Chapter 1351: Foundation
"Teacher, is there really no problem with us here?" A young girl spellcaster holding a staff looked nervously at the icy environment around her. Snow is the thing that can be seen the most in this place. Continental Because the flow and distribution of elemental power is not completely uniform, the phenomena of the four seasons can be completely displayed on the mainland, but the only place that can have such a snow scene is the snow mountain.
Undoubtedly, this place is the edge of the snow-capped mountain, and the source of tension for this young girl caster. There are many records of the master of the snow-capped mountain, but what kind of character she has, her temper is only a written record. No one knows what it is, the only data that is constantly refreshed is the number of deaths of snow mountain adventurers.
Of course, the death of these people was not the result of the active action of the Snow Mountain Lord, but was accidentally killed by the snow mountain environment during the adventure. If other adventurers are lucky, they can still pick up the snow mountain adventurer’s body, Guaranteed to be lifelike.
Although the Lord of Snow Mountain does not have any sense of presence in daily life, no one will underestimate the Lord of Snow Mountain. Now they are going to conduct research on magic technology next to the Lord of Snow Mountain. Will the Lord of Snow Mountain suddenly come to visit? No one is clear about this, but the pursuit and discovery of new powers still attract many spellcasters to this research and development base.
A new breed of spellcasters.
Because when this place was established, they received related information. The magic technology researched here is not dedicated to the circle of spellcasters, but also includes the circle of ordinary people. The part covered is not a small number of people, but... …all sentient beings!
If you can't accept this, then you don't need to come to this place. Some spellcasters can accept it, while others maintain a neutral state of waiting and watching, and others are naturally dissatisfied. Not all spellcasters They are all generous, and in the eyes of those people, things like magic power are the privileged power used by their geniuses.
What is it that ordinary people can use at will?
Forget about magical vehicles or other things, if the comprehensive development does not use the magic technology with the lower limit conditions, is there still a need for spellcasters in the future? Of course, there is a threat theory about whether there is a need for existence, but it doesn't affect their thinking. If there are too many people, there will be all kinds of people, including existences like spellcasters.
There are people who can't think about it, and there are many people who think about it. Those who are willing to come here are very open-minded besides wanting to learn new knowledge. Even if magic technology can cover all intelligent creatures, it can even directly reduce The lower limit requirement for using magic power, but this only reduces the lower limit requirement, not raises the upper limit.
The power that ordinary people can use magic is still ordinary people, and the caster is still the caster. If this is the case, why should you care so much about lowering the lower limit? Those who come here are all aiming at raising the upper limit. Now that they are all casters, who is still staring at the lower limit? Going after the more important ceiling is what matters.
Since magic technology can make magic power manifest in another way, they are willing to come here, and those who are unwilling to follow the progress of the times, let them continue to maintain the original state. This is the trend, and the Labest Empire has vigorously promoted magic power. With the introduction of technology, even if an empire cannot affect the caster system of the entire continent in a short period of time, it is easy to leave a firm foundation if it is done for a while.
As long as they have a firm foundation, then their magic technology department will definitely have more development prospects in the future.
"Your Excellency has a good relationship with the Lord of the Snow Mountain, so there shouldn't be any major problems." The spellcaster who brought his apprentice here said that as long as a powerful spellcaster has a workshop, there are basically apprentices, students, and apprentices. This kind of existence exists, but just look at the first two. Apprentices also need to serve spell casters when they study. Students need to pay extra tuition fees when they study, which is very expensive.
It is very difficult for the two to obtain the true biography of the caster. Only the real apprentice is the designated heir of the caster. Generally speaking, the number of apprentices of a caster is not too many, and in more cases it They come to teach one by one. Apprentices are not as easy to dismiss as apprentices and students. If you accept an apprentice, you will be in charge of more things. Let alone basic necessities of life, at least you must keep up with the corresponding resources for learning magic.
Therefore, the caster will not accept too many apprentices.
Therefore, even if the spellcasters who come here bring apprentices, the number is not very large, apprentices? Apprentices don’t need to be brought here. Students, students, wait until the academy starts. Isn’t there a network of magic soldiers now? Many of them only give lectures every few days.
"But these are just rumors."
