Marsha had expected to see some less formulaic spells.

After all, the book looks old, and it was probably written before the highly formulaic modern magic system was perfected.

It turned out that it wasn't.

Come to think of it, this ship is usually full of scientists, or Frankenstein, who can only use highly programmed and formulaic modern magic, which is the only thing in the books that makes sense.

- That's just right for me.

- After all, I don't know anything about occult theories.

- Give me the kind of magic I need to be based on theory, and I probably won't be able to learn it yet.

Masha decisively flipped to the "far-sighted technique" that he glanced at from the catalog page.

According to the explanation, although this is called a long-distance sight technique, it actually forms a "viewpoint" controlled by the caster, which can be as far away as 50 kilometers from the caster.

However, there must be an unobstructed straight connection between the caster and the viewpoint.

Masha has played a lot of Western fantasy games, and he makes an analogy to the spells in Western fantasy: a limited, distance-increasing, and disembodied mage's eye?

- It feels okay, but it doesn't improve my moments much.

Marsha decided to look at the other spells he had his eye on.

"Listening to the wind" can obtain information from a distance from the moving air.

The moment Masha saw the general description behind the name of the spell, he couldn't help but shout: "This is it!" That's what I want to get information! ”

Marsha's gaze shifted from a general description to a detailed description:

"It's not a divination spell, so it won't be affected by anti-divination. The underlying principle is to extract information that flows with the "concept" of wind.

"The extracted information has long been transformed into an informational state, so the only way to extract it is to make it collapse back into reality."

Masha stopped to read.

- What the hell, how do I feel like I don't understand?

- Information state? Reality? Collapse?

- Words are really fashionable, is this really a word that an old mage who has been doing for many years would use?

Masha identified the person who wrote this book as an old mage with strong mana.

- Forget it, don't care if you understand it or not, read it first.

Marsha: Look at the next paragraph.

"The essence of this spell is to use the concept of wind as a springboard to extract information directly from the principles of the world, so it is extremely easy for people to fall into madness......"

This passage is slightly enlightening to Marsha.

He read it twice again, and summed it up in his own words: Anyway, this spell is awesome Glass, and anti-divination can't interfere, but it's very easy to go crazy when you use it.

What other information state reality, don't care!

- The principle is none of my business, I just need to know the effects and side effects!

- I thought I was a computer idiot who could only double-click on the icon, and I went to the Internet café to open the machine and just play, and I called the network manager if I had nothing to do.

- Yes, it's so pleasant!

Masha skimmed over the rest of the discussion and skipped to the section on how to use the spell.

"This spell is highly dangerous, and its creator has disappeared during experiments to improve it. Efforts to stylize it stopped, as it was an original spell that the creator had passed away without having time to leave detailed information, and it was too dangerous for others to improve the spell.

Subsequently, the World Mage Congress decided to list it as a forbidden art.

"But, clever I've done what this mage can't do!"

- Huh?

Masha frowned again.

- What does this mean, isn't the person who wrote this book a mage?

Masha flipped to the title page of the book and looked for the author's signature.

He found it.

Wolfgang Pauli.

- Groove.

Masha certainly couldn't read Pauli's papers, but that didn't prevent Masha from pretending to brag on various occasions using Pauli's name.

Think about it, everyone else is pretending to be "Planck's constant" and "Schrödinger's cat", and you suddenly take out Wolfgang Pauli, others may not have heard of it, and suddenly the distance on the forced grid is widened.

Pauli famously said, "Your paper doesn't even have falsifiability", which sounds particularly awesome, although Masha doesn't know why a paper is not falsifiable and seems to be relatively low, but this sentence is particularly imposing.

After seeing the author's name, Masha had a different feeling about this book, just now he thought it was an instruction manual for each navigator or something, but now it seems to be the work of a master.

No need to ask, Pauli must also be a big scientist, whether it is a master or not, but the level will not be low anyway.

It seems that this is a collection of nautical-related spells left by great scientists.

It makes sense that such a book would appear in the chart room of a legendary ship like the Nautilus—no, the Enterprise.

Masha turned back to the spell page, ready to learn the wind technique.

The book reads: "After my improvements, it has been successfully stylized and can be activated by pure spellcasting and spells, just like using life spells."

"If you have Revenant Chrysanthemum Extract and Electric Rat's Electrical Tendon as casting materials, the effect of the spell will be enhanced several times over—but the corresponding risk of madness will also be an infinite number of times greater.

"In general, it is not recommended to use spellcasting materials.

"Note that this spell can only obtain fragmentary information, because the information will quickly escape into the vast ocean of the world after returning to the information state, and this spell can extract only fragments of it.

"Also, the mana cost of this spell is unusually large.

"If you're all set, then, follow these steps......"

The content of the unraveling made Masha frown.

- How does this spell casting action feel more complicated than the ninja seal in Naruto?

