Nine hundred and seven, the Tower of Babel, the Red Net, and the Norton Petty Bourgeois Wizards
In the middle of summer in September, the people of the United Highlands are engaged in the nation-building movement in full swing, while tens of thousands of engineers and researchers are working day and night to the west of the Shenfall Plateau, close to the scorched rock wilderness.
The Zeta Special Technology Zone, which consists of the Zeta Passage, Zeta City and Zeta Super Magic Well, is taking shape at a rate of one hour and one day, and will also be built here in the future, where the second wonder project of the Red Alliance: the Tower of Babel will be erected.
Vicky, the head of technology in Zeta, is in a manic state at the moment, and has not slept for several days, which has also led the engineering and researchers to work with unprecedented enthusiasm. Their mental strength could not be compared with that of saints, but they only slept three or four hours a day.
It was only when Kiri returned from Theros and inspected Zeta as acting cardinal that this unhealthy wind was suppressed. It is required to ensure eight hours of rest every day, even if the magic is restored and the medical team is still taking care of it, there will be problems if it continues like this.
For this reason, Qili was also protested by many people, saying that "even if you are the acting cardinal, a saint, or the incarnation of a beautiful god, you can't deprive us of our labor rights!"
Qili had to bring Anxia and let her take the acting team of Wanmeng Club to do a condolence performance, and even sacrificed herself to perform on stage to calm everyone's emotions.
Qili counted the account on Vicky's head: "I see that you are dissatisfied with being preempted by Hathaway, so you are in such a hurry." I want to build a super magic well or even the Tower of Babel as soon as possible, so that the theory of micro-magic can be carried forward so that I can win back a city. ”
Isn't the theory of micro-magic already being tested in the experimental magic well and the teleportation tower? We must not turn the scientific competition into a struggle for morale and face. ”
When she spoke, she rubbed her little head vigorously, turning her chicken nest head into a bird's nest head.
Vicky was originally a quiet and beautiful girl, who paid great attention to her appearance, and always cleaned herself up neatly and neatly, like a bead on an abacus. Now my hair is messy, and my clothes are crumpled. Fortunately, the witch's physique is not ordinary, but it doesn't have a strange taste like pickled pineapple.
She said unconvinced: "How am I dissatisfied? What kind of magic particles, I don't care about them at all!"
"To regard the movement of all things in the world as a movement between individuals that cannot be further subdivided, thinking that in this way we can grasp the laws of all movements, and we can see everything like the Laplace demon. This is isolated, static, and mechanical academic thinking, which is not in keeping with the spirit of scientific materialism!"
"We don't have the same micro-magic field, we think that everything in the world is related to each other, and it is an organic whole. We discovered the existence of micro-magic fields by observing the mutual movement of things. This is in line with the fundamental recognition of the world by scientific materialism, and that all things in the world are in motion, transformed and closely related to each other!"
The more the materialist witch spoke, the more excited she became, and she pressed her hands on the workbench with full momentum: "Tracing back to the source, this kind of thinking that focuses on the tiny individual comes from the bourgeois free exploitation worldview that pursues the ultimate freedom beyond the collective!"
"We must completely defeat this theory! Then we will step on the ground so that it will never be able to turn over!"
"For the Red Alliance, which believes in the path of Datongism and pursues the complete emancipation of mortals, this theory should be resisted and cleaned up as an evil thought, and it is best to criticize it every day!"
Hey, are you also surnamed Li and your name is Senko?
Qi Li said solemnly: "Magic particles exist objectively, and many magicians have verified the correctness of this doctrine with various examples, so we can't pretend to be invisible because it is different from what we found." ”
Vicky spread her hands: "Here's the problem, we can't see it! Neither the Destiny Mage nor the Endless Mage can see it!"
"Wave-particle duality means that the same person observes different results from different angles, doesn't it mean that two people observes from the same angle and observes different results, right?"
Qi Li stroked her forehead and sighed: "Who let the Finn world have extraordinary power, which is equivalent to a high-dimensional world?"
Previously, Li Qi launched a crow's beak move, saying that the wave-particle duality was said, but Hathaway threw out the magic particle theory, which caused a storm on the side of the magician and the Red Union.
