979. The Divine Emperor's Plan
In the city of Howl, in the Temple of the Forest Walker, Rand and the centaur girl Kaye wanted to talk to Halkala and Ernst, but just as they approached the idol, they heard a majestic voice.
"This magic, you must not think of using some kind of mathematical model to analyze it, what thousands of demigods have not done in the past and present, you want to do it on your own, even if you are an elf, there is no need to consume so much time."
"You actually persuaded me not to ask for a solution...... this was Guan Na's voice.
"Before I became a god, my understanding of magic was that reason and qi, reason is the law and principle of all magic, and qi is all magical elements.
Hearing this conversation, Rand, who was walking towards the idol, was a little stunned: Good fellow, a god only lectures in the wizarding world?
Having walked under the statue of Halkala, Rand was finally able to see the speaker: Alexei Dzochen, whose eyes were now glowing with gold, apparently in the state of the Emperor's arrival.
"Qi and reason are always complementary to each other, reason is one, qi is many, reason is constant, qi is change,
The element of magic is qi, which can change its state and nature under the influence of the principle of magic, which is completely different from our world......
Alexei said a lot, and waited until he finished speaking, and then Guan Na, who was listening to the lecture, said, "Your Majesty, if you summarize what you just said, is it the relationship between objective laws and matter? I don't think it's necessary to translate it again with your theory of reason, do I?"
"Hahaha, if you think that magic and matter are inseparable, then of course you don't need to translate it that way," Alexei said with a smile, "but you, like me, or Rand, always think that matter is matter, and magic is not the original nature of matter, but just some effect imposed on it, right?"
"......" Guan Na thought about it, and it was really like this, for her, the concept of magic was still a stylized thing.
"When I first came, I didn't fit in, I used to want to bring the knowledge, theories and even systems in this world
But then I realized that some of the scientific knowledge I had learned could not be fully applied to this world, and that I could only use philosophical theories to provide some ideas for understanding magic from the macro perspective of matter and laws." The God Emperor attached himself to the body of the magician and talked eloquently.
"That's not to say that what our ancients said must be fulfilled in magic, but it's better to have a ready-made way of thinking than to be completely blind."
Speaking of this, the God Emperor smiled and pointed at the Rand who had just arrived, "Just like him, he discussed Zen with the magic goblin, and it turned out to be really lucky, so that Queen Tenya was promoted."
"That's just an expression I borrowed from the ancients."
Seeing that Guan Na and Alexei were both looking at him, Lan Te asked, "I said, Your Majesty, why are you free to come here today?"
"It's not that His Majesty Ugin said that he found the best mage seedling in hundreds of years, let me take care of it more."
"She?" Rand suddenly felt speechless for a while, he promoted the two fairy queens with his ability, and installed the first magic furnace in the post-goblin era with his own hands, but he didn't leave such an evaluation.
"What? Not convinced?" The half-elf said proudly, "Do you know how many books I memorized when I was in school?"
Although he was really not convinced, Rand did not come to quarrel with Guan Na, originally he came to talk to his ancestor Harkala and complain about the empire's attitude towards the southeast region and the coastal islands.
However, now that he saw the incarnation of the God Emperor, he pulled Alexei to find a room and told him about yesterday's attack on the Demon Furnace Temple and Klein's attitude towards the southeast coast today.
"I remember when Crane first became a legend, he also tried to get more teenagers from the Southeast Kingdom into the Tower of Purity," the God Emperor said with a smile, "It's very similar to you now, but after almost 1,000 years, you already know his attitude."
The words of the God Emperor poured cold water on Rant, and his current vision of the world was based on enthusiasm and ignorance
Doesn't this group of people who have stood at the top of the empire for hundreds of years understand the problems of the empire?
The God Emperor saw that Rand's face was not good, so he simply joked: "Klein said that you are digging the foundation of the Seagod clan, the cultivation of demon plants, the underwater magic furnace, and the curse of the Seagod, and he even told me that you are going to train that Tierney Joyason to become the next generation of Seagod."
Rand couldn't stand it: "Huh? That's a bit of an exaggeration, isn't it?"
"But he's almost mastered the Poseidon priesthood, do you think the Poseidon will let go of the person who robbed him of the priesthood?" The God-Emperor's words seem to make sense, but in fact, he is reminding Rand that Tierney is already too dazzling, and unless he becomes the god of the sea, even if he becomes a legend, he should stay away from the ocean.
"This ......" but this seems to make some sense to Rand.
"Are you serious?" The God Emperor looked at Rand and didn't speak, feeling that this guy must be serious, "If Tierney can really become the god of the sea, the coastal lords of the empire will really be able to live a good life."
"It's not easy, is it?"
"Then it depends on his creation," From the perspective of the God Emperor himself, of course, he didn't think that Tierney could reach the top of the gods, but now he didn't dare to say whether Rand could create such a miracle, so he could only say,
"I've arranged for the Tower of Innocence to reserve a legendary place for his family, and I'm sure with his talent, it's only a matter of time before he becomes a legend."
The God Emperor is very satisfied with Rand's performance in the recent period, all his arrangements are improving the strength and status of the royal family, just take the knights of Yawenni, the income that can bring to the royal family has exceeded the annual distribution of the galloping horse fund.
"I know what you're thinking, to bring the Human Empire to the heights of the Goblin Empire of the past, and even beyond the borders of Alivia, to explore the entire starry sky." The God Emperor said solemnly.
"Yes, I think the development and colonization of space is what the empire should really do." Rant nodded.
"Indeed, during the time of the Goblin Empire and the Ancient Empire, there were several crazes for exploring other worlds, and in the Goblin Age, it was called the Great Starry Sky Discovery, and in the Ancient Empire, it was called the Otherworldly Development,"
mentioned the great era of the past, and the Rand and the God Emperor fell into some kind of reverie,
"In those times, it was all from the gods or demigods-level powerhouses to lead the exploration, and every time they found a space or planet with abundant resources, they could bring rich rewards to the empire.
Klein explored the new galaxy coordinates 400 years ago, when the Empire also developed 3 colonized planets and a dozen debris spaces on a large scale."
"At that time, I once thought that the empire had surpassed the ancient imperial era of the Demon Emperor, until the Great Demon Tide ......."
At the mention of the Great Demon Tide, the God Emperor let out a long sigh, and then fell into a long silence.
"Your Majesty......"
"I've memorized all of this, and I'm all preparing for it, but ......," the Emperor said in silence, "you should know about Hellid's turn, right?" Some things have to wait until after the thousand-year demon tide to begin."
