Chapter 84 True Representative
=======================
When Quill returned from the dwarf chieftain, he noticed that something was wrong in the tree house.
"What happened?"
Lujia stretched and said calmly: "Nothing, it's just that the human race needs a new representative."
He suddenly came closer with a smile and said teasingly, "How about you do it?"
represent?
The first reaction of the feather pen was that the clan protector badge that the saint had stuffed in last time had been discovered.
He sneered: "Don't forget my identity."
He is a necromancer, and he only speaks for the souls of all races.
The live voice call was not over yet. While Karen, the distributor of the Terran terminal, was there, Luke showed him the new terminal and discussed the launch date.
"Around April 10th," Karen said, "There aren't many products that are released in mid-April."
Luke readily agreed.
Thinking of today's meaningless dispute, his smiling eyes became more solemn: "The status of the academic school has risen faster than I thought."
Karen asked tentatively, "Do you want to press it?"
Luke: "What are you talking about? They deserve it."
He didn't even think it was high enough.
From the perspective of historical development, after abolishing the aristocracy in any country, the aristocracy still retained their status and a lot of wealth.
The Age of Magic could definitely usher in a more peaceful transition.
"The term 'Xinshi' is not very good." One new and one old, it sounds like a life-and-death relationship.
Luka slowly uttered three words: "Scientist."
He copied the definition: "a scientific worker who has made outstanding achievements in nature, life... "
The Elf King quite likes this word. After substituting this interpretation, it does sound more natural and comfortable than "New Scholar".
Karen pondered it twice and said, "There's a weird sense of the sublime."
Luke said, "If it's convenient, you can discuss with the Lord of Giant Stone City and start a scientific journal as soon as possible to collect the most valuable papers."
Karen thought about it for a moment and understood why he didn't look for Lillian.
Academics are authoritative. If you want to publish a magazine, you must find the most authoritative people to review it.
If we could invite a few more legendary magicians, I think everyone would be proud to publish articles in this magazine in the future.
“Not a bad idea.”
Lujia smiled and ended the call: "Thank you for your help. See you later."
The nobles are currently the superiors and there is no respect from the top down. If they want to truly value the academic school, the latter must have more halo.
Feeling someone was watching him, Luka turned his head and cast a curious look at the quill.
At this moment, the feather pen had already scanned the community and knew what had happened. There was a hint of displeasure between his brows.
These people actually pushed Luke to the front as a shield.
Luke could repay evil with kindness and not take it seriously, but he had no good feelings towards these academic schools.
"There are many rational speeches, but they are covered up." Luke knew what Quill was thinking with just one look, and shrugged: "And I will make a lot of money from the academics later."
To fleece the sheep, you have to fatten them up.
He will attack indiscriminately any noble newcomers.
The Elf King, who had never been interested in such mundane matters, became interested after hearing this: "What are you going to do?"
Luke: "I want to represent them."
Elf King: “…”
In the end, Lujia didn't say what he was going to do. He still needed to make several detailed plans.
Luke snapped his fingers lightly, and said in high spirits: "Next is the time for music exchange."
This was exactly what the Elf King wanted, so he immediately stopped paying attention to the previous matter and moved towards the royal hall.
Animals perform on the stage and music flows like spring water.
Quill was originally listening, but the Elf King started to improvise, and he was almost sent away by this tone-deaf person.
The bones were already growing, and after that shout, the wound almost grew larger. Using the excuse of getting cakes for Luke, Quill temporarily stayed away from the place of sin.
Luke calmly stared at the familiar figure disappearing through the archway, making sure that the feather pen had gone far away.
His eyes fell on the gorgeous and elegant Liuqiaoqin, and he humbly asked the Elf King for advice:
"Master, I want to learn this."
In April, everything comes back to life after the snow melts.
Luke returned to the Klin Watchtower on this day. He had already issued a notice before that, and soon after the first Internet Conference, representatives of all races gathered in the joint office building for a meeting.
