455.Magic and Technology

"Magic technology? Little goblin, do you mean the technology like those toys made by the Moon Rabbits?"

As an expert in alchemy, Senior Mia is not unfamiliar with the term magic technology, but in her impression, this technology has always been just a toy.

Among the many worlds in the Western Universe, there are not only magical civilizations, but also technological civilizations. For example, the Moon Rabbit clan is actually a technological civilization.

It's just that the four major natural disasters standing at the apex of the universe are all magical civilizations. This shows that the current situation of those technological civilizations is embarrassing.

The apex of those technological civilizations is currently at the level of the top silver races like Yue Rabbit, which is considered powerful in the entire universe. However, in the eyes of natural disaster races like the witches, so-called technology is just a trail and a toy.

.

"Little goblin, although it is indeed a way to develop technology when we cannot obtain the power of the witch, the road of technology is essentially subordinate to the road of omniscience, and the knowledge reserves required to develop technology are too much.

It is simply impossible for us to build a complete technological system from scratch in a short period of time."

Senior Mia obviously knows her stuff, and she pointed out the shortcomings of the technological path to the point.

Generally speaking, magic and technology are opposed to each other, and this opposition stems from the differences in ideologies between the two parties.

The source of magic's power is the soul. Mages are almost all idealists. They believe that all great power ultimately returns to themselves. In essence, the end of this road is the realm of omnipotence.

The origin of science and technology is knowledge. Most scientists are materialists. They pay more attention to logic and rules and are good at using external objects. In essence, the end of this road is the state of omniscience.

This is the normal development path of magic and technological civilization. One is omnipotent and the other is omniscient, but in the end they will reach the same destination through different paths.

A highly developed magical civilization may look like a science fiction world at first glance, while many things in a highly evolved technological civilization are no different from magic to mortals.

It's just that the witches are obviously weird, they choose to have them all.

Both hands must be grasped and both hands must be strong.

There are two paths of omniscience and omnipotence in the world of witches. Seriously speaking, witches on the path of omnipotence are real witches, while witches on the path of omniscience are more like scientists wearing the cloak of a dharma master.

It's just that the witches changed careers halfway from a highly developed magical civilization. This means that even though the witches on the path of omniscience are essentially scientists, these scientists never think about how to develop technology, but instead use all of them to develop science and technology.

The research results have been invested in better improving the efficiency and power of magic.

Well, the proud works of great scientists in normal scientific and technological civilizations are all kinds of inventions, but the proud works of omniscient witches are all kinds of sophisticated magic models they have improved.

The reason for this difference is actually the same as the fact that the witches on the path of omniscience have been secretly envious of the talents of the witches on the path of omniscience. Who the hell wanted to take the path of omniscience from the beginning? That's not all.

I didn't have enough talent to be omnipotent, so I took the path of omniscience with a lower threshold, thinking that I could make up for my lack of talent with knowledge.

The same goes for those technological civilizations. The starting point of this type of civilization is usually a mortal civilization. Without magic talent, they cannot be magicians. They have control over the extraordinary power of magic and have to rely on their brains to create some inventions to improve their lives.

After all, if everyone was born to fly, would there be any need for airplanes to be invented?

It is precisely because the scientists of the technological civilization were born unable to fly that they used their wisdom to invent tools such as airplanes.

But witches can really fly.

Even if the witches who take the path of omniscience are poor students with "average qualifications", they are still superhuman per capita compared to mortals, so the "technology" they study in the future will naturally be technology suitable for superhumans, not mortals.

.

From another perspective, the spell models improved by those omniscient witches are actually "witch technology".

In other words, the "witch technology" mastered by the omniscient witches is actually too advanced and is several versions ahead. This is actually a late-stage technology of technological civilization.

After all, with the advancement of science and technology, special technologies such as biological modification and genetic evolution can allow mortals to evolve and gain extraordinary powers.

Although technological civilization generally arrogantly calls such evolvers "superpowers", in essence, these evolvers have just acquired the ability to control magic.

It's just that different people have mastered different magic powers, so there are various differences in abilities.

For example, a person who has mastered the magic power of life has a strong physical body and is a person with fighting superpowers. A person who has mastered the magic power of elements can control water and fire, and is a person with elemental superpowers.

