Arcane Linguist

Chapter 347 Professor Xia Gensi "rebellion and surrender to the enemy"!
  Time went back more than an hour ago.

Backstage at the lecture, in the waiting room, Professor Xia Gensi sat on the soft sofa, holding the information he had transcribed word by word in his hand and pondering over it.

Not long after, a hazy shadow condensed by white light appeared in his palm, beating gently like a pale flame.

If you put your spiritual power into it, you can see some stars-like light spots twinkling inside, which are vaguely similar to Roland's "Index Technique".

This is a brand new model that he derived himself to improve the artificial intelligence of the magical puppets.

Thanks to his previous research on the Syris Talisman, he suddenly discovered that in this language system, the word "spiritual wisdom" contained profound magical meaning, and it also had characteristics similar to high-dimensional operations (resonance across the universe) , can be compatible with magical meanings such as soul and spirituality.

With the help of this inherent characteristic, many problems encountered today can be solved.

In other words, the magic runes transformed into this language will be more flexible and convenient, and will greatly improve the performance of the magical puppet in terms of artificial intelligence.

"This is really an unexpected gain. Just changing a few details and replacing the Seris runes in key parts can achieve such an effect..."

After several calculations and confirmation of this, Xia Gensi himself felt a little incredible.

How could it be like this?
  What Xia Gensi didn't understand yet was that the resonance across the universe was at work.

Compared with other magical languages, Seris language has extremely outstanding advantages in this regard.

As for some characteristics based on language, such as the flexibility and simplicity of grammar itself, the diversity of word combinations...

It also has a completely different efficiency from alphabetic text.

This relationship is one-to-one in terms of language and magical rune results. Among natural languages, Seris language can express complex meanings with a smaller number of characters, so after magic, rune language can also reflect Highly condensed meaning.

This just solves some of the problems encountered before.

"Your Excellency Professor, the entrance has already begun. Your Excellency Roland is giving a speech. Aren't you going to listen?"

At this moment, the assistant at the door reminded me.

Xia Gensi's thoughts were interrupted, he waved his hand and said: "I won't listen anymore. Call me again when it's my turn."

If you have this time, you might as well deduce more ways to improve it.

"By the way, let's start improving the magic circle that simulates the nerve center from here...

Continue replacing these runes. "

Language is a tool for thinking, and conversely, it can also be said that the embodiment of artificial intelligence can provide feedback by giving the golem "language ability".

There have been many related inferences in the history of the arcane world.

From the famous "Question and Answer Machine" model to the "Wish-making Machine" model.

There are also corresponding spells, from "True Seeing", "Understanding Legends", to "Alien Detection" (using this spell, you can ask questions to entities in other worlds)...

No matter what the story background is, what kind of world it is, most of the beings who show intelligent abilities have language-related abilities.

What Professor Xia Gensi is thinking about now is to use a method similar to the way Master Watson improved the "Prayer" to simplify the input and output of his magical puppet.

Perhaps we can use the "constant question answering machine model" to create a product that can show higher intelligence capabilities.

For such a magic circle model, the successful experience of Master Watson's "Prayer Technique" is worth learning from.

He used Seris language as the input and output interface and successfully realized optimization for this language.

Plus the tree in Roland's dream...

And the semantic network built by "indexing" also gave him a lot of inspiration.

"It seems feasible. Let's do it this way. Start improving it here first, then here, here..."

Professor Xia Gensi became more and more excited as he changed, and he gradually lost track of time.

"Professor Xia Gensi, it's almost your turn."

The staff reminded.

"Don't you see I'm busy? Just wait a moment, wait a moment!"

Xia Gensi waved his hand impatiently. He was very interested in research now, but he didn't have time to care about such things.

"Professor Xia Gensi, it's your turn."

After some time, the staff reminded me again.

"It's fast, it's fast! I suddenly have a brilliant idea, I can improve it like this!"

