Greetings, Mister Principal: Innovation
On the night after the meeting, in the hotel restaurant where Mercury Scale gathered, Reiner, who was invited, became the center of attention. WWW.SUIMENG.lā
The laws of the elements, a discovery that alchemy mages have been dreaming about for hundreds of years, were actually proposed by a first-level mage. This is surprising and makes people think deeply.
"Perhaps as we continue to explore forward, we should also look back at those things that we have neglected."
President Dmitri said, holding a small half glass of red wine in his hand, which was mellow in color and filled with the aroma of wine.
"Without the exploration of pioneers like you, Mr. Dmitry, how could future generations draw conclusions from it?"
Reiner praised, causing President Demetri to nod slightly.
"Reiner, in fact, not only Mercury Balance, but other organizations also think highly of you. Your proposal to establish a rescue fund and reward radioactive element research is very consistent with Mr. Braggs's ideas. No wonder There will be support."
"What is Mr. Braggs's opinion?"
Reiner asked rhetorically, he indeed has not studied the experience of that Excellency. The reason why he proposed to establish these mechanisms is to promote research in this area. He does not want the matter of Fina and her father to happen again somewhere. staged.
"Oh, this has been history many years ago. As a person who has just become a mage, it is normal for you not to know."
President Dmitry took a sip of red wine and continued.
"Actually, His Excellency Braggs created not only the modern magic system, but also changed the relationship between mages and civilians."
"The relationship between mages and civilians?"
This is the first time Reiner has heard of these things. He doesn’t know much about what happened three hundred years ago, but judging from what President Dmitry means, Lord Braggs is not just a knowledgeable person. mage.
"Yes, during the ancient magic empire, the relationship between ordinary humans and mages was not so friendly. Most mages became lords of one party by virtue of their own power. Mages dominated the entire world, and ordinary To them, humans are just slaves."
President Dmitri said calmly, which shocked Reiner.
"In that era, mages were the rule. Almost all mages lived in cities near the Star Gate, while ordinary humans lived in the countryside. It was rare to see a mage. Every year, some ordinary humans would appear. Children who have awakened the magical power of a first-level mage will be sent to towns to learn magic from their mentors. This is the inheritance model of ancient mage."
With a sigh, he continued.
"Bloodline mages are similar to ancient mages, except that they are more radical, raising ordinary people to continue to have children, and transforming children with blood. Only those who can withstand it are qualified to survive, otherwise they will only become deformed monsters, or Become food for livestock. In short, in the era of the ancient magic empire, the wizard controlled everything and looked down on all living creatures."
This is somewhat similar to the society where the weak and the strong appear in some of the novels he read on Earth, Reiner thought, so he asked.
"Your Majesty Braggs changed everything?"
"Yes, to be honest, there is no magician who doesn't want to be able to dominate all things. Most of the magicians in the ancient magic empire that lasted for thousands of years thought so. They have power that is simply impossible for ordinary people. Resistance, and who among the fellow mages is willing to hand over their power?"
President Dmitry drank the red wine in his glass and then said.
"But such a society, in the words of Mr. Braggs, is too inefficient."
"Too inefficient?"
Reiner expected to hear adjectives such as inhumane or cruel, but he didn't expect it to be too inefficient.
But if you think about it carefully, this is indeed a reason that a mage would put forward.
"The inheritance of a mage requires a lot of time to learn and the accumulation of various magic materials. If you use the original model, you will have to experience at least hundreds of failures to complete an inheritance. In the past, many mages were just because of their territory. There have been no children with talents for many years, and my lifespan has reached the end, causing the inheritance to be cut off. Even blood mage will have the problem of the decline of blood power from generation to generation."
Asking the waiter to pour another glass of wine, President Dmitri said with a slight sigh.
"Braggs realized that in order to really make the entire magic world grow, the conservative approach of the past was too ineffective. The first thing he did was to simplify magic and greatly popularize magic."
The popularization of magic has given ordinary people a certain amount of power. They no longer have to be troubled by wild beasts and natural disasters, and their production efficiency has been greatly improved. At the same time, with more ways to come into contact with magic, more and more people can awaken their magical talents. Although in a certain sense, the status of the mage has declined, it is an improvement for the entire magical world.
"Your Excellency Braggs built a magic school, trained magic apprentices, established a paper review mechanism, and encouraged people to explore and research the world. These three hundred years have triggered more feedback phenomena from the world than the ancient magic empire's three thousand years combined. ”
President Dmitri said that the ancient mages and blood mages in the past have never seriously explored the laws behind the world. They relied purely on meditation and bloodline transformation to accumulate magic power, which required too high a talent and physical fitness. , there are very few mages who can become high-level mages.
"So ~IndoMTL.com~ After the establishment of the Magic Association, the mages also restricted themselves and formulated many clauses to protect ordinary people. This seems a bit incredible, but it is such rules that can make The whole world will continue to develop in a good cycle."
Hearing this, Reiner understood why President Dmitry would say that he inherited his thoughts from Mr. Braggs, because whether it was setting up a fund to treat Fitzruin syndrome or giving out monetary rewards Researchers, this is a concept of sustainable development that coincides with Mr. Braggs.
"A mage is a rational creature, Reiner. The more you study in the future, the more you will realize this. The reason why the current social structure is formed is not because of kindness, but because of mutual respect. Only through peaceful development can we obtain the greatest benefits."
President Dmitri’s words made Reiner think, but he quickly added.
"But for mages like Kelavan Nabistin who dedicate themselves to the benefit of the greater people, we will not ridicule his 'irrational' behavior, because just like Lord Braggs As the saying goes, magic makes us stronger, and morality makes us nobler."
Reiner nodded silently, as if he had some understanding.
