One hundred and forty-nine We must speed up the construction of the magic industry
A few days after Richie returned to Epsilon, he received a secret letter from Rowanna. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the letter, he informed Aurora's situation in the tone of an elder who was so kind that Li Qi was numb that he said that he would "take care of her for you", so that Tina, who was hiding behind Li Qi and secretly reading the letter, couldn't help but scold her cheekiness.
Ravaging the ears of the witch of death, so that she left satisfied, Li Qi continued to read the letter, and found that the main drama was behind.
Rowanna greatly lowered the prices of various magic equipment, and promised that there were any special needs that could be customized and developed, and at the same time, the supply of raw materials was also guaranteed, and she only hoped to get the fragments of the divine corpse as soon as possible.
This made Li Qi feel that there was something big that he didn't know yet, and a document attached to the back of the letter made Li Qi even more dumbfounded, it was actually Artur's apprentice contract!
The contract states that Rowanna, as Artur's magical mentor and workshop employer, has all personal rights to Artur. Artur may not claim any additional rights and benefits other than being responsible for his magical teaching and living expenses.
The contract was valid for thirty years from Artur's apprenticeship, with sixteen years remaining.
If Artur is promoted to the rank of Hero, Rowanna will need to re-sign a contract with Artur. The new contract is much more lenient, and even Artur has the right to refuse the new contract and go out on his own. Of course, this option is the same as the rights clause of Party B in the contract, but it is just good-looking.
Looking at the rigor and versatility of the provisions, it is very much like a standard contract. Considering that Artur is a commoner and was chosen by Rowanna as an apprentice when he was a child, Li Qi finally understood what kind of existence the "Magician" was, just like the apprentice craftsmen in the small town of Prell before.
According to the supplementary terms of the deed, Rowanna has the right to transfer Artur as property, so giving the deed to Richie means that Richie has the ownership of Artur.
Li Qi struck while the iron was hot, summoned Artur, and when he saw this contract, Artur's face was like ashes, and he knelt on the ground on the spot.
He muttered as if fate had fallen, "What did I do wrong......"
Li Qi was a mortal after all, and said dissatisfiedly: "Is it a miserable thing to come to me?"
Artur quickly apologized, and said very sincerely: "Then I will no longer be a member of the Mage Federation, and I will no longer be able to continue on the path of magic." ”
Artur had just come to Epsilon, and had spent his days on the construction site, preparing to build a large magic well, and he had no sense of Epsilon's unique atmosphere.
Li Qi thought about it for a while and decided to push back the matter of transforming Artur and let him work with peace of mind first.
"If it's just the magic path, you don't have to worry about losing your chance. When the work of the Divine Well is complete, I will have a legendary-level magician take you as an apprentice. ”
Artur showed a suspicious look, and Li Qi said again: "You are already familiar with the design drawings of the Divine Power Well and the portal, which are his works. ”
Artur perked up: "Count, really?"
Then he bowed his head in fear: "I don't doubt the Earl's words, but I'm too happy." ”
Sure enough, it was still a slave posture.
Reassuring Artur, Litchie was relieved that Epsilon finally had a reliable magician.
Then he fell back into deep thought.
Rowanna didn't have many apprentices in the first place, and she gave Artur to herself, and this gesture of favor was not because she misunderstood her relationship with Aurora and regarded herself as a real nephew. From the previous meeting in the hall, it could be seen that she did not have deep feelings for Aurora, the niece,
So, what kind of changes made Rowanna work hard to tie herself up?
Richie's question was answered the next day.
Dragonmaiden, Ada, and Aurora each wrote to each other, saying the same thing, and that something had changed in the Storm Islands.
They had no access to the upper echelons of the Mage Federation, and they did not know the details, so they only talked about the changes they were exposed to.
The news of the little dragon girl is particularly shocking, because of the change in the Mage Federation, the headquarters of the Business Federation is about to be finished! Now the Hadron Chapter can directly face all the magic workshops of the entire Mage Federation, all the magic guide products, and the catalog price has plunged!
Ada's news is that she is going to face stiff competition from countless peers. It is said that many magic workshops are about to enter the mainland, setting up mirage circles and even photography workshops! She was determined to join Li Qi after completing the photography work for the decisive battle, and continued to learn advanced photography techniques to ensure her status and reputation as a photographer pioneer.
Aurora's news is very interesting, saying that Rowanna is in a good mood these days and is very ...... Gloat.
Combining these news, Richie came to a conclusion.
Magician, it's time to enter......
This made him feel heavier pressure, the storm of era change was blowing more and more fiercely, and the progress on his side was too slow.
..................
"Richie, the magician is coming in. ”
After reporting her judgment to the goddess, the goddess repeated in the light screen.
"The Rose Corpse should be the focus of Rowanna's development, and it will also be the focus of attention of other magicians and arcanists. The Divine Fall Plateau will be more lively, and the construction of our magic industry must be accelerated", and then she put forward an opinion with practical content.
This is also nonsense, and the foundation of the magic industry has not yet been established on my side.
To be precise, the foundation of this foundation has not yet been completed.
What level of Finn's magic technology is, and how high the productivity it can support, is still a huge question mark.
Floating ships, concealment and protective enchantments, space passages, portals, magic secret letters, and gods and demons networks, all of which are super black technologies in the earth world, and even the insignificant magic technology of the Heart Whisper Book is also a lifetime series on the earth.
But these things are very fragmented, fragmented, and have nothing to do with the lives of ordinary people.
