Although the leader of the Dark Legion is a lich, not the entire legion is composed of undead. It can be said that a group of forces that have been suppressed for a long time suddenly reared their heads by taking advantage of the situation. Although the price was to be enemies of the old gods at that time, the advantage was that they could plunder, kill, and take revenge as much as they wanted.
Besides, the undead generally give people the illusion that they are getting stronger as they fight. In fact, it is quite easy to replenish the undead at the lowest level, and the expansion is only in quantity, not in quality. Undead creatures are not truly immortal, and their general strength is even weaker than that of warriors of the same level.
When encountering a war fortress like the Magic Tower that can only be conquered through sheer effort, how many lost skeleton soldiers can be replenished after it is conquered? Even if the magician in the tower is resurrected as a lich, the converted combat power may not be able to offset the losses. Even the magic apprentice resurrected into a lich is an even more ridiculous idea. The cost of the transformation ritual is simply not worth investing in an ordinary magic apprentice.
Conclusion: The demon king from thousands of years ago has been resurrected. But if you want to reconquer the world in this era, unless there is a way to solve the problem of magic towers everywhere in the land, the dark army that once swept everything will only be able to eat dust.
When the few people sitting on the fifth floor of Tower VI of the Six Towers of the Holy City understood the difference between a thousand years ago and this era, they no longer had so much resistance to the resurrection of the 'Devil King'.
The Demon King can only do so much harm on his own, but what really scares people is the legion sweeping the entire world. But in this era of magic towers everywhere, no matter how powerful the legions come, they have to hide. Without the consensus of the magician world, whoever wants to conquer the world can only choose one tower after another to pull out, and then bleed their own blood, and the great cause will be over.
Let go of the previous haze and no longer dwell on the lich's former identity. Mildiades picked up the mathematics journal in front of him and flipped through it casually. At the same time, he asked: "Xiao Gai, do you think it is really not possible to use a printing press to make magic scrolls?" The Dharma Saint, who called him the same as the principal of Kabamba Academy, tried to close the distance and asked relentlessly.
Lin didn't hold back on the old man's persistent pursuit, saying: "There must be a way to break through, but we can't find it yet."
"How about you leading the research in this area? I can use my connections to support your research."
Someone was just laughing, and before he had time to respond, the great magician Kabanbai said sullenly: "I don't need you to worry about it, sir. I have already organized the manpower and am ready to do research in this area."
Mildiades was not angry even after being hit with a soft nail. Instead, he keenly grasped the key point of the words and counterattacked: "Oh, isn't Mr. Tripwood taking the lead?"
Seeing that the topic turned back to him, Lin smiled and explained: "Sir, to tell you the truth, I have indeed done similar research, but there was no progress. Because it involves many aspects, in addition to using mathematics to In addition to analysis, it also involves the formula of ink, the formula of paper, etc. There are many areas that I am not familiar with. These rely on the dean of the college to organize magicians who are good at various fields to conduct research. And I also have my own The magic and mathematics research is in progress, and I really cannot be distracted from the subject of printing magic scrolls. The most I can do is provide some assistance on the printing machine."
Someone's explanation helped him get out of the quagmire, and it also helped the two elderly people get off the ground. In fact, everyone knew very well that the Dharma Saint's apprentice had offended someone, and the principal was holding his breath. Even if the person is under the roof, he has no intention of pursuing the case, and the great magician Kabamba has no intention of greeting the person with a smile.
As for the trouble Hakim had caused for him, Mildiades could only touch it with his nose and swallow it himself. After all, he never tried to stop his apprentice from the beginning. He also had the intention of testing the magician in front of him. When it was time to stop, the inexperienced young man made things get out of hand. It was his own miscalculation.
He had no choice but to say: "Since Mr. Kabanbai is taking the lead, I think there will be results soon. Then I will wait for the good news."
Mildiades did not say anything pretentious to help because he knew that in the Holy City, the influence and strength of the great magician Kabambai were not as good as him, but the gap was not big. If he can't do something, he probably won't be able to do it; if he can do it, even if it comes to him, he can only speed up a little bit.
As one of the six tower masters in the Holy City and one of the top managers of the Great Library, Mildiades has so many magic research projects that he has to queue up to solve them.
Although printing magic scrolls is of strategic significance to magicians, it also has great prospects. But from his point of view, as long as someone completes it, it doesn't necessarily have to be done by his own hands. I have long since broken away from the pursuit of fame or making money.
