The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 390 The Duchy of Lance
Moran organized the information about the Duchy of Lance in his mind and quickly came up with an idea.

She retrieved a document and turned to a page: "Look here."

Lilith, Vasita, and Sylph gathered around.

"This document is about the mage school within the Duchy of Lance, right?" Lilith recognized it at a glance.

Moran nodded: "It says here that since its founding, the Duchy of Lance has attached great importance to the training of mages."

A school for beginner mages was established in each viscount town.

Children who are seven years old or older can go to school at the end of August each year to have their mental strength and elemental affinity tested.

If the test results meet the requirements, you can enter the Dharma Master Enlightenment School to study.

If one can become a mage apprentice before the age of ten, one can go to the Lance Mage Tower outside the capital to study.

If you can advance to the level of a novice mage before the age of twenty, you will be able to obtain novice mage training resources from the Mage Tower.

If one can advance to the intermediate mage level before the age of thirty, one will be able to obtain intermediate mage training resources from the Mage Tower.

If one can advance to the rank of advanced mage before the age of fifty, one will be able to obtain advanced mage training resources from the Mage Tower.

Those with exceptional talent may even receive a government-funded opportunity to study at the Imperial Magic Academy.

However, judging from the number of apprentices, junior and intermediate mages studying in the Mage Tower, the number of mages who can successfully advance and stay in the Mage Tower is almost one in a thousand.

Even more people were eliminated and left the Mage Tower.

However, even after leaving the mage tower, most of them would not stray far from the nearby capital.

In the Magic Empire, noble titles are determined by magical ranks, which means that the most powerful mage tower in the entire country must be located near the capital.

The capital city is not only the political center of the country, but also the center of magic.

For mages, staying in the capital city, where the magical atmosphere is most concentrated, is where their future lies.

The Duchy of Lance should be no exception.

In addition, the Duchy of Lance offers preferential treatment to mages.

Even the worst mage apprentice can earn one gold coin a month, which, given the prices in the capital of the Duchy of Lance, is enough to live comfortably.

With his status as a mage, he could easily find a well-paid job in the capital and live a true aristocratic life.

So when the time comes, we can just head straight to the capital.

Aside from the ruling mages and mage lords stationed in villages and towns, you'd hardly see any mages elsewhere.

Lilith agreed: "That's true. Nine out of ten sources about mages are from the vicinity of the capital. But how can we spread our magic without revealing our identities?"

"Hmm... have you heard of 'multi-level marketing'?" Moran asked.

The three witches were completely bewildered: "What do you mean?"

Moran thought for a moment and then rephrased it: "You know about how, during the Age of Divine Descent, angels and demons impersonated gods to fool humanity, right?"

The witches now knew: "We've taken the test several times."

The reason why the gods of light, fabricated by angels, and the gods of darkness, fabricated by demons, were believed by mankind in that era was ultimately due to mankind's worship of extraordinary power.

Although humanity has forged its own magical path, the pursuit of power will never change. We could also learn from angels and demons, disguise ourselves, and then target those who are obsessed with power but, due to their own abilities and practical reasons, cannot find a path or opportunity for advancement.

We lure them to join us with high returns, and then get them to actively promote magic and develop their downlines for us.

"That way we can count our magic power while lying down!" Moran said.

"It seems really impressive, but... I still don't understand," Vasita said.

Lilith nodded and asked, "How exactly should we do it?"

Sylph looked at her curiously.

"Simply put, let's first come up with a new magical concept to wrap up ourselves and our magic."

Similar to the angels' God of Light and their magic, and the demons' God of Darkness and their magic.

Then find someone who is in a difficult situation and has been unable to find a way out.

For example, those mages who were recently expelled from the mage tower and lacked talent.

Tell them we can teach them a new kind of magic that can solve their current predicament.

To prevent them from disbelieving, we can first offer them some incentives, such as {Green Ghost Fruit Card}.

Presumably, no mage lacking talent would refuse a Green Ghost Fruit.

Then, we can set up some tests and rewards to gradually increase his loyalty.

When the time is right, we will formally sign a contract with him.

At this point, we'll have the mage who signed the contract with us become our spokesperson, repeating the same strategy to develop a network of subcontractors and find new contractors.

This way, one person tells ten, ten tell a hundred, which is much more efficient than us going to find people one by one.

Imagine a classmate who entered the mage tower at the same time as you, and suddenly one day his strength increases dramatically. Then he secretly tells you that it's because he learned some new magic.

Wouldn't it be easier to trust someone who suddenly tells you about a certain magic?
Those who fail the test can only come into contact with some products of witch magic, and cannot truly sign a contract with us or understand our identities.

As long as they sign a contract with us, there are consequences for breach of contract, and they have tasted the benefits from us, they will never voluntarily reveal our identities.

This way it's foolproof.

We've gathered a group of human contractors in the Duchy of Lance, clarified the process of developing downlines and the internal promotion channels, and then we can directly spread these people step by step to other countries in the Magic Empire to develop other contractors.

All we need to do is explore those areas that are inconvenient for human mages to go to.

Even if our actions are exposed later, we won't be at the center of the storm. Whether we have to return to the wilderness or whatever, we won't be put on the defensive.

And the 'seeds' we sow in the wilderness, even if some are discovered, others can grow into a vast sea of ​​grass.

Moran spoke eloquently, and the way Lilith, Vasita, and Sylph looked at her changed from doubt to surprise, and finally to admiration and worship.

While they were still figuring out how to promote magic in the Duchy of Lance, Moran had already prepared to use the Duchy of Lance as a starting point to directly build a promotional team.

It's still this kind of promotional method... which sounds really hard to refuse.

If they were those mages, wouldn't they also be tempted?
From this point on, the entire magic propaganda strategy began to be led by Moran, with Lilith, Vasida, and Sylph as the three assistants.

There was nothing they could do; the three of them racked their brains but couldn't come up with such a good idea.
