Wizard, I have a game board.

Chapter 189 Love
Time flies, and seven months have passed in the blink of an eye.

On June 204, 6 in the Wizarding Calendar, a major event occurred in the Wizarding Union.

Those players who were active in various parts of the Wizarding Union and provided wizardry slots for countless wizards suddenly disappeared.

Although before leaving, those players told the wizards that this was just a minor version update and they would come back in the future, the exact time of their return was still unknown.

In the center of Milton Continent, on the top floor of Francis Wizard Tower.

"It's only been two years and he disappeared again?" Francis looked at the message Amy sent, rubbed his brows, and sighed helplessly, "I'm afraid it will be a mess for a while."

The disappearance of players will inevitably cause the price of sorcery slots to skyrocket.

The witchcraft position, which originally only required ten magic crystals, may skyrocket in the future to a level higher than before the players arrived.

According to his estimation, the value of a witchcraft position in the future should stop at around 500 magic crystals.

As for the reason, it is that in the past two years, due to the low price of witchcraft slots, many wizard apprentices and one to three ring wizards have modified their meditation methods in an attempt to explore new ways and obtain a large amount of contribution points.

There is no way around it. Although there are many ways to obtain contribution points, it is extremely difficult to obtain enough contribution points to be promoted to the fourth ring.

Roughly speaking, an ordinary three-ring wizard would need to live for a thousand years to collect the full amount.

But collecting enough money is just the basis, and then you have to condense the original container.

For ordinary wizards, without sufficient knowledge accumulation, condensing the origin container is pure nonsense.

Exploring new paths is the most convenient shortcut, which not only allows you to obtain a large amount of contribution points and build your own system, but also allows you to understand the essence of all rune changes.

As long as there are no major problems with the road we are building, there is a great hope that it will become the Fourth Ring Road.

Of course, all this can only be achieved if the player does not disappear.

As for now
"Should I intervene and regulate the price of witchcraft positions?" Francis was a little hesitant.

If he intervenes, he can stabilize the price of sorcery slots to the same level as before the players arrived.

However, the disadvantage of doing this is that the witchcraft slots have to be allocated in a limited amount, otherwise they will not be enough.

There was no way. There were only so many new apprentices born in the wizarding world every year. He couldn't create more wizarding positions out of thin air.

This kind of regulation seems to be no different from letting it develop as it is?
"Forget it, that's it."

Francis lowered his eyes, and his spiritual perception passed through the barrier of the wizard tower and enveloped the energy furnace research base in the east of the city. "Regulation is meaningless. If the energy furnace can achieve two more fundamental breakthroughs, it will change the problem of the lack of wizard positions from the source."

In the 92nd year of the Wizarding Calendar, the energy furnace had achieved a breakthrough, which allowed the energy furnace that could only support three three-ring magic circles at the same time to now support ten three-ring magic circles at the same time.

Unfortunately, this is far from enough to achieve the abyss sun that Lor once envisioned.

According to his deduction, at least an energy furnace that is strong enough to support the five-ring magic circle must be present to barely meet the energy supply of the abyss sun.

"We haven't even made the energy furnace that supports the four-ring magic circle yet, so how can we think about the fifth ring?" Francis shook his head with a wry smile, put aside his thoughts, and immersed himself again in deducing the fit between the origin container and the domain.

Betula continent, the top floor of the Lor Wizard Tower.

Lor stopped exploring the microscopic area of ​​his sea of ​​consciousness in time, wrote down the fragments of basic space runes he had collected before, opened the sequence panel, and looked at the origin point column.

[Origin Points: 4, 78.25%]

"There are actually four points?" Looking at the remaining balance of origin points, Lor's eyes lit up.

Originally, he expected that it would be good if the players could provide him with two origin points in the next seven months.

The result was far beyond his expectations, providing exactly four origin points.

"Well, it's actually normal if you think about it."

Luo Er thought to himself: "As time goes on, the more magic crystals the players save, the higher the level they will reach. For example, the efficiency of killing demons by a three-ring wizard is incomparable to that of a one-ring wizard. Now it has only doubled, which is actually a small amount."

"When the players come next time, they will probably bring me even bigger surprises."

Of course, this surprise has its limits. Apart from the initial burst of demons relying on accumulation, the maximum amount of surprise in the future is only one point per month.