The abilities of "superpowers" need to be developed to become powerful, and developing abilities generally requires something called a superpower program. Magicians generally refer to similar things to so-called superpower programs as spells.

Model.

See, isn’t this still the same goal through different paths?

Of course, the super program and the spell model only look similar, but they are still not exactly the same in essence. After all, the core of one is still idealistic, and the core of the other is still materialistic. The two are not fully compatible yet, and at most they are

You can just use each other's ideas as a reference.

Probably only by truly reaching the state of omniscience and omnipotence can the two be completely integrated.

But for now, there is no other technological civilization in the Western Universe that can refer to these "witch technologies". After all, the only one who controls the original magic power is the witch, and most other technological civilizations are still using level three.

Even with level four degenerating magic power, there are not many technological races that can use level two degenerating magic power like Yue Rabbit.

But even the Moon Rabbits find it difficult to refer to the witch's magic. After all, the energy matching between the two sides is different. You are a steam-powered difference engine, and I am a computer operated by electricity. The operating principles of both sides are different. It is difficult to copy each other's homework.

Difficult to copy.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In short, for now, witches hold a contemptuous attitude towards most so-called technologies. After all, those things are similar to toys in the eyes of witches. Those technological creations can

What they can do, they can only do better with magic.

Who knows that the witch's magic itself contains ultra-cutting-edge technological components?

The same is true for Senior Mia. She feels that taking the technological route is a dead end. She abandons the magical path that the witches have a basic foundation for and takes the technological path with a low upper limit. In her opinion, this really does not count.

What a good idea.

"I have the same idea as my senior sister. Miss, you are so people-oriented, don't you want to rely on these mortals? No matter how many mortals there are, they are just ants in front of the angels. No matter how many ants there are, they can't kill the dragon."

Not only was senior Mia opposed to it, Madeline also didn't agree with the plan, and the succubus girl also questioned it at this time.

In other words, the two cuties Alice and Audrey looked at each other and said nothing.

Alice is a bad student because she really doesn't understand much. She just follows her sister without any brains.

Audrey actually felt that her senior sister's method was somewhat inappropriate, but considering all the miracles that her senior sister had created before, she felt that she should not question her senior sister's decision based on her mortal wisdom, lest she be slapped in the face later.

Snapping sound.

When her senior sister took the nine-door joint entrance examination, she questioned her senior sister in the same way. In the end, it turned out that she was indeed too weak to have enough imagination.

Sure enough, Dorothy was prepared to speak when faced with the questions raised by senior Mia and Madeleine.

"Two seniors, you haven't forgotten that the Witch Battleship is actually a kind of magical technology."

With just one word, she left senior Mia and Madeleine speechless.

Although witches do fight on their own most of the time, all giant war weapons are really useful sometimes, and the pinnacle of giant war weapons is the witch battleship.

Although at this time they can still say that if they face a sage-level boss, most of the witch battleships will still be toys, but this is a bit too unreasonable.

"Miss, although the Witch Battleship is strong, you can't possibly rub it with your bare hands. That's unrealistic."

Madeleine seemed to want to persuade her a little more,

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw the eldest lady opposite suddenly put her hands on her hips with a proud look on her face, while senior Mia, who was on the same front with her just now, said nothing.

Ah this

The succubus girl was not a fool. When she saw this strange situation, she immediately realized a very outrageous possibility.

But this is a bit too unmagical. Miss, even if you can pass the nine-level joint examination, a single man-made ship is still too high. The Demon King was not as cheating as you back then.

Madeleine still didn't believe it. After all, she was not a member of the Witch's House Society and had not participated in the previous shipbuilding process.

But her own sister participated.

"Sister, it's true. Senior sister, she just built a battleship not long ago. It is now the car of our club. It is made of a bunch of building materials. It can jump to the spiritual world. The power of the main gun is at the level of nine-ring magic.

.”

Audrey looked at her sister's unbelievable look, and she quickly secretly transmitted the message.

Madeleine: "."

The chairman of the Disciplinary Committee was speechless now. His sister is a good child and never lies. So this is actually true?

grass.

