Chapter 40: Douglas, who is not easy to fool

"This paper is based on the principle of relativity and the principle of the constant speed of light. I stipulate this as follows..."

After scanning the contents on the paper, Douglas's smiling expression turned serious. He raised his head and looked at Oliver, but was slightly shocked to find that the pile of papers in front of him, including love poems, scripts and essays, instantly turned into dust.

, dissipated in the air.

Oliver didn't grab the first page of Douglas's paper, so in desperation he destroyed everything on the table, completing a clean "destruction of corpses and traces"!

He was now full of regrets. During this period, he fell into an emotional whirlpool and was a little haggard. After taking out the paper to study, he forgot to take it back and started composing a long love poem. Later, he simply forgot about it and had nothing.

He introduced Douglas into his study.

I should have blessed myself with a "mechanized mind" when the tower spirit informed me! Oliver's facial muscles twitched, and he regretted it very much.

Douglas looked at Oliver strangely: "Why destroy it? Why stop me from reading it? Lucien's paper is based on two premises to derive a formula. What's the problem?"

The homepage of the paper mainly includes two principles and their respective explanations.

Oliver looked sideways at the bookshelf by the wall, smiled self-deprecatingly, and then said with a lively expression: "These are some ideas that Lucien and I exchanged. They are still in the stage of assumptions and fantasy, and are full of loopholes and errors.

So I don’t want to be seen by others. You know, I am a perfectionist. Whether it is scripts, poems, oil painting creations, or arcane and magical research, as long as I am not satisfied, I would rather destroy it than take it out.

.”

Such words would be ridiculous to others, but the explanation of this Grand Arcanist who exudes a strong artistic atmosphere, coupled with his unshaven, haggard and sad appearance, is particularly convincing.

Douglas seemed a little convinced and said with a smile: "Fantasy and hypothesis are also good. They can give me inspiration and let me guess what you are discussing. Well, the speed of light does not change... Recently popular papers explaining the speed of light experiment...

·····Could it be that Lucien naturally derived your system of transformation equations based on these two premises?"

Oliver pressed his forehead and asked, Mr. Speaker, do you want to be so smart: "No, it's not..."

Douglas didn't seem to hear what he said. He took out a stack of paper from his storage bag, picked up his quill and began to deduce based on the two assumptions of Lucien's paper.

"No..." Oliver took a step forward and was about to stop him, but when he saw Douglas writing furiously, he suddenly fell silent. The Speaker had this idea. Even if he could stop it temporarily, he would do the same when he returns.

If you can deduce it, you might as well watch it yourself and see if you can seize the opportunity to enlighten him to avoid a tragedy.

If everything goes beyond control... Thinking of this, Oliver activated the ultimate authority of the Magic Tower, trying to jump out of the "Theater of Destruction" at the critical moment.

Destroying one's demiplane will at most result in severe injuries, and one can just map and create another one when the time comes.

At this time, Oliver still had a sense of responsibility and did not notify Fernando and Lucien to come, lest they be affected.

Starting from these two premises, Douglas quickly deduced a series of formulas, but the more he deduced, the slower he started writing.

Buzz... The theater of destruction outside the magic tower made a low whine. The exploding stars seemed to be pulled by some force and showed slight signs of collapse. Although it was not perfect and very crude, it gave off a stronger sound than before.

The more terrifying atmosphere of destruction at the end of the world.

Cold sweat broke out on Oliver's forehead. He is indeed a strong man at the peak of the legend. If he can induce changes in the stars in the demiplane that he has complete control over, there won't really be any problems, right?

With each magic blessing on his body, Oliver eliminated all emotions, and his blue eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses were like frozen ice, staring at Douglas.

The dust floating in the air became dull, and time seemed to slow down. The space in the study shrank slightly, and blue veins appeared suddenly in Douglas' hand holding the quill. His skin became slightly dull, as if he had aged dozens of times in an instant.

age.

After the quill pen drew the last stroke, Douglas looked at the paper in silence, his kind face unusually gloomy.

"Your Excellency Speaker?" Oliver shouted softly.

Douglas was as still as a stone statue and did not answer. Just when Oliver was about to speak again, he raised his head and showed a wry smile: "Although after Brooke established the electromagnetic system, I noticed that my motion theory seemed to be inconsistent at high speeds.

There is a bit of a problem, but seeing them being ruthlessly overthrown and subverted is still quite shocking, and I feel like my life over the past thousands of years has been completely denied.”

"No, this is just a useful supplement to your theoretical system." As a famous artist and playboy, Oliver opened his eyes and said lies without any inner struggle, "Are you okay?"

He let out a long breath. It seemed that the Speaker had neither exploded his head nor recognized the world as shattered and solidified.

"Don't comfort me. I know very well what I have deduced. Lucien, Lucien is more dangerous than Brooke..." Douglas smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It was really hard for Fernando to accept him as his student. Fortunately, it was originally

I didn't fight for it...Fortunately, this paper is only a hypothetical derivation for the time being, and has not yet been confirmed by experiments and phenomena.

