What is magic?
This is what Irene is most concerned about.
Seberas has been appointed as Erin's magic tutor.
She is also very conscientious.
Without nonsense, seberas quickly took an entry-level textbook from the bookshelf and began to explain it to Yilin.
Yilin has the foundation of "magic" and "crystal grain art", coupled with his ultra-high spiritual attributes, he has palace level understanding ability and soon understood it.
But when he understood, he sighed secretly and finally understood why bathermero Dylan promised so readily this morning.
According to Cerberus, the so-called magic is indeed a mysterious science that can be "learned".
Magic is a phenomenon beyond common sense.
In other words, magic is to make what can be done under common sense happen in another very knowledgeable way.
In the term of magician, there is also the concept of "magic".
Yilin was excited as soon as he heard it.
Magicians use "unconventional" means to complete what "humans can accomplish".
This is magic.
Give a simple example.
——Make a fire.
Modern technology, a lighter, a natural gas stove, or other ignition equipment, can be easily completed.
The magician does not use modern technology to complete this action.
Does that sound like taking off your pants and farting?
Indeed.
At least, Erin sounds like.
And "what human beings can never accomplish" is called "magic".
The concept of magic is something that neither humans nor magicians can accomplish.
Speaking of magic, Yilin thought of the supreme mage again.
The supreme mage uses serious magic.
But his magic, according to his theory, is really not what human beings can complete. The supreme mage must communicate with other non-human leaders and use their power to complete "magic".
It took a little time for Yilin to literally understand the essence of "magic".
"It's a science. Well, sure enough, believe in science."
Elaine understood.
For a moment, as a big engineer, he drew inferences from one instance and talked with seberas in the library.
Seberas and Yilin were chatting, and there were some inexplicable changes in their eyes.
For seberas, ten minutes ago, Elin, an outsider who knew nothing about "magic", had completed the "Introductory Education" of magic in less than an hour. This demon level understanding ability made seberas doubt several times. She doubted whether Yilin was a spy sent by wandering Shanghai.
But it's impossible.
Magicians have the means to identify each other. It is a unique "smell" that can hardly be hidden.
The times are advancing.
The definitions of "magic" and "magic" are constantly changing with the passage of time.
Take "making a fire" as an example.
In the ancient stone age, when mankind had not mastered "fire", making fire was a kind of magic. Because, in the eyes of primitive people at that time, this was "something that human beings could never accomplish".
Now, it has become a kind of "magic".
Another example is to destroy a mountain. In ancient times, this powerful magic was also regarded as "magic", but with the development of science and technology, mystery declined, human thermal weapons emerged one after another, and even when the nuclear bomb was invented, the pure destructive power was no longer the category of "magic".
Today's era.
There are fewer and fewer things that can be called "magic".
After mastering the simple definition of magic.
Of course, get to the point.
"I recognize your savvy." When seberas talked about the subject, she sighed. She hesitated for a moment, but she turned around and took off her clothes in front of Yilin.
Yilin stared at it carefully.
He was not foolish enough to think that seberas suddenly took a wind and greedy for his body.
Sure enough, on the white back exposed by seberas, a complex tattoo almost filled the back skin was reflected in Yilin's eyes.
"This is' magic engraving '. Magic is not a technology that one generation can study thoroughly and use freely. Magic is the technology and knowledge that generations of magicians pass on their research, understanding and experience to the next generation in this way."
"In addition, to become a magician, you must have excellent blood lineage, excellent magic circuit in your body and huge knowledge reserve. None of these three points is indispensable. In a short time, even if you know what magic is, you can't get started successfully."
Seberas calmly put on his tuxedo and turned around as if nothing had happened. He poured a basin of cold water on Yilin.
I don't know if it's Irene's illusion. When seberas said this, there was a trace of irony in his words.
Elaine doesn't mind.
He rubbed his palms, but his expression was unusually calm: "it doesn't matter. Even if he can't learn, he may find it helpful to find the treasure."
Seberas was stunned. She never expected that this despicable foreigner would be so interested in that matter. Seberas lowered his head, clenched his fist and remained silent.
"Can I read all these books?"
Yilin pointed to the vast sea of books and asked.
"Yes."
