Chapter 877

Standing in front of Rosetta Augustus are the president of the Royal Society of Mages, the legendary mage Windsor Maple, and the sorcerer Daniel, who has now become the president of the Imperial Workers Association.

They are the most outstanding scholars and technical talents of the empire, the most trusted advisors of the royal family in the transcendent and industrial fields, and the right-hand man of Rosetta Augustus himself.

Not many people in the empire know about the news that the Courage departed from Mobius Port. That ship is the crystallization of Typhon’s most advanced technology, and its related information is naturally kept secret, but there are people who can stand in this room. Obviously not subject to confidentiality regulations. After hearing Rosetta's words, Windsor was the first to smile: "This is really good news."

Daniel asked curiously, "Is Spirit still on Thassos Island?"

"Still on Thassos, but will be returning today," Rosetta said calmly, knowing what Daniel was wondering, "The news was sent back by magical messenger - Port Mobius owns the east coast The most powerful communication tower, and on that ship... is installed a small communication circle that Ms. Windsor Maple has personally improved."

Daniel froze for a moment, then looked at Windsor Maple indifferently, and nodded with the usual indifference: "Not bad results."

"Thank you for your compliment," Windsor said immediately. "It's just some modification of traditional magic, not a breakthrough creation."

"But it was also a fruitful transformation," said Rosetta Augustus. "It turns out that the communication technology of the Eternal Sleepers is extremely useful, and the time between Thassos and Port Mobius is not short. The distance of the old communication tower can't complete the communication so far. It's just that the improved communication circle is not very stable at present. It has been several days since the Spirit successfully arrived at Thassos Island, but the communication has been affected by the magical environment of the ocean. Interference, the information was successfully sent back until today."

"This is the problem we need to solve in the next stage," said Windsor Maple immediately. "It didn't take long for us to get the technology of the Eternal Sleeper, and the improvement of the messenger spell was just beginning, and many times it was even just a simple and rude process of using their The ideas are only used in our own communication technology, and there is still a lot of room for optimization. In the future, our communication technology will definitely be improved even more in terms of performance and cost.”

Rosetta Augustus glanced at the legendary mage and smiled: "I have always believed in your abilities, ma'am."

...

The corridor from Obsidian Palace to the Royal Library is long, hundreds of steps, and it's always quiet.

Only a few people are qualified to walk here.

Daniel and Windsor Maple walked down this long corridor,

There were only occasional royal guards standing guard on both sides, and the footsteps of the two mages were very light, which made this empty corridor even more deserted and silent.

The first to break the silence was Windsor Mapel, she turned her head slightly and looked at the former mentor walking beside her: "Teacher, I still remember the first time you took me down this corridor. ——I had just broken through to the high-level at that time, you said that it is a great honor for a mage to be able to go to the Royal Library from this corridor..."

Daniel's expression didn't change, he just responded indifferently: "In a few years after that, you will be eligible to travel unimpeded in this area as a legendary mage."

Windsor Maple said subconsciously: "Teacher, I..."

"No, I didn't blame you," Daniel's footsteps stopped slightly, he glanced at the former apprentice beside him, his eyes were only calm, "I'm just saying, your talent is really good, this talent belongs to you , we should all accept this fact.”

Windsor looked at the teacher's calm gaze, and suddenly felt a little calmer in her heart.

She hadn't seen her teacher look so calm for many years.

What has a mentor looked like over the years? Conflict, boredom, frustration, anger, hysteria... Since he failed many years ago when he tried to break through the bottleneck of talent with some terrifying methods, this once gentle and wise old man seems to have changed a person, more and more distant from himself. In the end, he even took the initiative to leave the Royal Mages Association and chose to live in seclusion in an inaccessible place. After many years, the old man returned to the imperial capital, and his attitude towards himself was still cold and full of distance - the kind of years old The estrangement showed no sign of melting, and even Windsor Maple felt that the rift would never disappear.

The once close mentor and apprentice have become strangers.

However, His Majesty the Emperor's series of plans has forced this pair of master and apprentice who are strangers to come together again - whether they want it or not, as the two most outstanding talents in this country, they are bound to meet frequently here. , working together, communicating, arguing, and helping each other as a result of technical and intellectual contacts.

"Actually, I am very fortunate to have such an opportunity," said Windsor Maple with a smile, "Your Majesty's mission has put us all back on track. I think you have proved that you have What you want to prove—human talent is by no means only extraordinary power, and your talent in the field of magic technology is also 'legendary'."

In Windsor Maple's view, Daniel's calmness now must be inseparable from the development of magic technology - this persistent old man has proved himself in a new field, and this "proof" is enough to unlock his The heart knot, and as long as the heart knot is untied, the kind teacher will gradually return.

Daniel just gave Windsor a quiet glance.

A powerful legendary mage with outstanding talent and detached status, but this does not mean that she has any ability to understand people's hearts.

fair enough.

"You don't have to compliment me, you know I don't like compliments," Daniel shook his head and said lightly, "In fact, people who are talented in the field of magic are usually not bad in the field of magic technology-mathematical and Magic is inherently connected in many places. Your improvement in communication spells has proved your ability in this area. It is not something that ordinary people can do to understand the technology of the Eternal Sleeper in a short period of time."

