Nolan, Hearthstone Tavern.

“It’s all the rage now.”

Joshua sat behind the bar counter of the tavern and looked at the two wise men not far away, the gray-clothed man and the purple-clothed man.

The spellcasters who often visited the Hearthstone tavern were already used to bumping into these two wise men in the tavern.

Every weekend, the two of them would find a table in the tavern and play one or two games of go.

With the sage taking the lead, this seemingly simple but actually ever-changing ancient game began to become popular in Nolan.

“Maybe I should consider expanding the tavern.”

Josh looked around. The Hearthstone Tavern would never have enough space during the day, and with a group of spellcasters occupying a corner and starting to play go, a game would basically take two to three hours.

“When exactly is the expansion scheduled?”

The Dark Elf was sitting in front of the bar counter, staring at Josh with a small notebook and pen.

“Thousand faces, have you been so free recently?”

Josh handed a glass of ale to the Dark Elf. She had been sitting in the Hearthstone Tavern for almost an hour.

At the beginning, she had come for the gray-clothed man and the purple-clothed man. After interviewing the gray-clothed man and the purple-clothed man, she turned her attention to Josh.

“I’m very busy. I’ve already made the first edition of the magazine that you suggested.”The Dark Elf pointed at the two magazines that were placed next to Joshua. “The response from the readers is unexpectedly good, so I’m busy writing the second edition of the magazine. I don’t have enough manpower.”

“Alchemy Magazine and fashion magazine?”

Joshua picked up the first edition of Nolan’s Alchemy Magazine, which had the cover of the tower of sages, and flipped through it.

The Dark Elves’black dove news agency was also an organization under Joshua’s command, so Hearthstone Tavern naturally became one of the locations where magazines were sold.

“It’s doing much better than I thought… and who did you look for to solve the problem of printing?”

Joshua knew very little about the birth of books in this world. The only thing he could be sure of was that this world had magical machinery like the ‘printing press’.

“It’s an alchemy workshop under the Kelia Chamber of Commerce. You mentioned the concept of ‘newspaper’to me before. After asking around, I found out that there are similar ‘books’in the country of steel,”the Dark Elf said.

“Color printing. Magic is really a terrifying thing.”

Joshua’s hand touched the surface of the magazine. The material of the paper was not like ordinary book paper. Instead, it had a metallic texture.

This also led to a heavy feeling in Joshua’s hand. The magazine was able to make every page colorful at a high price.

“The process of making this thing is more interesting than I expected,”said the Dark Elf.

The idea of the magazine was put forward by Joshua. At first, the Dark Elf thought that it was too troublesome, but the black dove news agency had recently been overstaffed.

A group of reporters ran around the streets, and the news they found were all irrelevant.

So the Dark Elves tried to make the first issue of the magazine, and of course, she was the editor-in-chief.

“It’s because these magazines can be written exactly according to your ideas. After all, the manuscripts for the daytime news have to be revised by me.”

Joshua glanced at some of the articles on it, and there was no lack of gossip in alchemy magazine.

“So why did you come to see me today?”

Josh put down the magazine in his hand and looked at the Dark Elf who had finished her ale.

“An interview.”

The Dark Elf looked at Josh differently as if she had found her favorite prey.

She kept rotating the ink pen in her hand, as if she was eager to write something in her little notebook.

“I’m just writing code. What’s there to interview?”Jose said.

“In the records of human history, we dark elves are synonymous with lies, but we’re still a little inferior to you, Mr. Jose.”The Dark Elf flipped the notebook in her hand.

“The director of the movie ‘Shawshank’s redemption’that was released yesterday, and one of the winners of the highest Human Award, the SKJERONA Award. These are the latest two. If all the previous news were added up, it would be enough to feed the entire black dove news agency. ”…”

“Is this self-inflicted punishment?”

Jose looked at the two sages who were playing go again.

The news of the SKJERONA award winners, the gray-clothed person, clearly stated that he had not revealed it to anyone.

But it was a fact that this award ceremony would be watched by the entire world.

The Dark Elves naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity.

“Let’s talk about the news about the award ceremony when it’s held. You can ask about something else,”said Joshua.

“Something else?”The Dark Elf turned the pen in his hand again and thought for a moment.

“Then ask about the magic web. Recently, you’ve perfected the various functions of the magic web. Whether it’s shopping on the magic web or the magic web’s view, they are all functions that can change your lifestyle. What do you plan to do next?”

“The next step will definitely be to focus on games.”

“Games? The game partition of the Spellcaster Forum? Aren’t the games on it constantly updated?”

While the Dark Elves were working, they would occasionally look for one or two games on it to relax.

Moreover, the popularity of the game partition had always been among the top few in the Spellcaster Forum.

This was also due to the Spellcaster Forum updating a new game every once in a while.

“Are you talking about ‘Snowman Brothers’, ‘Battle of the squirrels’, and ‘smash the bricks’?”Asked Joshua.

“This type? Isn’t this the game on the magic net?”

The Dark Elves did not understand the meaning of Joshua’s words for a while.

“No, they are just magic web games that we first met. The potential of the magic web has yet to be fully unleashed. This is just the beginning,”Joshua said.

“The beginning?”The Dark Elves were slightly surprised after recording Joshua’s words in a small notebook.

The Dark Elves had previously spent an afternoon on vacation playing the Snowman Brothers. This kind of magic web game was already interesting enough for her.

“Can you keep the information revealed below a secret?”Joshua lowered his voice as he spoke.

“This is not my style.”The Dark Elf shook her head slightly and rejected Joshua.

“Anyway, it’s not a big secret.”Joshua pointed at his head. “Have you thought about the principle of the magic web? And how it works?”

“I have. As far as I know, many spellcasters have discussed it on the forums. There are many results in the end… but very few that I think are reasonable,”said the Dark Elf.

“The weave itself is made up of a large number of runes. Do you think your brain can really handle such a huge amount of runes?”Asked Jose.

“This is also what the spellcasters are discussing…”the dark elf rubbed her forehead. She could not imagine how she could do it with so much information appearing in her mind.

“The answer is yes. After all, reality has proven it.”

As Joshua spoke, an inscription of order appeared in his hand.

“This question is close to the essence of the world. Do you think that the inscription was created by the gods to give us, or is the inscription itself a huge system created by ‘US’that covers the entire world… giving humans the ability to control the elements of the world?”

“Shouldn’t we be discussing the weave? This is a topic that the sages of Nolan should be studying.”The Dark Elf seemed to refuse to answer this question.

“It’s just that I’ve been in contact with the world tree for a long time recently, so I came up with this idea.”Joshua shook his head and seemed to be planning to change the topic. “In short, I plan to make a new game for the next period of time.”

“What’s the specific content of the game?”

The Dark Elf picked up a pen again and prepared to record it in a small notebook.

“It’s confidential,”Jose smiled and replied to the Dark Elf.

”…”

The Dark Elf instantly fell into silence.

“Well, it’s considered a game of player versus player, and it has a certain connection with the Hearthstone legend. I originally planned to make a larger-scale online game, but I found that my ability was not enough, so I could only start with a single player,”Jose immediately added.

“It seems that if you continue to ask, you won’t be willing to answer.”The Dark Elf put down the notebook in his hand and stood up from his seat. “Joshua, regarding the secrets related to the world tree that you mentioned just now, I suggest that you don’t delve too deeply into it.”

“Actually, I’m not really interested. I’ll leave this to the sages to study.”

Jose waved his hand and watched the dark elves leave the tavern.
