The silver lines lit up one after another, and the space-time gate was formed based on the material object. The space-time around Lucien's body was layered, and he stepped into the gate.
Then, the dazzling light burst out, and Lucien gradually disappeared. When everything was settled, Natasha could only see the empty magic circle and the pale gate of time and space.
… …
"The teleportation to the Cosmic Observatory is about to begin. Please make sure that you have drunk the potion in your hand." Layria's crisp voice echoed in the ears of Ali, Anderson, Jane, and Philomena.
Ali looked at the light blue test tube in his hand. The spicy taste of the potion still lingered in his mouth. However, after taking the potion, he did feel indescribably refreshed, as if his soul, brain, and body were all put into a magic refrigerator.
Earlier, he saw that Jane stood out first, so he hurried to follow her. Thankfully, he was lucky enough to be the fourth one, and he did not have to wait for the next batch.
Turning his head, he met Jane's eyes. He saw that the pair of black eyes had lost their usual calmness, as if two clusters of fire were burning in them. Excitement, excitement, and yearning could be clearly sensed without any discrimination. It was the truest yearning of human beings living on the ground for the vast space and the boundless universe.
Perhaps if one had not been in the space once, he or she would never understand what was insignificant and what was true vastness and tolerance.
Looking around and seeing the expressions of these students, Layria smiled and thought to herself, "The council is really generous. Each of us is given a tube of 'Enhanced Chigar' potion. Normally, we would rather endure the dizziness caused by the teleportation than exchange for the potion."
Chigar was a kind of fruit that was a specialty of the Kingdom of Holm. It was extremely rare and could be used as the main material to make almost senior-rank potions.
However, Layria also knew that the Congress' generosity had its own purpose. When these students really 'saw' the space and felt the vastness of the universe, they would understand that the 'God of Truth', who was competing for resources and believers on this insignificant planet, was not as great as they thought.
Then, through their dissemination, similar viewpoints would be formed among the young people and children who were receiving school education. Together with the follow-up measures such as the Cosmos Museum, the Cosmos Experience Center, and the Walk into the Cosmos program, they would be promoted to the entire four countries of the strait and the Northland Coastal Corridor, broadening the horizons of the people as much as possible.
"Attention, the teleportation circle is activated." Layria activated the magic circle.
Ali's heart suddenly tensed up. He had never even experienced flying before, yet he was already 'enjoying' the space jump!
While he was nervous, the uncontrollable anticipation and yearning made him tremble uncontrollably.
The bright silver light was reflected in Ali's eyes, making him feel that his surroundings had become unusually bright but also blurry.
…
Inside the tower.
Rachel, who came to Samantha with the journal of Arcana, was both excited and frustrated. The two different emotions made her forehead swollen. She rubbed her forehead and said, "There really are positrons …"
"You can't say that there are positrons until you verify it yourself." Samantha's expression was also complicated.
Although she said so, she still believed that Lucien had indeed discovered positrons. Not to mention the absolute importance of the Lucien equation in the microscopic domain after it was popularized, and the perfect fit with many experiments, the arcanists had to believe that the negative solution of the equation did indeed represent antiparticles. Lucien had always been rigorous in arcana, and he had never published a paper before, but she had no doubt that positrons could indeed be discovered from cosmic rays. That was perhaps the power of authority.
"This world is too amazing. In the past millions of years, not a single intelligent creature realized that there was antimatter. As arcana deepens, the 'real world' will be unfolded before us step by step." Rachel's eyes were full of yearning and excitement. The exploration of the mysteries of the world was the most essential and attractive charm of arcana.
Although most of the arcanists devoted themselves to the study of arcana for power, money, treasures, and enjoyment, and some of them gradually forgot the 'beauty' that attracted them to become arcanists in the first place after years of boring research, blinded by power and wealth, every time they made a major discovery, every time they got closer to the real world, they would still recall or feel the passion and beauty of exploring the world.
Samantha nodded. "In fact, in terms of symmetry, antiparticles seem to be a very normal thing. If there is a particle, there must be an antiparticle that is conjugate and symmetric with it. Mr. Evans has also abandoned the most doubtful concept of negative energy and replaced it with the appearance and annihilation of positive and negative particles in pairs."
"Yes. I wonder how those guys who have been praising the 'vacuum ocean of negative energy' are feeling right now. Even the grand arcanists who they think should support the conjecture most have abandoned the concept." Rachel chuckled. Although the picture of the vacuum ocean of negative energy excited every sorcerer, and they seemed to have found a way to explain the nature of magic, all the arcanists who had more in-depth studies in the microscopic domain were cautious and pessimistic after their excitement, because the experiments on some particles whose spins were integers were not very optimistic.
