Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 591

After Ratti asked this question, Paul hesitated for a while in his heart.

"Dear Ratti..." He hesitated but replied in an extremely sincere tone, "If what I said next offends you and the group you belong to, then I apologize here first."

Hearing what Paul said, the doubts in Radi's heart became more and more intense.

Paul stood up and looked out of the window facing the south wall, his back turned to Ratty, who he seemed unwilling to face.

"The current magic, in my opinion, is an extremely unstable force. You can say that my worry is a kind of joke similar to worrying that the sky will fall, but in any case, I don't want the development of human society to depend on A force that has not yet stabilized."

Paul's words let Ratty understand a little bit. My family knows their own affairs. The current magic is indeed very unstable as Paul said. Instability is firstly reflected in the birth of the caster. This seems to be an extremely rare randomness. You can't directly deduce whether a person can become a spellcaster and when he will become a spellcaster. Although there have been rumors among spellcasters, If both parents are spellcasters, the child is more likely to be a spellcaster, but there is indeed no exact statistical data to support it. In addition, the ability of the spellcaster is uncertain. Some spellcasters can master all kinds of spells, while others can only master one or two types of spells. Before he really comes into contact with spells, it is impossible to infer what spells he can master. Even the spell itself is uncertain, or mysterious. People don't know why they chant the spell, why they make the casting action, or prepare the materials for the spell. Everything seems to depend on The experience accumulated by generations of mages-that will be effective, so just do it.

"However, it's just an experiment. Is it necessary to be so vigilant?" Ratti was still puzzled.

"It's necessary, it's called anti-micro-duration!"

"Prevent the passing of time?"

"Yes, I don't want the scientific development of mankind to rely on so-called magic, not at all, even if magic becomes stable and easy to control someday in the future. Oh, maybe stable and easy-to-control magic will be of great help to the vast number of people. For mere mortals, things are going to get worse."

Paul spoke a little hastily, and inadvertently made his words a little rude.

This made Ratti very uncomfortable, and she felt that she was slightly irritated.

"Paul, you still say that you have no prejudice against magic?"

Paul waved his hands in front of his chest, "Ma'am, I didn't mean to make you angry on purpose, you know."

Ratti also noticed that she was a little agitated, and tried to calm down her heart.

"According to my observation and judgment, in any case, spellcasters are an absolute minority in the human race. It is very dangerous for human society to become dependent on such a small group. First, when the dependence has reached a certain level After a certain level, if for some reason, the number of spellcasters is greatly reduced, it may cause the development of human society to stagnate or undergo a major regression. Think about it, in extreme cases, all technical routes may have to be restarted. Terrible scene. Both…”

At this moment, Paul's words became dull.

"Although I don't want to try to figure out people's hearts in a bad direction, but when spellcasters find out how much the entire human society relies on themselves, will they regard themselves as a member of human beings, as friends in ordinary people's lives, and at work? Assistant? Let me tell you, I am afraid that spellcasters will feel that they are superior to others, and some extreme ones may be the savior of human civilization. At that time, a ruling class that is so strong that it is almost unshakable will naturally be born. "

"Hehe, Lord Graman, as a nobleman, it's a bit ridiculous for you to say such things!"

Rudy said sarcastically that it was the first time she spoke to Paul in this tone.

"Ah, yes, this is indeed an embarrassing fact." Paul touched his nose, accepting the thorn in Rady's words.

"However, it is precisely because I happen to be in a similar position that I am sure that if the caster is really in that highly dependent state, human civilization will 100% slide into a bad future. Moreover, the noble The things used to coerce ordinary people—honor, oath, blood, are all relatively imaginary things. When people's thinking develops to a certain extent, these things will naturally lose their effect. But spellcasters are different, they The ability of ordinary people is a real coercion for ordinary people. The deeper they are bound to human society, the stronger this coercion will be. Based on this, spellcasters may gain the most powerful dominance in history , to be truly immutable.”

Paul's words made Rudy very frustrated. She stomped on the floor, "I didn't expect you to think so much, I... I just want to help you."

"Oh, dear Lady, I thank you for your kindness." Paul comforted him, "Actually, if it is really impossible to advance the goal after exhausting all conventional means, I don't mind accepting the help of magic, but it is still far away. Not yet."

"Why not now? Look how big the alchemists are." Rady asked.

"No, it's still far from that time." Paul repeated this sentence again with great confidence. "There must be some way to overcome Wells and others."

He winked at Ladi, "Let mortals try to overcome various difficulties by themselves, use their talents, and establish a development path that completely belongs to the majority. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"

Tennyson came out of the archives in the chemistry lab very wearily. He hadn't closed his eyes for two days and two nights in a row, during which he frantically looked up information about phlogiston.

He felt that he should first figure out what exactly phlogiston is.

With such thoughts in mind, Tennyson once again had to walk towards the school cafeteria, "Hey, isn't this Tennyson? I heard that you offended Mr. Graham?"

After turning a corner, Tennyson ran into a man, former classmate Nick.

Speaking of this Nick, he is an eye-catching presence in Weiss Academy. Since the end of the Usurper War, the Government Council has sent several surveying and mapping teams to Emden for surveying and mapping, and Nick was in one of them. But this guy's mind is very flexible, he used trigonometric functions to solve the problem of artillery surveying and mapping, and was rewarded by the lord after he came back.

Now Nick doesn't often go to the academy anymore. He and a few friends have established a company that specializes in selling so-called optical equipment, such as rangefinders, telescopes and the like.
