Act 497. Thoughts on magic

It is conceivable that in the Great Void, there are actually countless similar spaces superimposed, and the space is filled with a large amount of magical power, and the concentration is extremely high.

However, in Reiner's hypothesis, magic is a kind of energy, and its possible carrier is a particle, and in the large cavity, this particle has a quantum effect, usually exists in the form of a probability cloud, and weak observation of it will not cause collapse in a short time, and the overall concentration of magic is evenly distributed and the value is low.

However, when the weak observation is carried out to a certain extent, the wave function will still collapse, and its collapse state is the state of high mana concentration.

Strong observation will disturb the magic in the large cavity, which will directly lead to collapse, and it is because of this difference that the crest can be observed.

In fact, at this point, Reiner also has some thoughts about the nature of magic.

He postulated a mana, which is a microscopic particle with a microscopic quantum effect, and the essence of magic is a torrent of energy composed of this particle, but the difference is that the wave function collapse of this particle is not only based on observation, but is affected by the consciousness of the mages.

This was not Reiner's whim, but his conclusion based on the magical research of the ancient Magic Empire.

In the ancient Magic Empire, before modern magic appeared, mages needed to meditate for a long time, using obscure runes to cast spells, and the source of the runes was summarized by the ancient schools of magic in the earlier antiquity.

To put it simply, runes don't really have meaning at first, but need to be combined with a special way of thinking to use magic, but vague and difficult to grasp thinking is not conducive to the recording and transmission of magic, so these mages designed a unique kind of writing, by associating words with imagery to record magic, which is the earliest runes.

Every mage needs to learn runes at the very beginning of learning magic, memorize the runes, so that they can start learning magic, in the process of building magic, complex runes are also the foundation, if you can't memorize these runes and the corresponding images, then it is difficult to successfully cast spells.

These are the conclusions that the mages reached when they were archaeological in the ruins, and they can basically be presumed to be facts.

Modern magic, on the other hand, further simplifies runes, and through the form of spell models, the runes that originally required complex combinations are transformed into simple geometric shapes, which naturally have the advantage of being easy to understand and cast, while the disadvantage is that there is no degree of freedom of runes.

Regardless of the construction method, in Reiner's view, it is a revision of the original combination of imagery and symbols, through strong hints, the combination of imagery and symbols, so that when the mages see or think of this symbol, they subconsciously carry out the same consciousness activities, and this special consciousness activity is the key to the effectiveness of magic.

In summary, the collapse of the magic force is based on human consciousness, and the more aware of the existence of the magic force, the greater the observation intensity, the wider the speed and scope of the collapse, and in the macro world, that is, the more magic power that can be used at its disposal, the faster the casting speed.

At the same time, the advancement process of a mage is a process of gradually becoming a strong observer who can realize and perceive the magic force from a weak observer who is difficult to realize and perceive the magic force.

The method of observation is through conscious activity, from a certain point of view, the magic force is a kind of idealistic particle, but in fact, Reiner believes that when the human brain is thinking, the synapses think by transmitting electrical signals, and the transmission of electric current will inevitably trigger an electromagnetic field, and perhaps the magic force is the elementary particle that can be affected by this special electromagnetic field.

Certain human thought processes trigger specific electromagnetic fields that affect the magic power and form the basis for the use of magic.

This also explains why some magical creatures can also drive magical power, because in the bodies of these creatures, there are also electrical signals that can interfere with magical power, and magical substances are substances that have been exposed to radiation for a long time and can produce subtle electromagnetic fields.

These are all thoughts that Reiner made after verifying the quantum theory, but it is extremely difficult to verify them.

But once they understood the cause of the strange phenomenon of the Great Hollow, the mages were a little less afraid of this mysterious realm, and a little more confident.

There are many ways to suppress the effects of high concentrations of mana on mages, and now that they know that continuous observation in the Great Cavern can trigger the collapse, mages can not worry about those strange accidents as long as they are prepared.

Immediately after the meeting, the mages began to work on targeted re-exploration.

Lord Alberton's detectors were equipped with a barrier against high concentrations of mana, which was enough to deal with the abnormal spikes in mana, and at the same time, the mages decided to use the method of three detectors to go deep at the same time, observing each other in order to see what was going on around them.

The High Mages flew to the wall, and Lord Alberton threw three golden balls, which, as soon as they left his palm, spread their wings as light as feathers, and flew around each other in the direction of the Great Hollow.

At the same time, around Lord Alberton, a triple projection appeared, and in each projection, two other probes could be seen.

The three detectors descended sharply, probing their surroundings, glowing in the deep, dark void.

In Lord Alberton's projection, there were also readings of the surrounding mana concentration and the depth of the dive, and as they got closer and closer to the boundary where the previous probe had been destroyed, all the mages focused their attention on the three projections.

"The border has been crossed."

Regens said that he saw that the mana readings remained at their original values, with no ups and downs.

But in the next moment, all the mages noticed that the originally ordinary number had suddenly become extremely high, and even exceeded the range!

This short moment was fleeting, but since the mages had already prepared themselves in advance and were concentrated, they naturally would not miss this detail.

I saw that around one of the detectors, countless black sludge-like substances condensed, this is a substance-like magic polymer, only beyond the limit of magic concentration, will give birth to such a black mud, the black mud touched the detector, if usually, only need such a light touch, all the magic elements will be destroyed in an instant, but because Lord Alberton has applied an extremely strong barrier to shield the magic in advance, therefore, this black mud-like magic polymer can only wrap the detector, and finally quickly disperse.

The whole process was only a moment, but it made the mages slightly surprised.

Because that's exactly what Reiner assumed!
