City of Silver, Star-Moon Tower.
"Sir, why are you back? Nothing unusual happened recently. "
Oz, who temporarily replaced Jean to monitor the Arcana Eye, was surprised to see Jean walking out of the portal. It was no secret that Jean often stayed in Ellington to do research these days.
Although the sorcerers in the Star-Moon Tower were very curious about what Jean was doing, Jean never told them. He said he was doing research, but in fact, he was just freeloading at Tang En's place. How could he tell his apprentices about this kind of thing?
Jean and Oz always kept at least one magic letter between them. Once the Arcana Eye found something unusual, it would send a message to Jean to return to the Star-Moon Tower, and then take the other sorcerers out to solve the problem. When there was no message, Jean basically stayed in Ellington all the time.
Oz complained about this, but as a disciple, what could he say to his teacher?
Jean shook his head, "It's best if there's nothing unusual. I came back this time to announce something. Help me prepare the Arcana Sky Projection."
Oz was stunned and looked at Jean in surprise, "What is it? You need the Arcana Sky Projection? "
The City of Silver usually had a few channels to release information. The simplest was the bulletin board model used by the Adventurer's Guild and the Mercenary's Guild. Usually, it was used for less urgent information for those who wanted to read it. The information delivered was also more targeted.
The second was the broadcast mode, which was used to broadcast indiscriminately within a certain range through the effect of wind elements. It was usually used for spreading news in certain activities or under certain special circumstances, similar to community radio.
Then there was the element projection mode, which was used to control elements to form a huge text message in the sky and stay in the sky for several days, so that everyone in the City of Silver could see it. This mode was usually used to convey more important announcements, such as the change of routes in the City of Silver, or major research breakthroughs, or the creation of a powerful spell. Therefore, many people who had just arrived at the City of Silver were always surprised to see the text made of various elements floating in the sky above the City of Silver.
Finally, there was the Arcana Sky Projection mode, which was only available to Jean. It was also the symbol of his identity as the master of the Arcana Society in the City of Silver and the Star-Moon Tower. This mode was rarely used. Since the establishment of the City of Silver, it had only been used two or three times, each time for extremely important events.
The first time was when the City of Silver had just been established, and they needed to concentrate their efforts to clean up the chaos creatures left behind by the Prandal Empire.
The second time was when the Irus Empire was divided. The war on the continent was on the verge of breaking out. Jean believed that the world had not yet recovered from the second Chaos invasion and that war would only destroy the world. Therefore, he changed the route and arrived above the battlefield. With the deterrence of the City of Silver, he forcibly stopped the war that was about to break out and protected the fragile peace of the world. Unfortunately, the division of the Irus Empire was already a foregone conclusion.
The third time was when Jean won a bet with Angus, so he wanted to tell everyone the good news. Yes, in his eyes, winning a bet with his old friend was as important as a world war.
All in all, the Arcana Sky Projection was the highest standard message transmission mode in the City of Silver. It would not be used unless it was an important message.
That was why Oz was so surprised when he heard Jean's words.
Jean thought for a moment and said, "It's something that might change the City of Silver and the future of the whole Prandal Empire."
Although it was a bit exaggerated, the actual meaning was not too far off.
Sorcerers working in schools and teaching basic magic knowledge might seem like an attempt by the City of Silver to lift the ban on magic and reintegrate into the world. However, Jean knew that people with foresight would understand that the significance of this matter was far more than what it seemed to be on the surface.
A new era of magic was about to begin.
However, Oz did not know that. After hearing Jean's words, the poor white-haired sorcerer was shocked and frightened. "Teacher?! Is the army of chaos coming back?! "
"Oh, you misunderstood."
Jean slapped his forehead. "I'm just helping someone to send out a recruitment notice."
"A recruitment notice?!"
Oz was confused. "Using the Arcana Sky Projection to send out a recruitment notice?! And a sorcerer?! "
What a joke!
Back then, it was Jean who set the rule that sorcerers would always be neutral and not get involved in any political or military affairs. This ensured the transcendent status of the City of Silver, and because of this, sorcerers were almost never hired.
However, today, Jean, the owner of the City of Silver and the leader of the Star-Moon Tower, said that he was going to use the Arcana Sky Projection to send out a recruitment notice for someone?!