The succubus girl immediately cursed in her heart. She really aimed to arm witches as her career goal. Naturally, she knew the value of witch warships very well. If they could really build a few witch warships in this witch night, they would all

You don't need many high-end battleships, just ordinary ones will do. You can just eat hot pot and sing songs, and then go directly to the angels' lair and bombard the church's holy city with one bomb.

"Little goblin, but do you still retain your memory? Shouldn't that knowledge be sealed?"

Senior Mia was also a little excited at this time, but she calmed down and asked again.

"Well, it is true that they are still sealed, but senior sister, you have to know that knowledge cannot be completely taken away, especially the knowledge that you have completely mastered. The power of Lord God King only temporarily blocks our memory, but

It's like a dry riverbed. As long as it rains, the river will still regenerate quickly."

Dorothy nodded, admitting it at first, but her face remained confident.

"As long as you give me a little time, I can quickly regain that knowledge."

Regarding this explanation, Senior Sister Mia nodded, she believed it.

After all, in the God King's small class recently, she herself found that it was much easier to learn alchemy than other magics, and she could often draw inferences as she learned it, making her progress much faster than when she first learned it when she was a child.

.

Naturally, this cannot be because she has become a genius, it is simply because the memory residue in her brain has been revived. As the chief of the contemporary alchemy school of Witch Academy, she was originally an alchemist master. Even if her memory is gone, her instincts, vision, touch, etc.

Intangible things still exist.

If she is like this, then the goblin who is smarter than her must be even more like this.

If the goblins can really build the witch battleship in the end, then even if the God King does not awaken and they cannot obtain the power of the witch, then there is still the possibility of resistance, at least they will not be beaten without the ability to fight back.

.

"If that's the case, then I have no objection and I will fully support you."

Senior Sister Mia nodded and said so.

She now understands why the little goblin wants to take the road of technology. This is to prepare for building warships in the future. After all, after everyone loses the power of the witch, it will be a bit difficult to build a ship with bare hands. So first, there must be a certain amount of industry

It will be much more convenient if you are technologically advanced.

And if individuals are not good enough, then of course they have to rely on the strength of the collective. After all, only by concentrating our efforts can we accomplish great things.

Only then did the Golden Princess somewhat understand the second purpose of putting people first.

Although those mortals are not good at fighting, they can still come in handy if they are just assisting in work.

Senior sister Mia nodded, Madeline didn't say anything more, and she didn't object too much.

Although as a pure warrior, she actually does not like to sit in a battleship and control the turret to shoot. Instead, she prefers to go to the battlefield and fight with people head-on. However, she herself also understands that before gaining the power of the witch, such an idea would be impossible.

It's not reliable. After all, she can't ask the eldest lady to give her a mecha or something just to take care of her.

The eldest lady is already a ship builder, how could she still be able to build a mecha?

However, on the other side, Dorothy was planning more things in her heart.

In fact, in war, as long as the difference in frontal combat effectiveness is not large, the final battle is often about logistics capabilities.

Isn't it a coincidence that she, the civil witch, is best at logistics? After all, her spider teacher is best at building war facilities on the battlefield.

Well, I have to first find a way to prepare a few giant soldiers that Teacher Spider taught me to prepare for construction, and open a few arsenals first.

Damn it, I promised to be a real estate tycoon, but inexplicably ended up becoming a professional counterpart. I shouldn't have learned the war puppet technique from Teacher Spider in the first place. It's really unlucky.

In addition to shipbuilding and war construction techniques, the magic of the Witch of the Forest series cannot be wasted. The normal witch's magic system is based on idealism and is incompatible with technological civilization. However, the witch system has been materialistic in my previous life.

Created with doctrine as the core, it seems to be compatible with technological civilization.

"Okay, now that everyone agrees with this tone, we should discuss the specific plan."

Dorothy didn't think any more. She quickly continued the meeting and said this.

"If we want to climb the science and technology tree, we need a complete industrial system and a set of relevant scientific research institutes to study science and technology. Secondly, we need enough materials and resources, and in order to coordinate everything, we need a strong leadership organization

.”

"And at the end of the day, what we need now is actually just enough wealth and talent."

"Everyone, we will create a prosperous world and a great civilization with our own hands."

Dorothy was talking eloquently.
