MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 41 incomprehensible mural
Murals, indeed, and surprisingly clear. Even the traces engraved on the stone walls will inevitably become mottled gradually under the erosion of the years, especially the color paintings painted with pigments. The paintings on the walls here are more delicate. It first carved patterns on the stone bricks, and then poured metal solution into them. When encountering large areas of color blocks, they simply dug out grooves and filled them with paint.
Such extravagant and laborious production methods have indeed preserved the murals intact to the present, but there is still a problem, that is, Cheese cannot recognize what the murals are telling. Art style is also common to culture. If you don’t know it, it will be difficult to interpret it.
"Do you have any clues about what is recorded here?" Cheese looked at the mural above his head, hoping to find intelligible symbols, but it was still in vain.
"It can only be said that the builder may not be so normal, sir. In my opinion, there are only a lot of incomprehensible color blocks and lines, no text or graphics. Even demons can be drawn better."
Puwei doesn't mind using the analogy of his former race. Demons have always been known for their low creativity. They are good at destruction but have no talent for creation. Only a very small number of demon lords or great demons are slightly different.
Yes, the reason why the mural here is confusing to Cheese is because the mural itself is beyond the scope of symbols and words, and the content it describes is too abstract to be understood.
But this kind of incomprehension is different from the taboos and madness of the evil gods. The mage doesn't feel any dangerous aura from it, but just feels very unfamiliar. It's so unfamiliar that Cheese doesn't have any thirst for knowledge, because what he sees is so far away.
"Maybe it's not that the person who painted it is not good enough. Our pictures, and even our words, can be shared, but there are actually preconditions. Whether it is a demon or a human, an elves or a giant dragon, they all have their feet on the ground and the sky above their heads. Even if it is very weak, it still connects us. We have not lived in a world without earth, even the inhabitants of water have similar ideas. But if the author of these pictures lived in a world that is not in common with all our common sense What about their environment? The world they observe is naturally incomprehensible to us.”
"Teacher, is this possible? If they really lived in such a place, how could they leave traces in our world?" Yuni said softly, expressing doubts like cheese.
Cheese wasn't offended, but he was glad Yuni was starting to think about things other than animals. This is very important. Many mages trap themselves in the original field, and repeatedly suggest that they only need to study a certain direction. Therefore, they lose the opportunity to understand other knowledge and incorporate it into their own cognition. Silkworms wrapped in silk threads turn into moths at best.
Of course, the ability of silkworms and other caterpillars to break chrysalis into butterflies is their own biological limitation, but for humans, what kind of person they will become is full of uncertainty.
"You think that their world is irrelevant to ours because you presume an inaccurate premise, which is the so-called our world. The world is not only the other in space, but also in time. The sea can change. For mulberry fields, valleys can be turned into highlands, but what about more dramatic changes? Is it possible that at some point in the past of our world, the heaven and the earth were turned upside down, and creatures were floating in the air and living on scattered stones? Even Even more incredible, in a certain process, all the elements of water, fire and soil that make up our existing world have not been produced, and everything is in a more ambiguous and chaotic mud soup?"
"This..." Yuni frowned, trying to understand the ridiculous assumptions thrown by Cheese, and his intuition told him that his teacher was not talking about it.
"It's a possibility, it can explain what we see. But it still contradicts the scene before us, doesn't it? If there is no stone and metal, how did the things in the murals stay? Maybe they are natural condensation. , recorded some quaint information. Or, the person who made these images happened to be in the era of the birth of the elements, trying to recreate the past with his only remaining memories. It is also possible that all my None of the assumptions are correct, these are pure ghosts or something. As mages, we are committed to understanding the world, but like the blanks on the map, there are always parts of the world that we can't explain."
Omniscience is a luxury, and it is impossible to explain everything in detail. Cheese didn't say this, because directly admitting this kind of ignorance would probably make the apprentice fall into a level that was too practical. He would give up exploring the unknown and only delve into the known. This was not Gray Robe's behavior.
The gray robes admit the unknown because they have come into contact with the unknown, which is fundamentally different from simple deduction or presupposition.
"Nah, nagging, have you found a way to go on?" Garka, who was the most unsuited to the action of the mage, said impatiently, he was too eager to leave here.
"Ah, I do have an idea for this." Cheese took out the alchemy dice calmly, walked to an unimportant place on the wall and rolled it gently, and the surface of the dice was stained with a lot of stone powder.
He then smeared the stone powder on his face to form a face pattern similar to a skeleton, and then opened his hands to show it to others.
"We can't crack the secret here, but we can be part of the secret. The stone dust can make us look and smell the same as the surrounding stones. The premise is that there must be some physical contact. It. So my advice is, take off your shoes and go down against the wall."
Gray robe pressed his palm on the stone, and starting from his facial lines, his skin quickly dyed a similar color, and even the texture appeared to be the same. But when he took his palm away, the change just now seemed to be an illusion.
"Great, then what are you waiting for?" Maoguai danced with joy.
"It takes time to replicate a substance, even with this dice. It's worth the wait, and if it doesn't reproduce the substance, I'll just give up. You see, even if we don't know that in detail, There's still a way, right?"
Cheese made the alchemy dice turn between his fingers, looked at the creature from the same sect, and said softly.
