Arcane Lord

At this time, although it was already late at night, after Sha Duo's summons passed, Brundes quickly came back, but the result was somewhat beyond Sha Duo's expectations——

"Currently, Gustav Tower is responsible for all sales of spiritual matter in the Seven Towers. Of course, if Lord Shado needs it, I can purchase it for you, but for the price of 50,000 gold coins, even Lord Horn can't Ways to reduce.”

Fifty thousand a piece, which means that to build a mage tower with a tower spirit, 150,000 will be deducted from the fixed cost. However, Xia Duo's plan is not yet sure how many "tool spirits" are needed.

According to his speculation, if the intelligent brain needs to work quickly, more "instruments" will be needed, which can be simplified and used as auxiliary computing units.

If he didn't pursue speed, one tower spirit alone would be enough for him to use, but what was the difference between this and his own research?

Xia Duo thought about it for a while and decided to slow down for the time being. It wasn't that he wasn't going to make a Zhi Nao anymore, but the price was too exaggerated. The pressure in the floating city was already great enough, so there was no need to fall into the futility of Zhi Nao again. pit.

If you want ectoplasm, you don't have to go to the Seven Towers to buy it. Now the Arcane Federation is already building an ether forward base. Although it is cooperating with the Seven Towers, it will not let the Seven Towers collect all the ectoplasms.

You might be able to get a lower price by purchasing there, or at the worst, you can go hunting in the etheric plane in person.

Of course, Xia Duo still prefers to spend money for convenience. Hunting sounds unreliable at first glance. Twisted Phantoms live in groups in the etheric plane.

Basically, discovering one means more. If it's a small settlement, that's fine. Generally, you can run away even if you can't defeat it. But if you encounter a large settlement, there will almost certainly be a Twisted Phantom King.

That kind of powerful existence is difficult for even the Great Arcanist to deal with.

More importantly, no matter what kind of strength the twisted phantom is, it is intelligent and will not fight to the death if it cannot defeat it.

Moreover, hunters cannot judge in advance whether the target belongs to a small settlement or a large settlement. As long as they cannot succeed in one blow, they will either retreat in embarrassment or be surrounded by a team of twisted phantom kings, narrowly escaping death.

In addition to the hunting itself, there are also various uncertain factors in the etheric plane, such as native hunters in the etheric plane, or some special environments.

All may have a negative impact on the results.

Although Sha Duo really wanted to obtain ectoplasm and then try to create a brain, the matter was not urgent enough that he had to go to the etheric plane to hunt in person.

After thinking about it, Chateau had already made a decision. He summoned Brundes to inform him of his intention to purchase, and agreed to meet again after Midsummer Festival to discuss in detail.

Of course Brundes has no objection to this, "Then I will wait for Lord Chateau in Severton to arrive! In addition, Midsummer is approaching. Regarding the candidates for the bloodline sequencing plan, is Lord Chateau ready?"

"It's ready. I will take them to Severton after Midsummer."

After the communication was interrupted, Sha Duo couldn't help but scratch his head. Recently, he had been distracted by the floating city and Spire No. 1. If Brundes hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten all about the blood sequencing plan.

He said he was ready, but in fact he hadn't informed him at the Tower of Time yet!

With such a rare opportunity to study abroad, how should you choose?

…

Back at the Tower of Time, Niya was still awake, and the two of them were lying on the bed chatting casually about new topics in this midsummer——

"The Academic Affairs Office is already short of teachers, and you have to recruit so many people at once this year. Do you want to add a few more professional exams next month?"

"How can this be!"

Xia Duo put his hand on the back of Niya's hand and gently comforted her, "The previous temporary increase in exams was indeed a shortage of people, but more importantly, the number of level 3 apprentices.

"Now after several temporary additions, the number of level 3 apprentices has been greatly reduced, and it is expected that it will be difficult to return to the previous state in a short time."

"Then what do you want to do?" Niya asked again.

"It's difficult!"

"Can't we accept fewer people?"

Xia Duo heard that there was no dissatisfaction in Niya's words, but more of confusion. She didn't know why Xia Duo had to be so anxious.

But in fact, Xia Duo has already slowed down a lot, which is the result of compromise with the territory, the Tower of Time and even the external environment.

According to his own ideas, it would be best to provide universal education in one step. Although it would not be a matter of teaching magic right away, such a mechanism must be established first.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo only said four words - "Time waits for no one!"

Hearing this explanation, Niya was stunned for a moment, but then nodded thoughtfully, "Then we need to dispatch level 2 apprentices to give introductory lessons to the new apprentices?"

"It's okay. Not everyone has enough talent to become a formal mage. At least within the three-year agreement period, it is estimated that many people will face the dilemma of breach of contract."

"Then what do you want-"

"Of course it's to provide them with a job that allows them to repay their debt quickly!" Xia Duo said with a smile.

The authorized apprenticeship program originally started the year before last, and all new apprentices recruited since then have joined the program. Now that the three-year period is more than half-way, basically everyone has a yardstick in their mind as to whether they have enough talent.

The agreement period has not yet come. For those who are more talented and can pass the professional exam within three years, Xia Duo feels that it is better to let them continue to study.

But for those with average talents who were destined to fail to pass the exam within three years, Xia Duo felt that there was no need for them to waste time.

It is more practical to join the workforce as early as possible to earn money and repay liquidated damages, and even if you join the workforce, it does not mean that the magical path has come to an end.

Even magic technicians have the opportunity to advance further, let alone teachers. Maybe one day they will be enlightened in their jobs and put on a good show of late bloomers.

In fact, in Xia Duo's view, becoming a formal mage is equivalent to graduating from elementary school. Even if someone fails to graduate successfully during that period, it does not mean that elementary school knowledge is insulated from him.

As long as you are engaged in magic-related work, you will be able to master these basic knowledge naturally over time. This is called "learning at work and growing at work!"

The academy route is as good as the academy route, and the technician route is as good as the technician route. In the future magic civilization, there is no absolute distinction between superior and inferior.

Both have a bright future as long as they follow him steadfastly.

…

"By the way, I'm going to use a new teaching method to teach new apprentices this year."

"In what way?" Niya asked curiously.

"The automatic answering machine is actually a kind of 'weapon spirit' specially prepared for them!"

Xia Duo told Niya about his research some time ago. Although it may not be possible to form a brain for the time being, these 'weapon spirits' cannot be left idle and can be used by the apprentices first.

Incidentally, you can also test the stability of the "Tool Spirit" through extensive use. If you can find a few "bugs", that would be great.
