Wizards are mighty.

Chapter 43 Welfare
“You did a great job~”

Taking a crystal made of flesh and blood and a crystal made of soul from Phyllis, Vic smiled and touched her head.

"Meow meow~"

Phyllis rubbed Vic's palm excitedly.

It’s great to receive praise from the owner!

It seems those guys still have some value.

At least their bodies and souls can still be used in the hands of their masters.

……

"Let me think about it. This thing is probably useless. Let's just use it as material."

Vic held the blood and flesh crystal in front of his eyes and looked at it for a while, then threw it directly onto one end of the scale.

"Strengthen yourself."

There was a flash of light, and the scales were balanced again.

This thing is a growth-type magical weapon, and it can eat anything.

Through its own core rules, it can transform anything into its own nutrients.

To be honest, it was hard for Vic to imagine what level of magical weapon this was.

Just a glance at the small number of rules derived from the scale made him dizzy.

What's even more outrageous is that according to the information described in the scale, this thing is just the prototype of a powerful magical weapon.

Only after investing a large amount of resources in its growth will it become a truly all-round magical weapon and display its full power.

"The upper limit of input power has been increased, which is not bad, but it's a pity that no new abilities have appeared."

"As for this soul crystal, keep it and absorb it slowly, but you have to filter it first."

A large number of souls are obtained through sacrifice, but these souls contain a lot of impurities, so if used directly, the effect may not be that good.

If you absorb it rashly, you may even have to spend time and energy to resolve those broken emotions and memories.

So, after thinking for a while, Vic chose to inject some magic power directly into the scale.

"Filter out the impurities in this soul crystal."

"Om..."

This thought just came to my mind.

The scales responded immediately.

A strange and vibrating wave flew into the soul crystal.

Soon, the soul crystal that was originally a little turbid became clear and transparent again.

"It's really convenient. I don't even have to arrange the ceremony, although it does cost a little more mana."

Vic tutted his words in amazement.

This is not a balance, it's clearly a wishing machine.

I just don't know what the upper limit of this thing is.

If everything can be achieved, then he can become an all-round wizard with this thing.

Operations like inputting magic power and trading various witchcrafts are outrageous just to think about.

But Vic still feels that it is not very feasible.

Because after several experiments, he found that the more complex the wish, the higher the price to pay.

If you try to trade a high-level spell out of thin air, the magic power you spend will almost double.

Of course, if it is witchcraft that you have already learned, then it is not a big problem.

With just a small price to pay, the effectiveness of witchcraft can be greatly improved.

"By the way, the biggest use of this scale is actually trading? That's a bit strange." "Shouldn't the scale symbolize concepts such as justice, equality, and judgment?"

“Maybe these functions haven’t been developed yet.”

Vic felt helpless.

If this scale is calculated based on the quality of magic power, it is only at the level of a fifth-level apprentice.

Perhaps one has to grow into a formal wizard before being able to use the power of rules in this area.

……

……

……

Time passed quickly, and soon Vic could see the land in the distance from the deck.

That is the area rented by the Void Academy and several other wizard academies.

According to the local management regulations of the wizarding world, all land and property within the wizarding world belong to all wizards.

Any individual or force can only use it on a lease basis and cannot obtain permanent ownership.

The forces mentioned here naturally include the Eternal Wizard Civilization Council.

That's right, even the ruling body of a wizarding civilization must follow a series of regulations.

These regulations were directly decided by referendum of all wizards, and even the Eternal Wizard Civilization Council itself has no right to change them.

In other words, all power of the Eternal Wizard Civilization Council was originally entrusted to the council by the wizards.

Since it is entrusted, you can take it back at any time and supervise it at any time.

No high-sounding words can compare to a completely open and transparent administrative process and a referendum that can be initiated at any time.

Even if the Eternal Wizard Civilization Council is to be dissolved on the spot, as long as a certain number of people agree, it will immediately enter the referendum process and no one can obstruct it.

In addition, there are the rents from the industries in the native wizard civilization, and all the income of the Eternal Wizard Civilization Parliament, including taxes, tributes from subordinate civilizations, income from administrative privileges, etc.

After deducting the necessary expenses for maintaining the parliament, 50% of the funds must be invested in the social welfare fund of the wizarding civilization.

And be completely transparent and subject to supervision by every wizard!

The remaining 50% of the profits will be used for education, infrastructure, etc.

In other words, more than half of the income is paid directly to each wizard every year!
And according to strict evaluation standards, each wizard's contribution to wizard civilization is measured, and different proportions of social welfare are given.

Although the amount of social welfare varies greatly, even a first-level wizard who is most greedy for pleasure and makes no contribution can receive wealth that he can enjoy forever as long as he does not pursue a higher level.

Vic's eyes widened when he saw this part.

This system seems outrageous to the extreme, but it makes sense if you think about it carefully.

When material things are extremely abundant, almost all wizards will want to pursue further development of themselves.

And these social welfare benefits will be transformed into fuel for the development of wizard society under the subjective initiative of every wizard.

Even without any intervention from administrative agencies, expanded reproduction can be achieved with high efficiency.

As for possible errors, omissions and flaws at the macro level, isn't that still another 50 percent?

Most of the foreign wars of wizard civilization were privately organized. Only those who have experienced it know how financially wealthy a militarized civilization is after getting rid of a large amount of military expenditure and personnel expenses.

A group of conquering wizards go to other worlds to play the conquest game, and they are responsible for their own profits and losses.

If they win, they are jubilant; if they lose, they just feel that they are not strong enough. Not only do they contribute money and effort, but their morale is also very high.

The wizard civilization only needs to provide support in the rear.

You can sell all kinds of war magic weapons at will, which will allow you to make some money and consume excess production capacity.

Besides, after conquering those worlds, the wizards are often too lazy to manage them and just sell them directly in exchange for resources.

In this way, a virtuous circle will naturally be formed.
