Chapter 579: OK, OK, It’s Science
What shocked Dr. Galio the most was not whether the appearance of the melting effect would change with the observer's cognition.
Rather, the observer could affect reality by simply changing the vague concept of melee and ranged weapons.
This inevitably made Galio think about a question: what if humans had defined all weapons longer than 20 cm as ranged and all weapons shorter than 20 cm as melee?
These things are what humans have agreed upon since civilization.
It is not a universal law, but is only defined by humans for their own convenience.
If the thumb of Homo sapiens could not be bent, then humans would not be able to use weapons that were too heavy and would have to use their feet. Perhaps now, humans would consider all weapons held in their hands as ranged and weapons held in their feet as melee.
So when these concepts are so vague, will the melting effect still be realized?
What if humans have no idea of dividing melee and ranged weapons at all? Will the melting effect still appear?
Sister You seemed to have anticipated the question raised by Galio.
"This is exactly what we think of as supernatural objects."
"It is precisely because humans divide them this way that its characteristics are like this. Melee and ranged are obviously defined by humans, so it is afraid that it will violate the melee triggering law in the eyes of humans."
After listening to this, Galio immediately asked: "What if it is an observer who has no concept of melee and ranged at all? Or suppose that all humans, including you, no longer have the concept of melee and ranged in their hearts?"
Sister You only answered this question that troubled Galio with one sentence.
"Stone, no."
"I see, I understand." Galio nodded.
He had brought in the observer effect at the quantum level before, thinking that it was all determined by human certainty.
In fact, it is not the case. It is the 'melee concept' that determines all this, and humans are just observation tools of the melee concept.
If humans do not have this melee concept, then they will not become observers. Because the experiment just now showed that the wall observer, table observer, and floor observer did not affect the experimental results.
Only humans affected the experimental results because only humans at the scene had such a concept, not because humans have brains.
The criterion is not whether it is alive or not, not whether it is intelligent or not, but for the Fusion Effect, only observers who have the concept of close combat and long-range weapons are qualified to be observers.
In other words, if all human beings, or all beings that can think, have no concept of close combat and long-range weapons, including the holder.
Then the file description of the Fusion Effect will be "written as": Any weapon held by the Valkyrie will have the Fusion Effect.
So at this time, we can think about what the concept of weapons is? If all human beings, or all beings that can think, have no distinction between weapons and tools, or simply have no distinction between weapons and natural creations?
Then can the file description of the Fusion Effect be "written as": Any object held by the Valkyrie will have the Fusion Effect.
Dr. Galio paced and pondered repeatedly, and suddenly said: "Then what about the concept of 'holding'? Can it be changed?"
"No... because 'holding' is not an observed variable. The variable is the point of 'what weapon', and the others are objectively locked and have nothing to do with the observer." Sister You said.
"You call this thing a containment object? Amazing... Really amazing..." Dr. Galio murmured, immersed in thinking.
The members found that Dr. Galio and other scientists did not collapse because of this.
On the contrary, they aroused great interest.
"This should reveal a certain natural law, just like quantum mechanics. Perhaps this will be an opportunity to establish a subversive science..." Dr. Galio said excitedly.
The members looked at each other. Here they are. As expected, they are going to start studying the scientific principles of containment objects.
In fact, this is not impossible, but most scientists use the wrong ideas and are still using the old things to contain containment objects, which is not displayed.
Sister You couldn't help but say: "I must remind you that containment objects cannot be integrated into human current science. Its characteristics are not universal, it is not physically replicable, and it is absolute when facing natural laws."
"Cannot be replicated?" Galio was stunned.
Sister You said: "The containment is unique. Unless there is a containment whose characteristic is to copy other containments, it is impossible for the containment to be copied by any natural means. You will find that they are all the same, but one has absolute characteristics and the other does not."
Galio frowned. A key feature of science is that after discovering a law, a specific result is obtained by repeating this process.
However, Sister You now told him that the containment is like two pots in natural science.
