It was very cold in the mountains at night. The heat of the rainy season seemed to have disappeared temporarily. Gusts of swirling wind blew into the cave and onto Lucien's and Natasha's faces, bringing them a refreshing feeling that they had not felt for a long time.
Natasha watched Lucien unfold the special parchment, activate the magic circles, light up the crystal lamp, and pick up the quill.
She had seen arcanists writing papers before, but she had never heard of any arcanist who could write papers to improve the substantialization of their cognitive world in such a dangerous environment. Lucien was always able to subvert people's common sense.
Holding her breath, Natasha watched Lucien finish the title of the paper and begin to write the main text.
"This paper is based on the principle of relativity and the principle of the invariance of the speed of light. Therefore, I have the following rules:"
Awoo!
Suddenly, the howls of wild beasts echoed one after another. It was soul-stirring and made one tremble from the bottom of one's heart.
Natasha was slightly shocked. Then she mocked herself, "Night is coming. It's time for wild beasts and monsters to move again."
She had accumulated a lot of new vocabulary and sentences by listening to Lucien's private broadcast of 'Arcana Voice' for a long time.
After mocking herself, she began to watch Lucien's deduction with an experimental and curious mind. She wanted to see how much she could understand with her current level.
After a short period of difficulty, Lucien's pen flowed out like the wind. Natasha's beautiful silver-purple eyes were dazzled. She hurried to shake her head and looked up at Lucien's attentive face. His chiseled profile emitted indescribable charm under the illumination of the light.
Natasha held her right hand with her left hand and rubbed her chin with her right hand subconsciously. She watched attentively and shook her head now and then. "What a shame … What a shame …"
… …
In a lively green oasis in the desert to the east, a building that looked like a palace in the sky was floating.
Among the buildings, the most spacious one was a church where a cross was erected. Behind the church, there was a plain library.
Inside the study, Benedict II, who looked like an ordinary old man, was reading the intelligence reports from various places with a soft hat. Now and then, he would pick up the white porcelain teacup and take a sip of the black tea.
Suddenly, Benedict II's right hand shook slightly, and the white porcelain teacup quickly fell to the ground. Right when it was about to break, it flew back to Benedict II's hand as if it had been caught by the wind.
Benedict II's white eyebrows slightly furrowed. Putting down the teacup, he walked to the window and looked at the peaceful starry sky outside, unable to calm himself down for a long time.
"What happened exactly?" An expert in the demigod level like him couldn't have dropped the teacup for no reason.
When his emotions slowly calmed down, the Pope took out his scepter and prayed in a low voice, asking the 'God'.
"No answer at all? Could it be that Alterna is competing with him? "Benedict II muttered to himself in confusion.
…
On the east side of a stormy ocean, quite a few pointy magic towers had been established by the seaside.
In one of the magic towers, Douglas was discussing the recent matters with the Lord of Storm and Hathaway, who had returned without any success. Oliver and the Lord of the Undead, on the other hand, went deep into the swamps in the east to hunt down a legendary false god. The false god was a black dragon that was close to legendary in the first place. Later, for some reason, it was worshipped by people and other sub-dragons. Gradually, it was corrupted by the power of faith and advanced into legendary. It called itself 'Dark Dragon God', and it was also the only legendary expert in this world right now.
Hellen, the Witch of Iceland, exchanged with Hathaway and returned to Allyn to guard the headquarters of the Congress of Magic.
"Fernando, don't worry. No news is good news." Douglas comforted the Lord of Storm.
The Lord of Storm coughed angrily and said stubbornly, "Why should I worry? Lucien has so many secrets. There's no telling how many experiments and research results he's hiding. It's good enough that he doesn't harm anyone. "
Hathaway said concisely, "If there's no scheme behind this, Lucien is basically safe."
She had fully confirmed Lucien's capability and adaptability.
"If there's a scheme …" Fernando's red eyes bulged and he gnashed his teeth. Fierce wind rose, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. The scene was horrifying.
It was quite a coincidence. For someone as smart as the grand arcanists, they naturally saw some clues and had a preliminary speculation.
As they were talking, Douglas's heart trembled. He looked out of the window and saw that the red sun was slowly rising by the seaside. The sunlight dyed the ocean red.
It was a beautiful and moving scenery, but Douglas suddenly felt as if the sea had become demonic and sinister. The large patches of crimson red seemed to be formed by countless amounts of blood, making one's heart palpitate in fear.
"What's going on?"
"It's good, and not good …"
Douglas's specialty was astrology and force field. He was almost as good as the Prophet when it came to astrology and astrology.
Fernando and Hathaway also looked out of the window. Neither of them had any premonition, but at the same time, they had two contradictory feelings of depression and comfort.
… …
Natasha quietly watched Lucien write his paper. She was not impatient at all. Instead, she was enjoying herself. She looked around in confusion and murmured to herself, "Why do I feel that time and space are changing?"
