Chapter 147 Admission (10)

Danica said: "So, this Kingdom of Solomon will be watched by many parties." With so many valuable resources, if there is no power to protect it, the resources will not bring wealth, but a catastrophe.

Neos said: "But fortunately, the Kingdom of Solomon has an outstanding founding king. Under his leadership, the gold coins exchanged for minerals and crystal mines by the Kingdom of Solomon did not use them as a luxury enjoyment or a palace, but to enhance the strength of the army and consolidate national defense. At the same time, the king also knew very well that by selling resources, he could not become a powerful country, or even make the greatest profit, and developing the processing industry is the right way. Until now, the Kingdom of Solomon has become the largest steel and copper ingot producer of the human race."

Danica said approvingly: "This is indeed an outstanding king, a person with a long-term vision."

"At the same time, he is also a man without ambition." Neos said in a slightly mocking tone. "In fact, the Kingdom of Solomon is much stronger than its neighbors in military strength, but their army has never taken a step forward in national borders, because their king knew that once Solomon fell to others for excuses, to be precise, it was given an excuse for the Holy See. The Holy See would quickly erase the Solomon clan with a thunderous blow and completely occupy this land. Faced with the Holy See, their policies of strong power and military strength were of no use."

"This..." Danica didn't know what to say.

Neos was very satisfied with Danica's expression, and he said: "In this world, strength, or powerful force, is the one, and the so-called wisdom and strategy are just the zero behind it. But no matter what, Solomon's prudence and understanding of the current affairs allowed them to avoid the disaster of destruction of the country. On the contrary, they also have a certain right to speak."

Danica remembered a question: "As you say, the Kingdom of Solomon should try to avoid all disputes, so why do Meins and Mekas still involve whether they support the Magic Empire?"

"Aphro tells you that she supports the restoration of the Magic Empire?" Neos sneered, "This has nothing to do with the Magic Empire. The empire that existed eight thousand years ago was just a cover brought out by Aphro. The dispute is essentially the dispute between the power of the church and the kingdom, specifically the issue of which priority is the right or the right of the church in the human kingdom. Because the kingdom of the Light was divided by the Holy See, of course the power of the church was higher than the right of the kingdom. But after so many years, the Holy See has shown signs of decline, especially compared with the iron-blooded queen of the elf court, the concessions and compromises of the Holy See made many human kingdoms realize the weakness of the Holy See. It is in this context that the kingdom should be equal to the right of the church, and even surpass the right of the church slowly emerged."

Danica asked: "The Holy See did not want to suppress this atmosphere? This is obviously very unfavorable to the Holy See."

Neos said: "The Holy See of Light, but he is too shackles. Even if he has strong strength, he does not do whatever he wants."

After digesting what Neos told her, Danica asked, "How do you know so much?"

Neos said: "The library provides introductions to the customs and historical materials of various countries, and they can be found."

Danica shook her head and said, "I know this. What I ask is, why do you understand this? Everything you do is not commensurate with your identity." Neos claims to be a nobleman in a small city-state, but his confidence and attitude towards doing things are not like a small place, without any discomfort or shyness.

Neos said meaningfully: "Danica, we are the same kind of people, and we have seen them before. You will know it naturally when you figure it out."

Danica looked at Neos' gray eyes and said, "Okay, I get it."

Neos's answer did not satisfy Danica. Her eyes already had the intention of expelling guests. Neos smiled and left tactfully, leaving Danica continued to look at the stars in the sky late at night.

...

According to the prompts given by Aphro, the first step to systematically learn magic is to understand the history of magic development. This is relatively easy. Danica found a book called "A Brief History of Magic" in the library.

According to the introduction in this magic history book, the human race initially discovered this strange and powerful supernatural ability in various monsters. Gradually, some people found that they could also use magic, but magic at that time was more similar to witchcraft, and it was attributed to the category of mysticism. People at that time did not think that magic ability could be obtained through learning and training, but was considered a talent for communicating with "gods". The so-called "gods" do not specifically refer to, but to the wilderness gods or ancestor gods.

This stage lasted for quite a while, because the human civilization was only in its infancy at that time, and there was no complete record of history. Later generations made inferences over tens to millions of years through excavation of remains.

With the development of human civilization and the growth of strength, the scope of human activities began to gradually expand. During this period, wars between various tribes were indispensable, which objectively promoted the understanding and learning of primitive magic. However, the real fundamental progress in the understanding of magic was caused by contact with the elves.

The elves are a natural magic race. Almost all elves have magical talents, and the probability of magical talents appearing in the human race is about one in ten thousand. Although the elves had a rough understanding of magic at that time, at least, they believed that magic could be learned.

During that period, there were only four branches of magic, namely the Earth, Water, Wind and Fire four-type magic. At that time, the magician believed that the four-type magic corresponded to the four-type elements, and even extended the elemental gods and elemental worlds. This theory ruled for a long time. In order to find the legendary elemental world, the magician designed many exquisite magic experiments and developed many magic theories.

The four-system element theory is regarded as a criterion by all human magicians. People have developed many magic from other factions in this theory, and the infamous undead magic system is also one of them.

Thirty thousand years ago, the Elf Empire was established. This was the first time that this world was integrated by a stable and powerful political body, and the first time that a great unification appeared. After thousands of years of war, the civilization of the intelligent race began to flourish, including magic civilization. It was also during the Elf Empire that a magician named Gebai proposed a new theory. There was no four-system magic element at all. There was only one type of magic element. Four-system magic was just a different manifestation of this magic element.

