An Fei, are you still up so late? " Thor's low voice came.
"Teacher, you are back." An Fei said with a smile. He was thinking about something in the back garden when he suddenly found Sol walking in from the side door. It was too late to avoid him and he could only wait where he was. Today is not the right day to talk to Saul. With Saul's intelligence, he must be very clear about how much confusion his attendance at Glendon's banquet will cause Chris, whether it is a deep conversation or a shallow conversation.
"I've been back for a long time." Sol nodded: "You have been here all the time? Why didn't you go to bed?"
"I'm looking at the stars, teacher. I feel that today's night sky is particularly charming." Since we can't talk about it, we have to change the topic, but this excuse is a bit disgusting.
"Stars?" Sol raised his head, cast his gaze on the night sky, and after a while he slowly said: "I haven't observed the starry sky for a long time. An Fei, do you know what the stars in the sky are made of?" ?"
"This... is composed of fire elements." Stars are stars. This is astronomical knowledge that even children understand. However, An Fei guessed that Sol would not understand the specific composition of stars, so he could only use the fire element to deal with it.
Thor's body stiffened suddenly, his eyes widened, and he shouted in surprise: "What did you say?"
"I said those stars are all made of fire elements." An Fei was also a little surprised. There is no need to be so nervous, right? He coughed lightly: "Teacher, do you think I was wrong?"
“The Book of Genesis says that after the God of Creation created the world, he felt very tired, so he decided to return to his own realm to rest. However, he was worried about the world he had created, and finally cut his finger, and the God’s blood spilled into the air. It turned into countless stars. According to the Light Canon, the God of Light felt very painful when he saw that all people were living in lies, violence, chaos, and boundless lust, and the tears he shed eventually turned into stars."
"God is lying to people. Or rather, God's followers are lying to people." An Fei shrugged.
"I understand. Did your teacher tell you that?"
An Fei thought for a while. Nodding: "Yes."
"He is indeed a saint-level powerhouse!" Thor sighed: "Three years ago, I barely sensed a very weak magic wave in the starlight. I originally thought this was a unique discovery, but I didn't. I thought of it..."
"Weak because the distance is too far." An Fei smiled and said: "The distance between those stars and us is unimaginable. The stars we see are not the stars now, but hundreds or thousands of years ago. Even the stars tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years ago." An Fei said very naturally. He was not worried that these incredible theories would bring harm to him, from an academic environment. It's very open here. In order to restore the glory of ancient times, the magic guild will never suppress magicians who propose amazing theories, and the greatest role of the magic laboratory is to find the basis for those theories that are still unexplainable. What believers of God want is faith and perseverance. When the whole world is shrouded in the halo of God, and countless people who have lost their passion live peacefully, this is heaven, and they do not want heaven to be affected. What the magicians want is new discoveries, and the ancient records clearly tell them. Their journey of exploration has just begun.
Thor stayed for a moment. A piece of magic was released casually. The earth element condensed into two chairs, and Thor took out a gorgeous blanket from the space ring. Covered on the chair: "Come, let's sit down and talk." If someone else said these words, Sol might not be moved, but An Fei is different. What An Fei said is most likely that of the saint-level powerhouse. A description of what the world is made of.
"Teacher, please sit down first." An Fei was humble.
Sol sat down, waved to An Fei, and asked hurriedly: "An Fei, tell me, why are we seeing stars from tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years ago?" Sol He acted upright, as if the roles were reversed, and he became An Fei's student.
"Light has speed. We can see stars because the light emitted from the stars has reached our world." An Fei picked up a small stone, flicked his finger, and the stone shot straight into the flowers: " It’s the same as this stone, except that the speed of light is countless times faster than the speed of the stone.”
"God said, let there be light, so the world was filled with light, light... and speed?"
"Yes, light travels very fast and can sweep across our world in the blink of an eye, so we can't feel it."
"Wait a minute, you said we can see the stars because the starlight comes to our world?"
"Um."
"What we see are stars tens of thousands of years ago. That means that the starlight traveled tens of thousands of years to reach our world?" Thor laughed: "Then you said that the speed of light is very fast, blinking. Can our world be swept away by each other? Isn’t this contradictory?”
