Chapter 32: Eyelids (5)

Uh Mr. Roman?

Yes, Mr. Professor? Do you have any questions?

Ah! Are you talking about this? This object is known as the Wooden Human Exoskeleton No.3, and I made it for you since you could not move on your own due to anesthesia! You may now travel alone to where you have your afternoon schedule!

Looking at Roman, who brought a strange wooden bundle with a wagon modified to hold the solution standing next to him, Professor pointed his forehead.

Right. This guys job is [Inventor], a super unique job with only two people in Worlds 1, 2, and 3.

GG is as versatile as infinite degrees of freedom and is among the most popular. There is permanent play.

Just like the territorial novels one is familiar with, the goal is to receive a noble title, acquire estates, recruit vassals to grow the estate, train troops to become an amazing region, and eventually become an emperor.

The invention of an SSS ranks internal government unit whose uselessness is unmatched in this type of territorial play.

The utility of the inventor was very clearly revealed in World 1. Official Clear Seed. Lets take the case of Nadial Renato, the inventor unit of World 1 revealed in the play of Princess Rabbit.

After hiring that person and giving an estate, when the war happened.

[Chief! All of a sudden, an amazing thought ran through my mind!]

Tring-!

Wheel development of primitive tribal stage. Increases movement speed of all tribe members by 30%.

Suddenly, monsters rush in from the mountain behind, and they subdue it.

[Woah! This is a revolution!]

Tring-!

The development of agricultural implements. 15% increase in food production. Reduced labor fatigue by 10%.

In this way, he is a Doraemon-like person who pulls out technological revolutions one by one and sells them.

In GGs setting, players cannot invent or develop in a way that exceeds the average technology of the world. No, they can try, but the game explodes.

The cause is Nomak, the seeker of technology and inspiration, one of the great evils leading to world destruction. And often referred to as the Devil of Science.

And this Devil, who has a preoccupation overall science and technology in the world, absorbs everything he likes and even the unnaturally developed technologies that users develop and provide them to the enemies in a more improved way.

For example, assume that a player worked his ass off to develop a steam engine. After about 3 months, an overbalanced one, like a two-legged steam titan, pops from the enemy side! Bang! Gunpowder is created from this side to make small matches, and the enemy holds an AK1 in hand?

In this way, GG prevented the users from adopting modern technology, so the Inventor class, which naturally raises the worlds technology without user intervention, is valuable.

Now at this point, just follow the footsteps of our great Roman!

Recruiting him isnt difficult. Rejected by his family and the place he studied, he always longs for someone to recognize him. As long as his R&D finances could be granted, one can take him in as a colleague of a vassal.

The problem is that this promising young man is overly preoccupied with his studies.

Lord! I finally did it! I did it!

[A great invention!- Magical particle charging station: A facility that recharges the consumed magic stones to be reused./ R&G budged consumed 480,000 shillings.]

Ah, an existence like this why!

[Magic Dust Resonance Particle Cannon: An anti-mutation weapon whose principle is not even clean./ When used, there is a 34% of exploding. 1.5% to burst./ R&G budged consumed 9,847,500 shillings.]

Isnt this interesting?

[Floating stone: it can be moved with a weight of 4g per 1m3. Consumed R&D budget: 2,483,700 Shillings.]

Doesnt it feel so right? Unlike the world 1s pioneer, Roman fell into a monstrous civilization called the [Goblin Magic Engineering]. He has a personality that likes flashy things, so most of the inventions he creates are like that.

I can get ridiculous inventions at a low price if I am lucky. If I am unlucky, I might have to invest more money than I could for shitty results.

GoldmanSUCKS had ended up losing all because of Roman.

In particular, [Magic dust collecting Resonance Particle Cannon] is Romans signature invention that is almost unconditionally created when Roman gets recruited. It has extraordinary power, enough to blow up a wall in one shot, but if that explodes with the 34% chance it has, the nearby management lab and forces will be killed, and what if it bursts with the 1.5% possibility?

Well, goodbye to half a city.

Ranker famous for playing rich, GoldmanSUCKS was in World 3 with 7th place, Mercenary King Nedvalis Gold.

And the city exploded.

Roman continued to explain as if he had given up carrying me and dragged me now with the rope.

Humans are essential beings who can change the world with their will. When you say in your head, Rain, fall down, they have the power to make it rain. However, we cant accomplish that because the will of the humans in the world are interlocked. Even if some people think, I wish money would fall from the sky, some more would think being rewarded for their hard work is fine. So such miracles rarely ever even show signs of happening.

Ugh, how about you take me out of this and then talk?

This world was created by gathering of all human wills in this world. Everyone believes that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west; fire is hot. Now, here is the problem. Then, in the providence created by the will of millions of people, how does a simple mage create miracles?

Tuk!

Uh Uhhhhhhh

Professor got dragged out in front of the well. A cold structure made of stacked stones that looked daunting.

The answer is through understanding, to have a stronger will than them. To understand one element more clearly than others, and based on that understanding, to have an ego that is strong enough to stomp others down. The strong will expressed in the strong ego presents the mages with this unique world. Even if others think fire is hot, mages can based on their understanding. Say, Do you know fire as much as I do? Mana is nothing more than a catalyst for manifestation. What matters is understanding, trust, and will! Those three.

Crick!

Roman, who was busy moving me while explaining, hung one rope that tied me to the pulley hanging from the top of the well.

Y-you are going to put me in there? In the water?

Hahahaha! You seem to have a similar expression as most of the trainees who enter this aquatic tower.

Aquatic tower? So this is the method used in the Magic Tower?

For a moment, there was little hope. Still, if it is the method used by Magic Tower, there has to be some kind of safety equipment.

Roman looked at me with distant eyes and acted like he didnt care.

It reminds me of the past my teacher said. They said that the most rapid and direct emotion within us humans is fear.

W-wait! Wait a minute! Roman! Mage Roman! This doesnt seem right! This is for real! How can you do this when I am infected? If it is some other liquid, the infection might start flaring up in no time!

Ah, you dont have to worry about that. If you go inside, you will naturally feel a bit threatened, but research shows that this infectious agent cannot do much damage there. Amazing, right? And we cannot use anesthetic as you need to feel it.

Amazing, my ass! How the hell am I going to stay inside?!

Hahahah! You are speaking just like a trainee mage! Do not worry! Didnt I learn much by doing this, too? Have faith, and now shut your mouth.

Eup! Eup!

As I reiterated, trust is important. Come on, take a deep breath!

Hhhhmmmummmmm.

It is fine. Take a deep breath and fill your mind with the thought of what the waters will feel like! Trust! Have faith enough to stand up to the common sense of the world!

What kind of a cult leader is he?!

Professor emptied his thoughts. Right. This was something natural for him since he had been doing this for decades in school, it might be absurd, but it shouldnt be a problem.

Upppp!

Right, that is it! Do not worry! This training method is safe with a survival rate of close to 70%.

Uhh?!!

Wwhat was that? 70 what? Then what happened to the other 30%!!

Up! Rrrr!

Now, have a good trip! You must believe to not die!

Uppp! Unnnn!!!

Chak!

Plop!

Professor sighed as he watched the surface of water receding farther away from ice-cold well water. Listen to things. Even if that idiot is a hero unit, that guy might be amazing for making things. Hes famous for getting things all fucked up for those entangled with it.

The training of GG mages, which had been told of waves and waves and ghost stories, marked the beginning of the Reed Flow Academys specialtyAquatic Mana shaping training, so-called Drowned body training.

TBH, I also dont know. Put it in the comments if you know.
