329: Chapter 329: More Advanced Anti-Magic Runes 329: Chapter 329: More Advanced Anti-Magic Runes Zhao Guang said to Jeana, “Make us a cup of coffee.” Jeana nodded hurriedly and quickly ran off. In human society, only the master was truly close to her. Other people either looked at her strangely, as if they wanted to devour her, or they were like Ocoro, who looked at her with disdain, just to varying extents. In fact, Ocoro was already quite tolerable compared to others who saw her Beastman appearance. Many were filled with hostility towards her. If Jeana had not been a slave of the nobles, she might have been attacked. “Have a seat. I don’t have any pieces of art or books to entertain you at the moment.” “I’m not here for that. I’m here about matters concerning the Silver Tower.” “Haven’t our transactions always gone smoothly? Is there a problem?” Zhao Guang frowned. He had issued many tasks to the Silver Tower, including but not limited to various magic knowledge, custom-made Magic Models, or various Battle Skills. His Rapid Regeneration, the Prototype Regeneration Technique, was also researched and developed by them. After experiencing it for the past few days, Zhao Guang found that the Rapid Regeneration truly was somewhat extraordinary. If Zhao Gang hadn’t been short on time, he would have already begun researching it on himself. “It’s not that issue. It’s about the Anti-Magic Runes.” “Anti-Magic Runes? Is there a new breakthrough? But you could have just told me directly, why the urgency?” Zhao Guang wasn’t too anxious about the Anti-Magic Runes, since they were sufficient for the time being. “It’s different. The Anti-Magic Runes have already achieved a breakthrough. The maximum range has now been extended to fifty meters, which has made them very practical in value.” Suddenly, seeing Jeana approach, Ocoro instantly shut his mouth and stopped talking. Today, Jeana didn’t feel like Ocoro was particularly perverted. After all, they were in the Imperial City. It isn’t clear whether Ocoro had restrained himself or had been disciplined by his family, but at least he was clothed. If this had been on the front lines, Ocoro’s body would surely be marked with all kinds of chaotic things. Once Jeana left, Ocoro continued, “Having the Anti-Magic Runes reach this level holds a very special significance. Therefore, the Silver Tower is discussing whether they could use this Rune.” Zhao Guang was puzzled, “I don’t recall forbidding their use, and isn’t it their research to begin with?” It seemed there was no concept of patent law in this world. Even if there was, would a Mage care about it? What they cared about was the knowledge they learned. The source of that knowledge was irrelevant. That’s why Mages always closely guarded their knowledge, never letting others see it easily. The Mage world valued equivalent exchange, and the most valuable commodities were often special knowledge. “How could I make a mistake in such matters?” Ocoro gave Zhao Guang a look of mistrust. “When I gave them the tasks, I made sure to form contracts. The Anti-Magic Runes are for your use alone. The researchers can use them, but they can’t share them with outsiders.” “So, you’re saying, apart from the researchers, no one else can use or learn it, right?” Ocoro nodded slightly and took a sip from his cup, “Not strong enough.” This is regular coffee; it doesn’t contain any strange substances. It’s your drink that’s not normal. Zhao Guang didn’t respond; instead, he took a sip of his own, and agreed, it wasn’t strong enough. But considering the weird ingredients he could have added, he decided it was better not to. “So, what do they actually want to do with it now?” Without hesitation, Ocoro replied, “They said they want to construct a Magic Prison for incarcerating Mages. As long as there is Anti-Magic, a Mage’s strength is largely neutralized.” Ocoro continued, “But I think there’s more to it. They’ve had prisons before.” Of course, Zhao Guang knew that. Besides, the pre-existing prisons were functioning fine; there was no need for modifications. Adding an Anti-Magic Domain just for that seemed unlikely. “So, they intend to use it against their enemies.” Ocoro nodded, “That should be it. Mage Organizations have their own enemies, most of whom are Mages as well. An Anti-Magic Domain would make some people much easier to deal with.” That made sense. If they desired it so much, there had to be a way. “I’m in principle willing to let them use it, but what’s in it for me?” Ocoro took out a card, “This is proof of membership in the Silver Tower. It’s been unsealed; just infuse it with your Magic Power, and you’ll be transported to the Silver Tower.” “Unsealed? What about others?” “This card contains a special Magic Array that connects to the space where the Silver Tower resides. Others need to unseal it themselves and establish a connection with the Magic Array, proving their talent in Space Magic.” Zhao Guang understood that the card was also a tool to test talent. If one could unlock the Magic Array to reach the other side, it showed no issues with their talent. Only those with a talent for Space Magic would be accepted by the Silver Tower. Whether he was accepted because of the Anti-Magic Runes or his wealth was uncertain. Either way, Zhao Guang understood that there was a path outside the usual rules. Zhao Guang didn’t doubt his talent, but since this would allow for an easier entry, why consider anything else? Zhao Guang had been wanting to join a Mage Organization anyway. There was no help for it, the truly top-tier knowledge simply wouldn’t be available otherwise. With his growing strength, Zhao Guang felt the increasing scarcity of high-level knowledge. As an old, top-tier Mage Organization, the Silver Tower should indeed satisfy him. “Good, then I agree.” “Take it, then you can find time to go over there and talk to them.” Ocoro was a bit envious. If he had Mage talent, he’d have liked to become a Mage too. How elegant were Mages, simply standing in place and casting spells. Unlike them, the beleaguered warriors who had to charge forward in sweat, not artful at all. As a noble, every noble aspired to be a Mage, not an agonized warrior who only knew how to brandish a sword. Joining a top-tier Mage Group, Zhao Guang would even have a high status among the noble circles.