Cerberus replied, "but I remind you that every book is equipped with relevant magic. I know 'you' have a 'space' that can hide anything. But once any book disappears from the world, it will disturb the clock tower."
"The means of anti-theft? Ha ha, I see. Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person. I'll read the book first, and I'll find you if there's a problem."
Seberas's strange eyes looked up and down at Yilin several times. Seeing that Yilin's eyes were sincere, he left the place silently.
After Cerberus left.
Yilin repressed the excitement for a long time and finally floated on his face.
On the surface, the room is full of books.
But in Yilin's eyes, these are all valuable knowledge and "treasure" that can't be measured by any goods.
"I'm burning."
Yilin smiled and rushed to the bookshelf like a hungry wolf.
……
In the clock tower, there are many students who are obsessed with academic research.
They are called magician apprentices.
Apprentices span a wide range of ages.
The youngest is not yet an adult.
The biggest one even has white hair. When he sees it, he will step into the coffin with a full stomach of knowledge.
The library is an open area.
Every apprentice is eligible to enter the library.
But usually, there won't be too many people gathering.
Gradually, many people found a strange thing.
In the library, I don't know when it began, there was a strange man.
This strange man doesn't wear magician's clothes.
And no attendants.
There is no "taste" of a magician.
But he sat at the corner of the spiral ladder every day, with a stack of profound ancient magic books piled in front of him, watching with interest.
Many times, when some veteran magician apprentices passed by the strange man, they couldn't help asking: can you understand?
But whenever the magician apprentice who wanted to ask questions saw the strange man's face, he didn't know why. As soon as his face changed, he hurried around as if he didn't see it.
Until someone reported it to seberas.
The identity of the freak was confirmed: he was the "special servant" of seberas, approved by the monarch bathymero, and came here to read and gain insight.
"It was to make the boring and ordinary life so serious, intoxicated and focused because he finally got the boasting capital after coming to the magician's holy land Clock Tower!"
Someone understands.
The above words, abbreviation - don't know how to pretend.
……
Yilin is concentrating on reading.
He is deaf to things outside the window.
Three days have passed in the twinkling of an eye.
In three days,
He never left the library even one step.
Start work day and night.
On the way, seberas seemed to wonder if Irene had died suddenly in the library and came to have a look.
With a dark face, she cleaned the peel, melon seed shell and beverage cup near the spiral corridor.
Finally, she saw that Yilin was really focused, shook her head secretly, and left silently without interruption.
She sees too many such people.
Magician is not a profession that can succeed as long as you "know", "work hard", "insist" and "struggle".
Soon, he will run into a wall and notice the huge gap between magicians and non magicians.
Yilin really was fascinated.
On several occasions, he even found it when seberas went beyond the ten steps.
Seeing seberas clenching his teeth, clenching his fist and silently cleaning the garbage for himself, Yilin closed his eyes every time and pretended not to find it.
After three days of forced reading and bitter flushing, Yilin has a further understanding of "magic".
"Every human has the potential to become a magician. Hmm? What if it's not a human? Can a dog do it?"
Yilin pointed to one of the sentences in a book on the magician's introduction to the earth. It seemed that there was something wrong.
Not rigorous enough.
forget it.
It doesn't matter.
Knowledge and insight are closely related.
Perhaps the magician who wrote this book has never seen a dog who still holds a tablet computer to watch animal world when going to the bathroom, or a dog who can bring a baby. Yilin gently closed the book on magicians from introduction to earth and looked at the author's name - David Copperfield.
"But the above is not wrong. Everyone has the potential to become a magician."
Erin nodded.
According to the magician's theory, everyone has a "origin".
Everyone's origin determines the magician's potential and probably determines the magician's "magic attribute". Generally speaking, the attributes of magicians can be divided into: ground, water, fire, wind and air. There are also two rare attributes: imaginary and none.
The first five have similar descriptions in many magic classics. But most magic classics about "imaginary number" and "nothing" are vague, and Yilin can't fully understand them.
Among them, a mathematician and magician named Descartes imagined and speculated on "imaginary number" and "nothing".
"Imaginary number attribute" refers to something that exists in theory but does not exist in practice.
"No attribute" refers to something that does not exist in theory but actually exists.
How complicated!
