Douluo see you soon

The city lord didn't quite understand what Cheng Ying said. What do you mean that only the runes he knows are meaningful? Don't these runes exist in nature?

However, he more or less had his own understanding of some of the ancient precepts followed in the city, so after being confused at the beginning, he actually guessed something.

"You mean that these runes were not born naturally. They were created by our ancestors. They only created these runes, so we can only use these, right?"

Cheng Ying showed an uncertain expression on his face: "I don't know exactly how many runes your ancestors created, but at least it should be more than the number of runes you have now. This is almost certain.

."

"Since the number of runes created by our ancestors is more than what we have today, those lost runes should be able to be rediscovered and used by us."

"No, the runes of creation are not what you think. These runes are not universal in all places, but can only be used to fight against your darkness.

These runes have power only because you believe in them. And those runes that have been forgotten have naturally lost their power.

You should be able to understand the meaning of what I am saying. The runes themselves have no power, just like the amulets of your army. They were just ordinary items at the beginning. Only the people in the army believed in these.

If the amulet has power, then they will truly have power.

In the same way, the same is true for runes. Only if you believe that the runes have power will they have it. But for those that have been forgotten by you, no one believes that they have power. Naturally, even if they are rummaged through ancient ruins again,

When it comes out, each effect is extremely weak.

Unless you widely publicize these runes found in ancient books and make everyone believe in their role, then his power can be restored. But for such a lost world, for such an exchange of information and its

In a blocked world, this kind of thing is almost impossible to do.”

After the city lord heard this speculation, he also showed an ugly expression on his face. He had always known that the rune body he was using was actually incomplete and had many defects.

The number of runes itself is not very large, and some runes with important functions are missing. Some facilities and formations with important functions cannot be arranged.

Originally, he was looking forward to searching for those lost runes through experiments and searching ancient books. As long as those things are found, the security of the camp will be greatly increased. The number of people the city can accommodate will also be greatly increased, forming a benign

cycle.

But now that I think about it, all the efforts I have done are probably in vain. There may be such runes in history, but even if I really find them, there is no point.

"Don't be so discouraged. At least you know a possible way to use the power of your beliefs. Maybe you can try to make runes and add a certain rune to today's education system, but don't allow this rune for the time being.

Any application of the rune would only allow it to appear in textbooks, and then let it expand little by little into cities. Eventually it would be known to all mankind, and this rune would appear.

Although the difficulty of this kind of thing is almost impossible, if you try, there is always a chance. And if you succeed once, it will become much easier the second time and the third time.

Definitely searching for the once-lost runes, this established and feasible method, is actually a more meaningful existence.

As long as you can succeed, you can keep repeating it. Maybe you can really rely on this method to restore your past prosperity."

"It's difficult. The human population is now very small. Although this city alone accounts for a large proportion of the entire human population, if, as you said, people need to firmly believe in something, it can really

If the power of existence exists, then I am afraid that what is needed is not just a large number of people on the spatial scale to firmly believe this. It also requires countless people on the time scale to persistently firmly believe in this. These ancient runes have been passed down to this day and have experienced

It took thousands of years to achieve the stable and reliable performance it has today. However, for a newly born rune, the instability of its performance itself will become an obstacle for people to believe in it. When the content in the textbook and what happens in reality

When things are contradictory, people will always believe what happened in reality, and over time those fantasies will probably gradually collapse.

In fact, a similar situation has already occurred. I didn't realize that several runes began to become unstable before. What happened? Now that I think about it, it may be the beginning of the collapse."

The city lord began to tell the two people about recent events in the city: "In recent years, several runes have played a role in the formation, and instability has begun to appear. At first, we thought it was the rise of dark forces.

gush.

Later, I discovered that the situation was different from what we imagined. It was only after you reminded me that I realized that the problem might not occur externally, but in the runes themselves. Fortunately, the abnormalities in these runes were just

A sign has just appeared. It is still too late to try to stop the spread of the news. I will find some people who are not very good at runes and cannot detect these abnormalities to become my personal soldiers, and then go and fight with the people in the city.

Residents claimed that the runes were functioning normally and the problems were simply caused by the carvers making the wrong runes.

As for those who can really understand these runes, they can really realize that they have begun to exist unstable. I had a relatively good relationship with them before, but now I have to shut them up.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It must be made clear to everyone that the runes are declining, otherwise once it enters a vicious cycle, there will be no way to recover. In this way

If so, the control of information can actually affect the effects of runes to a considerable extent. As long as we control public opinion to a certain extent, it is not impossible to create new runes.

In this case..." The city lord of the Burning City was thinking a lot at this time, many of which were related to the future of the entire city. And these may even be related to the future of the entire human race.

To really do this, he must get in touch with other city lords.

But this is quite difficult in a dark world. His army still has many things to do, such as escorting students from various places back, or searching for necessary supplies in the dark.

