Arcane Linguist

Chapter 331: The struggle continues, and criticism comes as expected
"Sure enough, someone jumped out."

In the mage tower, in the academy office.

Roland sat behind the big table, looked at the letter transmitted by the magic circle, sighed without any surprise, and then picked up a pen and wrote an instruction on it: "Actively respond to the complaint and resolve it as soon as possible."

Then he condensed his magic power and put his own secret mark on it.

Just send it back to the small teleportation array.

Atrein and the alliance of some arcane countries attach great importance to patent rights, and the legal system they have constructed has created Roland's wealth to a certain extent and protected his interests.

If you don't follow this set of rules, you can easily be excluded from the wizarding world.

But at the same time, it also serves the larger plutocrats and powerful people. Sometimes it is used in turn and becomes a stick to beat people.

So what he then said to Queen Rosa was: "Find a way to avoid the freeze and the entanglement of the controversial part."

The research of the research, the production of the production.

Can a living person die from holding in his urine?

Rosa asked: "What if they make a fuss about this again and continue to struggle?"

Roland said: "Sometimes, the methods of disgusting people are not only used by the enemy, but also by us."

He said this with confidence.

In a short period of time, the Scroll Association did not have the ability to go to Reiner World to investigate and execute.

So what can they do besides denounce it?
This is the advantage of the school controlling the base area.

The means that Rawls can use are only effective outside Reiner's world, trying to limit development to this world.

They fully understand the nature of this matter and the extent to which it can be achieved.

……

"Did those people take the wrong medicine? Can they even sue for this?"

"No, how dare you claim that those patented technologies are similar to those used in Siris Talisman? Then they are completely different things, okay?"

"Although some basic parts are obtained from the Scroll Association, haven't we already obtained some authorizations through transactions before?"

"Even if there is no transaction, it has already passed the protection period and entered the public domain, right?"

"Someone will wake up those guys!"

Compared with Roland's indifference, everyone within the school reacted much more violently.

Not only did they curse on the internal platform, they also went outside to denounce it fiercely, which attracted a group of people to echo and support.

Those are all hoping to enter this field and explore and research.

The lawsuit initiated by the Scroll Association will hinder the development of arcana.

How could the mages not see through this malicious use of the law as a tool?
They can still tell whether it is based on safeguarding legitimate interests.

For a time, the mages who sympathized with and supported the Seris school of thought gained the upper hand.

Because Roland has mastered too many arcane research resources, and has always adhered to the spirit of open source and sharing of benefits, it has also effectively promoted the development of a number of industries.

Even if you don't directly enjoy these benefits, you can still get some benefits just because of the trend of the times.

So this time, the supporters had the upper hand.

Moreover, Roland is no longer a nobody.

This little trouble does not fall on him.

Even Pendos, who was beaten as a punching bag, did not appear in court in person.

He entrusted an agent to fight the lawsuit, while he continued to devote himself to the laboratory and busy with his own affairs.

If it were a pawn who had not yet achieved success or was not protected by the school, he might really be hindered in his research.

……

"Sir Roland, recently the material manufacturers in other worlds have been affected by lawsuits and have suspended supply to this world. In addition, the effects of some self-developed magic papers are also very unsatisfactory...

Not only in terms of materials, but also in various manufacturing processes...

For the time being, the relevant indicators of level 0 spells are still satisfactory, but if it is upgraded to a field above level 1, the effect will be obviously much worse..."

In mid-June, in the mage tower.

Roland contacted a paper mill set up on the outskirts of Tyrui through the communication circle in the tower, and the person in charge informed him of the current situation.

But after telling Roland the bad news, the person in charge quickly told Roland some good news.

“But after many visits, we found that deep in the Tyrell Mountains, as well as in the western part of the Northen Territory, as well as in the southwest coastal areas, there are some products similar to Valonado leaves.

They are also magical tree species that have the remnants of the World Tree, and the corresponding supply channels should be established within the year..."

