Arcane Linguist

Chapter 334: Operational planning shows its power again

"Recently, chaotic party elements have been rampant and are deceiving the public with their lies. Residents in our town are not allowed to listen to rumors or accept leaflets..."

"There has been an increase in orders recently. You are not allowed to arrive late or leave early, and you are not allowed to be absent from work..."

"Employee benefits, timely statistics on the list of family members..."

Roland's response was quickly implemented through Bona and others.

He did not intend to compete with the townspeople and citizens about the Wang family's struggle for supremacy or the conflict between schools of thought.

What he needs is to maintain stability and ensure production and labor.

"Keep an eye on me. At this critical moment, no funds can be deducted!"

With practical experience, Bona knew what the people below were like, and he repeatedly warned him to focus on sharing the worries of his teacher.

Don't be perfect at the strategic level, otherwise the execution will be messy.

Immediately afterwards, Roland began to focus on the mages.

The elite group of people who have received magic education are not only the greatest heritage of Reiner's world, but also the source of turmoil.

This includes both the wild mages from Atrein and the apprentices studying in the mage tower.

"Now we have a piece of news to announce. With the recent development of the country and the increasing number of affairs, Enke has been specially established and a new affairs officer recruitment examination has been added.

All registered mages born in the Mage Tower and apprentices in the orthodox academy can participate free of charge..."

When everyone found out, they were all happy.

The recent war in East Lena has begun to subside, and many wastes are waiting to be revitalized. A large number of intellectuals are needed to enrich institutions at all levels.

Those who do not have the talent of arcanists are just diverted to take charge of the secular world.

Some wild mages who wanted to come here to prospect for gold simply stopped accepting adventure requests and went into seclusion to prepare for exams.

It's not that I'm absolutely loyal, but it's not cost-effective to cause trouble.

But I can’t let my years of hard study go to waste.

Next, those comprador merchants, craftsmen, meritorious upstarts, etc. also informed, warned, and beat them with both kindness and power one by one.

After first ensuring the stability of these Reiner bases, Roland began to free up his hands to take the next step.

……

A few days later, downtown, late at night.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Who is it?"

"Open the door and check the temporary residence permit!"

“It’s so late and you’re still checking the hell out of me!”

A man held a lantern and opened the door full of complaints.

In the blink of an eye, several big men rushed up and pushed him to the ground.

"Oh, what are you doing..."

"Your kid has been confessed by the higher authorities for accepting foreign funds!"

Similar things happened constantly, and dozens of people were arrested in just a few days.

After the emergency interrogation, as expected, many clues were found that the Scroll Association was behind the scenes.

Although this association was defeated and disarmed in Reiner's world, it was still wealthy and powerful and still controlled many comprador merchants.

And all of this is established under the ruling order of Atrein.

All have legal identities and are protected by law.

In general, it is similar to Mobron and others under Roland.

Sure enough, when Roland started to follow the clues and prepared to point the finger at them, Rawls from the branch of the Scroll Association far away in Atrein not only did not panic, but laughed.

"It seems that Roland really has no choice. What's the use of interrogating clues? Do you dare to arrest those businessmen?
If I really want to catch him, it will be exactly what I want! "

Confidants praised him: "The president is wise!"

Rawls ordered: "Let's start the next plan and let those businessmen and pen writers make a fuss."

At the same time, Prince Adilo, Duke Del and Duke Chad also quietly launched operations.

They were representatives of the old aristocracy, and their biggest conflict with Rosa was that as the new king, Rosa only reused comprador merchants and foreign legions, which made her look down on them.

At the same time, imitating the Qin Empire's system of prefectures and counties would certainly offend all lords.

Many nobles were already dissatisfied.

This time, the rebels learned from Ferre's lesson and did not openly raise the flag of rebellion, but they went even further.

Several people divided the work and cooperated. Alodi publicly reprimanded the queen and asked her to abdicate, while others secretly invaded the newly established counties in an attempt to restore the lord system.

What's more, fake bandits burned and killed people and plundered the country's wealth.

As for the Scroll Association, they put pressure on the upper levels of Atrein and kept a close eye on the mage army.

If Roland mobilizes Atrein's troops to suppress the rebellion without authorization, the illegitimate child incident that was so popular before will be hyped up again.

I exchanged a few moves between the two sides, and by the end of the month, the situation had entered a heated stage.

Ubor, Guidoon and others began to end their lives. As prestigious aristocratic scholars and well-known experts, they launched a "Confucian debate" for the legitimacy of the queen's rule.

"As the legitimate heir of the kingdom, Her Majesty the Queen naturally has the legal right to inherit, and her unborn son is also the natural successor!"

"Since ancient times, people only know that they have a mother, but how do they know that they have a father?"

Some tough people directly complained: "I heard that your princess Alodi has a lot of fun and has many lovers. It's hard to tell whether the heir is of your blood!"

This is truly a personal attack.

After hearing this, Alodi turned green with anger.

However, everyone couldn't help but think, this is really a bit unreasonable!
After all, the Queen must have blood from the royal family when she is born.

But if it were a queen or a princess, that would not necessarily be the case.

