On December 21, 1856, there were still nine days until the New Year in the celestial calendar. As this grand festival was approaching, the tourism industry was also particularly prosperous, and the entire country in the Northern Ashoka Mountain Belt was gradually enveloped in a sense of joy.
In the atmosphere, everyone seems to firmly believe that when the new year comes, the heavy and sad past will be abandoned, and they will usher in a better future.
However, all of this has nothing to do with the snow-chasing people in the Eastern Alps. It does not seem to be an important matter to the foreigners who have lived in the snow-capped mountains for a long time and have long lost contact with the outside world.
At this moment, they are only paying attention to one thing, and that is——
"Succeeded!" Among a pile of messy books, manuscript papers and calculation tools, Xino held a pen and stared intently. He quickly put the last stroke on the paper in front of him that was filled with formulas, numbers and lines, and then spit it out gently.
In one breath: "In this way, all the calculations are completed. Sure enough, as long as the key factors of the three moons are taken into account, the entire calculation process is clear at a glance, and there is no difficulty at all. Although, it still wasted more than two weeks of our time
…”
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but have a look of helplessness in her eyes. Two weeks was still the limit that the three of them could reach if they worked almost non-stop, because the data that needed to be calculated was so huge that Shengtu Mi's formula almost
Every named constellation in the observable star field has been taken into account. I don’t know how he did it alone. In ancient times, there were no mathematical systems and calculation tools as developed as now.
"If my tutor in college knew that I had actually solved the biggest astronomical problem in human history, he would be so excited that he would go crazy, right? Maybe he would recommend me to the Northglen Prize committee?"
Xino teased himself, then organized the manuscript papers on the table, held them in his arms, and walked out of the stone house, preparing to report to Linge and Saint Xalia. This difficult surveying and mapping work was divided between three people.
However, as a top student in the mathematics department, Xino took on the most tedious and important part of it, so her progress was naturally the slowest. The other two people had completed their calculation tasks a day ago and were waiting for her results.
After walking out of the stone house, on the left was the house where Saint Xalia lived, and on the right was the house where Linge lived. Without thinking, Xino turned right and came to Linge's stone house. Sure enough, she heard the conversation between the two.
The voice seemed to be discussing the educational issues of Metien. The pink-haired little girl's study of medical theoretical knowledge has reached a bottleneck, whether it is the modern medical system, the herbal medicine of the Morya people, or even the traditional folk medicine passed down from generation to generation by the mountain tribes.
None of the traditional remedies could give her new inspiration.
So in the past few days, the pink-haired little girl has barely studied. Instead, she has been dragged around by two other friends who don't like to study. She hangs around on Cloud Whale Sky Island. Today she dared to get into Olvera's room.
Peeping at the manuscript of her unpublished novel, she dared to read the original text aloud to the magic herbs in the herbal garden tomorrow and said that she was helping them cultivate their sentiments... The speed of her degeneration is astonishing.
Medien's talent in medicine has been praised by the well-informed boss ladies. It would be a pity to let it go to waste. Therefore, Saint Xalia suggested to Ringer that Medien should start to accumulate practical experience from now on.
, strives to become a qualified medical staff as soon as possible, so that she can realize her dream.
However, there is no one on the island who can train the little girl. The only possible one is Alice. Because that guy is short-tempered and has a lot of problems with eating and not being beaten, it is not impossible that one day he will cause public outrage and be beaten by everyone.
When the time comes, Metien will need to treat her.
But if she is beaten to the point of being mentally retarded, the pink-haired little girl has no choice. After all, her medical skills are not good enough to restore her intelligence.
Xino stood outside the house and listened for a while. He could feel the concern and expectation of the two people for Metien. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He always felt like a pair of parents who were worried about their daughter's future. But they were just thinking about it. If they spoke out,
If so, there will be big trouble.
She coughed twice to remind the people in the room that she was coming in, and then she walked into the room holding the manuscript paper and said to the two of them: "Linge, Xiaoxia, my calculations have come out, are you free?
Don’t you want to check it out?”
"Really?" The two people in the room stopped talking. Lin Ge stood up and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's get started."
