[Comprehensive] The painting style of time travel is wrong

In Tang Xuening's original world, there were countless people who sought after mysteriously.

What is "great power belongs to itself".

What is "not fake foreign objects".

In short, in their mouth, as long as it is mysterious power, it is something better and more advanced than science.

the reason is simple:

Things that science can't explain are of course "advanced" than science.

As for the girl—well, she used to be fascinated by this statement.

Back then, she hadn't experienced the test of iron and fire, but she also imagined that she was dressed in white clothes and had white skin like fat. Under the eyes of countless women who envied and hated her, she would cuddle up against a tyrannical, cool and tyrannical woman with softness and bonelessness. In the arms of the domineering immortal.

And now...

A certain girl with titles such as "Valkyrie of the Battlefield", "Dawn of the Night", "Sage of the Earth" and other titles in a different world expressed contempt on her face:

Hmm, can I trouble you to find a record describing Newton's classical mechanics equations from those "advanced goods" in your mouth?

I don't even understand the nature and operation principle of my own power. The older the technique, the more powerful it is, and the mysterious users can only hide in the dark. Ashamed to claim to be more advanced than science?

Whoops, far away.

So what exactly is the mystery?

Unfathomable, unfathomable, things that ordinary people cannot understand are mysterious.

From this point of view, science can also be regarded as a kind of mystery-a mystery known, accepted and recognized by most people.

It uses rational methods to reveal the underlying operating mechanism through various phenomena.

In this sense, as long as those mysterious knowledge can be learned, passed down and understood by human beings, it may be included in the category of "science".

Even though there may be some things that cannot be studied due to insufficient external conditions, it does not mean that those things are unscientific (Note 1).

But again, for scientific research, the more you know, the more you don't know, just like when a girl is studying the voodoo magic of Professor Blackbeard, she can always feel a vague sense of disobedience:

She still couldn't understand why at a certain time and at a certain prepared ritual place, sacrifices and spells could wake up the dead and make them Bodak?

Why can the hair of a specially treated rag doll synchronize the injury of the rag doll to the owner of the hair?

Just as she couldn't understand why those high-paid alchemists, those who she thought were chemists, actually succeeded in making red dwarves by relying on a pile of garbage materials she looked at (Note 2) Same.

It seems that this world has another set of "mysterious" side rules that are completely different from the "common sense" world rules besides people's daily life...

But behind these different rules, there is a shadow of "God" (Note 3).

That being the case, there are some questions that are better to be asked than to guess by oneself—those gods, and Barbosa happens to know such a person:

When a group of people walked into the hut full of weird decorations by the river, the witch with dark brown skin and black braids was already sitting behind a wooden table with countless candles, waiting for everyone to visit.

Tia Dalma, a mysterious witch, a woman who has a wonderful relationship with many pirates, is of course also the humanoid body of Calypso, the goddess of the sea.

"What do you do for the lost dogs?"

Dalma smiled and spat out words that were like venom:

"If you want to ask about your fate, I can only say that you are doomed. It is your end that every bone is burned to ashes by the Spaniards.

— but we might be able to..." (Note 4)

"Sorry, I've had too many deals with people recently, I want to relax a little bit."

While Tang Xuening rejected the other party's deal without hesitation, she pulled open the armchair and sat down across from Dalma.

"I have a few questions to ask you, a powerful witch—or god."

"Oh? No one has regarded me as a god for a long time..."

After speaking, Dalma glanced at Barbossa behind the girl.

"I'm a pirate~"

Barbossa returned a smile that could stop a child from crying at night.

"Another stupid mortal trying to get his hands on the power of the gods?"

Ignoring the rascal Barbossa, Dalma looked at the girl and asked:

"So what do you want? God's power? Magical treasure? Anything else?"

"No, that's not what I'm after."

The girl also responded with a smile:

"I just wanted to ask a few questions."

"question?"

Darma asked:

"You want to know your own fate?"

"My fate? I don't think you can predict that..."

She never believed in fate, not at all—with the alien's golden finger of reincarnation, she has absolute confidence that she can reverse any fate.

Similarly, as a participant in the alien show, she didn't feel that the indigenous goddess on the opposite side could help her get out of this damn show safely.

——At least as far as the girl knows, if the human beings in her world really face that "program group", they will never have a third posture except kneeling and licking and throwing themselves on the street, while the "goddess" opposite "Even if it was because of the betrayal of the ghost Davy Jones, it cannot be denied the fact that it was sealed by a group of pirates.

And what she wants to know is something else:

"Excuse me, what is God?"

"..."

The moment she heard the girl's question, Dalma, who was originally indifferent, changed her face. She stood up abruptly and grabbed the girl's arm.

In an instant, the girl's arm showed the appearance of a skeleton that would only appear under the moonlight, but this time it was far more than that—like burnt wood, black traces mixed with sparks began to spread downward from the girl's fingertips:

"Don't think that your undead bodies that are cursed are nothing special, they are nothing in the eyes of the gods!"

But in the next moment, accompanied by the severe pain in the jaw, the world in Dalma's eyes spun, and when she finally recovered from the severe pain, she had already been held back by the girl with her left hand stuck around her neck, and she was lying face down on the floor.

"Miss God, please calm down, you probably don't want this meeting to end in blood, do you?"

