Chapter 192: Two Strange Characteristics
There are two ways to write the runes recorded by Lilith.
One is to use a special ancient stone tablet as a writing material, and the other is to use the magic of a magician to draw it.
Rosen naturally did not have an ancient stone tablet in his hand, so he could only take the second path.
He chose a basic rune with the simplest pattern, activated the alchemy magic, and began to build the rune's appearance in the air.
There was only one rune, and the structure was much simpler than invincible magic, but in half a second, Lawson successfully used magic to construct the rune.
"If the runes are written correctly, there will be a faint flash of light when the runes are drawn."
This is Lilith's introduction to runes.
Lawson looked at the air in front of him, it was where the magic power was to build runes, but where did the slightest light appear?
That is, Rosen failed to draw the runes.
"That's fuck it!"
Rosen picked up Lilith's manuscript and looked at it carefully, the runes on the manuscript were all hand-drawn sketches, only a rough shape, and there was no accuracy at all.
Moreover, Lilith also said that when the basic runes are drawn, the requirements for the shape are not strict, and only a kind of inexplicable spirituality is emphasized.
"Spirituality? Spirituality? I think it's feudal superstition! ”
Rosen felt that he was getting more and more depraved, dealing with this kind of inexplicable thing all day long, saying that magic is not like magic, talking about science, but this hellish thing is like an ancient Taoist priest drawing a talisman, and at a glance, it seems that there is no pattern at all.
If Rosen hadn't been sure that Lilith wouldn't fool him, he would have burned the broken paper by now.
After trying to calm down his almost madness, Rosen decided to try again.
He chose a new rune, activated the magic, and built the rune structure, which lasted for about half a second, and after about half a second, he suddenly felt a slight movement in his heart, and a feeling similar to inspiration appeared.
Almost at the same time, Rosen saw a faint white light appear in the air in front of him, and if he looked closely at the shape of the light, it was vaguely the magic rune he had just constructed.
Rosen was dumbfounded: "This is a success?" But why? ”
He gathered his spirit and tried his best to improve the level of refinement of the mana detection, and he looked at the microstructure of the mana runes very, very carefully.
Looking at it, the expression on Rosen's face became more and more strange, and finally turned into a stunned appearance, as if he had seen something incredible.
"Something out of nothing? How is this possible? Isn't the conservation of energy valid in this world? ”
On the earth, the law of conservation of energy is one of the most basic laws of nature, which can be called the cornerstone of the construction of the material world, even in this world, from Rosen to the present, all the physical phenomena observed are also in line with the law of conservation of energy.
However, just now, what Rosen observed using the magic of alchemy directly subverted this law.
"After the rune is activated, photons appear out of thin air from the void, and the total energy of the system increases greatly inexplicably, but I can't find the energy source."
"In the process, my magic didn't do anything, just built an inexplicable shape, although it also consumed some of the energy in my head, but this energy has nothing to do with the photons in the space in front of me."
"Why the hell is that?"
Lawson loosened his grip on the magic and clasped his hands over his forehead, feeling like his worldview was going to be turned upside down by this damn rune.
It took a while for Lawson to calm down a little, and he rubbed his face vigorously and began to verify the third rune.
"Damn, the energy of the system has increased out of thin air again!" He cursed under his breath, not knowing whether to scold himself or the unexplained phenomenon.
He went on to verify that the fourth, fifth, and sixth had all the runes built with magic.
"21 basic runes, 17 are valid, 4 are not reacting, every time there is energy out of thin air, this is not true, it must be me who is wrong, yes, it must be wrong, maybe it's a measurement error!"
Rather than questioning the law of conservation of energy, Rosen believes that he is more likely to make mistakes, and the biggest reason for his mistakes may be his lack of understanding of runes.
Thinking of this, Rosen took Lilith's manuscript.
"Runic magic is a gift from the gods, and it is very different from ordinary magic. Its most striking feature is that when used correctly, it can generate a constant stream of magical energy without the need for any casting materials. ”
Seeing this, Rosen's whole person was messy again.
"You don't need to cast spell materials, just draw runes, and you can cast spells, isn't this another expression of making something out of nothing?"
He didn't believe in evil and continued to look down.
"Runic literature, for all its incredible virtues, is also flawed. Its biggest flaw is instability. Sometimes the same magician, the same spell casting, will take effect immediately, sometimes it will take a while, and other times, there will be no response at all. Many magicians believe that it is precisely because it is a gift from the gods, a gift, that there is such an unexplained instability that mortals cannot understand the intentions of the gods. ”
These words made Rosen feel more and more speechless.
"I'll verify the instability."
With a movement in his heart, he activated his magic again and reconstructed the basic runes.
This time, of the 21 basic runes, 17 are still valid, and 4 are unresponsive, but the unexplainable things are not the same as before. But God knows, Rosen's methods have not changed at all.
Rosen doesn't believe in evil and tries again.
This time, 21 runes, 13 are active, and 8 are invalid.
Try again.
19 are in force and 2 are invalid.
Try again
After trying more than 20 times in a row, each time, Lawson got different results, and there was no statistical pattern at all. His entire worldview was subverted, and the whole person sat at the table
"On Earth, God throws dice, but there is still quantum mechanics to describe probability. This god of the other world, but he doesn't even throw the dice, he just does what he wants, this is really a willful guy! ”
After sitting in a daze for a long time, Rosen once again lifted his spirits, and the manuscript was written.
"A simple rune magic glow. The 1st, 7th, and 16th runes are combined in equilateral triangles, and if you're lucky, the gods will light a lamp for you. If you're unlucky, click it a few more times and it will always light up. ”
Lawson immediately began to 'light the lights'.
The first time, it didn't light up; The second time, it still didn't light up; The third time, the fourth time, and the 15th time, there was a sudden 'snort' in the air, and a white ball of light the size of a thumb appeared in the air out of thin air.
This ball of light looks like a ball of pure light, the light is bright and stable, about the same as the brightness of a 100-watt incandescent lamp, and if used at night, it is many times better than ordinary candlelight.
But Rosen didn't pay attention to the ball of light at all, he focused on the massive number of photons that poured out of thin air from the ball of light.
If activating a single rune is just a little more photon, then this glow technique can already directly observe the phenomenon of energy non-conservation with the naked eye.
At this point, Lawson was completely numb, his brain was woodenly maintaining the runic structure of the glow technique, and the ball of light had always been stable, it was like the eyes of the gods, condescending to look at Lawson, laughing at the meager wisdom that belonged to mortals in his mind.
Up to this point, runes have two strange characteristics: first, energy is created out of nothing; Second, completely unpredictable instability.
Both of these traits are unusually fucked!
"Is this really a chaotic magical world?"
"Am I wrong?"
"But in that case, why are the elements of this world the same as the earth? Why is it that the world can also synthesize penicillin, gunpowder, guns, chemical batteries, and incandescent lamps? ”
"Can anyone tell me why this horrible scene is happening?!"
Rosen covered his head with his hands and stared straight at the line of basic runes on the manuscript, but he couldn't think of a reasonable explanation.
Just watching, watching, I don't know how long it took, Rosen's heart suddenly moved slightly, and a very vague and very strange thought sprung up.
"No, these runes are not quite right, it seems that there is something wrong with these basic runes, maybe they may not be the real foundation. If I'm right, maybe I can solve the problem of instability. ”
