Chapter 272 Smart Industry



Zheng Li used the compatibility factor to select the first batch of mages in the magic network he set up in London.

These mages are seeds, and seeds will always spread magic for various reasons.

Whether driven by self-interest, kinship, friendship, or other factors, magic will spread throughout London.

In this environment, people explored the use of rudimentary magic and social integration.

The original seeds, due to their compatibility with the magic network, have higher spellcasting power.

However, this is not static.

The strength of a spell depends on the amount of magical network access you have; the amount of access determines the power your magic can unleash.

Others can reduce distractions and improve their compatibility with the Magic Network through mental training.

This can effectively improve spellcasting ability.

Even later arrivals, once their compatibility with the magic network reaches a certain threshold and they are able to gain the implantation of the magic network's consciousness, may actually learn more advanced magic because they have mastered basic magic.

As for the magic wand, it is stored in certain locations by artificial intelligence carried by a biological cloud, and these locations overlap to some extent with myths and legends.

This includes Norse mythology, Greek mythology, and ancient English mythology.

Zheng Li is very much looking forward to the evolution of the Magic Network in London.

He was also curious about when the scientists in London would be able to discover the magic net.

The plants in the Magic Net have all undergone mimicry treatment, and without genetic comparison, it is impossible to distinguish them from ordinary plants.

It's like a modern person going to ancient times and trying to communicate via radio. The ancient people knew something was wrong, but they still had difficulty understanding how radio waves could transmit signals.

"The wand must be crucial; in my memory, the wand is the clearest point."

Lawrence recalled.

This proves that Lawrence is a better fit for the Magic Network than Charles.

Only when the compatibility is high enough will they be specifically reminded to find the wand.

All seeds need to meet two conditions to have the opportunity to learn magic: compatibility and a desire for magic.

The latter point is to ensure that once they have the learning methods, they won't give up their efforts to master magic because of a little setback.

Then they will be willing to explore more uses of magic, and there is a lot of room for expansion in the magic network system.

Herman nodded and said, "Let's assume that someone appeared to you in a dream. Since they can appear in a dream, they can directly insert the memories into your mind."

Then the key point you perceive must have been carefully designed.

I agree with your guess; the wand is very important.

While your memory is still fresh, you need to recall if the wizard in your dream told you where to find the wand.

The memories of the "seeds" are implanted into their minds, and the way they acquire magic is combined with the memories of the other person.

These dreams were not pre-edited by artificial intelligence or Zheng Li.

Charles is an information security director, and in private, he is a gray hat hacker operating on the dark web.

Therefore, his memories of magic were also learned from dark web forums.

Charles has always been interested in fantasy films, so his dream was to create a wizard figure that combines modern fantasy content with traditional fantasy works.

Lawrence carefully reviewed his memories, and after a moment said, "I have no memories."

"I think we need to rely on our memories to determine which monk I saw in my dream."

"Then go to ancient books to find the legacy of this monk."

Herman: "This means we need a lot of money. Even a random ancient book related to magic at the auction house is too expensive for us to afford."

"Let alone buying, they probably wouldn't even look at it."

The prices of ancient books related to magic have fallen somewhat in recent years, but not by a significant margin.

Compared to before the advent of magic, the price of ancient magic books has increased by at least tenfold.

In 2024, Gandalf's wand from the Lord of the Rings movies sold for a high price of 600,000 US dollars at the Julian Auction in Beverly Hills, California.

It's worth noting that this item sold for around 70,000 US dollars ten years ago.

All participants knew that this was a movie prop, made from ordinary wood and resin that had been weathered.

But this does not diminish their enthusiasm for the collection.

Later, at Sotheby's in New York, naatanungurrayi's work was auctioned and also fetched a high price of 500,000 US dollars.

It's important to know that Naatanungurrayi was an Indigenous Australian born in 1932.

Because she was born in the Kumil ruins, and magic appeared there, she was widely believed to possess magical powers, and the price of her posthumous works skyrocketed after her death.

As for why she is considered to have magic, it is thanks to the marketing capabilities of art auction houses.

These magical items, which are likely fake, can fetch high prices at auctions, let alone genuine magical books with a certain history.

The price is something that Lawrence and Hermann cannot currently afford.

Herman raised his hand and said, "Becoming the lead in a Warner Bros. fantasy film is the fastest way to make money."

"Fame can provide you with more than just a protective shield; it can also give you access to magical items."

"Compared to students, movie stars have a significantly wider range of sources of information."

"Do you know how much more opportunities I had to meet girls after I became a somewhat famous influencer on TikTok?"

Lawrence immediately became interested: "How much?"

Herman embraced her, exclaiming, "Countless times!"

"Before I had more than 5,000 followers on TikTok, no girls talked to me."
