Chapter 15: The Three Laws of Thaumaturgy

"Please turn to page 9 of the textbook, "A Preliminary Study of Thaumaturgy (1) - Definition of EVE Particles and Thaumaturgical Users".

The screen behind Raugan danced with his speech, and so did the students' AI sprites.

"The basics of thaumaturgy that we are going to talk about today, first of all, we will start with the three laws of thaumaturgy, please keep these three laws in mind." As he spoke, Raugan dragged the content of the screen behind him backwards.

【The Three Laws of Thaumaturgy】

Like-minded begets like-minded.

Part affects the whole.

Observation changes reality.

"Thaumaturgy, or magic, must have its own source of energy, just like a light bulb needs electricity, and the human body needs ATP.

The main source of thaumaturgy is EVE, "Elan-Vital Energy", also known as Life Force Energy. ”

"EVE is emitted by living beings. It also often emanates from paranormal objects. EVE radiation is not an absolute sign that someone or something has an anomalous nature, but it is often so. The higher the level of intelligence, the higher and more intensive the level of EVE emitted: the stronger the observer effect, the stronger the EVE level. Humans are beyond the average animal. Animals in general are more than plants in general. ”

"According to the third law, thaumaturgists can gain the power to distort the world by observing the [Aetheric Ocean] and using their EVE particles."

"Students, remember, thaumaturgy is a conceptual change with the help of [Aetheric Ocean]."

As he spoke, Raugan raised his left and right hands, and a burning flame suddenly erupted from his left hand, while a floating ice pick appeared in his right hand.

"Making ice out of thin air and making fire out of thin air consume the same amount of EVE particles for thaumaturgists.

The thaumaturgical product in my hands is a thaumaturgical application derived from the second and third laws, the result of a temporary distortion of the principles of the world, and therefore cannot be regarded as a "substance". ”

"According to the laws of the material world, making ice out of thin air is much more outrageous than making fire out of thin air."

"In the future, you will learn basic physics and basic thermodynamics in the Mathematics and Natural Sciences of the Ordinary Studies, which are the iron of the material world, and do not involve thaumaturgy."

"You must not challenge the professors of the mundane group with your thaumaturgical knowledge, come, look at this senior on the screen who has been frozen into an ice sculpture.

They are similar to brains looking for reality in the virtual world... Well, students who need to strengthen their learning. Raugan immediately retracted his words.

In the following time, Raugan explained interesting thaumaturgical experiments to the students in an easy-to-understand way.

"Alright, that's the end of today's class. Since it is just the beginning of the school year, and most of the students have not yet been linked to the pedigree, they will not assign classwork. Raugan ended the lesson with a smile.

After announcing the end of class, a six-pointed star circle composed of plural triangles appeared again under Lauengen's feet, and his whole person disappeared again with the circle.

After Raugen's departure, the students kept reminiscing about what he had said, especially those who were new to thaumaturgy. Camille was very excited, and she didn't know where she got her notes, she was taking notes while she was in class.

Xia Xiu got up and prepared to leave after the class, he looked at the class schedule and found that it was only one class in the morning.

Just in time, you can use the rest of the time to visit Three Portlands and see if you can buy some biological DNA templates suitable for [Flesh Shaping].

Xia Xiu knew that there was a coffee shop on the East End of Three Portlands where a unique branching genealogy application could be installed, and there were a lot of very exciting things for sale. It's just that this device has a [anti-Muggle antibody] virus, which is a cognitive effect virus that can shield memories, so it needs to be specially administered a tube of [anti-Muggle antibody].

"Hugh, Hugh, why are you running so fast?"

As soon as Xia Xiu walked out of the teaching area, he heard a familiar shout behind him, and when he looked back, he saw Camille sprinting towards her with his notes in his arms.

Camille still maintained her gloomy hairstyle that covered her entire face, and she still wore old-fashioned glasses on her face, the only difference being that she had changed into a robe, but even such a loose robe could not cover the protruding parts of her body.

"Slow down." Xia Xiu still smiled gently at Camille as always.

"Whew~" Camille stopped in front of Xia Xiu, and then gasped there for a while.

"Are you looking for something with me?"

"Ah, there is... No um. That, you want to take notes, I see that you didn't take notes in class, and you feel like everyone is in a daze. Camille struggled for a long time, and finally came up with a suitable excuse.

What am I talking about!?

After saying that, Camille regretted it.

Isn't this just telling the other party that he is still paying attention to the other person in class?

Xia Xiu glanced strangely at Camille, who was steaming alone again, and he raised his hand to get Jarvis out, changing the [Single Player Visual Interface] on it to sharing, and then called up a record [Lesson Playback Record-{1589.2.10}].

"The think tank has a course playback record, and all the previous courses have been included, and you can call it up from the think tank when you need it, well, it also supports double-speed playback."

"And this feature!?" Camille's mouth opened in surprise.

Forgive her, she was a Muggle before, and she hadn't used such advanced transcendent technology as the pedigree.

"That, that, I... I, I still have something, just... I won't bother you yet. Camille went away steaming again.

It's a shame.

Xia Xiu looked at Camille who stumbled back strangely, he didn't understand what Camille was doing.

I don't understand.

Three Portland's street plans are distributed along a network of polar coordinates, with straight "spoked" streets radiating from the city center and intersecting at irregular intervals with concentric rings. There are several narrow alleys between the buildings, which are formed by the expansion of the urban ground.

Since Sanbo City is primarily a pedestrian city, these streets are not designed for motor vehicles and are largely difficult for motor vehicles to pass. In addition, the City Council bans personal cars and heavy motor vehicles throughout the city, with a few exceptions. Personal transport is provided by a number of taxi companies via motorized tricycles that traverse narrow streets.

The South East District has a robust and affordable public transport system. The Deer Courtyard is a 10-minute walk from the Thaumaturgical Light Rail station, and there are several streetcar lines on or near campus.

Three Portlands: Most residents are bicycled or thaumaturgically accessible as a means of transportation.

Students can register bicycles, thaumaturgical speeds, flying carpets, brooms, skateboards, exorcisms, and other personal vehicles at the Social Security Department. If stolen or misplaced, the Community Safety Officer can track any registered vehicle anywhere in Three Portlands.

[Arrive at the station ahead - [Prometheus Plaza], please get off the bus in time if you need to get off the train. 】

A suspended light rail stops at the stop at Prometheus Plaza.
