As early as in the second video, when the goose-yellow mist filled the entire space on the first floor and only the outline of a person could be vaguely seen, Lin explained that it would take a long time to see the person who was doing the last-ditch attack. When the scene appeared, the five inspectors restrained their preparations for attack and only retained some defensive methods.
Even when Lin asked, "Should we verify the identity of the deceased in the video?" most inspectors just curled their lips and were not interested. In any case, the world of Lost World is a hierarchical world, and the status of magicians and ordinary people is different. Even if the world does not allow arbitrary killing, the power of life and death in the magic tower is the common limit for all magicians, even if they do not have the identity of the tower owner.
As long as people die in the tower, no matter how innocent those ordinary people are and no matter how wronged their reasons are, no magician will hold the tower owner accountable. As the supervisors who maintain the order of magicians in the world of Mystery, they loyally support this principle. If the deceased person has a relative of a magician, please take revenge yourself. The association and the inspectors will not get involved in the personal vendetta.
The inspectors were more interested in what Lin showed than in the right and wrong between the two parties. They gathered around the console and behind Lin. The leader, the great magician Greenwin, who was full of muscles and looked more like a berserker than a magician, stared straight at the mirror of the energy pool with his eyes shining, and asked: "Is this time reversal magic?"
In the world of Lost World, there is magic that can show distant scenes, but it is a real-time picture, and you can even communicate with each other. From Lin's perspective, it is a video conversation.
But to see the past or future scenes involves prophecy and time spells. Those who can show certain results in these two types of magic are worthy of admiration from others. In other words, ignore the future that has not yet happened; for the past that has happened, this world cannot yet perform the functions of recording and playing back.
…This is such a nonsense technological process. Sure enough, it's not scientific at all.
After a few words of slander, Lin still had to respect the great magician who asked the question, and explained politely: "This is not a time reversal. It is by monitoring the magic circle--" Pointing to the ceiling in the corner of the core room, a protruding chip was flattened. Made of white crystal, the base is a small magic circle glowing with light blue light. "──Save everything that happens as an image file. Then play it back when needed later."
As he spoke, Lin cut the screen into the actual surveillance screen. In the core room, there is the back view of everyone gathered in front of the console.
In order to show everything, Lin also deliberately walked to the monitoring crystal and waved. Just as it actually appears on the surveillance screen.
Then he returned to the console, brought up the scene of waving just now, and showed it to the inspectors.
Before becoming law enforcers, they were also magicians seeking all knowledge in the world. So I couldn't help but be curious about the novel things Lin showed. What follows is a barrage of questions.
After being pressed continuously, Lin felt powerless for a while, but he had to patiently explain. After all, the other party is an inspector. It is so easy for them to just find something to make them uncomfortable. So don’t make your customers unhappy.
However, a sudden problem still troubled Lin.
"Can you bring the images back to us, submit them to our superiors, and keep them for our records?"
It sounds like a request, but it's actually a command. It is the duty of the inspectors to leave reports and relevant evidence while completing their tasks. This evidence is also something that must be re-examined if there are doubts in the future. The problem is that these image files are saved based on the energy pool as the core and the entire magic tower as the hardware.
There are no chips, processors, or memory here, let alone a hard drive. Of course, there is no way to know data such as processor frequency and available storage space. I have thought about using magic stones as a medium to store and use them, but to save the video file, I have already used several high-quality magic stones from Lin.
He was reluctant to use his wealth to conduct experiments to measure the storage limit of each mass of magic stone. Because as long as it exceeds it, it will explode, and there is no word to indicate that there is insufficient space.
After explaining the dilemma he faced, Lin Duozui asked: "Do you have purple-level magic stones that I can try?" Looking at the five people whose faces fell, Lin also knew what the answer would be.
There are seven levels of magic stones from low to high: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple. But it does not mean that there are only seven types of magic stones, but it refers to the magical aura contained within. Its spectral wavelength is in the visible light range, transitioning from red to purple, and then roughly divided into seven intervals.
A medium-sized magic stone vein can excavate purple-level magic stones. After being cut into six-sided cylinders of standard size, there are only three or five pieces. So one can imagine how precious it is and how expensive it is. Lin usually only used red-level magic stones. The few he exploded were high-grade orange ingot-level magic stones that were close to yellow aura. Just thinking about it makes Lin's mouth twitch.
I understand that others can't easily take out that kind of high-end product; moreover, even if I do take out a purple-level magic stone, the video file will be successfully transferred to the magic stone, and it will still have no effect if it is taken elsewhere. On Earth, who can buy a DVD movie and see the movie just by looking at it with your eyes? You must have a player or computer. So Lin just asked casually.