Although from an arcane perspective, there are various ways to check bloodline, they may not be used by everyone.

It seems that it is necessary to introduce this advanced technology from the sovereign country...

Experts and scholars on Alodi's side had to cite the historical origins of patrilineal inheritance and the eunuch system to make arguments. Unknowingly, they also involved the pros and cons of many inheritance systems such as sequential succession and the secret establishment of a heir apparent.

Some people in later generations called this debate "the beginning of the comprehensive Serisization of the Reiner world" because it pointed the main finger at the inheritance system, the foundation for the continuation of blood and culture.

It essentially established the historical continuity of Lena's later generations, and even paved the way for the legal succession of dynasty replacement.

It advocated the establishment of a "prince", princes, nobles, etc., and implemented a system of equal distribution among all the princes similar to the grace order. The people also recognized the equality of men and women, and the division of princes and other methods gradually formed the disintegration of clans and the strengthening of weak branches. of unified thought.

It can be said to have a far-reaching impact.

……

The outside world is noisy and the fighting is in full swing.

In the mage tower, in the room.

Roland is converting the interrogation results and investigation data one after another into rune words and adding them to his "Operations Research" model.

A large number of names, addresses, institutions, accounts, and the relationships between them form a large and complex network.

When ordinary people look at it, they only feel it is chaotic, but as more and more information is collected, several crucial nodes of the powerful hostile group begin to emerge.

"what is this?"

Rosa, who was becoming more and more beautiful, walked over holding her belly. She looked at a nebula-like light spot floating in front of him, and she couldn't help but look surprised.

What appeared before her eyes was an intuitive three-dimensional model.

Dots of starlight are like mist, forming clouds. One light point after another is involved, which is as thick as hair or spider silk, but with clues of various colors of light.

The entire model is complex and profound, with a shocking sense of mystery.

Roland reached out and fiddled with the nebula, just like a wizard fiddled with a crystal ball.

"This kind of thing is called a semantic network."

"Semantic network?" Rosa tilted her head slightly.

Roland explained with a smile: "About this, I actually used it when I created the "Index Technique".

They are similar in underlying design, except that "indexing" favors the construction of data models, while "operations research" favors the ability to use it for search and calculation.

Combined, it can be understood as one of the ultimate mysteries pursued by alchemists, the basic model of artificial intelligence. "

Rosa pondered: "I know a little bit about this. The Alchemy School has developed such sub-disciplines as Potion Science, Magic Crystal Science, Alchemical Creation Science, and Alchemical Life Science since ancient times.

The ultimate target products correspond to Panacea, Philosopher's Stone, Artifact, and Artificial Man.

The most important component of artificial humans is artificial intelligence. Roland said: "You are right, but what is traditionally considered artificial intelligence is the so-called 'spirituality' and 'soul' in creationism."

What I'm talking about is 'mechanical intelligence' that focuses on data and calculations. "

This actually involves the nature of human wisdom and soul.

There was a famous topic on Blue Star in the previous life: Do humans really have the so-called free will?

This poses serious challenges to the nature of soul and intelligence.

If artificial intelligence in a computer can pass the Turing test, doesn’t it mean that machinery can also be equivalent to living things?
If there is a brilliant mage who can achieve the great feat of "creating life", then is what he creates considered a living thing or a machine?
The semantic network Roland is talking about now is actually just a knowledge representation method that is widely used in artificial intelligence, especially in natural language processing.

But it means a modeling direction that is completely different from the soul theory. It can also connect various factors such as "language", "thinking" and "wisdom", and carry forward the saying "language is a tool for thinking".

And this also means "mechanization of human nature."

There is no doubt that this magical world takes the artificial intelligence route of the "soul" and "spirituality" side, and there is little exploration of the faction he is involved in now.

It can even be said that it is not involved at all.

Can you imagine that when alchemists are tinkering with artificial intelligence, they never talk about big data or big models, but just like the big devil in fairy novels, they capture people to search for their souls and sacrifice their blood to divine weapons?
There is also a small group of ancient wizards who went astray in studying the mysteries of the human body and life, accidentally creating professions such as necromancers and lichs.

This is why these spells were given original sin in the Age of Magic Empire.

People in the magical world firmly believe that creating life is the unique power of gods.

And creating an intelligent race like humans with the potential to become gods is an absolute forbidden area. All researchers are naturally burdened with unforgivable sins.

For this reason, many arcane countries have had fierce conflicts with religious countries where gods rule.

Roland continued: "In ancient times, wizards often relied on "prophecy" to find answers to various questions. Some people regarded it as the power of gods, or some kind of magical means of foretelling the unknown.

But in my opinion, it's all just calculations.

The original prophecy relied on the power of the gods. After being transformed into arcane prophecy, it relied on the vague induction of mana and the nature of heaven and earth.

But even the greatest prophets and the most brilliant arcane masters cannot fully control the laws.

Therefore, the results are always ambiguous.

Fortunately, with the development of the times, the arcane world has used it more and more sophisticatedly, and computing models based on big data and artificial intelligence have gradually emerged, and finally a revolutionary breakthrough has been achieved.