"Moreover, it is completely inconsistent with the time error of artificial planets. According to this derivation, time should be slowing down, but in fact it is getting faster..."

Douglas's eyes were full of spirit, and he asked himself slightly obsessed: "What exactly is space, what exactly is time, and why do they change with the change of matter! What is the function of speed..."!

Oliver was a little surprised. It seemed that Speaker Douglas didn't notice the discussion article published by the Lucian student. That's good, that's good! Once he gets used to the familiar "why world", he won't be so upset later.

impact.

After considering his tone, Oliver elaborated on his point of view: "In the past, we thought that time and space were absolute, independent, and mathematical, but now we may try to look at it from another angle. If we can thoroughly study the relationship between time and space,

Mystery, I think it’s not that far away from the reality of the world.”

He is using the bright prospects of the future to seduce a magician like Douglas who has a strong desire for discovery. He hopes that when he discovers the relativistic effect, he will not just think that the original system has been overthrown, but think that this is closer to reality, so as to avoid an explosion.

head.

Douglas woke up from his addiction, rubbed his forehead and straightened the tie on his chest, and said in a somewhat erratic voice: "In just about a hundred years, I have accepted several subversive theories in succession. If I hadn't suddenly remembered Lu

The concept of relative truth and absolute truth mentioned by Sean·Perhaps I will be like Brooke, and the cognitive world is broken and solidified. Although this paper has not yet been confirmed by experimental results and phenomena, in the high-speed battle, I have noticed

some problems."

Oliver touched his forehead and thanked Lucien for finally doing a good thing and making the Speaker accept the difference between relative truth and absolute truth. He said solemnly: "Lucien said that your exercise system is not wrong, Mr. Speaker.

.”

"Well? It's not wrong?" Douglas looked at Oliver doubtfully.

Oliver nodded seriously: "He said that your motion system is a relative truth and an approximation of this theory at a low speed. You are not on the wrong path, you just haven't gone far enough."

As a playwright, it is very easy and simple for him to make up "famous quotes", but Lucien did also use the description of "low-speed approximation". As for the others, of course they are modifying "adjectives"!

Douglas nodded slowly at first, more accepting of this statement, then frowned and said: "From your tone, it seems that preliminary experiments have confirmed it?"

Oliver's expression suddenly froze on his face. When dealing with people like the Speaker, something will be revealed if you are not careful.

"No, it's just that Lucien is very confident. You know, his previous success makes him confident." Oliver continued to lie and pushed the problem to Lucien, describing him as an arrogant maniac.

Douglas stood up: "So that's it... My mind is a little messy. I'll go back and sort it out first. Maybe this paper will be the starting point for my future research..."

Without waiting for Oliver to answer, he turned and walked out. After leaving the magic tower, he sighed softly: "How could Lucian be that kind of person? Without preliminary confirmation through experiments, he will not agree with you on this paper.

The discussion will only be done privately with Fernando."

His expression was half joyful and half sad, as if he was in an extremely violent struggle inside.

Returning to his "real secret realm", Douglas asked Tarling to bring over Lucien's parts from recent issues of papers.

"Tensor analysis...why not?" Douglas knew that his behavior was very dangerous, but he could not control himself as he recognized that the world was shaking, as if the maze that had troubled him for many years was about to reach the exit.

Regardless of whether the ending is good or bad, there is always an answer. How can the footsteps stop?

After searching for a long time but unable to find it, Douglas picked up the issue of "Arcana" in which Oliver published the system of transformation equations and read it carefully from the beginning. He believed that Lucien would have laid the groundwork in advance, otherwise he would not have submitted such a subversive paper.

With his understanding of Lucien and Fernando, Douglas turned to the end and suddenly saw two familiar names: "Annick...Splinter...is this Lucien's student?"

With his eyes focused, Douglas carefully read this discussion article. Gradually, his brows furrowed, and a formula he had derived before appeared on the carpet of the Magic Tower under the tug of his mental power.

"If we start from the formula that the speed becomes faster and the mass increases, we may be able to get an explanation." Douglas seemed to be chased by something, kept calculating, and finally got the data and the direction of adjusting the electric field.

This time he did not simulate in the cognitive world, but entered the laboratory directly, turned on the newly purchased electromagnetic cyclotron, and adjusted the electric field.

After a while, the beautiful scenery outside the Magic Tower was suddenly shrouded in darkness, as if space and time were in chaos.

Douglas got off the accelerator, walked to the window, and sighed deeply:

"What is time, what is space, what is life..."

The light of the "real secret realm" seems to be intact, but Douglas's eyes are quite confused. His philosophical concepts have undergone earth-shaking changes in the past few hundred years.

"Fortunately, I still have a theory of gravity...but what is the source of gravity? What causes it? How did gravity appear in the first place?"

"Does absolute truth represent..."

Before Lucien had time to submit his discussion paper, he suddenly received a message from his teacher Fernando:

"Come here, Oliver, this bastard with a white mind, is in trouble!"

Huh? Lucien was stunned for a moment, and faintly heard the teacher's voice yelling at Oliver.

What happened?