"I have other ways for you to bring back the videos for discussion." After Lin finished speaking, he whistled and called his apprentice. "Halumi." He pointed to his ear. The understanding blond girl immediately took off the earring pendant and quickly handed it into her teacher's hands, but her expression was extremely reluctant to part with it.
Looking at his apprentice's expression, Lin couldn't help but feel funny and comforted: "Don't think too much, this one is just for testing. I will help you make a formal one later."
After receiving the promise, the girl's mood immediately changed and she returned to her original position happily. Lin then took off the pendant of the earring, which was a small, polished red magic stone.
Hold the red stone in your hand. The secret spell to activate it was very simple: "Forum." Then two water mirrors condensed in front of him, one standing and one flat, serving as the functions of the screen and keyboard. Lin waved his palm, controlled the water mirror on the screen to zoom in and faced everyone, followed the same steps to log into the forum page and said: "Use the magic stone as a carrier to browse the forum page."
At the same time enter the section of the 'Tower of the Great Sage'. There are several discussion threads in it, titled: 'Magic for Beginners', 'First Ring of Magic Explained', 'Second Ring of Magic Explained', 'Third Ring of Magic Explained' and a 'Kaya, there are so cute ones Small dog'. What the hell is this?
Looking at the final title, Lin himself felt baffled. Curiously, I went in and saw two young apprentices discussing a litter of puppies they encountered in the wild. One said it was so cute and wanted to take it back and raise it. The other one responded noncommittally, asking questions like where and how to raise it from time to time.
After a cursory glance, Lin withdrew from the discussion thread with some weakness. He turned to his two apprentices and said, "I'm not telling you anymore. What's above is the information you want to learn. It's for you to read at any time in your free time." . Not for chatting.”
The two girls were submissive. Looking at that look, Lin knew in his heart that the two of them didn't listen at all. But the guests are still there, so I can only put the two disobedient girls aside for now. Re-clicking the discussion thread of 'Magic for Beginners', a large amount of text content is exactly the same as the book of the same name provided by the Magicians Association.
This is provided by the association for magicians to teach apprentices, and it is also an introductory book that every apprentice must learn.
Lin touched the screen mirror with his finger, slid slightly, and browsed the second page, the third page, and even the content after that. Said: "The magic stone carrier can browse a large amount of pure text content without exhausting the energy instantly. According to the characteristics of magic stone, it will automatically restore a little energy when it is left standing, the red magic stone is enough as a carrier and does not need to be used as a carrier. How much consumption will there be? If you want to browse pictures, the energy consumption will be greater than the automatic recovery. As for the video file, it cannot be opened. If it is opened, the energy will be exhausted and the magic stone will be scrapped. Unless the magic stone level is high enough and the energy is sufficient. But to How high, I don’t know yet.”
Then, Lin placed the magic stone in his hand on the special octagonal and eight-pointed star magic circle on the left side of the console, and continued: "If you adults want to watch the video file after returning to the association, the best way is to use The energy pool of the association." As he said that, he pushed the screen water mirror towards the mirror energy pool, and the forum page covered the original surveillance screen. Then click on the video link to open and watch it smoothly.
After all, what is stored in the magic stone is a program similar to an operating system. In the Lost World, there is no so-called wireless or wired connection problem. As long as you are not in a forbidden area, you can connect to the Internet. Internet speed is not considered, only download traffic will be limited by the energy contained in the magic stone itself. When the energy of the magic stone is exhausted, the thing becomes useless. When used with the magic tower energy pool, basically Lin has not yet tested the limit.
Such a display is undoubtedly shocking to people with a medieval cultural level. The most important thing is that among the known magics - including those that are lost but have records, and do not include some people's undisclosed secrets - there is no long-distance real-time communication, and low-cost and almost no consumption of magic.
Although the Lost World can achieve effects similar to video calls, there are many restrictions, and it must rely on the huge energy of the energy pool to achieve similar effects. Now after asking about the communication distance, although Lin has not actually measured it, the system itself is based on the original function of using magic tower marks to achieve long-distance messages. Therefore, it is a reasonable inference that this system can be used wherever there is magic.
In addition, forums can store book content, pictures, and videos. In a world where there is no printing technology and knowledge is basically transmitted through dictation and handwriting, how much impact can such a tool have. When they thought about all this clearly, the inspectors opened their mouths one by one and looked at it all with straight eyes.
When Lin signaled to let the guests operate freely, the five high-ranking magicians almost got into a fight.
Perhaps it was the gap in seniority and combat power between them that made a fight end before it even started. The two junior magicians touched their noses and stepped aside first. After the three great magicians pointed out who had bigger biceps, the other two had no choice but to retreat.
However, they did not eagerly watch others operate. Instead, they surrounded Lin and bombarded him with questions. The question made someone collapse a little.
