The vast majority of mages in the entire continent of Europa are in Brussels.
The reason is Brussels, not Paris or Berlin.
Firstly, it is because Brussels is the headquarters of the Europa League, and secondly, because no country here can interfere too much in matters related to mages and can maintain a relatively balanced state.
When Daniel led his team to search for clues in the hope of finding the other party, the Europa League was negotiating with England, saying that they would participate in the investigation of the incident.
"We are a whole, and magic is a matter for the entire Blue Star civilization. England should abandon the limited thinking of competing for interests."
With the complete integration of the economic level, the overall management of the Europa Union has essentially reached a big level.
As for the local chickens who want to join the European Union, they even threaten refugees to force the European Union to agree.
The attitude of the Europa Union has always been very ambiguous before. In 2005, it made Turkey an observer member, which means to observe whether you can come in.
It took nearly 20 years to observe that Bulgaria and Romania, which later became observer members, have become full members of the Europa Union.
The Europa Union has always needed the young labor force and market of local chickens, and it also needs it to serve as a barrier for the Europa continent in the Middle East.
But there is a big difference in values between native chickens and old Europe. In fact, the major member states of the Europa Union don’t want local chickens to come in.
In the past, the Europa League would have been a local chicken.
But since England returned to the Europa League and the currency of the European continent was unified into the euro, the attitude of the Europa League has suddenly become much tougher.
They directly rejected Tuji and even kicked him out of the observing member states.
As a balance, the Europa Union provides tariff compensation for the chicken trade.
This also shows that the power of the Europa League is on the rise.
Therefore, this time the Europa League also strongly demanded that England allow their investigation team to enter.
The video and complete documentation have been distributed to mages in Brussels.
In addition to being in Brussels, the European Union's mages are also located in Geneva, Switzerland.
CERN (European Nuclear Research Organization) is located in Geneva, and magic plays an irreplaceable role in research in the microscopic field.
Therefore, all physical mages are stationed at CERN.
Previously, CERN included Israel in addition to the Europa League members. Since the emergence of magic, Israel has been kicked out.
Closer to home, when the mages in Brussels saw this video, everyone looked puzzled.
"Professors, this video has been verified by experts in the relevant field, and there are absolutely no edits or props.
Yes, there is new magic in the world.
The video was uploaded in London, and the location and person filming the video are still being determined.
We hope you can give us some suggestions from a professional perspective.
Everyone has enough time to think and communicate. "
Jurgen was not surprised when he heard this.
Because in his opinion, it is strange that magic is an isolated case, and it is common sense that different magics appear.
The threshold of the magic system constructed by Merlin is a bit too high.
Even if Merlin's magical civilization is many years ahead of Blue Star in science, the difficulty of obtaining this kind of magic system is not something ordinary people can obtain.
The more we study, the more consensus we have formed, that is:
Magic is definitely not metaphysics, but science, and it can be explained through science.
After everyone looked at it carefully, they took turns expressing their opinions:
"This spell is a bit difficult. We can also gather water molecules in the air, but we cannot gather them into a water ball so quickly."
"No, it's definitely the breaking down and recombination of atoms that's happening.
Normally, the content of water molecules in one cubic meter of air is between 0-30 grams.
We assume that the video was shot in London, which has been cloudy recently and has relatively high humidity.
Even so, to form such a water ball, he needs to gather ten cubic meters of water molecules around him.
When water vapor appears out of thin air, it only appears in one cubic meter around it.
It is impossible to gather so many water molecules in such a small space. "
"Is it possible that the water molecules moved first, and the water vapor was formed when the density of the water molecules around his hand reached a certain level?
What if the front-facing camera of your mobile phone cannot capture the flow of molecules?
To know the splitting and recombination of atoms is far more difficult than simply moving water molecules.
Judging from the FB posts, the other party only spent about a week learning magic. "
"He said maybe a week just to show off, maybe it took longer."
“No, no, no, these are not the point.
The point is, can humans cast spells without the Demonic Brain?
This is the crux of the matter.
Without the Demonic Brain, humans can still affect the real world through their own power.
I feel like my worldview is about to be restructured again.
I'm going to convert to God. "
"Why not cyberpunk? We are all in a virtual world now."
"It does not matter.
The important point is that if magic really does not require the magic brain to be realized, then what exactly is the role of the magic brain that Merlin injected into us?
But new proteins and cellular structures do appear in our bodies.
At the same time, the expansion of the sensory level by the magic brain is real. "
"Maybe there is no relationship between the magic brain and magic.
The magic brain is just a medicine that can improve the overall quality of human beings.
Can magic be done without a magic brain? "
Everyone had a heated discussion, because if the magic brain has nothing to do with magic, it means that their research direction is wrong.
Wrong research direction may lead to wasted efforts and no results, or may produce serious negative effects.
The reason why it is so difficult to move forward in cutting-edge research fields is because there are many directions for you to choose from in cutting-edge research fields.
There is only one direction out of a dozen, not even one is right. Your resources and manpower are limited.
Taking the photovoltaic field as an example, scientific research practitioners who have a certain concept of the material field will find that perovskite has been one of the most frequently appearing directions in major magazines in recent years.
Some people even joke that perovskites are mainly used in the production of SCI and doctoral theses. Not only in China, but also abroad, countless people are investing in this field.
But whether photovoltaic materials based on perovskite systems can be put into practice remains a question mark.
If perovskite turns out to be unavailable for commercial use, or if another new material is more valuable than perovskite, then all the resources invested in this route will be in vain.
Therefore, China has the same advantage as a latecomer. It can cross the river by feeling for the stones, and there are ready-made technical routes for you to follow.