"I curse you from now on..."

Before Dalma could finish her sentence, she stepped on the back of her head with one foot, causing her entire face to be slammed on the floor, and then a dagger was nailed to the floor by rubbing against her neck.

"Please be quiet..."

The girl waved back Barbossa and the casual pirates who had already drawn their weapons, and then asked:

"I ask again, what is God?"

"...God is the existence that controls the rules that you mortals cannot understand."

After a moment of silence, Darma replied.

"So, don't think that death can threaten a god!"

"Mastering rules beyond the comprehension of mortals?

It is really strange to say this from the mouth of a personal god (Note 5) who fell in love with a mortal, gave a mortal the power to complete the work that originally belonged to you to attract the soul, and was defeated by the mortal in the end. "

The girl commented on the answer with a strange expression, which was hard to say

——If humans cannot understand, then what is it that an incomprehensible being falls in love with humans?

She wisely did not continue to dwell on this question, and then asked a second question:

"So, how was the god born?"

"Ha ha……"

But this time, facing this question, Dalma just sneered.

"It seems that she is not going to say it."

Seeing Dalma's performance, Barbosa shook his head, walked up to the girl with his saber and said:

"Then kill her—I don't want to be cursed by her inexplicably in the future, do you need me to do it for you?"

"...No, forget it, I think there will be a chance to use her in the future."

But the girl stood up after a pause, and very gentlemanly helped Dalma up with a gloomy face.

"Mortals, don't think that this will make me forgive you! The wrath of the ocean will..."

After getting up, Dalma slapped the girl's palm away in a very unlucky manner, and her shouting while looking around at everyone present suddenly stopped——Barbossa's sword pointed at her neck.

"I think we should get rid of her. It's not a good idea to keep a god who is against us."

Barbossa slightly tilted his head and asked the girl.

"If you want to kill the grass, you would have done it long ago after you sealed her, and Miss Goddess has calmed down, hasn't she?" (Note 6)

The girl smiled and motioned for Barbossa to put down the sword, then shrugged at the former sea goddess, but Dalma turned her head away after a cold snort.

"Then Miss Dalma, before our uninvited guests leave, I have one last personal question I would like to ask..."

"After asking, get out!"

"I heard that you fell in love with Davy Jones back then, and Davy Jones would dig out his heart to fulfill your promise to land on land every ten years—but why did he go to you on that only free day, You disappeared?"

The serious expression of the girl when she spoke was as if she was not gossiping but discussing state affairs.

"..."

This time, Dalma remained silent for a long time with a lonely expression, and subconsciously caressed the pendant on his chest.

"Because that's my nature, the nature of the ocean—it's always capricious..." (Note 7)

"Excuse me for sharing my feelings."

The girl said sarcastically:

"Then may I ask, how can a god who can't even control his own nature be nobler than stupid mortals?"

After finishing speaking, the group left the hut, leaving Dalma stunned in place who didn't know how to answer this question.

The author has something to say: Note 1: For example, in HP, in the Middle Ages, without an electron microscope, it is impossible to study which or which fragments of DNA gave birth to wizards. There is no inductance, magnetic induction, and precise measuring instruments. It is also impossible to determine the source of magic energy.

Note 2: It is a bit similar to the "little man in a bottle" in the steel smelting. It is a sign of a powerful alchemist to create that legend, but it is said that the raw materials are not harmonious. I will not write in detail.It is very strange that there are really many records (although not official history) about the "little man" in history. For example, there are records that people saw the famous physicist Bohr make a red dwarf.The most famous dwarf legend was crafted by the Australian 16th-century alchemist Joan Phydillard along with Abel Greely.They made a total of ten dwarfs in five weeks, as recorded in Emer Bestny's The Sphinx.As mentioned in the previous chapter, (this is likely to be fabricated by later generations, because in the 5th century, Australia had no residents at all except for a few Portuguese natives, and there was no civilization at all! Thanks to all the book friends for helping to catch insects)

Note 3: The prequel novel mentioned that the cursed gold coin in Barbossa’s hand was the result of the curse of the Aztec gods, and Davy Jones was directly because the goddess of the sea had power, and the location of the fountain of youth was in an ancient god. temple……

Note 4: Here she actually wants to reach a deal with the girl—similar to the contract she made with Barbosa at the end of 2: Barbosa helps her return to the gods, and she helps Barbosa resurrect.

Note 5: Refers to the legendary gods with the seven emotions and six desires of human beings. Those in ancient Greece who can be defeated by powerful human warriors are representatives. The Tiangong and Gaotianyuan gods in the East are actually personal gods, but in my opinion, this kind of god is not so much A "god" is more like a person with great power.

Note 6: In the original work, those who can be pushed away by a few ordinary pirates do not seem to retain much divine power.But it's also weird wondering why the pirates just sealed her?Even if there were reasons for Davy Jones at the time, there should be many assassinations afterwards, right?So either this person can't die (although I think there are too many ways to make life worse than death), or there is some reason why he can't die.

Note 7: In Greek mythology, Calypso, the sea goddess, was imprisoned by her father on the island of Ogygia, and said to her that "you will fall in love with the heroes who landed on the island, but those heroes will never stay" curse.But having said that, isn't this saying that this person is meeting someone who loves someone?
