At the bottom of the Iowa Mountains ruins, there is a 50-meter-deep cave. The bottom of the cave is rolling lava. There is a black rock in the center of the magma, and a magic furnace stands on the rock.
Lant, Orser Prager and three earth fairies stood on the cliff at the edge of the cave. On the rock wall behind them, in a circuit board-like array, several holy emblems of the Jade Moon God Willy were stuck. The light of the magma turned golden.
"Let me reintroduce myself. I was once a demigod member of the Imperial Mechanical Commission. My main focus at that time was the formation of magic furnace networks and the exploration of regional magic networks."
Orser Prager pointed to a holy emblem and said to Lant: "The god of magic furnaces and craftsmen of our clan was the god of His Majesty Willie back then. Every magic furnace we built was to expand the power of His Majesty. Magic Network, I have no motive to steal His Majesty’s authority. The magic furnace you see now and the Magic Network in the entire mountain were also ordered by Him!”
As the last generation of demigod-level mechanics of the goblin civilization, Orser Prager participated in a special project in the last era of civilization.
"Back then, our civilization built thousands of magic furnaces, which could be said to completely connect the magic on the entire planet to the Magic Network. However, the Magic Council was worried that the thousand-year magic wave would cause the entire Magic Network system to collapse, so there was Everything you see."
Regarding everything that happened back then, Orser Prager pointed out: "The plan proposed by our Mechanical Committee that year was to split the Magic Network in the entire Eastern Continent into 50-100 relatively independent regional networks. The networks are connected by special magic channels, so that the influence of the magic tide can be controlled within the area without causing the magic of the entire world to collapse."
Rant heard the key information: "In other words, you built thousands of magic furnaces back then, but you didn't cause any magic disaster?"
The hobgoblin said firmly: "Of course not! The existence of the magic network is to balance the tide of magic power. The magic furnace expands the magic network, which means that the more magic furnaces there are, the more stable the magic network will be, and the magic furnace is only converting magic power. The form does not create magic power. The more magic furnaces there are, the more magic power can be converted at the same time, and the overall magic network will only be more stable."
After hearing what Orser said, Rant couldn't help but nodded. Since the magic furnace is used to stabilize the magic network, more magic furnaces will only make the magic network more stable. Even if there is an upper limit, the magic power of the planet The total amount is limited, and if the magic furnace is oversaturated, it will not affect the total amount of magic power.
However, in this case, a new question arises: "It doesn't make sense. If all your magic furnaces are authorized by His Majesty, then how come the old magic furnaces you built back then suddenly collapsed? How could your civilization suffer?" To complete destruction?”
"Hmph, if you ask me, it's that idiot Mogulke!" On top of the rolling magma, Orser said the name he hated most, "He must do some kind of interstellar mining and sort out the gold coins in the pits. The other members of the Magic Council also followed suit..."
"Wait a minute," Rant said, somewhat confused. Although Mogluke was considered an "acquaintance" of his, and he also knew that Mogluke was the first to develop interstellar mining, but what is the relationship between mining and the collapse of civilization? No matter what, he couldn't keep up.
"I went to Mog Castle not long ago and had the honor to see the ruins and magic pattern plates there. Back then, your civilization was able to conduct interstellar mining and obtain enough currency. This was a good thing for you. How could you destroy the civilization with Where’s the mining hook?”
"If you hadn't gone, I really wouldn't have been able to explain it to you!" The hobgoblin shook his head and began to ramble on.
According to Orser Prager, a high-level mechanic, in fact, after Mogulq had just explored interstellar mining, the goblin civilization did have a good time that lasted for thousands of years. At that time, the currency supply and magic supply were very abundant. , demigods among the goblins continue to emerge, and other races: Warcraft, elves, humans, orcs, sea beasts, mermaids, and six-limbed civilizations all need to live in the goblin cities. The demon supporters of these tribes bring the goblin gods A huge power of faith.
"However, when gold coins are no longer minted for circulation, but only for the greed of the Magic Council, things become out of control!" Orser suddenly said after recalling the golden age,
"The group of goblins and demigods began to frantically build more magic furnaces, use the magic power of the magic furnace to mine more asteroid minerals, and use the magic furnace as collateral to mint more currencies and financial products. Magic furnaces, magic, mining and even The committees are all rushing towards financialization, and all magic flows are just by-products of financial circulation. Their knowledge, vision, and authority are just to mint more gold coins.”
The old goblin spoke faster and faster, and became more and more excited as he spoke, "When everything in civilization is marked by gold coins, do you think such a civilization can still be protected by gods? Can gods with eyes full of money still gain the support of believers? ? Can a sect that only values gold coins be accepted by the world?"
Suddenly, Orser stopped and sighed: "Until that day comes, our people are suddenly abandoned by the magic network, and 80% of the magic furnace bursts underground, swallowing up the goblin mechanics and magicians in an instant, and the dragon It swept across the sky and wiped out all the gold coins we had accumulated for thousands of years."
The old goblin's words silenced everyone. He stared at Lant and finally asked: "Your Majesty Willie's favored one, tell me, should I scold that Mogulke? If he hadn't brought the entire civilization with him, Going crazy, even if a large number of magic furnaces are destroyed, the dragons will not rob the goblins and demigods one by one."
Rant nodded silently, wishing Mogruke good luck in his heart.
"If your magic network was authorized by His Majesty Willy, what about her?" Teresa saw that Lant had no problem, and pointed at Orphen, "What did she say? You used the magic furnace to become a magic fairy. And you enslaved her to provide you with magic, is this how you treat His Majesty’s priests?”
"She knew about this before she was promoted. The magic network here is so special. She is a magic network creature, so there is no way she would not be aware of it," Orser showed a look of disdain.
"Besides, nothing I have done has disparaged Your Majesty Willy. I have never stopped exploring magic in the past ten thousand years. After the path to legend was clear a thousand years ago, I relied on my own efforts to obtain legendary magic. The strength of the master is only because the magic environment here is limited and I need to promote her, so she returned to the high-level level. You have no right to slander me!"
As a goblin who has survived for more than 10,000 years, and a former demigod-level mechanic, Orser Plagg is guarding the enclosed mountain, but has been trying to maintain his strength.
The magic furnace requires the maintenance of the great goblin, and the lifespan of the great goblin is limited. He has to let another great goblin break through every few hundred years, and such a consumption of magic power will also cause his level to drop.
