Talking to smart people really saved a lot of time and effort. Just by hearing Kabambai's words, Lin knew that he understood the mysteries of algebra. However, it was still unclear if they would think that this expansion was the end of mathematics. It was like the granddaughter of a great magician thinking that she was proficient in mathematics just because she knew four operations.
Using this as an extension, there were also numerous unsolved mysteries in trigonometric functions, calculus, and various number series. Pure mathematics was a study with no end. Are you mentally prepared for this? Fascinated. Keke keke.
A certain person's strange laughter caused the God's Kingdom and the Abyss to shake. In this world, there were only a few mortals who could sense it, and the Lich sitting next to a certain person was one of them. But most of the existences who sensed it did not understand the meaning behind the shaking. It was the joy of a certain nameless existence. He was the only one and everything.
In fact, in the past, there were many travelers from other worlds in the Lost Land. Naturally, there would be knowledge from other worlds that took root in the Lost Land. After getting rid of the weeds and keeping the weeds and adapting to the environment of the Lost Land, it developed into a seemingly native knowledge that was passed down. Among those people, there were also people who came from worlds with more advanced technology than Earth, so it was not difficult for them to research mathematics.
But no one was like a certain transmigrator, who systematically brought the knowledge from his hometown to the land and spread it widely. Other than the transmigrator seniors who saw the knowledge from their hometown as a secret and the foundation of their lives in the land, only a small number of people knew about it and spread it to the world. The most important thing was that the environment was different.
For example, in this era, the magicians saw the research and inheritance of knowledge as their responsibility. This was unprecedented in the long history of the land. Countless secrets buried by time were dug out from the dust. The people living in the present were constantly exploring new knowledge and passing it on to the next generation.
It was in this atmosphere that a certain person from Earth could spread the religion called 'science'. If it was a few eras ago, hiding was his only way to survive. Otherwise, he could only be burned at the stake and be loved by the gods. At that time, there were no gods in the land of the old era who were willing to accept this dirty soul.
But the deeper meaning behind all this, a certain person did not know. He was just happy that he would have a job to keep. Moreover, he was teaching a group of people, not one or two particularly monstrous geniuses.
This meant that he could use the excuse of taking into account the progress of the other idiots to slowly release the knowledge he had grasped. He was not like the monster beside him who had emptied his stomach in just a few days. Then, he would have to face a bunch of questions that he didn't have the answers to, and he would be tortured one after another.
I really want to say to her: Sister! If I'm really that talented, I would've carried a nuclear bomb with me long ago, and I would've been able to throw one at any time and blow it up.
As a person, a small stream flows slowly is the way to go. What's the big deal about draining the pond to catch all the fish?
However, now that he had taken care of his own matters, he still needed to think of a way to help Fen. It was a taboo for people to be idle. When idle, it was easy for their imagination to run wild. Leaving Lich idle was a sign that the world was about to be conquered. "Mr. Kabanbai," Lin said, "my partner, Fanny, is a Lich. She's not yet a Grand Magus in the Feist district, but she's very knowledgeable. I believe that she can also become an excellent teacher in the academy you've founded, teaching the advanced magic that few people know. "
The Lich, who was being flattered, bowed politely. She didn't put on an arrogant expression, but she wasn't a bootlicker who was asking for a reward or craving a decent job. She was neither servile nor overbearing. To put it bluntly, she didn't care.
However, looking at the beautiful woman who was being introduced by a certain person, except for Kabanbai's granddaughter, who was gnashing her teeth in hatred but didn't dare to act rashly, the others all seemed to be in a dilemma. Because he couldn't figure out what these people were thinking, Lin didn't continue to promote. Instead, he quietly waited for their reaction. At this moment, if he guessed wrong or said the wrong thing, it would only backfire.
A moment later, Kabanbai said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Tripwood. Of course, I would also like to invite Mr. Tikal to teach in my academy. But you mentioned earlier that you didn't intend to teach Language P. So, I don't know what knowledge I can invite Mr. Tikal to teach. "
This kind of question made a certain person speechless. He couldn't help Fen decide what to teach, right? Although if he asked, that person wouldn't refuse, and there was a high chance that Kabanbai would also agree. But this way, a certain Lich's enthusiasm would definitely be different from her taking the initiative to ask.
When the time came, would it become that he had to prepare the materials himself? Fen would just go up to the podium and speak. This kind of thing where two people taught one course, but in reality, one person was responsible for two courses. A certain person definitely wouldn't do something like digging a hole for himself! Thus, Lin only tried his best to put on an innocent expression, and also looked at the Lich who hadn't spoken yet.
