Chapter 1006: Shock (End)
It wasn't just Hank and the others who were shocked, but even Archmage Nicholas and Archmage Chris, who were dumbfounded in the face of all this. They knew www.biquge.info more than Hank's apprentices, so at a glance they could see through the central meaning of what Jenn was doing -- that is, to popularize magic.
It's not just about using magic in every aspect, it's about making it accessible to ordinary people! Compared to the Wizard Empire, this can be said to be a complete, subversive architecture!
"How could he do that! This is simply a blasphemy against magic!! ”
Striding around the room, Archmage Chris was furious, for him, what he saw in front of him was unbearable. The idea of the Wizard Empire is that anything related to magic must be in the hands of a mage. Because only mages can deeply understand how terrifying these magic items are, in their opinion, it is simply dangerous and imprudent to let ordinary people use magic items. But here, on this battleship, they didn't even see a single mage, let alone a legendary mage, not even a mid-level mage! And these people in charge of operating this battleship are just some girls who don't know much about magic!
This is just nonsense!!
At this moment, Chris's mood is almost like seeing a group of bear children tossing the space shuttle, and it is simply indescribable anger.
Archmage Nicholas, on the other hand, was not so angry as Chris, as he had been to Passus several times, so he naturally expected this. In fact, in Passus, Jenn has already begun to show signs of this, whether it is the construction of new towns, or the underground shelters, and the trains that surround the city, these are obviously magical tools made from ordinary people. Truth be told, Nicholas was not as angry as Chris, but rather fascinated. Historically, the Wizards were thought to be created to assist mages, but Jenn clearly didn't build them from that perspective. On the contrary, his attitude is that of pure practicality -- a magic guide built to make it easier for people to travel, transport, and work.
"Alright, Chris, don't be so excited......... In fact, many of these magic guides are not particularly harmful........."
Seeing Chris's pale face and almost turning his back on his back, Archmage Nicholas couldn't help but smile helplessly and said. In fact, as Nicholas said, the reason why the magic guides of the magic empire are harmful is because they are used to assist mages, some of them are to enhance the strength of spells, and some are for sealing, such things are definitely not something that ordinary people can touch. But the magic guides that Jenn had made were all monolithic. For example, trains and subways are specially used for transportation, and the crystal lamps used for lighting are simply used for lighting, and there are no messy enchantments or spells in them. The spells used for projection are used for surveillance -- to put it bluntly, everything Jenn creates is very "specialized." They're not like the mage's magicians, and they're eager to get a 10-plus-1 pack, or a 365-in-1 super game version. They are what they have to do.
Seeing a lot of the complicated tricks made by the mages, all of these designed under Jenn's concept gave Archmage Nicholas a very clean and neat strange beauty. So far from being as angry as Archmage Chris, he was still quite fascinated by it--of course, looking at the angry appearance of his colleague, he didn't say much, so as not to provoke the other party.
"So what?!"
Sure enough, hearing Nicholas's words, Archmage Chris became more and more angry.
"The magic guide is a tool that only mages can use, not for ordinary people to pretend! Not to mention, it is so wasteful in order to cater to those ordinary people! It's a crime at all!! Didn't he know that even cultivating a mid-level mage could play a far greater role than he wasting like this?!! ”
Hearing Archmage Chris's angry complaints, Archmage Nicholas also shook his head. What Chris said is exactly what most people in the Wizard Empire think. Indeed, Jenn's approach, while simple and convenient, seemed too wasteful to the mages. For example, the communication system that fills the inside of the battleship, Jenn set it up separately from "amplification" and "projection". However, a mid-level mage can use both spells at the same time, which can not only reduce the consumption of magic materials, but also make it easier to set up.
Not to mention, deep down in the hearts of the archmages of the Magic Empire, magic is a noble art and science, and it is not at all acceptable to those ordinary civilians. In their opinion, what Jenn did was like moving a noble and elegant symphony to a crowded vegetable market to play "Twisting Yangge......... This is nothing short of a blasphemy against the magical civilization as a whole!!
Unfortunately, no matter how much Archmage Chris complained, it was useless, because the fate pact had been signed, and they went to Passus as observers, only to observe, but not to meddle in the things. So no matter how angry Archmage Chris was, he couldn't have the slightest influence on Jenn and these apprentices.
And that's not all...............
"Moreover, everything he has done is simply to flout the authority of our Demon Empire!!"
Speaking of this, Archmage Chris slammed his fist on the table even more, and the teacups on the table jumped up.
