Chapter 118 Magic Patent Protection Fee
After a long time, everyone slowly recovered from the intense light.
After seeing the situation in the examination room, everyone could not help but take a deep breath.
In this space shrouded in magic protection, the entire ground turned black, and many places were struck by lightning, creating deep pits of different sizes.
Just from the degree of damage to the ground of the examination room, you can see how terrifying the power of the electrical magic that Xu Yi just released.
Everyone stared at Xu Yi, who was standing in the middle as if nothing was happening, and they were speechless for a while.
"Ah!" At this moment, the staff of the Magician's Union responsible for the magic protection of the examination room suddenly exclaimed, attracting everyone's attention.
President Allen frowned and glared at the staff member, and said a little reproachfully: "What's wrong? What a fuss?"
The staff member swallowed and pointed to the magic protection circle that he was in charge of, and said in disbelief: "Yes... President, the magic protection circle... seems to be a little broken."
"what?"
Now everyone was stunned again.
The role of the magic protection circle is to protect the magic used by the magicians participating in the examination in the examination room from spreading outside the examination room.
Because today's assessment is a sixth-level to ninth-level magician, considering the power of their use of magic, this magical protection circle was set up by President Allen himself, which is enough to offset the power of an ordinary ninth-level magic.
And now, after Xu Yi released an electric magic, this magical protective circle was actually broken!
Could it be that... the power of the electricity magic that Xu Yi used actually exceeded the level of ninth-level magic?
President Allen got up and checked next to the magic protection array, but he breathed a sigh of relief and explained to everyone with a smile: "It's nothing major, but the electricity magic that Xu Yi used just now is a bit special. So it is directly offset. The magic protection is not destroyed because the power is too great."
Hearing this explanation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it's not because Xu Yi's imitation is too powerful.
If this is really the reason. That proves that a seventh-level magician can actually use magic that is more powerful than a ninth-level magician!
This is too shocking. Of course people don't want to believe it.
Seeing President Allen checking the protective array, Xu Yi smiled and asked, "Excuse me, Your Excellency President. Did my high-level magic demonstration pass?"
President Allen looked at Xu Yi and laughed dumbly: "You have used such an exaggerated magic. If I don't let you pass, do you think others will agree?"
Everyone else couldn't help but nodded in unison.
If Xu Yi's high-level magic demonstration can't pass. Then why did the magicians who passed it before pass it?
Xu Yi smiled: "I don't think my control of this magic is very good, so I'm not sure if I can pass it."
"Okay, the control of magic is another matter, but just by looking at the power of this magic, you can pass." President Allen looked at the other four great magicians. "Now it is judged that Xu Yi can pass the high-level magic demonstration. I agree with him. What's your opinion?"
The Great Magician Camilla and the Great Magician Isenka were of course the first to agree to pass. The other two great magicians glanced at each other and nodded in agreement.
Therefore, Xu Yi easily passed the high-level magic demonstration that the great magician Camilla was most worried about.
It's just that the big magician Camilla looked at Xu Yi, but the expression on Xu Yi's face was always very strange, it seemed a little angry and a little funny.
There is another difference between the high-level magician assessment and the low-level magician assessment. It is because the number of high-level magicians is already small, and there is no need to select a certain percentage to approve the assessment like the assessment of low-level magicians, but as long as you really have the corresponding strength, then no matter how much you can pass, all will be approved. pass.
Therefore, although the assessment of high-level magicians also has an actual combat assessment, it is not as strict as the assessment of low-level magicians.
When entering this assessment session, although the great magician Camilla did not serve as Xu Yi's assessment officer due to the principle of avoidance, the great magician Eisenka offered to be responsible for the assessment of Xu Yi.
Others would naturally not object, but the Great Magician Isenka pretended to test it, and Xu Yi now has the level of a seventh-level magician in terms of magic power and understanding of magic, so it is just as easy. pass. (Pingnan has completed the entire assessment. In the end, in addition to Xu Yi passing the assessment of the seventh-level magician and becoming a seventh-level magician recognized by the Magician's Union, the pass rate of the other 46 magicians who participated in the assessment is probably more than half.
Of the twelve research institutes that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce participated in the assessment, only three passed the assessment, and they were all fifth-level magicians who passed the sixth-level assessment and were upgraded to sixth-level magicians.
In comparison, it seems that it is not even up to the average level.
However, Xu Yi was not disappointed by the result, but was rather surprised.
The senior magicians are quite self-aware of their own strength. These researchers have previously indicated to Xu Yi that their current strength is not enough to upgrade, so Xu Yi did not think they would pass this assessment.
Now, unexpectedly, three research institutes have passed the assessment and upgraded, which is really unexpected.
Besides, the advertising effect that Xu Yi wanted has already been achieved, so the rest are just details, and he doesn't care.
After the assessment was over, the other magicians who participated in the assessment left the examination room, but Xu Yi was left alone.
President Allen asked Xu Yi to follow him and four other great magicians into a room at the back of the examination room, and a meeting was held temporarily.
As for the topic of the meeting, it is about the details of the Patent Act.
Xu Yi had no say in other issues, and at the beginning was just responsible for the audit.
However, when it was discussed how much should be charged for magic patent rights, President Allen named Xu Yi and asked him to express his opinion.
"Uh... Ladies and gentlemen, regarding this issue, I think there are two suitable solutions." Xu Yi said.
"There are actually two kinds?" President Allen was a little surprised. "tell me the story."
"The first one. The patent protection fee is not linked to the patent royalty fee. The Magician's Guild charges a fixed fee for each patented magic research. As for how to distinguish it, it is based on the importance of magic research. Ratings. Give each rating a fixed amount."
