Chapter 756 The Thing That Is Not Contained in the World
After a few moments, Connor finally took a deep breath and said slowly, "The elemental machine you just talked about...... Is it only possible to light the lights? Or is there something else that can be done? ”
Arrow also sensed the sense of vigilance in Connor's words, and after thinking about it, the smile on his face also involuntarily shrank, and said in a slightly tentative tone, "Teacher...... You're aware of that, aren't you? ”
Connor exhaled and said, "I don't know, you're just throwing this kind of information right in my face. Do you still have a connection with the makers of this elemental machine? They are now ...... What state are they in now? ”
Arrow didn't hide it either, and said in a fifteen-ten-ten-one-way manner: "Their condition is not good...... The Origin Guild has been delisted by the state, calling it a cult...... The guild members are also dead and scattered now, and I finally found a former origin guild member who has mastered the core technology......"
Such news did not shock the teacher of economics in the slightest. He just nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "That's right...... This kind of thing is simply not to think about, it is something that is sure to happen. Alas...... Their living conditions are so bad right now...... Can I say they caused it? ”
Arrow also nodded slightly, but he didn't dare to say it like this.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Mr. Connor then said, "Ariel, for your own good, I advise you not to have a relationship with these people in the future. If possible, you'd better persuade the remnants of these Origin Guilds to leave Hanhai City as soon as possible. If you can...... It's best to let them leave the Blue Bay Empire as soon as possible. It's no joke, if you don't get it right, they're going to all die. ”
Seeing that his teacher had now proposed a way to let Tesla leave, Solo was a little puzzled. He frowned and said, "But, Mr. Conna...... If we let them leave our country, won't our country fall behind to a certain extent? If the members of the Origin Guild who have mastered the core technology go to other countries, and other countries also use them, it will not be a good thing for our country! ”
With a snap, Connor's hand slapped on the table next to him. I don't know if this teacher is really angry in his heart, or because his students are still "stubborn" and anxious.
"Ariel, you're a smart kid. As early as when you were still in school at Lao Tengshu, I knew that you had always been a child who was self-motivated and willing to learn systematic knowledge. Unlike the female aristocratic students who come to the economics department for a diploma, you really want to understand and explain the world through study. But...... But ah......"
After exhaling softly, the teacher shook his head and said—
"But that's really not something you can handle. Even...... You don't even know what's going on in the form of Hanhai City right now! ”
After thinking about it, Arrow moved slightly, sat down on top of the pile of books next to him, and put on a serious look, [Shoreline] said, "Mr. Connor, so...... What's going on now? ”
Connor sighed, seeing that this student was still so motivated, there was a hint of relief in his eyes, but at the same time, when he looked at him, he also added a little uneasiness, and continued-
"Your Majesty's physical condition is already very poor. Although it seems to have been kept secret before, in the last two or three years, His Majesty has appeared in public less and less. Instead, the crown prince is now making more appearances. In other words, the power of the royal family is in a state of alternation. ”
"Although Your Majesty is still the leader of our Blue Bay Empire in name, in fact, it should be His Excellency the Crown Prince who is in charge. Unlike His Majesty's management style, our crown prince seems to prefer a posture of holding both forces into his own hands and exercising full authority rather than the previous method of balancing them by keeping the Wizards' Guild and the Holy See at bay from each other. ”
"Ariel, you also know that now the Holy See of Light has the technology to transfer magical elements and artificially create magicians, right? Have you ever wondered why a Holy See, which has been used to suppress the Wizards' Guild since its inception, would study this method of mana transfer instead? ”
This is really a word to wake up the dreamer!
Before this, although Arrow had also thought about why the Holy See would want to help gather more magicians, but seeing so much money, he almost took it for granted that it was for economic reasons.
Perhaps it was precisely because his time was getting tighter and tighter, and when he was approaching the three-year deadline, he began to look at everything and felt that it was an economic factor.
But now, with Connor's little bit, his mind immediately jumped away from purely economic factors, and his mind began to become more active.
And after this kind of thinking was active, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Could it be ...... This is for better checks and balances...... Counterbalancing the Wizards Guild? ”
Connor nodded and said, "You're right. ”
"The Royal Magicians Association has always been a collection of magicians scattered among the people, and although it has the background of the royal family, because the source of magicians cannot be cultivated in batches, the number of new magicians every year will not join this association for various reasons. Therefore, the size of the association is still small on the whole. In terms of the state of the battle, those Guild Mages can only exert their powerful individual combat ability. But it doesn't have the ability to make a large-scale team battle that can change the entire situation of the war. ”
"And at this time, if the Bright Sect had mastered the technique of magic transfer, what do you think would have happened?"
Seeing the teacher's question, Arrow thought for a moment and said, "Since the Holy See of Light has the technology of magic transfer, then they have the power to decide what kind of person can have magic. In other words, they can do their best to train people who are loyal and have a good impression of the Holy See to become magicians. And if such a person enters the Magician Association, in time, the entire Magician Association will become a subsidiary of the Holy See. At that time, the Association will become a weapon in the hands of the Holy See, and it will no longer be able to fight against the Holy See as it is now. ”
Connor nodded and said, "Exactly. Therefore, since the news of the Holy See's magic transfer technology appeared and spread, even those magic teachers who were just serving in the old Teng Shu did not show any cheers. In comparison, they all looked very nervous. Because it is foreseeable that in the near future there will be a contingent of magicians who are completely obedient to the Holy See to become a force in our empire. And it won't be long before this force will squeeze out all those original magicians. ”
Speaking of this, Connor had a dry mouth, poured himself another glass of water, and after taking a sip, he shook his head helplessly, and said, "Of course, this is only a part of the Holy See's mastery of this technique. The other most important factor is that from now on, there will probably never be a 'nobleman who can't do magic' again. ”
"All nobles can gain magical affinity through the transfer of magic power from the Holy See. But this does not mean that the Holy See will be busy. Instead, the Holy See has become a being that can determine to a certain extent who can possess what magic. ”
"Because this technique belongs to the Holy See of Light, of course the Holy See of Light has the final right of interpretation. For example, there are two nobles who don't like each other and want to be able to get a magical affinity. And the Holy See can decide to transfer the more powerful magic affinity to which side the nobles give more money. The bribery operations that can be carried out can be understood without thinking about it, and even the problems that may occur in the future will be even more tortuous and bizarre. ”
"So, let's go back to the question we just discussed, Ariel."
"Do you think that when the Holy See has such great power, at this time you have come up with a magic that can achieve a certain degree of magic without going through the Holy See at all, and it is cheaper! Do you think this kind of thing will be allowed by the Holy See? ”
Arrow was shocked, and his whole body froze because of this.
To be honest, he really didn't think about it.
And the reason why he didn't think about this was because before that, he had all thought that the one with the deepest hostility to the elemental machine should be the Royal Society of Magicians! Isn't it? After all, from the moment it was born, it seems that the Elemental Machine Fight was born to restrain magic.
"I ...... I didn't think about it...... I thought the Mage Guild was the organization that hated elemental machines the most...... And the Wizards' Guild is no matter how strong it is...... It is impossible to do too much under the confrontation of the Holy See of Light......"
With a helpless but slightly relieved smile on the corner of Connor's mouth, he put down the cup and said slowly, "Ariel, I don't deny your enthusiasm, nor do I deny your efforts. You are a good boy, and a good child who wants to break some stereotypes and be self-motivated. If it were me, I would have seen that if the Elemental Machine had so many advantages, I would have thought that this kind of good thing must be promoted on a large scale. ”