- Is this a finger dance? At Pauli's time, there was Douyin?

Masha stared at the rough schematic diagram for a long time before he could barely figure out how to do this set of spell casting moves.

In contrast, the spell is simple: "Speak to me, O wind."

Masha put down the book and made his first attempt unusually uncertain.

Nothing happened.

- Probably because I did the wrong finger dance.

- Why do you have to design such complex spellcasting actions? It can't be simpler, for example, to deal with the past with a "heart".

- Shouldn't modern spells be as simple as they can be cast?

Masha tried the finger dance several more times, no, tried to cast the spell, but failed.

INTERVIEWER Is it because there is no music?

Although reason told Masha that it had nothing to do with music, but now Masha is a little sick and rushes to the doctor, and there is no loss in trying anyway, right?

So Masha found a song from the Douyin Divine Comedy he knew, and cast a spell while humming -

When he had finished his movements, he shouted, "Speak to me, O wind!" ”

Still nothing happened.

- I just said it wouldn't be that simple......

- Huh?

Masha had a sudden inspiration.

Then he looked down at the book in his hand.

- This book is written in English!

- And I habitually read it in Chinese!

——My English comprehension is not my original ability, it is acquired after inserting implants, I feel like I am reading Chinese when I look at English, and my thinking is all in Chinese, so I completely ignore this point!

- Why am I so stupid!

Masha thumped his head a few times to calm down and try again.

He carefully finished all the gestures, and then shouted in English: "Speak to me, O wind!" ”

As soon as he said it, he felt as if his brain had suddenly been squeezed by a huge hand through his skull.

He slammed to the ground and retched.

And he couldn't even sense that he was retching.

His mind was filled with all kinds of "noise", and even his ability to think stagnated.

No, it's not completely stagnant yet.

Masha struggled to analyze the current situation.

- This ...... Is this a spell draining my magic?

- No, it's just a magic drain, it won't be so strong...... I've experienced it before.

- That's ...... Is it mana overload?

- Or is it the dual effect of an overload of mana and a side effect of this spell that has caused my protection of the principles of the world to become negative?

Thinking is getting harder and harder.

- Yes, find a way......

This was Martha's last thought.

Then his ego is completely incapacitated, and only his self remains.

Instinctively, he grasped the last straw.

It wasn't a choice he made intellectually and logically, it was just an instinctive grasp of a seemingly possible way to save himself.

Rather, if he still had even a shred of sanity, if he could still think logically, he would not choose this method.

Driven by instinct, he shouted: "I declare: only what I know is reality!" ”

This manifesto is activated only when the manifesto is heard by a self-conscious object other than the person who made the declaration.

Now there is no such person on the Enterprise at all, and the declaration cannot be useful.

Logically, it can't be useful.

But Marsha's mind suddenly became empty.

The noisy thoughts vanished in an instant.

Masha lay on the ground with his head empty, and he slowed down like a dog for a while before he regained his ability to think.

- What's going on?

- I just made a manifesto, driven by my subconscious?

- But...... How does this work?

Masha stood up and looked down to check if there was anything unusual in his body.

In the process, he found that his perceptual abilities seemed to be expanded.

He looked up at the vents in the chart room.

He could sense the inside of the vents, and just a few minutes ago a mechanical spider-like thing had passed through it, and it had removed all the dust from the vents.

Immediately afterward, his perception expanded along the ventilation ducts, eventually entering a cabin with a large blower.

- This is the ship's central air-conditioned room.

- That's right, I started listening to the wind.

- So what I just denied in my declaration was not the Listening to the Wind Technique, because I already knew and understood this spell!

- Then why do I ...... Have I denied the bad influence of the principles of the world on me?

Marsha's mouth was wide open.

Suddenly, he understood.

Enlightenment.

- Rifle said that if there really were a submarine that could infiltrate the interior of the world, there would be only all kinds of monsters left on the boat.

- But there's no monster here.

This is because the ability of an observer can be used to negate the influence of the principles of the world!

Masha frowned slightly—no, if this were the case, my school would be too strong, and I would have killed all sides a long time ago, and the Enterprise would have become the most wanted submarine.

- Unless the person who founded the school was overly cautious.

"This Taidou is obviously super strong but overly cautious"?

- No, no, no, it shouldn't be. It is reasonable to speculate that this ability can only weaken the influence of the principles of the world.

- The guy I found in the observation room is probably also a senior of the same school as me, and he used this ability to resist madness, and he went crazy.

- If the above speculation is true, then it is logical to draw a new speculation.

Masha looked up at the chandelier in the chart room.

He said out loud, "Enterprise, you're actually self-aware, aren't you?" ”

- That's right! The manifesto needs a self-conscious object to listen to, and if the people on board the ship are all such a person, then there is no manifesto!

- You can't resist the reason of the world without a declaration.

