When the Saint comes, she does not collect food

Kerr Ben's research results ten years later?

Hearing this, even Horn, who was experienced and had seen a lot, had his brain freeze for a moment.

Directly obtaining technology from the future, is the No Dream Hermitage's divination magic so powerful?

If you have this technology, why are you staying in Black Serpent Bay as a secret society!

To make sure he hadn't misheard, Horn cautiously asked, "Are you using a metaphor when you say research results from ten years later?"

"No, it's literally the research results from ten years later."

"I've never heard of anyone, or any witch, being able to predict information ten years into the future in such detail."

"Others can't, but that doesn't mean we can't." Seeing the doubt in Horn's mind, Istra explained, "Has Your Excellency ever wondered why most divination spells are displayed with pendulums and astrolabes, instead of directly transmitting images into the brain?"

Since arriving in this world, Horn had seen many divination spells, both from witches and ordinary wizards.

Whether divining the past or the future, most divinations required astrological charts, tarot cards, or dice.

Only divinations about the present could directly show images.

He had always assumed that seeing images of the future and the past wasn't possible. Did Istra mean that it was possible?

"Is it because divination without these tools would cause harm to the body?" Horn asked, recalling.

Istra smiled and nodded: "You're right. Divination is essentially a simulated deduction from the present to the past and the future, not true prediction.

According to the witches who have directly faced the results of divination, a million possibilities flood the brain in an instant.

The human brain obviously has its limits and cannot withstand such a huge amount of information.

If it exceeds the tolerance range, then the person will either be in a coma for life, or directly explode and die.

For early astrologers, each divination was a life-threatening adventure..."

The witch, whose age was unknown, lowered her eyes, and the pure sunlight shone on her thick and trembling eyelashes.

Horn stood with his back to the sun, his expression hidden in the shadow of the backlight, with only a pair of bright eyes staring at the eloquent Istra.

"...So what should we do? The solution we came up with was to use crystal balls, pendulums, and tarot cards to replace and simplify the process.

The information carried by tarot cards is obviously limited, which can reduce the damage to the brain.

But this also requires analysis of the results of the tools. The Tarot Society is the leader in this path."

But they have one major problem, which is that they are too brief and full of randomness.

And our No Dream Hermitage, and the White Mountain Hermitage, both use another method, which is the combination of mental magic and divination magic.

The White Mountain Hermitage uses the unconscious, while the No Dream Hermitage uses dreams.

Astrologers use witches as the center, and mental mages work together to construct dreams to reduce the impact, in order to obtain more precise and complex divination results.

Under normal circumstances, divination cannot divine to the level of text, but our dream divination can do it..."

Horn suddenly understood that they were relying on this trick to divine the future.

But even he, an outsider, noticed the clue: "You use dreams as divination tools and get more complex results. Doesn't that require more complex interpretation?"

"Of course it does." Istra admitted, "Take this scholar Kerr Ben's research results ten years later as an example.

First, Novia brought back Scholar Kerr Ben's early research and a large number of draft papers and ideas.

We used these things to perform dream divination and obtained a series of dream symbols.

If we were to decode these dream symbols normally, it would take at least twenty or thirty years.

Maybe by the time we decode them successfully, not only will the research results have been published, but Scholar Kerr Ben will already be dead."

"In that case, how did you... Wait!" As he asked this, a flash of inspiration struck Horn's mind.

At the end of last year, Black Serpent Bay imported three boxes of hand-cranked calculators. Could it be...

"Hand-cranked calculator?"

"In addition to the hand-cranked calculator, there are also your mathematics and natural science books." Istra said unhurriedly, "Students at the Holy Machine Court University are happy to earn extra money, and they are quite knowledgeable in semiotics and dream studies."

"And dream studies?!" Horn blinked hard.

"This is a well-known philosophy inherited from the El Empire. Many scholars have more or less dabbled in it.

There are even those who use dream studies to treat diseases, claiming that they can cure diseases without injections or medicine, just by dreaming."

Sometimes, some aspects of this world are too advanced, making Horn himself ignore that this is an era where civilization is in the early Renaissance.

He calmed himself down: "In that case, you shouldn't know whether this note is true or false. How can you be sure that this result is definitely correct?"

The newest and most complete novels are available on 69shuba.com!

"In order to verify the conjecture, I re-divined the results of this analysis." Istra said frankly, "It is correct, but it is also incomplete and needs to be supplemented by Scholar Kerr Ben himself."

Sitting behind his desk, Horn crossed his fingers and propped them against his lips, but his mind began to sort out his thoughts.

According to Istra's statement, their divination is a simulation of the future.

Let's take Kerr Ben's Mithril conversion method as an example.

What Istra deduced was just the situation that he would be researching the Mithril conversion method for the next ten years.

Is it possible that he would go and study something else during this period? Yes, but this possibility was ruled out by Istra.

The final result needs to be obtained through exhaustive decoding.

As the research results become more and more in-depth, the speed of decoding will also become faster and faster.

The final result is a two-way rush between research results and research progress.

Kerr Ben's special situation this time is that his foundation is too solid, and he only lacks time.

Since it was the first time combining a hand-cranked calculator and mathematics such as functions, Istra couldn't wait to face the future to verify it, which led to this result ten years later.

There is also a situation where, for example, a gun can replace a crossbow.

But their divination is to develop the crossbow to the extreme, but even if it is developed to the extreme, it is still not as high as the upper limit of a gun.

In simple terms, it is a skewed technology tree.

It is equivalent to a technology acceleration card. How much it adds depends on luck, and the side effect is that technology goes astray.

The heat in Horn's heart dissipated slightly, and he directly asked: "What price did you pay?"

"You are really perceptive." After being interrupted by Horn, Istra was silent for a few seconds before speaking, "For the first divination, we paid the lives of 9 astrologers.

For the second divination, the number of deaths was five times that, and I myself lay in bed for three months.

Fortunately, I am a witch, and my soul is much more resilient than theirs, so I survived."

"Will such a great price have to be paid in the future?"

"This time we divined a full ten years, so it won't be the case next time."

Horn nodded and put these notes aside: "You can't provide me with these for free, right? What do you want?"

"Your Excellency, why can't I just want to help our Holy Alliance win?"

"In that case..."

"But!" Istra coughed, "I heard that your Holy Machine Court has created a prototype machine called the Difference Engine?"
