Sword of Daybreaker

A cheap, convenient, stable and reliable way of long-distance communication, its role in the process of social development is unquestionable, especially in the current stage of Gaowen destroying the old aristocracy in the south and starting to integrate and build a new South. Its meaning is as great as the guns that can destroy the old nobility.

There are many factors that restrict social development. For Cecil, who has rapidly expanded its territory and has a rapidly growing population, the two biggest challenges in maintaining the dominant position in the South at this stage are transportation and communication, and the transportation capacity of materials and personnel within the territory. , building capacity, information flow capacity, response speed of the entire ruling structure, response effectiveness... These almost all depend on the development of transportation and communication technology.

Excellent transportation can enable the rapid flow of goods and personnel within the territory, production and construction will be guaranteed, business will be developed, and the links between the regions will become tight and not loose. In the event of an emergency, It is also a prerequisite for ensuring that the military can quickly rush to the theater, and excellent communication allows the Office of Government to understand the situation, ensure timely and smooth information in all regions, and enable the Office to make the most rapid emergency. In order to achieve these two points, we must rely on the development of technology and productivity.

Ansu’s aristocratic segregation system is a backward manifestation in Gaowen’s view. However, it is the inevitable result of limited transportation and communication technology. The ruler cannot control the situation outside the territorial territory in time, and cannot send troops to the shortest time. Beyond this extreme area, at the same time, the materials of a city are difficult to transport to other cities, and the aristocracy is bound to separate the city and the city. In fact, until 557 years, the nobility and scholars also pursued the following famous sayings:

The area in which a lord can effectively rule is the farthest reach of his knight in three nights, and the area in which he can achieve absolute **** is the farthest distance his wizard's adviser can see with eagle eye.

This ancient phrase was popular in Ansu for hundreds of years, and it did not change until the summer of 557: a noble monk of the Holy Spirit Plain called "Delta" invented a crystal device capable of increasing the eagle eye and installed it in At the top of his own mage tower, thus expanding the lord's "absolute ruling area."

In the following ten years, under the suggestion of this visionary aristocratic mage, the Ansu royal family started construction in 567 with the center of St. Sunil, with the east, west, and north crosses running through the entire Holy Spirit plain and extending to four degrees to varying degrees. The “Kingdom Avenue” within the territory is also called the cross artery, which greatly strengthens the royal family’s control over the country. The upper aristocrats everywhere have followed suit and built a series of roads within their respective territories. At the same time, the successful cultivation of the new species "White Feather" Griffin and the emergence of the Messenger Pass Act, the traffic and communication situation in Ansu has greatly developed, and the aristocrats have taken a big step forward in the territorial and royal family's ability to rule the country. .

However, in these developments, the aristocratic system of centuries that has lasted for hundreds of years reflects its strong inertia. Except for the Kingdom Road, almost all road construction in Ansu is still being cut by a piece of land, regardless of whether it is cut or not. It is a road standard or a horse-horse specification. There is almost no continuity between different aristocrats. The Griffin messenger is also regarded as a symbol of noble glory, and the cost cannot be reduced. It has not been developed. During the popularization period, the aristocrats continued their pride, restraint, self-respect and self-enclosure. On the one hand, they enjoyed the benefits of strengthening the dominance of the territory. On the one hand, they instinctively refused to continue to develop and influence them to themselves. The absolute authority of the land.

Originally, if there was enough time, the day of the break would appear sooner or later, the old aristocrats could not stop the society from moving forward forever, but unfortunately, before the kingdom avenue had time to repair the border, Ansu ushered in the foggy month.

Therefore, today’s Ansu still has to rely on the king to seal the vassals, and the vassals to preserve the order of the vassal to maintain order. Even because of the great loss of the Ansu’s national strength in the foggy month, the survivors of the localities are almost unable to maintain the roads. The number of white feathers was also reduced sharply during the war. The traffic and communication situation in Ansu even degenerated to almost 557 years ago.

The worse situation is still behind: the aristocrats who experienced the civil war in the foggy month and the royal family of the second dynasty remembered the horror scenes of the plains of the Holy Spirit through the kingdom avenues. In the later period of the war, the aristocratic forces in various places declined, and the territory was straight and straight. The road of the castle has become a hidden danger for the lords to sleep hard, and the post-war aristocrats have to retreat and protect themselves due to the population decline and the situation. This negative degeneration has even continued to this day.

It was not until 735 years of Ansu that only one of the ancestors who had risen up and jumped out, with the authority of the founding fathers, with millions of years of experience from the two stars, with a disdain for the traditional aristocratic system. Gu, began to build his new situation in Cecil in the most unreasonable way.

