Chapter 51: Treatise on Spells
"New Ideas for the Treatment of Complex Disability - A Preliminary Study on Alternative Methods for Advanced Rehabilitation Surgery......"? , This is a spell research paper?!" Old Kidd took the thing handed over by Luo Sheng a little strangely, and after glancing at the title, the whole person was shocked, and when he looked at Luo Sheng again, his eyes were full of horror.

"Well, I happened to be free in the past two days, so I summarized the recent treatment ideas and wrote this paper. It is estimated that if it is submitted to "Exploration", it should be able to be published. Luo Sheng ignored the shock in Old Kidd's eyes and responded indifferently.
"Whew!" staring at Luo Sheng for a long time, Old Kidd finally let out a sigh of relief, his mood slowly calmed down, looked at Luo Sheng with a calm face, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I don't ask you how you know about the Exploration monthly magazine and the spell paper." There are too many secrets in your kid, and if you keep asking, I'm afraid my heart won't be able to stand it. ”
Luo Sheng didn't answer, just looked at Old Kidd quietly, smiled without saying a word, and looked calm and calm.
In fact, Luo Sheng didn't think about how to explain that he would know about the internal publication of the Nine Rings White Tower, "Exploration", and the form of spell papers that only circulated inside the Nine Rings White Tower. Can't tell old Kidd and Fili that they had spent some time in the White Tower of the Nine Rings in their previous lives, were familiar with all kinds of situations on the Island of Truth, published top papers in the two monthly magazines "Inheritance" and "Exploration", and served as a visiting professor at the Truth Academy while working for several legendary mages?
"This paper is about your new treatment called 'surgery,' right? If so, it could have been chosen by Exploration. After calming down, Old Kidd shifted his attention to the paper in his hand, and after reading it carefully, he said with an admiring expression.
As the most powerful mage force in the Northlands and a remnant of the Arcane Empire, the Nine Rings White Tower has always attached great importance to the research and promotion of spells, so on the headquarters of the Island of Truth, there are several spell journals dedicated to publishing various spell research papers. The casters of the Nine Rings White Tower can submit their novel ideas or special research results to these journals in the form of spell research papers. Once selected, contributors will receive an amazing reward, and may even be directly favored by the top, completely changing their fate.
Among the many spell publications, the most authoritative, the most valued by the high-level of the Nine Rings White Tower, and the most rewarded, are the two books "Inheritance" and "Exploration". Among them, "Inheritance" mainly publishes the research and improvement of ancient magical knowledge, while "Exploration" mainly publishes the novelty ideas and innovative achievements of spellcasters.
The surgical treatment that Rason 'invented' was, in the eyes of others, undoubtedly a remarkable innovation. And it's not just an empty theory, in fact, Rason has proven the effectiveness of his treatment through the many disabled veterans in Cook Castle. So even if he doesn't have the ability to write a paper that can be published, Old Kidd can still roughly feel the value of this paper.
"Uncle Kidd, you think so too, then I'm relieved. Luo Sheng smiled and said: "Uncle Kidd, you can ask Brother Newman to help me find faults, standardize the format, sign my name and then vote out, this can be regarded as our joint work." ”
Luo Sheng said very easily, but when he heard the words in Old Kidd's ears, it was like thunder, and the whole person trembled with excitement. After a long time, old Kidd took a deep breath and said very solemnly, "You boy, I don't even know what to say." Whether it succeeds or not, our father and son have remembered your affection!"
In the Nine Rings White Pagoda system, it is not only a great honor to be able to publish papers in the top journals, but also a real huge benefit. Needless to say, other meritorious rewards and the like, the mere fact that the author can obtain the qualification to enter the Island of Truth for further study is enough to make all the spellcasters under the Nine-Ring White Pagoda crazy.
You know, the elder Kidd has worked hard for half his life, and he has never really set foot on the Island of Truth. And at the cost of serving the Arcane Glorious Chamber of Commerce for half his life, he just allowed his son Newman to enter the Arcane Academy outside the White Tower of the Nine Rings to study. As for boarding the Island of Truth and studying at the Academy of Truth, the most famous mage training holy land in the entire Imir continent, Old Kidd couldn't even think of it.
But this kind of thing that I didn't dare to think of was turned around because of Luo Sheng's words just now. If Luo Sheng's paper can really be published in the monthly magazine "Exploration", then Newman, as the second author, although the glory and reward will be less, but the opportunity to enter the Truth Academy is real. In this way, Newman's life could change completely. With such great kindness, it's no wonder that old Kidd behaved so solemnly.
"Uncle Kidd, you're serious, we're helping each other. Without Brother Newman, even if I wanted to publish this paper, there would be no way!" Luo Sheng said politely.
Giving the paper to Kidd Sr., and promising Newman to sign the paper, on the one hand, is to make the father and son more interested in the paper, and help him publish the paper as soon as possible, so as to get the required reward. On the other hand, he really wanted to help Newman to repay the old Kidd for his help in his previous life.
