Chapter 53 The Millennium Star Map of the Magic Tower
Repeatedly checking the calculations, thinking about whether there were errors in the logic of his program, and trying hard to think about whether there were important factors that had not been taken into account. When he got tired of doing these things, Lin stopped this meaningless action. Because in the end he came to the conclusion
The prediction results have not changed much. On the contrary, the more accurate they are, the more frightening they are.
At this time, he began to study the star map in the restaurant that had been preserved with the Tower of the Great Sage for thousands of years. He dismantled the magic circle behind it and analyzed the meaning of each pattern. There were still many things he did not understand.
place. And the most important point is that this star map is different from Lin's own prediction.
The closer to the six-star continuum, the more Lin believed in his calculation results, rather than the thousand-year star map. What exactly caused such an error?
The part of the Millennium Star Chart that Lin could understand was actually about the positions and trajectories of the planets. The reason why the analysis was successful was precisely because he had been pondering the program of this part during this period. Regardless of whether it was the program to convert the magic circle,
Whether it is a magic circle transfer procedure, there is a certain context to follow. As long as one key is clear, you will understand everything.
However, in the thousand-year star map, the magic arrays and magic patterns related to planetary trajectories only accounted for a small part of the whole. Lin felt that the rest of the densely packed stuff seemed familiar, but he had no clue.
It was precisely the complexity of this part and the density of the magic patterns that made Lin mistakenly think that it was normal for the magic tower to be arranged like this. Therefore, the difficulty of the recent transformation of the energy channel of the magic tower is far lower than that of the Millennium Star.
Lin Ye also sincerely admired the wisdom of the ancient people in the world of Lost World due to the magic pattern behind the picture.
It's just that a certain time traveler didn't know that the original wall brick with only one magic power channel passing through it is a normal magic tower building layout. And the complexity of this thousand-year star map is also the reason why the Tower of the Great Sage has
One of the reasons why the tower owner did not demolish this wall.
Some of the previous tower owners simply thought this wall was an eyesore and wanted to tear it down, but they couldn't guarantee whether destroying the wall would have a negative impact on the energy transmission of other parts, so they didn't dare to do it. Or maybe
They want to dismantle this wall and move it to another place so that they can continue to do research, but there is no guarantee that it can be put back together intact and maintain its original function. This is why the Tower of the Great Sage has been passed down for thousands of years.
The only reason why the facility was left intact.
And this star map, which has been carefully preserved for thousands of years, is actually wrong! It is the builder of the Tower of the Great Sage, the wisdom of Dharma Saint Atoli, who is known as the Great Sage. Even though he has not been able to defeat the baptism of thousands of years, he still has it.
Other factors?
In fact, during the research process, Lin came up with a reason that he was reluctant to admit. It was that after the three masters and apprentices entered the Tower of the Great Sage, in order to repair the magic tower, they suspended the energy supply of the entire tower for several days.
.Although it was discovered during the renovation process, this thousand-year star map wall actually still retains energy supply and continues to operate. For this reason, the three masters and disciples were surprised.
But if you think about it carefully, does stopping the energy supply really have no impact on the star map wall? Just like on Earth, for general electric lights, elevators and other electrical equipment, only backup generators can maintain the power supply. But computer equipment
An uninterruptible power supply system (UPS) is required to maintain normal operation. Otherwise, when the original power supply is interrupted and the backup power supply is switched, the computer will restart.
So for the backup power supply of the star map wall, does the great sage achieve the level of an uninterruptible power supply system, or is it just a backup power supply?
In other words, if there are errors in the thousand-year star chart, rather than questioning the wisdom of the ancients thousands of years ago, it is more likely that you have messed up.
"Ah~" Lin rolled around on the floor of the core room several times, wanting to escape reality.
By the way, if this matter is messed up, will there be any adverse effects? It shouldn't be a big deal.
But according to the ‘Law of Might’…
"Ah~~"
In order to change his mood, or to escape reality, Lin called two young apprentices.
"It has been more than a year since we obtained the first-level apprenticeship qualifications. During this time, we have taught ourselves the second-level magic. Although we are allowed to ask me at any time, we haven't seen you ask me a few times. So I am a teacher.
Yes, today we will evaluate the results of our self-study during this period."
With this as a starting point, someone began to unscrupulously ravage two little girls. This is completely different from the apprentice promotion exam. In order to test the proficiency of their students in apprentice-level magic, the magicians in the Lost World completely
It is to practice according to actual combat standards.
Generally speaking, when the teacher uses a certain magic, the apprentice must use the corresponding magic to counter or break it. If the spell fails, he will inevitably feel guilty. Those with a better conscience will say before starting
For magic, the apprentice only needs to be prepared and cast the spell at the right time. If you are unscrupulous, it will be considered as an additional test on personal reaction and magic knowledge.
The famous quote from the military education film that Lin watched on Earth was catchy in front of his two students: Reasonable things are called training, and unreasonable things are called tempering. So now, Lin is working hard to hone his two skills.
