Twenty Sided Dice

Calm and order were restored in the venue, and the mages returned to their chairs. .しw0. Everyone was waiting for Siegel to speak, but when they looked up, Wendy was still on the stage.

The female mage stared blankly at Siegel with excitement in her eyes. She didn't come back to her senses until a mage below the stage coughed loudly. Her mind suddenly went blank, what should she say next? In an instant, she seemed to be back when she was an apprentice, reprimanded for not remembering magic spells, and huddled in a corner helpless.

"I... oh..." She stammered, and the red cloud began to climb up her neck, ten fingernails scratching the table uneasily. She swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said bluntly with the only remaining courage: "The spell just now was amazing, I forgot what I was going to say. Next time..."

She got off the stage in a hurry and quickly found an empty chair and sat down. The person next to him handed her a cup of tea, and Wendy forgot to thank her, holding the cup and busy sipping.

"Siegel, Siegel," shouted several wizards, all of them young spellcasters. The more stable, wise, and powerful mages remained silent for a while, but they were also eager to hear what Siegel had to say.

Siegel knew it was not a good choice to take office now, and it would be nice to hear more about what other people had to say. But since things had developed to this point, he couldn't back down. So Siegel took the defensive staff, walked to the podium, and took out a large bundle of scrolls from his arms.

"Don't worry, this is not a speech." Siegel said with a smile: "This is the blueprint of Myr's energy core."

Whoops, the place is in chaos. The Mage Lord just demonstrated the power of Myr's energy core, and everyone was shocked by the elemental surge level energy that could be controlled. Whoever can control that kind of energy will be invincible in the spell duel, and no mage is too stupid to understand the reason.

The ten mages who participated in the manufacture of the magic circle got together on the first day of the activation of the Myr Energy Nuclear, trying to deduce the composition of the magic circle. Like countless previous attempts, they couldn't fill in the blanks in the design, or even come up with an alternative. These people are the people who are most in awe of Siegel, they have been sitting quietly in the corner. It is also the only mage who is not excited by the appearance of the scroll.

They glanced at the scroll in Siegel's hand and shook their heads slightly. The scrolls that were taken out were obviously not complete, and the number was not comparable to the drawings they used during construction. Siegel must have reservations, to be expected.

"Don't get excited. What I took out was not a complete design, just a part, but this part is complete." Siegel said: "Myr core has only one pure function, which is to provide elemental energy. If not The mage is involved, and it can't even complete a single Burning Hand spell."

"These scrolls are the application part of the Myr Core. I call it the Elemental Pipeline. Through this Elemental Pipeline, all mages can connect to the Myr Core and get the elemental energy it provides. Whether it's supplying themselves or driving magic Items are fine."

"I've also made a lot of magic items, and I know how difficult it is. Isn't the most troublesome part the core that provides magic energy for the items? Now I've solved this problem - it's a preliminary solution - and now I'm taking it out and sharing it with you."

Siegel handed the entire stack of scrolls to the mage closest to him, and asked him to send them. It turns out that each scroll is exactly the same, and the dragon language is densely written on it, which is used to explain the function, use method and manufacturing principle of the element pipeline. After the last person got the scroll, Siegel officially began to speak.

"Today, I am delighted to join you all in this great gathering that will be of historical significance. To be honest. I don't know most of you, and only a few of you know me, but that doesn't stop us from being together today. Because 2500 years ago, a group of mages came to the New World with hope and love for magic. In the wilderness outside the deep water port in the north, they started to build a magic school and called themselves Union mages. Did they think about it? There will be Waterdeep, and the Three Peaks Tower will be the greatest magical building in the New World? I have no way of knowing. But I can be sure that in a hundred and fifty years, even if the Three Peaks Tower falls, the descendants of these people will still be Haven't lost faith,"

"Master Wendy talked about the various temptations of the association just now. Some people are ashamed, some people are angry. Some people are envious. There is no right or wrong. On the road to becoming a mage, everyone faces all kinds of temptations all the time. When you Have you ever dreamed of being the sun when your fingertips first shined? I have. When you put goblins to sleep with sand, have you ever dreamed of making the world obey? I have. When you Chant the incantation, open the door to the other world, and let the angels and demons sing for you together. When you whisper soft words of temptation in your ear, do you have a moment's temptation? I have had it with you."

"Look at the people around you now, there are no madmen, no madmen, and no people who have fallen because of heaven and hell. Everyone swallowed the temptation, generated reason, and strengthened their beliefs. Everyone is a mages of the Federation, we Has its own quest and pride. Not the other, but the only one, magic."

