In Fangzheng's opinion, the Campus City itself did not look very advanced. Although the anime said that it was 30 years ahead of the technology of the outside world, in Fangzheng's opinion, it was only three years …. Strictly speaking, except for the buildings that looked newer and more sci-fi, the Campus City did not look more sci-fi than the other places.
Of course, it could not be compared to the Tendo Temple.
After a quick tour of the Campus City, the group came to one of the schools to experience a simulation course on the development of superpowers. The lecturer for the class was a person about the height of a primary school student, but in fact, she gave off the feeling of a primary school student …. Teacher Xiaomeng.
It was only then that Fangzheng managed to pull himself together and began to listen attentively to the teacher's explanation.
"…. To sum up, the most important thing in the Campus City's ability development course is personal reality, which is to obtain a reality that belongs only to you. This is the foundation of all superpowers …."
"Hmm …."
"In the process of understanding personal reality, quantum theory based on the uncertainty principle proposed by Heisenberg cannot be avoided …."
"Hmm …. Huh? What the hell? "
"The common point is that the goal is probability theory …."
"Huh ….?"
Upon hearing this, Fangzheng was completely dumbfounded. He stared at Teacher Xiaomeng on the podium, feeling completely dumbfounded.
Are you f * cking kidding me?
What kind of nonsense is this?
Although you make it sound very grand, what's the difference between this and the "Qigong Particle Research" and "Wave Quantum Speed Reading" back then?
Aren't they all lies?! I'm here to listen to a lecture on superpowers, can't you talk about something more reliable? It sounds grand to link superpowers and quantum mechanics together, but is there even a dime's worth of relationship between the two?
Forget it, maybe this is just part of the publicity.
Considering that the development of superpowers was the trump card of the campus metropolis, the other party probably wouldn't really take out the real superpower development course during the public tour. What if someone stole the course and used it somewhere else to develop superpowers? Haha, wouldn't that be stupid?
Therefore, Fangzheng quickly adjusted his attitude and focused on stroking the cat. On the other hand, Riko was listening with great interest. For someone who had always been discriminated against by her family, the development of superpowers in the school city was her last hope. Although she didn't know that in Fangzheng's eyes, it was all nonsense …
After attending a MLM course that was complete nonsense in Fangzheng's eyes, Teacher Xiaomeng finally took a break. She then invited several students with superpowers to perform. Only then did Fangzheng feel a little more spirited. After all, he was a god. He could basically understand the essence of superpowers at a glance.
The only pity was that Fangzheng didn't recognise any of the superpower users. They seemed to be mere bystanders, at least not level 5. The performances they performed were all very ordinary superpowers, such as telekinesis, water flow control and so on. But as he watched … Fangzheng could see something special about them.
However …..
"This is really interesting."
Fangzheng stroked his chin and narrowed his eyes as he watched the demonstration of superpowers in front of him. Although it did look like a superpower and sounded like a superpower, Fangzheng could tell that this so-called superpower was actually the same as the magic of the Zero Messenger world!
It was the manipulation of particles!
The difference was that in the Null world, the particles were divided into the four elements of wind, water, fire and earth because of their different natures. This world, on the other hand, followed the path of scientific classification, but there was actually no change in essence. For example, the psychic superpower user would be a wind magician in the Null world, and the water user who could manipulate water would be a water magician in the Null world ….
The principle of their actions was basically the same. They both thought in the mind, obtained a model, and then manipulated the particles to transform them into the form they wanted.
But this step in the Null world was a little more "magical". For example, when it came to treating injuries, the healing magic of the Null world belonged to the understanding that "after chanting the incantation, the wound can be healed". But in this world, it would become the idea of "manipulating liquids to speed up the solidification process to heal the wound".
The expression was different, but the essence was the same.
But it was not surprising. After all, according to the records of that world, the "magicians" of the Null world were originally from this world. Although it was said that the Primordial Ancestor led a large group of people to the Null world to escape the pursuit of another tribe, it was not impossible that there was only one tribe on Earth. If the Primordial Ancestor fled to the Null world with his tribe, wouldn't the other superpowers still stay in this world?
Then again, they actually wanted to attack this world …. Hehehe, they probably wouldn't even know how they died.
Fortunately, Red Ponytail stopped him.
