Chapter 772
The drug-eating genius wizard, episode 772,
the third thesis (6),
the moment Lennok came forward holding the tablet and was about to continue his explanation.
Someone sitting in a seat watching the announcement vigorously tapped the armrest.
smart.
Even with a light gesture like knocking, the echo spreads across the main hall in an instant.
The vibration was so intense that even Lennok stopped talking for a moment and turned around.
The incident started with a fat middle-aged man who was sitting relatively in the front seat.
The man who lifted the tablet with the other hand said, leaving the hand that was beating on the armrest intact.
“It’s heavy.”
“… … .”
“The feel of the screen is terrible and the signal transmission rate is absurdly low.”
said the man, staring at Lennok.
“The sincerity in producing the sample is admirable, but I don’t think I need to hear more. This tablet cannot be commercialized.”
“Hey, without listening to the end of the presentation, what… … .”
“It is not too late to make a judgment after listening to all the theoretical explanations.”
Those who were more sympathetic to Lennok pointed out the rudeness, but the man didn’t care.
I just stood up holding the tablet and slowly walked out in front of the podium.
Darby, hiding under his study coat, whispered immediately.
[Jonaf McKenzie, chief researcher of the Aldrif Mage Tower. He is said to be an authority on driving/flight navigators.]
“… … .”
An expert in the production of magic engineering equipment using touch panels.
Looking at the fact that they manufacture navigators used for driving and flying, it is probably one of the axes directly or indirectly influenced by the anti-gravity engine developed by Lennok.
However, the Mage Tower did not stand still at such a sudden action by Jonoff.
“I don’t know if that’s a valid reason to be rude in our mage tower.”
widely!!
Tatiana, gripping Jonoff’s shoulders tightly, brushed her characteristic red hair.
“A word from the mage just now. Can you take full responsibility here?”
“The witch of gunfire… … .”
“Were the rumors that the rosary is in the Mage Tower of Solidarity true?”
Recognizing Tatiana’s face, the officials of the Mage Tower hurriedly turned their gaze away, but the wizard from the Blaver Mage Tower lowered his head pretending not to know.
It must be because the condition of the master of the Blaver Magic Tower is not so good to show hostility.
Perhaps he had heard about the war of nerves between the dog and the tower owner.
At the moment when the others were taken aback by the unexpected situation, Jonoff quickly opened his mouth.
“I know I am being rude. I will take responsibility for that after this is over.”
Jonoff ignored Lennok and began to speak slowly.
“But shouldn’t you be aware of it in advance if you set up a place in the name of a thesis presentation and present the sample as such a poor thing?”
“Magician Mackenzie.”
According to Tatiana’s temperament, it wouldn’t be strange if she burned this cheeky wizard a long time ago.
Even so, she is holding back her anger because the announcement of this place is being broadcast live throughout the Balkans.
Jonoff believes in that too, so he must have boldly cut off Lennok’s presentation and focus on his own words.
I don’t care what kind of responsibilities I’ll take after this job is over, no matter how bad Jonof’s impression or public image is.
Even if he violated the established procedure, he was trying to knock down the doubts about Lennok’s thesis here.
Pointing out the fundamental flaws between the paper and the sample in this spot watched by hundreds of thousands of people.
“An ambiguous area that is too big to carry and small to put in one place. Dull weight not commensurate with the size. An exoskeleton made of cheap plywood.”
Jonoff turned his gaze to Lennok.
“All of them are crude compositions suitable for presentations at the undergraduate level. Even a person like me could pull out hundreds of them in three days if we rented a nearby factory.”
“… … .”
As if they couldn’t stand it any longer, Tatiana and Jenny prepare to move at the same time.
It must be because he knows that even if he just listens like this, there will definitely be a problem.
But instead of leaving them alone, Lennok raised his hand to stop them.
[…] … !!]
He shakes his head at Jenny, who is shouting something in the distance, and calms down Tatiana.
Contrary to the two people’s expressions of incomprehension, Jonoff’s words weren’t completely wrong.
‘It’s actually a sample that was pulled out in the studio used by undergraduate students over a period of about three days.’
Perhaps it is because he is an expert in navigator production, but his eye for estimating is not common.
The problem was that he was using that insight to attack Lennok’s thesis.
