Chapter 468 More Terrifying Beasts
Gawain didn't expect Rebecca to prepare a second project for this experiment, but after hearing the words "randomly selected" by the other party, he immediately vaguely guessed what the girl was thinking.
"I want to test it more accurately to see how the Mind Stamp works," Rebecca explained, pointing to the devices the researchers were installing on the experimental bench, "This is a modified Rune Trigger - It has a constantly rotating disc with teeth inside it, when the button is pressed, the disc makes contact with a small platform, and only when the teeth on the disc are turned into place , the correct magic circuit will be established between the tooth and the platform - the whole device is closed, in other words, the person who presses the button has no idea what the result will be after his operation, and his mental choice is limited to whether or not he pressed it. button, regardless of whether the system is activated..."
Amber opened her mouth wide and looked at Rebecca in astonishment. She finally understood something, so she couldn't help but exclaimed: "You guys who are doing research...how do your brains grow?!"
Gawain was also attracted by the process designed by Rebecca. The process itself did not exceed his imagination, but Roe Deer's ideas were always surprising. He touched his chin and said while thinking: "The rotating The toothed disc is actually a pseudo-random system, but the focus of this system is not on randomness, but on the tester..."
"Yes, it's because the tester 'doesn't know the result'," Rebecca nodded, "I want to know, when the tester himself doesn't know whether he will disobey the gods, does the mind seal still work, or just as long as Testers have doubts about their beliefs about their behavior, which will cause a stamp..."
Pittman, who had never spoken, was also intrigued by this exquisite "random selection" experiment. This old Druid, who had never been a positive person, also showed the researcher's eager and serious look on his face. While pinching the beard under his chin, he circled the experimental bench, and nodded as he turned: "Ingenious... ingenious... In this way, there should only be three different results. The first is that in the inverse array system. The Holy Light substrate can be activated, while the substrate that is directly powered by the tester will not be activated. The second is that both substrates are activated, and the third is that both substrates are not activated - corresponding to the random selection. There are three situations in which the Mind Stamp is valid, the Mind Stamp is invalid, and the card teeth are not connected."
Amber thought about it for a while, and a question came up: "Then what if the substrate directly powered by the tester is activated, but the substrate connected to the inverter array is not activated?"
The laboratory suddenly became quiet, and several eyes fell on Amber at the same time, causing the half-elf lady to shrink her neck subconsciously. Pittman squeezed his beard fiercely, and after a long silence, he said, "That means that We have all been played by the God of Light!"
"Let's start," Gao Wen took a long breath and nodded slightly to Cohen Bell in front of the experimental bench, "Make a random selection."
The young researcher bowed slightly solemnly, then adjusted his breathing and turned to the direction of the experimental bench.
All the irrelevant personnel stepped aside and paid close attention to the situation on the experimental bench, while Cohen Bell put his finger on the large modified "Rune Trigger" like a rectangular iron box, he silently He counted a few beats in his heart, then poured magic into the copper button and pressed it hard.
There was a clicking sound from the "Random Selection" device, and after a while, the two rune substrates on the test bench did not respond.
Carmel stepped forward to inspect the device, and then announced the results: "The first test,
Invalid connection, start the second test. "
Cohen Bell injected magic into the rune trigger again, then pressed the button.
In a moment of suffocating waiting, under the watchful eyes of the public, the two rune substrates on the test bench lit up at the same time, and a stable holy light was generated!
There were several inhalation sounds in the laboratory, and Carmel took a step forward and confirmed that the state of the experimental device was normal. All samples are on!"
Gawain suppressed his excitement and ordered as calmly as possible: "Take the third test."
"...The third test, the samples are all on!"
"...Fourth test, invalid connection..."
"...The fifth test, the samples are all bright!!"
The young mage Cohen activated the rune trigger in front of him again and again, his eyes lit up, as if he was immersed in some kind of inexplicable excitement, until the two rune boards used for the test fell into a state of waste energy overload. Only then did he stop at Carmel's order.
There was silence in the laboratory, only the low humming from various magic devices and laboratory defense systems echoed in a low voice in the frozen air. Carmel floated quietly in front of the experimental bench, watching the gradual change in the air. The two rune boards that had dimmed, after a long time, he raised his head, and the two dots of light embedded in the arcane cloud flickered and slowly swept across the room.
He seemed to see what it looked like in the past. He saw the emblem of the Gondor Empire hanging on the wall, the energy conduits in the laboratory were up and down, and the colleagues in the imperial magician's robes were standing on the experimental benches. Before, those people turned their heads, they smiled and congratulated them here.
Carmel raised his hands, and his voice echoed throughout the lab: "Rebels, cheers! We've opened another door!"
