Chapter 440 - Decimal Computer?
What is the status of a magician equivalent to in the current Plandal?
This is a very simple and complex question.
A beginner magic apprentice can become a guest of a noble family, can mix in any mercenary group to the status equivalent to the deputy head level, eat and drink well and don't need to work in peacetime, just need to rub some water at critical moments, and then detect the opponent's intelligence through detection before the battle, and provide shimmering magic to illuminate in dim places, which is basically all his tasks.
Those people care more about the symbolism of a magic apprentice than the practical meaning - our mercenary group can bring in a magic apprentice, you don't, so we are stronger, and employers are more willing to come to us!
Not only that, but being able to successfully hire a magic apprentice means that it is possible to connect with a real magician, which is even more important.
And what about a real magician?
He could easily become the guest of honor sought after by the great nobles, and just by virtue of the occult knowledge he had in his mind, he could be in any country and be respected by anyone.
And once they have mastered the truly lethal spells, they can also play a huge role in the adventure, whether as a strategic control specialist or as a humanoid turret.
Therefore, almost every force is eager to be able to train a large number of mages, but now almost all mages are monopolized by the Silver City, and only a small number of wild mages are outside.
It is worth mentioning that before Jean established the Star and Moon Tower Secret Law Association, magicians were not so rare, and the status of magicians was not so high at that time.
It is precisely because Jean gathered all the mages in the Silver City that it indirectly raised the value of the mages.
So now the question arises, what does the weapon in Donn's hands mean?
Even a person who doesn't understand magic can quickly and instantly spell in his hand, this incomparably convenient and powerful weapon can already destroy the status of all low-level mages in society, and it can also completely reverse the current pattern of war, a single low-level spell is not strong, but it can't stand up to a huge number!
One fireball can't do it, but what about two? Two shots won't work, what about five?
It doesn't make sense to any iron triangle tactics, there are no five fireballs in this world that can't be handled!
If this weapon were known to the magicians of the Silver City, would they sit idly by and ignore this weapon that undermined their interests?
"Your Lord!"
Fiona took a deep breath of cold air: "Do you really plan to produce this weapon!?" ”
In her eyes, excitement and fear were mixed, she knew what this weapon meant to Ellington, she knew what it meant to the wizard community, and she knew what this weapon meant to the world!
If this weapon is leaked out, the mage's supremacy will no longer be glorious, and mortals will be able to use mysterious and powerful magic at will, and it will only bring a killing that will turn everything upside down!
"I know what you're worried about."
Tang En shook his head and said: "But this kind of thing is inevitable, the pace of development will not stop, we can only face the trouble, solve the trouble, and not escape before the trouble appears." ”
Don's mood is also complicated, a powerful weapon that can be mastered at will and can be popularized in large quantities appears in this world, is the meaning good or bad? He didn't know.
But isn't that exactly what he came into this world to do? Let weak mortals also have powerful weapons in their hands, and when facing the chaos army, they can fight to the death, even before they die, they can bite each other fiercely.
What is he worried about?
What he was worried about was whether mortals would destroy themselves before Chaos invaded if he mastered this weapon.
"But I'm afraid it's going to be difficult for the magic pistol to be mass-produced for the time being."
Don took out a magic chip and handed it to Fiona: "This magic chip is the core of the magic pistol, even if it is me, I can't produce it in large quantities now." ”
Fiona was amazed when she saw the dense magic channels on the small chip: "Compressing such a huge magic array to such a small size, and still maintaining the stability of the magic channel, your magic array cultivation is already unparalleled!" ”
"Well, there are not many people who have studied this."
Don shrugged, compared to the CPUs on the earth that often integrate tens of billions of transistors, this magic array miniature technology can only be said to be drizzle.
But......
Tang En suddenly groped his chin, if he could find a way to come up with a modified version of the light sculpture technology, could he also miniaturize the magic array? Replace the transistor switch with the state of the magic circle to express 0 and 1......
No, no, if it's a magic array, you can easily achieve ten different states, that is, if you really have enough technical support, theoretically you can use the magic array light sculpture technology to realize the decimal computer!