There are only a few abyss demons in the third layer of the abyss who can be promoted one level every month. It is impossible to speed up the process.

Shaking his head slightly, Luo Er stopped thinking about it and gave an order to the sequence panel: "Turn on macroscopic insight."

The long river of time, like a blue bracelet, appeared before his eyes.

Lor calmed down and continued to record the outline of the time rune.

In the first month, he recorded 255 arcs.

In the second month, one hundred and eighty-seven arcs were recorded.

In the third month, one hundred and seventeen arcs were recorded.

Looking at the only remaining point of origin, Lor fell into silence.

According to his previous idea, he would wait until the number of recorded arcs was less than one hundred before exploring towards the center.

Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood, and laying a solid foundation will enable you to move forward more steadily.

But if he sharpened the knife again, he wouldn't be able to use it to chop wood.
"There are still about three hundred years until the next player comes. It's really a long time."

Luo Er sighed lightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally made a decision, "Forget it, let's go chop some wood this time."

“Opening up macro insights.”

The long river of time emerges again.

"Enlarge it for me!" Lor said in his heart as he looked at the river of time as big as a bracelet.

"Whoosh-"

In an instant, the long river of time returned to its original state as it was when it was first seen, with no end in sight and the water rushing endlessly.

Above the river, distorted images appear from time to time.

Lor ignored the river and looked up at the sky.

The boundless blue light illuminates the sky, making the originally deep and dark void appear a deep blue.

This blue glow has different shades. If he had seen it for the first time, he probably would never have thought that these were the materialization of the basic time runes.

As for now, he can find some traces from it.

"This arc is wrong. It should be the outline of another rune." Relying on his previous accumulation, Lor tried hard to distinguish the overlapping arc lines and tried to decompose them.

"Yes, this place should have this arc."

“Hey, this arc.”

"Haha, sure enough, this is the reasonable way."

Unconsciously, Lor's mentality changed slightly. He was completely immersed in the pursuit of the complete time basic rune and could no longer maintain absolute rationality.

"I knew it." "Wrong, all wrong, how could this happen?"

"That shouldn't be the case. What went wrong?"

"I see, that's where the mistake was. Oh, remember this lesson and analyze it again."

Sometimes Lor laughed heartily, sometimes he was depressed, just like a child, with no distractions in his mind.

A month has passed by in the blink of an eye.

The scene before Lor's eyes changed back to that of his study.

"Huh?" Luo Er, who was laughing heartily, was stunned for a moment. Then he reacted and felt a surge of disappointment in his heart. "Is this the end?"

This time, the exploration of the basic time runes gave him a completely different experience.

Seeking solutions from the endless unknown, every time he gained something, he always felt extremely happy. This was a completely different mentality from when he was piecing together space runes.

"Why is my mentality when exploring the basic runes of time so different from when I was exploring the basic runes of space? Obviously, the piecing together of the basic runes of space is equally important." Realizing the huge change in his mentality, Lor immediately began to examine himself.

This change in mentality was so great that he had to treat it with caution.

In his mind, he kept comparing the differences between exploring the microscopic world and the macroscopic world, and obtaining the basic rune fragments of space and the basic rune fragments of time.

"First, the microscopic world is something I can explore at any time, so it's not that precious. As a result, I don't have the same cherishing mentality as when I explore the macroscopic world."

Luo Er deeply analyzed the changes in his mentality. "Secondly, I have some expectations for the long road ahead for the space faction, but the future of the time faction is completely blank. I can only wait for it to be created. Deep in my heart, I seem to love challenging the unknown and exploring the unknown?"

“As for the reason why I love the unknown, maybe it has something to do with my experiences since I embarked on the path of a wizard?”

When he finished analyzing it, he suddenly realized the fundamental reason for his change in mentality.

Passion, or liking, is a very unreasonable thing, and there is no data to refer to.

Wizards pursue absolute rationality and the use of wisdom to pave the way forward, but they are still human beings after all.

As a human being, you will have your own joys, sorrows, anger and happiness.

If you completely give it up, you are no longer a human being.

"Perhaps loving the unknown is a good thing?" Lor said with a relieved smile.

He is not sure whether it is better to devote oneself to research wholeheartedly or to maintain absolute rationality while conducting research.

But he knew that he would be happy if he devoted himself to research, and that was enough.

He wants to live, wants to live forever, and wants to live happily.