Unfortunately, only magicians can observe magic particles, just as only druids can see Lingzi, and all the Crimson Transcendents of the Red Union cannot observe them. Similarly, the magicians on the side of the Red Federation who have not learned fate and endless magic cannot observe the micro-magic force field.
The reason for this was already clear that the magician observes with the help of natural magic, and the crimson transcendent observes with the help of crimson divine power. Each can see the results of each other's operations, but if you switch to your own operations, you can no longer see them.
"I know everything......
Vicky finally confided in her heart: "I am indeed unwilling, I don't think the magic particle is correct, but it is like Newtonian mechanics, it can give a logical self-consistent statement of the magic of Finn's world, and the numbers are also very accurate. ”
"Hathaway's side has already transformed enchantment technology with magic particles, and the Dawning Empire can catch up with us in many ways with enchantment technology alone. ”
She said worriedly: "I have made a rough calculation, if the existing levitation and flying techniques are transformed by the magic particle theory, the efficiency will be increased by several times or even dozens of times, and the technological advantages we have now will be gone." ”
Qi Li pinched Vicky's neck again and said gently, "As I said before, this kind of thing will happen eventually. The mathematical and scientific methods we brought with us alone were enough to revolutionize the magic of Finn's world. ”
"Hathaway has the heritage of the Golden Family, as well as the mystical powers of the Night Lady, and it is not surprising that she has suffered a lot on our side and worked hard. ”
"The situation in the future may be very bad, the Dawning Empire has a large population of magicians and a deep technical background, once they are all mobilized and put into the magical revolution, maybe they will become the leaders. Of course, this is not what we want to see, but we have to be mentally prepared for it. ”
Wei Ji hummed comfortably, but still glanced at Qili: "That's not what you said, it was Li Qi who said it." ”
A projection lit up on the workbench, it was a very young girl, her appearance and figure were very ordinary, but her identity was extraordinary, it was Serda, one of the four wise spirits.
She retorted to Qi Li: "Your Highness Qi Li, don't distort the facts in order to calm everyone down, we are also in the transition period of technological change." ”
"It's true that the application and development of micro-magic theory is much more difficult than magic particles, but once we have completed the Super Mana Well and the Tower of Babel, we have gained a huge advantage in energy and communication. ”
"Magicians are still far behind us when it comes to ethereal technology, they don't have any concept of programming languages, and they don't realize what it means to have a nuclear crystal that can be universally programmed. ”
"Now that I have completed the underlying analysis of the wind element and the undead core crystal, I am currently testing the assembly language coding of these two types of nuclear crystals, and the foundation laid by His Highness Silk before is progressing very quickly. ”
"Relying on the scalpel of the Micro Magic Theory, borrowing from the soul carving techniques of Master Madara and Taha, when Master Yuzan finishes adjusting the You language, we will be able to turn the nuclear crystal into a general-purpose processor. ”
"As long as everyone learns the language, understands the functions represented by the corresponding type of nuclear crystal assembly library, and corresponds to the benchmark function module of the Crimson Divine Power, they can carry out ethereal programming, and the era of ethereal technology belonging to us has arrived. ”
"The magicians of the Dawning Empire are still technologically in the era of the Industrial Revolution, and we are moving towards the age of the Information Revolution. ”
Zhiling Serda's argument is well-founded and logical, and Chiligan bows to the upper hand.
Everyone knows that don't debate with the Wise Spirits, they will pull your mind to a higher level than they belong to, and then defeat you with far more speed of calculation and depth of logic than ordinary people.
Among the four Wise Spirits, Zelda is still the weakest one, and in terms of strength level, she is only level five.
Now Zhiling has embarked on a stable development path, and each has its own strengths.
Ruthia...... That is, the eldest of the Evanti family, who is still presiding over the Mobile Fortress project, she likes to gather the minds of countless people, and likes to discuss all kinds of novel ideas with everyone. As a mobile fortress project that leads the Red Union project and military technology, it is up to her to integrate tens of thousands of scientific researchers and continue to blossom and bear fruit.
