Although the sound of air raid sirens makes some people miss it, the more they hear it in the middle of the night, the worse it becomes. Moreover, this was the first time I did this outside the Tower of the Great Sage. I actually forgot to set the remote closing function, so I could only enter the room where the coffin was installed and close it manually.
Finally, he turned off the alarm sound before the other big shots in the community got angry and came to visit him with gritted teeth. Lin wiped away the non-existent sweat and breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's right." The lich who spoke looked at someone who was checking and resetting the program, and asked, "You just said the warning sound. What is the warning?"
…
Looking at Fen who was asking the question, someone couldn't turn his head around for a moment.
Did you find the earth?
Turning his head, Lin immediately dropped the original work at hand. Lin called up the record file and looked at it carefully. After confirming that the last record was the simulation result that caused the program to issue a warning, he immediately displayed the star map in the record. Also pulled out at the same time were the records made from memory, the star map of the starry sky that can be seen from the earth.
Overlay the two pictures together and present them in different tones for a more intuitive comparison with the naked eye.
As a former demon king, a lich, and a genius, Fen's inspection movements are much faster than Lin's. She confirmed that the similarity between the two star maps was indeed as recorded by the star simulation program, which was as high as about 97%. There are very few discrepancies.
Although in the actual star map comparison, the two maps did not completely overlap. In order to avoid memory errors or subtle errors caused by the calculation process, Lin compared the two stars using a fuzzy comparison method in which as long as they fall within a certain range, they will be regarded as the same star.
After confirming that the two star maps overlapped to a high degree, he turned off the earth's star map information. Because his intuition was that the location he found with a high degree of agreement was not the Earth. Looking at this simulated starry sky, although it was somewhat familiar, it also felt a little awkward, and I couldn't explain why for a while.
I had the same feeling just now when I looked at that tower in my dream. But before he could find out the answer, he was interrupted by his fat self. Now that feeling came to mind again, but this time the three people beside him were waiting quietly and did not disturb Lin's thinking.
Suddenly an idea came to his mind. Lin once again called up the star map of the earth and put it on the simulated starry sky, but this time he used a map with the constellations connected. After careful observation, I finally found something that felt wrong.
"The place I found is not the earth, it is not my hometown." Lin came to the conclusion first, looked at the three pairs of curious eyes, and explained: "Speaking of which, it was also an oversight on my part in the design. I only considered the location but did not notice it. Another important basis is the brightness of stars."
Pointing towards the Earth constellations, Sirius is supposed to be the brightest star in Canis Major. Lin said: "This star with an apparent magnitude of -1.44 should be the brightest star in the entire night sky, except for the moon and Venus in the solar system, but it is not on the simulated star chart. The same south gate 2. The two bright stars in the constellation Centauri, I, are not as bright as they should be in the simulation. On the contrary, IV is the brightest star in the simulated Centauri. This is all messed up. .”
The two girls probably won't understand what is going to be said next. Lin more explained to Fen: "In my original consideration, the brightness of the star was only used to judge the distance of the red shift, but I forgot that the distance will also change the magnitude we can observe. So when considering the celestial body In addition to the distance between them, as well as factors such as time and displacement that are affected by the distance, it is also necessary to consider the apparent brightness that can be observed after crossing this distance. These rules must be rewritten into the program. Then I would also like to add the magnitude classification of all stars on the earth star chart used for comparison. I think it is impossible to completely remember it, but using the traditional six equal division method, plus some more famous stars , I should be able to add a lot of data."
Fen pondered for a while, thinking about the formula for changing the apparent magnitude, and then discussed it directly with Lin. As for the two yawning girls, they were sent directly back to sleep. Night is not a time for children.
Early in the morning, Lin woke up again in a bed that was not his own. After reviewing the changes in visual magnitude all night, and since I started giving lectures and was busy all night, it was natural for me to discuss areas where I could stretch my legs.
I originally wanted to stay in bed for a while, but the two girls came to take off the quilt early as if they were taking revenge. The reason is quite valid. "Teacher, Master Spiller brought a group of people to visit." The girls hanging beside the bed, with only half of their faces exposed and their eyes rolling around, said quietly.
Master Spiller? Who?
Suddenly, Lin jumped up from the bed. Are you here to call for punishment?
Lin quickly washed and freshened up as quickly as possible so that he would not be too rude. He changed into more formal clothes and then went to the living room to meet the visiting guests. I have to recite the names of various gods silently in my heart, pray for blessings, and hope that today will not turn into a scene of ruining the place.