This ethereal conjecture is more inclined to idealism theory, which is the reason why Yilin can't fully understand these two attributes.
"Magic is similar to crystallography and even magic."
"The three most basic elements of Magic: base plate, technique and magic circuit."
"The so-called base plate is similar to the most basic language environment of magic, which includes all cultures, religions, history and languages in the world. These environments constitute magic itself. No wonder the magician Association once had branches all over the world, because language itself can not become an obstacle to magic, and different languages make magic more possible."
"In other words, everything can be magic? Well, maybe our 'ancient martial arts' are also a kind of' magic 'in the eyes of magicians."
Yilin silently recalled the power of the enemy's fist.
If Mo Rendi comes here and throws a few punches at these buildings, will this group of magicians be shocked and call the great magician Mo Rendi to bring people?
"The technique is better understood. It is similar to the 'program' compiled in advance. Different techniques play different roles in the same language environment. This is similar to 'crystal grain technique' and 'magic'."
As for the third element, magic circuit, it was an eye opener for Yilin.
In crystallography, a circuit can be simply understood as a channel of energy. It is completed with various lines and nodes.
But in magic, the magic circuit is "an organ" existing in the magician's body. This organ, similar to blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic vessels, circulates inside the body. Among them, it is precisely because of the magic circuit that seberas firmly believes that Irene can't learn magic in a short time.
Because the magic circuit is the essence and secret of the magician. Different magic families have techniques for cultivating magic circuits, such as drugs. These techniques are secret and undeclared. It may take years, decades, or even generations of cumulative superposition to cultivate a magician's magic circuit.
This is why some magician families do not look at blood, but only talent. Some magician families even take the initiative to send their beautiful daughter to the door because they have some magic circuit talent, try every means to conceive the blood of the other family, and then secretly bring it back.
Or, if you see someone with talent on the roadside, you can take a pat on the forehead, take it back as an adopted son, and treat it as an married son.
In the world of magicians, it doesn't matter whether they are green or not, whether they are their own children or not, but whether they have the talent to become magicians.
Magician, what a strange group of people.
Even if the blood can't be passed on, we should try to pass on the knowledge. It's difficult for Yilin to understand this almost morbid persistence. What in the end has attracted countless magicians, such as moths to the fire and actively seeking green 100 times in more than 2000 years?
The fourth night.
The spirit is highly concentrated, even the liver for 72 hours, Rao Shilin also can't stand it.
Yilin yawned. It was late at night. He leaned against the fence of the spiral ladder and closed his eyes.
He has been immersed in the vast ocean of knowledge.
Although Yilin could not master the subject technology of magic, he opened a new door.
The limitation of magic is more outrageous than crystallography, but from it, Yilin vaguely seems to have caught a certain law.
Yilin has a hunch that as long as he can fully understand the true meaning of "magic", the completion of his "free method" will be further.
Yilin's free method was born out of crystallography and advanced in magic, but the theories involved were limited by Yilin's knowledge and could not be completely completed. This is perhaps the most important reason why Yilin's "free law" has not been evaluated as a [strengthening].
Because of this "Freedom Law" itself, even Yilin still has doubts and a little knowledge, how can he be recognized by the tower?
"There's not enough time."
Yilin rubbed her eyes and took out a Book of interest from the shelf.
"Yo? How thick," new edition of astrology "? The author is barthemero g. Dylan, the monarch. Barthemero? The child? Isn't he in charge of 'all basic subjects'?"
Yilin was curious and opened the obscure book of heaven.
Looking at, Yilin's eyelids began to fight.
Tired, hard to understand, boring and boring, all kinds of reasons made Yilin doze off.
"Yes!"
While dozing, Yilin suddenly remembered a kind of magic.
A kind of magic that he had already mastered, but had never had a chance to use on himself.
"Try it."
In one breath, Yilin took out more than 50 heavenly books he had read but didn't understand. He chose the most boring page and spread it out step by step on the stairs.
After completing this "feat", Yilin nodded with satisfaction and put on the [apprentice hanging ring] on his index finger and middle finger while there was no one around.
A circle of magic texture appeared on the wrist. Then, Yilin slapped himself on the chest.
Man, be cruel to yourself!
Bang.
At present, the world tends to be static.
"Soul out of body!"