“To teach undergraduates magic with an object like this. Would you understand if I said that you learn magic using this as a textbook?”
Jonoff’s confident remarks and Lennok’s reaction, not bothering to stop him.
Other audience members who confirmed it also began to add a word at a time.
“hmm… … Will it eventually flow in the form of a defense?”
“In that sense, it is also true that this specimen does not live up to expectations.”
“I’ll have to look at the theory for more details, but there are not just one or two questionable parts.”
Researcher’s dissertation.
Among them, it is not unusual for a thesis to go through defense immediately after publication.
If Evan Bylon’s dissertation is for an integrated master’s and doctoral degree course, following the prescribed procedure is a natural process.
Jonoff’s remarks were rude and out of order, but these kinds of arguments are relatively common, especially among wizards.
The officials gathered here thought about it and recognized that there was no need to point out the rudeness if Evan had tolerated it.
“Certainly, the hardware side is hard to praise even with empty words. It doesn’t fit the purpose of the learning device you mentioned at all.”
As Jonoff said, the texture is not uniform. The gripping part is slippery, but the screen is stiff.
“The battery is very crude. As for the handling of the seams, it seems that there are many signs that it was airlifted in a hurry. Is there a reason you prepared in such a hurry?”
Experts in each field point out the design and structure of the tablet itself following Jonof.
“As explained, the magic that can be learned is fixed, but wouldn’t it be too weak in general purpose?”
“Isn’t it enough to present it in the form of a thesis if it is only compatible with a specific system or technique… … .”
“On top of that, if you have statistics on Rabatenon undergraduates, it doesn’t make any sense. Aren’t they very talented children?”
“No matter how much I think about it, it doesn’t seem to have as much ripple effect as the second thesis. I doubt it was just luck.”
In the meantime, even the advisory committee and scholars who carefully listened to Lennok’s explanation of the theory and pointed out questions.
All those doubts that resonate and amplify like echoes are being recorded beside the screen in real time.
It was prepared to make Evan’s presentation easier, but it seems to only emphasize the loopholes in the thesis.
Lennok, who had checked Jenny, who was busy walking around behind the podium, stared blankly at the camera looking at him.
Lennok hadn’t yet said a word to all these comments and questions that were piling up in real time.
The moment when the noisy atmosphere around the pulpit subsided little by little and silence settled again.
However, from now on, what was directed towards Lennok was not expectation, but only suspicion and delusion.
Depending on how you start and finish your remarks here, everything Evan Bylon has built will be reevaluated.
“you’re right. You saw it correctly.”
But Lennok nodded without hesitation even though he knew that.
“We tried to make it as light and portable as possible, but there were limitations. It was only possible to configure it to a level that could be mass-produced through the budget allocated to the Department of Elements.”
“Hey, if you admit that right now-”
“The point about the theory is not wrong. The atmosphere was a little chaotic, but many people asked good questions.”
Lennok grabbed the microphone and started walking slowly off the podium.
“As you said, there are not many magics that can be learned on the learning device. Right now, there’s just a handful of magic built into that tablet.”
[…] … .]
Learnable magic is also not particularly outstanding in terms of performance or efficiency.
This time, the main hall of the Mage Tower fell silent.
The attitude that goes beyond the level of acknowledging the flaws of the learning device, rather, first confesses what is lacking.
It is an honest confession that is not at all suitable for a researcher presenting a thesis, and it feels foolish.
In a seminar being broadcast to hundreds of thousands of cameras, Lennok does not hesitate to open his mouth and accept all these points.
“There is no set system, type, or purpose. We gave up performance to focus on implementation, just to prove that learning is possible.”
“So you think that could be an excuse now?”
Jonoff asked, clicking his tongue as if he were looking at someone with a little pity.
The nervousness I felt when I first met Lennok went somewhere, and it seems that I am dealing with someone who is lacking.
The moment Lennok looked at Jonoff and opened his mouth to say something.
“Assistant Professor Bylon.”
One of the senators who hadn’t said anything until now spoke up.
Everyone’s eyes are focused on the words of an elderly woman sitting in the front with a cane.
The procession of the powerful who seized the most powerful and enormous authority in this megalopolis.
She said, ignoring any other reaction, staring at Lennok.
“There is a saying that you have a personal relationship with Gong-ro.”
