Chapter 13: The Precursors
"Wizard?"
Melinda asked with some uncertainty, "Mr. Mevis, you said you were a wizard?" ”
"That's right." Patch nodded, then wondered, "Ms. May, is there anything wrong with this?" ”
"It's the kind of wizard in the novels or movies who can use magic?" Coulson on the side couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, it's just that there are some differences between us wizards and those magicians." Patch nodded again and explained clearly.
Once again, Coulson and Melinda couldn't help but glance at each other. What's wrong with that? That's a big deal, Coulson thought to himself.
One can imagine what a big impact it would be on the current technological world if something as mysterious as magic was confirmed. This kind of thing that cannot be explained by common sense, before this, Coulson had always thought that it was a fairy tale or a fiction in a movie novel.
But after seeing Patch's demonstration, Coulson couldn't find any reason to explain the source of Patch's ability, which might be, as Patch said, the power of magic.
"My God......"
Coulson stroked his forehead and shouted, then looked at Patch and said, "Mr. Myvis, I don't think I really should have come to visit you today, after listening to your words, I feel that my whole worldview has completely collapsed." ”
"Coulson, while magic is possible, science also has its importance, and it's still the age of technology, isn't it?" Melinda seemed to see Coulson's distress, patted him on the shoulder, and said aloud.
"And ......"
As soon as her voice changed, Melinda suddenly turned her head to look at Patch, frowned and asked, "Mr. Myvis, don't you think your statements are too vague?" Despite your unparalleled power, I have deep doubts about the reality of magic. ”
"Ms. Mei, you don't seem to believe my claims from the beginning."
Staring at Melinda, Patch suddenly smiled mysteriously and continued: "It's just that yes, with your shallow knowledge, it is indeed a bit difficult to understand the mystery of heaven and earth and even the universe. ”
"But the power of magic is completely opposite to today's technology." Melinda asked again.
"Ms. May, and Mr. Coulson."
Calling out Melinda and Coulson, Patch began to speak solemnly, "I think your ideas have been wrong from the beginning. ”
After a moment's thought, Patch continued, "Maybe I should explain it to you in a more intuitive way. ”
"You come with me."
As he spoke, Patch put his hands on the edge of his desk, stood up, and slowly walked to the large floor-to-ceiling mirror in the room.
"Mr. Mevis, be careful......"
Seeing that Patch was about to hit the floor mirror, Coulson hurriedly reminded him, but then a scene appeared in his eyes, making him swallow the next words stiffly.
I saw Patch rush headlong towards the floor-to-ceiling mirror, as if there was no hindrance, and there were ripples on the mirror, and Patch disappeared without a trace.
Coulson and Melinda's eyes widened in disbelief, their faces filled with shock.
Since entering this hut, everything seems to be so strange, and they have been stirred up countless times, and it is really difficult for them to have any other expression than shock.
After a while, Coulson came to his senses and asked Melinda, "May, should we go in?" ”
Melinda looked down and thought for a moment, then finally nodded, "Let's go in!" I wonder how Mr. Myvis will explain to us the existence of magic. ”
With that, Melinda and Coulson walked towards the floor-to-ceiling mirror together.
As their bodies crossed the mirror, they both felt a slight barrier, but when they saw the next scene, they had no time to think about other things.
Shock! Absolutely shocking!
What appeared to Coulson and Melinda was an incomparably vast cosmic void, surrounded by night, and boundless stars seemed to shine in their hands, ready to pick.
The two of them stared at all this with wide eyes, as if they were stunned.
"Ms. May, Mr. Coulson."
A greeting sounded in their ears, and the two of them instantly came back to their senses and turned their heads together.
"Mr. Meyvis......"
I saw Pache in black robes walking slowly towards them in the dark void.
"Mr. Mevis, can you tell me what this place is?" When Patch approached, Coulson hurriedly asked.
"This is outside the earth, a space realm that belongs to me, and that mirror is the starry sky gate that marks the location of this space."
Beyond Earth? Space field? Starry Sky Gate?
After hearing Patch's answer, Coulson and Melinda couldn't help but look down to see a blue planet at their feet.
"This ...... How is this possible? Coulson looked at Patch in disbelief and asked again, "Is this the cosmic vacuum beyond Earth?" Isn't there no oxygen in a vacuum? Then we ......"
"That's the greatness of magic!" Before Coulson could finish speaking, Patch preemptively answered.
Smiling at Coulson and Melinda, Patch said slowly, "Although the power and magic I use are different, in the end, the goal is the same. ”
"The power of heaven and earth and even the universe is so huge that we can't imagine it, and we wizards need to absorb this great power to strengthen ourselves or borrow this power, so as to grasp the mysteries of the universe at a deeper level, and finally achieve qualitative changes in life forms."
"And that power is magic!"
"As for this, I used my magic to carve out an area."
As he spoke, Patch suddenly turned his head to look at Melinda: "Ms. May......"
"What's wrong? Mr. Mevis. Melinda, who was stunned by Patch's words, hurriedly looked at Patch after hearing her name.
"Ms. Mei, you came here to see this, and now you believe in the existence of magic?"
Convinced?
Melinda couldn't help but be in a trance, a tangled expression appeared on her face, don't believe it? Unfortunately, she couldn't find any reason to contradict Patch. Believe? That means that she has to abandon all her previous ideas and completely subvert her worldview.
"Ms. Mei, in fact, you don't need to worry about it at all."
Just when Melinda was extremely conflicted, Patch's voice rang out again.
"Actually, there is not much difference between magic and science in essence. Isn't science also borrowing the power of external things from nature to strengthen itself? If I had to say that there are differences, then I can only say that science is about achieving the strength of the group, and magic is ......"
"It's to realize the strength of the individual!"
"It's just that magic is a few steps ahead of science......"
