Lucien picked up the quill and drew two lines on the paper. "First of all, I admit that the relative system is imperfect. It cannot explain inertia and can only be limited to the reference frame of constant velocity. It cannot be extended to the reference frame of acceleration."
"However, based on the question you raised, it can still be seen that it is not a fallacy within the framework. These are the timelines of the two brothers. Let's analyze them separately. If the elder brother wants to fly away at the speed of light, there will be an acceleration from stillness to the final speed, which cannot be ignored. If the younger brother wants to return, there will be an acceleration in the opposite direction, which cannot be ignored either … However, according to the principle of relativity, the younger brother does not have the process of overcoming the inertia … "
While analyzing, Lucien calculated with data. It would've been the most convenient and simple way to introduce the general theory of relativity, explain inertia and gravity, and derive the time change of the acceleration process. However, Lucien could not do that right now. He could only analyze the timelines of the two brothers and calculate the time path with his knowledge of integral. That was how he got the result.
"… Therefore, the elder brother will be younger than the younger brother. To be more exact, the changes of his body have been slowed down …" Lucien came to the conclusion.
Rubbing the quill, Oliver observed Lucien's calculation carefully and recalled his analysis. Eventually, he nodded. "It's my fault for not considering the acceleration and deceleration. However, if the elder brother does not return but keeps wandering forward in space, who will be younger, he or the younger brother who has reached a stable speed?"
"It's meaningless. If the elder brother does not return and does not meet the younger brother, they will be in different reference frames and cannot be compared. They will be like two people in two completely unrelated worlds. They have their own lives and their own routines, but they have nothing to do with each other." Lucien smiled and pointed at the air next to him. "Perhaps there is such a real material world around us. It overlaps with our world, but they do not affect each other at all. When they meet, they pass through each other without any hindrance. Perhaps, in that world, in this place, someone is holding a lively ball. "
Fernando did not find anything wrong with Lucien's explanation. Instead, his expression turned grave when he heard Lucien's careless example. "This is a very strange idea. If such a world does exist, then our research on space-time and other similar fields is still in the beginning stage. It is hard to imagine that there is a world that is made of the same material and overlaps with each other without any influence."
Lucien hurriedly shook his head. "This is just my random thought. Teacher, you don't have to worry about it. It doesn't have any theoretical basis or practical significance."
Just now, Lucien blurted out part of the contents of a certain space-time concept in the Library of the Soul. However, this was an unproven conjecture based on the extension of quantum theory, and it was not favored by mainstream books.
"Then, let's move on to the next question …" Oliver opened his mouth again.
After a long communication, when the relativistic effect of accelerated particles was proved, Oliver had accepted the system preliminarily. However, he also reached a consensus with Lucien and Fernando. This was still an imperfect theory with many flaws. For example, according to the theory, the time on the artificial planet should be slower than on the ground, but it could be inferred from the specific data and the changes of the communication quality after the adjustment that it should be faster than on the ground.
"In any case, we've finally made a solid step on this path. I have a feeling that this will be a great revolution in the macroscopic field. We need to guide other arcanists carefully. Hehe, Lucien, you have remarkable abilities in both the microscopic and macroscopic fields. I'm afraid that it will be difficult for you to choose a legendary class in the future. Other people are worried that they can't find or construct a legendary class that suits their cognitive world, but you are confused about what to choose. How enviable. "
Oliver expressed his compliment politely. "I'll submit the transformation equations as soon as possible and try to catch up with 'Arcana' at the beginning of next month."
Lucien had always been cautious about the problem. Everything was based on the experiment results and the specific phenomena. After all, nobody knew whether or not one of the relativistic system and the quantum mechanics system would suddenly be inconsistent with the laws of this world at the end of the research.
Soul, spiritual power, space barrier, feedback of the world, magic models and other things reminded him all the time that this was a world that seemed the same as Earth but might be greatly different in the key foundations.
However, because he couldn't find a good way to study those aspects deeply, Lucien could only explore the current path slowly and cross the river by feeling the stones.
After confirming his relationship with Natasha, Lucien sorted out his future path in more detail and planned to adopt a more conservative attitude. After all, he was no longer alone. His attitude was to focus on quantum mechanics and the relativistic system in the construction of his cognitive world. He was ready to modify the relativistic theory according to quantum mechanics at any time.
At least in Lucien's opinion, quantum mechanics was the only theory that could explain why the two worlds had many identical constants but the differences in magic, spiritual power and bloodline fusion.
If he had to bet, Lucien was more inclined to bet on quantum mechanics than on the general theory of relativity!
Of course, the gravitational manipulation and the time manipulation that the general theory of relativity would inevitably entail were both things that Lucien could not abandon.
