Sword of Daybreaker

Summer is nearing the end.

The stream of fire at night began to shift toward the sky on the west side, and the heat began to recede from the whole kingdom. The morning and evening winds became cool and pleasant. After a few abundant rains, the autumn breath would be a day. More than one day.

The magical rune of the mysterious complex floats in the air like a star, and the crystal device used to display the rune structure is fixed on the base of the alloy. The surface is shining with the magic glow, and a low humming sound echoes in the laboratory. Carmel quietly floats between the illusory magic runes, and the arcane radiance of both eyes is as bright as ever.

Here is the largest analysis room of the Rune Institute. Today's work task is to analyze the technical data brought by the elves.

Several senior runes of the Rune Institute have copied the rune structures of several key nodes, and a tall, thin, fair-haired male elf stands by Carmel, the elf’s gaze. Occasionally it will fall on Carmel. Obviously, a powerful arcane creature makes this Elf Magister special.

Carmel did not care about the eyes of the Elf Magister. He devoted almost all his energy to the runes that had just been translated and parsed. After carefully observing its core structure, he couldn’t help but say: "Banna Master The core mechanism of this purification array is some kind of...modulation and resonance?"

"You are right, Master Carmel," said the wizard's elf mentor, nodded. "Through a long study of the chaotic magic, we found that it is still a magic in nature. What is not considered to be the 'pollution of waste energy', since it is magic, it is possible to order it by re-adjusting and resonating. This is the idea of ​​'purification'."

Carmel's gaze fell between the runes of the runes, and his tone gradually became a little excited: "That is, you treated the magic as a 'wave' and succeeded?!"

"The wave"..." The Elf Magi suddenly stunned and looked at Carmel unexpectedly. "You also introduced this concept?!"

"...we did not introduce this concept until recently, and it is still not possible to confirm this, only as a conjecture," Carmel said. "We applied magic in the process of refactoring and reconstructing spells." The volatility of the wave, both mathematically and by example, has been confirmed by its volatility, but we still lack evidence of observable evidence."

"We introduced this concept 40 years ago. The great star wizard Veronica proposed that the magic is a wave of hypothesis, and the theoretical magical magical wavelength is derived from several magical magic spell models. Scope, her theory is the basis for purifying the array but unfortunately we have not been able to obtain observable evidence..."

Carmel suddenly turned around and looked at the Elf Magister in front of his eyes: "Do you encounter interference?"

"You have also met?!" The spirit of the Elf Magister named Benner was not surprised. At this moment his attention was completely absent from Carmel's arcane spirit. The elf from the Silver Empire never thought. However, in the far side of the mainland, in the country of aliens, in the human society of total decline, the human magicians are also studying the essence of magic, but even the human research has been so deep, even encountered Go to the bottleneck that the elves have encountered!

“The interference is everywhere, the whole world is shrouded in a powerful magical environment, so that it can’t be observed at all,” Carmel is also surprised that the elves are doing the same research as humans, which is like traveling alone in the desert. Suddenly met the same travel companion, his "heart" that has long been no longer beating or even disappeared seems to have re-invigorated. "What kind of experiment did you design?"

The Elf Magister quickly calmed down after a brief horror. He did not conceal the problem: "Variana designed an interference experiment. We prepared a pure Arcane energy source to ensure that it has only a very small amount of 'impurities'. Then the arcane energy is concentrated into a beam and directed to a crystal lattice. The crystal lattice is made of a thin crystal of the magic crystal, and two narrow slits are placed in the front. In theory, the pure arcane energy passes through the magic crystal. The flakes will exhibit volatility: the magic waves passing through the two slits should interfere with each other and form interference fringes on the projection plate coated with the developing dust..."

"But there is only a white noise, is it?" Camille followed, "any pattern projected on the viewing interface is covered by a more intense natural magic field, just like watching a weak beam under strong light. The glimmer is not realistic. In fact, the faint pure arcane energy may not even reach the projection board at all, and it is neutralized by the magic field in the environment..."

Banner regretfully sighed: "As you said, the experiment failed. It seems that you also..."

"We also designed a similar experiment, and the experimental idea was proposed by the Duke of Cecil," Carmel's voice was low. "We also failed to observe the interference fringes, but mathematics told me that it should have existed."

The Elf Magister has some surprises: "Does the Duke of Govin Cecil have such an accomplishment in the field of magic?"

“The Duke is very knowledgeable, and he has been exposed to extraordinary knowledge and wisdom in the seven hundred years of his soul,” Carmel said with conviction. “Just... he can’t solve the problem of the magical interference of the natural environment. Have you tried the magic field?"

