The truth of the world?
Although Lucien said it in a low voice, the members of the Highest Council on the spot were at least ninth-circle archmages. How could they not hear it clearly? Also, in their ears, it was even louder than thunder and collapses, as if an explosion was echoing in their heads.
One could only see the truth of the world if they abandoned their original concepts?
Was this the truth of the world?
The electrons that had always behaved as perfect particles revealed an extremely classic diffraction pattern when they bombarded the crystal!
The degree of absurdity was like the sun hanging high in the sky with no clouds for thousands of miles. The bright and beautiful scenery in the daytime was actually a cold and silent night where one couldn't even see one's own fingers!
It was as if the holy and beautiful angels were stinky, hideous devils!
Was this the truth of the world?
The truth that was more unbelievable than imagination, weirder than magic, and more unpredictable than gods?
At this moment, including Douglas, the president of the Congress of Magic, all the grand arcanists who were most interested in the mysteries of the world couldn't help but shake their heads. It had completely overturned and refreshed their understanding of the world. Everything was so bizarre that they felt like the most unbelievable monsters!
As for the other legendary sorcerers and archmages, some of them subconsciously raised their right hand and covered their mouths. Some of them clenched their fists, as if they were going to crush the objects in their hands. Some of them bit their lips hard, as if they were trying to distinguish whether or not it was an illusion through the pain.
They had been chasing the truth of the world every moment, but when the truth was slightly unveiled and they saw part of the 'face', they were so scared that they 'backed off' nonstop.
Was this the truth of the world?
It was completely different from their daily experience and intuition!
It made them feel that they did not know the world before their eyes anymore!
All of a sudden, the rainstorm, the lightning, the starlight, and the snowflakes were all gone. Douglas, Brook, Hathaway, Fernando, and the rest of them quickly established magic circles, ready to verify the experiment.
Even though Lucien's magic circles were completed right before their eyes, and even though the streams of electrons were launched by Brook in person, they would not choose to believe it until they verified it themselves!
"Use the monocrystals …" Lucien suddenly reminded them and briefly described some information about the monocrystals.
Hathaway nodded her head and prepared according to Lucien's description. The other members of the Highest Council did the same.
Very soon, a dozen complex magic circles were set up. Large single crystals were placed at the center of the magic circles. Brook, Fernando, Oliver, Light of Starlight, and the other sorcerers who were good at electromagnetism directly launched electron streams. The rest of them completed the work with all kinds of magic spells or items.
Without a sound, the beautiful and dreamy diffraction images appeared in Brook's magic circles. Then, they lit up one after another. The whole conference room was so quiet that it looked like a mysterious and creepy sketch.
Rumble!
The low thunder sounded like a suppressed roar. The tide of elements and the heaven of alchemy appeared again. The light spots of gold, silver, white, black, green, and other colors became rather blurry, as if they could not stabilize their existence and were about to collapse.
Thankfully, several seconds later, everything fell quiet again. The members of the Highest Council controlled their intense feelings.
For the authorities of waves such as Brook and Oliver, it was not a destructive strike but a great boon. However, the unimaginable situation made them too shocked to keep calm.
The supporters of the particle theory, on the other hand, had been prepared for the special performance of particles because of the previous debate. Also, it could be used to resolve the problems of the new alchemy. Therefore, their cognitive world was stabilized quickly after the shaking, and the tragedy of being broken and solidified did not happen.
Of course, it was also because they were experts who stood at the top of the world. Their bearing, vision, knowledge, and control were all better than other arcanists.
"The microscopic world is even more unbelievable than we thought." Hathaway's cold face was still filled with vague shock. She looked at the diffraction image before her with complicated feelings. She was both passionate about the deepest mysteries of the world and subconsciously resistant.
"Yes." Douglas waved his hands and canceled the magic circle that he deployed. He said with mixed feelings, "In the past, we thought that the microscopic world was just the reduction of the scale and the subdivision of atoms. It was a realm made of microscopic particles that corresponded to the macroscopic universe. The difficulty in studying it was the discovery of particles and the models of the elements that they constituted. It was essentially no different from the real world, and all kinds of concepts, formulas, and motion systems could be applied to it. However, the microscopic particles were entirely different from everything that we knew in the past."
"Yes. They boast unbelievable features. Whether they are waves that behave like particles, particles that behave like waves, or what Lucien said is neither waves nor particles but unimaginable substances that we cannot describe accurately yet, they are all full of unbelievable feelings." Oliver still tried to explain the situation in terms of waves.
Brook sighed softly. "It seems that we really have to abandon the original concept. This is truly an unbelievable 'world'."
