Roland was impressed by the chief astrologer, who not only adhered to etiquette, but also took his duties very seriously. Although he has not made many achievements in stargazing, the Arithmetic Institute has done a good job, cultivating a large number of talents for Neverwinter, and also participating in the overall calculation of various departments of the Administration Department.

On the day when the Red Moon first appeared, the Diffuse Star came to the door again and again because he failed to give early warning, and repeatedly came to the door to ask for sin. However, Roland was busy dealing with emergencies in Neverwinter at the time, and directly asked the guards to send the other party back. After all, no one could have expected this thing to come so suddenly, not to mention that he never really expected the astrological association to discover the red moon from the beginning, and he turned around because he liked that they could write and calculate.

The fact that people who observe etiquette like this use the word "must" may be extraordinary. After Roland hung up the phone, he immediately took the guards and rushed to the arithmetic institute in the south of the city as soon as possible.

The so-called observatory is nothing more than an attic in the arithmetic academy – it was temporarily used as a temporary stargazing place for astrologers before they moved to the top floor of the Miracle Building. Of course, because the construction of the spectacle took longer than expected, in order to avoid the psychological gap between the initial painting of the pie and the actual treatment, he also made several large-aperture astronomical telescopes for these people, and transformed the top floor of the attic into a professional stargazing place that can rotate freely.

Entering the courtyard, the Diffuse Star Scholar had been waiting for a long time with a group of astrologers, and when he saw Roland in person, everyone knelt down on one knee in unison, "Meet Your Majesty!"

"Get up," Roland waved his hand casually, signaling that business was important, "without further ado, what did you find?"

"Your Majesty, please come with me. The old bachelor solemnly led him up to the top floor of the attic.

Pushing open the door, Roland saw that the floor of the room was covered with calculations and hand-drawn line diagrams, which, with his modest astronomical attainments, should have been the trajectory calculations of some star. In fact, the little astronomical knowledge he knew was enough to bluff the other party at first, and by the time elementary physics and mathematics were taught, the practical application level of these people was already above him after nearly two years of study.

Except for the Diffuse Astrologer, the other astrologers did not follow in, but stayed outside the door. The moment he closed the door, Roland caught a very serious look on the gray-haired faces, as if what he was about to say was the same as his last words.

"Roland......" Nightingale couldn't help but secretly tug at his sleeve.

Roland nodded quietly, with the nightingale behind him, he was not worried about any danger, but he was very curious about what kind of discovery could make this group of astrologers behave so carefully.

"Your Majesty, these days everyone has been observing the trajectory of the Red Moon and the changes it has brought about. After a moment of silence, the Diffuse Star finally spoke, "Since we couldn't accurately predict its arrival, we can at least hope to make some compensation, such as determining the star region and size it is in, otherwise the mission given to it by the Astrologers Association in the first place will be meaningless." But the results we're getting these days are horrifying. ”

Afraid...... Roland frowned, it really didn't seem like a word that could be associated with discovery, "What do you mean? ”

"Yes," the Bachelor lowered his voice, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the Star of Destruction is a hoax, Red Moon it...... It doesn't exist. ”

He couldn't help but be stunned, and then subconsciously turned his head to look out the window, the scarlet sphere was still hanging high in the air, and there was no intention of dissipating.

"You say that thing...... Non-existent?"

"I thought it was a little funny when I first thought about it, but as the observation continued, no one in the astrological community laughed. The diffuse star let out a sigh of relief—and as soon as he began, he spoke much more smoothly as if he had rested from his burden, "Yes, Your Majesty, it doesn't exist. Based on the observations accumulated over the past 100 years, as well as the knowledge you have imparted, we can conclude that it is impossible for a star of this magnitude not to have an impact on other stars. ”

However, according to the redrawn star map, after tracking and calculating the stars in the original area where the Star of Destruction was originally located, we noticed that none of the stars were offset because of their dislocation. This shows that the Star of Destruction did not affect either those stars nor us. ”

"Not only that, but it didn't even affect itself - the Star of Destruction had shown no signs of moving until now, which often meant that it was spinning in sync with us. But now that it was still at rest and synchronized after closing the distance, such a disparity in speed did not show the slightest expression on the Star of Destruction, which was really unreasonable. ”

Roland quickly understood what the old scholar meant, "If you remove it from the air......"

"Then everything makes sense," Mass nodded, "and it is only when it is not there that everything will appear normal, or that it makes no difference to the world whether the red moon is there or not." ”

Roland couldn't help but fall silent when he heard this.

He probably understood why the chief astrologer was hesitant and cautious—the rumors of the battle between the Red Moon and the Divine Will came from the ancient witches of Tachira, and as the head of the Academy of Arithmetic, the Diffuse Star would always hear something about them when they came into contact with the central carrier. If these are all confirmed to be lies woven by the Federation, it will only cause irreparable damage to the relationship between the two sides.

It's just that Roland didn't think about it at all, and the other lords might be upset when they heard this, but for him, whether it was watching Selene study the Rubik's Cube or taking the Witch of Punishment to walk the street, it was a lot of fun, and even if the foundation of cooperation was greatly reduced, he didn't mind continuing to maintain this relationship.

Not to mention that the threat of the devil is real.

"Are you sure this judgment is correct?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I have been thinking about this conclusion until I received a letter from a friend of the old royal capital this morning, and I dared to conclude it. The Missal took out a piece of letter from his bosom and spread it out, only to see that it seemed to be a map of the location of the red moon, "Due to the different places of observation, the positions of the stars will be slightly deflected, and this old friend of mine, although he was once a nobleman, is full of interest in astronomy, so I asked him to check the star region where the red moon is located from another direction, and it turned out that the reply he sent back was so different from the position we observed that it was almost impossible to explain by error!" In other words, if you use it as a reference point, it means that it is fixed in one place from any angle—not just in relation to the earth in which we are, but also in relation to everyone!"

Hearing this, Roland's heart jumped violently.

"Your Majesty, everything in the world is divided into front and back, left and right, high and low, and what does not change from any angle cannot be an entity!" said Mass word by word.

Roland's mind suddenly remembered the red spot he had seen in the dream world—although the shape was extremely irregular, no matter how he circled it, he saw the same appearance.

And in the dream, it has another name.

Erode.
