In the south of Oasis City, near the foot of the Snow Peak, there is a small village called Snow Peak Village, because there are no resources in this vicinity, and there are no roads that will pass through here, it is sparsely populated, few people will come here, and the whole village has a relatively simple life.

Recently, however, six new villagers have arrived, the most notable of which is a girl in her twenties.

For this village, which is rarely entered by the living, the people from the outside are more eye-catching, let alone a little girl, the most important thing is that this girl has blonde hair, fair skin, and the clothes on her body are very different from those of the Orlante Kingdom, which is even more eye-catching compared to ordinary people.

Her name is Gloria, and her name is often difficult for villagers who hear her name for the first time, and of course the others are the same, and they can only communicate in simple Chinese.

Because the village is so remote and too poor, many young people will go to the nearby oasis city to look for work, and over time, there are fewer and fewer people here, but there are more and more empty houses left, and their accommodation is not difficult, and it is arranged as soon as they come.

Gloria's chosen room is located in a very high position, and if the village is built at the foot of the mountain, then her room can be said to be on the mountainside.

She has been in this village for half a month, and in the past half a month, she has done nothing, and every day she has renovated her residence, and the villagers who pass by the door of her residence are puzzled, because the transformation of her residence makes them unable to understand. The wide roof, with a huge cut in it, was so empty that I didn't know what to do with it.

In this location, in fact, an astronomical telescope is to be installed.

A month ago, Gloria and her few remaining crew members were rescued by Lin Jue. After they woke up, Lin Jue didn't ask them any questions, maybe in his opinion, this was a shipwreck, a merchant ship, attacked by pirates, the ship was destroyed and people died, and nothing could be done except sigh for them.

This saves Gloria some explanation, and she also takes advantage of the situation to let Lin Jue think so. Lin Jue sympathized with their plight, so he asked them if they would like to settle in the Orlante Kingdom, and after she agreed, she gave them a considerable amount of settlement fees, and enthusiastically wanted them to join her company. After all, a few people with sailing experience, in this era, are not so easy to find.

However, Gloria refused, after all, her ideal was to find a place where the church could not find it, and quietly study astronomy. It happens that in the Kingdom of Orlante, everything that is available here can just reach its own ideals.

"Perhaps, this is fate, right?"

Gloria lay on the ground, looking through the big hole in the roof, looking at the stars in the sky and sighing softly.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

There was a knock on the door, and Gloria frowned and muttered, "Who is coming to me at such a late hour?"

She came to the door, opened the door, and looked at the figure outside the door in a daze.

Lin Jue smiled and said, "Miss Gloria, is it convenient for me to go in now?"

Gloria was silent for a moment, but still welcomed Lin Jue in.

"Lord Lin, the humble house is shabby, and the hospitality is not good, I hope you will forgive me. ”

Lin Jue didn't say a word, came in and looked at it, looked at the strange hole on the roof, and was stunned.

"Miss Gloria, do you need someone to fix the roof?"

Gloria shook her head and said, "No need, I want to install a telescope here and look at the stars." ”

Lin Jue smiled: "This is a good hobby, studying the starry sky, studying this world under the cover of religious forces, and seeing its true face." ”

Gloria was stunned, silent for a moment, and wondered, "Could it be that Lord Lin understands astronomy?"

Lin Jue shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't know much, but I know a little more than ordinary people." Studying astronomy allows people to understand the truth about this world. The descriptions of the world in which people live exist more often in religious texts, but in my opinion, the world records in these religious texts are full of errors. ”

Gloria became interested, smiled and asked, "Oh, can you please explain to Master Lin what the world looks like in your eyes with the help of astronomy?"

Lin Jue didn't answer, but asked, "Excuse me, Miss Gloria, what is this world like in various classics?"

Gloria pondered for a moment and replied, "There are different records of this world, but one thing is the same. The center of this land is the center of the whole world, and everything has to depend on this world. ”

Lin Jue sighed softly: "This is wrong. ”

Gloria shook her head and said, "In my opinion, this land is the center of this world, and this is not entirely wrong. ”

Lin Jue was puzzled: "So in your eyes, what is this world like?"

"This world is spherical, its center is not the center of the continent, the whole continent only depends on its operation. The place where we are is is the center of the whole world, and countless celestial bodies are orbiting the whole world, including the sun and the moon, and they can also be considered as a huge celestial body, orbiting around the world, providing people with light and heat. ”

Lin Jue asked with interest: "So, this can be said to overturn the theory that there is a basis for the existence of religious theology, how do you prove its existence?"

Gloria smiled: "Of course I can prove it, because I have proved that four years ago, I made my theory into a model of how the world works, although there are still some details of the problem, but it is basically successful." ”

Lin Jue asked, "So, what are these details?"

Gloria frowned slightly, and replied, "This model has been made since my grandfather's generation, and it was not until it was passed on to me that it was finally completed. The center of this model is the world, and everything, including the sun and the moon, and all the celestial bodies, are rotating at a uniform speed around the center of this world, at least within a few months of the model being completed, the model is running without any problems, but over time, most of the celestial bodies deviate from their original orbits. ”

Lin Jue nodded secretly, he understood Gloria's theory, which also existed in the scientific development of his own world, that is, geocentrism.

Lin Jue smiled and said: "Since this theory doesn't work, then why don't you think about it, maybe the center of the world is not under our feet, for example, the sun is the center of this world?"

Gloria frowned slightly, for her, the concept of geocentrism has been ingrained in her heart, Lin Jue's words are obviously not believing her own statement, purely out of ridicule of herself.

"I suppose Lord Lin came to me tonight, not just to talk to me, right?"

Lin Jue shook his head and said, "Indeed, to be precise, I am not looking for you, not a Miss Gloria who likes to look at the stars." ”

After a pause, Lin Jue smiled and said, "I'm looking for the legendary pirate who has crossed the seven seas, the crazy Miss Gloria. ”