"How should the amount be determined? Different magic research has different difficulties. I'm afraid it is not appropriate to use the same amount." President Allen asked again.
"This is simple. For example, there is a magic research that applies for magic patent protection, which is about first-level magic, which is not so important and difficult after evaluation. Then it is rated as first-level, and only ten gold coins are charged every year. But another The magic research applied for patent protection is about fifth-level magic. Usually, the difficulty and importance are higher than the previous one, so it is rated as fifth-level. Fifty gold coins or more are charged every year." Xu Yi replied road.
"But there is still another problem. If a magician researches a relatively important magic, but cannot afford to pay high-level magic patent protection fees, isn't this patent protection meaningless?" asked this question by another One of the two great magicians Xu Yi didn't know before was called Senmurel Torres.
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Master Torres, if a magician can't even pay the patent protection fee, do you think he has enough funds to study novel magic?"
Great Mage Torres was taken aback. Can't help nodding.
Indeed, researching magic is a very expensive business, especially researching novel theories of magic with no previous experience.
"Okay. Xu Yi, you can talk about another plan." President Allen urged.
"Well. As for the second option, the magician's union does not limit the amount of patent protection fees, and it is up to the magicians who apply for patent protection to decide."
"Decide for yourself?" Several great magicians were stunned. "How to decide?"
"It's very simple, if you think the patent protection you want to apply for is very important, then you pay more patent protection fees to the Magician's Union, and the Magician's Union will determine the fee to use the patent according to a certain percentage. In other words, tying patent protection and royalties together. The more you pay, the more damages you get and the more royalties others pay.”
Several great magicians thought about it for a while, and the great magician Eisenka couldn't help but praise: "I like this plan. It's like making money. If you want to earn more, you have to invest more."
"But I've always been worried about a problem, that is, in the future, more and more magicians will apply for patent protection for their magic research. At that time, if any magician wants to learn new magic, he must first hand over a large amount of money. Money?" The one who asked this question was another great magician, Como Trucchi, whom Xu Yi didn't know before.
Xu Yi glanced at him, thinking that he should be one of the more conservative magicians in the magician's union who opposed the passage of the Patent Act.
"His Excellency the Great Magician Trucchi, the problem you are worried about may exist, but have you found that even before the Patent Protection Act, it is not so easy for magicians to learn a new magic?" Xu also asked back.
"That's better than having to spend money to buy it, right?" said Grand Mage Truckey.
"No, you are wrong." Xu Yi shook his head and said unceremoniously. "Actually, magicians usually cherish the new magic they have researched and regard it as a private collection, which will not be easily leaked. So in fact, after so many years, the magic level of the entire continent has not been compared with thousands of years ago. The big improvement is because even if there are magicians who have researched new magic and have a new understanding and understanding of magic, they are not willing to share it. At most, they will only teach them to a few students. .And other magicians, but missed his new research and new discoveries."
The great magician Camilla sighed and nodded: "Xu Yi is right. I have always felt sorry for this situation before. If everyone can share their magic research, then Sainz The level of magic on the mainland is probably far beyond that of the original elves. However, after I met some elves through Xu Yi last time, I found that thousands of years have passed, and our human magic is still incomparable in many aspects. The magic mastered by the elves."
The other great magicians were silent.
As great magicians, their vision is of course very different from that of low-level magicians.
In fact, they are much clearer than Xu Yi about the reasons that Xu Yi said to limit the improvement of human magic level.
Xu Yi smiled and continued: "So, the great magician Trucchi, compared to what he wants to learn but can't learn, being able to spend money on it is already a very big improvement. The magician's union is impossible. I hope that all magicians can be so noble and selfless, and share their magic research. Then tell the magicians that you can sell your magic research for money. I think with the motivation of money, it will not only promote Many magicians share their research findings, which can also encourage more magicians to devote more energy to magic research, and because of the support of money, they have the ability to conduct more magic research."
"Clap!" The great magician Eisenka slammed the table and said with joy: "This is what I always wanted to say. You always accused me of falling into the abyss of gold coins, but have you ever thought about it, How hard did we have to be before becoming a great magician? If we have enough gold coins, we might become a great magician one step faster!"
Regarding the words of the great magician of Esenka, the other four great magicians thought for a while, but found that they could not refute.
If a magician wants to improve his strength, in addition to talent, the most important thing is to keep doing magic research.
And magic research requires money. If you don't have money to do research, you will naturally improve slower than others. This is an axiom in all magician circles.
The silence in the room continued for a while, and President Allen coughed lightly: "Everyone should have no doubts about passing the patent bill. What we need to make sure now is that you support the two schemes mentioned by Xu Yi. What kind?"
The other four great magicians looked at each other, and the great magician Isenka said, "I support the second option."
Then the great magician Camilla said that both options were acceptable, and he had no opinion.
The Great Magician Torres and the Great Magician Trucchi did not express their opinions. They felt that the two plans mentioned by Xu Yi were very reasonable, and they could report both plans to the Magicians Union Headquarters on behalf of Lampa. The opinion of the Li Kingdom Magicians Guild Branch.
"Very good, then report these two plans." President Allen made a decision, turned his head and said to Xu Yi: "Xu Yi, I have to trouble you to do me a favor for these two plans. All make a corresponding analysis report, and I will submit it to the headquarters together.”
Xu Yi naturally agreed very readily.
This kind of thing that can leave his mark on the Magician's Union headquarters and has a great impact on the new pilots, how could he miss the opportunity to participate?