However, it is so simple to say that it is similar to photoengraving technology, and it may be difficult to find the right substrate and processing method, after all, silicon wafers cannot be used here, and Brandal's industrial base is very poor, and the magic civilization is not developed enough, not even a one-legged cripple, it is simply a legless cripple.
And the decimal computer...... Is it necessary?
Pointless.
Don shook his head, putting aside the whimsical brainstorm.
"Elia!?"
At this moment, Fiona's exclamation brought Don back to his senses, and when he looked at it, Don was stunned.
The magic chip was in Illya's left hand, and in the air above her right hand, a miniature magic array replica appeared in the air, and the whole body was completely condensed by arcane power, although it did not carry the substrate, but each magic channel was extremely clear - the magic array that he had been meditating for a few days had completely copied after Illya just touched it......
Don felt his face swelled again by Elijah's inadvertently.
"Big brother, this is so interesting!"
Illya said happily: "I feel that the magic channel in here is very smooth, and after injecting magic power, it directly forms an ice armor, which is really convenient." ”
"It's smooth because the carrier material used is Mithril."
Don squeezed out a very reluctant smile, and he wanted to cry in his heart.
I'm the savior, right? What kind of fun are you a goddess reincarnating, did you come to slap me in the face?
"Elijah was able to parse the miniature magic array you drew so easily......"
The muscles on Fiona's face twitched a little, and she was once again deeply aware of how terrifying Eliya's magical talent was, but she couldn't envy it at all now.
Previously, when they were in Sharhera, Lola used a divine descent, called Sister Illya, which shocked everyone, but then their conversation was a divine word that no one could understand.
Even so, Fiona and the others can roughly guess Illya's identity.
The reincarnation of a deity.
Compare your magical talent with gods? Fiona admits that she is not that fond of masochism.
She is actually now more advantageous than the vast majority of people who cultivate magic, after all, at the beginning, Tang En gave her Nora's blessing crystal, and in the process of continuing to take effect, her physique and mental strength have made great progress, otherwise it would not have been possible to quickly advance from a layman who was ignorant of magic to the ninth order of the black iron level in just half a year.
After returning from the underworld, she faintly showed signs of breaking through to the silver level.
Even if this kind of cultivation speed is placed in the Silver City, it can be called a miracle genius.
It's just that there are too many geniuses around Fiona, the unfathomable lord of magic cultivation, the reincarnation of Illya, the goddess of perverted magical talent, Elsa, who is petite and cute but invincible and has never had an opponent, and the elemental lord Decarios from the fire elemental world......
What about the people who went out with Don to meet? The legendary hero Eberon, the legendary elven queen Isari, the legendary hero Egwin, and the legendary dark elf queen Lola, encountered enemies that were either legendary or demigods......
In this environment, what kind of genius will not be hit? Fiona didn't collapse completely, and it was already good......
Staring at the magic array in Elijah's hand, he suddenly had an idea.
If Illya can copy the magic circle so easily, is it feasible to transfer the magic circle to the magic metal through this means of copying the magic circle? If it is feasible, as long as we find a way to restore the means of copying the magic array through technical methods, wouldn't it be possible to achieve mass production?
"Your Excellency?"
Don came back to his senses: "What's the matter?" ”
Fiona pointed at Illya, "Magic Chip." ”
Illya was tiptoeing to Don with the chip in her hand.
Don smiled and took the chip, rubbing Illya's head, making her close her eyes and hum comfortably.
Tang En rubbed Illya, and suddenly remembered the matter: "By the way, you said that you have something to report to me?" What's the matter? ”
Fiona was stunned, came back to her senses, hurriedly took out her notebook and said, "You almost forgot about it when you interrupted...... I've just received a report from Elsa that the guards have encountered a large number of ragged refugees in the north on the way to the snow, and they should have entered the Ellington range by this time, so I would like to ask what you mean. ”
"Refugees?"
Don's eyes lit up: "Of course it's accepted!" We're short of people right now! ”
"But...... Aren't you afraid that there are people among them who have ulterior motives? ”
"What are you afraid of, Van Cleef will pull them out, and before that, take them all in...... By the way, where do they come from? ”
"Casparmyburg."
Fiona paused for a moment and added, "It's also hit by snow and beast tides. (To be continued.) )
