The Ominous Lord of the Skaven

Chapter 205 Newborns and the Future of Magic Technology

But before the construction of the automatic magic filling machine was launched, Ickert got another exciting news.

The mother mouse gave birth!

The pregnancy period of the rat people was very short. Since the first batch of female rats appeared on the territory, the female rats also became pregnant one after another in the following days.

In the love education camp, the first batch of more than 30 newborn rats have been gathered here.

Thanks to the customs of the traditional Skaven society, none of the Ratmen claimed these children, so they were naturally thrown into the love education camp.

This naturally facilitates Ickert's socialization.

At this moment, a group of Ratmen who have received elementary school education have been selected to take care of them.

These newborn ratmen look like real rats, and many ratmen are now seeking to be nursed by public female rats.

And just like the squirrels born from the womb of the broodmother, the squirrels were born with the color of fate.

Rogue squirrel, black storm squirrel, and a rare white mouse!
"this is only"

Ickert looked at the white-gray rat man with two small horns on his head, and couldn't believe it.

Luck is really a bit too good!

"Congratulations to your clan leader, our clan has ushered in the first Gray Seer!"

Gray Prophet, that is, the natural spellcaster among the rat people, is a fairly stable source of spellcasters for the territory.

Gray prophets are not necessarily white-haired, but legally speaking, all ratmen with horns on their heads belong to the gray prophet clan.

Some clans would cut off the horns on the heads of newborn rats in order to obtain spellcasters. Of course, even so, there were still risks, but for the different world Ikto, he could do whatever he wanted.

"Take him to the castle. I will train this kind of rat myself in the future."

The spellcasting ability of the horned rats is guaranteed by talent. These ratmen will most likely become the backbone of the territory's spells in the future, so they must be cultivated well.

At the same time, Ickert is also a little curious, if the sissy potion is further improved, can it really be possible to pierce a white-haired mouse-eared sissy.

"Biochemical experiments must also be put on the agenda."

With so many rats now, Ickert has no shortage of experimental materials.

After protecting this precious horned rat, Ickert turned his attention to the remaining three storm rats.

"These have to be handed over to humans for training."

Loyalty education must start from the baby. Compared with the rat man who always has a rebellious mind in his mind, it is obviously better to find a reliable human being.

These Stormrats will be trained as Praetorian Guards, the ultimate force to consolidate the power of Ikot.

As for the rest of the squirrels, obviously the only way to go is to throw them into the school and come out to work. If there are smart ones among them, Ickert doesn't mind giving them a chance to be promoted.

After leaving the love education camp, Ickert came to the Ministry of Industry to discuss the source of magic power with the mages.

"I found that for thousands of years, mages have always had a misunderstanding."

Ickert said that this cheered up the mages under him, not wanting to miss a single word.

"What is it? My lord, no, Prophet Ikett, please don't be tricky."

Virgil said anxiously, his eagerness was exactly the same as that of a high school student who wanted to go to the cafeteria to cook.

Seeing this, Ickert no longer concealed his thoughts.

"I believe that everyone has some understanding of magic power and magic pressure, and you know that magic crystals can be charged by compressing magic power.

This is actually the same principle as our usual meditation. In fact, the first magic machine we made applied this principle.

Gentlemen, if magic is compressible, what do you think it is? "

Ickert's words sparked the thinking of the mages.

This is an extension of objects that are getting smaller and smaller. The mages exhausted their imagination to search, but they were finally defeated because of their knowledge.

"we do not know."

In the eyes of these mages, magic power is magic power. What else can it have to do with it?
"Okay, then let's think about it from another angle, use your respective magic organs to perceive, what does the smallest component of magic look like to you?"

Ickert changed the way of saying it, and guided the mages to start exploring, and the best exploration tool at present is the magic vision.

"Lafayette, what did you see?"

"A group of light blue clouds and mist, but the mist seems to be mixed with smaller things. It is a bright spot."

"What's between the highlights and the highlights?"

"It's a gap! That's how it is!"

Lafayette understood instantly.

"The smallest units of magic power are not closely connected! As long as you find a way to narrow the gap between them, you can get more solid magic power and higher magic pressure!

It turns out that this is the underlying principle of spell advancement!This has nothing to do with bullshit patience and xinxing practice at all! "

The other two mages also responded one after another.

"It is true, but what does this have to do with the magic power we are desperately in need of?"

Sir Rollman asked anxiously.

"Before we talk about this last key issue, we might as well think about the forbidden magic and the Philosopher's Stone."

Under the guidance of Eckert, the mages began to recall the knowledge about the Philosopher's Stone and forbidden magic materials.

"In the early days of the empire, the first sage took out a dark blue gemstone from Lycarion Mountain, and the energy contained in it was enough to release thousands of ninth-level spells!"

"Forbidden magic, refers to the property that magic power cannot penetrate into certain materials and affect them"

The mages extracted this knowledge from their minds one by one, and Ickert also began to explain further.

After the three of Lafayette heard it, they couldn't believe it at first, but their expressions became more and more exciting, and finally they started jumping up and down regardless of their faces, hitting their heads on the ground!

"People in the world have been studying magic for so long, and they have been on the first floor!"

"This is crazy! No! I'm going to be a fish right now! Or a pangolin! I'm going to the ocean! I'm going to the mountains! I'm going to stand with the future of the world!"

"For nothing! I'd rather not learn magic!"

The three mages shed tears one by one, and the scene was not exaggerated.

But for these mages who are pursuing the truth of the world, what Ickert said has almost pointed out the path of mages for thousands of years in the future, as the saying goes, "If you hear the Tao in the morning, you can die in the evening."

The mages will not commit suicide, but it is also difficult to conceal the shock and joy in their hearts.

"Prophet! I'll write to my friends right now! Tell them to join you!"

Siroman was the first to say, since we know the feasibility and infinite future of this road, then if we don't firmly support Ickert at this time, when will we wait?

Lafayette and Virgil also expressed their willingness to write letters for him to attract mage talents to the territory.

In addition to thanking Ikert for this, he was able to direct the manufacture of the automatic magic charging machine with more confidence.
