Repairing the magic array, for Beta, is just a very simple matter. But for the Aristotle, it was quite a troublesome thing. They have lost the skill of building the magic array, they only know how to use it, not how to repair it.
In case the magic array is damaged again in the future, do you have to go to ask the Beta Pope again?
With this in mind, before Sophia returned to Winterwind City, Levine had a deep talk with her.
"Sophia, I can see that you and the Pope are indeed quite familiar. So I have something I want to ask for on my behalf. ”
Sophia's expression seemed to be smiling: "Is it a matter of descendants again?" ”
Speaking of which, Levin's sullenness returned. But when he saw the expression on Sophia's face, and then thought about how she had become stronger inexplicably yesterday, he had to endure his sulking: "It's about summoning a magic array." We can't just ask Pope Beta to help fix it every time the magic circle breaks. So I wondered, can you let the Pope teach us how to maintain the magic array and the techniques of building the magic array? The clan is willing to pay a sufficient price. ”
Logically speaking, Levin's request is quite reasonable, but here's the problem. The technology of the magic array is not independent. It's not that you can learn it by teaching people the array diagram for summoning magic arrays. There are several basic disciplines that are required for any magic array.
Mana control, inscriptions, the relationship between magic modeling and formations, magic materials, and even advanced mathematics, etc.
To learn a magic array, you must start with the most basic inscriptions, which is not a simple matter.
In the game, the high-level mage players are almost all highly educated, and almost all of them are science students. Even Beta herself is a graduate student. They have a strong ability to learn on their own, and there is also a forum community that can communicate without barriers, where tens of thousands of mage players communicate with each other, which has given birth to more than a dozen quite versatile and powerful spellcasters like Roland, Beta, etc.
From elementary school to graduate school, Beta studied systematically for at least twenty years. This is an assembly-line education method, and on the earth, the so-called happy education experts criticize it as incomplete, saying that the people cultivated by this test-oriented education system are not creative.
But it's really just a joke, creativity is such a thing, if you don't have a solid foundation, it's just a fantasy in the air. Moreover, only this assembly-line talent training system can be relatively fair in the selection of millions of students in the college entrance examination every year.
Otherwise, the children of poor families will never receive a good education.
Because the so-called happy education, in fact, is extracurricular training, which is very expensive. Piano lessons start at 100 yuan an hour, dance lessons, painting lessons, writing lessons, and more. Since the experts started boasting about happy education, teachers don't take it so seriously in the classroom anymore, preferring to teach in extracurricular practice classes for a fee.
Now the middle class in big cities, a month's salary is simply not enough for children's extracurricular training.
Not to mention the children of the countryside.
Even in a place like the earth, where education is important, knowledge is about to become a luxury, and the monopoly of knowledge in this magical world of the Dark Ages is almost outrageous.
Even most nobles received nothing more than etiquette and writing, plus some skills passed down from their ancestors. In essence, the average level of education of most aristocrats is probably not as good as that of junior high school students on earth.
Because the difficulty of acquiring knowledge is too high, the world's self-learning ability is generally low. Knowledge is a rather troublesome, rather esoteric thing for most people. Many college students on the earth can master things after studying for three or five years, and in this world, even if they are studied by high-quality noble descendants, most of them will take more than ten years, and it will take more than twenty years to learn.
Therefore, blood, something rooted in instinct, will be favored by all nobles.
You don't need to study, as long as you are old, you can stimulate all kinds of abilities, how good.
Hearing Levin's request, Sophia smiled: "Do you know the magic array science, why do so few people understand it?" ”
"Lost?" Levine raised an eyebrow.
"It's too hard." Sophia chuckled.
The reason why she said this was actually because Beta had taught Fence Pull's magic array for a while at Kyle's request. As a result, after studying for three months, he voluntarily gave up.
Again, for these otherworldly people, the magic array is too difficult.
Mingwen Fenra could barely understand it, and when Beta began to teach about multivariate equations, mathematical modeling, and so on, Fenra felt like she was listening to a book from heaven.
And then I gave up.
But the problem is that in order to learn the magic array well, this knowledge is necessary.
Moreover, high-level magic also needs to be analyzed by mathematical modeling. If you learn advanced magic in the traditional way, it takes a long time, quite a long time.