Genie Chenguang is relatively rigid, focusing on engineering manufacturing and automated production technology. Just like when he existed as a prayer seeker, he always liked to fiddle with carpentry.
However, he does not bury his head in those monotonous and repetitive manufacturing work all day long, he is as an "automated production industrial machine", exploring and testing various manufacturing processes, and finding out the most efficient automated production plan. People will customize puppets and automated production lines according to this scheme, so that the corresponding mechanical parts and products can be manufactured on a large scale.
Chenguang's organization has now moved to the Automation Commune, working with a group of automation technology fanatics towards an unbridled goal: to build a wishing machine that can make everything imaginable with just the input of raw materials.
In short, their goal is to make everything tangible appear as they wish, and to produce what they want, without people having to worry about intermediaries, and not having to participate in this monotonous and repetitive production activity.
There were some conflicts between the Automation Commune and the alchemists, and the alchemists also worked hard to achieve this goal through the path of alchemy technology. They are transforming alchemy techniques such as copying and assembly, in an attempt to achieve the functionality and efficiency of automated puppet production lines with simpler techniques.
It's a pity that their leader, the Newborn Witch, doesn't regard alchemy as her only field, and doesn't give them much support, leaving them at a disadvantage in the competition with the Automation Commune.
Jade is still working in the Eco-Park, and she is now on the spiritual side, being the chief slime breeder in the Slime Commune, and working for the harvest commune led by the three legendary druids, researching the increase in yields and breeds of various natural crops and livestock.
Serda has sublimated in her monotonous work of working with ethereals, and together with Vicky she discovers the theory of micro-magic, her goals are not as comprehensive and expansive as Vicky's, and she has her eyes on ethereal technology.
Serda's confidence has also been contagious to other researchers, and Matos, who is Vicky's assistant and is responsible for the engineering of the Super Mana Well and the Tower of Babel, said, "We've been following the application of magic particles, and we haven't seen much of it in action until now. Hathaway only published a very rough theoretical content, and did not say the corresponding formulas and parameter settings. ”
"Of course, mages are eager to learn more about magic particles, and the real signs are only the family workshops of some high-level mages. They came up with new magic particle-based magic guides in the directions of mirage, puppet, teleportation, and protection, and most of them were based on enchantment technology. From this, it can be seen that Hathaway, like these high-level magicians, still wants to monopolize profits by monopolizing magical knowledge, just like in the Storm Islands era. ”
"Magic particles will definitely be manifested in some important places, such as flying ships, and floating ships, but to surpass us in an all-round way, as His Highness Qi Li said, they must mobilize all magicians to devote themselves to the study of magic particles to have any hope. With their current monopoly system, I don't think it will work. ”
Vicky added, "I'm afraid the Goddess of Order won't allow a magician to re-emerge with magic particles and trample his clergy and followers under his feet, right?"
Of course it won't be allowed, so ......
Qi Li didn't say anything, she felt that the appearance of magic particles was a good thing for the development of the Red Federation, and even the historical process of the Finn world. This will inevitably make the fundamental contradiction between the goddess of order and the magician surface little by little, make the internal stress of the Dawning Empire stronger, and make the eternal order delusional of the goddess of order farther and farther away from him.
That's why Kiri doesn't want to participate in Romulus's attack on the Dawning Empire......
Then Qili saw another perspective projected on the workbench, which was like a network, but it was different from an information network.
"Crimson Divine Magic Network!"
It seems that this is Vicky's work, and she proudly introduces it to Qili: "Red Net for short!"
"When the micro-magic theory is more mature, the Tower of Babel has been built, the ethereal spirit technology has been perfected, and the underlying code of the Crimson Divine Power has also been realized, this will be the third wonder project of our Red Alliance!"
"Through the connection of a specific ethereal spirit to this network, not only can information exchange be realized, but also various crimson magic can be used, the specific situation is similar to the magic net, but the function is stronger than the magic net. ”
"At that time, as long as you know a Crimson Divine Technique, even if it is only a zero-level one, you can call the Crimson Divine Technique of a higher level and other systems through the red network. ”
"Of course, there will still be permissions based on level and divine power, and there will be various restrictions across departments, but at least you can collaborate through the network and let other people help you cast divine magic, although it is possible that person is thousands of miles away. ”
"If you want to talk about the red network carefully, Qili, you don't want to leave tonight......"