Western developed countries were very distressed before. Huge investments were made in each subdivision of cutting-edge technology, and technological development became increasingly slow.
The economic increment brought by technology has become less and less. It used to rely on the benefits of the technological explosion between World War II and Cold War, coupled with globalization, to live a good life for decades.
There is no increase now. Just when everyone is about to start the stock game, and American has already proposed that American gives priority, Merlin appears.
If magic is a super power, it is an existence that cannot be explained. If it is possible, it will be possible.
Blue Star countries will also take it seriously, but not so seriously.
The more important meaning of magic is that magic can also be within the framework of science.
The magical civilization behind Merlin has more advanced technology than Blue Star.
Even if they can't cooperate, what Blue Star wants is to be able to cross the river by feeling the achievements of magical civilization.
The neuroactive substances previously known to humans were mainly norepinephrine, dopamine, acetylcholine, serotonin, etc.
Humans have discovered a new neuroactive substance in the mage's body, and Germany's Bayer Pharmaceuticals has developed a laboratory method for producing this substance.
They have found that this substance can act on many types of mental illnesses and have begun field trials of this substance.
The technological advancements brought by magic to Blue Star are not only the biological storage provided by Merlin to everyone, but also the traces left by Merlin's various actions on Blue Star.
These traces also have value.
Including the crows that circled in the sky of Stockholm Concert Hall, the European Union has studied many good things from these crows.
Crossing the river by feeling for the stones is not a Chinese patent. As early as before and after World War I, America knew how to cross the river by feeling for Germany.
It is a common thing in human civilization for late-developing countries to learn from early-developing countries.
Even earlier, it can be traced back to the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty by Neon during the Tang Dynasty.
But if Merlin's Magic Brain has nothing to do with magic, and the Magic Brain is just a cover-up, then it means that the countries of the Europa League have invested too much resources in the technical path of the Magic Brain.
After Jurgen saw that everyone was almost discussing, he finally stood up and said:
"I don't think we need to worry too much. First of all, we all achieved spell casting through the magic brain and taught the spell casting process to others.
Has anyone changed the state of even one atom in reality without a magic brain?
The phenomenon in the video, I also believe, is that someone else has mastered magic, and it seems to be more complicated than the magic we know.
But this doesn't mean that he really doesn't have a magic brain or other devices.
It's not even certain whether the people in the video are Blue Star people.
I have always felt that Merlin's ability to come to Blue Star means that there must be other alien life forms that can come to Blue Star.
If Merlin is a Blue Star person and has acquired an alien inheritance, or if Blue Star really has a magical civilization, then magic will definitely not be an isolated case.
Now it's time to prove my idea. "
Jurgen is a philosopher, and his most important task is to deduce the social form of magical civilization.
But there was too little information and he needed more information to make a judgment.
The magician who suddenly appeared this time seemed to him a good observation sample.
...
The day has passed, and Daniel and his team have achieved very little.
In other words, without the cooperation of FB and Vodafone, it would be difficult to quickly open a breakthrough.
The cooperation between FB and Vodafone is very limited.
Other investigation teams sent people to Brixton to conduct a detailed investigation and screening.
According to what his boss told Daniel, it was almost the same as he expected. The flow of people there was too complicated and not many valuable results emerged.
“The other party’s ID in FB is 50010987654321. I think I roughly understand what this ID means.
My thoughts have been disrupted by the other person's experience, background and skills.
And didn't notice the magic on his ID.
This is a very magical ID, and one that few people know its potential meaning. "
After Daniel's rediscovered clues turned out to be wrong, his colleague Bertie Hanson suddenly said.
Bod had always felt that this string of numbers was familiar, but she had been following the team around before, and she didn't have time to calm down and sort out her thoughts.
It wasn't until she went back and looked at the relevant information on FB that Bertie realized the information contained in the string of numbers.
Daniel turned to her and asked, “What’s so magical?
Isn't this a random number?
At most, the order behind it is from 10 to 1. "
Bertie Hanson's face was filled with memories: "This represents the first edition of Harry Potter.
That's "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"
When Bloomsbury published "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", only 500 copies of the first edition were printed.
And the copyright page of this book has reverse numbers from 10 to 1 printed on it.
This was a mistake by the publisher, it should have been printed from 1 to 10.
If it's just 10987654321, then maybe it's a coincidence.
But if 500 is added in front, it is definitely not a coincidence in my opinion.
The other party is definitely the ultimate Harry Potter fan, and even many ultimate fans will not know that the copyright page of the first printing of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was printed incorrectly. "
The more Daniel listened, the more his eyes twinkled.
He knew where to start.
He gave Bod a hug: "I also believe this is definitely not a coincidence, and the information you provided is quite useful.
This can help us greatly narrow down the filtering scope.
There are absolutely not many people who can know this information.
Even one of the owners of the five hundred first printings. "
Bod nodded and said: "These first editions of Harry Potter books with printing errors have only been auctioned seventeen times on the market.
The most recent of these was the Harry Potter Hogwarts auction held at Bishton Hall in Staffordshire at 2pm on May 5, 2021.
That was the last public sale of the collection. "
Daniel was stunned: "How do you know so clearly?"
Bod said calmly: "I'll tell you after I catch the person."
There were only 500 copies of the first printing of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
Among them, excluding those that were exiled outside England, very few remained in London.
Since this thing is a rarity among rarities, the owner will either show it off to friends or post about it on social media.
With a breakthrough, when the state machinery is activated, the information of these owners is investigated very quickly.
After final investigation, the suspect became very clear.