This statement was initially regarded as a heresy, and the construction of the four-system magic theory has become more perfect, leaving only "a few dark clouds are still shrouded in the clear sky". All the magicians even thought that they had learned the truth of the universe. At this time, a young man appeared and said that your theory was wrong, which was simply a joke.

Subsequently, the four-system magic element theory and the single magic element theory began to have a fierce dispute for tens of thousands of years. The magicians of the faction were all designing and arranging various magic experiments to prove the absurdity and error of the other party's theory. In this process, the single magic element theory gradually developed and gained more and more recognition from more and more people. By the time of the Great Magic Empire, the single magic element theory had occupied the orthodox position of the magic theory, and many related theories were developed through experiments.

Now the magician believes that the so-called single magic element does not exist in real life, but exists in a form of "energy", and manifests itself as different magical effects through different combinations and arrangements of energy.

Earth-type magic is considered to change the "potential energy" of matter. In simple terms, it is deformation, so earth-type magic is sometimes called shaping magic. Earth-type magic has very little lethality at low levels. After all, changing the shape of an object is not an easy task. A preliminary earth-type magician may only play the trick of breaking the spoon in the air. But once he grows into a high-level magician, the lethality of earth-type magic will become extremely great. It is not an exaggeration to say that one magic destroys a city. There are many such large-scale, high-destructive magic in earth-type magic.

Water magic and fire magic are a pair, and what changes is the "internal energy" of matter. Interestingly, water magic is the most unworthy of its name. Water magicians cannot control the water flow or any liquid at all. What they can do is to cool down and kill enemies through low temperatures. Correspondingly, fire magic cannot create a fireball out of thin air. In fact, due to the conservation of matter, no magician can create anything out of thin air. The lethality of fire magic mainly comes from the burning of high temperatures.

Finally, there is Danica's specialized wind magic. Wind magic changes the "kinetic energy" of matter, which means making objects move. For wind magicians, the most practical killing medium is the lightest gas, or air. The air can be seen everywhere, and it is not difficult to control it with mental power. Therefore, the first magic of wind magicians is the light wind technique, which makes a ball of air flutter. If you want to increase lethality, you can start at speed and form a wind blade by squeezing and accelerating the air.

After turning the book "A Brief History of Magic", Danica looked a little strange, and she seemed to be familiar with some of the nouns mentioned in it. Danica did not expect that such a world with powerful magical power would be so "scientific".

Danica intends to try her new theory, she opens the book and spreads it on the table, concentrates her mental power on a page of the book, and wants to turn it on. According to the theory in this book, she should be able to move any object, not just air.

This process is much more troublesome than Danica thought.

When Danica locked her mental power on the page of the book and planned to turn it on, she felt a strong pressure. She seemed to be turning over not Yipai, but a mountain, and she couldn't move at all. Is her understanding wrong? Danica tried hard to squeeze her mental power and persisted for a long time before she could make the page of the book move, but she still didn't open it.

Danica retracted her mental power, collapsed on the chair, panting and rubbing the sweat on her forehead. It seemed that it was much more difficult to give solid kinetic energy than she thought. She waved her hand, and a breeze blew, and she easily turned the page of the book over. It was a little easier to control the air.

"What do you think of the four-element system?"

A sudden sound scared Danica, and she looked back and it turned out to be Neos.

Danica stroked her chest and said, "I'm scared to death, why are you elusive?"

Neos sat in the seat next to her and continued to ask, "What do you think of the four elements system?"

Danica was stunned for a moment before realizing that what he was talking about was the four-type magic element theory. Danica raised the "A Brief History of Magic" in her hand and said, "Why is it useless for me to say it? Now the orthodox statement is the single element theory."

Neos' expression was a little strange, as if he was a little sad. He insisted on asking, "What do you think? Do you don't have your own opinion?"

Danica said, "It's really not. Why am I doing? I'm not a magic theory, so what's the best way to use!"

Neos said with a slight sarcastic sentence: "You can see it openly."

What happened to this guy today? It seems that the day when Danica had the richest expression after meeting him. Danica closed the book and said, "By the way, there is a question I want to ask. This book only introduces the history of the development of human magic, and does not mention the elves. In theory, the magic civilization of the elves should be more advanced than us. What do they think of magic elements?"

Neos sneered and said, "Those guys with sharp ears think there is no magic element at all. The process of magic casting is to use mental power to pry magic rules."

Danica asked a very mentally retarded question at this time: "Which theory is correct?"

Neos glanced at Danica with contempt and said, "The so-called theories are invented by people to describe a thing. If you say something wrong, it is actually wrong. If you say something right, it is all right, it is just whether it is perfect."

Seeing that Danica was a little confused, Neos despised him even more, he continued: "For example, there is a cup here, we can say it is a 'cup', or it can say 'gss', 'tasse', '', 'co uv u', etc. The descriptions are all correct, but in fact they do not explain the essence of the cup."

Seeing that Neos was going to make a long speech, Danica hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I know, isn't it the relationship between 'name' and 'reality'? As for philosophy, I just want to know that theory is useful."

Neos sneered and said, "You are not like a magician at all. In the past, magicians could not only cast magic, but a profession full of wisdom and knowledge."
