Arcane Lord

As for Xia Duo himself, he has never thought about competing with excavators for strength, speed with cars, or computing power with computers. Even now, after many bloodline awakenings, his strength, speed and even thinking are qualitatively better than before. Ascension, he never thought of conquering everything with his physical body alone.

The sages from my hometown said long ago, "A gentleman's nature is not different, he is good at things and fake things." The reason why people are human is largely because they can use tools.

Of course, psychic mages also have the means to use external objects to increase their own power, but the source of power is still themselves. In Sha Duo's view, this is undoubtedly their biggest flaw.

The power of an individual is limited. If you cannot use external objects to obtain new sources of power, no matter how much power you have, there will be a time when it will be exhausted, and then you will be at the mercy of others.

In general, Xia Duo is very satisfied with his achievements in the time acceleration zone in the past two years. Although he cannot directly counterattack the mental world, he can at least neutralize the opponent.

The only thing he is a little dissatisfied about now is that he still lacks a psychic master to cooperate with him in actual combat testing. Of course, even if there is not one, it will not affect the practical use of the [World Editor] spell.

Verification is just the final step, and Xia Duo believes that he has full trust in his research results.

…

Tower of Time, study room on the top floor.

Shado and Niya sat next to each other in front of the projection window. Now the Tower of Time has been moved to the public area of ​​the Floating City. The projection they are facing now is the real-time scene outside the Tower of Time.

Not far away in Hengchun Square, a group of children were touring around under the leadership of a young man, occasionally stopping to explain. Seeing this scene, Xia Duo couldn't help but smile.

If he guessed correctly, they should be the teachers and students of the territory's enlightenment class. He seemed to have some impression of the leading young man. He should have met him during the last job assessment he presided over before entering the time acceleration zone.

According to the regulations of the Tower of Time, only those who obtain the first-level mage class will be assigned various jobs. Before obtaining the first-level mage class, they are all apprentices.

As you can imagine, the young man in Hengchun Square outside looked very young, as if he was already an official mage under age, which was completely unimaginable in the past.

This is the magic of modern education!

"That little guy should be the youngest official mage since the Tower of Time was built, right?" Sha Duo said casually.

When Niya heard this, she couldn't help but snorted, "Why don't you tell me? I'm the youngest official mage!"

"How does Inster Dodd compare with you? You should have been exposed to magic before you were 16 years old, right? But what about him? He may have been helping the family before he was 16 years old! If I remember correctly, he He must be only 17 years old this year!”

In other words, it only took one year for Yinster Dodd to become an official mage. This kind of progress would have been astonishing in the past.

When Xia Duo said this, Niya immediately fell silent, but what Xia Duo didn't say was that Yinster Dodd's speed of progress is rare now, but it is not that rare.

At present, the little guy is indeed the youngest official mage in the Tower of Time, but he may not be the fastest to become an official mage. Some people "enroll" at an older age than him, but they progress faster than him.

Moreover, Xia Duo also discovered a trend, that is, with the increasing improvement of the teaching system of the Tower of Time Academic Affairs Office, the original three-year training plan has become increasingly outdated.

More and more apprentices are able to complete all scheduled studies within two years. Those who cannot complete it within two years may not be able to complete it if they are given one more year.

Therefore, Xia Duo is now considering whether to shorten the apprenticeship semester from the previous three years to two years.

Speaking of which, the apprenticeship stage before becoming a formal mage originally existed as an enlightenment stage in Sha Duo's plan. By analogy with the school system in his hometown, it should be regarded as the kindergarten and elementary school stages.

Formal mage - more accurately speaking, it should be the level 1 mage to level 10, which is divided into the middle school stage. The advanced arcanist is the college entrance examination. If you pass it, you will go to university. The great arcanist is a graduate student.

If you fail to advance successfully, you can choose to repeat the grade and continue taking the exam, or you can choose to transfer to the vocational education stage, that is, continue to rise from the 10th level mage, and take the route of a legendary mage to a grand arcanist.

Different from the arcanist's academy route, the legendary mage route is basically employment-oriented and engages in occupations related to magic applications, such as magic technicians, magic farmers (Dru Yin), professional warriors, etc.

These professions basically no longer engage in specialized basic research work, but will develop in-depth in their professional fields under the guidance of relevant researchers. As long as they delve deeply into their own fields, it is not unreasonable to become a legend.

In Xia Duo's plan, it can be said that there will be no professions that have nothing to do with magic in the future. Even if he cannot cast spells and lives in a society full of magical creatures, he cannot be separated from magic.

The so-called "civilization of magic" is essentially prepared for those who cannot cast spells. In the foreseeable future, magic civilization will be in a state of coexistence of spell casters and non-spell casters for a long time.

If you don't think about it and prepare in advance, the more advanced magic is, the more it will separate these two groups that actually belong together.

"By the way, while I'm away, is there any news from Jie Yin?" Xia Duo touched Niya with his shoulder and asked softly.

"Yes, he came to see you several times some time ago. If he didn't find you, he told me."

Niya looked like if you want to know, just ask me. Of course, Sha Duo couldn't help but be satisfied and quickly asked: "What does he want from me? Is there any new progress in the research on starters?"

"how do you know?"

"Can I not know about the task I assigned him? Tell me, what is the new development?"

"Well, the reason why Jie Yin came to you is to tell you that he has developed a universal launcher that can take into account usage scenarios that are not in the arcane field."

In fact, Niya doesn't care about the starter at all. She cares more about Xia Duo's attitude, "By the way, Jie Yin also sent a sample, which is a magic lamp. He said that you will like it very much when you see it. of."

"Magic lamp?"

"That's what he said. I put it away without even looking at it."

With that said, Niya asked Taling to send over a rather delicate box. Xia Duo opened the box and on the velvet inside lay a small gadget similar to a desk lamp from his hometown.

Below is the base, with a thin rod in the middle, and above it is a thin claw structure similar to a ring inlaid with gems, but it is not a gem, but a colorless and transparent crystal.

The entire lamp has no magical aura, and the production technique is relatively crude. At first glance, it looks like the work of a bad craftsman.

But next to the lamp, there is a small square that integrates all the magical light in the box. It is this small square that makes Xia Duo almost unable to take his eyes away.

In this regard, he gave his words of praise without hesitation——

"What a genius idea! It's so ingenious!"