Oz felt that his worldview was about to be completely turned upside down.
There was a saying on Earth that said that technology that was born before a person was 18 years old should exist in this world. Technology that was born between the age of 18 and 60 was incomparably great and would change the world. Technology that was born after a person was 60 years old was unreasonable and anti-human.
This principle was also applicable in the Prandal Empire.
Oz was born just after the second war of the Chaos invasion. He was one of the first batch of newborns born after the war. What was more fortunate was that he was discovered to have magic talent when he was young. Therefore, he was lucky enough to be discovered by Jean and came to the City of Silver to become his disciple.
Therefore, Oz had long been used to the rules set by Jean. These rules had been in operation for more than 160 years and had always maintained the stability of the City of Silver. But today, the creator of these rules was going to break them!
Oz was a little shocked at first, and then he felt a sense of fear that he could not adapt to. It was an indescribable feeling, but it did exist.
"Oz."
Jean considered his thoughts and said to him, "Do you know why you haven't been able to reach the Supreme level for so long despite your great talent?"
Oz shook his head.
"That's because you put a shackle on your heart and your thoughts."
Jean waved his hand and said, "Because you think you can't touch the law, because it's the origin of the world, because it's the domain of God, so you can't touch the law. Because you think you can't catch up with my footsteps, so you've been in the same place. If a Magician can't completely control his own will, if he can't challenge and break through the limit, then he will never be able to cross that boundary. "
Jean's words enlightened Oz. Oz instantly felt a chill from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet. He broke out in a cold sweat. "I've learned something, Teacher."
Jean asked Oz, "Do you know why I've been staying in Ellington recently?"
"I don't know."
"That's because I saw another path for Magicians there."
"In Ellington, Magicians used their own power to find their true place in this society. They no longer destroyed, no longer destroyed, but created!"
"That's right! Magicians were there, using their own power to create one incredible product after another! Not ordinary magic props, but ingenious carriers of magic to ordinary people so that more people can enjoy the convenience of magic! "
"We all know that magic is very powerful, but no one has really been able to popularize magic to every ordinary person. But Tang En did it, and he's doing it better and better!"
"Compared to him, as the master of the City of Silver and the leader of the Prandal Magicians, I have a greater obligation to do this. But I know I can't do it. I can't surpass him in this aspect. I have to admit that his appearance is the fortune of this world, a gift from God."
The sloppy Jean's eyes were very bright. "Tang En showed me a new path. If this attempt goes smoothly, those Magicians who are limited by their talent and can't continue to become stronger will find their rightful place in this world."
Although Prandal was very peaceful now, it was still a world where the strong were respected. Strength was everything. There were many people in this world who were talented as Magicians, but there were not many who could really become powerful Magicians. Most of them were like Warriors, Rangers, Assassins, and other Prophets, who stopped at the Gold level.
Magicians who could cross the threshold to the Grandmaster level were one in ten thousand. But those who could reach the Grandmaster level were usually able to reach the Extraordinary level. But to reach the Supreme level from the Extraordinary level was less than one in a hundred, let alone from the Supreme level to the Legendary level. It was not only a comprehensive test of one's talent, physical fitness, and other aspects, but also limited by one's luck and understanding.
In the City of Silver, only Jean stood at the top of the pyramid.
The distribution of power in the City of Silver was made up of such a sharp triangle.
Therefore, at the bottom of the pyramid, where the large number of beginner Magicians were placed, was always a big problem.
Because of the special status of their profession, they would not do jobs that were too lowly, but there were not many noble jobs in the city for them. There were always dirty jobs that had to be done.
These Magicians below the Gold level were not too strong compared to the real strong, but compared to the average Prophets, their destructive power was unexpectedly high.
If left unchecked, a Gold-level magician could easily destroy a city. Hollowing out a city would not waste too much magic power.
So they had to be restrained.
In the past, Jean used his own power to guide and restrain the Magicians, but after all, there were many limitations to personal beliefs, so this method had to be changed.
Now, Jean finally found a suitable method.
In Tang En's place, the birth of the magic machines showed Jean a different, brand-new path. In front of that path was a bright and glorious future for Magicians!
It was the beginning of a true, great magic civilization!
