The Pursuit of Knowledge
Chapter 309:The Pursuit of Knowledge
On the second day of the autumn, Roland received a secret letter from the king.
Ninety-nine of the letters delivered by the flight messenger were addressed to themselves by the pro-guard Tasha.
Unfolded notes on the bird’s paws, Roland went to the window, looking through the fine sunlight.
“Your Majesty, your plan has been an amazing success."
“Since the palace was quickly blocked and anyone was banned from entering and leaving, I couldn’t find out how the explosion would work.But by evening, almost all the inhabitants were aware of the attack on the palace, whether in the taverns, inns, or in the squares, where anyone had gathered, there was only one topic to discuss.Even when the king died, there was no such sensational impact.Coupled with your previous warnings, many people now even think that Tiffany has died in this attack, and you will soon come to the king's capital and become the new ruler of the gray castle."
This paragraph made Roland completely put his heart down - the bombing mission was successfully completed, the witch returned safely, there is no better news than this.
He made himself a cup of tea, and he went back to the redwood table and continued to look down.
"However, according to the information gathered so far, there has been no movement in the great aristocratic territories outside the royal capital, and the royal palace's response has been very rapid, so I suspect that Tiffico Wimbledon is probably still alive.""
"In addition, there are people who swear that the attack came from the sky, and some residents witnessed the shallow white object falling from the sky and fell into the royal palace at a very fast speed."So the task you gave me, I have already had a preliminary plan - if you can render this matter as a punishment imposed on the pseudo-king atrocity, I think many people will believe it."
"My recruits are full of energy, and on weekdays they collect a lot of tyrannical acts about Tiffany, which are now mixed together and must be more effective.I believe that in less than a month, this news will reach the ears of every cityman through the Black Street mouse."
"In addition, I will continue to closely monitor the movement of the Eastern Suburbs barracks, but in the current situation, Tfiko should not have time to take into account other measures to resist the attack.""
There was no signature at the end of the letter, and Roland put the letter in the drawer after reading it, and grew out of his tone.
It would be great if Dongfeng 1 could really deter Feico from sending troops.
After all, it is too wasteful to consume a large number of people in drug warfare, and the later the other side starts the consumption war one step later, the more opportunities it will win over the population.
Roland lifted the cup and took the fragrant black tea.All I have to do is wait for the witches to return.
I hadn’t seen Anna in days, and no one had stolen the fish in the drawer, and he felt a little unfit.
Just then, Carter pushed open the door of the office.
"Your Highness, there are two fleets at the dock."
“Is it the Marguery Chamber of Commerce?”Counting the time spent on the road, she missed a good play... and so on," Roland said, "and a fleet?"
"Yes," said Carter, laughing, "the messenger sent you to the south to recruit people has returned a group of horses."The vagrants they brought were almost full of piers, and the town hall was executing that with Miss Lucia, according to your plan...”
“The quarantine work.”
“Yes, that is, to eliminate the possible evil epidemics, etc.” the chief knight coughed twice, “this batch is about four or five hundred.”
“Yes?”Roland couldn't help but start his mouth, just now he was still talking about this matter, and now it is fruitful, it seems that Lian is responsible for the temporary resettlement room to add another batch, "let's go see."
**********************************************************************************
Kemo Squeer put down the thin fragment and kept repeating the words, "So it is."
“The teacher?”Chamez asked with some concern.
Since receiving this book "Medium Chemistry", Kemo has not slept for two days, and has almost read the whole ancient book all night.He also glanced at a few glances, but the above is too deep to understand.
"I am very good," the chief alchemist's voice was completely tired, but the spirit trembled, although there was a scale in the corner of his eye, but his eyes were burning, and he did not look like a person who had not slept all night.
This is a rule that a disciple should follow when he is delving into alchemy, and it is a rule that a disciple should follow, until then, Chames dares to ask for advice, "This book ... the disciple does not understand, what is the atom, and what is the electron?"
"If you are already a qualified alchemist, you should not call yourself a disciple, and according to Your Highness, we are now colleagues," Carmerton said. "As for your question, I don't know how to answer it...In fact, His Highness Roland also attached this book when he handed me the Medium Chemistry."
Chames looked at another book on his desk, with the words “The Theoretical Basis of Natural Science” written on the cover.
"Mr. Stir, sir," he was not accustomed to the title, "it seems to have nothing to do with alchemy... No, chemistry has nothing to do with it."
"I thought so too," said Camo, touching his beard, "but after turning a few pages, I found that I didn't know anything about the world."
“What?”Chames stood still.Know nothing?The alchemist studies the composition of objects, the nature of the elements, and if they do not know them, what is the difference between others and monkeys?
“I am referring to the idea,” the voice of the chief alchemist was full of excitement ... and contentment, “we think that alchemy is alchemy, that the study of matter is the study of matter, that the sun rises and sets, and the flower blooms and fades, all have nothing to do with us.”
“Isn’t that so... it is the astrologer who is good at observing the sun and the stars, but as for the plants,” said Chames, slightly disdainful. “Only the farmer and the drug-pickers will study it.”
“So we know nothing,” Kemo said, shaking his head, “and from the very beginning, this book tries to connect all things together, whether stones, flowers, or thunder, or fire, consists of unifying things and operates under uniform rules.Not only does chemistry react exactly according to the law, but so does the sun, and flowers bloom.This rule is so precise that as soon as the conditions are the same at the beginning, the results will be exactly the same, and chemistry is only a small part of it.”
“...how is that possible?”
“I can’t even imagine,” he spread out the periodic table, “that in medium chemistry it sets the shape of the element—the multitude of small balls around a large ball.The big ball determines what kind of element it is, the number of layers and numbers of the outer circle determines the characteristics of the element, and this list is arranged according to this law, and they are as neat as a soldier in a queue.I also fully understand the meaning of His Highness: why I have never seen or touched this element, and I can also deduce its nature and reaction mechanism.Because even the fundamental of the reaction is the gain and loss of the small ball, it does not involve the change of the big ball at all, which is the reason why the elements in the reaction will not disappear, but will only transfer."
Chames mused for a moment, “Do you... believe it?”
These theories are too subtle to be tested by the eyes, so how do the people who write books know?
"I don't know, so I can't answer your previous question," Kemo smiled, "but it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the point is that it provides a perspective from what I never imagined... It gives me another door, and it's not just chemistry on it."At this point, he said with a slight tone, "Unfortunately, your Highness has not been able to record it all."He may not know what he missed."
Chames did not understand these words, just as the terms of the alchemist were as if he were another language when he first became an apprentice, and now he feels the same way again.
But he is not worried that as long as he is with the teacher, he will be able to learn these so-called "internal connections of all things."Compared to the chief alchemist, the last thing he lacks is time.
After a moment's silence, Chames asked, "But why are the names of these books issued by His Highness different in color?"
The chief alchemist said, “This... I ignored it.”Is it self-indulbit?”But he quickly shook his head, "No, if it is black and red, these colors are particularly difficult to match, and it is unlikely to be unintentional."That is to say, your Highness deliberately made this way?”
Elementary Chemistry is blue, the foundations of natural science theory are blue, Elementary Mathematics is green, and the title of Medium Chemistry (Smutilation) is written in purple pigments.When looking alone, it is not prominent, but if it is placed together, it is particularly eye-catching.
“Maybe it’s for good looking, right?”Chambres speculated.(Unfinished.
