11. Classical Theory of Magic
After two days of exploration, the preliminary proved reserves of spar were preliminarily identified, which is a small spar mine, and the spar reserves are three times that of the original spar mine discovered in Otrando.
Huolin Qiaoton set up a special management team here, responsible for the mining of spars, Rowling and Thomson joined the group, as local representatives, Rowling did not say to go to the capital, two students also made great contributions, for which a reward of 100 points, the two can be said to be overjoyed, originally they did the task, but ten standard points, don't underestimate this 100 standard points, an ordinary magic item, but about ten standard points, and students do school tasks, usually a task between five standard points and ten standard points, as a first-year student, the standard score saved has exceeded the senior students。
As for Emma and Wang Qinian, their personal rights have been raised by one level, and there are also a large number of rewards, which can be received in money, and can be converted into materials, or magical items, so to speak, the two of them have earned a lot of money.
The two returned to Huolinqiaoton, and their reputation rose to a new level, and many students came to the Department of Magical Items to see if there was any task to receive, Wang Qinian smiled bitterly, he and Emma had a small fire in Huolinqiaoton.
The students heard that Wang Qinian would give a lecture on "Black Magic and Protection" next semester, and they all hoped to come soon next semester. During this time, Wang Qinian read a large number of books, covering all aspects, from all kinds of magic to the history of magic, from magic arrays to astrology, from pure mathematical knowledge to philosophy, from myths and legends to religion. It is a by-product of the ancient sages' thinking about nature and life, which at first consisted of the incomprehension of mysterious phenomena, and gradually came to an abstract explanation.
Thinking about the world is a process that every high-level magician must go through, otherwise his level will only wait for this, Wang Qinian remembered that he was getting the "Book of the Dead" and began to think about the origin of magic, so as to comprehend the elemental will, and finally understand the root of magic cultivation, at the lower stage, with his own qualifications. A series of factors based on the teacher's guidance and personal luck. Every magician embarked on a colorful path of magic, but from the elemental will, the path of a magician began to be unified again, and he embarked on thinking about the world, life, and so on. Magician Advanced Magi. Most of them lie in this. Unless there are a few lucky people, they all have their own certain understanding of the origin of magic in the world, no matter what it is. It doesn't even matter if it's right or wrong, at least it's logically self-consistent.
Wang Qinian felt very amazing about this, in this way, magic is idealistic, is there no fixed explanation in the world, or is it that the world is idealistic, and changes with the consciousness of each person, as if the quantum mechanics of the previous life had such words, Wang Qinian regretted a little, his level in his previous life was only high school, he did not understand modern science and technology at all, and the quantum mechanics and relativity theory are almost empty, the theory of relativity is okay, at least remember a little expression in the special theory of relativity, and the mass-energy equation, which is not talked about in the book, because the mass-energy equation is too famous。
For quantum mechanics, he only knows some concepts, such as wave-particle duality and Planck's constant, and nothing else, to be honest, he regrets it, but it is impossible to turn back time, and he cannot return to Earth, but fortunately, he is a lich and has lived for a long time, and this world already has a similar scientific eruption.
Wang Qinian remembered Joseph Newton, an alchemist who had already touched the edge of classical mechanics, and the law of gravitation might be born in his hands.
Wang Qinian originally wanted to put forward the theory of gravitation, but he was not sure if the physical laws of the two worlds were really the same, when he was in Rotterdorburg, he only vaguely mentioned gravity as a friend, that is, he hoped that Niu Tun could propose the law of gravitation, he didn't want to come out, don't forget, he was a lich wanted by the bishop.
Another point, he was a little embarrassed to attribute Newton's credit to himself, not to mention that he didn't know if the way was correct, but he believed that this world would develop in a few hundred years, especially the discovery of spars, and the glory that the goblin civilization had reached.
In terms of philosophy, there was a group of scholars who had reached a very high level, Bertulaphim proposed the only perfect truth world, and our world world is just a projection of the perfect world, and Suzherich believed that virtue is knowledge, good comes from knowledge, and evil comes from ignorance, and put forward the proposition of "self-knowledge and ignorance", believing that only those who give up the search for the natural world (because that is the realm of God) and admit their ignorance are smart people. The most knowledgeable is God, and knowledge ultimately comes from God, and true knowledge is obedience to God.
Ados, on the other hand, was the master of the doctrine of the four elements and pioneered the study of theory, including mathematics, natural philosophy, and the first philosophy later known as metaphysics, and the study of practice, including ethics, politics, economics, strategy, and modification, and the study of creation, that is, poetics.
