Throne of Magical Arcana

While speaking, Lucien took over this issue of "Elements", glanced at the title, and found that the author was an unfamiliar Tel Aviv, a fourth-level arcanist and five-ring magician.

"Maybe it's a newly promoted magician, and only such a young man can propose this model without any constraints..." Lucien thought to himself.

This is not to say that Douglas, Brooke, Fernando, Hathaway and others will not consider the possibility of the existence of negative energy states and antiparticles, and if they do belong to this world, then in what form should they coexist with the original matter, It is that even if they have conjectures in this regard, they will not put forward rashly, but think carefully and wait for the confirmation of antiparticles.

If they come up with a similar conjecture model, there is only one reason, that is, this conjecture model is helpful for discovering and confirming antiparticles and negative energy states, while obviously the "vacuum sea of ​​negative energy states" is not.

In this paper, the strange arcanist from Tel Aviv proposed a ubiquitous and full of "sea of ​​negative energy states" from the basic properties of microscopic particles.

According to the principle proposed by Fernando, electrons always fill the "orbital" with the lowest energy level first, and the negative energy state is obviously lower than all the energy states found so far, and the electrons will obviously jump in this direction, just like building a building. It will start from the foundation, and then go to the basement, first floor, second floor, etc.

Not to mention that the energy produced by this large-scale transition will destroy the entire universe. All the experimental phenomena currently observed have strongly refuted this point, so Dieppe, Larry and others who first deduced the negative energy state would Take it as proof that you haven't thought it through enough to turn out wrong.

However, after Lucien proposed his own quantum equation and predicted the existence of antiparticles, many arcanists took the mentality of assuming it to be true for the time being, and thought about why electrons did not "change" in this direction when there was a negative energy state. , so Tel Aviv has a bold guess, the reason why electrons do not "advance" to the negative energy state according to their "instinct" is because the negative energy state has been filled by other electrons, and they cannot go further.

Moreover, he deduced based on this electronic arrangement form that the electrons in the negative energy state cannot be observed by arcanists, at least not at present. Therefore, in his model, any part of the world is full of negative energy. The electrons in the negative energy state are densely packed, just like we live in a "sea of ​​negative energy states", even if there is a vacuum, there is no vacuum in the absolute sense!

Therefore, this is a "sea of ​​negative energy" that "submerges" the universe, possessing "endless" energy.

But electrons in the negative energy state can also be excited. When it absorbs energy and transitions into a normal electron that can be observed, a hole is left in the "sea of ​​negative energy state". This hole has the opposite charge and the same energy as the electron. Mass, that is, positrons (also known as anti-electrons, positrons).

At this point, Tel Aviv continues to make bold guesses with the temperament of a magician, beyond the content of the "Dirac Sea" on the earth. He believes that this ubiquitous "Negative Sea" is where magic and other extraordinary powers will exist. One of the reasons is that the essence of spiritual power, will, and magic pattern is to communicate with this "sea of ​​energy" in a special way, so as to obtain the power beyond imagination and change everything, so this is all kinds of magic and extraordinary power. The source of energy, and this also provides a certain idea for explaining the conservation of energy in magic.

Although a long time ago, the "Ice Witch" Helen quantitatively verified the energy conservation of spiritual power and magic: the amount of spiritual power consumed is equal to the energy initially contained in the magic, the reason why the destructive effect of some magic is far greater than the spiritual power The decrease is because they interact with the surrounding world in the actual reaction, causing chain changes, the most typical one is "Eternal Blazing Sun", but the question is, where can the mental power be replenished after consumption?

It is normal to use magic potions to help the recovery of mental power. No one doubts the source of energy, but the natural growth of mental power is quite strange. Whether it is the usual slow recovery or the rapid recovery under meditation, it is difficult to give Given a convincing source of energy, it's impossible to restore mental power out of thin air, right? Where there is an increase, there should naturally be a decrease, but no such phenomenon has been observed so far.

Prior to this, the Magic Council had two mainstream explanations for this issue. One believed that the recovery of mental power came from the soul's own reaction. In the most popular terms, the soul is equivalent to a magnetically confined controllable fusion reactor. It provides reliable energy for itself, but the problem that this explanation needs to face is still the same, even the fusion reactor needs raw materials, what does the soul consume to generate energy?

In this regard, Oliver, the most "romantic" Arcanist, proposed a model that seems to fit the phenomenon: the soul consumes the "self", and when the "self" is consumed, it is the end of life, so the magical power increases, and the soul Enhancement can delay aging and increase lifespan, so using various rituals can prolong life because they are replenishing the consumption of soul essence.