Now that the business was done and everything that needed to be understood was understood, both parties still had things to do, so the meeting ended with the Dharma Saint personally accepting ten mathematical journals. Mildiades asked his female apprentice to see the guests off. Of course, this is a situation where all the maze traps have been cleared.
After a few more useless polite words, Lin left behind the female apprentice and the dean of his own academy.
Just when I got off the stairs to the fourth floor, I saw Hakeem still imprisoned in mid-air at the entrance of the stairs. Originally he had calmed down, but when he saw the person coming, he became angry and wanted to curse. It's a pity that he has been hit by the silence spell a long time ago, and he can't even make a whine at this time. He couldn't turn his head, he could only stare at the person with red eyes, and then watch the person leave.
However, when Lin passed by Hakim, he still asked one more question: "Won't the master of the tower put him down?"
This question was not directed to the female apprentice walking in front, but to the old man who should be paying attention to this place in some way. Sure enough, the voice of the absent Dharma Saint came and said: "Let the child stay there and calm down for a day. Don't worry about him."
Although he was imprisoned, Hakim could still hear the sounds of the outside world. Of course he was extremely angry but helpless about what his teacher said. There was no way for him to break free from the confinement technique in Tower VI.
The young man's teacher had already spoken, and Lin didn't say anything more or make any provocation. There's no point in being too serious with a little guy who can't figure out what he's doing.
The same carriage returns. On the way, the dean of the college, Kabanbai, obviously talked a lot, and he also focused on various aspects of the printing press. It seems that this old man is holding back his energy and wants to achieve something.
In line with the principle of providing spiritual support but not actual participation, Lin is still very careful about what he says. Printing magic scrolls is something that my small body cannot afford. Therefore, it is better to leave it to those who can play it. You only need to grasp the source of the printing press.
From the perspective of the earth, I do not make products, only industrial machines. Anyone who wants to get a piece of the market pie has to ask for help. That's enough. If the upstream, midstream and downstream industries are all covered and no one can drink any water, then just deal with business conflicts all day long and don't do anything yourself. This is putting the cart before the horse.
When we returned to the academy, it was not yet noon. The sales volume of mathematics journals is tepid. Unlike other time travel predecessors, just printing some ghostly drawings and selling them can cause crowds to grab them and empty the streets.
In fact, this is not difficult to understand. On the one hand, this is only the first day of sales, and it’s less than half a day. Second, most of the content has been published before.
As far as someone knows, although the lecture notes can only be obtained by those who take mathematics classes and those from the college, there are still various ways for people who are interested in mathematics to obtain part of the content. At least, Lin couldn't forbid people who came to class to discuss it with their friends after they went back. After going back and forth, I have pretty much everything I want to know and can know.
Some of the new content in the journal is actually suspected of being a piece of cake. Except for people who are very interested in the field of pure mathematics, they will want to know different methods to prove a result, so as to inspire more thinking; pragmatists only need to know the result, and proof is just a process.
There are hundreds of people who take mathematics classes, and they all have different opinions on whether to support mathematics journals. Of course there are those who elevate their support to the level of belief and accept everything about mathematics unconditionally.
There are also those who are fussy and may not dare to point out the amount of tuition fees. After all, they are a sole proprietor, but they are very dissatisfied with the pricing of journals. As someone had imagined before, although XL Kir (40 gold) is not an embarrassing amount for a magician, it is not an amount that can be decided casually.
Some clues about this can be seen from the mathematics class on the first day of the publication of the mathematics journal. In the small talk before class, although many people did not speak openly, someone could still hear the support or contempt in the words.
Although I am a little disappointed with such a lukewarm buying sentiment, it is also expected. So Lin didn't want to complain. Anyway, my next plan is to focus on the production of magic silk. Not only myself, this is also something that the three women in the family are very concerned about.
However, the lukewarm response to the first issue of the Mathematics Journal lasted less than three days. On the fourth day, it was as if enthusiasm was detonated. In addition to the reserved volumes, more than 900 first-run periodicals were sold out in one day.
What attracts the support of magicians is not the content of the journal, but the method of printing the journal. Just like the surprise of Saint Mildiades when he saw the finished product of ten volumes of mathematical journals, the news that someone planned to print the book had already spread, but these well-informed old magicians were not familiar with the mystery of the land. I really don’t have much confidence in the printing technology. But the final result still shocked everyone.
Therefore, more and more people are interested in the machines placed in the printing room, and even come to see them with their own eyes. Of course, without exception, they all asked: Can I print a magic scroll?
Someone really wants to ask these magicians what obsession they have with magic scrolls.