The most interesting is the theory of water and fire, that is Taylor and Herak, one believes that water is the first element, the other believes that fire is the first element, and the "Holy Codex" of the Founding Bishop begins with the saying: In the beginning, the heavens and the earth were chaotic, and the spirit of God ran on the water. It was said for Shuicheng.
In mathematics and physics, there is Kimede, who has written many books, such as "Method", "On Floating Bodies", which discusses the buoyancy of objects, and studies the stability of rotating projectiles in fluids, "On Spheres and Cylinders", which starts from several definitions and axioms, and introduces more than 50 propositions about the area and volume of spheres and cylinders, "The Equilibrium of Plane Figures or Their Centers of Gravity", "The Sand Counter", "On Levers", "On Splitting Cone Surfaces and Spheres", "Parabolic Quadratics" and " Books such as "On the Spiral" have even become essential reference books for magic textbooks, and play an important guiding significance for magic arrays and magic experiments.
This world, according to the history of magic, 10,000 years ago, the goblin civilization was glorious, once ruled many countries, and the four ancient human countries stood side by side, human beings are famous for magic, but goblins are famous for machinery, and later because of offending God, the goblin civilization collapsed, and even human civilization gave up mechanical research, and then after the so-called dark period, what happened in between, there is no record, according to some people, it is the punishment of God.
Within the next two or three thousand years, various religions were rampant, all based on totem and idolatry, in the middle, the great waves washed the sand, and the orcs of the barbarian continent created the Eju civilization, believing in the Nine Pillars God Religion, with the sun god Emon? Led by Ra, and built a grand pyramid, the time is 5,000 years from today, a little later, the southern end of the continent of ancient Silun rose, created a brilliant civilization, this is known as the mother of continental civilization of the Siren civilization, theologically believe in the Siren gods, that is, the god of the gods of the sky and thunder Jonapiter, the goddess of the earth Gaia, the goddess of wisdom Bernistina, the god of the sun and the god of war Rapollo, the god of craftsmen and art Muse, the goddess of dawn and dusk Aurora, the god of the sea Bose, the god of the silver moon Mengsi, the goddess of life Avena.
The Xilun civilization gradually weakened, the time is 2,500 years ago, the ancient Noma civilization arose, directly inherited the Xilun civilization, began to believe in the Xilun gods, and later the founding bishop arose, gradually replaced the belief in the Xilun gods, in the meantime, the Kaiwang Emperor of Hulu conquered the barbarian homeland in the north, conquered the barbarians, in fact, the Konishu people, destroyed the thunder god Orin of their faith, and made the gods of Northern Taixi enter the twilight.
The western expedition to Naples did not extinguish the druids in the whole territory, and the druids were also greatly damaged and had to sign a humiliating treaty.
Later, another Charlemagne appeared, and the Neumunsi Empire and its vassals who believed in Allah Anka successfully compressed them outside the continent of Tyransi, and then Tylensi became the world of the Creator Bishop, conquered the Barbarian Continent in the south, repelled the orcs, and spread the glory of the Creator to the Barbarian Continent.
This is the axis of time, Wang Qinian only understood the context of this world world until now, but it is still in Taixi Continent, as for other continents, it is still not clear, after all, the history of magic only records the events of Tailun Xizhou.
In the development of magic, the magic of the ancient period is also called witchcraft, and it is not like the current system, mainly the power of the totem, mixed with a large number of personified gods, there are so many names, Wang Qinian has not heard of it, before the orc civilization of Eju, it is mostly this period.
During the classical period, which was started by Eju, including the Silen period and the early Gunoma period, human beliefs gradually formed several major factions, and magical theories gradually took shape, most of which were based on the four-element doctrine of Adolius, adding to or subtracting from it.
After the establishment of the Creator Bishop, the theory of magic added theological content on the basis of the classical period, especially the transformation of the original belief in the elemental god into the elemental guardian angel, which still had a great influence on the theory of magic, so that the theory of magic entered the so-called classical period, but the foundation of the classical period was more detailed.
Wang Qinian began to be skeptical of this theory, but it could explain most magical phenomena and even created many legendary mages.
For knights, Wang Qinian felt that they felt a little bit like proving the Tao with their strength, they didn't need to understand much of the theory, nor did they need to comprehend any elemental will, etc., but continued to polish, and their bodies began to awaken.
Wang Qinian's reading at this stage, objectively speaking, made his magic knowledge begin to systematize, but also planted deep doubts, he felt that the classic magic theory has many flaws, and even fundamentally wrong, but Wang Qinian can't come up with a new theory, can only look at it first, he can't help but have an idea, to create a new magic theory system.
He remembered how he felt when he saw the Book ......of the Dead, as if the Elemental Doctrine was wrong!
