Chapter 43 43. Question:
Opal's lecture got aroused:
"The second law of magic is sometimes called the 'law of contact' by ordinary people, or 'the part affects the whole'.
"As long as objects come into contact, they will be permanently connected. .
"Australian spell casters believe that if you want to ensure that the injured person's wounds heal, you must smear the injured person's relatives with oil. "
Students in astrology and numerology classes probably also know that it is best to have some information from the divination target when doing divination. The removed object may simply be the target's hair or blood.
"Similar connections are common in the supernatural field. Everyone's birth date and specific time are closely related to people's numerology. This is the source of astrology theory... Teacher Opal on the stage is still talking non-stop, with no sign of stopping
. Russell could not find the opportunity to inform the teacher about the tentacle monster problem.
"Most of the students here, as well as the teachers you have contacted, use pseudonyms. Teachers like to use the name of a certain gem as their code name, while the students have all kinds of pseudonyms - I often think I am in a zoo, a botanical garden or an armory. (Laughs)
"You should know that this is using code names to avoid the mystical connection between the name and the real person. Of course, not every student cares about this, because after the code name is used many times, it will also establish a mystical connection with the real person. The connection, this connection is at most a little weaker than the real name that has been used since childhood." "
This is the essence of the second law of magic. Abstract connections are ubiquitous and will not fail due to the passage of time..."
Speaking of this, Russell remembered that the one just now The old mage who was mistaken for a teacher was given the pseudonym "Old Man".
But he has been repeating grades for decades.
When a young old man enters school, is he already called "Old Man"?
"Then there is the third law of magic. It is simpler than the first two laws. It has only one sentence - imagination constructs reality! "
But after many years of improvement, the supernatural world changed it to a more accurate version -
"Those who are gifted Human imagination constructs reality!"
"The fact that you are able to sit here and listen to lectures, instead of being like the more than 8 billion people left on the earth, who may not be able to come into contact with any supernatural things throughout your life, shows that you are gifted people. He is an extraordinary person who has experienced spiritual awakening, the lucky one in a million..."
Symbols and concepts trump substance and physical qualities, connections across time and space are ubiquitous, and the imagination of gifted people constructs reality.
Russell secretly remembered the essence of the three laws of magic in his heart, and thought about the possible directions for improving the soul-stirring technique.
At this time, Professor Opal had just finished a lecture and was drinking water that came out of nowhere.
Russell hurriedly took the time to spread out the piece of paper with the tentacle monster's situation written on it, and prepared to lift the piece of paper for Professor Opal to see.
Professor Opal finished drinking the water and started the question-and-answer session:
"Before the next lecture begins, can any student answer my question? The kind that will reward you with credits."
Bai immediately sat up straight and listened patiently to the question.
"Students should know that many magic books are spread outside the supernatural world. They are written by ordinary people who actually have no talent for casting spells and have not experienced spiritual awakening. Most of the magic knowledge recorded in the books is wrong, but some occult sciences The principle is correct, revealing the vague outline of the real extraordinary world.
"But even in these magic books with little nutrition, the supernatural rituals and spells recorded are still extremely complex, and the conditions for casting spells are extremely demanding. A magical ritual almost always requires very harsh conditions to complete. This condition may include specific astrological environments and very complex and rare materials - such as wands and swords that must be made by the caster himself. Under rare astrological conditions Collection of mistletoe.
"Why is this? Why does a magic ritual require such harsh conditions? "Answer me with your knowledge! "
Bai raised his hand at lightning speed.
"Classmate Bai, you answer. "Opal remembered this white-haired boy. He and another girl named Qihai were the second in the admissions exam. Bai
was quite confident.
He came from a wizarding family that had been passed down for more than a thousand years. He patted his chest and said,
"This is because magic is A sophisticated art, a crown beyond the reach of most mediocre people. It must follow tradition perfectly, pay attention to every detail, and make no mistakes.
"Even ordinary liars who don't know magic at all know this when they imitate those of us who are truly talented - magic is a complex and sophisticated art." Professor Opal smiled
.
Shiro also smiled.
"Okay, classmate Bai, sit down."
Bai sat down with a blank look on his face.
There is no mention of credit award. Does this mean I got the answer wrong?
Professor Opal asked a few more students to answer questions, but they all seemed dissatisfied with the results.
At this time, he saw Russell, who was still holding up the note.
"Classmate Russell, please get up and answer the question."
Huh? Russell knew that he had been misunderstood, so he simply put down the note and stood up bravely.
When Bai saw Russell standing up, he had an unexpected feeling:
Sure enough, Russell would not let go of this opportunity to grab credits.
Uh, what's the problem?
After standing up, Russell realized that he had not paid attention to the question just now.
Sorry, when I posted it before, I missed a chapter when I copied and pasted it from the word document. Fortunately, someone told me right away that it had been corrected.
Because these chapters are small classes on mysticism and the progress of the plot has slowed down, I will add another chapter tonight. After all, my chapter is shorter than others.