The Valonado leaves he was mentioning now were captured when he killed the sea elves Artemia and Direis at the end of the previous year.

It is a kind of palm leaf with an unusually wide main branch. After drying, it can be used as a carrier for writing.

Among them, the one containing the blood of the World Tree is called the Brahmanado leaf, which means "scroll" and can be used as a material for magic scrolls that carry high-level spells!

After Roland got it, he attached great importance to it and began to explore the various possibilities of "papermaking".

Although "papermaking" is not directly related to linguistics itself, strictly speaking, it is also an important factor that can affect a country's national script.

Because it is the "carrier" of words, its material determines the writing tools, and even affects the development of calligraphy to a certain extent!

When he first started studying calligraphy, Roland already had a deep understanding of why the carrier is important.

Oracle bone inscriptions are carved on tortoise shells or animal bones with a knife, cuneiform inscriptions are mostly written on clay tablets, and a few are written on stone, metal or wax tablets. Bronze inscriptions are cast on bronze vessels using the casting method.

Later, there were bamboo slips, cloth, and straw paper.

It was not until Cai Lun improved papermaking that it became possible to popularize paper on a large scale, and pen and ink gradually spread, and writing and books became popular.

The popularity of novels in the Ming and Qing Dynasties also benefited from the development of printing technology to some extent. These can be traced in the history of Blue Star in previous lives.

He is based on the history of thousands of years and has a very far-reaching view of these issues.

The magic industry that has recently been dedicated to Reiner World wants to promote the development of magic cards, scrolls, talismans and other industries at the same time. It must not limit its attention to them themselves, but must focus on more fundamental factors.

The most concerning thing is the papermaking technology.

It is the root of everything.

After ending the communication, Roland recalled the miscellaneous knowledge in the magical world that he had learned before.

“The level of productivity development in the arcane world is far from comparable to that of ordinary ancient feudal society, but when it comes to paper and text with magical power, it is also lacking.

Many ancient scrolls were even written on tanned parchment or the skins of other magical beasts.

It is generally believed that the flesh, flesh and soul of high-level monsters are rich in magical energy, and naturally have the characteristics of connecting the mana pathway and building resonance. Therefore, writing on it with special ink can make the spiritual power attach and form spirituality.

And this spirituality is the key to ensuring the success of spell casting... In other words, scrolls and other materials made from the skin of magical creatures have souls, while paper materials produced by industrial technology have no souls. 'of……

But actually...that's weird!

Don't talk to me about soulless things. Isn't the essence just Mana resonance?

It’s just that ordinary paper has no soul. I don’t believe that there is really no substitute! "

Magical creatures are not easy to breed on a large scale. Only a few giants have mastered the key, using special creatures such as pig beasts and magic sheep to skin and make rolls.

That was traditionally reel equipment manufacturing.

But in the past thousand years, plant-based magic materials have been popular, using the skins of some magic plants and extracting fibers, which can also be substituted.

These two methods of obtaining materials have their own merits, and one cannot simply say which one is better.

One thing that is certain is that if a new type of raw material acquisition channel can be discovered, there will be huge benefits.

He thought for a while, sent another communication, and asked: "What has Mr. Sakari been doing recently?"

The subordinate responded: "Mr. Sakari has been traveling to various places, looking for herbs and plants everywhere..."

The old druid's lifestyle is similar to that of Shen Nong, Xu Xiake and others, who are in harmony with nature.

Roland said: "Tell him about Valona Duoye and ask him to visit the large-scale closely related tree species..."

This alone was not enough, Roland quickly asked someone to get through to the Adventurers Association.

"Sir Roland, what are your orders?"

The person in charge was flattered, and everyone on the other end of the communication array showed a bit of humility in tone.

"I'm going to release a few exploratory missions to visit the forest. I'll send someone to inform you of the relevant information later."

After arranging these things, Roland was concerned about the current situation of the members of the school.

Especially Pendos and others in Silena Mage Tower.

Pendos expressed his gratitude.