Now that I have found my own happiness and it doesn’t necessarily slow down my research progress, why should I change?

After analyzing the mentality problem, Lor breathed a sigh of relief, took out the parchment, and recorded all the incomplete basic time runes he had obtained this time.

All in all, he obtained a total of thirty-seven different basic incomplete time runes this time.

If the complexity of the time basic rune is similar to that of the space basic rune, then the most complete time basic rune he obtained this time is about 7/1000 in size.

Although it seems like a small number, as long as he collects them all, he will become a unique time wizard throughout the ages.

With the blessing of this temptation, every bit of progress is enough to make him happy.

"As long as I don't break through the sixth ring, I can change the origin container at any time. There is still a lot of time, so there is no rush." ​​Lor said secretly.

After sorting out his own gains and losses, he took out the continental communicator from the space ring and learned about the various events that had happened in the Wizarding Union in the past month through the central database.

At this time in the previous life, due to the sudden disappearance of players, chaos began to appear in the Wizarding Union.

Now he has proposed the Abyss Transformation Plan ahead of time. Although it has not yet been implemented, it should not be a problem to stabilize the overall situation.

[On June 204, 6 of the Wizard Calendar, a conflict broke out between the three-ringed Great Wizard Bernardo and the three-ringed Great Wizard Zuoxiu of the Nathan Wizard Tower on the Verni Continent. The battle eventually took place in the sky 1 miles north of the Nathan Wizard Tower, and Great Wizard Bernardo killed Great Wizard Zuoxiu.]

[Cause of conflict: old grudges from the apprenticeship period.]

[Results: No damage to the environment, no impact on mortals, no action over the city or wizard tower, no punishment.]

[Wizard Calendar Year 204, June 6, Fernie Continent]

[Wizard Calendar Year 204, June 6, Wayne Continent]

【Wizard Calendar】

All the ridiculously detailed information came into Lor's eyes.

The situation was relatively good from June 1st to June 3rd. Every day, the number of deaths of three-ring wizards in the entire wizarding world due to various conflicts was between zero and three.

But since June 4, this number has doubled.

The number of great wizards who die every day is at least five, and the number of first- and second-ring wizards and apprentices below them is countless.

"It's okay. The death toll of the third-ring wizards has not fluctuated much, and they have all maintained a certain level of rationality. No mortals have been affected, and none of the fourth-ring councilors have moved." Lor looked at the data and nodded with satisfaction.

Like this period in his previous life, he vaguely remembered that there was a plot revealed to the players, and even the fourth-ring councilors had taken action, not to mention the third-ring and below.

Now, because of his actions, the turmoil in the Wizarding Union has obviously been reduced a lot.

"I don't know when the Energy Furnace Research Institute will be able to develop an energy furnace that can support a four-ring magic array."

Luo Er thought to himself, "As long as they develop the four-ring energy furnace, the Abyss Transformation Plan can be officially implemented."

If we want to solve this problem fundamentally, we still have to create more living space for mortals and allow more people with meditation talents to be born.

The abyss is the most suitable place for development nowadays.

In order to construct an anti-abyss energy sun that can cover an entire layer of abyss, a five-ring energy furnace must be used.

But in fact, relying on the four-ring energy furnace, it is possible to construct an anti-abyss energy sun that is sufficient to dispel the abyss energy. It's just that the coverage area is smaller than that of the anti-abyss energy sun constructed by the five-ring energy furnace.

This is not a big problem. At most you can just put a few more up.

Quality is not enough, quantity is needed.

"Unfortunately, Wizard Thorn, who caused the energy furnace to undergo the first transformation in the 92nd year of the Wizarding Calendar, died due to his short lifespan and failure in his attempt to forcefully break through the fourth ring." Lor's thoughts turned, and he felt very sorry when he thought of the wizard who caused the energy furnace to undergo the transformation.

Simply failing to construct the Origin Container would simply turn one into a useless person without any core magic.

If the lifespan is insufficient, then construction failure will be equivalent to death.

Thorne's talent in energy furnace research is unquestionable. In just a few decades, he has brought about a transformation in the energy furnace.

If he were still here, perhaps the energy furnace would have undergone another transformation by now.

"I hope there will be another genius in energy furnace research." Luo Er turned off the mainland communicator and said to himself: "As long as the energy furnace undergoes another transformation, everything will be different."