Lucien's hands were still in the pockets of his double-breasted suit. He smiled and said, "Only such unimaginable and unbelievable things are the truth that we are trying to approach, aren't they? It is not advisable to simply introduce the things in the real world into the microscopic world. "
"I have a feeling that the microscopic world will change our worldview again and again, letting us know what secrets are hidden in the real world that we can touch and see."
"The waves of electrons alone have shattered my worldview. Evans, you are truly a destroyer of worldviews." Klaus said exaggeratedly, not hiding his bitterness.
Lucien smiled and said to Douglas, Hathaway, Fernando, and the rest of them, "Magic is abundant and unpredictable. It is already unbelievable for the clerics, Knight, nobles, and ordinary people. Our imagination is even weirder and more unbelievable than magic."
"The mysteries of the microscopic world, on the other hand, are certainly more bizarre and subversive than our imagination, because our imagination is based on experience and knowledge and cannot be broken through. However, in the microscopic domain, most of our past experience and knowledge may not be valid or even completely contradict them. It is even more unreal and unarcana than all the myths and legends, all the heroic stories, and all the fantasy poems."
"However, it is exactly such a realm that is closer to the truth and can make us so fascinated and focused."
Douglas closed his eyes, as if he were fascinated by the diffraction image just now. "If the truth of the world were not full of secrets, how could it have attracted our exploration and studies for decades? How could we regard the process and the harvest as the greatest pleasure? We would not regret it even if we were to die because of it."
"After the initial shock and disbelief, I have been more curious about electrons, light, and the microscopic world than ever before. I want to explore the unimaginable matter clearly." Brook was also full of admiration for the microscopic world that was even more fantastical than fantasy.
Fernando cursed, "This doesn't make me feel good. It's as if the things I've studied before are worthless. But this also makes me very motivated, because I haven't studied anything yet, and I haven't learned anything yet! The truth of the world is like the boundless cosmos, but I'm still playing on one of the planets and picking up some gems by chance. "
Vicente, on the other hand, looked at Lucien with his dark red flames bouncing. He said, "If microscopic particles can show the nature of waves, why don't we, who are made of microscopic particles, show the nature of waves instead of existing in this place? Dieppe's paper can be directly extended to macroscopic matters. "
"Perhaps the wavelength is too small to be ignored." Oliver thought for a moment and replied.
Lucien said solemnly, "Like I said just now, many of our past experiences and common sense are no longer applicable in this microscopic world. Perhaps certain changes will happen during the process from the microscopic to the macroscopic, which will make the nature of waves disappear and the nature of particles stabilize."
Holding her chin with her thumb and forefinger, Hathaway made the same gesture of thinking as Natasha did, not caring that it was in conflict with her cold and indifferent image at all. It seemed that it was part of her family. Lucien, on the other hand, was infected. "A matter that has mass, charge, and momentum shows the nature of waves. We need to understand this world again. The reality on the surface is so uncoordinated with the domain at the bottom. What exactly happened when electrons and protons were made of atoms, and atoms were made of elements, so that we are not seeing the macroscopic world of wave-particle duality?"
Hellen forgot the books, drafts, and quill in front of her and observed the diffraction experiments made by every member of the Highest Council again and again. Then, she found an alchemical device that captured electrons and emitted electrons to it through a strong magnetic field, creating flashing fluorescent spots.
Slightly frowning, she said, "There is no sign of waves at all in this observation … If electrons can show both the nature of particles and the nature of waves, why can we only observe one at a time?"
As a matter of fact, every grand arcanist had a hundred thousand questions. Hathaway, Hellen, and the rest of them, whose cognitive world was shaken, soon raised a series of questions in their zeal for research.
Lucien, on the other hand, secretly clicked his tongue. They had found the most fundamental and unbelievable problem in the wave-particle duality of electrons so quickly. Arcana intuitions were indeed powerful!
Thankfully, they did not expect Lucien to answer them. They simply considered on their own and were caught in the frenzied state of research.
After a long time, Douglas knocked the table and woke them up. "The problem cannot be resolved anytime soon. Let's study the nature of particles and waves of electrons after we go back."
"Let's discuss today's topic, which is the establishment of an advanced magic school on the other districts on the thirty-first floor of the Allyn magic tower. Right now, arcana is developing faster and faster, and there is more and more knowledge in the field of mathematics. The apprentices and low-rank sorcerers after graduation, on their own, have less and less solid foundations. Therefore, we need an advanced school to teach the excellent apprentices and low-rank sorcerers on a large scale. "
It had been talked about before, but it was never urgent. However, with the rapid development of arcana in the past ten years, Douglas believed that it was urgent.
"By then, a member of the Highest Council will serve as the president of the school. The senior-rank arcanists and middle-rank arcanists will be asked to teach in shifts. It will be best if the members of the Review Board can teach there often."
Lucien's lips twitched. Should he promote the title of professor?
