The long hours of meditation experiments, lasting over a dozen hours, made him feel nauseous.
For a long time afterward, various patterns and chaotic, twisted lines like a nightmare constantly interfered with his mind.
Fortunately, he finally got satisfactory experimental results.
Rune Energy could indeed be universal. Although most of the patterns on the Glass Candle didn't think much of the Rune Energy he had only accumulated for four days, he finally succeeded in buying a new Rune.
What was the use of the new Rune?
He wanted to know the answer immediately, but he had just used up his Rune Energy, and the special Magic Energy of the new Rune hadn't been replenished. He had no choice but to wait patiently for the new Rune to grow.
There was an unexpected surprise during the two days of waiting – the speed at which the new Rune and the Recovery Rune gained Rune Energy did not slow down.
In other words, if the daily increase in Rune Energy for a single Rune was recorded as one unit, then before he could get one unit of Rune Energy per day, now he could get two units per day, exactly double.
He just didn't know if there was an upper limit to this growth rate.
With a heart full of joy and worry, today, after consuming the silver Magic Energy the new Rune had accumulated for two days and about three units of Rune Energy, he finally successfully activated the new Rune.
"Hannah, how do you feel?"
Joffrey asked the stunned girl with concern.
Hannah blinked quickly, still unable to hide the shocked and excited expression on her face.
She never thought that her life would soar into the blue sky like a soaring eagle in just a few days, as if blessed by The Gods.
First, she was chosen by the Crown Prince to be by his side, then she gained his favor, and now...
Hannah closed her eyes again uneasily, and once again clearly felt it. What a great, mysterious existence.
"Hannah," Joffrey's right hand waved in front of her eyes, "Are you alright?"
Hannah finally came back to her senses, "Your Highness, I'm fine, I just never felt this way before, it's truly amazing."
She looked at the Crown Prince nervously.
"Your Highness, Hannah is just a maid, such a precious thing..."
Joffrey stroked the girl's head and showed a reassuring smile, "Among so many people here, you are the one I trust and am closest to the most. Don't think of yourself as useless."
"Just one more thing to do."
"Don't be afraid," Joffrey held the girl's smooth little hand, "Just a light cut, a very, very shallow one is enough."
Using the new Rune, he successfully transplanted the Recovery Rune into Hannah's soul.
What was the effect?
A sharp dagger flashed, and a bright red mark blossomed on the girl's palm.
Hannah bit her lip tightly and didn't cry out.
After a few breaths, the wound on her palm swallowed the blood that had just seeped out, and then disappeared.
Joffrey didn't feel any burden or consumption. He immediately activated some indescribable command in his consciousness.
Hannah's eyes immediately widened, and her cherry lips trembled slightly.
It was gone!
Joffrey pinched the girl's cheek, "I'll make it up to you in two days."
The result was perfect.
With the help of the new Rune, he could give others the Runes he already had, and have a special connection to them, and he could even control or destroy the given Runes.
He thought of a name – Mirror Image.
Mirror Image Rune.
Copying a Mirror Image of a Rune and giving it to others, while still having the highest control. Like the main body and the Mirror Image, one is a physical entity, and the other is just light and shadow that exists dependent on the physical entity.
The first Rune obtained from the Glass Candle was actually this.
He felt the favor of destiny.
Joffrey had tried before, the Recovery Rune itself could not be transferred to a human body or other living creatures.
It can be inferred that most Runes should not be shareable with others, and can only be used to cast magic or make magic items.
This could certainly guarantee his monopoly, but it was quite unfavorable for the future development of magic.
The function of the Glass Candle pointed him in the direction of progress. Create his own Weave from scratch, build the most real "My World", and become the God of Magic!
But one person's energy is limited after all.
Knowledge needs to be spread to maximize its power, and social change needs a new class of beneficiaries to be successfully promoted.
Now with the Mirror Image Rune, magic seems to have spread, but not completely spread. It's perfect.
Joffrey thought of the Night King in the TV series. When the Night King died, all the Others under his command were instantly annihilated, which had the same effect as his Mirror Image Rune ability.
Wonderful, wonderful.
The dawn of the Weave has already appeared.
Mirror Images of various Runes can be the core products of Weave communication. The Mirror Image Rune is equivalent to a server, the cost of system operation is borne by the users themselves, and the risk of being banned by the Weave or the real world is enough to restrain users.
The framework is complete.
Let's call it the "Magic Network 0.1 Beta System."
Abbreviated as MN 0.1 Beta.
Thinking of these terms that didn't belong in this world, he suddenly recalled the fear of being dominated by countless software agreements in his previous life.
Being selfless, he immediately decided to share this joy with the world.
"Hannah, paper!"
The parchment was spread flat on the table. He picked up his pen and wrote a striking title at the top—"Magic Network System User Notice and Related Agreement."
Article 1: Users shall not disclose the privacy information of the Magic Network or related personnel in any way.
Article 2: Users shall not damage the interests of the Magic Network or related personnel protected by this agreement in any way.
Article 3: Users shall bear all costs of using the Magic Network themselves.
Article 4: After signing this agreement, users have the responsibility and obligation to actively maintain the various interests of the Magic Network.
Article 5: For the sustainable development of the Magic Network, which represents the collective interests of all users, users have the responsibility and obligation to actively cooperate with the Magic Network in collecting personal information and providing assistance such as manpower and material resources.
Article 6: In exchange for enjoying the services and conveniences of the Magic Network, users must actively complete various tasks assigned by the Magic Network, whether paid or unpaid.
Article 7: For users who violate the agreement, the Magic Network has the right to take various necessary measures such as warnings, penalties, detention, punitive tasks, temporary bans, and permanent bans.
Related personnel include, but are not limited to, Magic Network users, Magic Network service personnel, the Lord of the Weave, and designated personnel.
Interests protected by this agreement include, but are not limited to, life and health, property, personal freedom, privacy, mental health, portrait rights, and public opinion influence.
Note: The final interpretation rights of the above terms belong to the Lord of the Weave.
After finishing writing everything, Joffrey dusted off the parchment and carefully admired it. Each Chinese character exuded deep affection.
As long as the meaning was conveyed, it could be refined and polished later.
He was very satisfied, but also felt some regret.
This method was out of place in this era.
Given the current environment, directly asking people to swear allegiance was不仅 simpler but also more effective.
However, considering the world he envisioned, the millions of Magic Network users couldn't be controlled by simple oaths of allegiance; only a complete and strict system of rules would work.
Putting away this agreement that might not see the light of day for a long time, Joffrey completely relaxed.
The research had reached a temporary conclusion.
For several days, his mind had been immersed in research, unable to extricate itself.
Now, the Rune Magic system was finally on the right track.
Collecting runes, developing the effects of existing runes, and accumulating Rune Energy—this virtuous cycle was enough to support his progress.
The future was bright.
He no longer resisted the mental fatigue, collapsing onto the bed and quickly falling into a dream
