Chapter 923: Chapter 923: The New Magic Rune Army

A few days later, the weather gradually became cooler, another year transitioned into autumn.

This year was truly eventful, and my strength increased rapidly. However, Zhao Guang was not focused on these matters at present, instead, his research had finally made a new breakthrough.

The research still pertained to magic patterns. In the previous research, he advanced from magic pattern indifference to Magic Rune Mage, capable of independently producing magical units. Now, the number of mages he had exceeded over a thousand.

Such a massive force, even within the Empire, is far from ordinary.

Moreover, now that this force was in a territory, the Xuanwu Territory naturally drew attention from various quarters.

After all, these Magic Rune Mages are not ordinary magicians; once developed, they naturally achieve Advanced Magician levels. And with Zhao Guang’s research, the next tier is already becoming clear.

Of course, even more importantly, Zhao Guang himself can manufacture Magic Rune Mages on a large scale.

As long as Zhao Guang wills it, the number of mages under his command will increase continuously, a force that everyone finds incredibly formidable.

In the entire nation, only Duke Horace’s side wouldn’t be concerned. On one hand, the distance is quite far, and on another, their relationship differs from Zhao Guang’s relationship with other nobles.

Due to Zhao Guang’s relentless development, Duke Horace has gradually become quite influential in the Empire.

Yet this time, Zhao Guang’s new method once again left everyone astounded.

Because the army created this time was not ordinary troops, but Holy Knights. Indeed, originally, only the Temple possessed Holy Knight Corps. Speaking of which, Zhao Guang’s original Holy Flame Army already made them envious.

Although this Holy Flame Army wasn’t Holy Knights, it was already very similar, inherently possessing healing abilities through the Light Attribute.

Though a powerful future force is to be expected, ultimately it couldn’t compare to the Holy Knight Corps.

The main reason being insufficient methodologies; true Holy Knight methods are exceedingly numerous.

This time, Zhao Guang crafted a genuine Holy Knight Corps. Although it’s merely a Magic Rune Army, who can say how this compares to an actual Holy Knight Corps with Zhao Guang’s methods?

In some cases, Magic Rune Warriors can be more exaggeratedly effective than the original.

Zhao Guang did not hide this, he simply let everyone witness it right here.

Since Magic Rune Warriors have already been produced multiple times, even though it’s new this time, it’s very easy. Before long, the first Magic Rune Holy Knight was born in Zhao Guang’s hands.

"Is this the Magic Rune Holy Knight? It seems not much different."

"Shut up, what do you understand? This is crafted by Duke Xuanwu himself; how could anything made by Duke Xuanwu be inferior."

"Do you know how strong their performance is?"

"How would I know, but aren’t they about to demonstrate anyways, can’t you wait."

The prior speaker fell silent, as this was indeed true. Or rather, the individuals before them had already begun their display. The Light Element gathered around, swirling, condensing into various shapes.

"What Lifebound Battle Skill did you set for them?" Aleya curiously inquired from the side.

With Zhao Guang’s army, Aleya’s strength had been improving rapidly. At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before Aleya could genuinely break through to becoming a High Priest.

A new army emerged today, Aleya was among the first to arrive.

Zhao Guang did not hold back, and straightforwardly said, "Light Element Control, the first Lifebound Battle Skill is to control the Light Element, allowing them to more easily manipulate Light Attribute power."

"What’s the use of that?" some others questioned curiously.

"The Holy Knight’s greatest strength isn’t in sheer power, but in its myriad techniques. Sometimes, they are even handier than mages on the battlefield."

"I have researched several Light Attribute spells, simple yet effectively potent. Master the Light Element, and learning these skills becomes easy; this is the true Magic Rune Holy Knight."

"Isn’t it just like those Magic Rune Mages then."

"More or less, but the techniques vary. The second Magic Rune ability is self-enhancement."

It’s unavoidable; the primary expression of Holy Knight’s strength isn’t magic but in the self. Magic is merely auxiliary; without adequate self-strength, one is merely a mediocre priest.

"Here, take these things and study them, they shouldn’t be too hard."

With the augmentation from Lifebound Battle Skill, mastering the Light Element and learning magic is not particularly difficult.

After all, these things were thoroughly simplified by Zhao Guang himself.

These spells essentially represent the essence of his Holy Knight Corps. These items cannot be casually exposed, knowing that once revealed, would significantly benefit the Temple’s members.

Because these were refined from their spells, they are far simpler than the original versions.

Once these spells are learned by them, their Holy Knight Corps will see substantial strength enhancement, methodology increase. It’s possible the training of new Holy Knights may become easier than it is now.

Nonetheless, even if the Temple learns of them, Zhao Guang remains unbothered.

Things are different now compared to before; Zhao Guang himself is a Light Attribute Legendary Warrior, meaning even if the Temple wishes to confront him, it won’t be so easy. Although there might be Legendary Level elites in the Temple, they aren’t prevalent, and engaging them isn’t straightforward.

"Master, I’ve learned it." After successfully crafting some Holy Knights, the first spell was ultimately learned by someone.

"Try it." Zhao Guang nodded, then someone dragged over an injured five-striped pig. fr eewe(b)nove.l.co\m

Everyone fixated on this person, knowing that successful mastery meant potentially a successful first Holy Knight outside the Temple. Depending on Xuanwu Territory’s approach, they might also get training slots.

If the enemy is Holy Knights, it could be troublesome, but if it’s their own people, it’s entirely different.

Under the watchful eyes of many, that person raised a hand and unleashed a radiant light.

This was not Holy Light, and did not borrow divine power, but was purely white in color. Within this world, Holy light is tinged with golden light, unlike Gold Giant Dragon’s combat energy coloration, distinguishable at a glance.

And this pure white was not Holy Light, merely the congregation of Light Element.

No matter what it is, everyone’s attention now solely rested on the efficacy of these skills.