Qi Li quickly shook her head, shaking her pointed ears and shaking them, it sounded terrible, not Vicky's invitation, but this red net.
The first thing that came to her mind was security: "This thing...... Is it reliable?"
You must know that in the electric egg, a certain king of bear children who does not become immortal has made a great death by breaking the magic net.
The magic net is still like this, it's just a red net of derivatives of the magic net, how good can it be?
"Our red web follows the principle of the truth-magic net", Vicky explained: "The magic net that the goddess of magic now has in her hands only represents a part of the natural magic net that the magician knows and comes into contact with, so a personified goddess of magic will be born." ”
"This magic net is centralized, and if something goes wrong with the goddess of magic, this web will also go wrong, and it may even collapse. Of course, it will not bring about the destruction of the world, after all, this net is only a small part of the natural magic net, at most it will do a major cleaning for the main plane or other planes, and clean up mortals and all kinds of animistic things, in short, the existence of souls and can touch the magic net. ”
"The real natural magic web is distributed and decentralized, that is, the source magic field that runs through the entire Finn world. The micro-magic theory is only a part of this force field, but the crimson divine power we touch this force field comes from independent and free souls, which makes our red net the same as the source magic force field, each existence is a node. ”
"There will be a center on the red net, that is Sister Xiaohong, but she is only responsible for accelerating the flow and fusion of power, even if she is gone, it will only affect the efficiency of this net, which is no different from the current situation. ”
"We can also use the Ethereal Spirit to turn every magic well, communication tower, protective barrier, and even every magic guide car into a node of the red web. The more nodes, the higher the security. ”
Qi Li listened and nodded constantly, this red network is actually to make the crimson divine power and magic manifest, and create a network that can be communicated through the void spirit, this is to fundamentally transform the crimson divine power, to turn Xiaohong into a crimson magic goddess.
Considering that the crimson divine power is a pure power of faith, this red net is also a manifestation of the spiritual action on matter. Once it is really built, Xiaohong's pure divinity will also be stripped from her body and stored in this net, and it is really good to have such a future.
Like Li Qi, Little Red will realize the transformation from god to man!
Qi Li suppressed the throbbing in her heart with a straight face, and explained to Wei Ji and said, "This is still a little old, you can try it from your part first......"
She turned to her workbench, "Let's look forward to something more realistic, like this one...... Super magic well, how much magic power can be output, what can be done. ”
"It's not magic, it's the power of fate," says Vicky, happy to be able to correct Kiri's mistakes: "It's from the perspective of us mages of destiny who observes and uses the magic of nature, and what we get is not just magic. ”
Serda swiped out lines of data: "Our rough estimate is that the energy that can be obtained from the first phase of the Super Mana Well project is equivalent to the energy that thirty-seven Rank 7 Legends can output at the same time. ”
Qi Li secretly gasped......
So why add a "super"? It's because for this huge "magic hydroelectric power station", even if it's a legendary magician, it's just a unit of measurement for its power.
Thirty-seven seventh-level legends are equivalent to saying that with this super magic well, the forbidden spell has become an ordinary attack.
Vicky recounted the troubles of happiness: "Such a powerful power also brings a lot of problems, whether the magic circuit can afford it, how to get the magic power storage, whether the magic transmission network can be done like the power grid, in short, there are still many problems that have not been solved." ”
Qili's heart was also extremely hot, and she regretted the eight-hour rest order issued before. Get this super magic well done early, and a lot of things will be easier to do.
She asked a little puzzled: "There are so many researchers gathered, but can't you take care of them?"
Matos knew this aspect of the situation best, and said helplessly: "Our team is seriously biased, most of them have transferred from low-level mages and arcane masters to fate mages, and high-level mages are in heavy positions in mobile fortresses and other projects, and there is a great lack of middle-level talents. You must have your own magic tower and have an overall understanding of magic wells and magic projects in order to have the ability to take on a certain field. ”
Speaking of this, he muttered, "If that Santarim from Norton can defect to us, it will solve the big problem, and those people have their own magic towers." ”
I'm afraid this is a bit ......
