Just as everyone was looking up at the planetarium, Hoffman, who was sitting next to Mrs. Schmidt, spoke again.
"It's ridiculous, it's so ridiculous... Are you worthy of talking about history? Any mage with historical knowledge should know that scholars in ancient times had the need to observe stars, so they had the original idea of building a star astrology device!"
Mrs. Schmidt covered her face in pain.
Mo Lin smiled helplessly and shook his head again.
Can't you just give it to me like this?
"Dear Mr. Hoffman, why do you think I don't know that ancient scholars had a hobby of stargazing? Or, in other words, why do you think ancient scholars conducted astronomical observations?"
"Why?" Hoffman, who is a seventh-level registered mage, felt that he had been ridiculed and fooled by his apprentice, "Why do you say!? Of course it is to try to interpret destiny from the stars. Of course, this has been proven long ago.
It’s all in vain! Then there’s the matter of perfecting the calendar so that…”
Suddenly, he turned pale and stopped talking.
ha!
The musicians in the audience were activated again and stretched their necks forward.
They saw an extremely rare scene. A core member of the alliance blew himself up in front of everyone!
Mo Lin quietly made the last stab.
"You underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, Mr. Hoffman. Limited by the times, they are indeed studying astrology, but the best and wisest among them have long recognized the limitations of this method. Otherwise, how could they not mix it in a little bit?
Magic and occultism are entirely based on astronomical observations and mechanical engineering is used to build this planetarium?"
Winter winter winter winter winter!
The sound of knuckles tapping on the table was heard from the audience again. This time, it was a gesture of recognition and respect to Molin.
"If they just want to improve the calendar, assist the kingdom in developing agriculture, and formulate policies, then they only need three models of the sun, blue star, and moon, so why add the five planets?
"You are wrong, Mr. Hoffman, I must point this out. The fact is obvious. The Platinum Mages nine centuries ago spent huge sums of money to build this astrology purely to satisfy their thirst for knowledge and to explore the universe.
The truth of time. Even in the era of low magic power, the mages still had the same aspirations and ambitions as Ricardo and Mr. Evans later!
"Spells and science are just tools. Seeking knowledge and seeking truth is the ultimate goal! So mages in the past era didn't care at all about which tool they used.
"But this has changed in modern times. With the advent of the industrial revolution, mages who are obsessed with the past believe that it is the scientific community that has robbed the fruits of their own interests. It is science and industry that make mages no longer dominate the battlefield and can no longer dominate the battlefield.
Use your military exploits to gain a vast fiefdom and a luxurious clan castle!"
The scene was silent again. Power and wealth are what most people yearn for, and they will not fade with the emergence of spellcasting talent. Instead, they will become more urgent.
The mood in the entire dark blue hall has been completely dominated by Molin, rising and falling with his impassioned speech, precise factual presentation and logical deduction.
He looked at this childish behavior and struggled to restrain himself from laughing out loud on the spot.
"good!"
Someone in the back row broke the rules of the Deep Blue Hall and applauded loudly, which immediately caused an extremely serious chain reaction.
"well said!"
"good!
"
"Maureen Julien!"
"Everyone, be quiet!
"
Lucas seemed to be trying to maintain order, but in fact he shouted louder than anyone else.
Alva Gustafson, the old sage from the Winterwind Islands, exhaled a long breath.
It is extremely unusual that someone needs to maintain order in the dark blue hall.
He had attended hundreds of meetings under this blue dome in his life, and it was completely unheard of for the host to yell at young people to shut up.
The old era ends and the new era begins.
"It turns out that this is the real opening speech..." Alva whispered to himself amidst the noise. "A mage apprentice who has not yet graduated, instead of the old guys, announces the raising of the curtain. This is the perfect arrangement of the goddess of fate.
…”
"presumptuous!
"Mrs. Schmidt roared, completely giving up her sophistry and entering a violent table-turning state.
"What qualifications do you have to speak on behalf of all spellcasters! What qualifications do you have to deny everything that has been done by your predecessors? Who do you think you are!?"
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguoyuedu to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Yeguoyuedu is available for Android and Apple.]
Mages rely on their strength to speak, and this will not change in the past or in the future.
If any stupid young man could come on stage and accuse everyone here of being scum, then the academic world would have been in chaos.
However, this time, Mrs. Schmidt found that Maureen did not look directly at her or meet her gaze like before.
He actually turned around.
"Where is he looking?"
1,500 people followed his gaze and looked at one of the giant pillars supporting the dark blue hall.
When Mrs. Schmidt saw the line of inscriptions that Maureen was looking at clearly, she felt an extreme sense of fear.
"It's impossible...he can't think that way...he can't do that..."
On the pillar, there is a gold-plated inscription written on one of the "seven major magic problems" that was proposed 2000 years ago and remains unsolved to this day.
Intellectual upgrading: Through magic means, the level of human intelligence is improved. This allows humans to analyze more complex problems, perform more complex calculations, and obtain more comprehensive and accurate answers to various mathematical or literary and historical problems.
There is a space above the description of each puzzle for future solvers. When they solve the puzzle, their names and statues will be placed.
In the nine centuries since the Dark Blue Hall was built, those spots have remained empty.
The mages have even acquiesced that they will remain empty until the end of time.
In an instant, the venue went from completely noisy to another extreme.
There was complete and eerie silence, no one even made any slight movement, they were completely frozen.
Alfred heard his own heavy breathing clearly.
In the center of the venue, Maureen Julien solemnly made a promise in the presence of more than 1,500 academic elites.
"Before the end of this platinum event, I will give the answer to the question of 'Intelligence Upgrading' in the 'Seven Magical Puzzles'. This will be my self-certification of the so-called 'qualifications'."
All the spellcasters in the audience were silent for a full ten seconds. When they finally confirmed that they heard correctly, they burst into thunderous applause, table knocks and cheers.
Lucas' shouts to maintain order were completely drowned out, and he immediately gave up the attempt. He was in disbelief, but looked at the podium with confidence from the bottom of his heart.
"Does he know what he just said..."
Later, the noise in the hall was gradually replaced, and gradually converged into a name that was chanted over and over again, clear and loud.
