Inside the meeting room of the Highest Council …
After Lucien fell silent, Vicente said, "Arcana must be based on comprehensible images. Unimaginable and incomprehensible things can only be complicated mathematical processes. So, Brook, Oliver, congratulations. This is the real foundation of the new alchemy and the orthodox theory in the microscopic domain. Your work has allowed us to return to the real land, instead of wandering in the maze of matrices without a foundation."
"Nonsense. The real foundation of arcana is observability. Things that cannot be observed are meaningless to us. Naturally, there is no need to impose an image on them." Fernando explained his perspective that had changed in recent years in a storm.
Lucien also added, "It is against the basic logic to apply the image of the macroscopic world to the microscopic domain recklessly. There will be great problems."
"But in any case, electrons do show waves." Oliver joined the argument.
When the unusual phenomena of the arrival of many demiplanes were about to happen again, Douglas tapped the table softly. "The debate on the wave equation can wait until the meeting is over. Let's observe five minutes of silence for Klaus first. We will make the Lord of Hell pay."
Lucien closed his eyes and began to observe the silence, hoping that his speculation about the nature of the soul was correct. In that case …
In the meeting that followed, the Highest Council discussed the Saint Truth, Thanos, and Viken. They basically agreed with Douglas, Fernando, and Lucien's proposal to shake the foundation of faith and confuse Viken with the stories that were mixed with truth and falsehood in the broadcast, making him think that the Congress of Magic had not discovered the most fundamental secrets or reached an agreement with the monsters. In the meantime, they hid the central intelligence and drew the Grand Cardinals to their side in secret so that they could play a role at the critical moment.
Because there were few things that could be submitted to the Highest Council in the first place, the meeting was over in less than an hour. Hellen, who had been studying the whole time, suddenly raised her head. "If the new alchemy system based on the Oliver-Brook wave equation fits all the experiments so far and can also resolve the previous problems, what does it mean?"
She rarely asked questions so seriously in a meeting. When Viken's issue was discussed just now, she had already spared some of her attention to listen.
"Different theories can explain the same thing at the same time, which means that they should be equivalent to a certain extent." Hathaway seemed to have considered for a long time. "Since wave properties and particle properties are both the features and properties of electrons, matrix mechanics and wave mechanics may be equivalent."
Douglas, Fernando, Chelsea, Erica and the rest of them nodded in agreement. "We can try to prove it."
Brook thought for a moment before he nodded and said, "It should be possible to use a mathematical method."
Although Oliver thought that it was possible, he was not too happy about it. In his opinion, matrix mechanics should be a special manifestation of the particle nature of wave mechanics.
After the discussion, the members of the Highest Council left one after another. Lucien and Fernando were the last to leave.
"I feel that Oliver's interpretation of the arcana meaning of the wave function is somewhat problematic. In that case, there will be self-contradictions when solving the atomic model. Let's see how Oliver intends to explain the details." Fernando considered solemnly.
Lucien nodded. "The interpretation of the arcana significance of the wave function has to be based on experimental phenomena."
…
At the beginning of the Month of Harvest (September), inside the classroom of the Holt Magic College …
The low-rank sorcerers, Onore, Clark, and many other students were waiting for Mr. Ernesto to distribute the journals such as' Arcana ',' Magic ', and' Nature '. Heidi, the teacher of' Basics of New Alchemy ', was standing on the podium. Her face did not look very good. She looked down and rubbed her feet, as if she were about to stomp on a bunch of ants.
"Ms. Heidi doesn't seem very happy?" Clark said to Onore carefully, not because he had sharp eyes, but because Heidi was too obvious.
Onore shook his head. "I'm not familiar with Ms. Heidi. How can I know what happened to her? Maybe her results in the Atom Institution were criticized by Mr. Evans, or maybe she had a conflict with her friends. It's hard to tell. She can't be changing the textbook of the new alchemy again, can she? "
"Hehe. How is that possible? All in all, let's be careful not to piss Ms. Heidi off later." Clark reminded Onore.
Although Heidi tried to imitate Lucien's teaching style, everybody had their own personality. Gradually, she was nicknamed 'Smiling Fiend'.
At this moment, Ernesto walked in with a storage bag that was full of journals. With a weird expression, he said cautiously, "Pick up the journals in order."
After the electron diffraction experiment last time, Onore, who had grown familiar with Ernesto, immediately speculated the moment he saw his face. "Is there another disruptive theory or experiment result?"
After taking over the journals, Onore began to read them eagerly before he returned to his seat. The first paper on 'Arcana' gave him the answer: 'The Wave Equation of Microscopic Particles and the Essence of Quantum Mechanics', by Edwin Brook and Oliver Constantine.
