The bone of sin domain is king

Chapter 540 Act IV. Integrated Development Environment

The studio city of Greenwich, if someone sees this city for the first time, he will definitely be shocked by the sight he sees.

There are many chimneys, the smoke from coal and magic boilers is lingering, the houses are uneven, all kinds of signs are colorful, and the dense building complexes are distributed in a grid pattern in this small city, full of the atmosphere of the industrial age.

And the most astonishing thing is that this entire city is built on the back of a gigantic rumbling mechanical beast.

Just like the island cities built on the back of giant sea turtles in those legendary novels, Greenwich stands on the body of this beast. The eight mechanical legs of the beast constantly emit steam and move slowly in a chaotic and regular way. Then, the moving speed fluctuates from time to time, but people living in the city can't feel any vibrations at all.

In fact, the city did not move randomly on the field, but followed a predetermined trajectory, moving around a lake. Perhaps the original intention of the people who built this city was to make the most of the mechanical technology of the Aier group. Show, but did not consider the question of why the city should be moved.

In any case, Rosen, who came to this city from Rainbow Tower two days ago, is now exchanging experiences with several master craftsmen about automatic machine tools.

"To be honest, the production technology of this machine tool is only at the normal level of skilled craftsmen, and it is far less than the meticulous production of master craftsmen. I think the problem lies in the production itself."

Swift said, he took a sip of ale and looked slightly tipsy.

Rosen nodded. Indeed, this machine was processed in Isrur, and the precision of each part was not high, so even the parts made by the machine after molding also had certain accuracy errors.

"So what does Master Swift mean?"

"Give me a week, no, five days, and I will be able to build these core parts. By then, the precision of this machine tool will definitely increase several times."

Swift said, smacking his chest, brimming with confidence.

"It's just that this magic program is really hard to understand. We don't have high magic attainments, so I'm afraid we won't be able to operate this machine freely."

Taylor's face showed embarrassment. He now knows that if he wants to use this automatic machine tool, he must master the method of using the magic program, and this seems to involve the mastery of magic. For Taylor, who doesn't know much about magic For people, it is really difficult.

"It's okay, I've anticipated this situation, so I'm ready."

Rosen took out two more dark crystals from the law field and handed them to the two master craftsmen.

"This is a mobile terminal, you can think of it as a communication tool, but its use is much more than that."

"Oh, I know, this is a mobile terminal. I saw those mages in the square seem to be playing with this."

Taylor was still quite interested in such new gadgets, but the mages refused to show them to him. They said they bought them at a high price due to their connections and regarded them as treasures.

After teaching the pair how to activate it and guiding them through some basic maneuvers while Swift marvels, Rosen clicks on an option in their profile pictures in the upper right corner of their screens.

"This is the latest version of the mobile terminal. Compared with the original version, in addition to the improved interface design, the most important thing is to add this developer mode."

As Rosen said, he clicked on the button with the wrench pattern, and the interface of the entire forum changed, with many operation options at the top and a blank space in the middle.

A cursor is flashing in the upper left corner of the blank screen.

"What is this, where can I enter the log?"

Taylor already knew some knowledge about mobile terminals and forums before, but the interface in front of him still made him feel confused.

"To be precise, this should be called an integrated development environment. Of course, you can also call it a mobile terminal development model."

Using the virtual keyboard, type a word on the screen, which is the Common Language word for "display," Rosen said.

Then, he typed a simple greeting and clicked on one of the many options above.

The picture changed suddenly, and the sentence was displayed on the black screen.

Press Exit, and the interface returns to its original appearance again. This series of actions seems simple at first glance, but Taylor is keenly aware of the mystery involved.

"Does this mean that you can turn these things into, uh, programs in mobile terminals just by writing ordinary words?"

“Yes, that’s exactly what this development model does.”

Rosen nodded.

The initial magic programming does require a deep understanding of magic runes, as well as a certain understanding of spell models, basic magic flow theory, and even a little knowledge of magic crystals as carriers. The threshold is very high. This is exactly the programming method Rosen used in the first place.

Later, with the help of Grantia, Rosen improved it and developed a second-generation programming language by combining many runes. Up to here, you only need to keep in mind the usage of runes And the rules can be used for magic programming.

But in the current generation, it is Rosen who encapsulates common operations into fixed words and sentences. These words and sentences can call runes and start magic in a prescribed way. Up to here, the threshold of magic programming has been greatly reduced. In a sense, as long as a person who is literate can master this skill after a certain period of study.

Rosen knows that simply relying on the research and development capabilities of mages is not enough to make the mobile terminal and the network behind it develop rapidly. Just like in the previous life, it was initially limited to the LAN in the military and university campuses. Only by lowering the threshold of programming, Only by allowing more thoughtful people to join the programming army can the industry develop rapidly.

From Rosen's point of view, the productivity of this world is too backward. Even though there is such a surreal power as magic, it has been shelved by mages, and divine magic is also unknown to the public. To put it simply, , these forces are completely not focused on improving the overall progress of society.

This is actually not difficult to understand. In this world where the feudal system dominates, if ordinary people can free their hands, the authority of noble lords will naturally be easily challenged, so more people will choose policies that fool the people. There have been constant wars, and if the country is not developed by force, it will be easy to be destroyed. Naturally, not many people will focus on improving people's livelihood.

And Rosen is going to fundamentally change all that.
