand still.

Gradually.

He felt that the light blue light spots began to melt and began to inject into his body.

A cold and refreshing feeling quickly filled his whole body.

Just like passing by the sun-baked square in the dog days and hiding in the air-conditioned shopping mall, the whole body is comfortable, and every pore is breathing smoothly.

The light blue light spots melted quickly, and all of them merged into Du Wenkai's body.

"Buzz!"

It was as if a bell was ringing next to Du Wenkai's ear.

He had a clear realization in an instant, his consciousness sank rapidly, he exited the state of meditation, and slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment.

His vision was blurry, like a person with high myopia, everything he saw was blurry.

But his consciousness is very clear, relying on brain supplementation, he can restore everything around him, and his brain computing power has increased by at least three times.

At this moment, he became a T9 level talisman!
