Night Raven Master

Chapter 82 Different worldviews, how to talk about philosophy

Two days later.

Arthur's mansion.

On the surrounding roofs, the inconspicuous crows hiding among the trees are guarding the surroundings.

And Art himself appeared in the basement of the mansion.

The basement, which was originally used as a warehouse, is now where Art conducts training and meditation.

[Character name: Black Crow (Art Angus Clauredo)
Occupation: Crow Mage (lv3), Night Wizard (lv4)

属性：力量（0.7）0.9，体质：（0.7）0.8，敏捷：（1.0）1.1，精神：1.7
Status: Tired]

Art, panting, wiped the sweat off his brow with a cloth.

During this month, his originally frail body has become much stronger. Although his physique and strength still haven't reached the adult standard, they are almost there.

However, it will not be easy to improve in the future.

A weak body can improve at a faster rate through exercise, but after improving to the current level, the improvement effect of exercise will become smaller and smaller, and the speed of progress will become slower and slower.

If you want to increase the value of 0.5 through exercise, it may take half a year to a year, or even two years.

Although physical exercise and training are also needed, he cannot completely rely on this, he needs some other means.

Just like curing totems and the like.

As Art thought, he wiped the nape of his neck with a cloth, revealing a little of the feathered totem tattoo under his open collar.

He has solidified the Eagle Wing Totem, but what he chooses is not an eagle monster, but a corvid monster.

He went to the mercenary guild and bought a tube of Blood Crow's blood and three feathers from a high-ranking professional for 25 silver coins.

[Passive Blood Crow Totem lv1: Over time, the agility and endurance will gradually increase, and the speed of wound healing will increase by 5%, and a weak bloodthirsty impulse will appear when seriously injured. 】

And the price is - all he has now is the blue blood gem that has become an ordinary gem, and 1 gold coin and 5 silver coins. Even if the scattered 13 copper coins are counted, he is still a pauper.

Blue Blood Gems cannot be sold for the time being.

And his mentor, after calling him over and saying a lot of unnutritious words, there was no movement.

As for the spell sequence, when Art asked him tactfully, he said, "I don't have the habit of collecting low-level spells, and at least you can learn them after you become an earl."

For such a reason, Art has to believe it or not.

In the end, the Duke of Quicksilver just threw him basic books on alchemy and potions.

This made Art feel slightly comforted, but when he smelled a rose-like fragrance from the book, his sense of security was instantly shattered.

These two books on alchemy and potions were basically the items of the Duke of Rose, or in other words, they were originally the books of Viscount Baixi.

When he opened the book and found the contents inside, he was even more sure. There were some pages marked by Viscount Baixi's handwriting.

[Apprentice Alchemy lv6: Apprentice-level alchemy textbook, version 43, published by the Arabella Alchemy Association, a relatively complete alchemy textbook. ——Apprentices don't need to know that much, it is enough to know what the nature is. 】

[Basics of Potions lv4: Apprentice-level Alchemy Reader, Potions Detailed Explanation Version 44, published by the Arabella Alchemy Association, a relatively complete Potions Reader. ——Apprentices don't need to know too much, they just need to know how to use it. 】

This is not the first time that Arabella, the name of the empire located on the Glorious Continent, has appeared in Yate's vision.

With this in mind, Art twisted his arms, put on his clothes, and prepared to leave the basement.

At this time, it should be the crow in front of the mansion, and the induction came.

Share vision!

Familiarly making a move, Art accepted what the crow servant saw.

In front of the yard, a handsome young man in a platinum robe, with a bright smile on his face, patted the gate of the yard:

"Art! Art! Are you there? I know you are! Hey, you shouldn't be avoiding me!"

Who is avoiding you? No, I really want to avoid you now.

Yate looked at the man with a bright smile on his face at the door: "Paladin Ahlius, I'm really not interested in philosophy."

"It doesn't matter, wizards basically reject the idea of ​​the holy religion, so let's talk about the 'evolutionary survival' inference proposed by Duke Passus of the Basatona Empire. Regarding this hypothesis, my opinion is this."

"The Duke of Passus proposed, 'No progress is retrogression, stagnation is extinction', species need to keep changing, or constantly become stronger, have stronger predatory capabilities, or enable themselves to hide better to ensure that they can get a chance to survive, or to give birth to more offspring."