"Whether the path of the Mages Association is right or wrong, it doesn't matter. What matters is that it survived, survived for thousands of years. I didn't join the Mages Association because the conditions they offered were not good, but Because they think that we can't live without them! I don't believe it, I don't believe it at all. The new continent is a new hope, and the seniors came here with such ideals. Has this hope been cut off? Never."

"Someone will say, oh, Siegel, you are both a mage and a lord, why do you speak on behalf of the Federation?" Siegel paused, looked at the thirty mage in front of him, and said with a smile: "Because I am stronger than you."

"Six years ago I disembarked for the first time, and a year later I made a fortune in adventure as a knight squire, so four and a half years ago I was able to knock on the door of the Mages Association, become an apprentice, and study in the form of a salon Magic. Eight months later I became a trainee mage and then fought in the Orc Wars."

"When I came back from the war, by chance, I was given the title of full mage and a baron at the same time. The Council of Masked Lords of Waterdeep let out a bait, and I swallowed it, so I had Heimland and Myr. Maybe I came into everyone's attention at this time."

"After a few more years, I was twenty-two years old, and I stood here to show everyone my magical ability: I am stronger than you. When I can't speak with my age, qualifications, and connections in the Federation, I can only show strength. I don't need you to fear, obey, or alienate, I just want an opportunity to pass my thoughts on to everyone."

"I have always lived in the castle. From my room, the market of Myr City is not far away. I can see all kinds of people, rushing for life every day. What can I see from the Three Peaks Pagoda There is only a powerful magic enchantment, and the rolling mist of magic blocks all prying eyes. We need the mage tower. But we don't want to be trapped in the mage tower, because outside the tower is the new world, where hope is, if you can't see it, So what's the difference with the Mage Association? It cost me a total of 4,450 gold coins to become a mage apprentice and a trainee mage. I remember clearly, it was a considerable expense, and it was a sturdier than any obstacle. the high wall that separates us from them."

"The difference between us and them is a terrible idea, and I have a deep feeling about it. I in the spell laboratory and I in the lord's hall seem to live in two worlds. Erneng nuclear cost close to half a million gold coins, and on the other hand, I need to refer to a dispute caused by a chicken worth two coppers."

"If you give these two arguing five thousand gold coins each, will they also become wizards?" Siegel said, "Don't laugh, no one knows about this. I'm a sailor, and you. You What? I noticed one thing. Of the six people who participated in the apprenticeship with me, two eventually became full-fledged mages, and the other died of a magic experiment during the internship. That is to say, almost half of them were able to cast magic. You can tell whether your intelligence is normal or not, and it is not difficult to judge whether you can read or not. Therefore, it is much easier to select a mage apprentice than a priest apprentice. After the initial selection, can I think that 10,000 gold coins can produce a mage?"

"Are you delusional?" The necromancer Shelley snorted: "The mage is not a vegetable, how can he be so casual?"

Siegel looked at her. Eyes radiate confidence. His voice was unhurried and audible: "Using the element pipeline, within the envelope of the Myr core, the cost of magic is only a little higher than that of iron. I can't get 10,000 gold coins for every two scholars. But I am confident in reducing the cost a hundredfold!"

"The energy supply of magic experiments, magic items, and protective enchantments, my Myr energy core can continue to meet their needs. As long as fifty mages are born from here, my cost will be recovered; When a hundred mages appeared, the association basically recovered its vitality. If there were a thousand mages, even the association would be shocked."

"I know some rumors. They say that I have great ambitions, standing on the ruins of the Federation, standing on the sick body of Waterdeep City, and using powerful elemental magic to make the New World tremble. I would say to these people, you are too underestimated. I am."

"With you or without you, I will use the Myr core to train new mages. I will also teach knights, soldiers and peasants to cast spells. No matter who wants to stop me, I will There is almost infinite energy against it, and I am sure I will succeed!"

"But I have one hope that the new mages don't have too much of my style and influence. Just as the Myr core is the crystallization of the joint efforts of multiple spellcasting systems, so should the mages. The Federation is exactly the With the meaning of union, anyone has the opportunity to become a mage. The collapse of the Three Peaks Pagoda has made us lose our walls, but we also have the opportunity to embrace the world. It was a mistake to embrace a careerist like the Knox Commonwealth, but we Don't lose courage. Who can't fail to cast spells and cause an accident? Learn from it and move on. So, I hope my colleagues in the Federation can help me, brainstorm ideas, and train more mages, mages from the federation , there are mages who are tolerant, collaborative, and able to continuously promote the progress of magic."

"I want you to stay in Heimland and help me make this dream come true."

Siegel finished speaking, licked his lips, and waited silently. (To be continued.)