"But it's true that your Excellency came here." The caster interrupted his apprentice's words. It's a good thing to question, but it's not so good to miss many opportunities because of the habit of questioning. This place is a special one. If the opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to come here in the future.
This is the case with many special organizations, such as the restricted area research association. At first, it was a group of like-minded people gathered together. At that time, the difficulty of entering the circle was very low. As long as you have the ability, you can enter the core after obtaining everyone's consent. In the circle, they became the basic personnel for the initial development, but later the restricted area research society matured. Although the original intention did not change, they could join that circle, but the later circle was the outer circle after all.
It's not that you can't get in touch with the inner circle, but you need to pay an extra price. It's far less easy than it was at the beginning. This is the difference between grasping the opportunity and not grasping the opportunity. The same is true for this research and development base. After being well established, it is at a time when there is a shortage of people, so even if the conditions of the people who come here are a little worse, the conditions can be relaxed to join.
After everything is stabilized and perfected, people with the same conditions...they have better choices, why do they need the same conditions?
Come sooner rather than later.
Moreover, the fact that this place can be built near the snow-capped mountains is a kind of confidence in itself. Magical technology makes some spellcasters feel that they are messing around, but for those in power and other spellcasters who do not support it, this is an obstacle. At this time, the Bust Empire strongly supports magic technology... probably because of the stimulating effect of the war.
The research and development base is established in other places, don't want to be safe, anything can happen in the war years, on the contrary, here in the snow mountain, even if some people have ideas, they should carefully consider the geographical location, and fight in this place If so, will it offend the Lord of the Snow Mountain?
It has been hundreds of years since there has been a large-scale conflict on the snow mountain side, and there are even few normal conflicts. On the other side of the volcano, the daily fighting is quite fierce.
In addition to being able to get in touch with new knowledge, this place is also a rare safe zone. Do you really think that many spellcasters like Zhanluan when they are free? Or do you really like to fight when you have mastered the existence of power? Warriors sharpen their growth through battles, and mages not only sharpen their combat experience through battles, but also learn magic, research magic, deepen their understanding of magic and strengthen themselves.
Combat is not absolutely important. The combat experience needs to be tossed a few times in the illusory world. It doesn’t matter if you think it’s a bit fake and the sense of substitution is not enough. It’s enough to increase the degree of realism to ensure that you don’t want to die after you die in it once. The second time, I felt that it was not exciting enough, so I went to Yanan Village in the virtual world...the battle there was very exciting.
There are a lot of nerds among the casters, so wars are the most annoying thing, and if you want to order some materials to collect some materials on weekdays, you have to increase the price!
"En~ That's good." Zheng Yichen looked at the direction of the snow mountain and nodded slightly. The location of the research and development base is next to the snow mountain. , even if it didn't touch her territory, it is necessary to say something, the habit of the witch has also affected Zheng Yichen, some things should be made clear on the spot, even if it seems insignificant, the Lord of the Snow Mountain may not care about it, but he should say Still talk about it.
It’s just how difficult it is to run to the snowy mountain. After Zheng Yichen ran in, he would be covered by the vast snow. He could sink into it by taking a step and a half. The snow couldn’t be melted by magic. It's not comfortable to walk around.
So Zheng Yichen chatted with the Lord of Snow Mountain for a while in the fantasy world, and then gave him a small gift of friendship as a neighbor, a mini-assistant version of an alchemy elf, and the materials used were also obtained from Snow Mountain, although it is not ice soul That kind of rare treasure in the eyes of others, the 'treasure' of the chair cushion of the Lord of the Snow Mountain, but the compatibility of the materials is enough, and it is not easy to add other materials with the ice cap.
After adding it, there is no reaction, and it has been frozen by the extreme cold characteristics of the ice cape. The next best thing is that this thing is mainly for the owner of the snow mountain to play. It is also a random collection when it is not in use, because Zheng Yichen has discovered it long ago. , the Lord of the Snow Mountain actually likes to go out, right?
Otherwise, I would not have encountered the Lord of the Snow Mountain who used the alchemy puppet in Kajia. The alchemy puppet was very miserable when it was used by the Lord of the Snow Mountain. The quality was not bad, but it was destroyed by the Lord of the Snow Mountain. There may be none, and the local environment has almost undergone permanent changes.
