Repeat the calculations, think about whether there are errors in your program logic, and try hard to think about whether there are important factors that have not been taken into account. When he got tired of doing these things, Lin stopped doing this meaningless activity. Because the final prediction results did not change much. On the contrary, the more accurate it is, the more frightening it is.
At this time, he turned to study the star map in the restaurant that had been preserved with the Tower of the Great Sage for thousands of years. After dismantling the magic circle behind it and analyzing the meaning of each pattern, there are still many things I don’t understand. The most important point is that this star map is different from Lin's own prediction.
The closer to the time of the six-star continuum, the more Lin believed in his calculation results instead of the thousand-year star map. What exactly is causing such an error?
The part of the thousand-year star chart that Lin could understand was actually about the positions and trajectories of the planets. The reason why the analysis was successful is precisely because I have been thinking about this part of the program during this period. Regardless of whether it is a program turning into a magic circle, or a magic circle turning into a program, there is a certain thread to follow. As long as one key point is clear, everything will be understood.
However, in the Millennium Star Map, the magic arrays and magic patterns regarding planetary trajectories only account for a small part of the whole. The rest of the densely packed stuff seemed familiar to Lin, but he had no clue.
It was 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 recent transformation of the energy channel of the magic tower is far less difficult than the magic pattern behind the thousand-year star map. Lin also sincerely admires the wisdom of the ancients in the world of Lost Earth.
It's just that a certain time traveler didn't know that the original wall, where only one magic power channel passed through each brick, was a normal magic tower building layout. The complexity of this thousand-year star map is also one of the reasons why the successive tower owners of the Tower of the Great Sage did not demolish this wall.
The previous tower owners simply thought this wall was an eyesore and wanted to tear it down. 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 you want to dismantle this wall and move it to another place so that you can continue to do research. However, there is no guarantee that it can be put back together intact and maintain its original function. This is the reason why the Tower of the Great Sage has been preserved for thousands of years and the only facility has been preserved as it is.
And this star map, which has been carefully preserved for thousands of years, is actually wrong! Is it because the wisdom of the Dharma Saint Atoli, the builder of the Tower of the Great Sage, who is known as the Great Sage, cannot match the baptism of thousands of years, or are there other factors?
In fact, during the research process, Lin came up with a reason that he was very reluctant to admit. After the three masters and apprentices entered the Tower of the Great Sage, they suspended the energy supply of the entire tower for several days in order to repair the magic tower. Although it was discovered during the renovation process, this thousand-year star map wall still retains energy supply and continues to operate. The three masters and disciples were very surprised by this.
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 are needed to maintain power supply. However, computer equipment requires an uninterruptible power supply system (UPS) 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 map, 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.
If this matter is messed up, will there be any adverse effects? It shouldn't be a big deal.
But according to 'Merphet's Law'...
"Ah~~"
In order to change his mood, or to escape reality, Lin called two young apprentices.
"It has been more than a year since you obtained the first-level apprenticeship qualifications. During this time, you have learned the second-level magic by yourself. Although you are allowed to ask me at any time, I haven't seen you come to ask me a few times. So as teachers, today I will evaluate the results of your self-study during this period."
With this as a starting point, someone began to unscrupulously ravage the 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 practice entirely 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, you will inevitably feel guilty. Those with a better conscience will tell them the magic to be used before starting. The apprentice only needs to be prepared and cast the spell at the right time. If you are unscrupulous, just treat it as an additional test on personal reaction and magic knowledge.
The famous quote from the military education film that Lin watched when he was on Earth was catchy in front of the two students: What is reasonable is called training, and what is unreasonable is called tempering. So now, Lin Ke is training his two young apprentices very hard.
During this period, two dogs, already larger than humans, returned to the woods around the Tower of the Great Sage. Originally, I wanted to play coquettishly with my master and see if I could eat some cooked food.
But when they saw 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, they silently retreated into the forest to find other small animals to comfort themselves. belly. There is no way, the shadow in the young mind is still there, and it is estimated that it will never disappear in my lifetime.
Although it was rare to train two young apprentices who went crazy during this period, Lin still had a limit to not seeing any wounds or redness. They just made the two little apprentices look miserable, disheveled, and ate a few mouthfuls of dirt. It's not to the point of cutting off hands and feet or killing people. But for girls in their early teens, this lesson is enough.
Time passes and it gets 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 already more mature than those of their peers, and they can clearly understand that they are their biggest supporter. So they never complained, but that didn't mean they wouldn't 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 dinner, I have to do it myself.
As a former fat otaku, Lin is the type who doesn't pay much attention to food. Basically, good food is something that is convenient and fills your stomach quickly. Of course, he would not abuse himself when conditions dictated.
Tonight's event was a long-awaited event, so Lin prepared some delicious dishes to reward himself and to express condolences to the two girls. As for the two big dogs, Gray Hoof and White Nose, who entered the lobby on the first floor of the Magic Tower and stuck out their tongues, they were ignored by someone.
But when I 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 wild beasts made them realize that today was unusual, so they abnormally went into the tower to spend the night instead of hiding under the big shed outside the tower as before.
Although I didn't plan to serve the two dogs, I didn't plan to chase them out either. Lin just directed the two girls to pack some travel items after dinner and put them into backpacks to prepare. If something unexpected happened, such as the tower collapsing or something like that, all the money wouldn't 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, hanging high in the sky. The girls took turns observing through the astronomical telescope the faintly visible large and small craters on the surface of Nanna.
Lin tried for the first time to describe his research and achievements during this period in a language that elementary school students can understand. Of course, many complicated mathematical formulas and precise data are omitted, and metaphors that are easier to understand are used to help people understand the meaning of those unimaginably large astronomical numbers.
The two girls were not bored at all, but listened with great interest. It can only be said that the entertainment in the Lost World is too lacking. As long as it is different from the usual things, it can attract attention. As for the child's unformed concept, in Lin's exposition that traveled across the world, it gradually broke away from the inherent ideas of the lost people.
It's impossible to talk about that thing in the sky in one night, even if it's an abridged version. As the predicted time approached, although Lin was in the stargazing room, he still turned on several screens of the Water Mirror Technique. One shows the time, and the other is a multi-cell surveillance screen in the magic tower. The largest block is the thousand-year star chart wall in the restaurant. Lin was worried that during the six-star streak, the wall would undergo unpredictable changes.
In addition, a reduced-scale photosphere star map was opened. In everyone's eyes, the six planets have entered a small sector, as if they were connected in a straight line. Lin knew that this was an illusion without reference. 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 wonders in front of us or for future observation records, it is imperative to retain more and more accurate data. So of course Lin used the existing technology as much as possible. It is necessary to preserve this scene that only happens once in more than 120 years.
"Teacher, look, a dark shadow appears in the corner of Nanna Yue." Halumi shouted excitedly.
The time is 11:54 pm. The Nanna moon hanging high in the middle of the sky began to cover up the Gudalana moon behind it. Under normal circumstances, the two moons will be staggered and not overlap. At the same time, a dark arc appeared in a small corner to the east of Nanna Moon. As time goes by, the area of Kudalana becomes smaller, while the black shadow on Nanna becomes larger.
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.