"Wave equation, wave function …" Although Onore believed that there would be a wave function after the electron diffraction experiment was verified, he was still greatly shocked when he saw it with his own eyes. The real microscopic particles did have a wave function! It was almost unbelievable!
No wonder Ms. Heidi didn't look good! He suddenly had an epiphany about it.
After he sat down again, Onore sensed that the atmosphere around him was quiet and suffused with vague depression, which was similar to his own feelings. The development in the past few months was truly unstoppable. He couldn't help but stagger and find it hard to adapt to the current pace of changes.
Reading the paper in silence, Onore was gradually fascinated. The familiar form of the classic wave equation and the easy-to-understand operations and concepts were much simpler than the mind-numbing matrix mechanics!
As he read, Onore was so touched that he almost burst into tears. This was arcana! This was the foundation of the new alchemy! Lord Brooke and Lord Oliver are so great! They had geniuses' brains!
"What a classic and great wave equation! It's much more vivid than matrix mechanics! It's much easier to learn! "There was no telling who exclaimed in amazement.
"Is that so?" Heidi's low voice echoed in the grand classroom.
The sorcerer who spoke hurried to shut his mouth and complained in his heart, Of course it is!
… …
In the Song of the Silver Moon League, in the Hand of Paleness, and in all the places where sorcerers gathered, similar feelings were spreading out.
"Arcana has finally returned to its original form!" The senior-rank sorcerers of the Song of the Silver Moon League, who had been savaged by the general theory of relativity and matrix mechanics, almost had the idea of holding a party to celebrate.
"Mr. Brook and Mr. Oliver have made epoch-changing contributions!"
"I wish that I could devote all my time to understanding it!"
Joaquin, the president, rubbed his eyebrow and remarked with mixed feelings, "Waves are indeed the foundation of existence."
Before, they were only arguing whether or not light and electromagnetic waves were waves. They did not expect that even the fundamental particles of matter were waves. They had unexpectedly secured a comprehensive victory.
"But the particle nature of electrons and photons is also obvious …" Jurisian poured cold water on the president's enthusiasm. "Also, it still needs to be verified and deduced whether or not a new alchemy system can be established based on the wave equation."
Joaquin and the other sorcerers had a clear understanding of it too, because most of the arcanists who did not have such an attitude had quit the stage of arcana, or even the stage of life, in the past ten years.
"Especially since Lucien Evans hasn't expressed his opinion on it yet," Joaquin said in a low voice.
His words immediately resonated. Many senior-rank sorcerers said in fear, "That head-blowing maniac …"
Jurisian could only shake his head with a bitter smile. "Let's verify whether or not the wave equation can explain the model of the new alchemy first."
… …
Inside the Tower …
Bergner, the Prophet, was explaining some problems of the general theory of relativity to Neeshka and Samantha.
Of the more famous geniuses of Lucien's generation, Jurisian, Larry, and Ulysses had successfully advanced into the senior rank after the special theory of relativity. Rachel, on the other hand, had made a breakthrough with her accumulation in astrology and illusion this year. Samantha had also advanced after she solved her own problems by grasping part of the application of the general theory of relativity to astrology.
Therefore, she valued the general theory of relativity very much, but her foundation was still not enough, so she had to ask her teacher often. Her teacher, Neeshka, did not understand the general theory of relativity very well either. He could only ask for advice from Douglas, the Prophet, and other people, or write to Lucien.
"The Oliver-Brook equation … Recently, a major change in the microscopic domain has happened every couple of months." The Prophet remarked with mixed feelings.
After the meeting of the Highest Council, the exploration base in the World of Souls was moved back to Heidler City, and 'Absolute Defense' Ataman took over the duty.
Neeshka smiled. "Let's focus on the general theory of relativity in the school of astrology. However fiercely they argue, it has nothing to do with us."
"How is that possible? It's the microscopic particles that make up the planets too. "Samantha did not quite agree with her teacher.
Bergner smiled. "I agree with Lucien's perspective. Electrons are not waves but waves. Also, some weird factors seem to be playing a role in the transition from the microscopic to the macroscopic, preventing the weird states in the microscopic domain from being mapped to the macroscopic domain. Therefore, the foundation of the school of astrology cannot be affected yet."
As he spoke, he was suddenly stunned, as if something heavy had suddenly covered the starry sky of destiny. It was a bad feeling!
Could the arguments in the microscopic domain really affect the macroscopic cosmos?
Why was his feeling even stronger than that?
Was something important about to be 'destroyed'?