Saint Xalia also said: "I hope there will be a satisfactory result."
"Most definitely!"
Xino seemed confident. Although she was only responsible for a part of the data, because it was the most critical data, it could generally reflect the accuracy of the calculation results. If nothing else, they would get the answer soon.
Sure enough, after substituting Xino's calculation results, an extremely clear answer appeared in front of the three of them.
"So that's it." Linge looked at the star field drawn on the manuscript paper and said thoughtfully: "Every January, the line connecting the red moon Draksil and the blue moon Utura moves from the downward stage to parallel
When the phase moves and forms a ninety-degree angle at a specific time, the seven major constellations in the night sky - the constellation of the wind, the constellation of the sky, the constellation of the serpent, the frost constellation, the floating leaf, the white grass and the dragon
The trajectory will change, and together with March, a brilliant Great Hexagram will be constructed. At this time, the projection of the ancient star path can be observed on the top of Osor Peak. If you sail in the direction indicated by the projection, it seems that you can reach the sky.
The star field where the Holy Temple is located.”
"It should be noted," Xino added next to him: "The Great Hexagram shown in the formula not only needs to be observed from a specific angle, but also cannot be observed with the naked eye alone. That distance is even difficult for an astronomical telescope.
, also seems too far away, almost at the edge of the observable star field, maybe we need higher precision tools."
This means that I need the help of Rorona's alchemy.
Ringer nodded. To him, these were all trivial matters. The biggest problem had been solved. The next step was to be fully prepared for the upcoming journey to the universe.
St. Xalia looked at Ringer on the left and St. Xalia on the right. Suddenly, she felt that mathematics was really a magical subject. She could actually see such things from these boring numbers, formulas, coordinate systems and geometric patterns.
With so much complicated information, people who understand mathematics are really powerful.
For the sake of the future of the children, should we add a math class to Tianxin Church?
She thought about it seriously.
…
Unfortunately, this idea was not realized in the end. It is said that Leticia and Semi were frightened after hearing the news. They found Countess Neville and the proprietress Siesta respectively and used "children's"
"Overbrain may lead to stunted development" and "If there is more homework, I can't come to the hotel to help". They softened their hearts and actually passed the major decision of the so-called "Unwhale Sky Island Basic Education Classroom Load Reduction Measures".
In this way, Saint Xalia's conspiracy was naturally defeated without any attack.
Alas, it was clear that she was thinking about the children, but the parents could not understand. This made Saint Xalia very depressed. She held the lamb outside the Tianxin Church and sighed all day long, which seemed to imply that she was not recognized for her talents.
If it were normal times, she would probably go to Ling Ge to discuss a solution, but that's not possible now because Ling Ge is very busy during this time.
What are you busy doing? Of course, you are busy supervising Alice!
Previously, for the needs of the main mission, Ringer commissioned Alice and Rorona to create new cassettes that could confront the constructed mechas and cassette enhancement tools to help the Zero Arus adapt to the cosmic environment. However, in the past three weeks,
Lorena not only submitted the finished product early, she even found the energy to complete some other scattered commissions along the way. Every piece of work was completed impeccably, which can be regarded as a model of time planning and project management. However, this guy Alice was in Ringer
When asking about the progress of the cassette, he looked embarrassed, hesitated, and told him nonsense such as "The project is progressing very well and it is expected to be released within the year." How can such a casual attitude make people feel reassured?
Ringer would not give this guy a good look. He reprimanded her on the spot, then confiscated all the snacks and messy novels in her room, forcing her to complete the cassette before setting sail from the Cloud Whale Sky Island. At the same time, he was serious
He warned other idle people on the island not to talk to Alice during this period, let alone play games with her. Of course, judging from this guy's disgusting character, everyone might have wanted to do this for a long time, but they were just forced to do so.
The golden-haired maid didn't dare to speak out because of her lustful power. At this moment, Ringer held the banner high, so they naturally responded and were very happy.