Lucien's paper was gradually increasing. He had sorted out and acknowledged the research results in the past three years, which was the most important step of feedback to himself.
His cognitive world began to appear both illusionary and real. The stars that revolved rapidly, the weird rays, and the elements that split and released radiation and particles all had amazing changes, as if the river of time that was flowing quietly and unaffected by anything suddenly lost its independence and absoluteness. It was entangled with matter, energy, and space, becoming indistinguishable from each other.
Soundless explosions echoed in Lucien's cognitive world, raising a terrifying storm. The space structure and time changes in his cognitive world completely deviated from the absolute time and space description under the dual systems of Douglas and Brook. It was closer to reality and seemed to be a complete world.
The half-substantialized cognitive world that boasted 'space' and 'time' changed quickly. Illusionary seemed to have evolved into reality. When the deduction of the theme of the theory of relativity was almost completed, Lucien's cognitive world was finally substantialized!
Lucien did not stop. He began to deduce the mass-energy formula from the previous content.
Very soon, the deduction was completed. Taking a deep breath, Lucien wrote the final formula with his quill:
"E = mc ^ 2."
Boom. Hardly had the concise and classic formula appeared on the paper when the light spots of elements in Lucien's cognitive world split and gathered. The overwhelming and terrifying energy burst out, pushing the other projections of his cognitive world to the edge. Boom.
The moment she saw the simple formula that seemed to contain infinite mysteries, Natasha felt that it was covered in the color of destruction and vigorous power. However, when she looked at it more carefully, she did not have the same feeling as before. Boom.
A mushroom cloud rose in the changes of elements. A complicated and incomplete model seemed to be hiding inside. Boom. Boom.
Somehow, Natasha sensed something. She turned around and looked at the dark night outside of the cave. In the sky, an illusionary, scorching sun suddenly appeared. The beasts and monsters that were howling a moment ago had all fallen silent. Boom. Boom.
The pope also saw the scorching sun in the middle of the sky. The terrifying pressure and light had eclipsed the stars. Boom.
Boom. Douglas, Fernando, and Hathaway's eyes were frozen on the seaside. On the left side of the orange morning sun, a new sun was rising! Boom.
Ell couldn't help but raise his right hand to cover his eyes, as if he were scared of the sun in the dark night.
After a second, Natasha blinked her eyes. The night was as dark as before. There was no scorching sun at all.
Wu … Wu … Wu … In the forest, the beasts and monsters that were howling a moment ago made noises again, but they were full of fear and sorrow.
Benedict II closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the world was still functioning normally. The stars in the dark night were clear and brilliant, as if what happened just now was just his illusion.
Looking at the sky, Benedict II was silent for a long time. Even with his knowledge, he did not understand what was going on. There seemed to be a heavy stone pressing on his heart.
In the magic tower by the seaside, Douglas asked, half depressed and half curious, "Has someone cracked the mysteries of the sun? But why can we see it too? Is it because the half-solidification of the cognitive world has begun to affect the real world? But it shouldn't be so vast … "
The half-solidification of the cognitive world and the beginning to affect the real world was one of the signs of legendary advancement.
Hathaway shook her head. "It's probably not legendary. Considering the uniqueness of this world and the weird things that suppress spiritual power."
Douglas nodded in agreement. Looking at the Lord of Storm who was deep in thought, he asked, "Fernando, what are you thinking about?"
The Lord of Storm rubbed his eyebrows. "I'm suspecting that it's Lucien's doing. Is he on the path of destroying the world? I have to find him as soon as possible. "
The Lord of Storm, who often listened to 'Arcana Voice' and 'News of the World', had picked up a lot of popular terms.
"It's possible." After a brief silence, Hathaway said, "It's a pity that we can't determine his location."
"At least we know that he's still alive and well." Douglas comforted her.
… …
Moving her eyes back in shock, Natasha saw that Lucien had put down his quill. She asked concernedly, "Has your cognitive world been substantialized?"
"Yes, I should be able to use the Congus Ring now." Lucien was still immersed in the changes of his cognitive world.
Relieved, Natasha moved her eyes to the paper and asked curiously, "What are these formulas talking about?"
"They're saying that as the speed gets faster, approaching the speed of light, time will slow down, space will shrink, and mass will increase, which means that the clock will be slower than normal and the ruler will be shorter than normal …" Lucien tried to describe the formulas in simple words. "And mass and energy can be transformed into each other."
Natasha had basic common sense, so she asked in shock and confusion, "Time, space, and mass will change as the speed gets faster? Aren't they absolute and independent? Time doesn't exist. It's just a scale. "
Seeing that Lucien was about to explain, Natasha hurriedly pressed her right hand. "Make it simple. Make it as simple as possible."
Lucien thought for a moment and said solemnly, "To put it simply, mass is energy, energy is mass, time is space, and space is time!"
The howls of the beasts and monsters outside were more and more like sorrowful cries.