The Lich, who was being looked at with anticipation, couldn't insist on playing dumb to the end. She could only say impatiently, "Alright, don't look at me like that. If you want to learn, I can teach you some knowledge about life. "
Lin followed the meaning of the words and praised loudly, "Yes! Knowledge about life. In this regard, I can guarantee that there is no one more suitable than her. "
That was what a certain someone said, but the expressions of the veteran Great Mages became even more worried. This also reminded Lin Xiang of how many mages in the Mystic Lands would use the excuse of studying life to create a bunch of troublesome things like undead, undead, and resurrected creatures. Even without these things, the most common thing mages who studied life would create when they lost control was … the plague.
Also known as the Black Death, there had been several epidemics in the history of the Mystic Lands. Not all of them were natural, but some were man-made. And when it was man-made, it wasn't always the researcher who released the plague to kill a bunch of people in revenge. More often than not, the initial idea was to save more people, but in the end, people died.
However, knowledge was neutral. Whether it was good or bad, it was in the hands of the user. So what Fen intended to teach, was it really not attractive to mages who were seeking more and more profound knowledge? Thus, Lin asked carefully, "Sir Kabanbai, are you really not interested in the knowledge that Fen has grasped?"
"No, sir, it should be the opposite. I, as well as other mages like me, would certainly desire everything that Sir Tikal has imparted to us. But what I am worried about is, what if the learner misuses it? "
"Oh, that's a small matter." Lin said with a sudden realization.
Kabanbai still had a wry smile on his face, "This is not a small matter, sir. If the learner is not human, it is hard to imagine how much damage it will cause. "
"In other words, you are worried about the learner, not the learner."
Although the white-haired great mages didn't say anything, they still nodded silently.
"If that's all you are worried about, then there is no big problem. The solution is simple, Fen will be in charge of teaching. As for who can come to learn, ask the Academy to help select them, or even ask the Association to step in. In short, they need to obtain a certificate before they can come to the Lich's life course. I remember that when the Association imparted knowledge of forbidden spells, there was also a related review mechanism. I think it would be better to use similar rules. "
The Society of Sorcerers' attitude towards forbidden spells was, in fact, a strategic level magic. It was to manage and not ban it. In addition to the large fee for those who wished to learn this magic, the Association would also conduct a qualification review for those who wished to learn it.
Generally speaking, the review would be to see if they had committed any crimes, and if they had committed too many crimes to be recorded. Basically, as long as they weren't a mage with a bad reputation and could afford to pay, they could still learn it.
This kind of review wouldn't be so strict that the applicant had to have the virtue of a saint to be able to learn the forbidden knowledge. In fact, mages were very self-aware, and there was no such thing as a truly virtuous and kind person. The only thing that truly restrained these mages was if they misused the forbidden spells they had learned. There were official records, and they could be traced back to them.
And according to the Cupwood family's suggestion, a similar qualification check for everyone who wished to learn magic from the liches seemed … not impossible. Moreover, rather than letting the Lich take in random disciples, it would be better to keep an eye on him.
However, just as Kabambai was about to nod and formally invite them, Fen raised her hand to stop the archmages. She said, "Let me say this first. The knowledge I will impart will not include the Lich's Transformation Ritual. Whether it is now or in the future, I will not teach anything similar. "
Everyone present was confused by the Lich's restrictions. Fen wasn't so arrogant that she wouldn't say anything. Instead, she explained, "I used to have subordinates of the Lich, and I learned a few things from simple conversations with them. First, every Lich's Transformation Ritual is different, or rather, the details are different. This means that the complete Lich's Transformation Ritual is not much different from exposing one's weakness. "
To be honest, everyone was able to understand what was going on. No one would voluntarily expose their weakness.
However, Fen still continued, "Second, the Transformation Ritual is very cruel. If it's not cruel to oneself, it's cruel to others. There is no such thing as a happy and easy way to become a Lich. "
Actually, from the few words left behind in the past, everyone could come to this conclusion. It was just that today, someone who had 'experienced' it clearly stated it.
"Third, transforming into a Lich will cause one to lose part of their human nature. Perhaps the Lich are not completely evil, but this is one of the reasons why they walk into the darkness. To walk out of the darkness requires not only hard work, but also a bit of luck. If you just want to extend your life, there are many ways to do so. Furthermore, even if you transform into a Lich, there is no guarantee of eternal life. "
This was another person's experience. Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Finally, what I am going to talk about has nothing to do with the Lich, but it is very important. It is very important to the Land of Mystery, and to all Homo Sapiens' civilizations. This is also my research. Recently, I am at the stage where I can make a summary of it, and I have thought about how to make it public. Since there is such an opportunity, I will talk about it in class. "
"That would be great, Sir Tikal. It is my honor to invite you to teach at my school. "
"Just call me Fen Ni. I don't like to use the surname Tikal. "Fen said seriously.
