Looking at the rune, Ron showed an expression of understanding.
The so-called eternal runes... It's runes that don't disappear!
It will last forever!
The runes of basic magic after formation and release are converted into elemental magic and dissipated, and the eternal rune at the moment of formation is imprinted on his body, it will never disappear.
It does not disappear, so you do not need the process of forming an array of runes, which means that eternal magic has the property of instant release, just a thought to activate the rune!
As with this magic barrier, it can be unleashed by a simple thought and just as removed, the concept of caste simply does not exist.
The only way to make the eternal rune disappear is to forcibly destroy magic.
Ron couldn't break down the magic barrier, but he feels it, the spell is inextricably linked to the rune in the palm of his hand.
If the magic barrier is completely destroyed by a powerful attack, then the golden rune in the palm of your hand must also be destroyed, so that again to use the spell will have to re-form the eternal rune.
"It seems to apply the same to the magic of space and time, they belong to the class of eternal runes, this magic can be released instantly."
Ron reflected on another eternal magic.
He looked again at the golden rune on his left palm.
It seems that the golden rune is applied to the skin, but in fact it is an imprint on the spiritual level. It is small and does not attract too much attention.
Ron opened the interface of the career in the system, it has a new rune, the edges of the rune slightly flash.
After Ron touched her, several messages surfaced in front of him.
[You've mastered the magic barrier]
[The magic barrier belongs to the eternal magic of protection. Eternal magic consists of four stages. The magic of the 2nd order consists of three runes, the magic of the 3rd order consists of nine runes, the magic of the 4th order consists of twenty-seven runes.]
[The magic of protection has one base rune and six derivatives, the derivative runes must be researched by the host themselves.]
Eternal magic is quite different from the basic.
Eternal magic has only four orders, and in terms of the level of strength of the magic of protection, the eternal magic of the 4th order most likely surpasses the basic magic of the 5th order.
As for the total number of runes, it decreased from nine to seven. There are only six derivative runes, but the complexity of studying them far exceeds the runes of basic magic.
The main rune of magic protection... it is ten times more complicated than the main rune of magic fire or wind.
The difficulty of studying the derivative runes of magic protection on a different level compared to basic magic is even more than ten times more difficult... ten times or even in hundreds!
Even if there are only six runes, given the difficulty of studying them, it will take much longer than studying the eight derivative runes of basic magic.
"It's not something I'm willing to explore at this stage."
Ron frowned a little and soon made a decision.
If it was a special rune, he could still try to explore, but with the eternal rune, even a superficial study is hardly possible now. Even if he does the research, it will take a huge amount of time.
In addition, at this stage of the magic barrier is enough, the ability to withstand the fierce blade of the wind, shows the power of its defensive force!
[Finally, you don't have to walk on the blade of a knife]
Ron thought with relief, a happy smile appeared on his face.
Although this magic barrier has its drawbacks, for example it protects only from one direction, but it is just the 1st order of magic protection. The magic barrier has already far exceeded Ron's expectations.
Before that, Ron would have been quite satisfied with even the magic of earth or ice.
"You need to get all the achievements available in the East Blue, after that you can safely go to the Grand Line."
With enough support, Ron was looking forward to getting on the Grand Line. After all, the Grand Line has the conditions for getting far more achievements than East Blue.
That's where it really goes up!
...
On some island.
Ron and Nami walked side by side through the bustling streets.
This is the tenth island Ron has visited. He got the achievement of "The Navigator I" having landed here, the condition was to visit ten different islands.
But Ron's goal on this island is not just an achievement. On this island you can access the shadow intelligence network, he has already learned how to contact it
Catching pirates, with a reward of more than ten million, is like finding a needle in a haystack. Just because it's hard to find, the headquarters can't do anything about the Ist Blue pirates, it's just to let the branches deal with it. Otherwise, it would be enough to send here an ordinary Rear Admiral from the headquarters, he could destroy any pirate East Blue.
After a while.
Ron entered the building with Nami, at first glance it is just a luxurious tavern, but the upper floors do not open for ordinary visitors.
