MTL - Sword of Daybreaker-Chapter 80 The essence of magic and the sound of art
For the vast majority of people in the world, "what is magic" is not a problem at all. They think that the answer is obvious and it is not worth studying. Magic is magic, one of the ubiquitous energy of the world. The most precious wealth that the gods have given to mankind is also the standard that can divide people into three or six.
Some of the priests will tell you that the magic is the authority that spreads in the world after the fall of the gods. It is the aftermath of the war of the gods recorded in the "eternal slate". The defeated gods are torn apart in the war and fall to the earth. Their The body burns in midair, the flame and the smoke are the original magic, and the remaining residue is the original magic; some scholars in the wizard will say that magic is the bridge between the elemental world and the real world, it is a kind "Super-substance" is perceptible but invisible. It comes from the turbulence of the Ethereum, and it will show irregular fluctuations as the relative distance between the real world and the elemental world changes, that is, the phenomenon of magic surge...
However, Gao Wen cannot accept either of these two arguments. He comes from a modern world that advocates science and reason and advocates a clear interpretation of all mysteries. He believes that magic should have some kind of understanding, easier understanding, and even use. Data quantification, explained by model specifications.
The field involving the gods may not be able to do this, but since the magicians can use the magic method in a specific way, and even use the formula to simplify the casting process, the magic can certainly be analyzed.
According to the information currently available, the magic is indeed “everywhere”. Every corner of the world is full of such invisible power. The people in this world use magic methods mainly in two ways. One is direct casting. The wizards use the spiritual power to construct the spell model, and then let the spell model to mobilize the original magic in the atmosphere to form the spell effect; the other is to use the facilities like the charge array or the magic well to extract the magic first. Then use the magic in the spell ritual.
Either way, the magic is “taken” from nature, not human beings can create it out of thin air.
Therefore, Gao Wen once thought that the magic might be a special kind of "substance" or something based on material, but the instantaneous magic generated by Rebecca's "rune trigger" at the moment of turning on He has a different idea.
This is like a phenomenon that will occur in a certain energy field. He boldly assumes it.
If magic is an "energy field," and the various operational effects of magic can be seen as a special kind of fluctuation? The rune trigger is like an incomplete loop in the energy field. When it is turned on, the loop becomes complete, so that part of the energy field enters the loop, and in this process, the energy flows. Produced a "magic wave" that can be observed, but since the loop of the rune trigger is closed, this process cannot be continued, so the magic is instantaneous...
In this way, although the original source of magic is still nature, the instantaneous magic in the rune trigger is “created” by human factors, and there is no “take” process, which is why the rune trigger is not collected. And the recharge structure, but produced a small amount of magic.
Gao Wen frowned, took a piece of black stone that served as a paperweight from the side, and smeared his fingers on it. The power of the professional made it easy to draw a line like a vortex on the top, and then he pressed hard in the middle of the line. A dot that forms the symbol of the wind system: the breeze.
A slight stream of air appeared around the black stone. This cheap magical material, which is only a little more expensive than quartz sand, began to work. Gao Wen felt that his wrist was being gently blown by the cool wind.
He smeared it, the rune was destroyed, and the breeze stopped.
This is the most incredible place in the world. Just such a simple symbol, which is portrayed on a specific material, can produce such an obvious effect... Why?
If you really explain it with the "energy field theory" you just proposed, it seems to be explained: the magic is already full, and it has an uninterrupted interaction with these natural magic materials. The original process is Calm and no special effects, but as the specific texture is engraved on the surface of these materials, the balance between the "energy field" and the "active substance" changes, and the frequency of magic fluctuations changes, and the phenomenon also occurs.
But if the energy field theory is true, there is no way to explain the principles of various energy storage crystals: how do they store the magic? If the essence of magic is just a "field" wrapped around a planet, and magic is nothing more than a "wave" of a specific frequency, then what is the magical form stored in the storage crystal?
Gao Wen’s thinking spread out, suddenly remembered the history of the origin of magic, and removed the “Wan Fa Shen Shi” or “Dragon Language Magic Origin Theory” proclaimed by the gods, in fact, there is another kind in the academic world. It is said that the original magic of human beings is actually derived from the imitation of certain World of Warcraft: those of Warcraft have a special cuticle or exoskeleton structure, and in these structures there is a natural magic pattern (rune). It is precisely because of the incredible coincidence in the process of biological evolution that animals whose bodies have evolved such structures have some magical abilities and become World of Warcraft. By imagining the runes of these Warcrafts, the primitive humans engraved the runes on various stone tools, and the earliest magic appeared.
Mastering the mental power and transforming the rune of the entity into a spell model in the spiritual world is the latter thing.
This legend is a kind that Gao Wen likes very much. Although there are many parts that are taken for granted, it has abandoned the unreasonable explanation of God and the dragon, and instead tried to explore the origin of magic in a logical form, but unfortunately It seems that many magicians don't like this theory. Theologians don't even like to describe the human beings of the universe as a kind of stealer who needs to follow the barbarian monsters. This is to make those who are self-proclaimed. The big men are very dissatisfied.
