Chapter 42 Servers

"I've been waiting for two of you... Belch... Please wait a little longer. ”

Not long after the gray-robed mage Rursk looked away from the letter, another owl with brown spots on its back flew in.

It's just that this owl is not as chic as it was just now, it fell on the table in a very embarrassed posture with its face on the ground first, and a few feathers on its body fell off, and after a few waves of its wings, it barely stood up on the table, and then put a letter in front of the gray-robed mage.

He picked up the old envelope, the letter was largely mutilated, and the handwriting was blurry, and he could only vaguely read the title on it: "How to Dispel the Undead with Healing as the Main Inscription - The Twelfth Issue of the Owl Pen Ppal"

The gray-robed mage Rursk looked at the letter and the old owl, one of the founders of the owl pen pal club.

This pen pal has no official nature, and he doesn't even know who the members are, if he has any doubts, he just writes down his doubts on a piece of paper and asks the owl to bring them to the other pen pal members.

After a few back-and-forths, he could always see many replies when the letters came back to him.

But it was unreliable to get a truly academic response, but he liked the way it was freely discussed.

We don't know each other's identities, so we can have a truly equal dialogue and express our opinions.

But if you want to get a reply, you need to wait too long and too long, usually more than two months, and the questions you write can be returned to your hands through the owl.

This is still a case of good luck, and if you are unlucky, you may not get a reply for the rest of your life.

If he remembered correctly, this letter was one of the first letters, which had recorded replies from magicians from all over Nolan, but had now become tattered and a piece of wasted paper.

In addition to sighing, he also has heartache.

"Let's go, old fellow......"

The gray-robed mage untied a silk scarf from the old owl's feet, allowing the old owl to retire.

It tilted its head to look at him, and suddenly let out a chirp, as if a little reluctant.

The gray-robed mage rubbed the owl's feathers and carried it to the window, and the owl waved its wings away.

"It's finally working now, sorry to keep you waiting."

The gray-robed mage sorted out the items on the desk, and Qiao Xiu and Ciri also sat at the desk.

"May I ask if the letters brought by those owls just now are random?"

But before registering a patent for the camera, Joshua was intrigued by the beginnings of this magician forum.

"Of course it's random, they don't deliberately go to and from any place, are you interested in pen pals too?"

The Grey-robed Mage was proud of the pen pal club he founded, and through thousands of owls, nearly 10,000 spellcasters in the city of Nolan participated in academic discussions one after another, although this number was insignificant for Nolan's population base.

"No, I just think this tedious format of discussion could be improved a little." Qiao Xiu said.

"Improvements?"

The Grey Master admits that it is very cumbersome to deliver letters through an owl, but this is the only way to get the envelope into someone's hands, if it is a face-to-face discussion... Then a low-level magician would not have the qualifications to speak at all.

"That's probably the way it works."

Qiao Xiu waved his hand lightly, and a white window appeared in front of Qiao Xiu, and this was the paragraph that appeared on the window.

The gray-robed mage looked puzzled, as if he didn't understand the role of this window.

In order to explain to him further, Qiao Xiu sent another message to Ciri.

Ciri, who received the message, silently moved the interface of Ping Pong away from the chat window, and finally directly embodied the interface of the chat window with magic power.

"It's... This... This ......"

The gray-robed mage Rursk couldn't speak at all when he looked at this scene, in addition to being the founder of the Owl Pen Ppal, he also had the identity of the founder of the Patent Council, and he had seen a lot of amazing inventions over the years.

And Qiao Xiu's display is a bit mediocre compared to those 'magic machines that can replace carriages'.

But as a lover of correspondence, a spellcaster eager to discuss his ideas with more people and gain more knowledge, Rulske instantly understood the value of the white form in front of Qiao Xiu!

"With a little bit of time, I can get more people involved in a discussion with the gadgets that have been edited with the Order Inscriptions, and... It is perfect for saving the data discussed. ”

Qiao Xiu's further explanation made the gray-robed mage so excited that he could hardly continue to sit in his seat.

"But at present, the maximum communication distance is only about 200 meters, and the message sent beyond this distance cannot be received."

Qiao Xiu's words seemed to pour cold water on the gray-robed mage, making his excitement disappear.

A distance of a few hundred meters... It's better to discuss it in person than to be at such a distance.

"There's... What is the method of expansion? He asked Qiao Xiu with a hint of expectation.

"Of course, I need a server."

Qiao Xiu is currently using his own mental power as a network cable, and his brain as a local area network as a data terminal, and if he wants to achieve ultra-long-distance transmission, it is essential to establish the Internet.

But Qiao Xiu couldn't find any 'primordial crystal' that could carry the amount of data on the Internet.

A primordial crystal with hundreds of inscriptions is already the limit, and a better one is thousands or even tens of thousands.

But what is the concept of data that the Internet is? The data of the Internet on the earth can be described as torrents, although the server of a forum does not need to be so large, but Qiao Xiu is not satisfied with building a forum on the Internet.

A potato server like Ubisoft's is definitely not good, and Qiao Xiu at least needs to find a high-grade leek server.

"Server?"

"To put it simply, it is a 'primordial crystal' that can store a large number of inscriptions"

The higher the quality of the original crystal, the higher the price, the geometric increase, the original crystal that can only store a few inscriptions may only need one or two gold coins, and the original crystal that can store hundreds of original crystals is directly a hundred upwards.

Most of the primordial crystals with the inscriptions were worthless, except for a few that stored powerful magical inscriptions.

"How much?"

The gray-robed mage has seen many high-quality primordial crystals in his life, which can carry tens of thousands of inscriptions, and even hundreds of thousands of millions.

"100 million, of course, if it's temporary, it's okay to use 100,000 based primordial crystals."

In fact, Qiao Xiu wanted to say that the unit of Zhao was very much, but after thinking about it, he lowered the requirements, and Qiao Xiu remembered that the inscription that could be engraved on the best quality primordial crystal in the third prince's hand was about twenty or thirty thousand.

"That's too much to ask."

The gray-robed mage pushed his glasses, if it is impossible to say that the level of 100 million is impossible, the primordial spar that can be engraved with about 100,000 inscriptions can basically become the foundation of a large teleportation array of a large country, and the value is of course self-evident.

"Is this what you want to patent for?"

"No, I'm trying to sign up for another."

The other party didn't seem to want to continue talking about this topic, and Qiao Xiu didn't deliberately continue, after all, the relationship between Qiao Xiu and this gray-robed mage was just a stranger who didn't know each other, and Qiao Xiu mentioned this matter only on a whim.

When Qiao Xiu had registered the patent for the camera and left the room, the gray-robed mage knocked on the table and pondered for a moment, and finally picked up the quill and found a new piece of letterhead.

To: All members of the Owl Pen Ppals Club

"On How to Get a Primordial Crystal of Near-Infinite Quality"

——— the Gray Cloak Lursk himself.

When he had finished writing, he rolled up the letter and walked to the window.

He knew how he had obtained the 'infinite' quality protozoar, and the letter was just to ask the other founders of the pen pal club.

A pitch-black owl flailed its wings to the window, grabbed the letter with its talons, and flew towards one of Nolan's tallest buildings, the Tower of the Sages.
