Chapter 501 You Will Be a Legend

Somewhere on the edge of that small pond, Norman and Revised confronted each other.

"No, no, absolutely not!"

Xiu was still vehemently refusing, and a rare angry expression appeared on his face.

As a mage, what he should do is to constantly learn ancient language knowledge, meditate and practice, and persevere in improving his strength in all aspects in order to reach a higher level.

This is a long and difficult road.

On this road, all mages will only feel that time is not enough, wishing that they can live for decades or hundreds of years, the same is true for repairing nature, he spends almost all of his time on improving his magic power on the promotion.But now, Norman actually asked him to make bread and build houses for those ordinary people!
"I am a distinguished mage, not a baker, let alone a carpenter! I also stayed here to help you because you are a gray-robed mage, barely half of my peers, but you are now You actually asked me to do those menial jobs! You are insulting me! This really makes me doubt whether it is necessary for me to stay here."

In the end, Xiu even faintly revealed his willingness to leave.

Doesn't this guy seem to be full of magic knowledge, and he knows how to blackmail people?This seems to be easier to handle.

Norman thought of this in his heart, still smiling on his face, and said slowly: "Of course I know that you are a noble mage, not a baker or a carpenter, and I am not insulting you, on the contrary, I am giving you An opportunity to become a legend, a legend that will always be remembered and sung by mankind like the Son and the Holy Spirit."

Xiu's expression froze, his eyes moved, but he immediately sneered, "Do you want to say that you can become a legend by making bread and building houses for ordinary people? Then it's too easy to become a legend. Most mages in this world They can all become legends like this!"

"Legends are legendary precisely because of their rarity and uniqueness. If everyone can become what you call a legend, then what's the point of such a legend?"

Xiu felt that Norman was talking nonsense.

If it wasn't because he hadn't finished learning the pinyin, he wouldn't even be willing to continue entangled with Norman, and left angrily at the first moment when Norman humiliated him so much.

Norman clapped his hands and sighed: "You're right, it's really not easy to become a legend, can't you tell from your current attitude?"

"Making bread and building houses for ordinary people are things that many mages can do, but will anyone do it? Mr. Xiu, your attitude has already explained everything. So this matter seems very simple, and many mages can do it. It can be done, but it is actually extremely difficult, and the difficulty lies in the following.”

"One, persuade a mage to serve ordinary people, make bread, and build houses."

"Since the emergence of the profession of mages, the status of mages has always been high. It has always been others who serve them, without them serving others. Therefore, asking a mage to make bread and build a house is simply simple on the surface. Using a few spells is actually a challenge to the default rules that have been formed for thousands of years, and it is a change in the social status of mages, which is naturally extremely difficult."

"Second, it's the outside world's reaction to it."

"Even if a mage voluntarily serves other people, making bread and building houses for ordinary people, the society will give him great resistance and prevent him from doing this. This is related to the dignity of the mage. In essence, it is an extension of the first point - because this will change the social status of mages and pull them down from the high altar. As a mage, as a vested interest in this privileged position, other Naturally, those mages would not allow this kind of thing to happen, and they would do their best to extinguish the flames of this momentum at the first moment when things had a sign. On the outside, the mages of the kingdom and the church would Launch a crusade on this."

"Three, from the perspective of the mage himself."

"If a mage goes to serve those ordinary people, making bread and building houses for them, it will undoubtedly consume a lot of his time and mana, which will have a certain impact on his strength improvement and slow down his strength improvement speed .No one is stupid enough to harm their own interests to benefit others..."

At the beginning, Xiu was still full of anger mixed with a trace of sneer, but as he listened all the way, his expression became more and more confused.

As a mage, he knew that what Norman said was not wrong. This matter was not as easy as he thought before, and it was indeed full of difficulties. Norman said everything he could not think of.

But it was precisely because of this that he became more and more confused: since this Barton knew that this matter was so difficult, why did he still have the confidence to find himself and make such a request?Judging from his narration, he should know that it is absolutely impossible for him to agree to this matter.

And Norman talked for a long time, and finally finished talking about the difficulties, changed the topic, and turned back.

"Because there are so many difficulties, this matter is almost impossible, so it will not appear that everyone becomes a legend. If you do it, Mr. Xiu, you will be the only one."

Xiu can become a mage, there is still wisdom, but it is not so easy to fool: "There are many things that few people do, but if you want to become a legend, you don't do something that few people do. For example, eating shit is also rarely done, but if you do it, you won't become a legend because of it."

Norman didn't expect that this old-fashioned guy could come up with such an interesting example, he smiled and said affirmatively: "Of course, if you want to become a legend, you must also make great contributions to the entire human race, such as Like the Holy Son who established the Father God, or like the Holy Spirit who made human beings become the masters of the continent, and I hope that what you do, Mr. Xiu, will have a contribution no less than these achievements."

At first, Xiu thought that Norman asked him to do these things out of ignorance, but now after hearing what Norman said, he found that Norman was more sober and comprehensive than himself in terms of cognition of this matter, which made him He became more and more curious.So I didn't interrupt or question anything, but listened quietly.

"We can first assume what will happen after a mage does this."

"Let's assume that it's a Mage with your strength, Mr. Xiu. With his ability, I would like to make a bold guess. One person should be able to supply rations for 200 people, right?"

