What was the point of studying the stars and astronomy?
He knew that time, direction, and calendars depended on astronomical research. In other words, studying astronomy was good for historical records, and using calendars to summarize the solar terms was good for agriculture.
But what was the point?
Liszt rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes, thinking quickly, Do I have to bring over the twelve zodiac signs and use them to study personality, fortune, and love? This kind of 'knowledge' did not seem to be of much use other than to hook up with girls.
But he quickly thought of a major use.
He said to A Qi seriously, "Don't think that studying astronomy is useless. In fact, astronomy is very likely to be of great use. I don't know if you still remember the legend of the Moon Empire. It is said that the Moon Empire had a teleportation circle that led to the moon. Do you think that without studying astronomy, such a teleportation circle could have been built?"
"Huh?"
A Qi was indeed shocked. "Brother, you are right. Without astronomical guidance, humans would not have been able to reach the moon. Although I don't know if the teleportation circle of the Moon Empire is real or not, but if we live on a planet, the moon as a planet might also have life. "
"That's right." Liszt nodded lightly. Even he believed his own words.
Many legends had been proven to be true, so the teleportation circle of the Moon Empire might not be fake. If there really was a teleportation circle that could land on the moon, he would definitely step into the teleportation circle in the future and travel to the moon to see what the scenery was like.
In fact, under Crazy's leadership, the Mage Tower in the territory had always been researching the communication magic circle, using the magic net as a foundation to exchange information.
If the research on the communication circle was successful, perhaps on this basis, they could further research the teleportation circle that could send objects.
Of course, the best way was to dig up some ruins and directly obtain the teleportation technology of the Moon Empire. When that happened, perhaps distance would no longer be a limit.
In any case, the teaching of observing the stars had officially begun.
Taking out the telescope, Liszt showed A Qi how to observe the celestial bodies. Ever since he invented the telescope, he had often used it to observe the sky, so he had experience. However, due to the limitations of the telescope itself, astronomical observation was more difficult. Moreover, determining the trajectory of the celestial bodies involved complicated calculations.
He knew nothing about this.
After all, he was bad at math. He could add, subtract, multiply, and divide, but not much else.
"Brother, since the telescope uses the principle of concave and convex mirrors, then can A Qi directly control water to make a telescope?"
"Well, it's not impossible, but simply stacking lenses isn't enough. We still need a lens tube to protect the light source."
"What about this?" A Qi waved her hand, and countless streams of water gathered in front of her. Then, the streams of water quickly formed a cylinder, and through some special arrangement, it became an opaque, pitch-black frosted surface. There were also two concave and convex mirrors formed by the streams of water, which were directly embedded in the mirror cylinder.
And so a telescope was made.
"Brother, A Qi's telescope can see the stars in the sky!"
"Oh." Liszt was a little envious of A Qi's ability to control water. "Not bad, not bad. Now that you have grasped the specific principle, the next step is to try to adjust the thickness of the concave-convex mirror and the combination of the lens barrel and the objective lens to find the most suitable viewing magnification."
At that moment, he quickly lost interest in teaching A Qi how to look at the stars and let A Qi carefully adjust the telescope she made with water.
He himself lay on the body of the light green gemstone dragon, thinking about something.
The secret book of Dragon Fighting, the light green gemstone mine, the mutated cypress tree, the surname and the name of the country, the material support, the change of the title, the reaction of the Eagle Kingdom, and countless other thoughts flashed in his mind.
The night gradually deepened, and before he knew it, he had fallen asleep.
…
The next day, before dawn, Liszt had already woken up.
He found that A Qi had crawled into his arms and slept intimately against him. Her petite body was a little cool, and the early winter frost condensed on his armor and A Qi's magic cloak. Last night, he forgot to open the tent, and he didn't take out the Calming Bead.
Fortunately, both he and A Qi had a physique far beyond that of ordinary people, so this little bit of cold was nothing.
A Qi slept very lightly. When Liszt woke up, the subtle movements of his body had already awakened her. Stretching, she left Liszt's body, and after saying goodbye, she took out her toiletries to clean up. Liszt also turned over and jumped off the light green gemstone dragon.
He washed his face, brushed his teeth, and did some simple cleaning.
He then used the Eye of Magic to observe the Cypress Tree Forest, and immediately found something strange. The entire Cypress Tree Forest was filled with a light green glow, the same as the light green gemstone dragon's magic glow. But if he looked closely, he would find a slight difference.
The light green gemstone dragon's magic glow was more solid, while the Cypress Tree Forest's magic glow was fainter.
He broke off a leaf and sensed it, and immediately found that the Cypress Tree's magic glow was low magic, different in nature from the light green gemstone dragon's high magic glow.
"So these Cypress Trees have become magic ingredients?"
If that was the case, it was a good harvest. The magic of a dragon could actually infect magic ingredients. But then he found that a few Cypress Trees with a more intense glow were the ones close to the light green gemstone dragon's body. The trunks, branches, and leaves of these Cypress Trees were actually showing signs of turning transparent.
He peeled off a piece of bark and carefully played with it. Soon, he saw the changes. "This, it seems that the Cypress Tree isn't transforming into a magic ingredient, but into a stone … or crystal?" Especially one of the Cypress Tree Ferns, whose leaves had actually crystallized.
Through the Eye of Magic's inspection, half of the leaves had become real crystals, while the rest were only partially crystallized, and magic was still slowly gathering.
"A Qi, come take a look."
"Coming."
A Qi was also very surprised. "Brother, these Cypress Trees have actually grown into crystals. Look at this leaf, it's no different from a crystal."
Liszt said directly, "Carefully compare the crystal to the leaf and see what the difference is."
"Okay."
After instructing A Qi to compare, Liszt continued to observe the entire Cypress Tree Forest. Gradually, he found a sign — the Cypress Ferns closer to the light green gemstone dragon were more crystallized, and the thicker the trunk of the mature Cypress Ferns were, the more crystallized they were, and the mature leaves were the first to crystallize.
"It seems that after they mature, they start to crystallize, and the immature parts continue to grow …" After an hour, he concluded that this forest of Cypress Ferns had mutated into "Crystal Cypress Ferns" — Cypress Ferns that could grow into crystals would directly crystallize when they matured.
On the back of the crystallized leaves were rings of red ribbons, like the "seeds" of the Cypress Ferns. These seeds were not crystallized.
On the contrary, with a wave of his hand, he could see many tiny seeds scattering into the air.
Every tiny seed carried a faint, almost invisible magical glow as it scattered in all directions.
He couldn't help but summon the smoke mission.
