The printing shop's business is getting back on track faster than anyone expected. In addition to the work of printing mathematical journals and the research on experimental printing of magic scrolls, it also began to undertake a large number of external printing work.
Perhaps it was thanks to someone's prompting to treat magic words separately from non-magical words. In this way, I unexpectedly discovered that in the world of magicians, there are many projects that can use printing methods to shorten working time.
Although there is no saying that "time is money" in the Lost World, this is partly because the concept and use of "money" are not as deeply rooted in people's hearts as they are on Earth. However, it is still very popular to save working time and improve work efficiency.
Of course, if there are benefits, there will be people who are harmed. But compared to the first wave of impact brought by the forum, the impact brought by the printing press is not as big as the forum.
And the research on printing magic scrolls is also in full swing.
The journal’s content selection has also gone at its own pace. The test takers who participated in the selection committee were not as enthusiastic as expected, and everyone participated.
Judging from the performance of the participants, people who come to mathematics classes can be roughly divided into two categories: those who seek fame and those who seek knowledge. The former will be more actively involved in any related activities, while the latter just wants to do research quietly.
But no matter which one it is, Lin does a good job of dividing some of the work of the journal. Those who took over are also running the crude system smoothly.
The screening of silk moth species proceeds slowly and seemingly smoothly, but in fact the research targets are constantly expanding.
The eighteen kinds of magic moths and four kinds of ordinary moths collected before certainly do not mean that the number of moth groups is limited to this. Insects are the most diverse species in any world. The ones collected are only the types that can be captured in a short period of time and in locations close to the Holy City.
The bounty placed by the Lich on the Adventurer's Guild has not yet been removed. Moth species that only existed in distant places were successively sent to the hands of a certain lich in the holy city of Estali by different groups of adventurers.
Of course, if you collect too many moth species at home, conflicts will inevitably occur. For example, if you already have a species on hand, when someone else sends you the same moth species, will you not be rewarded? Pay at a discount? Or pay in full? The lich who personally went to the guild to receive the moth seeds had several quarrels with the adventurer group and almost dismantled the guild.
This was the one who was victimized. None of the members at the Adventurer's Guild reception desk could beat her, otherwise they would have been "private" long ago. But the current situation is that the other party does not welcome the reappearance of this lich, but they do not dare to stop it because they are powerless to stop it.
In the end, someone had to step in to deal with the aftermath. It's not a blanket decision to stop the entire bounty, but rather to make the originally vague requirements more clear. Furthermore, considering that many adventurers may be illiterate, the words should be chosen in a way that these people can understand, rather than in a literary way, where it takes a long time to think about a sentence before you can understand the meaning.
The specific points are as follows: 1. The same moth species, male and female are a pair, and the reward is xx Kir. Able to capture three pairs of live and healthy moth species, the maximum total bounty is c kiir;
2. The bounty will also include an exclusive list, which is the moth species that have been collected. If someone brings a moth species on the list to receive the reward, the ordinary moth species will not pay the bounty, and the demon moth species with power will pay a bounty of no more than one-tenth of the first item, which is considered the hard work of catching the demon insects. .
3. Only bring magic moths of a single gender. If there is no male and female pair, ordinary moths will not be paid, and the maximum bounty for each magic moth will not exceed i Kil. Regardless of the species, this is still considered hard work.
In addition to specific text descriptions, the exclusion list also has characteristic pictures and individual pictures, so that people at least have a basis for comparison.
The descriptions and pictures of these bounty requests and exclusive lists are all placed in a special section of the Adventurer Guild's forum, making them available to all fans.
Thanks to the convenience of the forum, organizations like the Adventurer's Guild and the Mercenary Guild, which are spread all over the land, have not only improved dozens or hundreds of times in the dissemination of information and commissions compared to the past.
In the past, guilds mainly provided local commissioned tasks, and occasionally regional tasks, but the time limit was long and the performance was not good. Now that there is a guild in the forum, commissioned tasks are divided into three levels: global, regional, and local. Also because of the rapid transmission of information, as long as the reward is attractive, it is easy to attract adventurers to move long distances and work in places with more money and prospects.
The bounty commission provided by Fen is of course at the level of the entire land. Taking into account the differences in moth species across the world, if we really want to study this aspect, it is of course unlikely to be limited to a small area.
It's just that it sounds nice, but in fact it's not that simple. The reward of the highest C Kil is very generous for ordinary adventurers. It is true that catching the magic moth alive is not that difficult as long as there is sufficient preparation; the trouble lies in how long the distance is to be traveled with the living magic beast. In exchange for a bounty that may not even be enough to subsidize travel expenses.