"Thank you for your compliment," Windsor smiled, but then frowned and said earnestly, "But I also encountered a lot of difficulties... The rune system of the Eternal Sleeper was born out of divine magic, but communication spells and There is a problem of energy conflict between divine spells, and now I try to drive two sets of runes with pure arcane magic, which results in very low stability of the whole system, and it is prone to backflow and meltdown...I think Sisi The Er people must have solved this obstacle before they can boldly apply the Eternal Sleeper's runes to those 'magic web terminals', and I am currently looking for this key conversion structure from the samples of the magic web terminals..."

She seriously and meticulously talked about the problems she encountered when facing new knowledge, just like when she was an apprentice and discussed problems with her mentor many years ago, but soon she found that Daniel did not respond to her, and the old man was just quiet Standing quietly by the side, looking at this side with strangely calm eyes, she couldn't help but be confused: "Teacher?"

"I'm listening, but I don't have any good advice either," Daniel shook his head slowly, his eyes still on Windsor Maple, after which he was silent for two seconds before sighing softly, "You do very talented..."

"I'm glad you'd like to hear me talk to you about these questions—I know they're boring, and they're not your job," Windsor smiled, then took a half step back, "I'm going first—my and Prince Hadilon has an appointment to meet in more than half an hour."

Daniel simply nodded: "Well, you go."

Windsor Maple left, leaving Daniel alone in the long, empty corridor.

He looked at the direction where the former apprentice left, and sighed softly in a voice that no one could detect.

"Windsor... your talent is really good..."

Two seconds later, the old mage shook his head and continued to walk forward slowly and steadily.

He was not jealous, and he had never hated any of his apprentices.

It was just at this moment that Windsor Maple's ability made him feel a little "dangerous".

In the end, however, he decided to do nothing.

This is not because of Windsor Maple's status as a legendary mage. In fact, he knows that Windsor Maple is completely defenseless against him, and with the advantage of the secret, he can also completely avoid any frontal contact. Sabotage the research projects of the Royal Society of Mages, or at least greatly hinder or delay their progress.

It's just that there are many talented people in this world, and in the mighty Typhon, there is more than one person like "Windsor Maple". There were many in the past, and there will be many in the future.

The master said that he did not mind the development of Typhon, and that he would even be happy to see other mortal kingdoms prosper - because he would guarantee that Cecil would always be the most powerful of all kingdoms.

Under this premise, the master does not advocate that he obstruct most of Typhon's technological progress - because every technological progress, whether it is Typhon's or Cecil's, is the common wealth of mortals.

He used to not understand the master's great idea, and just mechanically executed orders in this regard, but after personally participating in the construction of the magic industry and seeing the respective changes of Typhon and Cecil, he felt that he could also vaguely Jodi understands the master's idea of ​​"community of mortals".

He let out a long breath and smiled.

Windsor Maple's talent is her own, and as her mentor...she should be happy.

...

Matilda Augustus sat on a small sofa by the window, and the sun slanted through the window, illuminating the crystal ornaments and "Cecil Cubes" on the table.

She flipped the pages of the book in her hand, and stroked the hair that fell down from her ear. At this time, there were footsteps coming from not far away, and she lifted her eyes from the book and looked in the direction of the door.

The young Prince Hadillon was entering the room.

"Hadiron," Matilda nodded, "Aren't you going to meet Ms. Windsor Maple at this time?"

"Half an hour later, sister," Hadillon said casually, "what are you looking at?"

"The gift that was just sent by international mail this morning," Matilda raised the seemingly heavy-weight book in her hand, and pointed to the table not far away - the neat tome was on the way. Lying in an exquisite wooden box, this is obviously a large-scale series of books, "The Foundation of Everything, this incredible masterpiece has finally been completed, Emperor Cecil sent me a signed set as promised, and I am currently Looking at its sociology volume, it's very enlightening."

"The Cecil's 'Encyclopedia of Natural History'?" the young Prince Hadilon muttered casually, sitting down opposite Matilda and reaching out to the bookcase, "Speaking of Cecil... …do you feel like there’s more and more stuff coming from Cecil lately? Their magazines, their newspapers, and their toys…I saw merchant kids playing rune cubes when I was in town , they were jubilantly shouting 'Cecil Cube' and it seemed like having a 'Cecil Cube' was something to be proud of among the kids."

"It's proof that their parents have enough financial strength and that they themselves have enough intelligence to figure out how the cubes work," Matilda glanced at Hadillon, "read carefully—the one in your hand I haven't opened it yet."

Hadilon immediately put the "Agronomy Scroll" back in the bookcase: "Then I won't read it at all."

Matilda's attention was already attracted by her younger brother, she looked into Hadillon's eyes and asked casually, "Speaking of gifts... You have already given the gift I brought to you from Cecil. It has been more than a month since I received it, and no evaluation has been made yet.”

"Ah - my God," Hadillon's cousin suddenly became eccentric, and he gave Matilda a scowling look, "I sometimes wonder if you're playing tricks on me on purpose... you can't give Some real, normal gifts of mine..."

"I think books are the most normal gift, especially books that are rich in knowledge and inspiration," Matilda said immediately, "Hadilan, you have always been lax in learning - that's why you have A legendary mage like Lady Windsor Maple taught herself, and still..."

"Stop, stop, I already broke through the advanced level last month, so your preaching in this area is useless," Hadilon immediately raised his hand and shook his head again, "And I admit that the book is indeed It's a nice gift—but don't you think twelve books on mathematics and mechanics plus one hundred and eighty-seven sets of papers are a bit too much?"

Matilda looked at her brother quietly, and after two seconds, she nodded solemnly and said, "That's Cecil's specialty."

"...This is really bad," Hadilon opened his hands helplessly, "that's why I said that there are too many 'Cecils' here..."
