Chapter 1313: The supremacy of non-individual strength, the protector of the law
In a normal civilization, the force of an individual must not become the main source of an individual's identity and status, because it is not beneficial to civilization and order.
It's like on the earth, some people are born with amazing strength, and some people are born weak and can't help the wind, should the strong have the privilege of being superior to others?
The strong naturally have a way to realize their power in an orderly manner, rather than grabbing it by themselves alone.
In other words, Chado is not opposed to better treatment for the powerful, but only if he can contribute to civilization, and the most basic of this is not to oppose order.
If the strong man is outside the order, then no matter how strong he is, Xia Duo will regard him as an enemy.
Of course, the order here does not refer specifically to the order dominated by Chado himself, but to the order in a broad sense.
In layman's terms, it means that he can communicate, accept compromises, know how to make trade-offs, and is a more rational person with predictable behavior, whether good or evil.
And not a madman who acts unscrupulously and does what he wants.
……
After talking to Jose about the new textbook and some issues with the promotion evaluation mechanism, the time was almost noon, and Xia Duo finally ordered:
"I'll leave it to you about the new textbook, and in addition, please let out the news about the promotion assessment as soon as possible, and it will be officially implemented after the Midsummer Festival."
"Yes, sir." José put away the references on the table and agreed.
But at the same time, he also raised his own concerns, "If the news of promotion assessment is released now, I am worried that some apprentices will deliberately upgrade in advance regardless of the current learning progress, which may cause a lot of chaos." ”
Xia Duo also expected the situation mentioned by Jose, but "punishing without teaching" is not his style, and there must be a certain buffer before any policy is implemented.
Otherwise, the order will be changed overnight, and the order will be completely reduced to child's play.
"Master Jose doesn't have to worry about this, the Tower of Time is not even unable to afford this expense, it's just that some people have obtained the authority and treatment that don't belong to him in advance now, and they will definitely pay a certain price in the future."
"My lord, the price you said is—" Jose was startled and hurriedly asked.
"Don't worry about what I'm going to do to them, the price I'm talking about comes entirely from themselves, you said that some people have now suddenly become official mages, and enjoy the authority and treatment of official mages, can they calm down and complete their apprenticeship in the future? In the future, formal mages will also have to participate in the promotion assessment, and if the foundation is lacking, they will inevitably spend more time than others to make up for it, isn't this the price of taking shortcuts? ”
"I see."
Knowing that Xia Duo would not deliberately target those people, José also let go of his worries, and sometimes took shortcuts, and he really should pay the corresponding price.
However, he still decided to put more emphasis on the importance of basic coursework while letting out the news, even if it is not for promotion, these can become valuable assets for their lifetime earnings.
……
After leaving the academic office, Xia Duo called Niya to go to Linshui Village for lunch, and during the meal, he told Niya about the reform of the promotion system.
Niya wasn't the slightest bit surprised by this, "That's what the Tower of Time used to do, but there wasn't a clear criteria for promotion, it was entirely up to my father to decide. However, there seems to be some problems with the promotion assessment you mentioned! ”
"What's the problem?"
"If you can be promoted based on the assessment alone, and the content of the assessment is all magic-related content that everyone can learn, then wouldn't it be possible for someone to rise to the top quickly as long as they are smart enough?"
夏多惊讶于妮雅这么快就发现了其中的问题,实际上他现在搞的这套晋升机制,本质上还是【投影位面·帝国遗民】学历资格以及相应待遇的提升。
This is accompanied by the promotion of specific positions.
It's just that the current Tower of Time, there is no need to do so many complicated things at once, and there are not too many positions for relevant personnel to promote, so I didn't do it, and I will definitely do it in the future.
……
Xia Duo briefly explained the difference between academic qualifications and positions, and Niya immediately reacted that this is the promotion mechanism of the academic system, which is just suitable for the current academy transformation of the Tower of Time.
In fact, in the wizarding world, because knowledge can be easily transformed into force, education-force-position-treatment can basically be equated.
What Xia Duo wants is to cut off the direct relationship between "force" and "position", and transform it into a healthy development model from "education" to "position", or from "ability" to "position".
This may seem like a circle, but in fact it lays the foundation of civilization and allows everything to develop in an orderly manner, instead of falling into a deformed state of individual force supremacy.
In the future, there may be archons who specialize in governance but are not well-versed in the field of magic, who can directly direct the Grand Arcanist to initiate a battle, or specialize in a research project.
While this is a small possibility, it is a real possibility.
For example, Leiden, although he has mastered the holy power and his combat power is significantly higher than that of ordinary people, he still has great limitations compared to real spellcasters.
Now there are more than 250 commissioned apprentices in the Tower of Time in the Great Xia Territory, except for some who are expected to continue their studies in the field of magic will stay in the Tower of Time to continue their studies, and the remaining part will be managed by Leiden when they return after completing their studies?
In Xia Duo's plan, magic is science, and everyone has the opportunity to receive a magical education, but in reality, not everyone is suitable to go deeper on this path.
Just like Xia Duo's hometown, everyone can go to school, but not everyone will become a scientific researcher, and more will be other professions.
The same is true in the wizarding world, where there are only a few people who specialize in magic in the future, and most of them are engaged in magic-related professions, but they have long since left the field of research.
Interrupting the direct correlation between "force" and "position", "treatment" or "status" and "status" actually allows spellcasters who are not magical research professions to exist and continue to develop.
Of course, because the instability of individual force is too high, Xia Duo also needs a "gun" that can effectively maintain this order.
However, at this stage, he can dominate the order of all this with his personal force and prestige.
In the future, with the development of the Tower of Time and the confluence of the Great Xia Domain and the Saville Domain, the order will be condensed, and it will not be difficult to select qualified "Dharma Protectors" from the new system.
Chado has full confidence in this.
……
After lunch, Shado was about to take a look around the realm when he received an unexpected message, which caused him to change his afternoon schedule and return to the Tower of Time with Nia.
