Chapter 18: Banquet

　　The Royal Palace is located in the north of the Municipal Square, on the central axis. The architectural style inherits the Frost City, also called Medemous Palace. Peter's carriage stopped in front of the palace gate and handed it to the palace attendant, who entered on foot from the side gate.
　　 came to the main hall hall, the banquet was full of food, Peter took Ace and other scholars to introduce him, and then he had a conversation with a bearded scholar. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, Ace decided to go around.
　　 There are only a few people in the whole hall dressed in black robes, and the others are white robes and red ribbons or white robes and purple ribbons. In addition to their young age, they are very conspicuous.
　　 He saw a young nobleman surrounded by young citizens, chatting lively.
　　 "Captain, the hero is really amazing. Our captain waved a fireball that big, which directly burned the brute force who killed so many of us to ashes."
　　 a small, baby-faced citizen said excitedly.
　　 "That is the power of a hero. If it weren't for the captain, how would you have the opportunity to participate in the feast as a representative of the soldiers of the Third Legion? You must be calm and decent, and don't lose the captain."
　　 was reprimanded in a low voice by the young nobles surrounded by him.
　　 "Yes, yes, when will you be able to use power, captain? It also gives me a long eye." Babyface was not afraid of him at all, and said jokingly.
　　 "You Raipihan, captain, although I don't have power, but I know power. I'm a descendant of Frost. I don't have a physical shape anymore. I will freeze you into a snowman."
　　The young nobleman's right hand was crystal clear for an instant, and a chill came.
　　 The baby face suddenly took heart, lowered his head and dared not speak.
　　 It seems that the city-state should be an accomplished soldier who conquered the barbarians. Recently, there is a sufficient supply of slaves in the market. Ace has also heard a little about the city-state's victory.
　　 He continued to go around, listening to the people chatting casually, but he heard many recent news from the city. In the joint invasion of murlocs and barbarians, the new king Tedius Medea wiped them out in Dunhill.
　　 The Turner Fishing Port, which was dedicated to the Son of the Ocean some time ago, received the blessing of the sea. A large number of marine fish fell from the sky every day for a week. The states in the northern part of the Sarria Peninsula were attacked by demons and suffered heavy losses.
　　 Suddenly, the noisy speech of the banquet came to an abrupt end. It turned out that the royal guards had already arrived. Peter waved to Ace, and Ace hurriedly walked away. Everyone stood in an orderly manner. The heroes of the city-state stood in the front row, followed by the nobles, and the others at the back.
　　 "Your Majesty the King is here, salute!"
　　The heroes bowed slightly, the nobles bowed forward, and the others bowed at 90°.
　　 After the King’s speech and thanks, the long-awaited project began. The most popular event for royal banquets is the exchange of strange objects.
"Here, even ordinary people may change to a strange object. The so-called strange object is the product of heroes projecting their power onto artifacts intentionally or unintentionally. It may be a sword commonly used by heroes, or it may be a sword commonly used by heroes. With the exception of a few descendants of the God of Craftsman who can freely create strange objects, ordinary heroes cannot control the appearance of strange objects. Every piece is a miracle."
　　 Peter said with joy, that Ace had never seen him like this before, and his white goatee was curled up and down, showing how happy its owner was.
　　 "This is my collection. I bought a copy of a book for a hero. He likes my beautiful bird character." Peter opened his left hand.
　　 Ace looked at Peter's left hand with a small bronze mirror. Looking at it, Ace felt instantly calm, as if he lost his emotions, and at the same time his thinking became active.
"Bronze mirror for calm thinking. His original owner, a descendant of a of knowledge, focused on thinking about things in the mirror, and found out that the bronze mirror had become a strange thing. Possessing a person's emotional calmness and thinking Sensitive magical effect. But you can’t watch it for a long time. If you have the effect, you can quickly put it away. Mortal people will have a headache after watching it for a long time."
　　 Peter quickly put away the bronze mirror with his large robe, for fear that Ace would scream. Ace couldn't help but think of the situation when he overused his mental power. He also had a splitting headache. What is the relationship between the two? Have the opportunity to borrow the teacher's bronze mirror experiment.
　　 When the two talked, there were already heroes on stage and took out strange things.
　　 "A sharp wooden sword can easily cut steel."
　　 He easily cut off a standard dagger with a sword, "I want to exchange it for a protective strange object, or other interesting things."
　　 Afterwards, the heroes stepped onto the stage to introduce the strange objects in their hands one by one. The king was on their guard, and everyone was relieved.
　　Some strange things, Ace also wants it very much. A healthy pearl will be immune to most diseases after wearing it, and the body and spirit will be full. The life span of ordinary people will be prolonged for a long time.
　　 There are also arrows that must be hit, which can be blocked, but cannot be evaded.
　　 All kinds of magical items opened up Ace's vision, but there was nothing to exchange for. Not everyone has the good luck of Teacher Peter.
　　 Throughout the banquet, Ace was just a passer-by. He was witnessing the power of city-state heroes and the magic of strange things. He strengthened his conviction. He wanted to build his own manor behind closed doors in Buku Town and pave the way for the extraordinary.
　　 Slavery and private ownership of land determine that the owner is the highest point of the manor’s pyramid. He can presumptuously experiment with the technology and ideas of his previous life in the manor. As long as he pays sufficient taxes, the manor is his independent kingdom.
　　 When the banquet was about to end, the crown prince’s attendants found him and encouraged him with a word or two. This is the big person, who hasn't really reached their level, even if they are appreciated, they are separated by a level.
When he returned, Peter told him: "As usual, the scholars participating in the banquet will meet on the second floor of the public library tomorrow. This is the default city-state academic exchange at the highest level. Everyone has to speak on their own academic field. Go back and prepare. Issues can be discussed, whether they are dictionary ideas or your insights on medicine. This is an opportunity for you to integrate into the circle of scholars. Once successful, it will be a great help for your experiments and the promotion of your ideas."
　　 Ace came home and did not sleep. What will we talk about tomorrow? No need to think about the dictionary, a reference book, there is nothing to elaborate on. The new medical concept has not been tested, and it is difficult to be convincing. It is better to wait for a few years before taking the initiative to attack. What's the point?
　　 After thinking carefully, Ace wrote a new coined word-"logic", a combination of thinking and rationality, which is also the most direct interpretation, rational thinking.
　　 He intends to throw a bait to publicize his ideas, and through time imperceptibly, looking for people who identify with.
　　 The study of the transcendental path must require a group of like-minded people. Only those who exclude a priori and conjecture, can think rationally, and study objectively and neutrally, can meet his requirements and be able to explore the mysteries of transcendence with him.
　　 At this stage, it is necessary to put on the skin of medical research, but he might as well release the core idea in advance. After making up his mind, Ace spread out the parchment and began to write "What is Logic and Its Decisive Significance in Academic Research" with a quill pen.