Looking at the communication device that is still in the verification stage, Gao Wenxin’s heart is not only the communication device, but also the orderly road connecting the South and even the Ansu.

Transportation and communication, the former he has cement and various types of magical machinery that are developing rapidly. The latter, he finally saw the results of Carmel and Rebecca’s efforts so far, which both plagued all rulers. The problem seems to have a solution.

"At present, this communication device uses a hybrid rune grouping. Most of the runes are from the technology of the sleeper, but in the magical oscillations and control part, the traditional way of communication is used," Carmel Floating on the communication device, explaining some technical details of the device to Gao Wen, "Unfortunately, we still can't figure out how the network of the sleeper transmits signals in the original magic field of nature, so this device is currently It can only be run within the coverage of the standard magic field."

Gao Wen is very interested in these technical details: "Standard magic field... within the scope of the magic energy obelisk?"

"Yes, the standard magic field produced by the Obelisk of Magic Energy is like the lake you describe. The cockroaches generated by the communicator spread in the magic field, from a magical obelisk to another. An obelisk, so we can call this communication method a magic network communication," Kamal explained. "I have found a solution to use the magic energy obelisk as a relay to continuously transmit signals. Success has been achieved in a small area, but the specific effect after the transmission distance has increased remains to be verified..."

“How are these communication devices paired or identified?” Gao Wen asked. “If I have a hundred such devices distributed everywhere, how can I use one of the devices to accurately contact another specific device?”

This is also a very interesting question for Gao Wen. This kind of communicator made by Carmel is very different from the traditional communication spell or the grand wall of the elf. It is a combination of communication technology and the technology of the sleeper, and its communication medium is At present, the "standard magic field" produced by the magical energy obelisk of high-tech technology is more like an indiscriminate "broadcast" device, by broadcasting itself in the magic field. The signal, so that all similar devices can answer, if there is no matching matching or identification means, all signals will be publicly transmitted without encryption, and the whole magic field will become a mess of porridge, which is very It is difficult to achieve the "communication network" function required by Gao Wen.

"We refer to the technology of the ancient Gangzhen period," Carmel seems to have expected Gaowen to have questions in this regard. He immediately gave an answer and was very proud of the tone. "You are also an imperial person. You should know the year. The Empire Information Network was already in operation as early as the Spark Age."

Gao Wen nodded and said the knowledge he had just extracted from his memory: "Oh, I know this. When I was a knight apprentice, I often listened to the opera broadcasted by the Emperor in my tutor's house. I remember that the device not only remembered that device. You can receive the radio, and you can also talk to people who are far away from the Imperial City. At that time, only the aristocrats or big businessmen will have a dark blue terminal at home, but compared to this era, it is already a popular rate."

Carmel hadn’t spoken yet, and she heard Rebecca’s voice coming from the communicator. She never hangs up, and she keeps grimacing while chatting with Gavin and Carmel: “Wow! Is the communication device so popular?"

"Compared with the number of communication and communication devices... The communication technology of the deaf people was really a miracle," Camel sighed softly, then continued. "I added a resonance structure to this device. Only signals that meet the resonance conditions can be transmitted between devices. To achieve this resonance, I used the four basic runes of the wind system and the four basic runes without attributes, and then messed up the eight runes. Randomly arranged on a substrate with three-by-three-vacant slots, they do not form any rune knots, and there is no magic effect, but according to the principle of mana resonance, another group of runes arranged in the same order participates in the magical shock At the time, the resonance substrate will produce the same reaction..."

Speaking of this, Camerton paused, seems to give Calvin and Herti some time to calculate and think, and then continued: "The eight runes have a large number of arrangements on the three-by-three substrate, and When using one device to call another device, you only need to use a rune-like unit similar to the color palette of the lab bench, you can easily combine the rune structure of the call target. I just controlled it directly with my own magic. This process, if the average person uses it, the rune pull unit is here, on the side of the device..."

"Dial, this process we can call it dialing," Gao Wen felt that Carmel explained this simple process with a lot of ancient nouns and modern magic nouns. It was too complicated to say, "Also, eight We can assign them numbers from zero to seven, so that each communication device has a specific number to identify it, and people using communication devices can dial more easily. After all, memory Numbers are always easier than memory runes, and numbers are more suitable for registration in forms than runes."

Whether it's Carmel or Herti, or Rebecca opposite the communicator, everyone seems to be as good as Gao Wen's "as long as there is something new, it will be as experienced as it has been for many years." Performance is accustomed to, and everyone accepted this suggestion indifferently.

To be honest, Gao Wen is quite unaccustomed...