"It's not contradictory." An Fei said seriously.
The smile on Sol's face stiffened and he looked at An Fei blankly. Although he had extraordinary intelligence, he really couldn't understand what An Fei said.
"If the starry sky is as vast as the ocean, then our world is just a grain of sand on the beach."
"We live on a grain of sand?" Saul said in disbelief.
"Almost, and the stars are not as peaceful as we imagined. The temperature of the stars is very high, thousands of times higher than the temperature of the lava in hell. Let's put it this way, even if you throw a piece of mithril on the stars, it will It will turn into ashes in an instant."
Sol looked at An Fei and then at the starry sky. Sometimes, people's imagination has certain limits. Sol couldn't imagine such a far distance, nor could he imagine what kind of existence the stars were: "Okay. Come on, An Fei, let those stars go to hell, let me ask you, has your teacher ever told you about the structure of this world?" Thor was so emotional that he actually said swear words.
"What is the composition of this world?" An Fei was stunned and pondered. He knew the answer, but he didn't know where to start.
Seeing that An Fei didn't reply for a long time, Thor decided to make some comments: "This world is made of elements!"
"element?"
"Yes, elements! The earth, oceans, forests, countless monsters, all kinds of intelligent life, including your and my bodies, and even those gods, are all made of elements. If all the elements disappear , even the gods cannot exist."
An Fei smiled. He really admired Sol. In the history of modern science, so many scientists have been conducting research one after another, getting closer to the truth bit by bit, and finally came up with the theory of atoms. Sol alone, It is really not easy to come up with similar theories based on the perception of elements.
When Thor saw An Fei smiling, his expression became even more excited. He grabbed An Fei's shoulders and said, "Can you understand me?" It is easy to understand that the earth and the ocean are composed of elements, but Sol's point is Life, even the gods are included in it. His idea is too sensational, and this idea cannot be easily expressed. In the minds of most people, studying magic does not mean that they can blaspheme the gods, so see An Fei can understand himself, which makes Sol so excited.
Man was created by God. This is an unquestionable fact. Anyone who dares to question it will be criticized, reviled, and even hurt by thousands of people in the world.
"This is not a matter of understanding or not, teacher, what you said is the truth of the world."
"He...your teacher also said that?" Sol's tone was choked.
"Uh...yeah."
"I didn't go the wrong way!" Saul let out a long breath, leaned back in his chair, and slowly closed his eyes. He felt sincerely relieved to get a positive answer. Judging from his age, , he can no longer afford mistakes.
At this moment, An Fei was also wandering. He remembered a term, non-mainstream quantum physics, which was the name given to a group of unconventional quantum physicists by Americans at the end of the twentieth century. Hawking said that the existence of matter is the superposition of waves. Quantum physicists have developed various theories based on Hawking's theory. Some believe that human will is also a kind of fluctuation. When this kind of fluctuation is strong enough, it will completely disappear. The wave function can be changed, that is to say, human will can affect matter. It is said that they have done relevant experiments and made certain progress. At that time, An Fei had watched a movie introducing non-mainstream quantum physics, but he watched it with the idea of adjusting his mood. After watching it once, he only vaguely understood it. However, if that theory is used in this magical world, , which is exactly consistent.
Sol opened his eyes and looked at An Fei. The more he looked at An Fei, the more he liked him: "An Fei, if one day in the future, among all my students, there can be someone who is better than others, I believe that It must be you." This was Saul's true words. In fact, he didn't know that An Fei was still very reserved. If An Fei told everything, it would definitely make Saul's brain extremely confused.
"Teacher, I can be considered an intermediate magician at most, but I'm still far from it." An Fei said with a wry smile.
"No, you have a strong understanding, you will surpass them."
"By the way, teacher, I have some questions for you. When you released the meteorite technique, did you create a meteorite out of thin air? Also, when Brother Entos released teleportation, how did he move?" An Fei has accumulated a lot of questions these days, and today is just an opportunity to ask them.
"Heh... you still have a lot of questions. Don't worry, come one at a time." Sol said with a smile.
