There is often this kind of plot in TV dramas. The protagonist tells his enemy that something important is in his pocket. Then he suddenly attacks when the enemy comes to look for it, and a fierce fight ensues.
The protagonist was beaten violently by the enemy first, and then the small universe suddenly broke out and started a fierce counterattack. Then the bad guy was knocked to the ground, and the protagonist won the battle with difficulty with a scar on his face...
Another classic plot is: the wise villain will not go up to the protagonist's pocket himself, but smartly let the other party take it out! Then the plot will be reversed, instead of the protagonist taking out something and then threatening the villain
To destroy this important object, the protagonist takes out a pistol from his pocket to turn the tide of the battle.
However, this kind of thing is unlikely to happen in reality... because Chris is a man who has watched countless TV series and movies. He spoke uprightly and gave a safe answer: "You tell me first.
What’s in it!”
Frunzberg felt that Chris across from him did not look like a generous and heroic human emperor, but more like a despicable villain with no sense of security.
He has already sworn allegiance, hasn't he? Could it be that in the eyes of this monarch, a magician's oath is such a worthless thing? He is a great magician after all! An existence similar to a god in the mortal world!
How could he treat a magician's words as child's play?
With shame and irritation, Frunzberg said solemnly: "My great master, His Majesty the Grand Duke of Eilanhir! I must reiterate that as a magician! Our oath is based on our supreme glory.
Yes! Don’t question our loyalty, at least after we swear allegiance to you, please don’t doubt our..."
"I'm sorry!" Chris apologized immediately and said, "I don't know much about magicians! But we have a lot of time to get to know each other slowly. Do you think that's right?"
"Okay..." Frunzberg let out a breath of frustration, relieved his inner depression, and slowly said: "Magic's time is precious, so we used magic to create a
A magic ball that helps magicians gain experience."
"This kind of magic ball is what we call the magic ball of knowledge." As he said this, Frunzberg took the backpack from William's hand, opened the lid, and showed what was inside: "We are here this time.
, in addition to bringing a lot of magic reserve liquid, I also brought a few magic balls like this."
He took out a transparent crystal ball that looked about the same size as a light bulb from among a pile of liquid bottles that shone with light blue light. He held it in his hand and said: "It is the magic ball of knowledge. It is blank and has not been filled with water yet."
Enter the magic ball of knowledge.”
"The user can input some of the knowledge he wants to pass on to the apprentice into this magic ball, and then it can completely instill this knowledge into the apprentice's mind, and he will never forget it in his life!" Frunzberg
He stretched out his hand and handed the crystal ball to Chris in the distance: "The power of the Holy Demon Empire is much more terrifying than you imagine!"
"I x..." Cursing secretly in his heart, Chris was already shocked by this super learning machine that is similar to a human USB flash drive. If the earth's civilization has this thing, it will no longer be a dream for academic masters to travel everywhere.
Such a simple tool that can copy a person's knowledge will definitely allow Chris to spread his knowledge a million times faster! He can quickly establish the world's knowledge system without having to forcefully instill it every day.
A lot of effort is put into cultivating talents.
As long as he has this thing, his knowledge can be passed on, spread and eventually change the entire world! This world will not need elementary schools, junior high schools, high schools, or even universities. Everyone is born a genius, a scientific civilization
Genius!
The power of modern civilization is that knowledge is summarized into systems. As long as these systems are mastered, the results can be inherited and promoted. When the advancement begins, everything that stands in the way will be crushed.
To put it more intuitively, the Magic Ball of Knowledge can help Chris create artificial time-travelers in batches, turning many aboriginal people into a "time-traveling army" with the accumulation of modern civilization and technology. And this army is not for the backward civilization of this era.
It can be stopped.
Judging from the extent of the Magic Empire's use of this magic ball of knowledge, which is more of an artifact than an artifact, the opponent's knowledge cannot be systematically promoted, so it cannot maximize the power of this magic ball.
What the enemy cannot do, he can do. This is really exciting news. However, Chris still did not walk over to pick up the magic ball of knowledge that might be a bomb. Instead, he asked: "It's so easy to use."
?”