"If you want to learn the most basic magic array, it may take several years." Sophia laughed, "My daughter was also guided by Pope Beta, but she quickly gave up. ”
"Fence may not have the intention of studying."
Levin laughed dryly, his meaning was obvious, it was nothing more than that Fence Fence might be stupid, and the people on the master's side were different.
"My daughter is almost a master mage. Do you want anyone in your clan to learn about the magic circle, John? Sophia smiled: "Or Kerrigan?" ”
"I'm not afraid, even if it takes decades, I'm willing to learn."
The bookshelf slowly turned, and a young man stepped out from behind. He looked at Sophia and said with an unyielding momentum: "Aunt Sophia, I am confident that even if it takes more time, I will learn the knowledge of summoning the magic array. ”
Sophia smiled, her face was very mocking: "Decades...... Are you willing to spend decades learning, but is Pope Beta willing to spend decades teaching you? ”
Just say, 'Who do you think you are?' 'That's it.
No mother wants her daughter to be secretly belittled and scolded for being stupid, and Levin's words just now have actually made Sophia quite unhappy in her heart. Now she is clearly going back to her words, which in itself means to be angry with her daughter.
The young man was a little overwhelmed.
Levine said, "We can pay enough. The question is, Sophia, are you willing to help your loved ones. ”
Have you started a family kidnapping? Sophia had a slightly cold smile on her face, which was beautiful and uncomfortable. She got up from her chair: "Patriarch, there is a saying that is hard to hear, but I still have to say it. What kind of price can you Aristotle give? ”
You guys!
When Levin heard this, he was a little unhappy in his heart, but now that he had a request, he could only pretend not to hear: "As long as you can convince His Majesty the Pope to teach us the knowledge of the magic array, we are willing to pay any price." ”
Sophia shook her head very dryly: "You can't give him what he wants." Wealth? He is the Pope of the Cult of Fortune. Woman? The most beautiful woman beside him looked exactly like the goddess Waukin. Power...... He is the Pope, a Pope with a Miracle Sect, the Aristotle, what power can he give him? ”
Levin said, "So, Sophia, we need your help. Your friendship with His Majesty Beta, if we pay enough price, I think we can convince him. ”
"Yes, if I sincerely ask him, plus the benefits you have given, I can speak to His Majesty the Pope."
Both men had a smile on their faces.
But Sophia changed her words: "But, why should I destroy my friendship with Pope Beta? ”
A sharp rhetorical question directly made Levin speechless.
"You are our relative, Aristotle......"
Sophia shook her head as she walked to the door: "I'm sorry, I'm the wife of the city lord of Winter Wind City now, and I am the wife of the head of the Longman family. Pope Beta is my best friend, and I can't let my friends be disappointed in me because of my own personal affairs. Asking Pope Beta to help repair the magic array is already within my power and the greatest help to the family. ”
With that, Sophia left.
Levine slammed the table. The young man next to him sighed and said, "Uncle, except for the Beta Pope, no one else understands the magic array?" ”
"It is said that there is such a talent on Frans's side, but I don't dare to guarantee whether it can repair the summoning magic array. Moreover, it is said that he only knows five or six magic arrays. ”
The young man sighed, saluted, and left. Levine leaned back in his chair and looked up at the roof, looking extremely unhappy.
Beta teleported to the outskirts of the Sanctuary, tidied up the night sky a bit, dyed her hair brown, and headed out of the city.
From afar, you can see that above the very center of the Sanctuary, there is a large golden ball of light, its brightness is comparable to that of the sun, but the light produced does not have a real temperature.
The Sanctuary is also known as the City That Never Sleeps, and that's why.
This thing is the legendary Heart of Light, and in the game, the Goddess of Light gave it to her cousin Shuke, and then turned into a golden sun pendant with a law-level passive ability.
After looking at the Heart of Light for a while, Beta walked to the city gate.
As the sacred domain of the Cult of Light, the Sanctuary naturally has walls. The walls here are not too tall, but there are teams of elite holy guards patrolling them, and there are paladins stationed in the city, so to speak, the most defended city in the world is none other than the Sanctuary.
Beta walked to the city gate and lined up...... The Sanctuary is the only city that dares to let magicians line up to enter the city.
They have the confidence to do that.
After queuing for a long time, it was finally Beta's turn, and the two Holy Guards in charge of the inspection looked at Beta's dress with disgust.
"Magician...... What are you doing here? ”