Newman was never able to cross the threshold of the Silver Order in his previous life due to his lack of talent and potential, and finally after graduating from the Academy of Alpha, he was sent back to Cook Territory to run the stronghold of the Archam Glory with Old Kidd. Eventually, when the town of Cook was destroyed, father and son died fighting together to protect the townspeople.
When Luo Sheng got the news in his previous life, it was too late, and he lost the opportunity to repay old Kidd. With conditions in this life, Luo Sheng naturally wants to repay Old Kidd. And the best way to repay an old father is to help his children fly higher. And letting Newman sign the paper is undoubtedly a chance for Newman to change his fate, and it is also the best reward for old Kidd.
"I'm going to be foolish if I believe that. But don't worry, Luo Sheng, I will pass the paper to Newman as soon as possible and ask him to submit it. And whether this matter is successful or not, I will get the elemental core you need as soon as possible, and try not to delay your promotion ceremony. Old Kidd scolded with a smile and solemnly promised.
Although he was not sure that Luo Sheng's paper could be published in "Exploration", the elder Kidd also showed great sincerity in matters related to his son's future and fate. Buying the Elemental Core in advance will cost Old Kidd himself the merits and favors of the arcane brilliance, and if the submission fails, Old Kidd will also bear a great loss.
However, for the sake of his child Newman, and in order to be able to befriend Luo Sheng, a rising star, old Kidd still decided to take a gamble. After all, with Newman's qualifications and potential, it is difficult to cross the silver level without special opportunities. In the mage organization, if you don't advance to silver, you can't become a middle-level manager, and you can only engage in grassroots work like yourself. In order for his son to escape such a fate, the elder Kidd must seize this opportunity.
And old Kidd thinks from the perspective of a businessman, even if this submission fails, with the amazing potential shown by Luo Sheng, the future development will definitely not be too low. At the cost of a silver-level elemental core, it is not too much of a loss to exchange for the favor of a future powerhouse. Even if the elder Kidd himself is old, he may not be able to wait for Luo Sheng to really grow up, but as long as Luo Sheng remembers this favor and can help Newman in the future, this effort will be worth it.
"Thank you, Uncle Kidd. Luo Sheng could guess a little about Old Kidd's thoughts, but he didn't mind, and still smiled and thanked him. After all, no matter how much old Kidd calculates and weighs, what he really does, or helping himself, the two sides are mutually beneficial, so that the cooperation will last for a long time.
As for the old Kidd worried about the failure of the paper submission, Luo Sheng was not worried. In fact, Luo Sheng's choice to take out this paper as a stepping stone was carefully considered and weighed repeatedly. The elder Kidd thought that the focus of this paper was on the front, the new idea of musculoskeletal disability treatment, so as to judge the value of the paper. But Luo Sheng's real killer feature is the subtitle of the paper - an alternative to advanced restoration.
As one of the few organizations in the entire Imir Continent that can compete with the Holy See of Light, the White Pagoda of the Nine Rings has always attached great importance to ways to be able to resist and weaken the influence of the Holy See of Light. In fact, in the hearts of most of the legendary mages on the top floor of the Nine-Ring White Tower, the Holy See of Light, which once led to the collapse of the Arcane Empire, is the greatest enemy of the Nine-Ring White Tower. Anything that can cause a blow to the Bright Sect, they will do it as much as possible, which is also the main reason why Luo Sheng was able to cooperate with the Nine Rings White Pagoda in his previous life.
It was precisely because he knew this mentality of the top management of the White Tower of the Nine Rings that Luo Sheng was sure that his thesis would be adopted. The Advanced Restoration Technique has always been an important means for the Bright Sect to influence the middle and upper echelons. For those who have money and power, even if they can get high-level recovery treatment when they are injured in a special injury, they will generally not offend the Holy See of Light, and even take the initiative to move closer to the Holy See of Light in order to get better treatment, which gives the Holy See of Light a lot of room to expand its influence.
Although mages also have various means of treating complex injuries, some of them are too expensive and expensive to cast, and some are not as effective as the magic of the Holy See of Light in terms of healing effect, so they have been weak in this regard. Because of this, even in the Northland Commercial Alliance under the control of the White Tower of the Nine Rings, except for the core Truth Island, the other subordinate principalities and city-states still have the power of the Holy See of Light, which cannot be completely eliminated.
The appearance of Luo Sheng's paper, although it cannot completely replace the role of high-level restoration, can greatly reduce the dependence of others on high-level restoration. This is tantamount to weakening the influence of the Holy See of Light on the foundation, so it is impossible for the high-level leaders of the Nine Rings White Pagoda not to pay attention to it and not promote it.
"Fili, let's go. After greeting Fili, Rason said hello to Old Kidd and turned to walk out the door.
