Mind Frenzy and the Challenge of Runes of Truth

Chapter 1269

In the distance, Lafayette had just completed a breakthrough in deciphering a Rune of Truth. His gaze shifted, landing squarely on Leon, who was casting both Mental Agility and Spiritual Berserk on himself...

Immediately, a mocking, cold smile crept onto Lafayette's lips.

What a fool. That idiot probably doesn't even realize it yet. The endless runes on this crystal can only be researched with true skill, and he's actually cast Spiritual Berserk on himself? Utter stupidity.

Spiritual Berserk has serious side effects in alchemy. An alchemist who can't stay calm still wants to conduct research? Does that idiot really think faster calculations and research are always better?

A country bumpkin, through and through. These runes contain the infinite mysteries of alchemy. Efficiency and accuracy—that's what truly matters. No, accuracy is what truly matters.

Every single mystery within these runes—if you get even a tiny detail wrong, the result can be completely off. What once was truth can turn into absolute error...

What a fool. He hasn't moved at all over there. At first he was jotting down some key data, but now he hasn't budged in hours. Definitely hit a bottleneck...

With a sneer, Lafayette shot Leon a look full of malice before returning to his own research. He was almost done studying a Rune of Truth, and at this pace, he might fully unravel its secrets on the very first day.

That’s already a decent achievement. Even though researching the Runes of Truth on the Whisper Crystal will only get harder and take longer, by the end of six months, he’ll surely have mastered dozens of them.
