The matter of Marquis Balan will be put aside for the time being. Let's not talk about the girl who has no personality and only knows how to escape before. It is impossible to make a decision so quickly. The deacons and servants who were taking care of her would naturally report this matter to Grand Duke Kawei. The old man should have multiple plans to deal with various options.
For Lin, the observation plan of the abyss is the key project in the near future.
Since the preliminary preparations have been completed, it is now time to go to the abyss to collect information from early morning to morning. At noon, I went back to my home in Estali, the holy city of Midland, for dinner. In the afternoon, of course, I had a math class at Kabamba College, and then I sorted out the materials in the evening.
As more and more observation data are accumulated, the progress of the plan is slowly advancing. After all, for data science, the biggest fear is insufficient data to make a representative model and determine the true nature of things. No matter how large the amount of data is, there is nothing to worry about. At most, the processing time will be a little slower.
The most valuable part of the process is to use machine learning methods to automatically identify the data to be retained and the parts that can be excluded through cross-comparison of images and data. Although this part has not yet involved the study of radio waves from deep space, it can reduce P-level data to T-level, which cannot but be said to be a great progress.
Kaya also made quite gratifying progress. She found out the reason why the sky of the abyss obscured the stars behind it. The key, of course, is that it is unique to the abyss, with a very high dispersion concentration, custom code-named 'Abyss Sand', and contains extremely small suspended particles that contain power.
On Earth, the sky appears blue because of a phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering. Very small air particles will process the different frequencies of color light in the sunlight differently when the sunlight passes through the atmosphere. Because blue light has a short wavelength, it scatters more intensely, so it fills the entire sky, making the sky appear blue.
Abyssal sand is smaller than the most notorious PM2.5 on earth, reaching the atomic or single molecule level. Unlike the earth, the abyss sand has eight more powers, which are unreasonable magical side products. Therefore, the entire sky of the abyss seems to be shrouded in a natural magic barrier.
And because abyssal sand does not refer to a specific substance or element, there are countless types. There is no specific sequence for the power contained, and there are also countless types. Such characteristics create the chaotic reality of the abyss world.
Abyssal sand also affects the sky here. The Rayleigh scattering characteristics of the earth can be said to have reached the level of refraction when it reaches the abyss. Except for some of the direct stellar light that can pass through the abyss' atmosphere, most of the colored light in the spectrum is blocked. Even if someone wants to observe, most of the radio waves coming from deep space are filtered by this unreasonable abyssal atmosphere.
In addition to the outside being unable to get in, the inside being unable to get out. The sky of the abyss, like a mirror, not only causes the incoming light to continuously reflect inside, but also blocks the climate characteristics of the abyss, preventing it from spilling out.
The former makes it so that there is no obvious distinction between day and night in the abyss. No matter what time, it is always a bright feeling.
There are many phenomena of the latter, such as why people feel unbearably hot in this environment with so little sunshine. Lin has actually measured the temperature in the abyss for many days, and it has never been lower than 38 degrees Celsius.
This is because the abyss is rich in active volcanoes and rivers of magma. The large amount of geothermal energy emitted is locked by the sky covered with abyssal sand and cannot be dissipated into outer space, causing the internal temperature to remain high even without sufficient sunshine. Unlike the Earth, where volcanic ash hit by meteorites fills the sky and blocks the sun, the temperature will plummet, causing mass extinction of life.
As for the large area of the sky that looks gray, it is because the sky of the abyss reflects the appearance of the earth's surface to a certain extent. It's just that this image is not very clear, and even some scattering and refraction phenomena will further blur the image reflected by the abyss sky, becoming what everyone sees.
Now that we know the reasons for the obstruction of observation, we must of course think about solutions. And it feels like there is no way to solve it from a scientific perspective this time. Because one of the important factors is the abyssal sand that is everywhere and contains power. Then we should think about the solution from the perspective of magic.
At this time, a very special law of cause and effect magic came into someone's eyes - Liz Dean's real magic.
The original function of this magic is to break through the disguises created by magic, including various phantoms, illusions, magic barriers, magic traps, etc. It is an inconspicuous one among the countless kinds of 'see through' magic.
