Chapter 232: The Man Who Changed the World
Xu Shang is a well-known wizard in history, not only has a super talent for magic, but is also a rare female arcane mage, and later became one of the important members of the empire.
In the Magnas, gender was an innate factor in determining the inclination of wizards, even in the royal family.
The magic of witches tends to be active and restless, so witches tend to become elemental mages, illusionists and other genres, so the six clans of the empire are ruled by six eldest princesses.
Wizards, on the other hand, tend to be stable and orderly, which gives them an advantage in the genres of arcane, necromancy, summoning, etc., and is more suitable for political positions.
This is also evident from the fact that the majority of the members of the Imperial Diet are men.
Xu Shang is a special case.
In appearance, she is no different from the ordinary little girl next door, and even more eccentric, but her sensitivity and rationality to witchcraft surpass that of most male witches.
In normal history, after the rise of the empire, Xu Shang would join the empire as a wizard and become a mage clerk.
And then follow that established path, step by step, to the high positions of members of parliament and become a real big man.
However, in this life, Xu Jia does not want her to continue on this path, because Jinta does not need a councillor decades later, and Xu Jia does not need her governing philosophy.
Xu Jia hopes that she will fully use her talent for witchcraft and become a real technocratic official, not a pure politician.
"Marfa's ...... Voters?" Xu Shang, who was still an apprentice-level wizard at this time, looked at the "King of Marfa" cane in front of him in a daze.
Although it is only a defective product, the amazing power contained in it still continues to attract Xu Shang, a young wizard.
The "King of Marfa" is not so much a relic of the previous kings as a condensation of the magic of the Magfa of the past dynasties, so the pure magic driven from it can play a role in strengthening the Maga.
Xu Jia didn't speak again, just gently pushed the cane forward and placed it in front of Xu Shang.
The girl couldn't help but stretch out her hand and slowly hold it in the center of the handle of the cane, and then felt a wave of power quickly surging into her body.
The next moment, she fainted without pause.
......
When Xu Sheng woke up, she found that there seemed to be a faint voice around her, and there was a smell of disinfectant in the air.
The ceiling was white, and I was lying on a white bed...... Is it a hospital? I seem to be overwhelmed by the intense magic while absorbing the magic......
Xu Sheng gradually recalled the previous events in his mind, but there was a muttering sound in his ears.
"The teacher came back with a woman...... Could it be my wife?"
"The breasts are not big, the butts are not big, it's different from what we think, definitely not!"
"Again, she looks younger than me. ”
"That's not necessarily, what if your teacher likes Lori?"
"Is there a Lori cuter than me?"
“......”
"You two!" Luo Xiaoan interrupted the conversation between the two with a black line on his face, "Could you please take a look at the patient?"
Ah Yue and Ellie turned their heads at this time, and sure enough, they saw Xu Sheng with her eyes open, looking at the three people in front of her curiously.
In fact, in terms of age, not counting Ellie, who is a dragonborn, Xu Shang should be the oldest of the few.
said that she was a girl, but she was an adult, and Ah Yue and Luo Xiao'an, two little children, it stands to reason that they still have to go to middle school.
"Are you Her Royal Highness Ah Yue?" Xu Shang had obviously seen Ah Yue's photo and recognized her at a glance.
"Just call me Ah Yue!" Ah Yue patted her chest hard, looking like a big sister in Causeway Bay, "The teacher said that you will be the chief technology officer of Jinta in the future, so you can mess with me in the future!"
These words finally made Xu Shang, who had always been indifferent, stunned in place - when did I say that I was going to be a technical officer?!
......
People can change.
Xu Jia has always believed that except for the saying that the Tao of martial arts has a nature, the future path of others is not static, and they can completely embark on a different path from their previous lives.
It's as if Liu Huatang should have established a mercenary group on his own and become a well-known mercenary on the Orange Internet, but now he is the head of the department in the Golden Tower.
So Xu Shang, who was supposed to be in charge of the government in his previous life, was transformed into a chief technology officer by Xu Jia in this life, which doesn't seem to be an unacceptable thing.
Because Xu Shang fully meets the prerequisites for becoming a technical officer - a talent for witchcraft and exceptional personal ability.
So after waking up, Xu Shang was stuffed directly into the research institute for no reason, and was personally guided by Brand.
For many wizards who are interested in studying technology, this is a rare honor, but Xu Sheng only feels inexplicable, she doesn't understand these techniques at all!
Teacher Brand is very kind, not impatient at all because of her poor foundation, so patient that Xu Sheng herself is a little embarrassed, but she still feels very awkward.
So on the first weekend of entering the graduate school, she met Xu Jia for the second time, the guy who knocked her out and carried her back when they first met.
"Mr. Xu, I think this place ...... the Institute."
"What is your dream?" Before Xu Sheng could finish speaking, Xu Jia had already interrupted her.
Probably surprised by this philosophical question, Xu Sheng was a little speechless for a while, so Xu Jia continued: "You want to become a great wizard?"
"Of course!" Xu Sheng nodded vigorously, this question she could answer.
"Why do you want to be a great wizard? Don't tell me anything strong, no matter how big a wizard is, he is no match for a martial artist. ”
Xu Jia's words were very hurtful, almost making Xu Sheng wonder if this was the teacher of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in front of him, but his words were the truth.
So Xu Shang was silent for a while, and then said, "I think magic is what can really change the world." Martial arts determine how strong the strong are, and magic determines how strong the civilization is. ”
Xu Jia couldn't help but smile on his face, this theory is not uncommon, in fact, most of the empire has similar ideas, but it is not as clear as Xu Shang.
However, Xu Shang did not grow up in the empire, but after awakening and realizing magic, he embarked on such a path on his own, which is indeed rare.
"You're right. Xu Jia nodded, "This world will eventually change because of magic, and the research institute is the one who directly changes the world." ”
Xu Shang was slightly stunned, and somewhat understood what Xu Jia meant, but she still said: "But if the technology can't get political support, no matter how good the research is, it can only be locked up in the data room." ”
This is Xu Shang's heart, she grew up in Xu's family, she knows very well that technicians are just technicians after all, and it is always a group of politicians who make decisions.
However, Xu Jia shook his head and said: "Technology cannot be supported by politics, and that is because the people who master technology do not understand politics." So they're just technicians, not technocrats. ”
"Now, you have the opportunity to become the number one technologist of the future empire. ”
