Magic was the foundation of this world. It made the multiverse appear so colorful. It was enchanting and mysterious. It was the origin of the world, or in other words, magic was the origin of the world. Everything was born from the elements, and it was permeated with the power of magic. It was chaotic, but also orderly. It was rational, but also illogical.
The primordial magic was the material that created everything. It was the silent and ignorant consciousness of existence itself. Magic permeated every bit of matter and manifested through any form of energy in the multiverse.
This was magic, a system that was completely different from science.
Chen Ang's explorations were not only fighting against the endless unknown, but he was also fighting against himself all the time. The logical concept and mode of thinking called science were deeply rooted in his mind. They were incomparably firm and tenacious. This gave him unlimited spirit to explore and research, but also imprisoned his way of thinking.
It was true that Chen Ang could deconstruct magic from a scientific point of view. In fact, he was adapting to this world. This world had given him something completely new, and it was rapidly assimilating and merging with his old ways of thinking. Science was a path to the truth, but it did not mean that Chen Ang would fix a relatively rigid thinking mode.
This way, the new thinking, new changes, and new ideas of this world were very worth learning and researching. While trying his best to abandon the influence of the old thinking mode, Chen Ang was trying his best to maintain the relative independence of his thinking.
Knowledge was priceless, and wisdom was even higher. But the only thing more important than both was imagination.
When imagination was imprisoned in the old and rigid thinking mode, it was not inappropriate to call it the Twilight of the Gods. The Twilight of Thinking!
"The Weave is a very appropriate name! Primordial magic, or rather, the orderly network woven by primordial magic. It is sensitive and flexible, and it connects the spellcaster and the primordial magic power. I can imagine how many civilizations and individual wisdom this huge network is the crystallization of this huge network. "A faint white light flashed on the tip of Chen Ang's finger, and it was quickly dyed with a silver-white luster.
He used the tip of his finger to draw across the void in front of him, leaving a row of colorful runes. It was full of twisted and messy complexity and eccentricity. This kind of impactful mental power was like a 20g file being stuffed into the brain of the person watching.
It was a magic trick from a level 0 cantrip!
"Many people think that magic is orderly and intelligent. It is elegant art, it is difficult knowledge, but only people like us who are close to the truth can realize that the origin of all things does not have any attributes! Chaos and order, evil and good meant nothing to it. Because this is something that intelligent beings have imposed upon this world! "
"And magic already existed before this!" Chen Ang sat on the right side of the table in a relaxed manner, as if he was greeting an old friend. There was no one on his left.
An unfamiliar voice came from the left side of the table. It was a very low laugh, as if it was muffled in the throat. "Before that, magic did not exist. It was us who defined it!"
"Weave chaotic and violent primordial magic power into docile magic power? He was right. This is you! " Chen Ang didn't comment. His right index finger gently flicked in an irregular pattern, twisting the air into a strange black shadow that existed in an extremely distorted form above the space. A black tentacle carefully stretched out from it, twisting and swinging in the air, raising its body high.
It was like a frightened worm.
"Primordial magic power! Ha … "The low voice seemed to be amused, and he let out a shrill laugh. The small shadow in the air that communicated with the shadow plane shook violently, and the shadow creature's tentacle suddenly straightened. It let out a sharp cry and twisted violently in the air, as if it was struggling before death.
"A false concept! In other words, it should be the superficial appearance of the multiverse. The part that belongs to the energy affinity. The essence of magic is the universe itself, creating everything, defining everything, and subliming the existence of matter, energy, information, and soul! Among them, the part that can be affected by the soul. It is defined as primordial magic power. "
"It is violent and untamed, enduring huge interference and chaos at any time. It is changeable and mysterious, like a lover with a strange temper, but also as crazy and great as the sea. If I had to describe it with one existence, it would be a woman!"
"Hahaha! Cough cough cough … "The strange existence laughed maniacally, even causing a violent cough. He endured the great discomfort and said with difficulty," I am Mystra! That Bian Zi will go crazy! What did we do? We put a chewing head on a woman's head! Well said, the definition is precise. "
"The Weave is like that. Even though Mystra has always claimed that she created the Weave because of a war between Sala and Suren, we all know that she is the projection of the Weave itself! We created her, and all the contracts and agreements related to the Weave, its structure and weave, its information, and its way of existence. "
"It is the wizards who created the Weave, not the other way around! The Weave is not a god, nor is it an idol. We weaved it, and it is the agreement and existence of the spellcasters that defines magic power. Only those who understand this are legends! At least the spellcasters are. Even though we use a precise term to call it, the Weave is not an isolated existence … "
"It's more of a conceptual thing. Mystra is a part of it, and perhaps there are other parts that symbolize it as well …"
In Chen Ang's memory, there was an existence that was closer to this concept. The internet was a concept that only existed in the physical world. It was made up of countless protocols and information, and it was an existence that existed only in the physical world. To be complete, it included the physical network, communication protocols that represented the laws of the internet, information, and a part of the human spirit.
The Weave was built on the shallow energy interference layer of the multiverse. It was the sum total of all the rules and regulations related to primordial magic. In a narrow sense, it was the energy and information network controlled by the administrator Mystra.
The main administrator, Mystra, had several related administrators, such as the God of Wizards, a large number of spellcasters, a relatively large number of spellcasters, a relatively large number of spellcasters, a relatively large number of spellcasters, mages, and hackers who broke the balance. Similarly, there was the Shadow Weave, a competitor of the Weave system.
"What an interesting understanding, Lord Halast!" Chen Ang could not help but exclaim in admiration. Who would have thought that a mad wizard living in seclusion in the Underground City would have such a crazy conversation with the controller of a small gang? This completely mad wizard did not seem to be as crazy as the legends said, unable to communicate with him.
Of course, this was only Chen Ang's personal opinion. Most people would probably think that this was a conversation between two lunatics. If the world was magic, where were the gods?
"Keen intuition, unique perspective, my neighbour! Your Gnomes have almost dug to the Underground Maze Castle. I welcome a wise neighbour, but I must remind you that wizards are always eccentric and sensitive. There can only be one wizard tower in one place! Similarly, there can only be one leader. "
Halast looked very calm, even elegant and wise. Considering that this was not the surface, his madness made people curious.
"Waterdeep City is a place full of charm. It is filled with the sparks of fate and spirituality. Living here, there will often be surprises to disturb you. Bards, Shadow Thieves, Harpies, and Scattered Forest Towers. You have quite a bit of trouble!"
"How is this trouble?" Chen Ang asked with a smile.
Halast was silent for a long time, then nodded in agreement. "How is this trouble?" "Of course it is not trouble, because change is an opportunity. An opportunity that can be grasped is not trouble!"
"But even so, there is still a long way to go before you can convince me!"
