Although it was said that the drawings of the new project would be handed over to Goola before leaving, the drawings were still not completed until the cargo ship was filled with the materials scheduled to be used. No matter how carefully the possible problems were thought out in advance,
Problems that were not thought of in practice are like mushrooms after the rain, they appear out of nowhere.
So the plan was still being reviewed and revised, and it was naturally impossible to deliver it for proofing. Polu was not in a hurry. The scheduled use time of this thing would be at least half a year. And since it had become a teaching project, the matter was out of the question.
No matter how anxious you are, it will be of no use.
So before leaving, Geola stood on the pier, his face full of happiness of escaping. Polu really couldn't bear to see him feel the feeling of being pigeon-holed, so he simply reminded him: "The track rolling mill should just add a few more
Taiwan, right? There are not too many things. At least the blast furnace cannot be shut down again. It would be too troublesome to move back and forth. There is also a crusher. Let’s not change it for now. Build it in large quantities first. When we come back, we can solve the traffic problem on the island.
one time."
Geola only wished that he had not been here today.
From Tower Island to the dock of Star Island, it only takes half a day for the cargo ship to sail at full speed. As the distance gradually approached, Polu finally got his wish this time and saw the eye-catching black hole hanging over Star Island.
"Is this the legendary space door?"
Zhu Yiwei, who usually answered questions with a calm demeanor, looked serious. She stood up straight, a dignified air surrounding her: "Yes, this is the space door. This is the world's defense against outside invasion.
It is the forefront, and it is also the weight that we mages put ourselves on the altar to weigh ourselves against."
"Altar? Weigh yourself? How do you say this?"
At this point, Polu realized an almost ignored point: "Wait, this world? Are there other worlds?"
"You have a lot of questions, let me answer them one by one. Anyway, there is nothing else to do now."
"First of all, of course there are other worlds, otherwise summoning spells cannot be used. Of course, since the discovery of this big hole, summoning spells have reached a consensus among the Xingdao mage group - their use is prohibited and avoided
Make more holes in the space wall."
"There was once a conjecture that this big hole was carved out by summoning spells at the weakest part of the space wall. Now let alone advanced spells such as cross-border portals, even long-distance spells in the personal world
Teleportation has also been included in the list of dangers."
"So has this suspicion been confirmed?"
"No. No one dared to do this experiment. The only thing we know is that after banning summoning and teleportation, the big hole no longer expanded."
"Then you used a large teleportation gate to bring us over from Red Mountain. Wouldn't it also have an impact here?"
"The experimental conclusion is that it has an impact, but it is very weak. It is like opening a door in a house. If the door is open, the opening and closing action of the inner door will have a certain impact on the door, but it is very weak. If there are too many doors
, constantly opening and closing back and forth will cause the door to vibrate, so teleportation in the personal world is still prohibited, and only necessary teleportations approved by the Supreme Council can be used."
"Speaking of which, I'm particularly curious about the principle of teleportation. This thing... is very counter-intuitive."
"Only when you become a high-level mage can you possibly understand this thing. Anyway, I haven't learned it yet. Naturally, there is no way to tell you the principle. And the teleportation supported by one's own strength is still risky.
It’s quite high, and it’s definitely not a spell that can be used without any trouble.”
"Then what's going on with this altar?"
If Zhu Yiwei still looked solemn just now, her expression now has turned into a mixture of solemn and serious expression.
"Don't say anything next. I need to apply for permission for this matter."
Polu suddenly felt uneasy: "I won't be exposed to the little secrets of the mages, right?"
He quickly added: "If you need to apply, how about I stop asking and we just pretend nothing happened?"
However, at this time she had already covered her ears.
"Access to the horizon of the ring."
She examined the complex formula that appeared in the spiritual link and sighed. She calculated silently in her mind for a while and entered the answer.
Zhu Yiwei breathed a sigh of relief: "Surveillance subject No. 99803 initiated an inquiry about Incident No. 3 and requires permission review."
"99803? That student of Landau, right? The possibility of being infected by the pretender has been ruled out? Check."
"The report has been ruled out. All three inspections have passed. There are no signs of infection or latent signs. The examiner's signature is Archmage Hendrick. The most recent inspection was about ten days ago."
“What about the status of faith?”
"No obvious belief, but there are traces of divine magic."
"There are traces of divine magic, and there are Hendrick's test results, so it's basically safe. He can be granted Level 2 visitor privileges."
"yes."
Zhu Yiwei put down the hand covering her ears and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She first glared at Bolu who was looking back and forth between the sea and her face out of boredom, and then smiled slightly, as if she was happy about something.
Normally. She said without thinking:
"You know that we mages are all unbelievers, right?"
"I know. Speaking of which, do gods really exist?"