Poor Alice was locked up in a small dark room and spent every day racking her brains to make up game settings. At least until the new cassette was completed, she had no chance to come out to cause trouble. It was said that that night,
The Fairy Sleep Inn held an unprecedentedly grand banquet. No one on the island was absent. Even small animals such as squirrels and rabbits in the forest were fed by caring people. As for what it was for to celebrate, I don’t know.
Got it.
In addition to supervising the progress of the new cassette, Ringer also consulted the Wusu tribe and asked Iyeta to control the Cloud Whale Sky Island, fly away from the valley where it originally stopped, and float on the Osor Snow Mountain.
Covered by clouds and mist, I hid myself and waited for the opportunity to come.
Through the interpretation of St. Tumi's manuscript, they have grasped the clues to the Temple of Heaven, but the specific time cannot be determined. The special astronomical phenomenon shown in the calculation results-the Great Hexagram will appear on which day in January.
One day, the probability distribution seemed to be beyond the scope of calculation. Ringer and Hinault tried a variety of theories and variations, but were unable to reduce the time to a more accurate range, and finally had no choice but to accept the result.
It is also difficult for them to determine the duration of this astronomical phenomenon, so they can only adopt the stupidest method, which is to squat on Mount Osol for the entire month of January and refine it with Rorona.
An unmanufacturable ultra-high-precision astronomical telescope monitors changes in the stars day and night. When the Great Hexagram is formed, they will set off.
Due to time constraints and limited manpower, the few idle people on Cloud Whale Sky Island, regardless of whether they knew astronomy or not, were assigned tasks in this area. For example, a windmill was installed on the windmill tower of Ieta.
Ask her to pay more attention to the astronomical telescope, take a look at the sky when she has nothing to do, and tell her when she sees which constellations start to move. What if she guesses correctly?
If you don't make a great contribution like this, Captain Gloria will be overjoyed and may promote you from the position of navigator to... chief navigator?
Although it was a piece of cake that didn't look very appetizing, Miss Angel still ate it happily. In the past two days, she stopped using her small telescope to peek into other people's private lives. She just played with it on the roof when she had nothing to do.
An astronomical telescope with a cooler shape, hoping to find a shortcut to promotion and salary increase...
Originally, Ling Ge had no hope for her. He just wanted to find something for her to do, and develop other hobbies by the way. Don't peek into other people's private lives all day long. What if he develops a voyeurism? A voyeur.
It doesn’t matter, what’s worse is that Miss Angel seems to have a hobby of writing diaries. What if she writes all the little-known secrets she spied into her diary, and then they are exposed by some mean-handed golden retriever maid?
If she comes out, I'm afraid it will trigger public outrage. By then, even Ringer won't be able to protect her.
For the sake of Miss Angel's personal safety, Ringer thoughtfully nipped the hidden dangers before they started. Just like in order to prevent Olvera's secret of staying up late from being discovered by Saint Xalia, he deliberately staggered the time for the two to observe the stars.
At noon, one at midnight.
However, he can only do this, and his manpower is sometimes exhausted. What if Oveira gets a brain twitch one day and walks past Saint Xalia openly with two big black circles under her eyes, or Iye
Ta couldn't hold back the sense of accomplishment of mastering other people's little secrets. If he had to tell it and share it with everyone, there was nothing he could do about it, right?
While supervising Alice, he was concerned about the lives of the girls, and occasionally cared about Metien's studies. In the end, it was business... Time passed like this with Ringer exhausted mentally and physically. It was basically uneventful, except for Sontaya.
After no longer being responsible for delivering meals, he would occasionally come to Cloud Whale Sky Island as a guest. Apart from exchanging a few words with Leticia, basically nothing major happened.
Then, when the time came to the 23rd of January, there were only eight days left until the end of the month. There still seemed to be no trend in the big hexagram, and there was no movement in the seven constellations mentioned in the calculation formula. The calculation results were really
Is it accurate? Could it be that the key month of March was missing, which caused the method used by St. Tumi to fail?
Just when the young man was worried about gains and losses, that night, Saint Shalia suddenly came to the Fairy Sleep Inn and told him a piece of news with a strange look on his face: "Ietta, she——"
"It seems that we have found signs of the formation of the Great Hexagram."
