Doomsday Code

Chapter 54 Calculation

Looking at Finier's troubled little face, Chen Cheng couldn't help but smile.

Finier was unable to utter a word for a long time, and when she saw the smile on Chen Cheng's face, she suddenly became angry, thinking that Chen Cheng was mocking her. She curled her lips in anger and said:

"Why are you laughing? Magic... Magic can help us handle daily affairs better?"

Finally, Finier managed to utter these words with some lack of confidence, but Chen Cheng smiled with satisfaction and said:

"That's right, magic is a tool that can help us handle things better."

Chen Cheng knew that this was a cognitive breakthrough for Finier, and the reason why civilization and technology could progress was because countless predecessors broke the old cognition and discovered new horizons.

Most of the old, deeply rooted cognitions come from self-imprisonment of thought, and among them, theocracy is the most steadfast.

The biggest cognitive obstacle to the development of modern science and technology is theological thinking. Under the old thinking, everything in the world was created by God, people need to fear God, and God cannot be broken.

Only by breaking the understanding of God will people know that this world is composed of basic particles such as atoms and molecules, and human birth is not the six reincarnations controlled by ghosts and gods.

Modern science has broken these cognitions. In just a few hundred years, technology has exploded and increased exponentially. Humans have quickly transitioned from animal power to thermal power, and from only being able to walk on land and sea to flying into the sky and the universe.

All of this was originally controlled only by gods and could not be touched by mortals.

However, cognition was broken, and human wisdom allowed people to see the essence of the world, and later generations had the means of God in the legend.

Flying into the sky, hiding underground, moving mountains and filling the sea, and transmitting sound over thousands of miles.

Of course, the most difficult thing is often to break the old cognition. Many predecessors have become martyrs on this road.

But he will be missed by all who come after them.

When Finier heard Chen Cheng's definition of magic, she was surprised. She didn't expect Chen Cheng to be so bold and actually look at the sacred magic in this way.

Looking at Finier's surprised expression, he knew he couldn't ask any more questions. Cognition is just like world views.

If a person's three views are shattered at once, then it is undoubtedly like dropping an atomic bomb on the spiritual level of that person.

But now he is not a psychologist, and cannot lead Finier, whose worldview is shattered, onto the right path.

He began to explain magic in plain language.

"It is a tool in our daily life, but it is different from ordinary tools. Its use and purpose are much more convenient and faster than ordinary tools.

For example, the clothes we wear are made of silk threads. When silk threads are turned into clothes, their purpose of use also changes.

The same silk thread can also be woven into silk fabrics such as trousers, handkerchiefs, bed sheets, etc.

The same is true for magic. They are all made up of lines, and then form the magic we need.

It’s just that turning silk threads into clothes requires a long weaving process, while magic can be done with just a simple combination of patterns.”

Finier seemed to understand what he said, but a genius is a genius. She directly grasped the key points of Chen Cheng's words and said:

"So according to what you mean, magic is actually composed of those patterns, so as long as the patterns are matched correctly, different magic can be used.

This is just like silk fabrics. According to different needs, silk threads are woven into clothes, pants, handkerchiefs, etc. "

After hearing this, Chen Cheng nodded affirmatively.

It was also the first time that Finier heard Chen Cheng's theory. In the past, mentors would tell them that magic came from the Sea of Magic, which was an ocean of magical wisdom bestowed by God. All magic was sacred and could not be changed.

But now Chen Cheng broke this argument and told her that magic is just a tool, and the accessories that make up this tool are those magic patterns. As long as you know the function of the patterns, all the magic doors will be open to you.

At this time, Chen Cheng knew that he had to stop here with the matter that shocked Finier's worldview. He would then begin to teach Finier how to engrave her own variable magic.

..............................

At this moment, the Church of Light was packed with people coming to pray.

This disaster caused heavy losses to the entire Huidun territory, not only in terms of finance but also in terms of population.

Because of Jamil's previous support and command on the city wall, he and the church attracted a lot of attention.

After the crisis, the people in the city naturally flocked to the church, praying to God to allow their deceased relatives to ascend to heaven.

And Hodos, who had also just taken office as a priest, had also gained a lot of merit in the church thanks to the prayers of these people. He did not expect that being brought up to take the blame and attracting the hatred of Earl Huidun would turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

At this time, in the backyard of the church, Jamil, holding the doctrine in his hands, had been standing here for a long time. The background and strength revealed by Huidun Academy this time really scared the bishop who had been hiding for many years.

