Throne of Magical Arcana

With the help of the tower spirit, the magicians who arrived first opened the closed door, so that the scene in the room was clearly displayed in the eyes of Samantha and Rachel.

This is a fresh and clean study room, every book is neatly arranged without any confusion, the papers on the table are divided into several piles in an orderly manner, even the draft papers are also stacked meticulously, every other place Every corner of the details fully reflects the character of the host, Ha Wen, who is strict and conscientious to the point of being morbidly obsessive.

On the chair behind the desk, Ha Wen sat there quietly, a layer of clear ice crystals condensed on his body, even in the fiery temperature of July, they didn't melt much, but turned the surrounding air into white silk Frost.

Harvin in the ice was sitting very straight, wearing a standard high-tower mage's attire with a gray pointed hat and a large robe, coupled with the arcane badge on his chest, as if he was going to participate in the "Evans Arcane Award" or The awarding ceremony of the "Arcane Scepter Award".

His face was pale, with a hint of confusion, despair and relief in his stiff expression, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, as if he would stand up to welcome everyone at any time, but his eyes were empty and lifeless.

"This is really the way Harvin would choose to die, clean and refreshing, full of elegant demeanor..." Rachel whispered to Samantha.

They all knew Hawen. After all, they were both Arcanists who were hopeful to advance to the sixth ring in the tower. Well, the two of them are already high-level arcanists and magicians, but Harvin ended his life with ice and snow magic. This has to be said to be the epitome of the times.

Samantha thought of her hesitation, confusion and frustration during this period of time, and said in her heart: "In fact, in another ten years, Harvin will be promoted to a higher level... In fact, no matter how desperate you are, you should not give up lightly. It's me, I will live, live well, and see what the arcane world will look like, and see if our loss is worth it..."

"Havin himself has severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression. I have been trying to build a corresponding hormone magic to help him, but unfortunately..." Rachel talked about some of the ideas proposed by herself, the teacher and Lucien Evans. concept.

In the past, although this kind of psychological problem could be solved by magic, it was only a short-term effect, such as using spells such as mechanized mind, unless a magician was willing to abandon normal emotions and keep similar magic for a long time. It can be regarded as "completely solving" the problem, so there are not a few ancient magicians with extreme or crazy personalities!

As a good friend, Samantha is no stranger to the development of arcane arts in psychology, she nodded slightly and said: "In addition to the help of magic, daily enlightenment is also needed, but there is always a lack of basic theory in psychotherapy, and it is impossible to use the researched The bits and pieces come together to form a complete system."

While talking, the two walked into Harvin's room—as Harvin's friend and a high-level magician, the other arcanists acquiesced in their authority to handle this matter.

Thanks to Harvin's "good habits", Rachel and Samantha didn't spend much time searching, and found an unsealed letter in the corresponding position on the desk easily.

The patterned paper inside the letter has a faint scent of books, folded into a square shape.

Rachel was not careless. After careful inspection, she opened the letter paper and read the contents above softly:

"...I have been exhausted by the debates over the past period of time. I can't imagine that the foundation of the entire star system will be subverted, no, it is the loss of certainty in the entire material world...I keep arguing and debating with people, but the matter Development tends to go in the opposite direction..."

"...Recalling the rapid development of arcane arts in the past few years, I feel deeply confused. The things we fear, dread, and desperately resist are just the products of the theories we were happy and satisfied with before. How ridiculous..."

"...my brain is constantly thinking about all kinds of difficult and even contradictory problems. I can't get quiet for a second, but my thinking can't solve any dilemma. I'm tired and exhausted. I want to end this situation. Life……"

"...I cowardly made a decision. I don't think I can catch up with the development of arcane arts, nor can I accept such a development. I hope to return to the golden age of determinism in the 'dream'..."

After reading this letter full of exhaustion, despair, and bewilderment, Rachel suddenly felt the same way. Except for those few, most arcanists probably had similar feelings, only with different degrees of intensity.

"Haven... oh..." She wanted to say something, but in the end it turned into a sigh.

All the magicians who came fell silent, as if they were mourning for Haven and feeling sorry for themselves.

Samantha withdrew her gaze from Harvin's body and looked out of the window. The sun at noon in July was so brilliant, yet so dazzling.

Time passed by, Rachel cleared her throat, and was about to arrange the next thing. At this time, a tower magician came from the elevator, holding a thick book in his hand: ""Nature "A special issue of "Fundamentals of Mathematics and Physics" was released!"

There was obvious joy in his voice, and just a short flip through it seemed that he saw a palace of mathematics and physics with a rigorous structure.

""Fundamentals of Mathematics"?" Samantha asked subconsciously.

The tower magician happily replied loudly: "Yes, His Excellency Evans has answered many current mathematical problems. Through these answers, he has constructed a mathematical system with dense branches and solid foundations!"

He could only answer in this way, because before he had time to read carefully, suddenly, he discovered the situation in the study: "Ha, what's wrong with Ha Wen?"

