Throne of Magical Arcana

What is the cosmological constant?

In a popular sense, if there are multiple different universes, this is the intrinsic feature of a universe, its DNA, which determines how it differs from other universes.

After Lucien traveled to this world, he found that although most of the natural laws and elements are consistent with the earth, there are a few obvious differences, such as the "disappearing" stars that represent destiny, such as magic, magic, and blood power. Existence, such as the existence of dragons, devils, vampires, and many magical substances, so Lucien subconsciously thought that this universe must not be the universe where the earth is located. No matter how similar some of its natural laws are, how many elements are the same, in basic places, The cosmological constant must also be different.

The reason why the formula of thermal radiation caused such great psychological and emotional ups and downs in Lucien was that the formulas deduced by Fernando and Douglas respectively already meant that this world was also discontinuous and quantized, which was different from the current magic council. The general cognition is completely contradictory, just like the ordinary elevator does not climb slowly, but suddenly jumps from the first floor to the second floor, and jumps from the second floor to the third floor, without passing through the middle place, which is completely unreasonable. On the other hand, a cosmological constant can be deduced based on it. On the earth, it is called Planck's constant.

Regarding the first point, although it will cause the subversion of the entire arcane system, when he discovered that the elements have a periodic law and confirmed that the atoms have an internal structure, Lucien was mentally prepared, and he was not nervous because of this, and he could deduce the constant time. , but it seems to be in a bewilderment, and even produces all kinds of auditory hallucinations, because as long as the constant comes out, it can be compared with the Planck constant on the earth, and the previous gravitational constant is the same, and the similarities and differences between the two universes can be basically judged up.

This seems unimportant, but to Lucien, it is an important progress in unraveling a corner of the fog of the world, a source of tension that cannot restrain the fluctuations in the mood, and a deep attempt to get close to the essence of the world!

But they are the same?

But they are the same!

At that moment, all kinds of auditory hallucinations caused by the complex emotions of anxiety and panic disappeared immediately. Lucien seemed to have fallen into a half-virtual and half-real hallucination. The gravitational starlight forcibly stabilizes the entire cognitive world.

Then, the surrounding environment was "reborn from the ashes", and a brand new space was slowly rebuilt on top of the fragments. The flowing energy was no longer continuous like water, but piece by piece, like sparkling light shining on the water surface. Like tiny stars that cannot be counted.

After an unknown period of time, the cognitive environment was completely stabilized, and Lucien slowly opened his eyes. Fortunately, he subconsciously agreed with the conclusion that energy is a share, otherwise he would end up being shot in the head.

The "quantum of energy" in the cognitive environment seems to be able to penetrate the virtual world, wandering back and forth between the soul and the spiritual world. Lucien felt that his soul was stronger than ever before, and his spirit seemed to be able to vaguely touch the deep mysteries around him, just like "Book of Astrology and Elements" "Crossed an important barrier from intermediate to advanced level as recorded.

Cognition of the basic essence of the world, soul and spiritual power are strong enough to directly interfere with reality, mastery of arcane and magic knowledge is enough to analyze an extremely complex six-ring magic, these are the three major obstacles from intermediate to advanced.

But in the face of such progress, Lucien, who is still a magician with four rings, is not at all happy. The consistency of Planck's constant, coupled with the previous constant of gravitation, even if he is unwilling to admit it, he has to make a terrible inference : "It is very likely that this is the universe where the earth is located. Of course, it is not ruled out that there is a similar universe with the same cosmological constant, but how to explain the appearance of magic and divine arts, and the 'disappeared' stars?"

Brain in a vat?

The Matrix?

An experimental area for a certain type of powerful creature?

Or another anthropic theory of the same universe? Consciousness determines the world?

No matter which guess, Lucien is currently unwilling to accept. In comparison, the latter two are much better.

There has never been a moment when Lucien has such a strong desire to explore the real world, and is more urgent than ever to improve his magic level and arcane level!

"That's it for today, you go back first, and come over tomorrow morning to read the letter." Fernando did not open his eyes, and ordered a little tiredly, waking Lucien out of his contemplation, and suddenly found that his palms were densely covered with cold sweat.

Ever since he had the body control ability of a second-level knight, Lucien hadn't sweated like this for a long time.

"Yes, teacher." Lucien took a few deep breaths and stood up slowly.

Fernando noticed Lucien's abnormality at this time, thinking that he was tortured by those two damn formulas and was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, so he said in relief: "Although it is difficult to admit that you are a fool, all great arcanists are When there are problems that cannot be solved, we often have to publish articles in the "Arcane" and "Magic" journals to get inspiration. Wait until the next issue of "Arcane", if we have not solved this problem of heat radiation, we will put two A formula has been sorted out and submitted in the names of me and you, Brooke and Douglas."

"Teacher, I'm fine, I just need to rest quietly." Lucien was still in a trance and didn't understand Fernando's kindness.

It wasn't until he walked out of the gate of the parliament headquarters and the fresh air blew in his face that Lucien felt alive again. This is the real world, a beautiful world!

"At least no researchers have come to pull out the tubes, and they haven't been wiped out by the people sent by the matrix..." Lucien shook his head, humorously and thankfully laughed at himself, "We need to speed up the improvement of knowledge and strength...the formula of heat radiation And the constant will be used as the next paper, but it has to be done step by step and slowly let the grand arcanists accept it, otherwise a few heads will be blown, the strength of the magic council will be greatly reduced, and the church will once again occupy the absolute advantage, and things will become Trouble."

