Arcane Lord

"Uncle Ebbock, Master De Parker, I will give you the simplest example. I went to Sevinton a few days ago, and a brand-new communication artifact has appeared over there, priced at 1,500 gold coins. What do you think they cost?"

　　 "At least 5 or 600 gold coins!"

　　 "If Tilak is made by them, the cost is less than 300 gold coins!"

"This is impossible!"

　　 It's not just Abbock and De Parker who don't believe it, even Niya has a somewhat hesitant expression, "Chateau, are you true?"

　　 "Of course it is true! Haven't you guys focused on the Tilak Lab at all?"

　　 "It's [Eternal Magic]?! They researched it out?" Ebbock, who knew better about it, immediately asked.

　　 "It's not just eternal magic, eternal magic can only reduce the cost of materials, and for a magic item, finished materials can only account for a small number, and the real majority is labor, the labor cost of the caster!"

　　 Then, Chateau summoned Taring, pulled out a projection, and said to Abbock and others: "Look, this is the scene in the public floor 021 workplace. What do you think of?"

　　021 is a production line in the workshop. Of course, the official wizard-level magic mechanic has not yet been in place, and for the time being, there are only apprentice-level mechanics.

　　 But only from these you can get the whole picture.

　　From the beginning of the production line, a small mithril ingot has undergone multiple rounds of inspection and entered the alchemy circle. The magician with the ability to cast spells skillfully performs auxiliary line drawing, shaping and other processes on it.

　　 is then transformed into a standard component, flows into the hands of the next apprentice, and flows into the final assembly line after multiple comparisons with standard gauges.

　　 is finally assembled with other mithril components to form the core of the magic item, and finally encapsulated by a skilled craftsman using a magic scroll. (This is considered a semi-finished product. The packaging and the following link magic net and inspection need to be done by a formal mage, and there is a shortage of people now)

　　 Within a short period of time, Ebbock and others witnessed the manufacturing process of various Mithril components and a semi-finished crystal ball being put into a wooden box.

　　 Seven or eight crystal **** have been neatly stacked in the wooden box, and in the corner of the workshop, similar small wooden boxes have been placed in a row.

　　 Chateau turned off the projection and continued to explain:

"This is the current team of magic mechanics in the Tower of Time. Through them, the production cost of any magic item can be reduced by at least 20%. Of course, you should not think that this kind of division of labor and cooperation is only available in the Tower of Time. Many wizard towers over there have already done this!"

　　 Of course, Xia Duo scared them. Although he guessed that there was already a mage tower on the Sevindon side that had started a division of labor and cooperative production, he was not sure where it would go.

　　 However, with the on-site demonstration by the Tower of Time's own magic mechanic, he won't be too abrupt no matter how much he exaggerates others.

　　 In fact, Xia Duo had already mentioned to Abbock and Niya that there might be a new production method in Seventon, but they did not pay attention to it.

"From now to the future, the production of magic items has entered an era of cost reduction competition. Even if you are unwilling to accept it, other mage towers will not take care of your feelings! Until the future, no one of the towers of time will be sold. At that time, I can’t wait to regret it again!"

　　 Seeing the efficient foundry scene of the Tower of Time with my own eyes, coupled with Xia Duo’s well-intentioned persuasion, Abbock and De Parker finally accepted this reality, but——

　　 "What does this have to do with actively training low-level mages? Are there many apprentices now?"

"It's a big deal. Once the competition starts, it will be compared to who can have cheaper industrial workers. What else can be compared to treating the caster as an ordinary person! The more casters, the lower the natural cost, and at the same time, Related to the nature of competition, it is the strength of each mage tower. If the strength is too weak, how can it protect such a large market!"

　　 After all, whether it is selling magic items to make money, or other ways to make money, only when the Tower of Time itself is strong can you have the confidence to do those things!

　　 If you want the Tower of Time to be strong, in addition to the improvement of quality, quantity is also very important. After all, even the Great Arcanist is not strong enough to ignore the number of (casters).

After speaking, Xia Duo looked around again, and said in a low voice, "Don’t you think there are too few people in the Tower of Time? The seven towers rely on a large amount of territory input to maintain the Great Arcanist from generation to generation, the Tower of Time What?"

　　 This remark is of course exaggerated and fictitious, and it selectively ignores that the Tower of Time is a heritage of blood, while the seven towers have actually become a collection of excellent heritage.

It’s just that today’s Xia Duo has been regarded as the apex of the best talent in the Tower of Time, and also the apex of the power position. This sentence is naturally not too contradictory, and it is easy for people to subconsciously ignore the possibility of being surpassed by others. .

　　 Of course, as far as Xia Duo himself is concerned, he is not worried about the bad consequences caused by being overtaken by others. After all, the Seven Towers still have to be scrupulous.

Furthermore, Niya’s great-grandfather and great arcanist Saville is about to return. When the time comes, the Tower of Time will be one of the proper sixteen constants of resistance. The Tower of Time will produce a genius great arcanist, which will only increase the Tower of Time. the weight of. UU reading www. uukahnshu. com

　　 Falling on the practical level, again, if there is no permission from the upper person (usually a mentor), it is almost impossible to have a new great arcanist. If he feels threatened, he will be killed directly. How can he continue to be promoted!

　　 Hearing the almost naked hint of Chateau, Abbock immediately moved. If he didn't feel much before, but now he knows that the future will require human competition, a large number of people, and even more people to give birth to the Great Arcanist.

　　 There is almost no second way to go. Enrollment must be expanded and actively cultivated!

　　 "I agree, but we need to observe for a period of time. If the effect is not good or there is any accident, I hope to stop immediately!"

"of course!"

　　 Regarding Ebbock’s mature words, Xia Duo naturally agreed. He knew that once the college-style collective training began, it would be difficult to stop.

　　 The pressure of reality, the temptation to draw cakes, and perhaps some ideal influences, he finally convinced Abbock and De Parker.

　　 As for Niya, Chateau is not worried, young people are always willing to accept new things!

After 　　 and De Parker finalized the transfer of the low-level mage relationship, Xia Duo hurriedly left. The transfer of the relationship to the low-level mage is very simple on paper, just a data change.

　　 But those who are alive are in trouble. They need to arrange their studies and work so that the Academic Affairs Office can truly become the Academic Affairs Office. This can't be solved in a few words.