“… … .”
“The seminar was set up here through an agreement with the Mage Tower. Kyeon-roe’s consideration for leaving his seat. It is true that collusion is suspected under several circumstances.”
The senator’s calm voice pierced everyone’s ears like a whisper.
“Some have said that the results the assistant professor has announced so far were not himself, but the Archmage’s help.”
“… … !!”
Others turned to the senator with a look of surprise at that unconventional remark.
Not at the level of raising questions, but bold words and actions that are impossible unless you are trying to openly criticize Evan Bylon.
Even if there is such a word, what does it mean that a senator of the central council directly mentions it?
Hundreds of thousands of people watching this place must have heard what the lawmaker just said without hesitation.
However, the senator spoke again heartlessly, as if he had no inspiration from what he had said.
“Could you please clarify the question right here and now?”
“… … This is Senator Amanda.”
Saying that, Lennok slowly stood in front of the senator.
“I heard that even though he is from a bloodline of a shaman, he is an authority who has made numerous achievements in the field of magic theory. It is an honor to meet you.”
“… … .”
Amanda’s eyebrows twitched at the mention of Amanda’s history of making many achievements in the field of magic theory without being a wizard, but Lennok ignored him and reached for Amanda’s seat.
He lifts up the tablet in front of her, turns it on, and returns it to her.
“I don’t know how to present proof that I didn’t have the help of a dog-roe in the course of my research. Just-”
“No. It’s okay if you don’t present it. I guess those words are enough.”
Amanda interrupted Lennok, holding up the powered tablet with a cold expression.
“Finally, after confirming whether this is really worthwhile as a learning device, I will go back.”
“… … .”
A chilly atmosphere, as if poured with cold water.
Amanda, who broke the heat of the seminar with a few words in an instant, raised her hand to the screen of the tablet.
“Let’s see. Can I make it work like this?”
ugh… … !!
A light was lit on the other side of the tablet screen, and a magic list that could be learned spread out.
There are only three magic names on the wide screen.
Confirming the name, Amanda quietly frowned.
“radiation. variable. join? With the name learning device, is this the only magic that can be used?”
“We plan to increase the number of types of magic that can be learned through future updates.”
“Well, it must be magic that can be replaced with ordinary tools. Isn’t it?”
As Amanda snorted and pressed the magic spell written on light emission, the image of a magic circle appeared on the screen.
If you place your hand on the magic circle drawn on the screen and follow it, it helps you complete the magic circle by correcting the angle in real time.
The appearance of an auxiliary system that kindly informs the direction and order and displays the progress as if helping a child.
“Assistant Professor Bylon… … .”
Amanda, who was staring at it as if she was full of spirits, sighed and said,
“We don’t call it a learning device. A sample with no magical powers. It is enough to practice drawing along the magic circle in a sketchbook.”
Amanda raised one hand and sneered as she traced the magic circle drawn on the screen.
“The shape and structure of the magic circle are clumsy, and it doesn’t fit the basic principle of the magic circle at all. Did you mean to submit this kind of magic as a sample?”
Since the magic circle is so simple, it can be completed quickly with just a few taps on the screen with your hands.
A simple task that only takes a few minutes.
Amanda’s appearance is simultaneously relayed by hundreds of cameras as well as the audience gathered here.
Amanda was also showing the magic circle floating on the screen openly, as if she was aware of it.
Amanda, who completed the luminous magic circle without difficulty, proudly held it out in front of the camera.
“Come on, look. What can we learn from just this?”
“… … .”
“Seeing that hundreds of samples were made and handed out, the intention was to have us try out the learning device, but… … .”
Amanda shook her head.
“As Assistant Professor Bylon said, what use is this mere practice against a non-mage like me?”
The others look at Lennok as if they are looking for an answer, but he is just staring at him in silence with an unreadable expression on his face.
Even that calm reaction is enough to make it seem like he can’t properly refute Amanda’s point.
Amanda took a step forward and opened her mouth as if she were more convinced by Lennok’s reaction.
“Did you say luminous magic? I don’t know what kind of magic system I borrowed, but if I can learn this magic right now-” At
that moment, a tremendous light burst from the screen of the tablet Amanda was holding in her hand.
flash!!
