The Complete Mysterious of Totems By Alexander Copperfield, this is the book that I found in that data storage relic.
I haven't had time to read this book ever since I roughly overviewed in the forest, this will be my first time seriously reading it.
I started to read it and soon became engrossed in it, as its content is really interesting and the things written here is a treasure trove of knowledge for me.
Books first give an introduction about the Totems, The first totem is constructed at Lieutenant Grade, right after one Level up to Lieutenant Grade from Master Grade.
Constructing Totem is not a simple thing as it has various conditions attached to.
First, there is only one chance in constructing Totem, right after one level up to Lieutenant Grade, if one missed it, then his chance is gone and only will get his next chance when one level-up to Marshal Grade.
The second condition is one's mana purity have to over seventy percent, without enough mana purity there is no chance of constructing Totem.
Totems are divided into three grades, low grade, medium grade, and high grade.
Low-grade totems are those who made when mana purity is below eighty percent, Medium grade totems are made when mana purity is below ninety percent and High-grade totems are made when mana purity is below a hundred percent.
When humans first started to make totems, they used to inspiration from the monster and used to construct their totems in beast form and there is another reason to it as well, as it required very few materials to construct.
But as time passed, the techniques also advanced and people started to construct more lethal and more efficient Totems.
In today age, most of the people construct their totems in weapon forms as they more lethal and easy to use and most importantly magical artifacts can't compare to the totemic weapons.
Currently, I am using Grade 1 magical artifact which is my sword but if I were to use Grade 2 artifact, it won't activate in my hand, even specialist grade won't able to activate grade 2 magical artifacts, only Corporal grade and above evolvers can do that.
The totemic weapons are completely different, they give major enhancement to their user that magical artifact cant do and Totems take half the energy to operate than the magical artifact.
The thing that startles me most in the book is that it says a man can construct seven totems in total, although to create seven totems one had to become very powerful evolver.
Seven totems, I used to think that man can only construct two totems, one at lieutenant Grade and other at Marshal stage but I didn't think there would be more totems and higher grades of the revolver.
The introduction is an easy part of the books, the next comes the runes, the runes which help in the construction of the Totem.
There thousands and thousands of runes and every run with different meaning and the most tiring thing are it takes lot mental energy to read the runes.
I thought these runes were like normal world easy to read and write but I was wrong, as I kept reading, I kept feeling tired, its like they are leeching off my mental energy.
Something came into my mind and I removed the relic storage from my drawer and compared to the relic storage on the web, I clearly saw a distinction between them.
The relic storage discs on market are black and copper just like mine but when I looked relic storage that I found, that copper color looked more of gold and extremely tiny runes carved on it which could not be seen by naked eye.
I only saw when I took a photo of it and magnify that photo, this relic storage is really special. it must be used to store some special type of data.
I kept studying the book whole day but I felt like I haven't scratched a surface, to read this book one must have a lot of mental energy, I barely able to keep up till evening.
After feeling I've read enough, I close the window and laid on the bed and shut my eyes for a while, I feeling really drained reading that book but I found it very interesting.
if I hadn't been feeling really tired, I would have read it till night, I have decided to study that book one hour a day if I could ever reach the lieutenant Grade.
"Chew chew.." I was just going to shut-eye for the few minutes but I slept for an hour, I only woke up because of Ashlyn's chirp.
"Good girl," I said as I patted her head as I woke, its good thing Ashlyn woke me up or I wouldn't have had good sleep in the rest of the night.
I order a meal for us, it's still an hour early for us to eat but seeing Ashlyn feeling hungry, I decided to order the food.
It didn't take long to food to arrive, in ten minutes the drone-delivered our food.
"Chew Chew.," Ashly called out as I putting boxes on the table, I smile seeing that, this glutton always will be glutton.
I opened the box for her to eat and also open mine to eat, this monster food is really delicious, no matter how many times you eat, it will always be delicious.
As I am eating, I am also browsing the web, in the yesterday fight, I have to face some harsh reality, in this world power is not enough it also need good equipment to augment it.
if I had armor type magical artifact yesterday not many of my bones were broken or I had shoes type magical artifacts lots of my injuries would have been avoidable.
The thing is there are a lot of magical artifacts and potions, so I didn't get succumbed to the fatal injuries or worst death when I was adventuring outside.
Its good thing is I've earned some money while adventuring so I could afford to buy Armor type magical artifact.
The normal grade 1 magical artifacts start from fifty thousand credits and that's only for the lowest grade 1 artifact.
the Lowest Armor grade magical artifacts starts from a hundred thousand and I am currently browsing through them.