A little apprentice.
During this period, the two dogs, which were already larger than humans, returned to the woods around the Tower of the Great Sage. They originally wanted to be coquettish with their masters and see if they could eat some cooked food.
But when we saw that the tower owner who was entrenched in the territory on the third floor came downstairs and was training his master, in line with the idea that a good dog would avoid danger, we silently retreated into the forest to find other small animals to comfort ourselves.
There is nothing I can do about it, the shadow in my young mind is still there, and it is estimated that it will never disappear in my lifetime.
Although it is rare to train two young apprentices who go crazy during this period, Lin still has the bottom line of not seeing wounds or redness. He just makes the two young apprentices look messy, unkempt, and eats a few mouthfuls of dirt.
It's not to the extent of cutting off hands and feet or killing people. But for girls in their early teens, this lesson is enough.
Time passed and it was getting late. Lin looked at the two girls with tears in their eyes and biting their lower lips. This was not the first time he saw such expressions. As apprentices with no background and no home, the girls’ minds are inherently
They are more mature than the average people of the same age, and they clearly know that they are their biggest supporter. Therefore, they have never complained, but it does not mean that they will not feel aggrieved.
Lin felt that it was almost done, so he sent the two girls to take a good bath and tidy themselves up. Lin had no intention of letting the two girls miss the astronomical event in the evening. As for the dinner, he would attend it himself.
As a former fat geek, Lin is the kind of person who doesn't pay much attention to what he eats. Basically, good food is something that is convenient and can fill his stomach quickly. Of course, he won't abuse himself when he has the conditions to pay attention to it.
Tonight's event was a long-awaited event, so Lin prepared a few delicious dishes to reward himself and express condolences to the two girls. As for entering the lobby on the first floor of the Magic Tower, Gray Hoof and White Nose were sticking out their tongues.
A big dog was ignored by someone.
However, when he saw the two dogs, they both pulled the animal skins they used to make their beds into the tower, as if they wanted to stay in the magic tower tonight. Lin then guessed in his heart that maybe the instinct of the beasts made them aware of what was unusual today.
, so he went into the tower to spend the night, instead of sleeping under the big shed outside the tower like before.
Although he did not intend to serve the two dogs, he did not intend to drive them out. Lin just directed the two girls to pack some travel items after dinner and put them into backpacks to prepare. If something unexpected happened, for example
Even if the tower collapses, all the wealth will not be buried in the ground.
When everything was ready, the three masters and apprentices sat around the observatory, roasting meat on a small stove while listening to their teacher describing the mysteries of the sky.
The Nanna Moon is as full as a mirror and hangs high in the sky. The girls take turns observing through the astronomical telescope the large and small holes that are faintly visible on the surface of the Nanna Moon.
For the first time, Lin tried to describe his research and achievements during this period in a language that elementary school students can understand. Of course, he omitted many complicated mathematical formulas and precise data, and instead used metaphors that were easier to understand to make people understand the big picture.
to the meaning represented by unimaginable astronomical figures.
The two girls did not feel bored at all, but listened with great interest. It can only be said that the entertainment in the world of Lost World is too lacking, as long as it is different from usual things, it can attract attention. And the child's unformed
Concepts, in Lin's exposition across the world, gradually break away from the inherent ideas of the Midi people.
It was impossible to talk about all the things in the sky in one night, even if it was an abridged version. As the prediction time approached, although Lin was in the stargazing room, he still turned on several water mirror screens.
One shows the time, and the other is the surveillance screen in the multi-cell magic tower. The largest block is the thousand-year star map wall in the restaurant. Lin is worried that when the six stars are connected, that wall will
There are unpredictable changes.
In addition, a reduced-scale photosphere star map was opened. In everyone's eyes, the six planets had entered a small sector, as if they were connected in a straight line. But Lin knew that this
It is an illusion without a reference object. If we really compare it with a line, the six planets will not stay on the line obediently.
Then the most important thing is that Lin started the video recording process. In fact, it is just to set up two more monitoring screens on the observatory and astronomical telescope. Whether it is for the astronomical spectacle in front of us or for future observation records, it is preserved
It is imperative to download more and more accurate data. So of course Lin used the current technology as much as possible. He wanted to preserve this scene that only happened once in more than 120 years.
"Teacher, look, a dark shadow appears on the corner of Nanna Yue." Halumi shouted excitedly.
The time was 11:54 pm. The Nanna moon, which was high in the middle of the sky, began to cover up the Kudalana moon behind it. Under normal circumstances, the two moons would be staggered and not overlap.
At the same time, a circular arc of black shadow appeared in the eastern corner of Nanna. As time progressed, the area of Gudalana became smaller, while the black shadow on Nanna increased.
The chain of six plus two stars is about to enter the smallest angle sector.
At this time, the Tower of the Great Sage began to shake slightly.