"A pot boils water and produces oil, while making the same pot, putting the same water, boiling at the same temperature, and performing the same process, the result is water vapor."
"There is no doubt that the one that gets water vapor is called nature. The one that gets oil is called a containment."
Sister You gave an example directly to make Galio understand.
Of course, if you have to be serious, scientists can say that the two pots are not strictly equal. There must be some differences between them, but human execution cannot be completely consistent.
Now Galio is such a serious scientist. He said, "Is there such a pot? Where is it?"
Sister You's face darkened and she sighed, "There is indeed such a pot..."
"Turning water into oil? That's great! Although the energy problem has been solved, oil is still a very important raw material." Galio said.
Sister You said speechlessly, "But what about the output? You can boil water in this pot for a lifetime, but it can't catch up with the amount collected by any oil company in a day. And we can't find out the principle of turning water into oil, and then expand this process to create thousands of such pots."
"On the contrary, its greatest use is actually to 'kill fluids'. Because any fluid boiling in this pot will sublimate into oil. So we used it to destroy some other containments. After all, the final oil is normal."
"You see, it is still useful. Even if its characteristics are not universal rules, I think there is nothing that cannot be unified into science." Dr. Galio said firmly.
Sure enough, after the baptism of 'aliens', the scientists in this world have surprisingly good acceptance.
Sister You was stunned and said, "Unification? So that's it. Do you think absurdity itself is also science?"
"I don't think there's anything absurd about this result. Is it more absurd than a gear making up for the engineering defects of a quantum computer? Is it more absurd than the uncertainty principle?" Dr. Galio said.
Sister You looked at Mo Qiong and others and understood where the problem was.
It turned out that they and this group of future scientists were talking with different scientific views. No wonder they didn't understand each other after talking for a long time.
Sister You said, "Okay, I know, we have a generation gap. OK! Whether this science is scientific or not is nothing more than a human definition, just like the sum of all natural numbers is -1/12, which is just a contradiction under the premise of different mathematical structures."
"Let's put it this way, the containment is science, but it is different from natural science. It still has rules to follow, but this rule is only supported by itself, and its strict implementation of rules forms an absolute suppression of natural laws. Or... it has rules but no laws."
"The birth of the containment, there must be some truth in it!"
Galio nodded, which was very comfortable.
Mo Qiong smiled and shrugged. It doesn't matter if you say that.
In fact, the Blue and White Society also thinks so. Behind all the containment objects, there must be a unified system, which will eventually unify all the containment objects.
There must be some truth behind the containment objects. There is absolutely no problem with this statement.
Otherwise, why does the Blue and White Society say that the containment objects are unscientific on the one hand, and do various scientific research on them on the other hand?
It is precisely because existence makes sense. Since it is really placed in front of human beings, there must be some truth to explain it in theory.
This truth may not be so natural that even nature must submit to it and the universe must revolve around it.
But since it is a truth, it is okay to integrate it into science. Calling it a transcendental law or an absolute law is nothing more than a different name.
The reason why the Blue and White Society says it is unscientific is actually because it is not scientific now.
Trying to unify it too early will only make trouble for oneself in the end. This is called the unified researcher in the Blue and White Society. They have been committed to summarizing a theoretical system that encompasses all the containment objects to explain all these anomalies.
It's just that over the past hundred years, the harvest has been mediocre.
The Blue and White Society came into contact with containment objects too early. At that time, science was not rigorous, so along the way, everyone has been accustomed to keeping it independent of science, so that it is easy to classify.
So the containment objects are unscientific, which is actually a "definition" statement, and they are used to this description.
But Galio and his group are not used to it. The "national conditions" are different. They have advanced technology and are in contact with containment objects for the first time, so the premise is different.
"It's okay, seek common ground while reserving differences, as long as you can understand what we mean." Sister You said.
Dr. Galio nodded and said: "I understand, but it's strange, why haven't you mentioned containment objects before?"
Everyone in the Blue and White Society: "emmm..."
