Richard continued: "This is similar to a collider. To explain it simply, it's like I don't have the ability to separate two stones with my bare hands and see what's inside the stone. Then I can grab a stone each and collide them hard. Together. If this goes on many times, eventually one stone will break, or two stones will break at the same time, and then I will know what is inside the stone."
"Huh..."
After hearing this, Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief in her heart... She could finally understand this again.
After glancing at Jasmine, Richard said with a serious expression: "Forcibly combining the extraordinary factors and studying the phenomena after the combination has been my main work in the past three years."
"What's the result?" Jasmine asked.
"The result... I can only say that it is more complicated than I imagined." Richard said, "In the first period of time, the extraordinary factor combination experiments failed. Based on the failure, I did not give up and continued to improve the steps and experiments. energy, and try to test different combinations of extraordinary factors.
Finally, after hundreds of experiments, I forcibly combined multiple extraordinary factors together, resulting in a phenomenon that was very counterintuitive - the extraordinary factors did not bounce off or explode like the previous experiments, but were combined together. Forming a substance that has never existed before? "
"Matter? What does it... look like?"
"It's hard to describe." Richard said, "First of all, it has no entity. It is essentially a ball of energy, so it can change its shape at will. In addition, it is difficult to observe with the naked eye, and special instruments are needed to determine its position. Also , it has incredible penetrating ability and can easily penetrate the wall of any container without damaging it. Only high-energy energy can affect it, but it cannot be completely imprisoned and can only be roughly limited to a certain range.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that in the subsequent series of studies, this substance has a stress response and deliberately avoids being captured by the high-energy energy network. To put it simply, this thing has a certain intelligence. It is not a substance, but a living thing. "
"Creature?" Jasmine's eyes couldn't help but widen. Even though she was a fourth-level wizard, she felt a cold air coming from her back. Because what Richard said was too scary. It didn't feel like research, but more like telling a ghost story.
biology? Energy creatures that are difficult to observe with the naked eye
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that there were hundreds or thousands of such creatures around her now. In her imagination, these creatures should have a jellyfish-like appearance and were swimming in the air around her.
Richard smiled at Jasmine and asked, "Can you imagine, I originally wanted to study more basic components than extraordinary factors, but in the end I created a strange creature composed of extraordinary factors.
But no matter what, this is an important discovery. I call this creature a 'spirit', conducted numerous experiments, and obtained a large amount of data. Through the data, I can confirm that the 'spirit' is very magical and has a series of powerful extraordinary attributes. If you thoroughly study the 'spirit', you can definitely make further progress in the field of extraordinary power research.
But what I didn't expect was that on the morning of the ninth day after the creature was born, after another test obtained the data, something strange happened - the 'spirit' suddenly disappeared without any warning under the restrictions of the ultra-high-energy energy network, just like It was like the water on the ground evaporated and disappeared without a trace. "
When Richard said this, he was silent for a while before continuing: "I thought of many explanations for the disappearance of the 'spirit', but none of them were reasonable. In the end, I had to give up the explanation and try to create a 'spirit' for the second time.
However, it was also from here that things became more and more abnormal. I tried to restore all the conditions for creating the 'spirit' for the first time, and started the extraordinary factor combination test with the exact same values. As a result, no 'spirit' was produced, and all the extraordinary factors were bounced away.
Then the third time I tried to create a 'spirit', the fourth, fifth, sixth... I tried hundreds of times, but all failed. Later, if there were not a large amount of recorded data as evidence, I would have doubted whether the 'spirit' really existed.
At this point, things have already entered a difficult situation. I didn't give up easily. I thought that maybe there was an error in the numerical records when I first created the 'spirit', so I fine-tuned various values and tried hundreds of times. When no new 'spirit' appears after hundreds of experiments, it is considered that the research has reached a dead end.
To be honest, if it hadn't been for that accident, this research might have been sealed, and I would have invested my time and energy in other research. But it was that accident that led me to discover new hope and led to a series of breakthroughs in the study of 'spirit'. "
"Accident?" After hearing this, Jasmine looked at Richard and asked slightly confused, "What accident?"
"You know." Richard explained, "It was the magic accident at the ninth branch of Atlanta School, Atlanta School of Magic and Occultism, more than a year ago."
"That's it!" Jasmine raised her eyebrows. As for the spell accident, she had personally participated in handling it. The result of the handling was that the Ninth Branch had only existed in rumors in Atlanta City, but until now she had I know there is such an inside story.
"More than a year ago, some students from the School of Magic and Mystery, under the guidance of Wizard Mok, conducted an improvement experiment." Richard said slowly, "Wizard Mok transferred from the School of Magic Physics to He is from the School of Magic and Mystery and has done research on high-energy physics of magic. Therefore, he used some high-energy physics methods to improve the experiment. As a result, a 'spirit' was produced during the experiment.
There are many differences between this 'spirit' and the first 'spirit' I produced. First of all, it is dozens of times larger in size. In addition, it exists for a very short time and disappears after just a few seconds. Finally, this 'spirit' is different from the gentleness of the first 'spirit', and has a strong tendency to attack. It caused Wizard Mock to fall into a coma after being attacked. Dozens of students who participated in the experiment were also severely mentally damaged. It also produced a continuous dark energy erosion effect, contaminating nearly the entire School of Magic and Occultism.
For this reason, the entire college had to be devastated and the losses were considerable. However, at the same time as the loss, I also noticed one thing - Mock Wizard's experiment, compared with my extraordinary factor combination experiment, is partially similar in terms of high-energy physics of spells, but the details are completely different. In this case "Spirit" can still be produced, which shows that there is not only one condition for the production of "spirit". This is similar to the fact that low temperature can liquefy gas, but in addition to low temperature, high pressure can also vaporize liquid. "