"Right now, the new alchemy hasn't been perfected yet, and the construction of a legendary class is still nowhere to be seen. I don't think too much about it yet." Lucien speculated that the legendary class that would appear would be something like "Atom Control", which could reduce the requirements for his studies on "fission" and "fusion". Chances were that "Atomic Fission" and "Eternal Blaze" would be the fundamental spells of the class, just like Demigod-lich's "Demigod-lich Howl" and "Soul Confinement" and Hathaway's "Element Decomposition".
Lucien did not say anything about that. He changed the topic. "Your Excellency Oliver, I'm told that you have been studying the Dark Dragon God. What have you learned?"
Since Lucien had submitted "Report on the Godhood of Ell" and was one of the "best" researchers in the field, Oliver did not hide anything and simply said, "It's a huge problem. The moment the Dark Dragon God leaves his alternate dimension and enters the main material world, his godhood decays. It seems that it's because the power of faith cannot be enhanced to him through the space barrier. So, the source has been greatly reduced, and he can only consume what he accumulated in the past. I believe that's why the few kingdoms of false gods near the Dark Mountain Range have few alternate dimensions developed and occupied. "
"But why is the Saint Truth not affected at all? Is that the difference between false gods and true gods? "
Oliver was not awed at all even though he was a true god. God was just a noun for him that belonged to the objects of study.
Lucien did not quite understand what was going on, either. After recording Oliver's questions in his magic notebook, he bade farewell, ready to leave the "Thunder Hell" and apply for files in the Affair Committee.
"Evans, wait a moment." Oliver suddenly stopped Lucien.
Lucien looked at Oliver in confusion. He was not familiar with the guy. What could it be?
Oliver chuckled. "I've made some mistakes recently, so I'm planning to write an opera to apologize to Florencia. Evans, you are the most distinguished musician. I hope that I can cooperate with you. The melodies and songs of the previous operas are really unsatisfactory."
"I'll try them sometime." Lucien did not turn him down. He took the opportunity to deepen his relationship with Oliver. It was better to have one more supporter than one more enemy in the Highest Council.
Also, Lucien was planning to write an opera as a gift for Natasha on the anniversary next year. Although he had the Library of the Soul as a reference, he was planning to greatly modify the opera. After all, it would be more sincere to give more of his own creations to his sweetheart as a gift. So, he decided to ask Oliver for advice.
Oliver left in satisfaction after receiving a positive answer. He promised that he would send the script to Lucien in a few days.
Watching him leave, Fernando sniffed. "He will be killed by a woman one day. I even suspect that Florencia will give him a fatal strike when he's asleep."
"How can a legendary sorcerer be killed so easily …" Lucien was not worried about Oliver's safety.
Fernando did not say anything else. He turned around and looked at Lucien. "Don't tell other people that you have confirmed your relationship with Natasha yet. We need to take it slow."
Although it was not difficult for somebody to guess that Natasha celebrated Lucien's birthday last night from their traces, it was impossible to know the specific extent of their relationship since she left early in the morning. Also, Lucien's whereabouts were exposed on purpose, or he could've returned with the Transformation Mask.
… …
In the Affair Committee, Lucien found Thompson.
"You want the files of the clerics in the parish of Holm? You're concerned about the situation now? " Thompson was somewhat surprised. In his eyes, Lucien was an ascetic sorcerer who was devoted to his studies and did not pay attention to the outside world at all. For example, he did not even have a lover.
Lucien said with a perfunctory smile, "After all, we both live in the Kingdom of Holm. If we want to experiment in peace, we have to pay attention to the situation here. Thompson, is my clearance enough?"
"Yes, absolutely. Your clearance right now is only second to the members of the Highest Council." Thompson shook his head and asked his subordinates to find the files. Then, he gave them to Lucien. "You can't take them away or copy them. You can only read them here."
Lucien browsed through the files and focused on the list of clerics who were willing to get in touch with sorcerers, before he recorded them in the Library of the Soul.
"… Red Robe Richard, level eight. In his public sermon, he said that God loves the world regardless of who they are and what they do …"
Rubbing the name with his thumb, Lucien had a preliminary target.
… …
In the Nekso Palace, Natasha was still meeting with the nobles large and small according to her previous routine.
Although it was impossible for her to grasp everybody's thoughts and inclinations through the short conversations, it was already worth it to deepen the nobles' impression of her and their reverence for the royal power through the meetings.
"Your Majesty, I have a summer manor in the suburbs. I wonder if you can visit it?" Duke James changed his previous conservative attitude and said to Natasha ingratiatingly.
Natasha smiled. "I'll take a look if I have time."
As Lucien expected, after learning that he was going to celebrate Lucien's birthday, the attitude of the liberal nobles immediately became enthusiastic, implying their firm support.
James, the bald, tough man, took his leave respectfully with a smile. After he left, Natasha asked Camille who came in from outside of the palace, "Aunt Camille, what's the Church's reaction?"
The Church of Holm's reaction was Sardes' reaction!
