Vol 4 Chapter 61: Starry sky above
道 In the small living room of "Real Secret", Douglas saw Franks.
Due to his failure to promote the legend, many magic rituals that can last more than five hundred years cannot be used. The whole person is quite old, his hair is thin and pale, his skin is full of wrinkles, and old spots are unusually eye-catching, but his pair of blue The eyes are as deep as the sea, as if carrying the wisdom of countless hours.
"Franks, why are you here? Are you planning to hold a Lich Transformation Ceremony?" Douglas asked casually. As a member of the Panel, when the war was just set and all things awaited, he should really be too busy to see people. Already.
Franks shook his head and smiled: "Becoming a Lich will give up many enjoyments and desires as a person, and may even become insane and insane by being attacked by negative energy. It is really not a good choice. I have no idea but to wait Wait, see if there is any chance to recognize the semi-solidified world. "
"You have a very good idea. The speed of the development of arcane and magic in the past ten years has made me feel terrible. Maybe it won't be long before there is a new theory or new achievement for you that will allow you to accumulate years Transformed into the semi-solid foundation of the cognitive world. "Douglas nodded slightly in favor of Franks' choice.
In his mind, this stage of the crazy development of arcane was prelude to Felipe's research on cellular memory, and officially started with the submission of Lucian's periodic table of elements. He seemed to see the birth of two new legendary magicians, so When Vicente tried to free Felipe from the demigod event, he agreed, allowing the proposal to pass.
Franks chuckled: "Speaker, it is very likely that it will not be long before there are new theories or results of arcane that are suitable for my current bottleneck, but they are also more likely to burst my head, especially Lucian Evan. This headshot, headshot demon. "
Douglas smiled and shook his head, knowing that Lucian was "notorious" in the hearts of the magicians: "The progress he has brought has not yet been fully demonstrated. Maybe three years, maybe five years and ten years, you can see him propose The value of those new theories. "
Franks smiled, "Like" On the Electrodynamics and Mass Energy Equations of Moving Objects? "
Douglas's smile faded away, and she said, "Yes."
Franks continued: "I felt completely confident when I saw this thesis, as if the cognitive world would collapse at any time, not because of being shocked by the genius of Lucien Evans, but by self-recognition. Known skepticism, skepticism of the arcane system of the past few hundred years. "
"My Excellency Douglas, I have followed you step by step since the dawn of the war to build the parliament from the oppression of the church and the swing of the aristocracy. Your theory of gravity and your movement system have guided me to transform my thoughts into arcane The lighthouse of spirit, but now, one of the two lighthouses was suddenly declared wrong and collapsed. I really don't know what to believe. I feel as if the ship in the storm has become dark before and can no longer find its direction. "
Douglas' voice became lower: "It is not a mistake, but a low-speed approximation of the theory of relativity."
Suddenly the atmosphere became weird and seemed to have unspeakable silence and depression.
Franks looked at Douglas sincerely: "Sir Speaker, the low-speed approximation actually means that your sports system ignores too many things, has too many errors, can only be applied in such a macro state, and what time is space Space is time, time depends on matter, and it is a function of speed. Don't you think it completely subverts our perception? "
"It's really different from intuitive understanding. It's hard to imagine. When I first saw it, I had the feeling of being completely negated in the past thousand years." Douglas admitted quite honestly that he always had this attitude towards the problem of arcane art.
Franks said very gravely: "Probably our past research is still very superficial, it is still at the surface of the world, and it is not close to reality at all, so this situation has appeared. Maybe we are very far away from the real world, maybe we When we are really close to 'real', we will find that it is completely different from what we now think and insist on, and may even be against us. "
确实 "Indeed, the more I study arcane, the more I discover my ignorance, whether it is time, space, matter, energy, or my best gravitational force." Douglas's eyes were confused again.
Franks exhaled softly: "The reality of the world is beginning to exceed our imagination. More and more questions we cannot answer, more and more things are pointing to the same thing. What is the nature of gravity, it was originally How did it happen, and if your celestial motion system is in place, what was it that gave the planet power to spin in the first place? "
"This is also my question. What exactly is gravity providing and how does it spread, how did it come about in the first place, how did the celestial movement system be established, and sometimes I have to admit that the more I know, the more It's confused, the more I fear, maybe I've been wrong from beginning to end. "Douglas's voice seemed a little hazy.
Franks ’blue eyes grew deeper, his right hand spread out, and his voice was strengthened with gestures:“ Maybe we should find an explanation from philosophy, maybe there is a first impetus, there is a source that creates everything. In that case, gravity The system, the celestial movement system, can be perfectly constructed. "
Perhaps in the face of an old friend and discussing arcane issues, Douglas did not hide it, and his voice was a little plainly: "Sometimes, I can't help thinking about it, probably there is a supreme existence, there is the first The driving force, otherwise the entire arcane system cannot be explained from the source. It is like a villa without a foundation. It will collapse and be destroyed when a gust of wind blows. "
The atmosphere became stranger and more peaceful, and Franks' eyes seemed to flash with light: "That is to say, without the first impulse, your system of gravity and movement will collapse."
"Yes," Douglas added, adding, "At least for now, but maybe another arcane explanation will be found in the future.