Zheng Yichen doesn't know whether the new version of the small gift can solve this problem, but it will definitely not be easily destroyed because of the use of the Lord of the Snow Mountain. It is enough to come out with something that can be used as a collectible.
The meaning has been expressed, and the mini figure has also been accepted, so naturally there is nothing to do here. Of course, the statement about the existence of this research and development base is not based on the meaning of the real Rabster Empire, but Zheng Yichen This means that when the research and development base is his, then everything will be fine, and it should be what it should be when it is not him.
The Lord of the Snow Mountain will not do more because of a research and development base, but the Lord of the Snow Mountain would not mind if there is a large ice sculpture here, but when Zheng Yichen was "in office", the development policy of this place would not There is no unchanging place for those who have deviated, and Zheng Yichen will not pay attention to this place forever.
There will be no accidents now, but there will be accidents in the future, and if something disgusting is done, then you can't just turn a blind eye and close one eye because of Zheng Yichen's relationship. If it's done, it's okay to be disgusting to others in the future, and if you're so disgusting that you shouldn't offend people, you'll be even colder than they should be.
The relationship needs to be maintained. The relationship between Zheng Yichen and the Lord of the Snow Mountain is purer than that of the empire. No matter how much the Rabst Empire supports magic technology, it still has their own purpose. The Lord of the Snow Mountain has a very good demand. The relationship between them is more pure. This is also the normal process for Zheng Yichen to come to the snow mountain to get materials or other actions, and he did not rely on that rare relationship to mess around.
So when passing the news to the Lord of the Snow Mountain, Zheng Yichen made the relevant matters very clear.
"Your Excellency Connor... that's all right?" The spellcaster next to him looked at Zheng Yichen's behavior with a bit of astonishment, is it that simple? He casually took out a well-packed box and put it on the ground, and then the Ice Beast took it away. Such a simple process gave them, these spellcasters, the illusion that I can do it too.
"It's as simple as you think, don't be misled by me." Zheng Yichen shook his head, without explaining too much, he prefers to do this kind of gift in private, watching that this place is too close to the snow mountain, the Labest Empire The little thought over there... Humph, he didn't have the slightest conscience to condemn the Labst Empire because he spoke so clearly with the Lord of the Snow Mountain.
This kind of preparation for unknown changes in the future may or may not be useful, depending on the future development of this place, whether people's hearts are crooked or not.
"Don't be misled by superficial information, and don't think that the Lord of the Snow Mountain is really easy to talk about. There is no problem with maintaining the status quo. Go back." Zheng Yichen has already made his words very clear and conscientious, and he said with self-knowledge If he knows how to do certain things and the importance of not crossing the line, if he doesn't know himself, even if he explains it in a long way according to the other party's head, the other party will only think that he is fooling people.
Although it's a bit unbelievable, these spellcasters saw that Zheng Yichen said so, and accepted the full of doubts. Damn, the spellcasters have studied a lot of things, and they have also dabbled in history. Unique magic props, in order to obtain that kind of thing, it was built on the premise of considerable sacrifice.
All that was to meet the Lord of the Snow Mountain, and this dragon took out a gift box. They didn't know what was in the box, so they settled everything? Regarding these people's thoughts, Zheng Yichen reacted calmly in his heart, really, he was just a neighbor, did he really think that the Lord of the Snow Mountain was idle, staring at his territory all day long?
There is no need to say this, it is good to keep the status quo, once some things cross the line in my heart, it will be followed by constant testing to the bottom line... Commonly known as death! If someone dies, more people will be able to see the majesty of the Lord of the Snow Mountain. Well, when Zheng Yichen was still here, he was in charge of this matter before it happened.
Now, this research and development base has started the first step.
"Speaking of how to do things like management?" Sitting in his office, Zheng Yichen looked at some documents in front of him. At the beginning, it was okay to say that the things to be done afterwards would be complicated, and it would be easy for him to study various things. After all, there are too many things that can be referred to, but those things are referred to as references, so that when he continues to do research alone, he can do whatever he wants.
It can be changed to a research and development base, a model of a research institute. It must not be the same as before. He can provide many solutions and many research directions, but he is really not good at management, so why not find professional talents?