Not to mention the variables that come with long, time-consuming moves. For example, for a moth species that was not originally on the exclusive list, because someone else handed it over first, subsequent adventurers could only receive less than one-tenth of the reward. This change in time difference is also one of the main reasons for disputes between Fen and the adventurers who come to receive rewards.
Therefore, although it is a bounty for the entire Lost Land, its influence is actually only in the area surrounding the Holy City.
Of course, there are also outsiders who just want to use their muscles to 'reward', just like the group of people sitting in front of me.
No doubt from out of town. The number of local logged-in adventurers in the Holy City is quite small, and they are mainly based on the magic side. The pure warrior groups can only be from outside.
He looked at a big bald man, about the same size as a bear, carrying a broad sword and leading several brothers, shouting loudly and spitting stars, looking like he was going to drown people. "I said, this is what you want, why don't you give me money!"
Lin looked at the sickly Moth who was pressed on the table with embarrassment. It has triangular wings with one horizontal and three vertical stripes on its wings. Its body shape is slender compared to other moth species, but not to the level of a butterfly or dragonfly. The most obvious feature is that the two tentacles on its head are green hairs, so it is widely known as the Green Devil Moth.
The scale powder of the Green Demon Moth has hallucinogenic and paralyzing effects. In fact, this is a common feature of most Demon Moths. However, the toxicity of the Green Demon Moth is not very strong, and ordinary people may not be able to withstand it. A strong warrior can continue to fight for a period of time without fear of the influence of the scale powder.
The Green Demon Moth is not very powerful. In the parlance of the Earth game, it is a novice monster. As long as it doesn't grow to a large scale, a fledgling adventurer can conquer it easily. Moreover, the Green Demon Moth has a vast distribution area and a large number of them, so it is the most commonly used moth species to receive rewards.
The problem is, the silk thread of this moth species cannot be used!
According to Hallumi's breeding results, the most suitable moth species that meet the conditions of silk material envisaged by someone are those with polka dot patterns on their wings. The silk threads spun out by the larvae of this subspecies of magic moth can all carry the most basic magic set by Lin, which is the protective magic against high-dimensional alien energy.
Other moth species have subspecies that are useful and some that are not. Considering that we plan to conduct cross-breeding in the future, we can only target subspecies of one of the species. Although other moth species have not been completely abandoned, only a few of the more outstanding species have been retained for future research. Perhaps silk thread blending will produce different surprises.
However, the current situation is that there are too many green devil moths, and someone has already received them and no longer wants to continue collecting them. Not to mention that the sickly moth in front of me should be taken back and used as fertilizer?
Perhaps because the expression of disgust on his face was too obvious, the bear-like warrior roared again: "Why, you don't want to admit it! This is found according to the guild's bounty standards. You want more than three male and female pairs, I caught a dozen of them and brought them back, including one C. Kir, so just count it as your Kir."
The reward is one hundred gold for three pairs of six, but this guy is worth one hundred gold, and he can't pass the most basic mathematics. But instead of being busy complaining, Lin looked at the cage where the other party said he had caught more than ten magic moths, and hey, they were all lying down. Some had obvious external injuries, such as missing wings and half of their bodies; some even began to rot, but the one that was captured and displayed was the only one alive.
"These moths are all dead. I want to live. It's useless to die. This big brother." Lin said helplessly.
But the warrior who listened was not happy, so he raised his broad sword and swung it. Someone was able to dodge quickly, using the flash technique to just avoid the blade of the broadsword, but it felt like he was dazzled and took a few steps back. However, the soldier only wanted to scare people, not to actually kill people, so he did not pursue him. He just said like a ghost beating a wall: "Give money, give money. When I caught them, they were still alive. Now they are dead and you can't blame me." . Anyway, you just give money, give money, give money!”
After retreating to the counter of the guild, Lin turned sideways and asked the little girl at the counter: "Why don't people like them help to block it?"
The Adventurer's Guild, as a platform for entrusting and distributing tasks, is certainly not the kind of bad businessman on Earth who only cares about collecting intermediary fees and trying to separate both parties when encountering problems. Generally speaking, the association acts as an intermediary and has both certification and guarantee responsibilities.
For example, rating and setting remuneration for entrusted tasks, so that there will be no such thing as slaying a dragon and only getting paid by iKiel. On the other hand, it ranks adventurers to confirm that the person who takes on the task has the ability to complete it. When disputes arise, it is also the guild that steps in to act as an arbiter and punish liars who try to commit fraud in their commissions.
However, this function has been challenged in recent years. The cause is the development of the forum. The guild itself is in a period of transformation and adaptation, and some steps have been taken too far, resulting in some unsatisfactory results. For the senior leaders of the guild, they are also figuring out the way forward.
