-"Magic Forbidden Book Catalog".
This is a world with a modern background.
If calculated by age, it would be around the 21st century.
For Silvia, who lives in a learning and war city and is accustomed to all kinds of technology brought by Falling Star Engineering, there may be nothing surprising in this world.
However, in fact, this world is not ordinary, and it also possesses mystery.
In this world, there are mainly three camps.
One: It has been affecting the world in various forms since a long time ago, and has a magical camp of mystery and miracle.
Two: Since modern times, the sense of existence has begun to increase sharply, and the existence of magic is generally not known, but there has been a scientific camp of individuals who can use superpowers.
Three: The ordinary people who are strongly influenced by both the science camp and the magic camp at the same time, but don't particularly feel the abnormality of both sides.
Each of the three camps has its own position.
Except for the ordinary people who are basically only affected by both sides, the open and secret battles between the scientific camp and the magic camp are the themes of this world.
The magic camp gradually replaced by science.
The scientific camp eroding the mysterious realm.
The two sides can be regarded as raging, each occupying half of the world's rights, and fighting terrible battles in places unknown to the general public.
Of course, these are all fighting under the water.
As for ordinary people, they don't even know the existence of so-called magic. On the contrary, superpowers have a sense of existence, which is known to the world.
It's just that people with superpowers are not everywhere.
Almost all of these capable people are concentrated in one place.
-"School City".
Occupies one-third of Tokyo, is located in the west of Tokyo, occupies a part of Saitama and Kanagawa prefectures, a huge city with a population of 2.3 million.
As the name implies, this is a city dominated by students.
In the city, 80% of the population are students, and the remaining 20% are basically teachers and researchers. They are completely isolated from the outside world and possess the most cutting-edge technology that has been ahead of the world for more than 20 to 30 years. Representative of the scientific camp.
Here, all students will accept the development of superpowers, and they will be fully managed by an organization called the "General Council".
In order to prevent the leakage of technology and superpowers, the academy city has extremely strict restrictions on the entry and exit of the population, so it is actually a country, China, which enjoys independence and has cooperative organizations all over the world.
Therefore, basically, those with abilities can only be seen in the academy city, while superpowers are rarely seen in the outside world. For the general public, they only see existence on television.
At this moment, Fang Li and Silvia were in the academy city.
"Ding ding ding ding ding..."
The sound of trams arriving at the station and the sound of broadcasting faintly moved in the air.
"Baba Baba Baba..."
The horns of the vehicles were mixed together.
Along the road, wind generators, like large windmills, are slowly turning.
Robots that looked like white mechanical cylinders moved back and forth, some cleaning the trash on the ground, and some passing by following a fixed route as if they were patrolling.
Facing such a scene like the future world, the students in school uniforms were completely ordinary, talking and laughing as they walked past.
Fang Li and Silvia walked on such a path.
And, looking at those cleaning robots and guard robots, I was amazed.
"Then it exists like a simulacrum, right?"
Silvia said like this.
"Even on the road there are mimics, it's really luxurious."
In the city of learning warfare, there are also self-disciplined mimics who are responsible for various chores.
However, that is generally the scene that can only be seen in the Six University Park.
If it is on the street, the mimics are still very rare.
So, seeing this scene, Silvia was amazed.
After simply knowing the state of the world from Fang Li's mouth, Silvia quickly understood it in her own way.
"Simply put, the capable person is a witch and magician like me, who are born with a certain ability, while a magician is a Taoist priest like a dragon, who can use other methods to use all kinds of diversification. Ability?"
This understanding is basically correct.
Only the details were corrected by Fang Li.
"Accurately speaking, people with abilities are not born with abilities. They must go through the super ability development course in the academy city to develop their abilities. Those who are born with super abilities are called rough stones. Competence can only be acquired by developing courses."
The fundamental purpose of the Academy City is to develop superpowers for students.
These developed abilities vary from person to person, and are divided into various categories, but they are also divided into Lv (level) based on their value, strength, and applicability.
Lv.0 means inability, that is, an ability that cannot be measured or whose effect is extremely weak.
Lv.1 is low ability and can barely bend the spoon, which is basically not helpful to daily life.
Lv.2 is a different ability, which is slightly more useful than Lv.1.
Lv.3 is a strong ability that can be used in daily life and brings convenience to the degree.
Lv.4 is a great ability, an ability that can reflect the value of the tactical level in the army.
Lv.5 is a superpower that has the power to fight against an army alone. There are only seven people in the world, and they have rankings based on their respective values and effects.
In the academy city, most of the students are capable of between Lv.0 and Lv.2, and even about 60% of the students are incapacitated.
So, just like Silvia said, capable people are like witches and magicians. They are quite rare. People who are born with a certain kind of talent are also considered to be born with a certain ability.
In the academy city, no matter what kind of ability people are, they are receiving courses for developing ability.
Specifically, with the aid of drugs, hypnosis and various instruments, students’ brains are developed, so that people’s brains can derive their own individual reality, interfere with and influence the existing reality, and finally form superpowers. .
Therefore, the capable person is like the witch and the magician, both of which can only use a specific ability.
The magician uses rituals and techniques, like a Taoist priest, to consume magic power and use a variety of magic.
"Originally."
While walking on the road, Silvia sighed and said so straightforwardly.
"In short, regardless of the magician, the words of the capable person are basically regarded as experimental products, right?"
With that said, Silvia's face was extremely unpleasant.