"What's the matter?" In a bar in Puli Dungeon, Lilia, who looked very leisurely, looked at the magic soldier summoning book in front of her. It was not difficult to see in the bar that Zheng Yichen, who hadn't contacted her very much recently, actually contacted her again. Lilia's first thought about this was that this dragon must cause trouble for herself again!
Speaking of which, she has been very relaxed recently, basically there is nothing to do, the previous problems have completely blown her future training plans, although it is not a loss to completely eliminate the hidden dangers of the body, but after the long-term plan is gone, it is inevitable A little bit confused, she wanted to carry out the matter of revenge fiercely, instead of doing it directly when time was running out.
It's different now, she can get in touch with more opportunities to achieve her goals, there is no benefit to being reckless, her body is intact so that she can calm down and wait, but there are many things that are difficult to do, she is still a saint A member of the church.
"Do you know anyone who is particularly good at management?"
"I know." Lilia replied immediately, what is this dragon going to do? She knows some management talents, some of them are even quite powerful, but those are the ones who have communicated with them before. Now, after she has been gradually marginalized, her contacts with these people have gradually faded away. She continues to Said: "But don't think about it on my side, I told you, can you still go to the Holy Church to dig people?"
kindness? Zheng Yichen slightly raised his brows: "You said this, so I want to try it."
"……"No way! ? Lilia's eyes widened, and she suddenly had the urge to lie, she actually had such thoughts, didn't he just have a fight with the Church of the Holy Church recently?
"Why didn't you talk? Did you really listen?"
"No, what are you doing over there?"
"It's not a big deal, but the Labest Empire wants to vigorously develop magic technology, so it supports my research institute."
Lilia was even more surprised. Does this dragon seem to be working for others: "So you are working for the Rabster Empire now? How much did they pay?"
"The institute is mine."
"Do you believe this?"
"Of course I don't believe it, but since it was given to me, it must be mine. Would you like to come and see it?"
Her eyes narrowed involuntarily, this is the real purpose of this dragon, right? It is still related to that dragon, it is indeed attractive, but the prophet is not within the scope of being attracted, the prophet does not need to study magic and the like, they are more about observation and familiarity with the web of fate , Further understanding belongs to the power of destiny.
"You want to hurt me..."
"You can also say that it is to break into the enemy's interior. Anyway, please help me pay attention."
Lilia smiled nonchalantly, and after replying to Zheng Yichen, the communication ended this time. She held her chin. The recent problems between Zheng Yichen and the Holy Church prevented her from being the same as before. Things with that dragon can be communicated freely. Although she is marginalized, there is still some attention that should be paid.
The prophets in the Church of the Holy Church are not small pawns. After being marginalized, they have no sense of existence. No matter how marginalized the prophets are, their status is much higher than many people. I checked the forum and found relevant information.
And the discussion on this post is quite intense, some people support it and some people oppose it, basically it all revolves around magic technology. Of course, the core conflict is not pointing to the dragon, even the Labst Empire was involved Go in, so the Rabster Empire is really determined.
When they made a decision, they already had such preparations, right? It is conceivable that because of such a policy, the Labest Empire will definitely lose a considerable number of spellcasters in the next period of time. The influence of different ideas will of course attract some spellcasters with the same ideas in the past.
The number of the latter will not be more than the former. Since my unreliable second boss has said so, then pay attention to it a little bit, idle is idle.
After Zheng Yichen contacted Lilia, he contacted other people. His network is very special. It cannot be said to be big, but it is strong enough. After contacting the Potion Masters Association by the way, it was Qin Na By the way, they can find management talents, but the main question is how much should these people manage in the first place?
There is also the Great Wall at the border. I have experienced the advantages of the subway over there. Zheng Yichen can contact many people and come here. For the time being, let’s hold on to it for now. He has to write something. There is a "general outline" about magic technology. , Just like magic, the magic system was originally proposed by humans. Later, a large number of spellcasters continued to study magic and filled the magic system.
Let magic finally have today's mature framework and system. This process is not completed by one person or a group of people, but too many people add bricks and tiles, and gradually improve this system. Magic technology Zheng Yichen can fly part of it, but that is the combination of the traveler's background and the knowledge of other worlds. Now what Zheng Yichen wants to make is for the purpose of building the foundation.
After the foundation has been laid, a few houses with a unique style will be built along the way. Future successors will inevitably be influenced by this style.
