Chapter 1674: Inevitable Fate
Everyone present has changed their perception of this mysterious and outrageous girl, from contempt and ridicule at the beginning to suspicion and fear now, because from the conversation just now, everyone can see that she is neither crazy nor stupid, On the contrary, she was calm and intelligent, and a calm and intelligent person who dared to challenge them single-handedly must have something to rely on.
Some people even began to secretly regret participating in this meeting, but it was too late. Now that they have come, they can only bite the bullet and hold on to the end.
"Our fate is doomed?" the Southeast Asian pointed at her and shouted, "You mean, we are all going to die here? Believe it or not, I let the white dragon swallow you before I die?"
The others didn't believe in the predestined story either, and they were as inclined, as Southeast Asians were, to think that she or her elf was going to kill them all here somehow—possibly through toxins.
The elves broke their invisibility one after another, staring at her covetously, and might launch an attack first at any time.
She ignored the tense atmosphere, but stood up relaxed and leisurely, "Don't get me wrong, I mean the literal meaning of fate."
"Fate? I don't believe in fate." Li Yuanfei shook his head, "Even if fate exists, I will use my hands to change fate!"
Everyone agrees with his rhetoric.
She went to the window, pressed the button, and changed the light transmittance of the glass, allowing more sunlight to enter the room.
"Have you heard of Fermat's principle?" She changed the subject abruptly.
No one responded, and everyone was speculating on her intentions.
She stretched out a hand, let the sunlight fall on the ruddy palm, stared at the light spot, and said slowly: "Light is the most widespread and stable substance in the universe. Many of Einstein's theories are based on the constant speed of light. Premise - the speed of light remains constant in all circumstances."
"There is an interesting phenomenon of light, that is, light always travels to extreme values. When light passes through two fixed points in space, the actual path is always the path with the shortest optical distance or time."
Her words are easy to understand, and even people who have not been to school can basically understand her words and gestures.
If you understand it, you understand it, but everyone still doesn't know what she is trying to do by saying these things. Besides, how interesting is this phenomenon?
"Don't you find it strange? Although the speed of light is very, very fast, so fast that people always ignore the speed of light, but light does have speed. When the distance is far enough, the light does not arrive instantly... But you don't think it is strange Why does the light know which path is the shortest before it sets off?"
Some people seem to vaguely understand what she means—light seems to have a will, and it will automatically choose the shortest path. If you think about it in depth, it is really strange. Does light really have a will?
People will choose the shortest path, because people are conscious and can observe visually, but light has no eyes, so how do they know which path is the shortest when starting out? Could it be that the light has already "seeed" where the end point is like a human being before setting off?
Think carefully.
"If you stand at the same starting point as the light and look along the light, you can see the end of the light at a glance, instead of seeing other things." She said, "The same is true for fate, everything is preordained You were here, you were meant to be here, you were meant to be disheartened, you were meant to try in vain, and I would sweep you into the dustbin of history - all when you were born It was doomed before, but even if you knew you would fail today, would you choose not to be born? Sorry, you don’t even have the choice not to be born.”
She looked at their increasingly pale faces sympathetically, "In quantum mechanics, photons are unpredictable. Each of you seems to have free will, but it is limited to the three-dimensional space we live in—if you add The dimension of 'time' is the four-dimensional space. But if you stand in the five-dimensional or higher-dimensional space, quantum mechanics does not apply, just like having the all-seeing eye of God, in front of you, the four-dimensional space Everything will unfold on all timelines at the same time, and you can have a panoramic view of the beginning and end of everything at the same time,
You can see yourself sliding step by step from start to finish without any possibility of change. "
They couldn't understand more and more, but they became more and more afraid, because if she wasn't bluffing and intimidating, then her power was far beyond what they could imagine.
The all-knowing and all-seeing eye was shocking enough to them. Such a powerful eye is actually just a short-term vision of the five-dimensional space with the help of divine power, and can see all the secrets of the four-dimensional space... But her tone It's almost as if she can freely shuttle in the five-dimensional space!
If so, she can appear at any time and any place in the four-dimensional space at any time, and can return to the high-dimensional space at any time.
Ants crawling on a piece of paper cannot imagine the human beings staring at them in the four-dimensional space. Each ant thinks that they have free will, but the unknown world they are trying to explore on paper seems so ridiculous to humans, and they can be seen at a glance. start and end.
Humans in the four-dimensional space can't imagine some kind of power that is staring at them in the fifth-dimensional space. The so-called free will of human beings only exists in the four-dimensional space, and the creatures in the fifth-dimensional space can see people's birth and death at a glance.
The light in the four-dimensional space has tried every possible path, and the light in the four-dimensional space does not know where the end point is before starting, but in the eyes of the creatures in the five-dimensional space, the starting point and the end point are clear at a glance, and the light can only choose, must choose that the shortest path.
In this sense, humans are nothing more than a slightly more advanced type of ants.
She glanced over each of their faces, and she knew their names, their dates of birth down to the minute, everything they've done, everything they're doing, what they're about to do. Everything they do, how and when everyone dies, and...the real names of every elf in their phone.
Mastering the real name of the elf locked the power of the elf.
A few people well educated in physics were the first to understand what she meant. Their legs softened and they fell to the ground with despair on their faces—humans can easily kill ants on paper, and she also They could just as easily be strangled... no, not strangled, but killed in a way neither ants nor humans can imagine.
She turned her head and looked at Li Yuanfei, "Now let me answer your question. Fate can never be changed. Everyone's destiny has been fixed since birth. Everyone's life is to realize their destiny step by step... Today , is an important node in your destiny."