Regarding moving back to Wulian City, Lin Ke had a good education for the two girls. For visiting guests, only those who are more intimate are served coffee, wine is only served after the meal, and everyone else is served tea.
After all, tea has the effects of relaxing and soothing emotions, which is completely different from the effects of coffee making people excited and excessive alcohol making people sexually promiscuous. Regardless of whether the visitor comes with good intentions or is looking for trouble, the Shangmi version of Elf Flower Tea will never be too rude.
Of the two girls, only Halumi was waiting on them, while Kaya was busy with her morning routine. Fen has always been impatient with outsiders, so she won't show up unless necessary.
After sneaking outside the living room to make sure that the guests were not in a state of agitation, Lin straightened his hair, straightened his clothes, and walked out. "It is a great honor for me to have Master Spiller visit. I highly respect and admire the master's achievements in astrology."
Seeing the figure of the real owner, the old man who needed help walking did not react at all. Until the young man next to him whispered something in his ear, Master Spiller turned his old face on the spot and said unhappily: "I heard that you are so arrogant that you think you can predict the weather and weather in the next hundred years. "
Where does this one-hundred-year saying come from? Lin looked puzzled. However, he still had to respond respectfully to the old man: "Master, you are exaggerating. I never said that I could predict the situation in a hundred years."
There was an excited young man next to him. He couldn't help but interrupt and said loudly: "That's not what you said yesterday. Don't you dare to admit it?"
Although the young man spoke loudly, he was a bit stern and shy. After all, not many people who become astrologers enter this profession because they yearn for the lofty status of astrologers. Most of them are not good enough to become magicians or even magic apprentices, so they settle for the second best and become a member of the astrologers. Therefore, young people still take into consideration the status between the two of them and do not dare to be too presumptuous.
Lin did not care about others, and explained: "I only said that I found the law that may be the calendar, which can get rid of the current dilemma of only short-term predictions. But that does not mean that I will be able to accurately predict the future within a hundred years." future."
"Is there any difference between the two?" Master Spiller said coldly.
Lin could only try to continue explaining: "There is still a difference between the two. Please allow me to make an analogy. Master, have you ever heard of the Holy Sword Excaliba?"
"Of course, who doesn't know the Holy Sword Excaliba, the sword of Chaka Gwana, the founder of the Gwana Dynasty. Its subsequent holders were Marshal Brno and Shank of the Gwana Empire. Prince Laud, who is not a brave and virtuous warrior? The contemporary swordsman Wagner took over the holy sword from the hands of the previous imperial emperor and became its holder. He also has an unmatched ability. The martial arts of our ancestors and their admirable character. But what does this sword have to do with what you want to say?"
Sure enough, there is no career peak that ordinary people can reach. Lin was impressed by the old man's memory and erudition alone. But he asked again: "So, who is the forger of the Holy Sword?"
This question made the scholar pause for a moment, and he replied hesitantly: "Master dwarf craftsman, Ebola? Iron Fist?"
"You know this too. This really makes me admire you, Master Spiller."
Although he was given a high hat, Lao Jianghu, whose life experience was several times that of someone else, was unmoved and said: "These insignificant things have nothing to do with the focus of what we want to discuss today."
"Yes, it does not matter." Lin admitted generously, but seeing the young people surrounding the master looking like they were about to have a fit on the spot, he continued to explain: "Master, you see, for holding a holy Sword, you can name all the heroes who have achieved great fame, but you are not so confident about the forger. Of course, it has something to do with the age of the forger of the holy sword, but it is more because everyone only knows how to use it. Attention is focused on those heroes who are highly skilled and write legendary epics. This is understandable. Then——"
Leaning forward, Lin used a devilishly seductive tone. "——I provided a weapon that seems to be very powerful, but who can use this weapon to write his own legend. I believe that this is not something I can do as a blacksmith. I can do it, Only a leader like Master Spiller can lead your trusted students or colleagues as a team to create a hundred-year calendar or even a perpetual calendar. When someone asks, who is the author of this perpetual calendar, his name will go down in history. It's definitely not me. You said that, right?"
For an astrologer, the more people choose to believe in the calendar he predicts, the higher his reputation and the benefits that come with it. Therefore, it is unimaginable for them to be able to write a perpetual calendar.
But the devil's temptation is the devil's temptation. It tastes like sweet fruit, but inside it is real poison. Lin seemed to have given up the greatest honor, but these young people who were not experienced in the world could not see the trap hidden in the background.