"It's not without limitations." William, who has used this kind of thing since he was a child, seems to have more say when talking about it: "What it can pass on is some fixed knowledge, that is to say
, Mastering this kind of thing... needs to be understood by the successor himself."
"Uh..." Chris understood that this thing is a memory, and how much it can be understood depends on the individual. It can only instill some things into people's memories, but it cannot replace people's thinking.
In other words, what it can create is not super academics who know everything, but a group of "nerds" who only memorize books. Chris suddenly felt a little disappointed, but then he suddenly realized: a group of nerds is better than a group of nerds.
How good are the natives who have to cultivate everything from scratch!
Nerds will be nerds... Chris complained in his mind, and then thought it would be better to ask for the instruction manual before using it. After all, this thing is like taking medicine, and no one wants to take it without reading the instruction manual.
Just grab a handful of white pills and stuff them into your mouth...
"So, does it have any side effects? Can mortals use it?" Chris asked: "Or, if you use it, you will be instilled with other things, and you must be loyal to a certain person."
He didn't want to cultivate a large group of die-hard fans of the Magic Empire. Wouldn't it be a wedding dress for others? Even if he asked at this time, he would not dare to believe that Frunzberg would put such a thing on a large scale.
of use.
"There are side effects. Users will vomit and cry... In short, there will be adverse reactions, which will last about a day..." Thinking of his appearance at that time, William felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.
Frunzberg continued to explain: "Of course mortals can use it, because our magic empire uses this kind of thing to 'enlighten' the magic apprentices. Those apprentices have never been exposed to magic before, so their status should be no different from mortals.
the difference."
"And what you said about changing people's thinking is impossible. Otherwise, wouldn't it be easy to control other people's thoughts? With such a good thing, we can directly use this magic ball of knowledge to control all mortals. Isn't it right?
Isn't it easier?" Frunzberg said.
Countless mages in the Magic Empire have long thought about the issues that Chris has thought about. From the day the Magic Ball of Knowledge was born, some people have been studying the feasibility of implanting "mind control" as a method.
Because this is a shortcut that can effectively control others and consolidate dominance. Unfortunately, this kind of research failed in the end. The magic to control others is too advanced and consumes too much magic. It is basically flashy and useless, let alone impossible.
It is used in low-level magic consumables such as the Knowledge Magic Ball.
"As for the limitations of this thing, apart from the side effects, the biggest problem is its 'capacity'. It can instill not much knowledge, and each person can only use it once in his life, so..." Frunzberg
He turned around and took out two more from his backpack: "It's very cheap."
In any society and in any era, there is always one factor that restricts the use of a thing: cost. Whether it is easy to manufacture or easy to use, whether it is the cost of manufacturing or the cost of use, is the main factor in whether a thing can become popular.
.
"It cannot be used repeatedly. After use, it will become dim and turbid, and will no longer be so transparent. Its main production material is magic concentrate. Now you know why the ore that mortals have been mining for magicians is so important.
Now..." Frunzberg continued to introduce without hesitation.
After hearing this, Chris finally understood why the magic concentrate in the hands of the Arant Empire and the Dothan Empire was so important, because it was a consumable that many magic empires always needed. How many babies are born in a year?
How many young people become magic apprentices will require as many knowledge magic balls and magic concentrates!
And according to Frunzberg, not only the Magic Ball of Knowledge, but also the production of magic reserve liquid, and the production of many magic essence coins commonly used in magic empires require magic concentrate.
This need is endless, so magicians allow mortals to survive in forbidden magic lands without the flow of magic.
Now, in addition to the Holy Demon Empire, or those magic empires, there is another person eyeing the magic concentrate. Chris really wants to own such a mine, and then produce knowledge magic balls to quickly improve the quality of his citizens!
"Let Smith come here!" Chris has decided to try to experiment with the feasibility of spreading industrial knowledge. Among many subordinates, Smith has the most and best industrial knowledge. It is normal for him to do this experiment.
.
"No need to bother!" Frunzberg pulled out a junior high school physics book from the bookshelf, pressed the magic ball of knowledge on the book, and magical things began to happen.
