Chapter 1704 Bruce Wayne and the Chamber of Secrets (Part 2)
"And the bigger difference is between the styles of the magic world in the two universes." Strange spoke at the right time, interrupting a conversation between a teacher and a student that was full of hints and hidden meanings.
"During this time, I flipped through almost all of your books that record the history of the magic world, and then I found a very strange phenomenon. No matter who the recorder is, what era he is in, or who his contract is, he is very inclined to record every conversation he has with supernatural beings."
"Is there anything wrong with this?" Zatanna spread her hands and said, "If the wizards don't record this, what else can they record?"
"But the history books of the magic world in our universe usually record every fight that the wizards have fought."
Strange held the armrests with both hands and gently exerted force, stood up from the chair and began to pace in front of the screen, attracting everyone's attention.
"What I find very strange is that the wizards in your universe always seem to follow some rules that seem meaningless to me. What I find most incomprehensible is that their first reaction after encountering some powerful beings is to talk to them."
"What's the point of this?" Strange seemed very puzzled. He shook his head slightly and then said, "Are the wizards expecting these strange creatures whose life forms are completely different from humans, have never been humans, and will never understand humans in the future to understand them? How can this be done?"
"Even if we are all human, we will have various conflicts due to differences in race, nationality, and growth environment. People are essentially unable to understand each other. How can anyone want to seek recognition from the devil? ”
“What I cannot understand the most is that the most recorded contents in your history books are ‘a certain wizard asked a certain powerful being for the answer to a certain question’, but this question actually has nothing to do with his own interests, and has nothing to do with the future of mankind. It is more like some useless philosophical thinking, such as ‘where did mankind come from and where is it going’.”
“I have no intention of offending any philosopher present.” Although Strange said this, he still nodded in Schiller’s direction with a little apology, and then said: “But asking a being that is not human at all, where is mankind going, isn’t it a bit too much to think of them?”
“Excuse me, any being that does not belong to this group does not need to, and should not, ask us The future development of the species cannot be expressed, because their so-called understanding is always just imagination rather than empathy. Their opinions are not important, and we do not need their guidance from a high position. "
"But for some reason, the wizards in your universe seem to be very concerned about these issues, the extreme darkness, the extreme light, the origin and destination of mankind, the birth and destruction of the world..."
"I can't arbitrarily say that it is wrong to study these. After all, there must be someone who cares about these things, but in my shallow eyes, the magic world in your universe should not have developed to the point where it has to spend boring time studying these issues."
"Of course I understand what you mean." Constantine took the wine glass from Bruce's hand and said, "You start studying the world before you fill your stomach. The source is indeed absurd, but there are so many such dreamers, and it is not necessarily because they are not influenced by the thinking of angels and demons. "
"Yes, so I suggested at the beginning that you lack a shield to prevent these forces from invading, but if the thinking does not change, even if there is a defense network, there will be people who will break the solid fortress from the inside because of their stubborn thinking. "
"I agree with this point." Zatanna curled her lips and said, "If there were no human traitors, we would not know how quiet we are now."
"Although it is not absolute, I still have to say that it may be difficult to change the thinking of adult magicians." Strange pursed his lips, showing an embarrassed expression and said, "If they insist on saying that they are for the good of mankind, it seems that we are making trouble."
"Isn't this the meaning of establishing this school?" Pamela still said in that slightly indifferent tone: "The previous generation is hopeless, we can only focus on the education of the next generation."
"Yes, but I think there should be a backbone among the next generation who holds similar views to me. "
"You mean we should have a Supreme Sorcerer too?"
Constantine frowned slightly, and Strange nodded slightly reservedly and said: "First of all, he must be a human supremacist. I know that some of my views sound very radical and extreme, but sometimes extremes are necessary. A radical human racist is better than an appeaser who sells out his interests without any bottom line, right?"
Constantine nodded slowly, reluctantly accepting this statement, and then Strange continued: "An idea that can lead the magic world forward is not to resist anything, but to know what to build. This is why I said that the trial is not difficult enough. "
"Perhaps this trial can make them understand not to fear power and not to be influenced by inertial thinking, but at best it only arouses their rebellious psychology, and cannot make them understand what kind of magic world they want to build. "
"Resistance may be the starting point for the establishment of an ideology, but if an ideology only has angry resistance and no more rational and objective creative part, then the action led by it is doomed to fail. After knowing what they should resist, the mages should know that they should create a world that leads mankind to go faster and further."