He always thought that his peak platinum strength could overwhelm the entire Huidun City, and he was sent here to monitor the Prince of Huidun.

But now, especially now that Adolf has unleashed a strength that is comparable to his own, and there is also a platinum-level shield magic circle that can cover the entire city.

Especially at the end, when Adolf and Penbes' domains merged and exploded, he could feel a palpitation even though he was far away on the city wall.

Jamil gives people the feeling that he looks several years older.

"Sgerlt, am I really useless? I just eliminated the small scum around Huidun and I was so smug that I didn't even notice that his biggest trump card was right in front of me."

To be honest, Jamil was really discouraged at this time. He never thought that Adolf and Huidun, who were rumored to be at odds with each other, would actually unite.

What really frustrated him was not the strength of the two men. They had plenty of masters to teach.

What really frustrated him was that these two people had joined Huidun and were also members of the Continental Academy Alliance.

This identity meant nothing in the past, but now that the two have demonstrated the integration of their fields, their weight in the college alliance will increase dramatically.

The Continental College Alliance can be said to control the college resources of the entire continent.

They are an alliance formed by top executives from colleges across the continent, and have close cooperation with every kingdom on the continent.

It can be said that in terms of strength and relationships, the College Alliance is above the Church.

Because the number of strong talents the alliance sends to the continent every year is an astronomical number, and these people join various organizations and countries after graduating from the academy.

Because of the teacher-student relationship with the alliance members, a super network of relationships spanning the continent has been formed.

However, the Knight of Light, Sgert, who was guarding behind Jamil, shook his head and said:

“Your Excellency the Bishop, according to what I have said, Adolf and the others are actually not important. No matter how strong Adolf and Penbes are, they are still under the jurisdiction of the School of Magic.

Moreover, it had been heard that Adolf had some complaints about Huidun and Melinda's marriage, and Penbes and Huidun did not have many interactions.

Just before, when Huidun asked to become his disciple, he refused and only treated him as a student in the academy.

Moreover, the reason why the two of them took action this time was because the alchemist was too bold and actually wanted to destroy the entire Huidun City.

What we really need to be wary of is the person who helped Adolf and the others set up the magic circle."

Of course, some of what Skjoldt said was true and some was false.

The news that Huidun became Peng Beis' apprentice was naturally spread by Huidun himself. He had learned from the last lesson and knew that sometimes an inadvertent word could mislead the enemy.

But Sgert was able to obtain this information in such a short time, and he had to admire the church's intelligence capabilities.

Jamil looked at him and asked:

"Are you saying that they set up this magic circle temporarily?"

Jamil's inner anxiety was alleviated a lot by Sgert's words, but he didn't expect that the defensive magic circle was actually set up temporarily.

"That's right, Bishop. If it had really been set up long ago, then with the temperaments of Adolf and the others, they would have activated the magic circle long ago.

Moreover, the students and instructors who arrived later also said clearly that they were previously called upon by Adolf to draw magic patterns.

Adolf and Penbes are only platinum-level magicians. It is absolutely impossible for them to set up a platinum-level magic circle that can cover the entire city in a short period of time, even with the help of those instructors and students.

So I am sure there must be a master behind them who is in charge of the formation."

After Sgert's analysis, Jamil, who was originally very arrogant, regained some confidence.

Afterwards, he also sighed in his heart that he had lost his mind so easily when he saw the magic shield.

After determining the target, Jamil's decadent mood disappeared. Now he should plan what benefits this crisis can bring to the church and himself, and at the same time how he can throw dirty water on Huidun in it.

Jamil calmed himself down, went to his desk, spread out the letter paper and began to write down the whole process of this incident. After Sgert's analysis, he could think that Huidun must want to gain more benefits after this incident, otherwise he would really have no capital to fight with other princes this time.

Jamil chuckled. Since he had guessed what Huidun had written, he had to help the Earl this time and praise him in the report.

The next moment, Jamil's ideas flowed like a spring, and he wrote with divine power. He wrote eloquently and eloquently, and praised Huidun so much that he was the best in the world. At the same time, the compliments in his words were about to overflow from the paper. He almost wrote, "King, you are old and it's time to abdicate and let others take over."

The whole article was written in one go. After he put down his pen and read it through, he was amazed at his own literary talent.

"Such a good manuscript is a bargain for you, Huidun."

A sneer appeared on Jamil's lips.