A burst of fresh earth and grassy smell suddenly came from the side, awakening Gao Wen from the state of divergent thinking, Gao Wen did not have to look back to know who came, and immediately shot to the side: "Don't move me stamp The whole table is worth a little money."
A hand that was emerging from the air was photographed by Gao Wen, and he took it back, and then the amber came out of the shadow state: "Aunt is so painful... You guy is still not a person. Hey! How can induction be so spiritual?!"
Gao Wen didn't turn his eyes blankly: "I am a legend when I was a singer. Even if I am now downgraded, it is better than a guy who has a stronger combat power than a goose. You have been playing my silver seal for a few days. I thought I didn't know? You started playing it since the craftsmen carved it out that day."
Amber smiled and said: "I have some bold ideas and have not put it into practice..."
"You have practiced twelve times, but I have been beaten back every time?" Gao Wen took a look at this unpretentious half-elf. "Let's talk, find me something more than a meal now." Hours, you must be back before the meal."
Amber suddenly raised his cheeks: "Do I only eat in your mind?!"
"Crap, I am using the clock for three meals now. If you see you, you will see the meal soon," Gao Wen said with a heartache. "What do you say?"
"Hey, the old man is really boring... Well, I just want to tell you something, I want to tell you two days ago, but I forgot that I found it easier to enter the shadow world than before."
Gao Wen originally thought that this half-elf was just too boring to spend time on the outside to find himself boring, but did not expect that this guy turned out to be really a business, suddenly a glimpse.
Amber is a little dissatisfied: "Hey, how much reaction, I am very serious about reporting to you, what do you mean by staying?"
Gao Wengan coughed twice and quickly suppressed the "I just didn't think that you would do the business", and turned to look at each other seriously: "I remember that you first took me into the shadow world. I said that you are also 'the first time to enter this deep'..."
"In fact, I was a little lie at the time... I was too scared to be shocked, so I was modest," Amber spit out his tongue. "In fact, I used to enter the shadow world more than once, but really, I used to enter the shadow world." It's really not that easy. It takes a long time to meditate, or you have to resort to rituals and incense. If you don't want to get a half bottle of shadow potion, you can go in..."
Gao Wen eyebrows pick one: stuffy half a bottle? ! Are you tm drinking dead?
In addition to amazement, he also realized one thing: Amber said that it should be true, then the meaning is that the barrier between the shadow world and the current world is becoming vulnerable.
To be honest, it is a bit unreasonable to make such a world-level conjecture with a one-sided word of a half-elf with no fuss. It is normal to organize at least half of the division. Experts and scholars can only come to a conclusion after a year and a half, but then again... Gao Wen is very skeptical that even if he has organized half of the division's experts and scholars, they will not have the unreasonable talent of amber.
It's as if you are looking for 10,000 psychologists to study your wife's anger, it's better to take a look at her shopping cart: the specialty of the industry is here...
So he nodded solemnly: "Do you mean that the shadow world is gradually getting closer to the world? In addition to your feelings about it, do you think those scholars who study the shadow world will find out?"
"To tell the truth, I think this kind of 'close' should still be at a very early stage. Probably only I can accurately perceive it, and those scholars... Well, they are not all meals, so those real Masters should also be able to sense some clues, but they probably won't be able to see the changes so intuitively."
Gao Wen frowned, he didn't know whether Amber reported this good or bad, because no one in history has ever measured how much "distance" or "gap" between the shadow world and the current world, no one. Knowing how this scorpio is actually changing, it is even possible that in the history of the shadow world, it has been close to the real world more than once, but no one can perceive it, and this process will not have any consequences.
He rubbed his eyebrows and looked at the amber: "What do you think will happen if the shadow world is in contact with the world?"
"Which I know... but most of the time is not a good thing," Amber rolled his eyes. "There are most of the spells in the shadow system that are destructive. The shadow itself is quite a negative force. Normal people are absolutely not suitable to touch it."
Gao Wen sighed: "Well, it’s equal to saying nothing. Why do you come to me to talk about this? I am not a scholar, nor a wizard or mage who specializes in shadow spells, and I estimate that even with Gao Wen In the name of Syl, write a letter to the scholars of the Secret Society, and they will not look too seriously..."
"Then I don't care," Amber grinned. "I just want to find someone to say, I will be much more happy when I finish talking to you. As for what to do after that, it is your business."
Gao Wen’s forehead suddenly became straight.
But when he hesitated to ask for the goods in front of him, a sudden explosion of the sound of the two people in the tent was shocked.
"boom!"
Amber drilled down the table on the spot: "Wow! What happened? What happened??"
Gao Wen did not care about this awkward guy, but strode out of the tent and looked at the direction of the voice.
He saw a lot of alarmed soldiers rushing to the southeast corner of the camp, and that was the direction of Herti's magic lab!
Mom, the art of bombing Rebecca is really super powerful.
Gao Wen immediately ran to the other side.
Although there is a magical laboratory's own protective array and Hetti's protective magic, and Gao Wen also told Heti to pay attention to the safety of the experiment before, people should not have an accident, but listen to the explosion. The precision instruments in the laboratory may not guarantee how much.
I have to fight in the past before Rebecca was hung by Herti...
(Oh my God, I have updated another chapter!)