In the soul library, most of the books on quantum are still in a sealed state, and it is not known when they will be unlocked.

…………

More than a week later, on the morning of June 28.

Lucien slowly spread the butter on the bread, and ate his breakfast very aristocratically.

"Mr. Evans, when will the Atomic Research Institute be established?" Sprint, who was below, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and asked.

For more than half a month, he stayed at Lucien's house because he quit his job as a waiter in the magic restaurant. Apart from studying and practicing magic every day, he just helped Lucien sort out some materials—he was concentrating on the five-ring magic. Analytical, even experiments are rarely done, so the proud Splinter always feels that he is a waste and can't help with anything, and he is more and more anxious about the affairs of the Institute of Atomics.

Lucien put down the milk glass, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and said calmly: "Hurry up, it will be about this time, because I have successfully constructed the magic of 'Fernando's Lightning Furnace' in my soul last night, After being promoted to the fifth ring, you can ask the teacher for support."

Of course, before that, it's time to use the formula of heat radiation to express it.

"Pfft, Mr. Evans, you have five rings?" Splinter sprayed the milk, and the table was dirty.

He vaguely remembered that Mr. Evans was promoted to the third ring just over a year ago, such a promotion speed has never been heard before! It is entirely possible for the teacher to become a high-level magician before the age of thirty!

Lucien put the napkin aside and said with a smile, "It's external help. If it's just me, it will take about three to five years before I can be promoted. Well, continue to do the test paper I assigned today. You seem to be very leisurely. How about another one?"

"No! Teacher Evans, I still have a lot of things to do!" Even as rebellious as Splinter, when he heard Lucien's test paper, he showed obvious fear, and his dark red hair stood on end. Falling down hilariously.

"Master, the latest issue of "Arcane" has been released three days in advance." Leo interrupted Lucien's wicked taste of admiring the boy's frightened expression, and handed Lucien the dark black book covered with countless silver and white lines.

Sure enough, it was published ahead of schedule. Lucien was not surprised. He nodded slightly, opened the journal, and saw Isabella's paper "The relationship between some alchemy substances naturally secreted by the human body and emotions Applications in ".

In the history of the "Arcane" journal, the number of issues where the author of the front page paper is not a legendary magician is very small, about once in four or five issues, and this time Isabella's paper is placed at the beginning, which is enough to show that " Arcane, the authoritative journal's attitude.

Flipping through the following articles, Lucien saw that his own was in the fourteenth article, which belonged to the front position, and there were some papers in other directions in the middle, such as the paper created by his classmate Chloe from the perspective of statistics and probability. The content of molecular motion has been fully summarized, and it is no longer just a separate formula and law as before, and a new thermodynamic system has been initially established.

Looking carefully at the paper, Lucien nodded, it's time!

"Mr. Evans, is this issue of "Arcane" published in advance because of Ms. Isabella's thesis?" Splinter looked curiously at the journal in Lucien's hand.

Lucien looked at him suspiciously: "You also know about this?"

"Well, many people have been discussing this matter during this time. Katrina said that many arcanists are very excited and looking forward to it. Do you think Ms. Isabella can win the crown?" Splinter also looked excited , although I don't understand what this means for the arcane system.

"Probably not too small." Lucien nodded, got up and went to the headquarters of the Magic Council.

…………

Due to the early release of "Arcane", when walking in the magic tower, Lucien met many magicians holding journals gathered to discuss.

"The impact of this matter is really far-reaching." Lucien sighed as he stepped onto the elevator, and what he was going to do might not be far-reaching enough to describe, "it" would "destroy" the entire arcane world !

Entering the study room, Fernando still maintained his grumpy and bad temper. The low air pressure around him made the little crystal dragon Aferis disappear for several days.

"Good morning, teacher." Lucien still greeted politely.

Fernando roared: "Am I getting better? Douglas and Hathaway wrote to me every day to clarify the significance of perfecting the formula from the perspective of particles and molecular scattering, while Brooke, Helen, Oliver and Vicente asked me to start from Looking at the problem from the perspective of electromagnetic radiation and energy equalization, they are arguing in my mind, making me wish I had never studied this problem, knowing that both directions are wrong!"

"Teacher, why don't we forget these?" Lucien seized the opportunity and said bluntly.

Fernando looked over sternly: "Forget these?"

"Yeah, forget about particles and waves, forget which angle to start from, forget about quarreling, stop and look at these two formulas first, and see if they can be pieced together mathematically to form a formula that is applicable to both long and short wave ranges. Formula." Lucien found himself subconsciously becoming serious.

Because, this is a very serious "beginning"! It is the "beginning" of the collapse of the current glorious arcane system!

Fernando frowned slightly: "The inscribed method? Lucien, you should have finished putting it together? With your character, if you haven't tried it, you will never suggest it rashly. Tell me about your formula."

He saw through Lucien's "intention" at a glance.

Lucien took a deep breath: "Yes, teacher, I have pieced together a formula."

When he said these words, Lucien seemed to have an illusion that a violent thunder boomed over the entire magic council and the entire arcane world.

This is the end of an era and the beginning of an era!