Xiu thought for a while, then nodded, but didn't speak.

Norman's estimate is still very conservative. If you really want to do this to the maximum with your cultivation ability, it is not impossible to supply 500 people to survive. There is an improvement.

"In this way, at least 100 people will be freed from the land and can do other things."

"Fifty of them can join the army of the local nobles, and the other 50 can go to handicrafts. Some of these new handicraftsmen will be blacksmiths. They will increase the local weapons production and equip these new armies. Some will be engaged in leather-making, construction and other fields, and the production of all aspects of the area will be improved. And the more practitioners in these industries, the more technical exchanges between them, the technology of this industry The faster the development, the more local products, the sharper the weapons, the better the armor, and so on.”

"Not only that, but even the number of mages in this area may increase."

"I disagree with that."

Xiu had been listening silently, his eyes flickering all the time.

He admitted that what Norman said was very reasonable, and it was very possible that the door of a new world was gradually opened in front of him. The novel scene behind the door made him amazed again and again, but here he finally spoke to express his disagreement.

He can agree with what Norman said before, but not here.

"People with mage qualifications are very rare in this world. It is not too much to describe it as one in a million. Now you have sacrificed a mage and only liberated more than 200 people. According to the standard of one in a million, this is far from It's not up to the ratio of electing a mage. And don't use specificity as an example, because what you've been talking about is general image."

Norman nodded, "Of course I won't use specificity as an example. I just want to say, Mr. Xiu, you, or the entire mage world, have been confused by a long-standing illusion."

"We all know that mages are very rare, because it is very difficult to become a mage, and most people do not have the conditions to become a mage. But I think that the reason why mages are so rare in this world is that the conditions for becoming a mage are extremely harsh. , the more important reason, I think, is that the scope of screening is not large enough."

"I once lived in a capital city in the middle of the country. The population there is very large. Adding the surrounding territories, there should be 60 people, but among the 60 people, more than half are the population of the surrounding territories. It is the manors under the rule of the nobles. As farmers, their lifelong task is to cultivate the land to supply this huge population. They have no chance to check whether they have the talent to learn magic, and have no chance to verify whether they have become mages. The church will not go to these manors to select students. Whether it is the church or the kingdom, they will only select future mages from those who live in the capital, and what is even more terrifying is that even those who live in the capital , Most of them also need to work continuously for their living, and have no time or money to learn spell-related knowledge, so they have no chance to verify whether they have the possibility of becoming a mage."

"In the capital city of 60 people, the kingdom and the church can really screen less than 1 people at most. And in this population base of less than 1 people, two to three hundred people can pass the screening every year, And eventually become a mage."

"It's not one in a million, it's just one in a million. It's just because we counted those who have no chance to be screened at all, so the illusion of one in a million appears!"

Xiu's pupils slowly dilated.

He thought of his past.

He is one of those people that Norman said "has no chance to be screened at all". The reason why he can become a mage today is entirely because he was lucky and met a seriously injured old man.

He was kind-hearted, and although his living conditions were not good at that time, he still tried his best to take care of the poor man until the last moment of his life, and his kindness was rewarded—the seriously injured old man was a The red-robed mage, during the days when Xiu took care of him, he spent the last time of his life imparting as much knowledge as possible to Xiu, and he also left a book of his magic notes.

Afterwards, relying on the magic knowledge he learned from the old man, Xiu barely passed the exam of the local church school, and studied hard in the school, and finally became a real mage.

Barton was right, the mage's screening range was too narrow.If he hadn't been helped by his first teacher, even if he had the talent of a mage, he would not be able to become a mage in this life, because he would not be able to enter the screening range at all.

"So according to this real probability, it is not impossible for a mage to appear among the liberated people in the local area. On the contrary, it is a very possible thing, because the local people Having been liberated from the land, they don't need to worry about living anymore, they have all the time. They have a lot of time to accept the screening and test whether they have the qualifications to become mages. Those who have this qualification, just Go on the path of a mage, those who do not have this qualification, continue to develop according to the routes I said before."

"This is just the situation in one place. If you look at it at the level of the entire human race, what will it be like?"

"Under this change, the population of human beings has not increased, but the overall strength can be said to double! And this is just the beginning. Next, in many ways, we can replace the work of ordinary people with efficient mages , construction, metallurgy, manufacturing, etc., there is no need to worry about insufficient number of mages, because we have added a lot of mages. Further liberation of labor in these areas will allow more people to work hard to become mages and further improve mages. Quantity, the result of this going on is that the human army is getting more and more powerful, the various human technologies are getting more and more, the human mages are also getting more and more, and the human power is getting stronger..."

"Changing the entire world is absolutely no less than the great achievement of the Holy Son and the Holy Spirit. This is also a starting point, a starting point for changing the world, and Mr. Xiu, you are standing on this starting point now, only you have Such strength to take the hardest first step."

"Then, you will change the world."

"You will be a legend."

After Norman finished speaking, he stopped talking and just looked at Xiu in front of him.

Standing in front of him was Xiu, his pupils dilated to the extreme, and he was panting heavily, as if he was about to suffocate, his face was flushed, and his forehead had bruised veins.
