Act 488. Observer
"Shooting ability?"
Field looked at two detectors, one of which had a large photoreceptor that could capture the surrounding scene as much as possible and transmit it to the ground, most of these detectors were used for ecological exploration, and some mages even attached it to the bodies of certain large creatures to observe their behavior.
The other detector is relatively simpler, almost a square metal box, this detector has no photosensitive elements, can only explore the surroundings through its own sensors, correspondingly, its sensitivity is also much higher, and it can detect many indicators synchronously, this detector is mostly used to explore some extremely harsh environments, such as lava or deep sea, where there is a lack of light.
"Wait, Lord Ian Gray, I don't understand what you mean."
Broly, whose hair covered half of his eyes, said aloud.
"If I'm not mistaken, do you think it's the probe's ability to shoot that caused this crest?"
Hearing Broly's question, Lord Braggs pondered, and he looked at Reiner to see what the youngest High Mage in history had to say.
"When the detectors with the sensor were detecting, the mages were in the outpost, using these detectors to observe through monitoring magic, and then there was a sudden increase in the concentration of mana, while the detector without the sensor only had data back, and did not observe the same phenomenon."
There's nothing unconfident, Reiner explained.
"First of all, we need to assume that there is a correlation between the destruction of the detector and the increase in the concentration of mana, that is, it is the emergence of this phenomenon that leads to the destruction of the detector, and every time the detector is destroyed, this phenomenon must occur."
Reiner's words are a bit of a twist, but he is actually making a hypothesis that detectors that don't detect crests in the detection image are also experiencing the same phenomenon, but they don't identify it.
"Indeed, by simplifying the problem, it is possible to come to such a conclusion."
His Excellency Calvados bowed slightly, looking at the young man slightly.
"Based on this premise, I made an assumption based on the observation that only a detector with a sensor could detect this phenomenon of rising magic concentration."
"You mean that this phenomenon is only detected by probes when it is observed by humans?"
Lord Alberton frowned slightly, and he could easily deduce such a conclusion from Reiner's statement.
That is, this phenomenon will only be specific and detectable when it is observed by humans, and when humans cannot directly visualize, this phenomenon will also occur, but it cannot be detected by machines.
"That's what I'm thinking at the moment, because that would explain why there is such a difference."
Reiner nodded.
"It's an interesting idea, Ian Gray."
Lord Braggs mused, he didn't refute Reiner's claim, but he didn't agree with it either, he seemed to be thinking, pondering the meaning behind Reiner's guess.
"Are you trying to say that our artificial observations will cause the Great Void to change and make it different?"
"Yes, Lord Pragues."
Reiner looked directly into the other's eyes, and Lord Braggs's deep purple eyes seemed to contain a universe, clear and deep.
"That's a crazy guess."
Augustine shook his head, he obviously could not accept such an explanation.
"If human observation can lead to a change in a phenomenon, which means that an object is the most essential appearance only when we are not observing it, and once it is observed, it causes the object to change, then how can we be sure that what we see is real and not changed after observation?"
His question was also on the minds of the mages present after hearing Reiner's conjecture.
In classical magical theory, the observation itself should have no effect on the target, but in fact, even the act of measuring should not have any effect on the target, because if it does, the observation will be meaningless, because after the observation, the object will change and will no longer be the way it was.
In fact, observation is the foundation of all magic, and if the values of observation and measurement are no longer real, then all magic systems will collapse, magic will cease to exist, and even objective reality will be challenged.
This is unacceptable to all mages.
But there is some truth to Reiner's speculation, and if we accept that the observation will lead to different phenomena, then the problem of the effect of the large void on the detector will be solved.
But once this conclusion is accepted, more problems will arise, and it is a problem that directly challenges the foundation of people's cognition, and the high-level mages present cannot draw conclusions at will.
"This big hole is very weird, and we need more research before we can explore more."
Seeing that he could not reach a conclusion for a while, Lord Braggs declared the meeting closed, after all, there was no way to test Reiner's conjecture by mere discussion.
As the group left the room, Lord Alberton stopped Reiner before he could leave.
"Reiner, do you really think your guess is going to be the truth of the matter?"
Lord Alberton knew that sometimes assumptions had to be bold and beyond imagination, but the process of verification had to be extremely careful, so he confirmed to Reiner that the young High Mage was always able to have ideas that were incomprehensible to ordinary people, and many times, such assumptions were proven to be correct.
"I'm not sure, but Lord Alberton, don't you have the same depressing feeling when you look at the images of the probe, as if the empty space is filled with some kind of object that we cannot observe, and only the prototype appears in the gap between our minds."
Reiner asked, looking into Lord Alberton's eyes and not flinching.
"Indeed, I have a similar feeling, that void contains too many weirdness."
Lord Alberton nodded in agreement, and then said.
"Do you have any ideas for this conjecture that have been experimentally verified?"
In fact, if observation can affect matter, then even if there is experimental verification, mages need to observe it to determine the results of the experiment, and this is a behavior that affects matter. Alberton also struggled to think of a reasonable solution in a short period of time.
"I, well, I need a little more time to think."
Reiner said, but there were thoughts in his mind.