Xia Gensi didn't even raise his head. The paper and pen next to him were already filled with a lot of runes and structural diagrams of the alchemy circle.

As for the model constructed by magic power next to it, the "Pale Fire" is also constantly changing.

He suddenly had an inspiration that he thought was excellent, and he suddenly became enlightened.

staff member:"……"

Now is not the time to do this kind of thing. Why are you so busy, Professor, regardless of the occasion?

The old mage is full of experience: "You don't know, inspiration is like diarrhea...

Can you hold back diabetes insipidus? "

staff member:"……"

While his assistants and staff in the mage tower were at a loss, Professor Xia Gensi was overtime for more than 30 minutes, and finally he jumped up excitedly, clenched his fists and waved his arms!
  “I get it, that’s it!

Hahahaha, using this method, the technique can become as simple as it should be!
  It's so amazing! "

The staff member complained: "Sir, are you finally okay?"

The boss was incompetent and furious, but did not dare to disturb the professor. The poor staff became scapegoats and received a lot of scolding.

Only then did Professor Xia Gensi realize that it had seriously timed out.

He hurried out and came to the front desk.

"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long.

But just now, I suddenly made a new discovery.

Using this discovery, the intelligence of the magical puppet will be significantly improved. I would like to call it the perfect combination of spiritual intelligence and mechanical intelligence! "

When everyone heard this, they were deeply surprised.

"The previous magical puppets were already smart enough, but they can go one step further at this critical moment?"

The old dean Opani also sincerely praised it and said: "It's really good. I fully recommend it."

Professor Xia Gensi's words gave Opani a bit of an unexpected surprise.

Because for a mage like him, every step forward is closer to the Archmage.

Maybe this time it will be the final word and we can win it directly.

However, Professor Xia Gensi changed the topic and said: "Here I would like to thank Mr. Roland of the Siris School and the rune results announced by the Siris School.

This improvement of mine was inspired by his rune language.

I took the word "spiritual wisdom" from it as the core of the meaning of magic, and used it to build a new semantic network rune array...

Please take a look at my general construction process..."

As he spoke, he concentrated his magic power and condensed characters one after another in the air.

The light rays intertwined between these characters condensed by magic power create a complex shape of the magic circle.

The "pale fire" appeared on the spot.

Anyone who has learned about his achievement can recognize it at a glance as the intelligent center of the magical puppet.

But what is different from before is that some key nodes have been replaced with runes constructed in the Siris language. This is equivalent to replacing some basic components, achieving an effect similar to Roland's original improved "light spell" oracle scroll.

"Did it turn out to be solved this way? It's really ingenious."

"But this is the result of using the Seris Rune..."

Everyone looked at it with confused and subtle expressions.

Professor Xia Gensi took a panoramic view of everyone's reactions, sighed deeply, and said to everyone: "As you can see, my achievement still has a lot of room for improvement and breakthrough, and to a large extent, It is related to Lord Roland's Siris Rune achievement.

Therefore, I made a temporary decision to give up the selection of the Arcane Star Award and support Mr. Roland instead.

After it is completely perfected next year, we will compete again. "

The crowd was in an uproar.

The old dean Opani looked even more pale.

I've been waiting for so long, and you just give me this?
  This is not in line with the rules, and there is nothing about giving up or not in the selection of Arcane Star.

But after everyone heard Professor Xia Gensi's speech, they inexplicably agreed.

Because this time, he used his own personal experience to prove that the Siris runes are also of great benefit in alchemical life sciences, and can even be directly applied in the field of giving intelligence to alchemical products.

The previously criticized concerns that value and contribution could not be directly reflected have been completely resolved.

From this point of view, the value and importance of "Serys Rune Collection" may be several times higher than expected.

It can be used to support and produce other Arcana-level results, just like how Master Watson used it to improve the "Prayer" in the past.

In comparison, the achievement of the strange mechanical puppet is really just one of them, completely included.

