It turns out that in the world of magicians, there are nobility and high status. Silver bloodline and black iron mage are not the fantasy stories that I read on the Internet in my previous life. Magicians pursue the truth and explore knowledge. Mysteries are all bullshit.
Claude was still lying on the roof basking in the moonlight. The copying and deciphering of the eleventh page of the diary on the magic recipe made him feel a little tired. To be on the safe side, he decided to take a rest first.
It's just that the impact of the eleventh page of the diary on him was too great, and it simply overturned the impression he had of a magician from the Internet. He originally thought that a magician was a symbol of mysterious omnipotence. Any problem could be easily solved by just chanting a few spells. He was a representative of that kind of extraordinary power.
But I didn't expect that when the magician level was low, he would still have to work for a high-level magician, and even become cannon fodder and coolie. Moreover, he would be unable to advance in level due to lack of magic resources. This was different from the philosophy he learned when he was in college in his previous life. In class, isn’t the development of capital society demonstrated by dialectical materialism the same
When the upper class has the right to distribute social resources, the lower class will always be squeezed and exploited, and they will lose the opportunity to climb up their social status to the upper class. Because vested interest groups will avoid any challenge to their interests and social status, this is another mode of predatory behavior in the social jungle, just like wild animals occupying their own territory.
That's probably what it means, maybe the expression isn't quite correct. After all, it was the university I attended in my previous life, and it had been nearly ten years since I graduated. At that time, philosophy classes were boring and I often skipped classes. But now that I think about it, it makes perfect sense. Even in this magical world, the same applies.
But think about it, in the past life, in the peaceful era, it only took thirty years for my motherland to become the largest economic entity on the blue star, catching up with the self-proclaimed world's largest superpower. All this was done under the interference of those international hostile forces. Because I was not familiar with international rules, I suffered many dumb losses since the beginning of reform and opening up. However, my motherland still worked hard to catch up. In the end, it even forced those international organizations that claimed to be impartial to have to revise the rules themselves. to deal with
But at the same time, the cost of becoming the largest economic entity on Blue Star is an extremely sharp increase in resource demand. Before the time traveler came to this other world and became Claude, half of Blue Star's mineral raw material resources were exported to the motherland. These resource producing areas are all in the hands of international mineral groups. While the motherland's economy is taking off, these international mineral groups have also gained the greatest benefits. Just like leeches, they lie on the motherland's body and suck blood, and they will continue to do so. The blood sucks down.
Thirty years of peaceful economic development have transformed a country with a large population from a resource-exporting country into the world's largest resource-importing country. So compared to this Faslan world, it is not unimaginable that the magic civilization era of more than three thousand years has exhausted most of the world's magic resources. In particular, the magicians of that era had no concept of renewable utilization and sustainable development, so the silver magic nobles at the top who controlled the distribution of magic resources would naturally suppress the development of the black iron mages at the bottom.
No wonder Brother Davari in the diary said that the era of magical civilization is degenerating.
This is just like modern civilized society. Under the crisis of energy depletion, finding alternative energy sources has become an urgent matter. The response of the magicians in the diary is to find another plane with rich magic resources, but this plane is a bit difficult for the magicians.
Well, this situation is like that cartoon I watched on TV in my previous life. What was its name? A few robots drove a toilet-like spaceship to search for some endless energy in the universe.
After thinking wildly for a long time, Claude cheered up and returned to the attic to continue copying and deciphering the diary on the twelfth day, which was the thirteenth page of the magic recipe.
It was sunny on August 41, the 41st year of the Martin Calendar.
The messenger finally came today, and he brought the latest instructions from the Magic Deacons, requiring us to arrive in St. Pat's City before the end of the month.
On behalf of all the mages on standby in Jinshuilu Town, the Wuhuan Master of the Provisional Executive Committee hosted a banquet for this letter.
