Meet the principal

Act 446. Anticipation

Rainbow Tower.

The top of the swirling clouds was uncertain, and there seemed to be thunder brewing. On the upper level of the top of the swirling clouds, the president of the Storm Council, Pluto Alterac, looked at the quiet Rainbow Tower outside through the storm, his brows furrowed. .

On his desk was the latest "Truth". This slightly heavy academic journal was opened, and he happened to turn to the page of the paper on the modification of the Newington-Holland equations for the ether drift experiment.

"The limit of the speed of light, the speed of light does not change, is this true..."

Alterac muttered to himself that he had already reviewed the first draft of this paper, but at that time, Newington had not included the content that the speed of light would not change due to changes in the reference system. At this time, Alterac was When Ke saw it, he was shocked.

Alterac immediately re-examined the modified Newington-Holland equations. Following the ideas of the paper, he quickly derived the same result.

This is unacceptable.

Because if the inference about light derived from the Newington-Holland equations is correct, then this means that the universality of the classical laws of kinematics is questionable. By extension, the tower of the entire law system is crumbling.

Not only that, this will be a disaster, the existing magic system will be completely subverted, people's understanding of the world will once again return to chaos, and it is very likely that a system will never be formed again.

This means that all the mages' existing theories may have holes that cannot be fixed.

Alterac sighed and looked back.

In the past, among the two dark clouds that permeated the magical world, the problem of black body radiation had been solved by Ludwig Stein, and then Reiner discovered the photoelectric effect, proposed the wave-particle duality of light, and solved the problem of mathematics. Ten years of discussion about the nature of light.

And how this earthquake caused by the ether drift theory will end, Alterac doesn't know.

"Sir Alterac, are you looking for me?"

Broly Augustine asked respectfully at the door of the office. There were thick documents floating around him. His long hair covered one eye, and he looked quite feminine.

"Have you read Newington's latest paper?"

Alterac asked. Although this paper was jointly published by Newington and Holland, in the eyes of most people in the Storm Council, Clark Holland was still a little immature, so they mentioned these two people. When speaking, most people just say Newington's name.

"I just finished reading, Lord Alterac."

Augustin replied as he walked into the office.

"The conclusion of this paper is really scary. Whether it is finally verified or not, it is undoubtedly a huge impact on classical magic. What I am concerned about is that if the speed of light is really the limit of this world, then our Exploration seems to have really hit a wall."

In the current understanding of the mages, light is the fastest thing. In the past, the mages have always felt that as long as they can provide enough energy, the speed can be made faster, even exceeding the speed of light. But currently, since The speed of light does not change in any reference system, so this seems to imply that the speed of light is already the speed limit in this world, and nothing can exceed the speed of light.

For mages, limit is a not-so-good word.

"yes,

And more importantly, we can't seem to find any good way to verify all of this. "

Alterac shook his head. There are some mages who have been focusing on studying how to make matter faster. They have studied a series of high-speed magic, but they have never been able to make objects faster.

At first, these mages thought it was a lack of magic power, so they used huge magic power as energy and reduced the mass of the target object. But even so, it was still far away from the speed of light.

If we look at Newington's conclusion, the speed of light seems to be the limit of speed in this world. It seems understandable that the efforts of those mages are difficult to achieve results.

But there is also a problem, that is, except for light, no object can reach the speed of light. The mages cannot experimentally verify what changes will occur when the object reaches the speed of light. Everything can only be done on paper. Calculated above, this is unacceptable to many practical mages.

The contradiction between the theoretical mages and the experimental mages seems to be forever irreconcilable.

"Is light really so special that all our past laws will fail in it?"

Augustine said with emotion.

The two dark clouds hanging over the head of the mage, a black body radiation problem and an ether drift problem, unexpectedly converged on light. The black body radiation problem explains the nature of light, while the ether drift problem goes to the characteristics of light, light, This thing that has existed since the birth of human civilization seems to have become the most important link in the forward development of magic and even mankind.

"Is there any news from Rainer Ingle?"

Oaklander asked casually. He didn't have any premonitions, but Reiner had completed too many subversive theories in the past year, and one had to look forward to what insights he would have on this issue.

"Not yet, Mr. Oaklander. He has not published any papers since he came back from the Eliot demiplane. However, according to some mages living in the Kingdom of Astor, he seems to have been studying a paper recently. This thing called a magic computer looks like it is used for mathematical calculations from the name, but in fact it seems to have more uses."

Augustine replied that he didn't care too much about Reiner, but for such a rising star, Augustine, as the vice-president of the Storm Council, would naturally be responsible for recruiting talents. Or pay less attention to Reiner's every move.

"He discovered the wave-particle duality of light, and he must have thought about the speed of light. This time he discovered protons and neutrons inside the atomic nucleus together with several legendary mages in Eliot's demiplane, and also predicted strong The existence of nuclear force seems to be going deeper into the microscopic world."

Elements, atoms and other particles are mostly the domain of alchemy mages. From this point of view, as a member of the Mercury Scale, it is natural for Reiner to study these.

"Indeed, when I saw the paper on the internal structure of the atomic nucleus, I even thought that this year's competition for the Hohenheim Gold Cup would have been settled at the beginning of the year. Unfortunately, this paper was a collaboration between many people, and the collaborators were even more famous. Legendary mages.”

Augustine nodded slightly, and his eyes fell on the tall tower standing alone in the distance.

"Linard Ingle, what kind of subversion will he bring to us?"...