When most magicians learn the magic of seeing through illusions, they will choose another famous magic - the Arcana Breaking Technique. This magic detects illusion-type disguises and reveals the general outline of the person beneath the disguise.
For example, some goblin priests are very good at dragon phantom, which allows them to put a lifelike dragon disguise on their appearance. At this time, using the Arcana Gaze Breaking Technique, one can immediately see through the illusion's posture, and then detect the figure of the little goblin hidden inside.
Although Arcana's Gaze Breaking Technique has the advantages of being easy to learn, low consumption, and easy to use. Because the magic is not applied to the target, it will not arouse the opponent's wariness or displeasure, but it is not without its shortcomings. The most criticized part is that the real appearance is not clear.
The technique of looking down is probably, 'Oh, this is an illusion. ', 'Oh, what's inside is like that. 'This level of awareness. Although this level is enough for magicians who are in a dangerous environment, or who do not know that they are in danger. Because noticing something strange can make them wary. As long as you are prepared, the magician is very difficult to deal with.
But there are always people who hope to strive for excellence, restore the real appearance more clearly, or have other different requirements. Therefore, on the basis of Arcana's seeing through magic, many 'seeing through' magics have been derived.
Lin chose Liz Dean's Reality Magic because this magic has a unique angle in cracking illusions among many options. 'If power didn't exist, what would the things in front of us look like? 'With this sentence as a preface, let the magic of Liz Dean's Reality leave a deep impression on someone's mind.
In magic, anything involving 'what if', 'if' and the like can be classified as magic related to the law of cause and effect. What this type of magic has in common is that it is difficult to learn and use. But as long as it is successfully used, the effect can be guaranteed.
Another reason for choosing Liz Dean's real magic is because the 'see through' effect of this magic has nothing to do with how many layers of illusion the target has received, nor does it have anything to do with the size of the target.
Some see-through magic will become more difficult to perform or consume more power as the target becomes larger or the more and more complex illusions are applied to it. He even broke through the disguise at the same time he saw through it.
Liz Dean's realism doesn't care about this at all. It directly selects a result without power interference from the long river of time, countless past, future and parallel time and space, and presents it before the eyes of the caster.
Rather than using other kinds of see-through magic to challenge the countless abyssal sands that cover the entire abyss sky, it is better to come up with an 'if' directly. Because what you see this way will be a different scene. But there is another problem with the observer effect. Is what I see really real, or is it just the 'reality' I want to see.
Of course, someone had considered another, more scientific approach. It means to use the flash technique to move the telescope outside the atmosphere of the abyss, and then transmit back the observed records.
But to do this, there must be a premise: the abyss is really like one of my assumptions, another planet in the same universe, or a similar universe. It is a planet with an atmosphere, so it only makes sense to send astronomical telescopes out.
Otherwise, it would just be sending things to an unknown place, and then waiting for him to send back some messy things. If what comes back is just some junk information, then forget it; if it brings back some not-so-good existence, then wouldn't it be bad for you?
How do Hollywood science fiction and supernatural horror movies work? Isn’t it just that scientists engage in various suicide attempts and provoke things they shouldn’t? How could someone with a character who seeks stability in everything possible do something like this that is obviously to set a flag for himself?
What's more, what was the result of sending a satellite into the sky before? Not only was he knocked down, but in order to save the satellite, he was also seriously injured and had to rest for a long time. That kind of experience is something no one would want to have a second time. Therefore, some behaviors that are too suicidal should be avoided if possible.
Just why would you choose a magic that is closer to metaphysics than science? It is not the same as someone's previous behavior. It can only be said that if you stay in such an environment and see too many unreasonable things, how can you not touch this knowledge at all in order to save your life. However, as long as you touch it, why don't you want to try it and see what the outcome is.
Compared with someone's most important recent private work, the study of the Great Prophecy Technique, the implementation of Liz Dean's Reality Technique pales into insignificance. Besides, Lin has an idea that two different types of knowledge cannot be combined. Maybe it makes sense without reason, but as long as the results can be used, maybe the combination of the two can be a benign combination of one plus one greater than two.
The most important point is that if the method of using Liz Dean's real magic doesn't work, it is just a waste of time and magic materials for making supporting equipment, and it is not a life-threatening loss. So someone can still afford to do such an experiment. There is no reason not to try these very unscientific magics.