Qili shook her head and said, "The intelligence bureau is also in contact with them, but don't expect too much. They don't have the strong will to abandon everything and start from scratch, they are a bunch of petty bourgeoisie, very weak. ”
Matos smiled: "Your Highness is right, that Santarin will look down on us who are from the magicians, and ask them to come to the Red Union to follow us...... They can't stand the company of inferior people. ”
Vicky still had a glimmer of hope: "If you can get a few, count a few, there should always be a few who want to start from scratch." ”
Kiri said, "Hopefully......"
..................
To the southeast of the Kingdom of Redstone, the Kingdom of Norton, where the mountains are majestic, desolate and secluded. The mountains are dotted with countless emerald waterholes and lush woodlands, forming habitable places.
Since the beginning of the War of Dawn, Norton has undergone two major changes. One was a revolution initiated by the Norton Council to overthrow the rule of the nobility, which was also related to the Fei Gong and was extinguished by Theresia with a thunderbolt.
The second time was after the establishment of the Dawning Empire, Archduke Norton and his successor did not correct their positions, and were finally captured by Theresia, confiscated the archduke's right to rule, and turned this place into a satrapy directly under the empire.
The third incident did not happen, and that was when the cardinal of the Fergus claimed ownership of the area, but did not have the support of the Empress.
In order to eliminate the threat that the weakening of the aristocracy would lead to the rise of civilian power after the death of the Grand Duke, the empress implemented a preferential policy for magicians in Norton, attracting a large number of magicians to settle in.
The people who came were all low- and middle-level magicians, who relied on the low-level titles of the Empire, and then cooperated with the joint communication network through loans and mortgages, etc., to build countless magic towers here, which soon weakened the rule of the remaining nobles and turned Norton into an autonomous region of magicians.
These magicians have become new nobles, and naturally the original Norton commoners have been crushed under them. However, their own strength is weak, and they can only take care of each other, so there is an organization like the Santarin Society.
The symbol of the Santarim Society is that the three white towers overlap in dislocation to form a triangle, which is then enclosed by a rune circle. Such signs can be seen everywhere on Norton's magic tower, and they are no longer an underground organization. Ever since the Arcanist's fleet entered Norton, the sign has appeared on the Tower at a rate of several times a day, reminding a great being who pretends to have a mortal heart.
In the afternoon sun, the magic tower shrouded in enchantment was extremely cool. Through the window, seeing the civilians busy in the fields and roads outside the enchantment in the distance, with layers of salt flowers on their bodies, an old magician said in a sympathetic tone: "The empire is strong, the people suffer, the empire is weak, the people also suffer, we, the people, are the food of the ruler's mouth." ”
Another magician said, "So, it's better to be your own master......
This magician is not very old, but his attitude towards the old magician is not that of the junior to the senior, but rather the aura of the superior.
He had a neatly trimmed mustache on his lips, a cleanly shaved chin, a handsome appearance, his eyes were always floating and unstoppable, and his whole person was filled with the certainty that no power in the world could overwhelm him.
"It's time for the Red Union to hire people now, you will get good treatment if you go to the past......"
The young magician said, "Look at it, Rowanna's two ordinary apprentices are now the top few leaders in the affairs of the Red Union Magician. Magicians with a little bit of background can stand alone there. ”
The old magician sighed, "Zold, I really regret that I didn't follow you to the redstone in the first place, but now I still don't think it's reliable in the direction you pointed." After all, it was a Red Alliance, a place where magicians were not allowed to have their own magic towers, and magicians were not allowed to have lords and slaves like nobles. ”
"I can't stand these two things, let alone the other limitations. I'm older and I just want to live my life in peace. I'm content to come out of the Storm Islands and get a viscount, a small territory and a magic tower, and rule over hundreds of commoners. ”
The young magician, who was none other than Zold-Mildern, "Her Majesty's eternal watchdog" and "the cardinal's eternal good friend," shook his head and chuckled: "Who can let you retire in peace now?
The old magician's cheeks twitched, and that was the source of his pain.
