The Last Alchemist

Soon, Rosen found that Mobius was not alone, but followed by a large group of people.

In the crowd, Rosen saw Veronica, Lilith, magician Lanster, magician Xuma, magician Biggs, etc. Almost all the magicians in Nirogard came, even the two little girls Alice and Garoni came to join in the fun.

The narrow room was crowded.

Rosen looked puzzled: "Uh~ Why are all of you here?"

Veronica stepped forward and pointed at Mobius's wooden generator: "Because of this."

"Isn't this just a generator?" Rosen still didn't understand.

In his opinion, for ordinary people, this thing is of course magical, but for magicians, this thing can only be called cleverly designed, right?

For magicians, lightning should not be a rare thing, right? For example, the principle of the first-level flash spell is to release a high-voltage lightning to attack the opponent. And the flash spell is just the most basic magic, and the magicians present should know it. It's just a simple generator. Is it worth mobilizing so many troops?

As soon as he finished speaking, Mobius shouted: "What do you mean by 'It's just a generator'? Do you know what this means? This thing can directly create lightning! Do you know that creating lightning? This is the forbidden area of ​​the gods! No mortal has ever been able to get involved!"

Lilith's performance was even more exaggerated. She stared at Rosen's face and said seriously: "Rosen, this is an unprecedented feat!"

Rosen was even more puzzled: "Creating lightning. Is this a rare thing? Lilith, isn't there a 1-star magic called Flash? Didn't it also create lightning?"

The magician Xuma came forward, shook his head, and said: "No, that's different. Flash is completely different from this. This generator! To release Flash, you must use the Flash Wand. If there is no magic wand, we can't do anything."

"According to what you said, the Flash Wand can't create lightning?" Rosen remembered the magician Dias he met in Sunderland Town. When that guy released lightning, he held a long stick in his hand.

Xuma still shook his head: "It's not difficult, because the structure of the magic wand is very simple, but if we talk about simplicity, no one here can make a usable magic wand."

"Hmm? I don't quite understand." Rosen was getting more confused.

Xuma turned to look at Lilith: "This matter still needs to be explained by Miss Lind."

Rosen turned to look at Lilith.

Lilith stepped forward and explained: "As far as I know, the structure of the flash wand is divided into two parts. One part is the auxiliary structure, which every magician can make. The other part is the core structure, called the thunder crystal, which is essentially a lightning rune. In the academy, only one person can make a thunder crystal with reliable performance, and that is the alchemist Fleming Ben. But you know, after the collapse of the Tower of Wisdom, the runes have all failed, and the thunder crystal has naturally lost its function."

After saying this, Rosen almost understood: "You mean, the flash spell is actually a rune magic?"

"Yes." Lilith nodded, and added: "In fact, it's not just the flash wand, most of the magic tools that assist in casting spells are more or less related to runes. If the runes fail, most of these magic tools are useless."

"Oh~ So that's it." Rosen suddenly realized.

He always thought that the magicians of Nerogard were the first scientists in this world, but in fact, they were actually bound by runes. They relied too much on the power of magic runes and lost the motivation to explore the rules of the world.

No wonder the magicians in this world, who clearly have the magic power to perceive the world in detail, have stagnated in science and technology; no wonder Bishop Amran said that the gods enslaved mortals through the Tower of Wisdom; no wonder these magicians were alarmed when he made a simple generator.

It turns out that these magicians are all "spiritually castrated".

Because there are better and more convenient ones, there is no need to think independently to solve the problem.

After understanding this, Rosen smiled and said, "You must want to know why this simple device can create lightning, right?"

Everyone nodded, looking at Rosen with eager eyes.

Rosen was not in a hurry to explain: "This question is very complicated and cannot be explained in a short time. I must make some preparations. Let's do this. The day after tomorrow night, I will prepare a speech for everyone to explain how to create lightning. At that time, everyone in Nirogard, whether he is a magician or an ordinary person, as long as he is interested in this issue, can come and listen." Upon hearing this, Mobius and Veronica did not react much, but the magicians looked at each other. Lilith said in surprise: "Can ordinary people listen too?" Rosen nodded: "Of course. Because according to my method, ordinary people can also create lightning. If an ordinary person learns the principle, then when we are ready to make a large generator in the future, this ordinary person can also help a lot." Rosen has been thinking about this for a long time, but he has been very busy during this period and has never had the opportunity. Now that the situation in Nirogard City has begun to stabilize, it is a good time to open people's wisdom and promote science. For him, a scientific lecture is just the first step, and there will be more actions in the future. But when he said this, the magicians' reactions became even bigger. Some frowned, some were surprised, and some were in deep thought.

Rosen discovered this, and after thinking about it carefully, he roughly understood the reason. It's just that new things challenge the old order, and these magicians are superiors in the old order and have vested interests, so they can't accept it psychologically.

Fortunately, this group of magicians is not large in number and not powerful. Even if they all oppose, Rosen can suppress them. Of course, this is the worst option, and Rosen still hopes for a peaceful change.

He raised his finger and pointed at the magician Huma: "Xuma, what do you think about this?"

