Chapter 15

Even if the uploader dies, as long as his Thought Key still exists, he can browse those contents.

In simple Internet terms, although the developer himself has passed away, as long as the other party's account and password still exist, others can download those contents.

This means that with a Thought Key, everyone no longer has to worry about magic being lost due to accidents.

This is also the reason why mages from other countries agreed to maintain the Thought Disk.

And besides storing magic, the Thought Key can also be used directly through the Root, and there will not be a situation where the power of magic significantly decreases after the Age of Gods, like Western magic.

However, although the Thought Key is easy to use, it also has a threshold; it's not that as long as you have a Thought Key, you can browse any magic in the Thought Disk.

To put it bluntly, the Thought Disk is equivalent to a membership-based large library, and the magic inside is the library's collection of books.

The Thought Key is a membership card with different levels.

Somewhat ridiculously, although the Thought Disk is kept by the Spiral Pavilion, they do not have the connection authority to the Thought Disk, which is the advanced Thought Key.

The true controllers of the Thought Disk are the Ten Officials of the Mountain Court.

And the Ten Officials of the Mountain Court are all immortals who have truly lived for at least hundreds of years.

Zhang Jiao was only lucky enough to be favored by the Old Immortal Nanhua, who gave him the "Taiping Jing" to study on his own, and was not granted a Thought Key by the other party.

This should be considered a test given to Zhang Jiao by the Old Immortal Nanhua; as long as he passed it, he could be officially accepted as a disciple by the other party.

Unfortunately, Zhang Jiao failed.

That's why Zhang Jiao said he was a disgrace to the Taoist sect and not an orthodox Jewel Jewel Mage.

Because of this, Zhang Jiao is not a rigid and pedantic person.

Regarding the magic he learned, he taught it as soon as he was asked, without any delay.

After all, he had also taught his magic to his two younger brothers and several disciples, but it's a pity that their aptitude was too poor, and they only learned a little bit of the fur.

(Gilgamesh)

[Ding! The quiz will begin in ten minutes. Please prepare yourselves, group members.]

"Hmm!"

Feng Xi, who was practicing the talismans taught to him by Zhang Jiao, immediately snapped back to reality.

He had been so engrossed in drawing talismans that he had completely forgotten about the quiz.

"What's the matter?"

Seeing Feng Xi's expression, Zhang Jiao asked, puzzled.

Feng Xi explained, "The quiz is about to start."

"Is that the system you mentioned?" Zhang Jiao immediately perked up.

He was very curious about the system, but unfortunately, no matter what method he used, he could not see Feng Xi's interface.

"The reward from the quiz is what you used to summon me, right?"

Red Hare grinned while chewing on a carrot, "That really is magical."

[Ding! New group members "Wife" and "General of Heaven" have joined the group chat.]

"..."

Feng Xi and Zhang Jiao looked at the newly appeared interface, staring at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Is this the system? What a magical thing..."

Zhang Jiao immediately began to study the system with his whole heart.

Red Hare complained about why he didn't have one after learning Zhang Jiao had joined the group, while Feng Xi looked speechless.

This system really had to put his Servants out in the open.

Fortunately, Red Hare remained unexposed.

As for that "Wife," it went without saying that it was Irisviel; it was too obvious.

Wife: "Saber, is this the system you all mentioned?"

Artoria: "Yes, Iris."

Iskandar: "Hahaha, another newcomer has joined. Do you want to join my ranks?"

General of Heaven: "Heh, interesting."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "This General of Heaven, could it be the Great Teacher Zhang Jiao from the Three Kingdoms period?"

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was very popular in Japan, so the name "General of Heaven Zhang Jiao" was practically the same as introducing himself directly.

General of Heaven: "Ah, to think that someone of a foreign land would actually know of me."

Gilgamesh: "Is this guy famous?"

At the Tohsaka residence, Tokiomi Tohsaka introduced Zhang Jiao's identity to Gilgamesh like a lackey.

Gilgamesh: "Tch, I thought it was someone important; turns out it's just a cult leader."

Gilgamesh: "A mere Yellow Turban rebel, to be in the same group as me, you should feel honored."

Zhang Jiao, who had been smiling all along, saw his expression darken instantly.

Gilgamesh's foul mouth had successfully enraged Zhang Jiao the moment he spoke.

Zhang Jiao hated being called a Yellow Turban rebel more than anything.

"Who is this guy?"

Zhang Jiao gritted his teeth and asked Feng Xi about Gilgamesh's identity.

Feng Xi was also done with this chuunibyou Gilgamesh; one sentence had angered Zhang Jiao to this extent.

He then told Zhang Jiao about Gilgamesh's identity and deeds.

General of Heaven: "Hmph, no wonder he is so lacking in manners; he is just a petty king of a foreign land."

Gilgamesh: "What did you say, you mongrel!"

Compared to the various dynasties of China, the territory Gilgamesh held during his lifetime didn't even count as a single province.

Otherwise, why would he have the nickname "The Oldest Village Chief of Humanity"?

Gilgamesh: "Very well, mongrel, you have angered me."

Gilgamesh: "I will make you regret this, Yellow Turban rebel."

Feng Xi: "What, was Senior Zhang Jiao wrong?"

Feng Xi: "You started spewing filth the moment you opened your mouth; was he wrong to say you lack manners?"

Gilgamesh: "Ha, you bit-part player, daring to provoke the majesty of a King."

Gilgamesh: "Very well, I remember you are in Fuyuki City right now, aren't you? Just wait, I will make you kneel on the ground and apologize to me."

General of Heaven: "Hmph, petty king, you are too arrogant."

General of Heaven: "If you want to touch my Master, ask me if I agree first."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Master! So you are Feng Xi's Servant!"

Waver: "Feng Xi, did you replace that pervert's position?"

Feng Xi: "That goes without saying."

Waver: "I see. So this Mr. Zhang Jiao is the Caster."

Gilgamesh: "So you are all in cahoots. Very well, that saves me from having to hunt you down separately."

Feng Xi: "Hmph, wait until you actually find us before saying that."

Feng Xi: "Eh? I suddenly noticed something."

Feng Xi: "@Rin Tohsaka, why are you so silent today? Not bickering with Gilgamesh anymore?"

Feng Xi: "Gilgamesh, did you do something to the little girl?"

Gilgamesh: "Hmm?"

Feng Xi: "To think you wouldn't even spare a little loli."

Feng Xi: "Pah, scum, I despise you."

Iskandar: "Hero King, did you really..."

Artoria: "Bullying a child, I look down on you too."

Gilgamesh: "What are you all guessing blindly! I didn't do anything!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "That's right, Rin was just grounded by me so she could study etiquette properly."

Gilgamesh hadn't actually done anything to loli Rin after arriving; he had just scared her a little.

Tokiomi Tohsaka had originally wanted Aoi Tohsaka to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take their daughter and leave Fuyuki City, but worried that the old worm would Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take the opportunity to snatch Sakura, he had to give up and let them stay.

Feng Xi: "@Tokiomi Tohsaka, were you kidnapped by Gilgamesh? Blink if you aren't."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "..."