But this model has its own flaws, and even Oliver himself cannot fully agree with it. According to his theory, if magic is used as little as possible, or even no magic is used, the upper limit of life will be greatly increased, but in actual observations, magic is used less and frequently There is no essential life difference between the two types of arcanists who use magic.

Another mainstream explanation for the recovery of mental power is that energy comes from the "real world", and "meditation" is a way to connect and blend the soul with the "real world". This means that magicians can get feedback from the "real world" but other professions cannot. It can be confirmed initially.

As for where the "real world" is and how the energy is transmitted, that's another question.

But this can't explain the phenomenon that knights, magical creatures, etc. can also recover their own consumption, unless they are also "connected" to the "real world" but cannot get feedback from the "real world" for some reason.

Because the question of what the soul and the "real world" are has never been made, these two mainstream explanations are only at the stage of conjecture, without theories and formulas to support them.

On the other hand, Tel Aviv's "Negative Energy State Vacuum Ocean" model, based on the Lucian equation as the starting point, and based on the verifiable negative energy state and antiparticles, describes a ubiquitous energy ocean, using the simplest and most clear The way to explain the problem of mental power recovery.

"Meditation" is the soul's communication with the "ocean of negative energy". Because it is everywhere and its energy is almost unlimited, the soul can naturally absorb its energy to restore spiritual power, and the "real world" feedback is because the theory is more consistent with the reality of the world. As a result, the cognitive world has changed accordingly, and the communication with the "sea of ​​negative energy" has been instantly strengthened.

Similarly, this "sea of ​​negative energy" model also explains the reason why a small number of transformation magics require huge amounts of energy, but the energy required for the initial excitation is very little, especially after Lucien proposed the mass-energy formula, the transformation magic of this part The research directly led to some people questioning the law of energy conservation, but Helen designed a wonderful experiment, which proved that the non-conservation of energy in the general sense does not exist.

The significance of this model is so great that after Tel Aviv completed the main body of the thesis, he could not help but thank the Magic Council, His Excellency "Atom Control", the Lucien Equation, and the antiparticle conjecture. The "Negative Sea" model is affectionately known as "The Fountain of Magic" and "The Supernatural Sea".

"This is a paper of great significance, marking a new direction for arcanists to study the essence of magic..." Lucien roughly finished flipping through the paper and commented pertinently.

Under the illumination of the magic crystal lamp, Heidi's eyes sparkled like small crystals and said, "Teacher, do you approve of this model?"

"Accepted? There are no papers supported by experiments and phenomena. How can I accept it? It's just that his idea is very novel, which allows us to have another path that may explain the essence of magic, but it is not a wrong path or a wrong path. It still needs to be studied. Let mathematics and experiments do the talking." Lucien said with a smile.

Knowing that this model on Earth has been abandoned, he did not rush to refute.

On the one hand, Lucien himself is also exploring in the mist. The deeper he researches in the microcosmic field, the more he feels that the root cause of the differences between the two worlds must be here. The specific part remains to be explored in the future, so we cannot Because it is proven wrong on the earth, it is believed blindly, and it must be refuted with the experiments and derivations completed by oneself.

On the other hand, Lucien also hopes that this model can inspire arcanists and make them think more about the nature of magic—for a long time in the past, the research on the nature of magic has always been in a stagnant and difficult state. The vast majority of arcanists lack interest in this aspect, and don't think about why there is magic. Instead, they study the nature of the world on their own, create new magic and improve existing magic, hoping that they can "reach the same goal" in the future. And after Lucien proposed the observer effect in the microscopic field, this line of thinking seemed to be proved to be correct.

"The teacher is right. At present, this is only a possible model, but with it, it seems that the problem of the essence of magic does not need quantum pure state, superposition state and observer effect." Leiya fell into thinking, a little He said blankly, causing Heidi to chuckle. Is this saying that the teacher's "observer effect" conjecture is wrong? Well, Annick and Sprint must be very happy, their fancy for this paper is almost shown on the face.

Lucien smiled: "This can only explain the recovery of mental power in the essence of magic, but it cannot explain why it can communicate with the sea of ​​negative energy, why there are all kinds of strange spells, and this may be the observer effect and quantum magic. The range of pure state and superposition state."

Annick and Splinter had no other theory to explain this issue, so even if Lucien could see that they disagreed, there was no dispute.

"Any other papers?" Lucien asked casually, continuing to flip through the journals.

This chapter is about the major schools of magic that the Magic Council knows about magic, so the writing is a bit slow, but it is still delivered before midnight, please recommend tickets~