Schiller raised his eyes and looked at Strange. He gently touched the wall of the cup with his thumb. When Strange turned his head and looked at him, Schiller shook his head and said, "That's what I said. You can never predict what will grow from the seed you planted. If you extend this branch a little further..."
"In this way, the mages will take the happiness of every individual in the rich human society they have established as their happiness, and take the happiness of their development as their happiness, and embark on a path that is completely opposite to the pursuit of endless knowledge and power by themselves, that is, to liberate every human individual's ability to pursue knowledge and power throughout their lives."
Strange said these words very fluently, and then looked at Schiller.
Schiller raised the wine glass in his hand to him in the air.
Constantine covered his forehead and said, "I must not be the first target of these Soviets to eliminate, right? Bruce?"
Bruce was already taking notes with a pen. It seemed that he wanted to write this paragraph into the motto of Wayne College. Constantine could only cut the cigar more desperately.
"From a philosophical point of view, this is almost the only way to solve the inevitable pursuit of extreme self-existence by powerful individuals in human beings after completing self-cultivation." Pamela commented impartially and objectively: "That is to let them shift their attention from themselves to the population to prevent them from feeling that they have lived enough, or that they will never live enough."
"Okay, friends, let's make it clear." Constantine extinguished the cigar in his hand, took a sip of wine, looked up at Strange standing beside him and said, "Do you think there are future Supreme Sorcerers among these three children?"
"It's just that they have more potential than others." Strange stood and took a sip of wine, standing straight and relaxed. At least from the perspective of always maintaining an elegant appearance, he can indeed be called the Supreme Sorcerer.
"In fact, Stephen." Schiller called Strange's name for the first time, and Strange turned his eyes to him, pretending to listen attentively, but in fact his expression was "I want to hear what else you can find wrong."
"I fully understand that you hope that the leaders of the magic world who will bear important responsibilities in the future in this universe will learn enough experience from the universe you are in, especially to learn your style of dealing with the devil."
Strange raised his chin slightly, nodded reservedly, and waited patiently for Schiller's turn, although his body language revealed that no matter how many "buts" you want to say, I will definitely find my reasons.
"But, have you ever considered that they may have altitude sickness?"
"...Ah?"
"I guess the wizards must be accustomed to teleporting directly from the plains without altitude to the top of the Himalayas? Have you ever thought that not everyone has such a super physique to travel back and forth between the plains and the top of the Himalayas five or six times a day?"
Strange opened his mouth wide.
"Where on earth is this?" Harley tried to get up from the ground, but she felt her legs go weak just halfway up, and she fell to the ground with a "bang".
Barry panted hard, his face flushed, and said, "Why do I feel like someone has sucked all the oxygen out of this room? Bruce! Bruce! Are you sure we didn't fall into a trap?"
Bruce, who was already in a bad mental state due to hallucinations, was even more dizzy at this time. He tried to support his body with his arms, but it was useless. He kept rubbing on the surface of the blanket from beginning to end and couldn't even get up.
Facts have proved that the laws of physics are fair to everyone. It doesn't mean that you won't be hit hard by altitude sickness if you are teleported from the flat land of one universe to the top of the Himalayas in another universe. When the physical rules of the two worlds are basically the same, it can be said that whoever comes will fall.
"Oh, my God! Who are you? Why are you in the study of the Supreme Sorcerer?" A slightly sweet girl's voice sounded outside the door, and a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old wearing traditional Indian clothes rushed in.
"Wait, are you the new students that the Supreme Sorcerer said will come to school today?... Let me see, two boys and one girl, the girl is older, oh my god, it's you, what happened to you?"
"I don't know, we are having difficulty breathing, irregular heartbeat, dizziness, and I feel a little nauseous." Harley described her feelings as accurately as possible. She looked out through the window of the Zen room and said, "Don't tell me this is a place above 4,000 meters above sea level."
"It's much higher than that. It's almost 6,000 meters above sea level here."
"Help..."
"Wait a minute, I'll call Master Song, she knows how to deal with this situation, you must hold on a little longer!"
After that, the girl ran away quickly, leaving only three children struggling in place like fish just landed.
Not long after, Master Song, who had gray hair, rushed in, and together with several other wizards, carried the three children to the bed in the lounge, and then waved his staff, and three magic bubbles appeared on their heads.
"Really, I should have a good talk with Yao, why is his apprentice still so ignorant? Doesn't he know that severe altitude sickness can kill people?!"
Strange's face suddenly showed a panic expression.