Samantha put on a rare smile. "In any case, it's impossible to prove it for now. Mr. Evans's' undulating ocean of energy in the vacuum 'cannot be proved either …"
As she spoke, her smile became complicated. She asked in confusion, "Is the uncertainty principle really one of the sources of matter?"
If that was the case, where should determinism be? Had it been swept into the garbage heap of history?
"Mr. Evans has provided an idea to verify the uncertainty principle at the end of the paper …" Rachel's voice suddenly became unfocused. "According to the field theory and the uncertainty principle, there are tiny electromagnetic fluctuations in the vacuum, which can be verified by appropriate experiments."
Looking at the paper on the desk, Samantha was lost for words. Lucien's' glorious achievements' in the past had shown that he was definitely not a delusional arcanist or an arcanist who proposed experiments without confidence. Since he had proposed an idea to verify the uncertainty principle, it meant that he was very confident.
After the uncertainty principle was proposed, although the experiments in the microscopic domain were very similar to it, there were no experiments that directly proved it yet. That was why the arcanists of the school of astrology could slowly adapt to it and not be 'destroyed' by the huge and direct shock.
"If the experiment idea had been proved two years earlier, I'm afraid that only the low-rank sorcerers in the school of astrology would've survived." Rachel also had a bad feeling.
Samantha sighed softly. After the setbacks in the past three years, she seemed to have begun to accept the collapse of determinism. She believed that the other arcanists of the school of astrology were the same. The world was so cruel that it would not change just because one refused to accept it.
She looked out of the window. The bright sunlight made her squint her eyes, as if she had seen a bright but sad future. "In any case, the discovery of antiparticles is a page that deserves to be remembered in the history of arcana. We have stepped out of the original range and approached the essence more realistically."
"Perhaps, there won't be a more important and profound discovery for a very long time." Rachel also looked at the blue sky and the dazzling sunlight outside. "Judging from the current research progress, after the great leap and development in the previous ten years, arcana seems to have reached a bottleneck. Groundbreaking theories and discoveries still need time to brew."
… …
Passing through layers of 'time and space', Lucien had the same feeling when he cast 'Regather' again. In front of him, there was an area where countless shadows overlapped.
… …
The dazzling light faded away. Ali felt uncomfortable all over his body, but the cool feeling kept him from passing out. He could not wait to look around.
Ignoring the cold and mysterious magic circles and alchemical devices, and not bowing to the arcanists who were observing attentively or turning around, he simply looked out of the transparent 'glass'.
The unimaginable darkness, the bottomless depth, and the boundless vastness hit Ali's heart all of a sudden.
The scorching light spots embedded in the darkness were clear and did not flicker at all, as if they were hanging there forever and would never change.
Subconsciously, Ali looked down, only to see the boundless darkness and the pure, dazzling stars. It made Ali, Anderson, Jane and the rest of them somehow feel that they were insignificant and lonely.
Was this the cosmos?
Compared to it, everything was so insignificant …
Layria, who was next to them, ignored them and gave the journal to Annick, Katrina and the rest of them. "Our teacher has discovered positrons. They are from cosmic rays!"
"Positrons? That's great! "Nun Anning was beaming with joy.
Katrina also said with a smile, "Cosmic rays? It seems that there will be more and more cosmic observatories in the future, and more people will want to use them. "
"Heidi, are you not going to read it?" Seeing that Heidi did not turn around, Layria raised her voice.
Heidi mumbled, "This is the critical moment of the experiment. I always thought that our teacher had discovered positrons a long time ago, or he wouldn't have set up a cosmic observatory for no reason. Ah!"
Her exclamation confused Sprint, Layria and the rest of them. They all looked at her. "Heidi, what's wrong?"
"A trajectory that is different from that of electrons and protons …" Heidi quickly calculated according to the trajectory and stood up abruptly. "The mass is about two hundred times that of electrons. It's a new particle. It's probably the new particle that Ms. Hathaway predicted!"
"What? A new particle? "Layria blurted out. Was there really a new particle?
Ali and the rest of them were woken up by their conversation. They looked at them in confusion, only to see the boundless universe, the pure stars, and Heidi, who was pressing the alchemical device with her hands against the backdrop of them.
A new particle?
Why was it never mentioned in the textbooks?
Had they witnessed the history of magic in person?
… …
His eyes gradually became clear, and Lucien sensed the dazzling brilliance.
Lucien couldn't help but narrow his eyes despite the protection of magic. He saw that an enormous fireball was burning furiously in the boundless brilliance. Despite the protection of the Space Staff and the distance, Lucien still sensed the unimaginably high temperature.
The 'fireball' was somewhat hazy and somewhat detached.
Lucien closed his eyes and slightly raised his head. He exhaled softly and sighed in an ethereal voice.
"Sun …"
The time and space around suddenly changed, as if an illusionary cosmos had arrived.