The cities here are not plundering other towns and villages. Instead, they are providing supplies to villages and towns in various places relatively cheaply. Human beings are scattered in different market towns. The biggest reason is that if they gather together, the surrounding areas cannot feed them. In the end, they are still

It needs to rely on some fungi that can grow in the light to support itself, and the range that a city can illuminate and the number of people it can support are also limited.

Therefore, it must be separated to allow the light to occupy a larger area and be used to feed more people. The same separation also means that further areas can be explored and more ancient materials can be obtained. And what those remote towns do is use

Take your own food to the real city to exchange for other supplies you need.

In places where the population is not so concentrated, food is often relatively rich, but other daily necessities are relatively scarce. Therefore, it is necessary to go to the city to purchase. In turn, if the city is separated from these tribes or even towns, they will often lose their plant sources.

, and had to reduce the population in the city.

Therefore, the army is always busy, always needing to search for supplies in the nearby ruins and escort the supplies to various towns and even tribes.

Only a few people can serve as liaisons to contact different cities, and when these people are dispatched, it is usually when an emergency occurs that affects the future of the entire civilization.

Faced with this emergency situation, the city lord finally made his own decision, sent personnel to investigate, went to other cities, and informed other city lords of his guess.

If you want to travel such a long distance between cities with a small number of people, you need some relatively special equipment.

According to legend, there are ten artifacts on this planet. People who hold these artifacts can not be afraid of the darkness. They can even illuminate a huge area in the darkness, and these artifacts can maintain light forever in the darkness.

Such an artifact was preserved in the City of Yesterday, and the two of them were lucky enough to visit the city's treasure house to visit the artifact. It was a cane that didn't look special, but was made of a kind of weapon that was once very common.

Carved from trees. The handle on the hand looks like a dragon head holding a bead in the mouth, which seems to be natural crystal.

This thing was not very precious in the industrial age. It could be easily manufactured in any factory. But in this doomsday world, this is indeed a very exquisite handicraft, and when it is taken out, it can

See the shimmer of light emanating from the surface of this cane.

"This is one of the top ten artifacts preserved in our city, the dragon-headed cane. Before, we didn't realize why we need to hold an artifact exhibition every year, let the artifacts tour around the city, and even send people to carry the artifacts.

Tour around various villages and towns.

Now we may understand why this is? This is not a simple artifact, but means to let everyone know the existence of the artifact.

Only if someone knows the existence of the artifact can the magical power be maintained. If it is kept in the treasure house without people knowing about it, then his strength may slowly disappear over time and eventually become a

An ordinary object."

Cheng Ying picked up this so-called artifact and observed it. The city lord did not object. The artifact was not something untouchable. It was quite solid in nature and would not be damaged by touching it.

On the contrary, their artifacts were often used and even damaged during the process, but after being repaired secretly, they looked the same as before, and their divine power did not decrease after repairs.

Cheng Ying picked up the handle and observed it carefully, and found that the long years actually left many traces on it, but after people repaired it, these traces were erased bit by bit, at least it looked like

It always looks brand new, and this thing is really no ordinary thing.

"You may have had a misunderstanding. Didn't you think that this artifact itself was nothing special, but people thought it was powerful, so it had great power? The facts are slightly different from what you guessed.

This thing itself does have certain special abilities.

The wood he used to hit him was the root neck of an extraordinary plant. It was not particularly precious, but it also contained a certain degree of extraordinary power, and it was infused with the blood of a former strong human being. If I read it correctly,

There should be the blood of a legendary strongman in it."

"In that case, wouldn't the effectiveness of this artifact gradually weaken over time?" Although the city lord has never found that the effectiveness of this artifact has weakened, nor has he found that the artifact has been damaged due to aging, he still can't help but

Asked worriedly.

"The normal situation is like this, but I have to tell you that the current cane should not have any other extraordinary power except the power of your prayers. Five thousand years have been enough to make the materials used to build it and the original content inside it.

All the extraordinary powers have decayed, and I only restored his former appearance through the traces left on the cane.

Based on what I have guessed, I can roughly surmise that in ancient times, these artifacts themselves did not need to rely on the power of belief to possess powerful power.

And knowing that they themselves are just to give the belief a carrier is like if you take a random stick and tell everyone that it is an artifact, it will be difficult for everyone to believe it.

But if you enchant this stick and show it its powerful power several times before telling everyone that this stick is an artifact, the likelihood of everyone believing it will be much higher.

In this way, the power of faith is gathered on this artifact. Even if the artifact is damaged in the future and loses its original extraordinary power, it does not matter, because after the power of faith is completely gathered, he will no longer need ordinary

extraordinary power to maintain its own uniqueness.

If this is the case, it will be a bit difficult for you to create new artifacts.

You need to be like him to show the specialness of your artifact first, and then add the power of faith to the artifact bit by bit.

I can provide you with some help, such as giving you some blood. My blood contains much more power of order than yours, but I seem to understand why I can't contain the light in my body?