- And then the ship will be full of monsters!

- So, Enterprise must be a self-aware ship! It can be used as an object to testify to the manifesto!

Masha simply wanted to applaud his string of "reasoning".

However, no one responded to Marsha's question.

No one responded to the question, and Marsha's reasoning was just reasoning and could not be confirmed.

- What to do?

- If I plan my future actions based on this reasoning, if it is fake, I don't know how to die.

Masha was in trouble.

"Could it be that although it is self-aware, it can only be equivalent to a dog?"

The moment Masha thought this, the iron plate above his head suddenly fell off and smashed firmly on his head.

Masha fell to the ground, head in his hands.

But he was in ecstasy: "There is a response!" My reasoning was right! The ship itself can be a witness to the manifesto! ”

- Great!

- It's an implant, that is, it's supposed to be with me at all times.

- So, I don't need a cat or a dog to follow me, I can just declare it!

- Wait, then why do the seniors talk about using cats and dogs for experiments in the ability description?

INTERVIEWER Could it be that the implant of my school is not necessarily the Enterprise?

INTERVIEWER What other forms of implants are there?

At this time, a mechanical spider opened the door in the corner of the wall and came out, picked up the iron plate that had just fallen, jumped to the ceiling lightly, and began to reinstall the iron plate.

It looks like it's these little guys who are usually maintaining the ship.

- Enterprise, is it a unique gift?

Marsha decided to ask the Enterprise directly.

"Hey, other people's implants, aren't they the same as you?"

No response.

- Am I being too rude?

Marsha cleared his throat, stood up straight, tucked his abdomen and chest, and then asked politely: "Excuse me, dear Miss or Mr. Ship Soul, are the other apprentice-level implants the same as mine, a handsome and powerful ship?" ”

Masha is not only polite, but also patted on the back!

However, there was still no response.

- Tsk, forget it, I'll slowly find the answer later.

Masha turned her attention back to herself.

- Well, the magic power is completely empty, and there is no return to the mana, which means that the wind listening technique has exhausted my blue and squeezed back to the blue. With this on, I can't use any other spells.

- Sure enough, this is a super advanced spell, and as long as a second-year elementary school person like me uses it, he will definitely die on the spot.

- Even I, judging from what has just happened, it is extremely dangerous to use this spell.

- You must declare it before you can use this spell.

- When I have cultivated my magic power, maybe I can use it without declaring it, and then use my innate high resistance to resist the principles of the world.

- Huh?

Masha suddenly realized something.

- I can increase my mana by using this spell over and over again to drain my mana!

According to Rifle, in this world, mana is similar to building muscles, and if you maintain a high level of use, the amount of mana will continue to expand, and once the frequency of use decreases, the total amount of mana will shrink.

And Masha is now only at the level of the second grade of elementary school, and he can do it with this spell.

But because the total amount is small, as long as he stops the spell, the mana will quickly refill.

Therefore, he can use this wind listening technique repeatedly in a short period of time to quickly improve his magic power!

Masha said just do it, canceled the wind listening technique, found a chair to sit down, and began to wait for the return of the demon.

**

While Ma Sha and Du Meilan were "sleeping sweetly", Xiao Ruhe, Chen Guangda's adjutant and the de facto second-in-command of the main hall, entered Chen Guangda's office with a report.

"The Psychological Spell Department has evaluated Ge Huaiguang's intelligence in the last six months, and believes that he was probably hit by a psychic spell in February this year."

Chen Guangda raised his head and stared at Xiao Ruhe with a frown: "How did you get it?" Although their family is a businessman family, it is also a wealthy family, so they should not give people this kind of opportunity. ”

As he spoke, Chen Guangda took the report handed over by Xiao Ruhe and began to read it.

Xiao Ruhe: "Also, Gonggong Song has already arrived at the VIP reception room. ”

Chen Guangda's face showed a blatant disgust.

This is not common.

"These eunuchs are as nasty as flies."

"However, when it comes to the level of the prefect, it is almost inevitable that the Factory and Health Bureau will be dispatched."

Although the Dahua Empire started the process of modernization and innovation a hundred years ago, it still retains many ancient institutions today.

For example, the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, such as the eunuch, such as the factory health bureau.

Chen Guangda's face was full of helplessness, he put down the report of the psychology department and stood up, and said to Xiao Ruhe: "I will deal with my father-in-law, and you will continue to supervise all the work." ”

Xiao Ruhe nodded silently, and then watched Chen Guangda leave the room.

- Very good, so that Chen Guangda will not be able to leave for the time being.

Xiao Ruhe thought with satisfaction.

- Everything is as planned.

- Chen Guangda, you want me to think carefully about why you are the deputy commander, the captain, I am just a first-class agent, just your adjutant.

- Actually, I know the answer very well, better than you.

- Because it's inconspicuous, it's the best disguise for lurking.