"Grim..."
We followed Ron to the third floor, she frowned looking around.
Ron's environment has little impact. Most likely, it is assumed that the gloomy appearance will give the visitor some kind of oppression.
A man in a black suit guarding the entrance to the hall on the third floor blocked the path. Ron threw him a gold coin, a man in a black suit grabbed it and stepped aside.
"Too expensive. A thousand bellies are required to enter simply. It's just extortion."
Watching this scene could not but be outraged, although the money gave Ron, but in her opinion all the wealth of Ron belongs to her. It was unpleasant to watch someone other than her rip off Ron.
Ron shrugged: "At the end of the day, this organization is gathering information, and without sufficient funds, they will quickly collapse. The immediate purchase of information will be even more expensive."
The atmosphere in the hall is completely different.
There is an elegant bar, a few people in the corner playing poker, in different parts of the hall sit people. Some are waiting for someone, some just relax and have fun.
Ron headed straight for the bar.
The bartender behind the counter looked at Ron with surprise: "Dear Mr. Ron, what drink would you like?"
The bartender instantly recognized him. This did not surprise Ron, in the end they are collecting information. If they didn't even recognize him, there would be no need to come here for information.
"Ice water will work."
Ron replied, seemed unattached.
The bartender nodded and quickly placed the water with ice, then he signaled to Ron to enter the room next to the bar.
Ron immediately entered the room without drinking water. We went with him. Inside was an ordinary office, on the table was scattered a lot of papers.
"What an amazing guest.. Mr. "Mag" Ron!"
There was a middle-aged man in the office with glasses. When he saw Ron come in, he said hello with a smile: "Since you came here, you naturally know what we are doing. What kind of information is interested in Mr. Ron?"
"Pirates."
Ron sat down in front of the man and continued, "The information about every East Blue pirate with a reward of ten million, the more relevant the better."
The man smiled as if waiting for this: "Information about ordinary pirates is easy to obtain, but the rewards are more than ten million, it is much more difficult ... there are three messages, all received within three days."
The man found three documents on the table.
"A total of three hundred thousand bellies."
"How much?!"
We were shown a shocked look: "What?! Three hundred thousand bellies? It's just information. Ransomware!"
However, Ron did not care much, threw three hundred thousand and took the documents: "I hope this is not false information."
The man with the glasses calmly replied: "If this information turns out to be erroneous, we will issue ten fold compensation... there's something else."
Seeing Ron pick up the paperwork and leave, the man suddenly called him.
He stood up and said earnestly: "There is an organization that invites Mr. Ron to join. If Mr. Ron agrees, we can give them an answer on your behalf."
"I'm not interested."
Ron didn't even look back, he kept going to the exit.
The middle-aged man frowned slightly but again showed a smile: "For this organization, money is nothing more than just numbers. Their power is spread across all four seas and even on the Grand Line. Join them and you'll get whatever you want."
"..."
Ron just left the room without answering.
Seeing Ron just walk away, the man was stunned for a while and then shook his head: "Brave boy, it's just East Blue, you don't know this world yet."
...
Dress Rose.
In the royal palace.
"Refused to join? fu-fu-fu-fu... it's his choice."
Doflamingo stared out the window with a smirk.
For Doflamingo, East Blue's best talents didn't matter much. He is not surprised that a man alone can destroy an army of two thousand, any of the officers of his family is capable of it. He just heard the news about Ron and accidentally decided to send an invitation.
Since the other side was short-sighted in deciding to stay in the weak East Blue, Doflamingo was too lazy to pay attention to the issue.
With a strange cane in his hand, elite officer Trebol stood next to Doflamingo: "Doffy is the news... Big Mommy wants to buy us a batch of the newest weapons, what to do?"
"Big Mommy?"
Doflamingo showed a hint of seriousness, compared to the pirate hunter of the East Blue, Big Mommy is the lord of the sea, one of the four Emperors ruling the New World.
Deal with Big Mom, Doflamingo began to seriously consider this issue and soon forgot about Ron.