But thinking about it, if Louise was in this world, she should be a level 5 superpower user. After all, she was a Nihility magician, and Nihility magic was the ability to manipulate atoms. This was also the reason why Louise's other magic would explode — if you manipulated atoms the same way you manipulated molecules, wouldn't it be natural for them to explode?
But in any case, this had nothing to do with the Uncertainty Theorem of Quantum Theory. Of course, if one had a superpower and could manipulate particles, learning this might help them deepen their mastery and research of their superpowers. But this is a development of superpowers! You want people who don't even know addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to learn calculus? Is there something wrong with you?
Sure enough, public teaching is all nonsense.
With this thought in mind, Fangzheng immediately opened his personal terminal and hacked into the Campus City's network system to see their teaching plan. The more Fangzheng read, the more surprised he became. Because … it was all nonsense!
According to the teaching materials investigated by Fangzheng, the so-called "personal reality" was indeed the focus of the development of superpowers in the Campus City, but its foundation was very strange.
And that was to believe!
Believe in yourself — okay, that's a bit reliable.
Believe in the world — this …. I don't know how to describe it.
Believe in science — this is nonsense!
Looking at it as a whole, Fangzheng's feeling was that this broken place was actually not scientific at all!
What did believing in science mean? Science was a way of looking at things. It was the value of using a scientific worldview and method to look at something.
But what did believing in science mean here?
It meant believing in all the theories of science!
Fangzheng did not know what to say …. No scientific theory was the truth. It needed to be tested, and it was very possible that later discoveries might overturn the reasoning of the predecessors. But the teachers in the Campus City completely treated scientific theories as the truth and asked the students to "worship" them, thereby shaping their own "personal reality"!
In Fangzheng's opinion, this was bullshit!
In other words, as a superpower user, one must first firmly believe that the basic theory that constructs one's ability is an immutable truth?!
Is this a joke?
What if one day, science develops and new discoveries overturn the previous theories? What would these people do?
If a superpower user who firmly believed in geocentric theory encountered heliocentric theory, what would he do?
Would his head explode?!
What kind of bullshit development of superpowers is this? This is clearly religious brainwashing! Isn't this the religion of science!
After figuring everything out, Fangzheng finally solved the puzzle he had when he first watched the anime. When Fangzheng watched the anime about the Magic Seal and the Super Cannon, there were a few parts that he could not understand. Take the designer of the tree diagram for example. The anime said that it was a supercomputer that could not be surpassed in twenty-five years. It was able to accurately predict the weather every day.
But it was still just a computer!
And the result?
Oh, the designer of the tree diagram said that as long as they killed twenty thousand Misaka Mikoto, they could level up to level six. So, everyone did it eagerly.
When the designer of the tree diagram said that it would not work, the scientists instantly fell into despair. 'My God, even the designer of the tree diagram said that it would not work. My idea must be wrong!' There was no other way!
When Fangzheng watched the anime, he felt that it was very stupid.
It was just a computer!
Even if it was twenty-five years more advanced than the world, it was still a computer, right? Why did it seem like the teachers and scientists in this school city were worshipping the computer's commands as if they were divine oracles?
Was this normal?
Was this the reaction of a normal, rational scientist?
Besides, even if the designer of the tree diagram said that killing twenty thousand Misaka Mikoto could level up, so what? What kind of theory was that based on? What kind of model came up with that conclusion? Weren't the models and calculation methods designed by humans? Take Fangzheng for example. He could also design a framework and figure out who would be able to level up to level six after killing twenty thousand Misaka Mikoto. Wasn't that simple?
All he had to do was upload the model.
At the end of the day, the designer of the tree diagram was just a supercomputer. It was not even an AI. Yet, these people still treated its words as the truth … Now, Fangzheng finally understood why.
After all this time, this godforsaken place was not a science city at all. It was basically the Holy City of the Church of Science!
"Forget it, Riko. Don't listen to this nonsense."
After the tour, Fangzheng made up his mind.
This stupid place was simply misleading people. Whoever came here would be paying the IQ tax!
"Huh? Is this all nonsense? "
Riko, who was originally very excited, was quite surprised when she heard Fangzheng's words.
"But I think it makes a lot of sense. Besides, there are indeed a lot of people with superpowers in the Campus City …"
"There are indeed a lot of them, but most of them are powerless people. The development of superpowers in the Campus City is not reliable at all. Forget it, I already know what this superpower development is all about after today's tour. I'll do it for you when I get back!"
"Huh?!"
