667 Golden Age End of Volume VII (1/2)

Inside the Atomic Universe…

After Natasha fell asleep, Lucien rose and walked to his desk. He took out a thick pile of papers from his magic pouch and turned to a certain page. While considering, he drew seven lines under the word 'self-awareness', which were connected to 'Greed', 'Arrogance', 'Pain' and the other emotional expressions that represented the seven primeval devils.

Then, he left a big question mark behind the seven words and wrote: \”The quantum transformation of the soul requires the superposition of more possibilities? The superposition of other feelings and self-awarenesses?\”

\”On the other hand, the pure congregation of faith and self-awarenesses will offset one's own self-awareness, thereby preventing one from collapsing from the quantum superposition state? However, one's self-awareness will also be greatly affected as a result, which may lead to other problems?\”

\”How should the problem be resolved?\”

Lucien put on a smile as he wrote on. He tapped the paper with his fingers, as if he were inferring and guessing something.

Shaking his hands with a half smile, Lucien collected the paper and took out a piece of blank paper, on which he wrote:

\”The Relativistic Wave Equation of a Single Electron.\”

Natasha, exhausted, was sleeping and recovering, when she suddenly sensed the terrifying force of obliteration and destruction. She opened her eyes warily, only to discover that the magnetic field around Lucien who was in his pajamas had been twisted. A dreamy spectrum appeared like a picture, and the most overwhelming power was descending from the infinite heights!

Half of the colors nearby were black, and the other were white. When they collided, they were destroyed in an unimaginable state, before they were born from the void again.

\”Feedback from the real world…\” Looking at the constantly-changing, black-and-white scene, and feedback of the World she realized what was going on. Also, she somewhat sensed that it was the cycle of the creation and destruction of matter.

The experiences she had when she tried to become a legendary knight, and the problems that occurred to the blood power of Sword of Truth that was purely destructive, were all answered at this moment.

She pulled on her pajamas and walked to Lucien's side quietly, watching him finish the paper.

\”…I once tried to avoid the negative energy result that Dieppe, Larry and Jurisian concluded. However, after constructing the equation and theoretically explaining all the current experiments, I have realized that negative energy is unavoidable. With that in mind, however unreasonable it is, we can only include it in our arcana theories and build a new system that can accommodate it. I hereby predict that there is an antielectron whose electric charge is positive. When it encounters an electron, they will immediately be destroyed by each other and yield tremendous energy…\”

\”If we think more broadly, there may be other antiparticles, and the matter made of such antiparticles can be called antimatter…\”

As he wrote on, Lucien remembered certain concepts in the quantum field theory that he confirmed before. Therefore, the vacuum surged, from which the positive and negative electrons were born, before they obliterated each other and released energy.

Inside his cognitive world, the universe background became hazy, as if matter was being generated and destroyed all the time. The infinite starry sky arrived from far away again, bringing in tremendous feedback from the real world. The objects inside the cognitive environment were changed as a result, and an incomplete new legendary spell was constructed!

Also, 'Eternal Blaze' in Lucien's cognitive world was naturally engraved into his soul, allowing him to step into level three of legendary directly, even though he had only ten legendary spells.

\”Positron Cannon\” Lucien wrote a full stop for his paper and closed his eyes, feeling the incomplete, new legendary spell. He knew that he had to find 'antielectrons' in reality in order to complete it.

\”It's really hard to make advancements simply by practicing and perceiving the blood power without understanding the mysteries of the world…\” Natasha sighed with mixed feelings. That was the reason why legendary knights of higher levels were fewer than sorcerers of the same level. However, as an optimistic girl, she soon cheered herself up and declared, full of ambition, \”It's still not too bad. Although I don't understand the specific arcana theories, I think I will be able to become a legendary knight with your interpretation and illustration…\”

Lucien smiled at her. \”All the classes will reach the same direction when they arrive at the top level. It's about understanding the mysteries of the world. However, the arcanists have the best and most effective approach to explore the world's mysteries.\”

All the different roads led to the same destination.

......

After Lucien's open class, the Congress of Magic was caught in a weird state of 'silence' in general. Everybody discussed the double-slit experiment with electrons, Oliver's cat, Douglas's entangling particles, Lucien's experiment of deferred choice, etc., but nobody discussed the influence of a conscious, considerate and intelligent observer on the microworld. They subconsciously evaded the most horrifying explanation.

However, just because they avoided it did not mean that the distinguished arcanists and the grand arcanists would. The papers on that aspect had been submitted to the Arcana Review Board.

Larry sat inside the dark library like a statue, as if he hadn't moved at all for hundreds of years. Oliver's cat panicked him, and Lucien's observer theory terrified him, making it impossible for him to calm down for his own research and adventure. His head was swarmed by questions in that regard.