The intangible power that does not end with emitting light, but a real and intangible force, pushed the camera that was shining on the screen.
“Huh!!”
“Get out of the way?!”
While the media and broadcasting staff, who had been adjusting the camera for a while, hurriedly backed away shouting.
Udang Tang Tang Tang!!
The shock caused dozens of cameras to fall over like dominoes, and the screen and focus became entangled.
Others looked away in shock at the sudden uproar, and the cameras that had not collapsed hurriedly captured the scene.
The wreckage of a camera that has been tangled here and there and Amanda standing in a daze holding a tablet in front of it.
There was no need to ask where the dazzling light that had just occurred came from.
“Uh how… … .”
Only Amanda’s stiff expression, shaking her whole body, vividly shows that this is not what she intended.
However, everyone who watched the situation was thinking of something other than Amanda’s reaction.
A mass-produced prototype tablet with no built-in horsepower.
And Senator Amanda, a former shaman who never learned magic in the first place.
Even though no conditions were met, Amanda must have just used her magic to knock the camera down.
Rather than borrowing the power of items or tools, it is a form of magic that is chanted using the magic that every human being is born with little by little.
“… … no way.”
“Nonsense. but… … .”
“Do not lie. Could such a thing be possible… … !!”
Realizing what that fact means, people hurriedly turn on the learning device and start drawing along the magic circle as if possessed.
A bizarre atmosphere in which no one speaks properly, yet they share a common excitement and heat.
It was only then that Lennok raised his microphone again in front of people with their heads down and tapping their tablet screens nonstop.
“I am still not sure how to prove that fastness did not help me in my research.”
“… … .”
“But of all the points you made about the learning device I made, there was one thing wrong.”
Lennok said that and stopped walking.
“This learning device is not for Rabatenon undergraduates. Not even to teach undergraduates new magic.”
Dig!!
At that moment, the officials who were touching the tablet shot up a dazzling light from my hand into the sky one by one.
Pod! Pod! Papababat!!
It didn’t end with one person, but the luminous bodies that shot up through the tablet screen in various places lit up the black magic tower hall ceiling.
“Oh oh oh… … !!”
Only the moans that someone shed can reveal the slightest bit of their appreciation for what they have done now.
Among those gathered here, there are those who are not magicians, and those who are not even magical users in the first place.
Those who do not have the talent for magic arts, and those who are born into a family or blood relative who cannot become a magician.
Even those who have not learned magic or chosen the path of a wizard for themselves.
system. property. Native. age.
Irrespective of all categories, everyone is using the same magic using their own magic.
Realizing this, the people stare blankly at the light they have created, then naturally turn their eyes towards Lennok.
Hundreds of eyes. Hundreds of cameras.
Only Lennok’s voice resonated clearly in the Mage Tower’s main hall, which was broadcast on hundreds of thousands of screens.
“A new magic that is allowed even for those who cannot handle magic well or who have not learned magic.”
Lennok, who slowly lifted the tablet, was silent for a moment.
Because I knew what I was going to say and how it would affect this city.
The reason why he explained the contents of the thesis to the dean and said that it was not Lenok’s own achievement.
The reason why Gwido Gyoju also tried to produce the module Lennok was looking for the other day.
It must be because the cult leader once tried to do what Lennok tried to do in this world.
It took a long time, but Lennok finally had the qualifications to ask this question.
“This tablet is a learning device designed to learn a completely different magic system.”
A fundamental question that Lennok had from the moment he first opened his eyes in this world.
The gap and absence between the knowledge he knew.
Non-existent knowledge that could never be explained without understanding the secrets of the world.
How long did it take to release it back into this third world and explain it.
By building new magic on a base different from others, he eventually transcends the hierarchy and reaches the level of a great wizard.
Until he finally returns to the magic he knew for the first time.
“Magic that is not bound by systems and systems. Magic that is not limited to attributes and categories. A new magic system that is allowed even to non-magicians.”
A scene of the night sky emerged as countless luminous bodies beautifully illuminated the dark Mage Tower hall like the Milky Way.
Lennok, who silently looked around at the people on the platform, opened his mouth slowly.
“I call this [common magic].”
Dexter, a common magic system used in World 1.0 and 2.0.
The third thesis Lennok created was the result itself to showcase the public magic directly to the public.