The improvements I am currently making using linguistics, especially based on the meaning of the runic language of 'strategy', have created the results of "strategy".

Those people think they keep things secret enough, but in fact, as long as a person is still active in society and participates in interpersonal and economic operations, it is impossible for a person to completely hide himself.

No matter what, there will still be clues.

What you see now are the key figures I have been trying to find out recently and the organizational relationships with which they are connected.

They are all the nails planted by the Scroll Association in Reiner's world. They are hidden stakes that have been developed for a long time and play a vital role in this incident. "

Roland explained while counting with his fingers again.

After a while, a light lit up again among the complicated nebula.

It swelled to the size of a lentil and became extremely conspicuous.

The magical quill next to it automatically floated up and recorded another name and the corresponding detailed information.

In fact, after analyzing the calculation principles and spell models to this point, he could have made similar predictions in the magic-free world of Blue Star in his previous life, even without relying on spells.

The role of magic here is similar to that of computers and software.

It's all just a tool.

Rosa looked over with some curiosity, and sure enough she discovered that those were all information from the intelligence personnel placed here by the Scroll Association, as well as the informants and brokers who were responsible for important tasks such as communication, financial and material support, etc.

Big data is so scary!
"Rosa, look, none of the key people are missing, they are all here!

On the surface, Alodi and others appear to be menacing, and the power they mobilize is very powerful, but in fact, without the support of Rolls and others from the Scroll Association, it is completely useless.

Although the Scroll Association, Rawls and others have profound foundations, they lack the control we have to go deep into Reiner's world, and are slightly inadequate in many aspects.

This kind of remote control is actually very fragile. "

"Just like a kite, there is always a string holding it?"

Rosa understood.

“Yes, but it’s not just the strings of a kite, it’s like the pillars of a building.

These remote control nodes are the most critical support.

If these informants are eliminated, the entire connected organization will look like this..."

Roland smiled and snapped his fingers.

Silently, the nebula collapsed.

Rawls seems to be adhering to the principle of "cannot put eggs in one basket" to develop these forces. This idea is not wrong in general, but the comprador businessmen who have lost their informants are really not worried.

Roland may have figured out the fatal weakness of this organization even more clearly than Rawls himself.

Because Rawls also worked through the people under his command, the information he obtained was indirect and outdated. Roland used his own new spells to technically defeat his intelligence system.

"Would it cause trouble for you if you attack the hidden line?"

Rosa asked with a little worry.

"No, because they are all hidden stakes and pawns that Rawls developed secretly and did not take the open road in Atrein.

Although there are quite a few wild mages and mid-level warriors among them, the identities here are all private adventurers, even criminals from foreign countries, and stowaways, without official endorsement from Atrein.

If there is really another identity, I have already taken it off alone and prepared to deal with it in other ways. "

Roland said confidently.

If the husband does not fight and the temple counts as the winner, it must be counted as more.

The entanglement and balance of power over the past month is just a facade.

The real goal is to use the rune prophecy method "Operation Strategy" to count your opponent to death!
But now, he has figured it out and can take action.

Since he had the home field advantage, Roland directly asked Rosa to mobilize the official power of the kingdom authorities to temporarily block the trade routes in various counties.

On the surface, it seems that it is in response to the rebellion of the old noble lords and entering a state of war.

In fact, they secretly divide their opponents and deploy their combat power.

Only a few businessmen, celebrities and ordinary soldiers went to get it.

A wild mage with some skills should first apply for the magic network ban authority from the magic network management office, and then allocate sufficient power according to the magic equipment and spell props that the opponent may hide.

Adventurers, mercenaries and the like lure them away with benefits, and transfer them away through entrusted tasks and other forms.

Then there is the estimation of the distance, people eating horses' chews, and various expenses.

Everything is prepared secretly.

After many arrangements, Roland clearly arranged most of his enemies.

However, when the strongest target was left, he hesitated.

Because the opponent turned out to be a sixth-level warlock, a hidden master from the Black Dragon Dynasty.

A place like the Black Dragon Dynasty retains the heritage of the Tinyala era.

The black dragons that once existed in this world but became extinct hundreds of years ago gave birth to offspring with humans. Some of them inherited the power of their ancestors and were called Dragon Vein Warlocks.

"Forget it, let me deal with this opponent personally.

But just in case, you have to bring Trina, as well as various equipment and props. "

In the world of magic, it is impossible to stay in the tower all the time. The stronger the person, the more barbaric the world becomes.

Roland has also begun to consciously train his actual combat abilities.

A sixth-level warlock is not a big problem.

Maybe there are some secret treasures from the Black Dragon Dynasty that can be fished out.

I just don’t know what the relationship between that person and the Scroll Association is, and when they got connected.

"Deal with the Warlock? Black Dragon Warlock?"

Just as Roland expected, Green Dragon Trina was very excited when she heard it.

"Let's talk about it first. You can attack me, but I have to pick out the treasure first!"

The green dragon's first thought was also the treasures of the Black Dragon family.

"Just pick first, I'm not interested in money anyway."

Roland said indifferently.

What he wants is Trina to work hard, as long as she is willing to work hard.
