Chapter 468: An even more terrifying beast
Gawain didn't expect Rebecca to prepare a second project for this experiment, but after hearing the other party's words "random selection", he immediately vaguely guessed the girl's thoughts.
"I'd like to test it more accurately and see how the Psychic Seal works," Rebecca explained her thoughts, pointing to the devices that the researchers were installing on the bench, "It's a modified rune trigger - it has a rotating disc with teeth in it, and when the button is pressed, the disc comes into contact with a small platform, and only when the teeth on the disc are turned into the right position will the correct magic loop be established between the teeth and the platform - the whole device is closed, In other words, the person who presses the button has no idea what will happen to his operation, and his mental choice is limited to whether or not the button is pressed, not whether the system is activated......"
Amber looked at Rebecca with her mouth wide open, she finally understood something, and she exclaimed, "You guys doing research...... How do you grow your brain?! β
Gawain was also attracted by the process designed by Rebecca, which itself did not exceed his imagination, but the roe deer girl's idea was as surprising as ever, he touched his chin and said while thinking: "The rotating tooth disc is actually a pseudo-random system, but the focus of this system is not randomness, but the ...... of the tester"
"Yes, it's up to the subject to 'don't know the result,'" Rebecca nodded, "I wonder if the Psychic Seal works when the subject doesn't know if he's going to rebel against the gods, or if it causes the Seal to ...... as long as the subject has doubts about their own beliefs."
Pittman, who had never spoken, was also intrigued by this subtle "random selection" experiment at the moment, and the old druid, who had never been in shape, also showed the researcher's expression of interest and serious anticipation on his face, and he pinched the beard of his chin while circling around the experimental table, and nodded as he turned: "Ingenious...... Artful...... In this way, there should only be three different results, the first is that the Holy Light substrate in the inverter array system can be activated, while the substrate that is directly powered by the tester will not be activated, the second is that both substrates are activated, and the third is that neither substrate is activated - corresponding to the three situations in which the Psychic Seal is in effect in the case of random selection, the Psychic Seal is invalid, and the teeth are not connected. β
Amber thought about it, and even a question popped up: "What if the substrate directly powered by the tester is activated, but the substrate connected to the inverter array is not?" β
The laboratory fell silent all of a sudden, and several eyes fell on Amber at the same time, making Miss Half-Elf subconsciously shrink her neck, and Pitman stroked her beard fiercely, and was silent for a long time before saying, "That means that we have all been tricked by the God of Light!" β
"Let's get started," Gawain took a long breath and nodded slightly to Cohen Bell at the lab table, "make a random choice." β
The young researcher bowed solemnly, then adjusted his breathing and turned in the direction of the bench.
All the unrelated personnel stepped aside and kept a close eye on the table, while Cohen Bell placed his finger on the large, modified "rune trigger" that looked like a rectangular tin box, silently counting the beats in his mind before injecting magic into the bronze button and pressing down hard.
There was a clicking sound from the "Random Selection" device, and after a few moments, both rune substrates on the bench were unresponsive.
Kamel stepped forward to inspect the device, and then announced the results: "First test, invalid connection, start second test." β
Cohen Bell injected magic into the rune trigger again, then pressed the button.
In a moment of suffocating waiting, in full view of everyone, the two rune substrates on the experimental table lit up at the same time, and a steady holy light was generated!
Several inhalations rang out in the lab, and after Kamel stepped forward and confirmed that everything was in order for the experimental device, the ancient magister announced the results in a slightly trembling voice: "Second test, the sample is all bright!" β
Gawain suppressed his agitation and ordered in as calm a tone as possible: "Take the third test." β
ββ¦β¦ In the third test, the sample was fully bright! β
ββ¦β¦ The fourth test, invalid connection ......"
ββ¦β¦ The fifth test, the sample is all bright!! β
The young mage Cohen activated the rune trigger in front of him again and again, his eyes lit up, as if immersed in some kind of inexplicable euphoria, until the two rune substrates used for the test were in a state of waste energy overload, and he stopped at Kamel's orders.
There was silence in the laboratory, only the low hum of the various magic devices and the laboratory's defense system echoing in the air as if it were solidified, and Kamel floated silently in front of the test table, looking at the two rune substrates that were fading, and for a long time, he looked up, and the two bits of light embedded in the arcane cloud flickered, slowly sweeping the room.
He seemed to see what this place used to be, he saw the insignia of the Gondor Empire hanging on the walls, he saw the energy pipes in the laboratory rise and fall, he saw his colleagues in the robes of the Imperial mages standing in front of the experimental tables, and those people turned their heads, and they smiled and congratulated the place.
Kamel raised his hands, his voice echoing throughout the lab: "Rejoice, rebels!" We've opened another door! β
Cheers literally came from all directions, and the old scene in Kamal's eyes shattered, and he saw that the familiar laboratory was laid with a hive-like modern magic net, and standing around were researchers in short white robes, blurred faces faded from his vision, and the new faces became clearer in his vision.