"
Franks said in a low voice, "What is the origin of the whole world? Who am I? Who is me? Where are we from? Where are we going? Can these questions be explained by arcane research?"
"For the time being, it is still in the realm of philosophy." Douglas shook his head.
Franks also shook his head and said, "No, it is a theological category. As long as we recognize that there is a supreme existence and the first impetus, these problems can be explained."
Douglas opened his mouth, what he was about to say, and suddenly his pupils contracted: "Who are you? You are not Franks!"
Franks seemed to have something in his body, and the breath became holy and peaceful: "You can call me Benedict III."
"Pope ... what are you doing here? What about Franks?" Douglas was not too panicked, in his own half plane, in his magic tower, even if the pope, the silver moon, and the Lord of Hell came, he I also have the confidence to fight—provided that there is no surrender, so the pope, who is projected into Frank's body in a strange way, is not afraid.
The magic tower energy flowed, one by one mysterious magic array opened, and the "real secret place" outside went directly into the night, starry in the darkness.
The Pope Benedict III only smiled at such a change: "Franks was willing to let me project, otherwise I could also project it into the body of an unwilling master mage."
"It turned out that he is already a church person. No wonder so many things have leaked before. I have always suspected that there is a spy on the panel, but I didn't expect it to be him." Douglas faced this kind of spy with the highest level of inexplicable sorrow, with himself An old friend who worked hard to build a magic council, turned to his enemies in his old age?
He is also very grateful for this. The "Mushroom Cloud" plan only selected a few committees that passed the test of trust to know the general situation. There was no Franks in it.
Benedict III is very peaceful and authentic: "Franks realized the problem of arcane roots, so he returned to the embrace of the Lord, Douglas. Don't deny it. Your heart has begun to believe in the first impetus and believe in a supreme existence.
"
"Yes, I can't deny that I believe in the first impetus and the supreme existence." Douglas answered blankly.
Benedict III showed a hint of joy: "Very well, if you are willing to be baptized, you will be the first saint of the church, will be given the Holy Name by the Lord, and later become the Pope, explore the secrets of the god-like, and truly get eternal life and peace. . "
Suddenly Douglas chuckled twice: "I believe these, does not mean that I will believe in the God of truth."
为什么 "Why? Don't you know the power of Descendants? Didn't you see the projection of Heaven Mountain? If you are willing to join the church, I can now reveal the secrets of the god-like realm to you."
Douglas smiled at the starry sky outside the window: "Benedict III, you have probably only been to Heterospace. Have you never explored the starry sky like our magician?"
"So what?" Benedict III did not understand why Douglas said so.
Douglas watched the starry sky with rare fanaticism and obsession: "Only if you have been there can you understand how vast and endless the starry sky is. Compared with it, I, you, Silvermoon, Lord of Hell, and even the entire world They are so small, like dust on the ground. "
"Even if I believe in the first impetus, I absolutely don't believe that such a great existence will hide in such a small world and compete with us and vampires for territory."
"He may accept our prayers and make our hearts peaceful, but directly drop the grace and divine art, encourage the church to fight for resources and sites in this world, the" God of truth ", and being awesome by itself It ’s nothing compared to the stark sky. "
Speaking of which, Douglas looked back and looked at Benedict III with a smile:
所以 "So he deserves me?"
笃 Benedict III was so pale that Douglas was really confused, but his direction was completely wrong.
"I want to know the secrets of the gods, but I don't want to rely on this way." Douglas smiled calmly. "One day, you will find that our magician is not the enemy of faith, because our eyes are not as narrow as yours. Is confined to such a small place. "
"The future of our magician is closer to the 'real', in the vast sky!"
Benedict III sighed: "God-like is harder than you think. Sometimes broadness does not necessarily mean truth. Higher-level, higher-form existence is. Since you refuse, then I say goodbye. . "
"Let Franks go. He has the credit for establishing a magic council. I don't want to hold him accountable, but ask him to leave the council." Douglas also sighed, apparently Benedict III was only projecting to kill Franks couldn't hurt him, and at the same time, he planned to tell Helen, who was guarding Aringe, to pay close attention to Franks' movements, so as not to cause him damage.
Benedict III didn't hesitate anymore, got up and walked out of the magic tower. When he stepped into the teleportation array, Franks' entire body suddenly melted, condensing into drops of blood with holy light, and then this blood painted a weird symbol to cover all the space. The node is blocked, as if Douglas closed the half plane by himself.
Douglas frowned, trying to open it, but found that it would take at least two days, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "This is a god-like method? I can temporarily block my half plane by sacrificing my own projection and a nine-ring master. ? "
He was very thankful for this. If he was waiting for the church to prepare to fight, this method of letting the legendary peak magician temporarily unable to leave the half plane was very deadly, which meant that it would be divided and the council's original strength would be Far worse than the church, and then divided is the end of destruction.
"Fortunately, he launched in advance and took the initiative in his own hands, but what did Benedict III want to do?" Douglas did not think he would go to war again at this stage, unless he wanted to use the credit of destroying the church to vote in Parliament, so he felt It is not urgent, but more doubtful.
"Although the method just carried the Holy Light, it is more like some unique magic of ancient magicians, strange and inexplicable. It seems that in the process of destroying the empire, the church has gained a lot of classics."