During this time, everyone present looked at the dwarf leader intentionally or unintentionally.
It was a miracle that Iliad could get along well with this tribe.
Unfortunately, the dark elf's eyes accidentally met someone's. The dwarf chief immediately became sensitive and glared at him.
What are you looking at? Are you looking down on yourself?
The dark elf cursed inwardly, saying he was sick.
The staff were handing out the plans one by one, and everyone's attention was diverted, and the atmosphere gradually eased.
"Patent rights?" The smaller elves pushed up their very small round glasses and studied the many unfamiliar words in the plan.
As spring came, Luka took off her outer coat, and her dark hair turned red in the sun.
He said slowly:
"Technology changes our lives. For example, new terminals are about to be launched on the market. The newly added magic box can reduce the loss of magic stones, so it is worthy of a patent." Lujia glanced at the dwarf chief as he spoke.
Being looked at as well, the dwarf chieftain felt refreshed and at ease.
That’s right, technical workers deserve respect!
Dark Elf: “…”
“There is also the energy-saving magic lamp invented by academics some time ago, which also meets the standards.”
Luke: "On page 10 of the report, I have written down the conditions for obtaining the patent rights. You can take a look."
The representative of the Orc tribe read ten lines at a glance: "What's the point of doing this?"
The other representatives were not very interested either. It just sounded troublesome. Once something is invented, everyone can use it. Isn't this the default rule since ancient times?
Only the human representative was reading it carefully and thoughtfully.
The Centaur leader frowned: "And this has nothing to do with the Internet."
Lujia answered: "Patent search must use the Internet."
It is normal that everyone is not interested. The entire continent does too little to protect the rights of creators, and no one is willing to calm down and create. Otherwise, airships wouldn't have been around for thousands of years but not even have an elevator or a crane.
The current situation is that workers generally use levitation spells when doing their work, and people with average magic power are not qualified to carry bricks.
In the end, magicians have to do manual labor, academics are unemployed, and those at the lower levels are not even qualified to do hard labor. The entire market is becoming saturated and declining.
Of course, it is useless to tell this to representatives of all ethnic groups. Even if we ignore it, there will be no shortage of people working in society anyway.
They tend to look at benefits first rather than meaning.
"Page 2," Luke said.
Everyone lazily turned over.
In just a second, the originally casual gaze suddenly narrowed.
What immediately caught his eye was an oversized table, and the fairy representative's glasses almost fell off.
Patent Fee Schedule.
The table is filled with dense numbers.
Application fee, printing fee, examination fee, reexamination fee, priority claim fee...there are even annual fees and invalidation application fees!
“…Does it cost money to apply for a patent?”
Luke: “Of course.”
This is just the fee for one applicant.
Except for those with extremely low incomes who can enjoy appropriate tax relief after verification, the long-term benefits will be astronomical when the bill is implemented in the future.
He stood up and walked to the window. He was obviously talking about something very important, but he was looking into the distance, seemingly absent-mindedly at something.
"Within the scope of the alliance, we must absolutely protect the exclusive rights enjoyed by inventors, and if there are infringers, we must reasonably determine the amount of compensation and impose additional intellectual property fines."
"us--"
“We have to represent them!”
Every word was powerful and echoed throughout the conference hall.
The orcs hurriedly said, "Besides the protection fee, everyone can get some money."
The representatives at the entire long table were looking at him coldly.
Luke's eyelids twitched.
vulgar.
At this moment, the dwarf chief's eyes were shining, and he almost jumped up: "I agree, who objects?"
When it comes to invention, they are second to none.
This is simply a rule Luke made just to please them!
The human representative thought for a moment and said, "I think it is feasible, but since it is a bill, it must be discussed at a tribal meeting."
The beauty of it lies in the fact that it protects the rights and interests of the academic faction and the nobles will not object.
If you think about it carefully, you will find that patents also have huge commercial value for family businesses.
Luke nodded: "Let me be frank with you. All applications must be approved by the joint meeting. Those who use private methods to build relationships..."
He didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but the threat was already hidden in his smile.
Representatives of various ethnic groups nodded. They still had the big cake of the Internet, so who would fight over patent rights?
The orcs who sneered at the academic school were now lost in thought.
Should they also focus on cultivating their people in this area? Otherwise, according to the plan, all you have to do in the future is pay patent royalties.
The meeting ended very quickly, and after it ended, everyone couldn't wait to contact their own tribesmen.
The air was filled with conversation and planning, all carefully calculating this considerable sum.
After taking a look, Luke quietly left the meeting room.
Feather Pen didn't like the noise of the meeting. She had just listened without saying a word before, but when she and he walked out, she said, "I like the sentence on the cover of the plan very much."
Previously, representatives of various ethnic groups only focused on the interest chain, and few paid attention to that sentence.
——When the stars of all races shine.
Luke was startled, then laughed: "That's because I used to like a book very much."
As he walked out, he whispered the contents of the book, and all the stories revolved around those decisive moments.
The quill said gently, "Now is also the decisive moment."
If the bill is passed smoothly, one can imagine how many inventors will emerge like mushrooms after a rain.
This is what can truly change the world imperceptibly.
The air outside is fresh. A lot of effort has been put into the greening of the Klin Watchtower, and willows are swaying on the roadside.
During this time, Luke's pace slowed down intentionally or unintentionally. Although his expression remained the same, the two sides were very close, and the feather pen could feel his slightly tense muscles.
Before he could ask, Luke stopped by the fountain.
There were many children playing in the square. Amidst the chasing and playing, a demon child spotted him with sharp eyes and saluted excitedly: "Good day, Your Highness."
"Good day."
Luke took out some candy and asked them to make some room for him.
In the blink of an eye, a Liuhaiqin appeared in the square as if by magic. The adult demons and children stood there watching curiously, and the sentry tower in the distance also cast its gaze.
The child who took the candy took the initiative to help him move a chair.
For some unknown reason, Quill's body temperature was somewhat imbalanced.
Luke said that he couldn't play the Liuhanqin, so suddenly taking out this harp must have some other meaning.
Luka looked at the feather pen, and the next moment, the strings of the Liushaoqin were plucked.
A child was about to shout excitedly, "Your Highness is playing the piano," but his parents behind him quickly covered his mouth.
As a beginner, Luke's technique is not very skillful, but the music is very nice.
Many audience members subconsciously half-closed their eyes and found that it was a song they had never heard before. It seemed that they could see the cold springs of the iceberg melting from high above. As the melody slightly quickened, the dull moment was like a seed breaking through the ground.
The fact that the Liuhaiqin has been popular for so long must have its unique features.
The rhythm is gentle and noble, very suitable for expressing emotions.
Quill Pen stood at the place closest to Luke, and suddenly realized that this seemed to be a specially chosen location. From here back, the winter plum blossoms in the green belt were just in bloom.
However, the melody was full of hope, and the petals that were blown into the air seemed to be blooming behind Luke.
Quill was a little distracted for a moment.
When the song was about to end, his thin lips moved slightly slowly: "What is the name of this song?"
"I wrote it specially," Lujia leaned his face against the edge of the piano, with some lingering nervousness, but also a bit of calmness: "'Blooming'."
He kept Quill waiting for him.
But during the waiting period, he was always struggling with whether to be together immediately or wait a little longer.
No options are separate.
After talking with the dragons that night, Luke gradually realized that those decisive moments were often just a moment.
There's no use thinking too much.
The shielding magic hindered the final conversation, and warm applause broke out all around. He is worthy of being His Highness, and his piano playing is so nice!
Only the feather pen did not clap, the musical instrument seemed to be still flowing, and the heart that was still deformed a year ago was now steaming with vitality, spreading and enveloping the whole body.
Even the old people and children who were ignored by him like the background pictures around them had bright colors.