If the attitude and philosophy of magic that Jenn showed before only made Archmage Chris angry, then what he did next almost made Archmage Chris angry. At the time of selecting apprentices, Jenn had already accepted dozens of mages as agreed. Most of them are mid-level mages, and some are high-level mages. Some of them were interested in Jenn's ideas, some of them simply couldn't get along in the Wizarding Empire, and some of them wanted to take the opportunity to go further and gain the power and status that they couldn't get in the Wizarding Empire.
But what these mages didn't expect was that after gathering them, the first thing Jenn said was to ask them to completely copy all their spell knowledge, and then collect it into a book for people to learn!
As soon as these words came out, many mages suddenly exploded, their knowledge was all inherited from their predecessors, and many of them were even secrets, and now, Jenn actually asked them to contribute all the knowledge they had? This is even more unacceptable to the mages than taking their lives!!
However, Jenn did not take these mages' protests to heart, on the contrary, he just gathered these mages, and then announced one thing again - that is, the spells they contributed would be collected in the future and distributed to other students according to their difficulty and level......... In addition to this, the name of the contributor will be added to the end of this knowledge.
As soon as these words came out, almost all the mages went crazy.
A mage is also a human being, and what a man does is nothing more than power, power, status, fame, beauty, wealth......... Of course, mages are not exempt from vulgarity. In particular, most of these mages recruited by Jenn are not very powerful, so for them, fame and wealth are almost all their pursuit!
And now, Jenn actually said that the magical knowledge they contributed would be named after them! For those mages, it's like a hungry wolf seeing a fat and tender lamb, and his saliva is about to flow out, isn't it!!
If it is really according to what this lord said, then in the future, the fireball technique will not be called the fireball technique, but will be renamed "Hans fireball technique", and the cryo ray will not be called the cryo ray, but "Elva's cold beam", and even the light technique will not be called the light technique, but can be called "Dark Vinson's Shining Light"!
The thought of those mage apprentices in years, decades, and even centuries from now will have to learn the spells that bear their name, and they will be recorded in history along with them............... Archmage Morgan who invented the "Morgan Dark Tentacles............ Alas, this is a temptation that kills people!!
You must know that before this, only those who are qualified to name spells are those who are particularly powerful, of course, even so, the naming of these spells is not so casual, first of all, this spell must be very rare, and no one else has. The second is that the spell must be in the category of "filling a number of gaps at home and abroad" in order to be eligible for the name of the spell. It's like if an astronomical observation discovers a new asteroid, then the discoverer is qualified to name the asteroid, and whether the asteroid will be called "eggplant" or "cucumber" depends entirely on what the discoverer was doing at the time............
At the moment, of course, these mages do not have such abilities, and all they have is a few small skills. For example, if you shorten the chanting time of "Light Magic" a little, or reduce the amount of mana consumed, or you can use some clever way to perform silent pronunciation......... Little tricks like that, the great mages can't look at them, and they can't get better ones. If you change the previous one, this can basically be regarded as chicken ribs.
But after Jenn put forward this new condition, these mages suddenly became enthusiastic, of course, at the beginning, they were not without problems, after all, most of the spells mastered by these people are very common, you know the fireball technique, I can also use the fireball technique, the big deal is not a serial fireball, isn't this still a fireball technique? You consume less mana, but I chant fast, and I'm sure my fireball skills are better than yours!
Everyone wants to be famous in history, so it was a lot of noise at first. However, Jenn also quickly came up with another solution -- those who contributed the same spell could join forces to study it and then produce results. As for the names of the spells, they can think of them together, and of course, the names of the mages who participated in the research will also be recorded in history -- and this will also become a special "magic history course" for others to learn.
Not just mage apprentices, but even ordinary people have to learn this course to understand the great contributions these mages have made to their lives!
Under such temptation, the mages who were reluctant to obey at first immediately switched sides and began to participate in the work enthusiastically. But in the eyes of Archmage Chris, the worldly, greedy expressions of these mages are simply disgusting! The mysteries of magic are to be pursued, not to be bought and sold like commodities! That damn lord, what the hell did he do with magic!!
During this period, Archmage Chris wanted to argue with Jenn more than once, but was stopped by Archmage Nicholas, after all, they were just observers, and it was useless to say anything, so at the moment, the only thing Archmage Chris could do was to complain here.
"Alright, Archmage Chris, don't get so excited. Isn't it about to get to the 'school city' they say? I think there's going to be a lot of interesting stuff waiting for us. ”
"Humph!!"
Hearing Archmage Nicholas's comfort, Archmage Chris snorted coldly.
"By doing so, he's blaspheming magic! I wouldn't accept this in any case!! (To be continued.) )
