Arcane Lord

Currently, the Tower of Time has completed the mass production of some magic items. In addition to unified measurement standards, the most critical step is to dismantle the process and set up production lines for division of labor.

Among all processes, except for the step of connecting the magic network, all others can be realized through "pre-programming" of the alchemy array to achieve unmanned automated production.

The reason why the current magic technicians are still retained is that on the one hand, the cost of upgrading the production line is relatively high, and it also requires a long time to zero output. On the other hand, it is related to Xia Duo's plan.

The result of the popularization of magic education is that a large number of spellcasters will be produced. It is impossible for all of these people to be trained in the direction of all-rounders as in the past, and they need to be diverted in various senses. (The ultimate goal is to be an all-rounder~)

Furthermore, magic technicians are not dispensable tool workers. Xia Duo will train them towards advanced technicians in intelligent manufacturing, such as alchemy circle programming engineers, automation design engineers, etc.

They are not needed for pure manual labor. It can be said that the first thing that Xia Duo will liberate in the future is civilized individual manual labor.

Of course, liberation does not mean elimination, nor does it mean that activities that require physical exertion such as sports will disappear, but it means that non-creative manual labor should be eliminated as much as possible.

Since there is no need for people to engage in non-creative labor, it can only be left to machines, and the final piece of the puzzle in automated production is to connect to the magic network.

Previously, Xia Duo had thought of using a tower spirit or an intellectual brain to achieve this, but unfortunately, both the tower spirit and the intelligent brain were essentially copies of the caster's consciousness. Without the most critical real will, they could not cast spells at all. .

Of course, if you can't cast spells, you can't talk about connecting to the magic network.

The so-called tower spirit controlling the mage tower is essentially an instinct that is more similar to controlling one's own body (the tower spirit is equivalent to the soul of the mage tower. If the mage tower is updated, the tower spirit also needs to be updated simultaneously in order to continue to control the update of the mage tower. That part), you can only use spells preset in the spell pool.

Maybe it can show a certain degree of adaptability. After all, the copy of consciousness has normal wisdom as long as it is not deleted too much, but this kind of adaptability can never go beyond the preset range.

If we only talk about the application of spells, there is not much difference between the tower spirit and the real person. After all, the real person also has an invisible "spell pool" limit. The only difference is probably that he cannot conduct spell duels at the element level.

But this can also be achieved indirectly by expanding the spell pool, but it is difficult to achieve. In theory, it is possible.

In fact, the tower spirit's application of spells is essentially based on the control of the magic item as the main body (usually the mage tower).

It can only use existing and set magic items, but cannot directly control other magic items, let alone produce new magic items.

If possible, the price of the mage tower will never be what it is now, because if the tower spirit can survive new magic items, then it can copy itself or something else as long as it obtains the corresponding permissions and resources.

That scene was even more exaggerated than the artificial intelligent brain in the science fiction works that Sha Duo had seen in his hometown, so after confirming that the tower spirit, tool spirit, and intelligent brain could not cast spells, he did not spend too much time looking for new ones. ideas.

Subconsciously, he had already concluded that it would be difficult to produce magic items. Until today, the process of making the [Spirit Amulet] awakened his strong desire for higher productivity.

If the final networking process of the [Essence Amulet] can be applied to the production of other magic items, it will definitely bring about earth-shaking changes to the world.

It will initially affect the price of magic items, and then this influence will quickly spread to the entire world. As long as it gets through the initial period of weakness, no power will be able to resist it.

"hiss--"

Xia Duo couldn't help but take a breath, and his heartbeat began to accelerate. Such a picture really made him have the urge to start researching regardless of everything.

But after calming down, he decided to put it aside for the time being. In addition to the fact that this networking method, which is more focused on the interaction of blood and elemental spirits, is difficult to transform into the general arcane magic system, the most important point is that he will not use it in a short time. superior.

At present, the number of mages in the Tower of Time can be said to be excessive. If they cannot be assigned jobs, it will inevitably cause unrest in people's hearts and even threaten the plan to popularize education.

This is also an important reason why Xia Duo still retains a large number of magic technicians. If we really want to simplify the production process, except for the step of connecting the magic network, everything else can be automated.

As long as the employment problem of the new group of mages is solved, the hearts of this class will be stabilized. In essence, this class is not just a group of new mages who have been promoted through the expansion of the Tower of Time, but people who have received education in future civilizations. Every individual can also be said to be the main body of civilization.

Even the main body of civilization has nothing to do, so what is the meaning of such a civilization?

Therefore, in the current initial stage, many factors require the "prophet" of Sha Duo to plan, not only the employment of new mages, but also all aspects needed for the development of civilization.

…

Xia Duo took off the [Self-Made Amulet] that had been "self-made" and carefully looked at it in the palm of his hand. Some of the blood that he had previously injected into the lines of the mithril ring seeped out due to contact with his skin. .

Only then did he notice that his blood did not actually participate in the composition of the [Essence Amulet], but only acted as a primer or catalyst.

"well--"

Xia Duo sighed slightly, but in the end he did not open the healed palm again to take back the blood, but directly annihilated it.

Occasional blood loss will not cause adverse effects on health. On the contrary, it is beneficial to the metabolism of the hematopoietic system and is beneficial to health, as long as it does not fall into the hands of malicious people.

Then Xia Duo stopped thinking about automation. It can be seen that the current essence amulet was completed by him and the elemental essence together, and it was not truly "automatically manufactured by machine".

There is no essential difference from enslaving other spellcasters, except that most elemental creatures are not intelligent, so there is no psychological or moral burden to enslave them.

"Let's consider this issue later. Now that the amulet is made, we should test the specific effect!"

Sha Duo did not doubt the authenticity of the records in the Mairead family's collection. After all, he had confirmed the principle, but it was hard to say how effective it would actually be.

…

Xia Duo didn't trust other people when it came to testing experiments involving consciousness and soul, so he called Niya over and briefly explained the causes and consequences, and the test officially began.