"Who knows, anyway, the energy of divine magic still exists in a way that we can't understand, so let's just pretend that they exist. Don't change the topic. Let's go to the chart room."
Bolu touched his head inexplicably and thought to himself: "Didn't you change the topic?"
When Polu just walked into the chart room, Zhu Yiwei waved her hand and placed a layer of sound insulation barrier on the steel bulkhead.
"Wow, don't you need to be so solemn?"
"This is a rule and must be implemented. Okay, have you heard of the first total war era hundreds of years ago?"
"I've heard of it, but I know that humans formed an alliance with elves at that time, and alchemists formed an alliance with mages at about the same time. I really don't know the specific process."
"Of course you don't know. We won't mention this history unless necessary."
"So it was covered up?"
"No, it was decided not to be made public after the legal procedures of the Supreme Council and the High-level Mage Assembly."
"Did something bad happen?"
"The chaotic ideological trend that led to the war that swept across the earth is an understatement."
"When this big hole was first discovered, the news spread quickly. The mages, or the various spell casters at that time, were by no means a united whole like they are today. The spell casters were scattered in their respective territories, in small circles
There are all kinds of opinions circulating, and the air is filled with conspiracy and fear."
"To put it simply, some people want to break out of the black hole to have a look, some are preparing to escape to other worlds, and some insist on holding on while the hole is not expanding. As for those who don't care about the big hole and want to fish in troubled waters and achieve their goals, there are even more people.
There are also believers of various gods, including those who don’t know
Believers of the evil god have also emerged one after another about where Tao Zang is. They each hold their own opinions, and it is almost impossible to convince each other. It is no longer reliable where the war started. We speculate that the battle between small circles has involved more and more people.
In just a few weeks it swept across the entire continent."
"After more than ten years of fighting, everyone was finally tired. At this time, civilization had almost been burned to the ground. Some people who had the same views during the war formed their own camps, and some of them were the predecessors of today's Council. Council organization
Shi started to hold on to the idea of sticking to the spot.
The magicians also organized most of the magicians who didn't really care about the Great Hollow but were tired of fighting. Based on Northcap, they reestablished order on this land. Although it's hard to say what it was.
It’s a secret, but not many people know it today.”
"What about those spellcasters who have different ideas?"
"Those who wanted to run away have already run away, and those who wanted to die have also gone. They couldn't control it at all at the time. After this war, the remaining spellcasters have reached the same point of view: if you master extraordinary power but don't use it on the right path,
It will only bring terrible turmoil and disaster. They all agreed to use their own strength to solve the problem of the Great Hollow to prevent the same war from sweeping the continent again."
"This matter has been carried out for a long time, and it has inevitably formed a sense of mission, responsibility, and a heavy spirit of sacrifice among the newly joined group of mages.
They have just embarked on the extraordinary road and have been taught by the largest group of mages today - solving the big hole and preventing the people from being tortured by the war are the cornerstones of the Xingdao mages' common philosophy, and when carrying out this goal, the sacrifice is really heavy.
big.
As a result, a mentality similar to that of martyrs was formed among the new group of mages. That’s why we use the altar to point to the cornerstone of this common concept.”
Part of this story seemed familiar. Polu sighed in his heart: "The waves are washing away the sand!"
Looking at Polu who was digesting the news, Zhu Yiwei waited for a while but did not get the expected question. She couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you ask why we are sure that our idea is correct?"
"Is there any need to ask?"
"According to statistics, 80% of people will have such thoughts."
"That's very strange. Why do so many people think so? Is there anything strange about wanting to protect their homeland and live a peaceful life? I can't figure it out."
Zhu Yiwei's eyes flashed with recognition. But she just responded lightly: "Then you are our fellow traveler. Okay, let's go, we should be docking soon."
When he was about to open the door, Polu suddenly remembered something. He turned around and asked:
"By the way, aren't magic apprentices allowed to communicate in private about their magic skills? Are there any very severe penalties?"
"Of course not! There are indeed very severe punishments!"
This answer surprised Polu.
"Why?"
"Because the dangers of magic experiments are too high, especially for unskilled beginners. Once there is a problem with the casting steps, you may suffer backlash, or you may die suddenly on the spot. In more serious cases, it will cause some difficult situations to deal with.
Therefore, communication between magic apprentices is strictly prohibited."
"If you want to exchange magic knowledge, you must at least prove that you have mastered a certain amount of knowledge and can handle things yourself. Only then can you be qualified to communicate. If you think you can do it, pass the official mage exam first."
"Moreover, young people are more curious. We are particularly worried that some privately circulated spells and magic circles are released on non-designated occasions, which may lead to irreparable consequences."
"So that's it!"
Polu suddenly understood, nodded, and opened the hatch.
