Three hundred years ago.
Three hundred years, three centuries, is equal to three times the life span of ordinary people. Is there any work that can span three hundred years to satisfy the audience who has entered a new era?
Trish has read about the film "count of Monte Cristo" from the history books. It is said that it caused a strong earthquake like sensation in the Kingdom at that time, and all countries competed to introduce this technology. Mirage has long been a rarity. There are ordinary mirage, sensory simulation mirage, which can make the audience really "immerse themselves" and spiritual mirage. This is a relatively high-end mirage, and the ticket price is relatively expensive. Usually, the audience is allowed to sleep in a specific place to guide their spirit into a fictional spiritual space, There, the audience can freely choose different vision to watch the phantom.
Trish doesn't think that the mirage of 300 years ago can transcend the great fault of the times, cultural differences and the aesthetic judgment of the audience.
"Here we go. No matter how many times we look at this lens, we will feel very comfortable." Esther looked infatuated at the phantom screen.
The sound of the sea breeze blowing, mixed with the high cry of seagulls, half of the sunset into the water and sky, at the junction of the sea covered with a layer of rippling honey, the sea beat the wooden sailboat, the camera then moved up, fixed on a young man, he stood in the bow, his hands against the bar, looking at the distance, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
This is Harvey Adrian!?
Trish recognized the identity of the young man, but felt that she was very different from the textbook.
The plot is just like the novel she read. To her surprise, the count of Monte Cristo, even though it does not have the visual impression of modern phantoms, its extremely comfortable photography style and exquisite use of lens, can always bring her into that world. This phantoms does not have the rigid and frivolous style of early phantoms, and it does not look like the works of that era.
"This long shot has not been cut, and there is no double. Mr. Adrian conquered me with this shot." Esther can't help talking when she's watching movies, as if she's going to pour out her troubles.
Before long, Trish also saw Diana Cromwell, a pretty girl. She didn't know why she always felt familiar when she saw her.
Trish's head came up with a strange idea that Diana looked about the same age as her. If in modern times, Harvey Adrian, who married her, would be punished by the law.
"You are very similar, especially the expression that strangers are not allowed to enter." Beside, Esther chuckled and commented.
"I don't think I'm arrogant," Trish said
Esther looked at her with a smile but not a smile: "to say this is the greatest arrogance."
Two hours is not long or short. Trish has to admit that she is attracted by the oldest illusion, so that she doesn't realize the passage of time. It's really hard for her who doesn't like to watch the illusion for entertainment.
Mirage faithfully restored everything in the novel. No, maybe it is a sublimation.
After watching the phantom, Trish began to ask Esther about the times, and expressed her doubts about her research topic.
"Ah, I'll tell you that for free as a reward for watching the phantom with me." Esther stretched her waist and stood up: "this matter has long been regarded as an open secret, but most people do not have access to understand. One day, the Baron Kingdom suddenly burst into classic novels one after another."
Trish added: "yes, and then there was no information about the work other than the author's name."
"Come with me."
Esther took her to another bookshelf, which was lined with fourteen novels.
"Are those fourteen novels really about Harvey Adrian?"
Esther laughed, took out one of the books, turned to a character's meaningless words and asked, "can you read it?"
Trish shook her head blankly.
"It's very simple. At first glance, this is just a nonsense line of a madman. But if you use the BIVIS code to parse the first and second letters of each word, you will get the corresponding hundred to thousand digits. If the number is a percentage, the first digit represents the work number, the last two digits represent the page number, and if it is a thousand digits, the first two digits represent the book number, The last two are the same number of pages. "
"According to this code, find the hidden clues of each book, put them together, and then convert them into a sequence of star characters, and you will get a sentence [Author: Harvey Adrian]."
Trish was stunned. Under Esther's guidance, she put together all the books and information to get this conclusion. She was stunned and asked, "all the works that made a sensation in the literary world of the Kingdom at that time were created by one person!"
"Not only that, but it was written all night by Harvey Adrian, and it was recorded in Henrietta's count's Secret Diary."
"Why hasn't anyone found out for such a long time?"
"Because no one has found out from the beginning that with the passage of time, every work has a reprinted version, plus some translated versions. It's only a few decades. The works we see are not the first edition. Even if one word is missing or the specifications are different, the clues will only become meaningless words, It is only because the descendants of count Henrietta donated his diary that we can find out the truth. That is to say, these books are the first edition collected later
Fourteen novels were written in one night, each of which was a classic work in the literary world at that time, with a total of more than seven million words. Was it really possible to do it in that era?
Even in today's era, it's very difficult for a caster with a magic net to write a million words in one night. Except for a title level caster, only a caster with this level has such strong mental power that he can create words continuously. However, a caster with such a strong spirit does not necessarily have creative talent.
One person, with one night, promoted the progress of a kingdom's literary world, at least shortened the process of literary development for more than half a century!
absurd!
Ridiculous!
Trish felt that the high wall of her three outlooks was rapidly collapsing, and she doubted whether she was living in a false world.
Esther put the books back, yawned and said: "the conclusion is that Harvey Adrian created these works to help count Henrietta become the president of the literary society at that time. Let alone tell it. After all, it is a scandal of the Henrietta family, which is not a scandal."
Trish sighed, "now that I've come to a conclusion and it's not my personal discovery, I don't have to publish it. It's just, Miss Esther."
"Go ahead, please."
"What kind of person is Harvey Adrian?"
Esther looked around and shook her head. "It's all about him. The mysteries of Harvey Adrian are just like that gorgeous era. Different people can find completely different conclusions. If you want to know, you are welcome here at any time. After all, you are a princess of the Cromwell family. Sooner or later, you will have to come into contact with them."
"My research project is over." Trish stared at the cover of the novel on the bookshelf, not knowing what she was thinking, and her mouth turned up again: "the new subject hasn't been decided yet."
In order to understand that era, she also needs to continue to study what role Harvey Adrian played in that era.