Kamel looked at Gawain, "I'm sorry, lord, I'm a little out of shape. β
"It's okay, it's a gaffe," Gawain didn't hesitate to praise himself, looking approvingly at every researcher here, "every one of you is goodβwe should celebrate, we just broke through God's authority!" We have proved with facts that even the so-called 'magic arts' can be explained and controlled by logic and technology! β
Wright stood silently and watched as the smartest group of people in the land completed the experimentβno thrilling sights, no crowds, just a dozen researchers, a few witnesses, and two small balls of light on the experimental table, and yet in these seemingly ordinary two hours, what happened here was no less significant than any war in the past history that mankind had started in the name of God!
It was indeed a war, without swords and blood, but it meant the first successful rebellion of mortals against the gods.
"Now we can confirm that the Psychic Seal is affected by 'self-knowledge'," Carmel said as he left the bench and walked to Gawain, "In the case of random selection, the subject is not sure what the results of his actions will be, so even if he knows that his actions may be 'disobedient', the Psychic Seal does not take effect, and we have also proved through the first experiments that even if the Psychic Seal is in effect, the magic device that operates on a purely mechanical principle is not affected by it." Pulling the trigger' is mentally involved, and it does trigger a stamp, but the effect of the stamps can be isolated by technical means......"
At this time, Pitman walked over from the side, the little old man was still holding his increasingly thinning beard, with a thoughtful look on his face: "Actually, what I'm most curious about is another point: the Psychic Steel Seal should be applied to the tester himself, but after the tester injected magic into the rune substrate, how did the magic that had already left the tester dissipate out of thin air?" Could it be that the magic that has been detached from the human body still has a 'mind' remaining? They feel that they shouldn't exist, so they disintegrate? β
Listening to Pittman's words, Kamal couldn't help but nod slightly: This is indeed a confusing phenomenon, it is understandable that the subject himself is unable to release the magic due to the influence of the Mind Seal, but when the test person releases the magic through the experimental device, the magic power has to be separated from the body and enter another system to run, in other words, when using the experimental device, the "magic operation" is a fact that has already happened, this fact has happened...... But it dissipated out of thin air because of the subject's own psychic seal, why is that?
Looking at Kamel and Pittman, who were confused and thinking, Gawain's mind was racing, this was the first time he felt that his brain power was a little unable to keep up with the local knowledge of this world - the phenomenon of the Psychic Seal did remind him of the observer effect, because the characteristic of "the established facts that have happened are rewritten by the observer" made him can't help but think so, but the effect of the Psychic Seal is not exactly the same as the "observer effect" he knows, Not only does it take place in the macrocosm, but it also embodies a higher idealism: the tester's perception of his own behavior is actually the first condition for determining whether the phenomenon occurs or not!?
This world ...... There's so much to be found.
And the differences between the two worlds are not limited to these: everything related to quantum theory on Earth caused a violent upheaval in the scientific community at the beginning of its existence, and researchers were tormented by this terrible phenomenon, and in this world, they were ......
Kamal and Pittman were just confused by the phenomenon, and their minds didn't seem to be affected at all.
The reason is very simple: in the field of magic, there are too many things that go against common sense, and this world has not yet established that rock-solid "magic edifice", and researchers still don't know the terrible ...... of the complete subversion of the three views
Gawain looked away from the two researchers, and sighed slightly in his heart: Perhaps, another beast was released by him, this beast ...... Maybe it's even more terrifying than "transcendent power to mortals......
His thoughts gradually dispersed, from the magic that seemed to be dissipated by the influence of the observer, to the steel seal of the mind that seemed to be the lock of his mind, from the nature of the gods, to the connection between man and God, his thoughts drifted farther and farther away, until a voice suddenly sounded in his head:
ββ¦β¦ I hope you ...... Ready to face it......"
Gao Wen woke up in shock, he jerked his head up and looked in the direction of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the laboratory.
His gaze crossed the energy barrier of the fortress of disobedience, the chaos and darkness of the shadow realm, the rubble and debris floating in the air, and stared at the corpse of the giant deer, Ammon.
(It's time to push books again!) The title of the book is "Drinking This Bowl of Meng Po Soup", and I copied the introduction directly:
Ye Bei is a Mr. Yin and Yang, the kind who does not have a business license.
Relying on the innate mysterious jade pendant, he cooked a bowl of Meng Po soup and gave psychological counseling (physics) to all kinds of demons and monsters.
Due to professional reasons, he often tried frantically on the edge of life and death, until one day, Ye Bei found that he couldn't die
Let me tell you, the supernatural looks really exciting, especially when you look at it alone, although the number of words is still very small, but it feels very potential to look at it.
Anyway, if the milk dies, it is considered a supernatural phenomenon. οΌ