Huma pondered for a while and said: "Master, I think what you said makes sense. We have too few magicians. If we want to rebuild Nerogard, we must rely on everyone's efforts. Since ordinary people can also help , then letting them join is naturally the best choice.”

This makes sense. Rebuilding Nerogard is the dream of everyone present. When he said this, every magician was thoughtful.

Lilith nodded in approval: "I agree with Huma's statement. The only difference between magicians and ordinary people is magic power. But in the past few days, many things have shown that magic power is not the only way to obtain power. Wisdom is the only way to gain power." yes!"

Other magicians, you look at me, I look at you, but in the end no one stood up to express objections.

Rosen's mind relaxed slightly, and he glanced at Lilith gratefully. He knew very well that Lilith's support was very important for this matter to be accepted peacefully.

Lilith felt Rosen's gaze and smiled at him.

Seeing the worried looks on the faces of some magicians, Rosen thought for a moment and added: "Don't worry, everyone, I know what's appropriate. In the lecture the day after tomorrow, I will only explain the basic principles of creating thunder and lightning, but how to transform the principles into real I won’t mention a word about the available power. I will only impart this kind of valuable knowledge to those core personnel who are loyal and reliable to Nerogard.”

When he said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Lilith nodded in agreement: "I think this is very good. Explaining the principles can open up people's wisdom, stimulate interest, and screen out smart people with outstanding minds from ordinary people. Retaining specific technical details can also ensure the safety of Nerogard. ”

Everyone nodded in agreement with this plan. The sorcerer's expression, which was originally grim, also softened.

Rosen clapped his hands and said, "Then it's settled. It's dinner time now. Let's go to the restaurant to eat."

Naturally, no one would object, so the group of people walked toward the restaurant in a hurry.

On the way, Lilith and Veronica walked to Rosen's side intentionally.

Veronica asked in a low voice: "Rosen, are you doing this to deal with the monster lord?"

Lilith also looked at Rosen, and she obviously guessed it.

Rosen nodded and said to the two women: "I have received definite information that the great lord is not dead. He will definitely come to take revenge in the future, so we must be prepared in advance."

"This guy is really haunting." Veronica frowned, feeling that this monster lord was extremely hateful.

Lilith likes to think about practical issues, and she asked in a low voice: "I looked at your generator carefully, and I found that this thing can indeed create thunder and lightning, but the power to create thunder and lightning does not come out of nothing, but comes from the action of the hand on the wooden handle. Turn. If my idea is right , then if you want to create thunder and lightning that is enough to deal with the big lord, you must first provide this power. Uh~ What I said is a bit confusing. What I mean is that this thing is just a converter of power. We still have to have someone who can release it. Only a strong person with great strength can do it.”

Hearing this, Rosen was once again shocked by Lilith's insight. In the chaotic fog, this woman could always detect the essence of things immediately. If on earth, after formal education, Lilith Si is definitely the kind of super scholar who is beyond reach.

"Well~ you are right, this thing is indeed a power converter. However, you are wrong about one thing. It does not necessarily have to be a person to release huge power, it can also be other things."

Lilith understood at first, and her eyes lit up: "Yes! Why am I confused? There are many, many ways to make the wooden handle rotate. Hmm~~ Maybe it would be good to make a windmill, the kind of windmill that drives a mill. ”

"Haha~ use wind power? Not a bad idea." Rosen laughed.

Lilith was out of control. Following this train of thought, she continued: "No, no, no, the wind is not good. The wind comes and goes and is unstable. The monster lord is coming, and we can't let him stop and wait for the wind. Well. If wind power doesn’t work, maybe we can use water power?”

Rosen nodded: "The water power is also good! There are many waterwheels for irrigating farmland in the Parason Empire in the south. There are also many water-powered mills along the Bishui River."

Unexpectedly, Lilith still shook her head: "No, no, no, I'm afraid the water power is too weak and too gentle, and I'm afraid it can't be transformed into huge power. If the water power is not good, what kind of power should I use?"

She was deep in thought.

Rosen didn't say much. He also wanted to see what idea Lilith would come up with in the end.

Soon, everyone arrived at the restaurant. Here, while everyone was dining, they discussed various problems they encountered with Rosen. No matter what the problem is, as long as you come to Rosen, you can quickly find a solution.

These solutions are often full of indescribable spirituality. They are all things that others dare not think of, but they are indescribably wonderful.

Those who got the answer were either amazed, shocked, or scratching their heads. In short, everyone was convinced.

Mobius had been playing with the simple generator. In his eyes, this little gadget was simply a magical tool. He was having a lot of fun when Veronica's voice suddenly came to his ears: "Old friend, it seems that you have got a new toy."

Mobius smiled: "No, no, no, in fact, I am more looking forward to the speech the day after tomorrow night."

He looked at Rosen not far away and whispered: "I now conclude that if he can't rebuild Nirogard, then no one in the world can do it."

Veronica nodded slightly: "I think the same as you on this point. However, everything has just begun, and no one can predict the future."

"Oh~ What do you mean?" Mobius asked.

Veronica sighed: "In recent days, there are more and more wizard hunters active around the city. Their weapons are also muskets."

Mobius's face darkened. He slowly put down the generator in his hand and said hatefully: "Those crazy people playing with fire!"
