Chapter 692 Serious Nonsense

The students sat there contentedly, stroking their bellies as the food and wine were enough.

Duran stood up and said, "Everyone take a break first and let the teachers from Hogwarts perform for everyone." He asked a young teacher in black robes to stand up.

The young teacher nodded slightly like a gentleman, then took out the ten-inch, white wand from the sleeve of his robe, and tapped it a few times in the air, "The dinner plate is empty!"

All the plates on the table were cleared, leaving the students stunned.

"My mother will go crazy when she sees this. She hates washing dishes. It would be great if she learned this magic."

But there are also keen students, such as Kuroko Shirai, who saw something different, "Mr. Duran, what is the stick in the teacher's hand?"

"That's not a stick, it's a wand, a medium used by magicians to cast spells. This teacher's wand is made from the horn of a unicorn, which can double the power of his magic. However, the principles of magic are too complicated, and it is difficult to Explain it clearly to you.”

"This is unscientific. How could such an unscientific thing happen?" Shirai Kuroko wondered.

"Of course it's science. Magic is science. In other words, science is also magic." Duran smiled, "Do you think that if ancient people hundreds of thousands of years ago saw modern cars, airplanes, mobile phones and computers, would they also think it was magic?"

Everyone nodded, for example, the mythical sound transmission across thousands of miles has been realized on modern mobile phones. The clairvoyants in myth also have cameras. Various modern technologies would undoubtedly be like magic in primitive societies.

However, what Duran meant was difficult for smart students to accept, because Academy City represents the world's most cutting-edge technology, but there are actually things that exceed Academy City's technological level. It's like the champion becomes the runner-up.

"Since it's science, please explain it to us." Misaka Mikoto said suddenly.

As expected of an electric shock user, he has such a bad temper.

Kamijou Touma said in his heart that the technology his uncle mastered was indeed extremely powerful, far beyond Academy City. He had barely learned anything from elementary school to college, so when Duran said magic was science, Touma would not doubt it. I'm afraid the principle is really difficult to understand.

The students looked at Duran, expecting him to speak.

Dulan pressed his hand and said, "Then let me explain a little bit. Do you know the butterfly effect?"

Many students nodded, but Index shook her head desperately to express her ignorance.

Kamijou Touma covered his face, having a new understanding of the backwardness of English Puritanism.

"Touma, please explain." For such a simple question, Duran didn't need to explain it himself. He pointed to Touma to explain it.

Kamijou stood up and said, "Then let me briefly explain that the butterfly effect is a concept proposed by famous meteorologists in the 1970s. A butterfly in the Amazon rainforest flaps its wings a few times, which can cause panic in North America for a period of time. A tornado. Meteorologists' original purpose was to explain that the global air system is a whole, and small changes at any point can cause violent reactions elsewhere."

Duran applauded. Sure enough, Kamijou had been taught both civil and military skills. "Very good. Touma said it very well. Let me give you two more examples." "There is a fable in Europe. The blacksmith broke a horseshoe nail, and the bad horse The nails broke a war horse, a war horse died, a messenger was injured, a messenger was injured, a piece of information was missed, a piece of information was missed, a war was lost, a war was lost, the whole campaign was lost. , lose the whole battle and lose a country. A bad horse will destroy the country in the end, just like the wings of a butterfly and a tornado."

"There is also a story recorded in the ancient Chinese book "Lu Shi Chun Qiu". It tells that two girls were playing games on the border between Wu and Chu. The girl from Chu trampled and injured the girl from Wu. Chu The girl's parents went to the Wu State to argue with the girl's parents. The head of the Wu State made rude remarks and was killed by the head of the Chu State. The friends and family of the Wu parents went to the Chu State and killed the girl's family in revenge. The local officials of the Chu State were furious and rushed into Wu with their soldiers. The king of Wu State killed all the local Wu people. After hearing this, the king of Wu State was furious. He sent troops to Chu State to occupy their land and plunder the food before returning. After that, Wu State and Chu State had a border war that lasted for several years. The girl's game develops into a war between the two countries, which seems to be driven by forces like wings and tornadoes."

The next step is to get to the point. Duran said: "Is there a force of mutual influence between things and things, and between people?"

Everyone shook their heads, showing doubts. There seems to be a connection here, and there is an elusive force, but does that connection really exist?

In everyone's eyes, it seems to be just an accident, and accident itself is unscientific. Because science must be something that can be repeated according to specific conditions. The emphasis on accident is nothing more than a magic stick.

They have never heard of a witch named Yu Jie whose mantra is, ‘There are no accidents in this world, only necessity. ’

And Dulan's magic research also achieved a breakthrough because of this sentence and found the key to changing the world: "Based on the butterfly effect, I call this invisible force that affects each other the butterfly hidden force. You can't see or touch it. Just like your superpowers, magic can be stimulated by specific unknown energy waves.”

"I don't believe it." Index cannot accept the scientific explanation of magic. In her opinion, Duran has forcibly explained fatalism and forced fatalism into a scientific view that can be changed.

"Whether you believe it or not, the principle of magic is like this." Duran smiled.

Duran proved the existence of the butterfly hidden power, and it seems that he can interfere with the future in the direction he expected with a wave of his hand, but it is not the case.

Because there are too many factors affecting the future, Duran can't control it at all. He is just playing magic now, which is much simpler than controlling the future. The magician's wand is actually a living biological computer, which adjusts the energy fluctuations according to the magician's spell, and can activate magic when the magic requirements are met. This makes up for the shortcomings of the magicians in this world who doodle.

Using a magic wand instead of runes is like using a calculator instead of an abacus.

The most important thing about the magic wand is the core inside, and these things are all made by Duran himself. Of course, he has made many types, covering various types, suitable for all kinds of people.

These students still think this is unscientific, and there is no basis for the principle of magic. Duran also knows this situation, so there is no magic principle class in the magic school, just teach magic. If you are interested, you can go to the library to read his unpublished masterpieces, such as "The Basic Principles of Magic", "The Extension of Magic", "The Scientific Quantity of Magic", "Magic and Science", "Cause and Effect in Magic", "Magic Atlas", "A Preliminary Study on the Hidden Power of Butterflies", "A Further Study on the Hidden Power of Butterflies", "Scientific Destiny and Hidden Power of Butterflies", etc. Anyway, Duran has recorded all his research results.

If all these books are thoroughly studied, the people on Earth can even influence the operation of the entire universe. Then humans will be awesome.