The other magician briefly told him what happened and Harvin's last words, and he said angrily and regretfully: "I should have come up earlier, if Harvin read the book "Fundamentals of Mathematics and Physics", he would definitely rekindle his research. Passion for mathematics and science. Some time ago, I also had similar confusion and frustration, but now, these emotions can't dampen my enthusiasm for mathematics and science. It turns out that we still have so many things worth doing!"

Samantha and Rachel were a little exaggerated when they heard what he said, and couldn't help but want the books he bought for others in the storage bag, and directly browsed in Harvin's study.

Although they don't have time to look at the specific derivation process, just Lucien's proposal or redefinition of some concepts in the field of mathematics such as number theory, sets, groups, domains, and topologies refreshes them, as if they were scattered and random research in the past. Formed an inseparable whole, connected by flesh and blood.

Much of the content of this book does not exceed the scope of their knowledge, because it is based on various current research in the field of mathematics and physics, and has been integrated and further elucidated. The new concepts proposed in it are not very difficult to understand. Rigorous logical deduction process, and just hit the difficulties encountered by the current high tower arcanist.

Looking through this book, Samantha, Rachel and others seem to have seen the formation of new directions in the field of mathematics and science, and saw an unusually broad world!

"In the past, His Excellency Evans often said that mathematics cannot rely on arcane and magic, and cannot only serve to solve their problems. It should be an independent theory based on rigorous derivation and deduction, and has its own problems. Don’t pay attention to them if you don’t need them.” Rachel suddenly said with emotion, “I remember these words very clearly, and I think they make sense, but in actual research, I still ignore many problems. Now, I fully understand the meaning of it."

Sweeping away the previous sorrow, confusion and confusion, she looked quite alive, as if her passion had been rekindled.

Samantha also said very emotionally: "When I used scattered mathematical knowledge to solve problems in the past, although I finally achieved the goal, it always felt very obscure and difficult. It seemed that there were invisible walls blocking our efforts. Now, those walls are gone..."

"Well, Your Excellency Evans also conducted an in-depth analysis on axiomization, and gave a complete axiom system for tower geometry." An arcanist said the content of the latter part, although Lucien proposed the axiom very early Arcanists have also done some research and application of the concept of transformation in practice, but after seeing the geometric axiom system of the tower, he still faintly felt that the basic viewpoint of mathematics and science seemed to have quietly changed.

In the heated discussion atmosphere, Samantha stood up suddenly, rubbed a copy of the book in her hand, put it in front of Harvin, and then lit it with a flame.

"With the company of "Fundamentals of Mathematics and Physics", the world after your death will definitely be full of colors." She whispered.

The other arcanists also became quiet, and felt a sense of admiration in their hearts. Fortunately, "Fundamentals of Mathematics and Physics" was released at this time.

After dealing with Haven's funeral, Rachel, Samantha and others left his room one after another. During the process, the arcanists seized the time to continue reading: "'Current Difficult Problems in Mathematical Research'? "

"... Can any even number greater than 2 be written as the sum of two prime numbers..." After reading the question, he fell into dull thinking.

"Four-color problem?" Another arcanist turned to the next page.

After hearing what they said, Samantha and Rachel glanced at each other, and quickly turned to the following content.

All of a sudden, the corridor was full of statue-like Arcanists. They kept muttering something, with dazed and maddened expressions.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of footsteps woke up Samantha and Rachel, and they saw the circles of "dizziness" in each other's eyes.

So, Rachel laughed and said: "These questions are really scary. At first glance, they seem to be very simple, but when you think about them deeply, you will find that they are extremely difficult..."

"So, even Lord Evans is stumped." Samantha smiled rarely.

"One last question, the barber paradox?" Rachel read the last few pages, "...the barber in a small town made a promise after something 'I will only help all the people in the town who don't shave themselves Haircut', please, should he cut his own hair? What is the problem?"

"This..." After Samantha thought deeply, the book in her hand fell to the ground with a bang.

Boom, boom, the other arcanists who heard Rachel's words also let the books fall to the ground in astonishment.

This is a well-known paradox about set theory, which, at the current level of research, implies a shake-up of set theory, which is the foundation of the field of mathematics, so, so to speak, this paradox makes people doubt The effectiveness of the basic structure of the entire mathematical field!

"Just now I was delighted with the perfection of set theory, but now I have to face the horror and despair caused by it..." An arcanist said words similar to Harvin's last words just now.

…………

Elestine and Nordaniel wandered around the city of Allinger, and saw many arcanists studying leisurely and hard under the shade of trees.

"It's really hard work, no wonder the Magic Council can develop so quickly." Elestine sighed, and then looked at one of the young magicians curiously, "What book is he reading?"

"Mathematics...basics..." Nordaniel recognized each word with his strong eyesight.

"Mathematics..." Elestine nodded, and was about to turn around to leave when Nordaniel added in doubt: "A red cross was drawn on these words, and there are other handwritten words below... ..."

Elestine became more and more curious: "What word?"

Nordaniel carefully discerned again: "The devil... the book..."

"The Devil's Book?" Elestine repeated in bewilderment.