"The highest level of forbidden magic field only suppresses the magic reaction to a certain extent, and at the same time exerts interference on the mental power of the operator to block the casting process. The magic itself cannot be banned," the Elf Magister shakes with a smile. Shaking his head, "We have also tried to create a 'dark room' with expensive anti-magic crystals to block the magic in nature, but due to process limitations, we can't guarantee complete isolation of the entire darkroom, as long as there is a little leak... Interference is like a devil."

Carmel can imagine how hard the elves have worked to create such a "dark room."

Because the natural magic is pervasive, the magic interference observation experiment must ensure that the observer is also in the darkroom environment, and a dark room that can accommodate the observer, even if the space is cramped, is also a huge "box", and the magic crystal is expensive. Secondly, it is necessary to process such a huge crystal and to ensure that it does not have any "leakage points"... obviously beyond the craftsmanship of the elves.

Even the elves can't do it, and humans may not be able to do it.

"Our next step is to turn to the goblin family in the Ogure tribe. The goblins are small and can be drilled into a small dark room. Smaller darkrooms are possible," Banner sighed. "But it's hard to say if we can find a goblin who is willing to help, after all... they don't like being locked up."

......

Gao Wen sat at the desk and quietly listened to Carmel’s report.

"...the lord, in summary, the elves have encountered the same problems as us, the magical interference in the natural environment."

"It’s a devil-like disturbance..."

Gao Wen sighed softly, and his mind was ups and downs.

What is the essence of magic?

This problem has been entangled in him since he was unveiled. The ubiquitous natural force, the seemingly endless amount of energy, has made Gao Wen deeply doubtful when it comes to convenience. He has always been I want to understand the nature and source of the magic, and until now, the results he and his research team have achieved are still embarrassing.

They can only be sure now that the source of magic is inseparable from the "sun" in the sky, and its essence... "maybe" is a certain wave.

Yes, although there are already some application examples, such as Magic Network communication technology, there are some calculation conclusions, but for this kind of "things" that exist, as long as one day can not find observable phenomena, one day can not be completely To determine its definition, at this stage, Gao Wen and Carmel can only say magic, "maybe" is a certain wave.

This is a regrettable situation.

It is there, its nature, its possible essence, has come to the fore, but the most critical observation has become the biggest obstacle to the researcher. The magic of nature is everywhere, which brings the rapid development of magic technology. It also brings great difficulties in some research projects.

The classic experiment that Gao Wen can think of to verify volatility is the double-slit interference experiment. He knows how the double-slit interference on the earth is realized. But in this world, this classic experiment is difficult to verify because of the magic in the natural environment. Covers all observations.

The magic intensity in nature is far stronger than the two arcane flows through the slit during the experiment. It forms a white noise on the reflector, and the pure one-way arcane flow that should interfere with it is completely erased. There are traces of existence, and for the same reason, the experiment to observe the magic version of "Poisson Bright Spot" has not been successful.

The idea of ​​the elves may be the best solution to build a darkroom, trying to shield the magical interference of nature.

However, this is not easy.

On Earth, if you want to avoid the influence of strong light in nature, you can only observe the interference fringes, you only need to use the shading material to block, but in this world, the natural substances that can block the magic are extremely rare and difficult to process. The expensive magic crystal is The most suitable material that can be found, it can effectively block the magic. The baffle in the double-slit interference experiment is made of it, but the magic crystal is processed into a dark room... even in the early days. It's hard to do it easily.

“In fact, I have another solution,” Carmel said. “Using a stronger source of arcane, the energy passing through the double slits exceeds the magical value of nature, so that interference fringes can be observed outside the darkroom. Or even if we can't observe it, we can observe two burning traces. At least we can verify whether the magic is a wave. According to my calculation, the existing rainbow light gun is in full compliance with this condition."

"I also thought about this plan, but the premise of this plan is that we have to find a more stable and stronger material than the magic crystal," Gao Wen brows up. "Although the magic crystal can block the magic, but after all, it bears The limit, the rainbow light cannon... will burn any baffle."

Carmel is silent.

Gao Wen asked after a brief thought: "Is the elf astrologer who proposed the concept of magical fluctuations called Velania?"

"Yes."

"Only forty years... As an elf, she should still be working for Elf Wang Ting today."

"Yes, according to Banner Bai Yu, the astrologer Veronica is still working for Elf Wang Ting, and is continuing to study the magic fluctuations. She is also one of the R&D staff of the 'Clean Array'."

"The elves are walking in front of us...if you can reach a deeper cooperation with them," Gao Wen sighed softly. "Carmel, you think... use the magical power of the magnificent wall to connect, and then With our Magic Network communication terminal and a set of translation devices, can we establish a remote communication with the Silver Empire?"

“This is a very challenging idea, but I can give it a try.”

Gao Wen nodded: "Go and try."