The paladin named Ahrius expressed his opinion to Art with an excited expression on his face.

Looking at the paladin with some headaches, Art could not help but smile bitterly——

Because Aliasi came to him several times, and after several contacts, Art asked him for a book of teachings, a thick book called "Holy Light" to read.

Because I only knew that the Holy See of the Holy Light advocated the theory of "Holy Light created the world", I used to regard the Holy See of the Holy Light in this world as something similar to the Catholic Church of the previous life, but in fact, it is very different.

For example, the Holy See of the Holy Light scoffed at the theory that "the Creator controls everything", and they worshiped the "origin of everything" - the Holy Light.

However, they didn't apply the Holy Light to anything, and sayings like "the Creator created everything" and "what God is the greatest" are heresies to them.

Their highest philosophy is - "close to the source of everything, close to the holy light", that is where the truth lies.

When he understood this, Art was a little dumbfounded, and there was something weird in disbelief.

To put it simply, the Holy See of Holy Light is actually very similar to wizards.

"Church of Truth", it is no problem to put this name on the head of the Holy See of Light.

They believe that the source of everything is the Holy Light, and the Holy Light is the truth. What they pursue is the truth, not the personal God like Catholicism.

After reading more than half of "Holy Light", the believers of the Holy See of Holy Light are essentially another kind of wizard, another kind of researcher with powerful power.

For example, this paladin named Asius admired the evolutionary survival theory of the "Duke Passus", and from what he said, many people in the church also admired this theory.

Although he himself doesn't know much about philosophy, as a keyboard warrior who has been around the Internet all year round, he still has some insight into many theories.

The theory of this "Duke of Passus" is somewhat close to the "Red Queen Hypothesis" proposed by a scientist named "Lee Van Valen" in his previous life based on a fairy tale.

Central to the Red Queen hypothesis is the idea that competition among organisms leads to evolution—essentially, interspecific pressure—even if the environment remains the same.

In his time, this has long been incorporated into modern evolutionary theory.

That is to say, the "evolution theory" that has always been regarded as the mainstream "self-generated variation, the environment is responsible for selection, and species that are more adaptable to the environment survive" combines various factors such as environmental changes and interspecies pressure.

Art's headache is that he doesn't know much about the world.

He also cannot criticize and discuss this world with his previous life experience, because, in the final analysis, the "science" of his previous life is a fusion of empirical science + theoretical science, studying the nature of the world by studying objective laws.

For example, the difference between the geocentric theory and the heliocentric theory is essentially only the difference in the reference system and the difference in the universe model. If the earth is the reference center, then the world is also regular. However, this "law" is different from the "law" of the heliocentric theory. more complicated.

The theory of universal gravitation will never apply to the geocentric theory-after all, the mass of the sun and the mass of the earth, which one is larger?

All the cosmological constants that have been established now will almost collapse, and another cosmological constant will be more difficult to calculate, and even this difficulty will bring astronomy to a standstill.

But with the earth as the center and the sun as the star as the center, all the laws will become simpler and easier to analyze.

The simpler laws that are more in line with objective laws are the most respected.

However, can the laws obtained through the science of induction, collation, discussion, and deduction be applicable to this world?
The mere existence of supernatural power cannot be explained by the science of the previous life world.

Although he has been on the Internet all year round, and sometimes uses some half-understood theories to fool others, but he deeply understands one thing——

Various constants and rules belonging to "empirical science" do not apply to this world, and even "logic science" based on certain norms will present great challenges in this world.

The only thing that can be used is the method of studying the world - "theoretical science".

headache this is not the Middle Ages as he knows it
Art rubbed his brows. The current situation is that he, a guy with a different worldview from others, is discussing issues with scientists in this world.

The worldview is different, how to discuss it?
If you want to do this, you must first crush your own worldview, get rid of all viewpoints that are not suitable for this world, and slowly combine the applicable parts with the theory of existence in this world.

But where does he have the time now, it's too late to improve his strength, what kind of philosophy and science are he doing.

Relying on his unique world view, he fooled the paladin with a few words from the viewpoint of "evolution theory". After watching the other party fall into deep thought, Art was finally relieved.

However, within 2 minutes, the paladin raised his head:
"It's an interesting point of view, but"