When the wintersweets were falling, Luke wrote about their blooming.
This flower will never wither in music, which is the best answer——
He will come towards him.
When you can't handle relationships, you should focus on your career.
With intertwined interests and the original plan as a foundation, the single representatives of various ethnic groups who were sent abroad quickly passed the bill on patent rights.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused widespread heated discussion.
There was no war of words on the Internet. The nobles and academics who had been at loggerheads with each other were surprisingly united this time and seemed to be quite supportive.
On the other hand, the academic journals in which legendary magicians such as the Lord of the Stone City participated officially announced the annual submission and approval dates. The strong review team automatically establishes the journal's authority from the very beginning.
Two major events in succession completely shifted the focus of the conflict.
In the midst of a harmonious new atmosphere, something strange happened suddenly in early May.
An unidentified person suddenly sneaked into the Holy See.
Rumor has it that the person who took action was a saint, intending to test the power of the Tree of Life.
Almost on the same day, the Holy See also launched a counterattack. A group of high-ranking clergy suddenly appeared at the border of the Demon Realm. According to them, they were only looking for the missing human tourists and obtained the Demon King's approval.
Luke ordered all safe zones to stop receiving tourists.
"Damn it, the bullet hit me again."
He looked out at the dark mass in the distance and said, "This is more like a warning from the Holy Court, trying to force me to leave the Demon Realm."
Not long ago, the Demon King sent a messenger with a contract.
The content is concise and to the point. As long as the dragon clan does not go into battle, the demon king will only mobilize very limited combat forces to join the human clan in the war. Even if Lujia died in the war, he would continue to vigorously develop his fiefdom and would not clear out any stakeholders related to Lujia.
Luke continued to curse: "Dad."
Quill: "We have to go to the Holy Court sooner or later."
There is also a big gift package to be opened there, but you can't go too early. It is safer to go there during the chaos of war.
Luke agreed with the idea, and his fingers resting on the fence flexed slightly: "Finally, I'm going to witness history."
It is obvious that war is about to begin, and both sides are using the last minute to win over support.
According to the previous strategic deployment with the Elf King and the Saint, he only needs to wait for notification and wait for an opportunity to enter the human realm.
"Any major battle will have its own triggering event. What will it be this time?"
Luke squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky. Less than a second after he took on the deep look, a ray of aurora flashed in the sky at dusk. Almost at the same time, countless tiny magic lights scattered in the air. The whole scene was extremely spectacular.
The magical elements in the air increased significantly, and roars and screams could be heard faintly in the distance.
A figure hurried up the stairs.
Captain of the guards: "Your Highness, this is bad! Something great is happening."
Luke: “…”
Nine years of service is inevitable in Klin Tower.
"It's a rare magic mine! A giant special magic mine was found around the Klin Watchtower."
Magic ore is the most strategically important material in the entire continent. Its status is billions of times higher than gold in modern society. Magic ore has never depreciated since ancient times.
When the Saint and the Elf King divided the rights and interests of the terminal, they used the magic mine as a bargaining chip.
Luke's expression changed. Why did he appear at this time instead of earlier or later?
"They are from the Holy Court."
The captain of the guards quickly explained that the clergy were pretending to be moving around the area all day, saying that they would dig deep into the ground to find the missing tourists, but they accidentally discovered the magic mine.
Luke immediately asked, "Where are these clergy now?"
The captain of the guard said in a deep voice: "Knowing that they couldn't take the magic mine away, they wanted to blow it up directly. One of them was killed on the spot by the patrol soldiers, and the rest were slaughtered by the nearby dragons."
The death of the clergyman could not be kept secret for long, and Luke knew what would happen next without having to think about it.
"Good fellow."
Klin's watchtower fired the first shot of the war.

Excerpt from Luke's diary:
Your Highness Iliad, do you remember me? I am the second aunt of your uncle Prince’s neighbor.
Mr. Luke, I am the father of my elementary school classmate who is the student representative of the First Magic Academy!