Cheers really came from all directions, and the vision of the past in Carmel's eyes collapsed. He saw the familiar laboratory laying a hive-like modern magic net, and standing around was wearing white The short-robed researcher, the blurred faces faded away in his sight, and the new faces became clearer and clearer in his sight.
Carmel looked at Gawain: "Sorry, lord, I'm a little rude."
"It's alright, this is a moment worthy of gaffe," Gawain praised without hesitation, looking at every researcher here approvingly, "every one of you is a good one - we should celebrate, we just Breaking through the authority of God! We have proved with facts that even the so-called 'magic magic' can be explained and controlled by logic and technology!"
Wright stood silently on the sidelines, watching the most intelligent people in the land complete the experiment - no thrilling sights, no crowds, just a dozen researchers and a few witnesses and the two small groups of holy lights on the test bench, but in these seemingly ordinary two hours, the significance of what happened here is no less than any event in the past history that human beings have set off in the name of God. war!
This is indeed a war, without swords, swords and shadows, and without blood and rain, but it means the first successful resistance of mortals against God.
"Now we can confirm that the psychic seal is affected by 'self-cognition'," Carmel left the experimental bench and came to Gawain and said, "In the case of random selection, the testers are not sure what their operations will do. As a result, even if he knew that his behavior might be a 'disobedient act', the mind seal did not take effect; at the same time, we also proved through the first experiment that even if the mind seal was effective, the magic device based on purely mechanical principles could not work. Affected by it, although the process of 'pulling the trigger' involves the participation of the mind, and it does cause the stamp, the effect of the stamp can be isolated by technical means..."
At this time, Pittman came over, the little old man was still licking his thinning beard, with a thoughtful look on his face: "Actually, what I'm most curious about is another point: the mind stamp should be used for testing. However, after the tester injected magic power into the rune substrate, how could the magic power that has been separated from the tester dissipate out of thin air? Could it be that the magic power that has been separated from the human body still has 'thoughts' remaining? They feel that they should not Existed, so it took the initiative to disintegrate?"
When Carmel listened to Pittman's words, he couldn't help but also nodded slightly: This is indeed a confusing phenomenon. It is understandable that the tester himself is unable to release divine magic due to the influence of the mind seal, but the tester uses the experimental device to When releasing magic power, it needs to leave the body and enter another system to run. In other words, when using the experimental device, the "magic power operation" is a fact that has already happened. This fact has happened... but because the testers themselves The psychic seal of the soul dissipated out of thin air, why is this?
Looking at Carmel and Pittman who were in confusion and thinking, Gawain's mind was running fast. This was the first time he felt that his brain power was not keeping up with the local knowledge of this world - the mind The phenomenon of steel stamping really reminded him of the observer effect, because of the feature that "the established facts that have happened are rewritten by the influence of the observer", he couldn't help but think so, but the effect of the mental stamp was known to him. The "observer effect" is not exactly the same. It not only occurs in the macro world, but also reflects a higher idealism: the tester's cognition of his own behavior is actually the first condition to determine whether the phenomenon occurs! ?
There are so many incredible places in this world...
And the difference between the two worlds is more than that: on Earth, everything related to quantum theory caused violent turmoil in the scientific community at the beginning of its appearance. in this world……
Carmel and Pittman were just baffled by the phenomenon, their mentality seemed unaffected at all.
The reason is very simple: in the field of magic, there are too many things that go against common sense, the world has not yet built that rock-solid "magic building", and researchers still don't know the horror of the complete subversion of the three views...
Gawain looked away from the two researchers, and sighed slightly in his heart: Perhaps, another beast was released by him, and this beast... maybe even more terrifying than "supernatural power belongs to mortals"...
His thoughts gradually dispersed, from the magic power that seemed to dissipate itself due to the influence of the observer, to the mental seal that was suspected of being a mind lock, from the essence of gods to the connection between people and gods, his thoughts became more and more relaxed. far away, until a voice suddenly sounded in his mind:
"...I hope you...are prepared to face..."
Gao Wen woke up in horror, he raised his head suddenly, and looked in the direction of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the laboratory.
His sight crossed the energy barrier of the fortress of disobedience, the chaotic darkness in the shadow world, the gravel and debris floating in the air, and stared at the corpse of the giant deer Amorn.
(It's time to push the book again! The title of the book is "Drinking This Bowl of Mengpo Soup", I just copied the introduction:
Ye Bei is a Mr. Yin and Yang, the kind without a business license.
Relying on the innate mysterious jade pendant, he cooked a bowl of Meng Po soup and gave psychological counseling (physics) to all kinds of monsters.
Due to professional reasons, he often tried frantically on the edge of life and death, until one day, Ye Bei found that he could not die...
Let me tell you, supernatural beings look really exciting, especially when you read it alone. Although the number of words is still small, it feels like it has great potential.
Anyway, when the milk died, it was a supernatural phenomenon. )