If the selection of the Arcane Star Award needs to consider all aspects of interests and contributions, then even a first-year apprentice can calculate this relationship between inclusion and being included.

Next, the results report meeting turned into an analysis of Professor Xia Gensi’s improvement ideas.

Everyone needs to see whether what this person says is true and whether the conclusion is exaggerated.

The Olympic Award selection must not be sloppy, and no scandals such as private awards and acceptances should be revealed.

As a result, it was quickly confirmed that the facts were indeed as Professor Hagens said.

His improvements this time were inspired by the Syris Runes, and he also used these results.

The effect is amazing, even immediate.

Antonia listened, feeling surprised and inexplicably relieved.

This is also good, this is also good.

If Professor Xia Gensi gives in himself, there will be no need to maintain the previous deadlock.

Many people who originally supported Xia Gensi would respect his wishes and switch to Roland.

It's really stable now!

He quickly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Everyone, let's make the final selection."

The members of the jury who were qualified to vote got up and went to the conference room next to them.

As an alternate member, Roland did not have such rights, and he did not go in to observe to avoid suspicion, so he stayed and waited.

Xia Gensi took the initiative to come over and stretched out his hand to him.

"Your Excellency Roland, nice to meet you."

"Your Excellency Xia Gensi."

Roland looked at him with a little surprise.

"I didn't expect that you would choose to support me at such a juncture."

"Anyway, I'm just loyal to my own arcana.

The Syris Rune inspired me a lot, so I decided to use it as the basis for improving this spell.

If I can imitate the improvements made by Master Watson to the "Prayer Technique", then my "Intelligence Endowment" will also perform better.

Oh, by the way, in the context of Seris, perhaps it would be more appropriate to translate it as "insight and channeling"? "

Professor Xia Gensi talked eloquently and showed great interest.

""Initiation and channeling"? That's true. Roland nodded.

The arcanist's knowledge of the Selish language is rudimentary.

But I have to say that this summary really captures the essence.

The translation is all right!

"I wonder what your opinion is on this type of magic?"

"Actually, I really don't know much..."

"That's too modest to say. I can see that you also have extensive research in this field.

Perhaps, we can develop in-depth cooperation in the future. "

……

"Humph!"

In the distance, the old dean Opani, who had already walked out of the door here, looked back and saw Professor Xia Gensi taking the initiative to talk to Roland, acting extremely enthusiastic, and a look of dissatisfaction flashed on his face.

But the matter has come to this point, and there is nothing he can do.

Even Professor Xia Gengsi, who had high hopes, "turned to the enemy and rebelled", so what could he do?
  "I don't know how to appreciate it, so all my efforts have been in vain!"

In order to maintain the record of His Excellency Aziz as the "youngest winner in history", he spent a lot of effort and made many favors.

I thought that Professor Xia Gensi's achievements were of sufficient weight, and that he could compete with Roland on the same level, which would be enough to achieve this goal.

But he didn't expect that he would fall short at the last minute.

Opani was angry and frustrated, but helpless and too aggrieved to speak.

Because the key to this transformation is Xia Gensi himself!

If it were just another accident, there might be a way to remedy it, or even disrupt the selection at all costs...

But Xia Gensi has already voted, what can he do?
  "He must be planning to win the award next year. If Roland's position is confirmed first, there may not be anyone who can compete with him next year."

Mourning Ya, Varian looked confused when he heard this.

Old dean, you are too obsessed!

"Now for a re-voting, all committee members are asked to leave their own secret marks on their favorite winners and their achievements!"

In the conference room, a new round of voting took place quickly.

Everyone gained a new understanding of their achievements and representative significance, and each made their own choice.

As rays of light rose up like fireflies, more and more fell into the light group representing Roland.

A bright ball of light was ignited, clearly surpassing the candidates scattered around it.

"87 votes! 72.5% of the votes! The result is valid!"

The statistical results came out quickly, Antonia announced with satisfaction.

"Now I announce that the new winner of the Arcane Star Award is Roland!"