Atline's protection of technology patents is still in place, and it is already difficult to achieve plunder.

But as long as you don't cheat like Roland and directly cross the entire patent barrier, you will be controlled by the giants to a large extent and have to be divided into many benefits.

That involves some methods of capital markets and plane trade.

Self-proclaimed civilized methods are sometimes no less harmful than robbery with a knife.

Fortunately, I have the protection of the school.

He now feels that it is very worthwhile to join the Seris School.

"Haha, the power of the school is not yet strong enough to compete with those giants, but in terms of per capita output, there is still potential in all aspects to beat those established forces.

We will definitely win this tormenting battle. "

Roland was confident and expressed his stance to Pendos.

Pendos was convinced.

……

More than ten days passed and it came to the end of June.

Rosa was dressed in loose casual clothes, lying lazily in the sunroom of the tower, enjoying the fresh breath from nature.

The emerging Terry City has become one of the most developed areas in the entire Reiner World, not far behind those real metropolises in demonic countries.

But even in such a city where land is at a premium, you can still enjoy the opportunity to be so close to nature.

This was the environment Roland provided for her.

At this time, Rosa's figure was obviously plumper than before. This was not only caused by pregnancy, but also because she had gradually put down her work recently and relaxed.

Roland walked in and saw the sunlight shining from the window, shining on Rosa, as if there was a quality of holy light lingering, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"Time flies so fast!"

He couldn't help but recall the scene when he and Rosa met for the first time. At that time, Rosa was only a 16-year-old girl, but now she is the queen of East Lena, showing the appearance of a beautiful woman.

Looking down her arms, I saw that her belly was slightly bulging.

This is the third month of pregnancy, and the whole body is beginning to glow with the brilliance of motherhood.

This change in identity and temperament made him truly feel the power of time.

But I have to admit, it's like brewing fine wine, so sweet that you can't help but get intoxicated.

"gentlemen……"

Rosa turned her head, with the same admiration in her eyes as before, but more attachment and dependence than before.

Roland sat down next to her, stopped her from trying to get up, held her hand and caressed her lightly, without saying anything.

Rosa's heart warmed, and she turned her head to Roland's arms, sniffing the scent emanating from him.

The two were quietly affectionate for a while, and then they began to talk about various things that had happened recently, including things inside and outside the mage tower, as well as things about the school and the kingdom.

Rosa had obviously realized that taking good care of her health and giving birth to an heir was her top priority right now. She suddenly said to Roland: "I recently made Diego's sister, Lacey Capel, a royal lady and allowed her to Come in and out of the palace, chat with me to relieve my boredom...

This person has no evil intentions, but she is a pretty nice lady. "

This is a hint that Roland favors the other party and cultivates pro-Atrein and pro-Serys forces!
"Why do you worry about all this?
Could it be that Her Majesty the Queen wants me to open a harem as ordered? "

Roland couldn't help but scratch her nose, half teasingly, half helplessly.

Sometimes when people sit in a certain position, they really can’t help themselves.

Love, friendship, etc. are also a kind of luxury.

It's like saying that he has no interest in Lacey at all, but as the sister of his once proud disciple and now the daughter of his trusted agent...

Don't tell me, it would be better for everyone if you accept it!

But compared to this matter, what he considered more was who should take over the work of the college secretariat.

Now most of the affairs have begun to be transferred to his former subordinates Jorge and Dirente in the editorial department of "Rune".

But they will also gradually have their own research projects and take the path of arcanists.

At that time, time and energy will inevitably be spent on one thing at the expense of another, and the use of power and resources will inevitably be unbalanced.

I want to find an outsider in the arcane field, but also a true confidant that I can trust...

Before Roland could figure out the matter, suddenly, a communication interrupted his thoughts.

"Your Excellency Roland, we have monitored the news in Atrein's media that is unfavorable to you and Her Majesty the Queen..."

Roland listened with a calm expression and immediately understood that someone noticed Rosa's pregnancy and started to make a fuss about it!
