BXBX NOVEL Chapter 414
In recent days many broadcasting stations from around the world were replaying a particular video that was trending.
[Learning Magic from Scratch] – just the name alone made it easy to tell what its content was, especially in the present world of supernatural events. This title fascinated many.
After seeing the magnificent spells of the people who had supernatural powers as well as the power of gods, how could mortals not be interested in the knowledge and power that could allow them to move mountains or gain immortality?
However, the number of supernatural events was too sparse. Those who grasped these powers were too few, and those who were willing to share their knowledge were even fewer.
So far, there were those people who proclaimed that they had supernatural powers and claimed to be able to teach them, but they were all frauds and scammers.
There were people who claimed that they were reincarnations of great emperors and asked for money or people who claimed to know the secrets to immortality as one paid a certain price. Many of these had sprung up and those who did not have enough IQ or those who were too greedy had become victims.
For this reason, police all over the world were arresting many of these scammers in droves.
But, it shouldn\'t matter if they didn\'t have to pay, right?
When you\'re just trying to make great content at shorturl.at/mCEOX.
This was a thought many people had. They desired magic and the lure of mystic powers that could change their lives. But they didn\'t want to indulge any potential scammers. So the free proliferation of this knowledge was met with enthusiasm.
Seeing how the video had a high view count, even if it might just be clickbait, people thought that it would be interesting.
Gui Bin, an official dealing with supernatural events in China, also thought so.
As a member of the special department, Gui Bin was one of the first to be notified of this video\'s existence.
After sending the invitees to the Scottish waters, Gui Bin rushed back to China and handed over the work of the frontline commander to another staff member.
“Little Gui, why do you think these magicians publicized this?”
Team Leader Si lit up a cigarette in his office and asked his subordinate, who was sitting in front of him.
As a member of the special department of China, he and Gui Bin were not ignorant like the masses. They knew that everything in the video was real!
The joint government of the countries had secretly placed cameras on these invitees to catch a glimpse of the unknown and mysterious. They originally did not have much hope, but who could have thought that the mages had easily discovered what they had done? Not only that, they did not care at all, and even gave free lessons to the people, as if they were the ones streaming it to the world.
“What the hell are these magicians going to do? I thought knowledge of the mysterious was something very obscure and absolutely not accessible to ordinary people, but these mages are blatantly making the method of learning magic public. Aren\'t they afraid that everyone in the world will learn magic?”
The division leader said worriedly.
In the past, governments all over the world racked their brains in trying to obtain mystical knowledge. Every large country had even established secret departments and research institutions just for that purpose. They had collected all kinds of books from all over the world and tried to find clues from them. It could be said that the governments of all countries had gone crazy, wanting to study the source of the mysterious powers.
But who would have thought that the other side would just casually tell the world about this knowledge? This was simply looking far and wide for something only to find it at one\'s doorstep.
Humans were strange creatures. If it was something they could obtain, they would choose to believe that they could obtain it no matter how hard or difficult, but if another party just gave it to them, they would feel suspicious and wary of conspiracy.
“Little Gui, do you think that our country will have to introduce a ban on practicing magic in the future in addition to the ban on guns?
The leader could not help but mutter.
If everyone could master magic, then the world would be in chaos. Entire social environments would change, especially that of the rich and powerful. They in particular would be the most averse to the spread of magic. If someone was truly like the Chinese alchemist that appeared and mastered the power close to that of the gods, then the capability of individuals to overthrow governments would expand rapidly.
Money, power, and other temporal luxuries would become small things in a much bigger picture.
“Leader, don\'t call me little Gui.”
Gui Bin complained, then comforted, “I don\'t think you need to worry too much. If magic was so easy to learn, why did those mages only find less than two hundred people to become apprentices? I think that magic is difficult to learn, and also requires talent. The kind of situation you are imagining shouldn\'t occur. Even if a few people were able to master it, the state should still be able to control them.”
As the saying goes, martial arts always violate laws with violence, but in current society, there was no need to fear if only a few people learned magic.
Hearing Gui Bin\'s consolation, the leader\'s mood was also a lot better.
The governments of the world would not need to worry about the appearance of those gods. From brief contact, those powerful beings seemed to be disinterested in Earth. They were simply transcendental existences.
Those below on the other hand were different. If they obtained power, they would definitely mess up the world.
Although there were a lot of bad things happening in the world, the world was still considered to be developing peacefully. No one was willing to face war and drastic social changes.
“Don\'t think too much. Our \'First Magic Learning Mobilization Conference\' is about to be held. Let\'s go to the venue first.”
“The name of the conference really doesn\'t make any sense.”
“Stop spouting nonsense, Little Gui! No one has the time to care about that. Maybe in the future, we would have a \'magic exchange meeting\', \'Asian magic forum, and other ridiculous names.”
“……”
The team leader and Gui Bin arrived at the conference room which was already full of people.
Among these people were elite soldiers, outstanding athletes, professors from major universities, and even business elites who were found in top enterprises. In the eyes of modern humans, they were all outstanding people in all aspects of emotional, intellectual, and physical ability.
The upper echelons of the country were also hoping to use this way to work out exactly what kind of talent was needed to learn magic.
“Thank you for coming to the first magic learning mobilization conference in our country. We are all seekers in the field of magic, true novices so to speak. I hope you will study hard, sharpen your steps forward, and communicate your experiences in learning magic with others. Don\'t try to be greedy. We should actively discuss this. If you come across problems that you don\'t understand, then put your questions forward.”
“Under the guidance of XX, thoughts of XX, representations, and development of XX, we want to learn the true meaning of magic and make our contribution to the construction and development of our motherland!”
Having an opening speech was the norm when having an assembly. After some lengthy words, warm applause came.
Afterward, Gui Bin walked up the stage. As the headquarters of the Dragon Group, the equipment here was state-of-the-art. There was no need for things like projectors as there were enough AR facilities.
Then, Gui Bin haphazardly operated the front computer and opened the B station website. He logged in to his account in a calm manner and clicked on the top most viewed video. After completing the operations, he opened with the highest video quality with his membership.
TLN: Yes, some video sites put video quality as part of membership perks. Hope youtube doesn\'t learn from this and force us to watch 360p without premium.
The scholars, business elites, and other people were staring at the screen with rapt attention.
