Chapter 2832 Execution

John Andre, a young and handsome Feizhen officer of noble birth, seemed to have secretly made up his mind to die from the moment he stepped into the courtroom. Could it be that he wanted to denounce the hypocrisy of the independent revolution leaders face to face? Have a good mouth?

He scolded to his heart's content, but at the cost of his young life, is it worth it?

No one knows the answers to these questions.

Before his execution, John Andre wrote a personal letter to George Vassar. First, he apologized for his attempt to kidnap the other party, and then asked Vassar to give him the honor of being shot. He died like a soldier, not a spy. Hanged on the gallows like that.

After receiving this letter, George Vassar again showed generosity, and granted John Andre's dying wish.

On August 22, John Andre was taken to the execution ground and executed by shooting. He became the highest-ranking Fijian officer publicly executed by the Continental Army since the start of the War of Independence.

A reporter who came to the execution site in person later truthfully recorded John Andre’s shocking cry before his execution:

"Those who killed me, thank you for helping me obtain immortality!"

...

At the dinner at the Fort Colas embassy, ​​when Joan heard the old man Franklin tell the details of John Andre's trial and execution, he couldn't help being moved.

Deep down in his heart, he even felt a bit of remorse for arresting Andre in the first place.

This momentary throbbing will not completely change Joan's view of Andre.

After all, John Andre was a spy, and it was not unjust for him to instigate Benedict Laval and plot the assassination of George Vassar.

What's more, this Feizhen officer who died generously has obtained the "immortal" reputation he longed for after his death.

The body of John Andre was sent back to Fiji, and was solemnly mourned by people from all walks of life, including His Majesty the King and the cabinet ministers. Finally, he was buried in the famous West End Cathedral in Avalon as a "war hero". It's a great shame and honor, and I got my wish.

...

Using "Spell-free material" and transformation magic, Joan had done a series of experiments before and came to some valuable conclusions.

But he was not satisfied with this, and subsequently designed a set of experiments, trying to artificially create a "magic-free space" in an experimental environment, to verify whether creatures in a non-magic environment can communicate with demons through channels other than the magic net. The casters in the environment exchange information.

The core tool of this group of experiments is the "anti-magic field".

Joan used the "anti-magic field" to completely shield the large petri dish where the population of "Vida Plasma Monster" was located.

After this operation, according to the conclusions drawn from the previous experiment, there are no other "wild" plasma monsters in the magic net service area.

Next, Qiao An cast transformation magic, combined with "casting and exempting materials", trying to turn into a plasma monster, but ended in failure as expected.

In the second step of the experiment, Joan removed half of the randomly selected plasma monsters from the anti-magic field, placed them in an environment where the magic net was unblocked, and tried to transform again.

This time he successfully turned into a plasma monster, and the body data after transformation is only the average value of this kind of creature in a demonic environment, but has nothing to do with a plasma monster in a non-magic environment.

It can be seen that only creatures in the service area of ​​the magic net can be collected by the magic net, while the same kind of creatures included in the non-magic environment will be ignored by the magic net and will no longer be provided—more precisely, they cannot be collected ——Related information, equivalent to collective death.

It's like when we say that someone is "no news", even if they are biologically alive, they are sociologically dead.

Does this interesting experimental result show that the biological information collected and stored by the magic net is not a permanent archive, but a form similar to a "temporary certificate".

The biological information stored by the magic net will be updated in real time with the evolution of the species. When the species becomes extinct or leaves the magic net service area, the magic net will delete its relevant information from its own server.

If a spellcaster tries to call this part of the species information with the "Spellcasting Material Free" at this time, he will receive the feedback of "the relevant data does not exist", and then he will not be able to anchor the deformation target, resulting in the failure of the deformation?

If the above conjecture is true, Qiao An has to admit that he probably overestimated the storage capacity of the magic net before.

The magic web is probably not a super archive with unlimited storage capacity, including all information since the creation of the universe, but a reservoir with limited capacity. Get rid of information that is judged to be useless or of little use.

A species that has been physically extinct, or has left the service area of ​​the magic net, its relevant information is judged by the magic net as "garbage" that can be discarded.

Is the truth really like this?

Joan felt that there was at least one huge loophole in this inference, which was to deny the value of archaeology.

Conversely, as long as you can still dig out the bones of extinct ancient creatures from the depths of the earth, and cast spells to transform into that creature, you can draw a beautiful counterexample and overthrow the above inference to the ground!

This falsification experiment is simple to say, but it is a little troublesome to implement.

For example, you discover a mysterious fossil through archaeology, but you can’t find relevant records in historical documents—this is a necessary condition, because any information that is recorded in books must be a subset of the huge database of the magic net .

You have searched all over the world, but you can’t find a creature that corresponds to the fossil. You might as well name it “Nothingness Beast”, so can it be judged based on this that this creature has become extinct in all planes of the multiverse?

Not always.

It is simply unrealistic to try to prove that a certain species is extinct through on-the-spot investigation. Unless you really go to all corners of all planes, it is impossible to say whether there is a living "nothing beast" hidden in a certain corner .

The only feasible verification method is to use the magic net to try to simulate the living "nothing beast" by using "casting without materials" + transformation magic.

If it fails, it means that this creature is at least extinct in the magic net service area, which is very reasonable.

On the contrary, if the transformation is successful...then you are in big trouble!

The trouble is that you cannot properly attribute the results of this experiment.

That's right, you conjured the "Zixu Wuyou Beast", but you can't be sure whether this is because the magic net did not delete the information before the "Zixu Wuyou Beast" went extinct, or this creature was not extinct at all.