"Our laws of reason require that everything in the world be measurable, and I think we can do some testing and build an initial rough model by comparison. ”
You Zan's little bald head also appeared on the light screen, and Li Qi was very surprised, what is going on?
And this guy is "our law of reason" when he speaks, and he seems to be an earthling, which is simply a traitor!
The goddess said, "I'm on hands-free right now." ”
"I'll just say it", Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "You can forget about the pop-up window, and then let this guy give me the pop-up window, what has become of me?
The goddess glared: "The whole family bucket!? I have an inspiration when you say this, just don't find any body for Youzan, just let it stay in the kingdom of God and be ready to pop your window at any time." I can also take a break and stop having to be online 7X24 with some guy who is jealous of the skull. ”
"I'm jealous!? How could I possibly eat it...... No, how could I eat ...... because of you"
Li Qi's weak defense, the second half of the sentence made Little Red Riding Hood raise his eyebrows: "What? I don't care about my status in my heart? Are you going to rebel?"
Li Qi hurriedly straightened his posture: "No, I care very much, Her Majesty, the goddess whose wisdom is rampant in thousands of universes!"
"The Earl is truly His Majesty's first patron," You Zan sneered beside him.
"Is it okay now?"
Richie felt that this guy was an eyesore.
"I'll let it sort out the technological context of the earth world and see which ones can be used for Finn," the goddess shrugged, "It's a big project. ”
"Then take it as a daily task and do it slowly, and focus on the construction of the Epsilon first!"
Litchie was determined to give this guy a task, preferably keeping it busier than Artur.
He remembered his previous plan: "For example, the psychic network I mentioned. ”
The goddess agreed: "Yes, this is a very necessary subject, and we can at least achieve informatization first." ”
Yuzan said confidently: "This is just a trivial matter, of course, I have to have deep contact with Witch Rose, at least to be able to access their psychic network." ”
"It's a small thing," Li Qi smiled faintly, looking forward to it.
After digging a hole for Youzan, Li Qi's mind turned back to the construction of the magic guide industry. Yuzan is right, you can start with the test.
Considering the needs of reality, Epsilon's magic industry will inevitably prioritize weapons and equipment, and Li Qi chose this direction for testing.
..................
Epsilon is now divided into two areas, in addition to the level where the teleportation hall of the Grand Temple of Rose comes out, there is a small valley with an area of less than one square kilometer below, which has just cleared the environment and is ready for subsequent development.
A row of human-shaped stakes had been erected near the cliff in the valley, and Gambit put iron armor on one of the stakes and ran away as fast as he could.
Thirty or forty meters away, Sardar raised a weapon that was strange to the Finnians.
Long iron pipes are tied to a wooden base, with a horn-like opening at one end and a thick hammer at the other.
Dwarven muskets, because the main body of the dwarven race has disappeared in the tide of human expansion, and only a few races live in the tundra wasteland of the far north, and this weapon is no longer known.
Li Qi also stumbled upon such a thing during the operation to drive away the adventurers, and then got guidance from Youzan and knew the general principle and how to use it.
The principle of this weapon is similar to that of the musket of the Earth world, and it also uses gunpowder, but only with the same name and completely different composition.
The existence of supernatural power makes Finn's physical laws slightly different from those of Earth. Although there are all the ingredients needed to make gunpowder, the power of what is made according to the recipe of the Earth world is far less than the "gunpowder" here.
To put it simply, gunpowder here is more like a primitive magic.
It was the first time Sardar had used it, but he had been trained by his father since he was a child in strict accordance with the standards of knighthood, and he was the best tester with a bow and crossbow.
Litchie gave the order, and Sardar pulled the trigger. With a bang, he was shaken and almost fell on his back.
"No wonder it's only for dwarves," the knight muttered shamelessly.
The iron armor on the stake is a common soldier's item, the front armor is about three millimeters thick, and its defensive power is similar to that of medieval plate armor in the Earth world.
The projectile fired by the dwarven musket made a hole in the chest of the iron armor, and was shallowly embedded in the wooden stake, which would have a certain lethality after the armor was broken if it was replaced by a human.
In this comparison, this dwarven musket is about as powerful as the arquebus of the Middle Ages on Earth.
Attaching a Level 3 all-resistance leather armor to another stake, Sardar continued the test, this time choosing to shoot on one knee.
The result was not unexpected, the projectile did not penetrate the leather armor, but only smashed a slight dent in the stake behind the leather armor.
In other words, as long as the Wizard armor is worn, the Dwarven Musket will not be able to deal effective damage.
The next test was a bit exciting, as Wilson stood in the clearing, wearing all-resistance leather armor and a mage helmet with a mask, and a thorny shield spread.
Sardar grinned: "Don't be scared!"
After saying that, he pulled the trigger, and did not give Wilson time to prepare mentally.
The projectile slammed into the shield of light, sending a series of ripples, and soon regained its calm, leaving Wilson himself unmoved.
"That's it?"
Wilson said disdainfully, "It's stronger than the arrows of the skeleton archers." ”
The light shield of the third-level thorn fortress was enough to protect the dwarven musket, and seeing Wilson so easy, Li Qi felt that even with the modern rifles of the earth world, he could not penetrate Wilson's light shield.
Of course, whether he can use a shield to block the Maxim heavy machine gun like Wonder Woman depends on how high Wilson's limit is.
"It's lost, it's useless," Richie said to Sardar, who threw the heavy weapon aside without hesitation.
