What is science?
Science is dialectics, a method of understanding the world that is not deflected by subjective cognition.
Is it because magic cannot be widely popularized because the people are too stupid?
No, I don’t know the situation in the main world, but Wang Qi knows the mysterious attributes of hybrids. About 70% of people have hope of learning low-level magic, at least tattoo-style fighting spirit.
The bigger problem is that the way each school understands magic is so different that when studying across schools, there will be many contradictory statements, which greatly hinders the unification and further development of magic theory.
The original intention of establishing the institute was to deeply understand the mechanism of interaction between magic and the physical world, and to standardize the way of learning magic.
But that's easier said than done.
According to the information provided by Solaris, magic is a kind of elementary particle. To understand elementary particles, the most basic equipment is the Large Superconducting Particle Collider.
This is only a threshold for cognition rather than observation. In fact, with the level gap between humans and elementary particles, direct observation is impossible. Their existence can only be calculated through accurate measurement of electron volts.
Obviously, the gap between the equipment foundation and the goal is too big, and the only practical tools that can be used are mathematical tools.
And because Wang Qi, the idiot, did not go back to the ruins of the university to read mathematical reference books before coming to the dark land, the existing calculus tools are very crude and only directly helpful in a few directions such as mechanical structure and heat conduction.
The combination of various difficulties has caused the truth-seeking work of magic to become a very huge and complex project.
For a long time, the method was to first observe actual changes, then guess the principles, and then try to prove or overturn them to advance slowly, which is the practical scientific research method.
This is unthinkable in the construction industry.
The construction industry, a direction that I usually don’t pay much attention to, has actually completely inherited the knowledge of Wang Qi, a first-class architect. Several contractors of the cableway platform have embarked on a development path driven by pure mathematics. It can even be said that as long as the materials can keep up, now It has the ability to build a thousand-meter-level building.
Practical methods are a helpless move because science does not have a systematic system. Although it is useful, it cannot be called good.
In this period of uncertainty, the institute finally made a breakthrough in mathematical tools.
According to the dean's declaration, it is now named the Caroline-Lava formula, which is the joint achievement of two academician teams.
It defines magic as three-dimensional energy and is used to isolate the most basic activation model of magic.
Whether magic is ternary energy is still a matter of conjecture. According to this line of elementary particles, the ternary conjecture is likely to have major deviations.
But this does not affect its usability at this stage. With the help of this formula, the institute has successfully made a magic array with lower power than the "Fa".
The source of the unit "method" is the minimum startup energy consumption of a magic spark magic circle after it is transformed into a magic circle. There are smaller startup amounts than this, but there is no one below 0.3, which is basically the same order of magnitude.
The No. 1 model separated by the Caroline-Lava formula has a startup value of 0.02. This value cannot even be measured with existing tools. Multiple spells must be used to detect movement.
As for how to actually apply it...it can't be used yet.
In fact, its main function is to help mages deeply understand the basic elements of the spell model, such as the blades in a steam turbine, why it is shaped like this, and what happens to the gas when it flows through the blades.
From now on, the institute will gradually have the ability to deeply customize magic arrays and magic. It will no longer rely on the existing magic array and spell knowledge system, but will determine spell functions based on needs, and will greatly expand the magic equipment. Application scope.
In physics, it is probably similar to the second law of thermodynamics.
Wang Qi read all the relevant mathematical arguments and hundreds of pages of "streamlined" experimental records in the palace, and felt that he could issue the first-class Phoenix Medal now.
...But let time verify it first. It would be embarrassing if the medal was overturned just after it was issued.
Although the mathematical tool is difficult to overturn once it is established, there may be a problem of missing a certain variable or constant. After they improve the accuracy of measuring magic power, they may make adjustments.
So just take it slow.
In order to prevent the two academicians from being sad due to excessive expectations, they asked General Manager Laiwen to write a letter to explain to the dean.
It will take time for breakthroughs in magic theory to become applied. At present, we still need to pay attention to disaster prevention and adjust the slime mold.
After the slime mold man experimental body was blessed by Wang Qi, it did have a little impact on the subsequent slime mold, but the magnitude was very small, almost the difference between combat power of 5 and 6, and there were degenerative changes in the following months, probably Only one in ten slimemen retains more than one attribute.
Therefore, the plan to add attributes to the slime mold people and affect the slime mold group by changing their bodies was abandoned.
The results of the single culture chamber experiment are much better.
After the experimental subject releases the human form and returns to the ghost form, and then receives a new body, he can retrieve about half of his memory.
The proportion is not high, at least it is obvious that it is possible to retain complete language memory. Wang Qi's recent adjustments to the slime mold have mainly focused on brain simulation.
The slime mold's "gathering" action can simulate many things, and the humanoid form is just one of the options.
Wang Qi's new adjustment aims to maintain a "memory archive" point in the single slime mold tank. That is to say, when returning to the single cabin in a non-spiritual state, the distribution status of existing brain neurons will be recorded first.
To achieve this kind of thing, the technical difficulty of using industrial means is exaggerated. The minimum requirements also require the support of mature brain-computer interfaces, brain crest fluid staining, and huge computing power.
But through the instinct of the host body, it is not difficult to achieve.
There are certain quantum properties in the interconnection between host bodies, which can allow two host bodies in different spaces to reach a synchronized or complementary state. This is probably the basis for their collective will.
Therefore, in the "raw material area", replicating the brain in the "human body cabin" can be done with just a set of instructions. The instructions are also issued by the wooden female statue, and no manual operation is required.
Unfortunately, even with such magical skills, memories cannot be completely preserved, because many "memories" in the human body are actually stored in the neurons and spine of the body. People's thinking often comes after the body starts to move, such as going up or downstairs. When the body starts to move, it will think "I will move my left foot first." This kind of muscle memory is also a part of memory. If it is missing, it will be like a computer file without an index. The files are obviously there, but they can't be used.
The lack of support in the raw material compartment makes it difficult to maintain whole-body-scale neuron simulation for a long time without collapse. Even if only a brain is simulated, in order to ensure the survival of the slime mold, only the brain lobes can be retained, and the proportion is even smaller.
The next step is to find a way to confirm which part of Qin Yu exists, and then try to solidify it into an "underlying operating system".
