Chapter 2413 Change the past now, the curtain will open

In front of the experimental table, Douglas's raised hands were visibly trembling, and he was obviously a little unable to accept the result. However, everything was designed according to his vision and completed by him himself. There were no omissions or other influences in the process. The result was Authentic and trustworthy.

The purpose of Ivan Vinson's original thought experiment was to prove the "observer effect"! Although this cannot rule out other causes besides the "observer effect", it also forces all arcanists to face the possibility of the "observer effect". At least until other theoretical explanations are found, they can no longer ignore " Observer effect”!

Douglas stabilized his hands, which seemed to be spreading, and repeated the experiment again. The converted interference fringes were still clear as before. Once, twice, three times, five times later, Douglas raised his head and spoke solemnly and slightly lowly.

"Reproducibility shows that there is no problem with the experimental results. After today, arcanists can apply to use these devices and repeat this experiment."

In the live broadcast room, there was deathly silence. Some members of the Supreme Council were still in a state of confusion and resistance. Most of the legendary magicians such as Brooke, Fernando, Hathaway, Helen, Oliver and Vicente showed contemplative expressions. , after being shocked and shocked, they chose to think about whether they could find other explanations besides the "observer effect".

In the Arcane Research Institute, Heidi's face was full of shock. She was overturned by the experimental results and murmured.

"Observer effect! Is there really an observer effect?"

This experiment was designed to verify the existence of the observer effect, and the results of the experiment clearly made people feel this.

"At least it is caused by our own observations, not gods. The fate is still in our own hands."

"The quantum erasure experiment is completed. Next, we will conduct the second and final experiment, the delayed selection experiment. We still have to make a deformation of the traditional electron double-slit interference experiment to better highlight the results."

Glass put away his solemn expression, and his tone was kind, containing a little solemnity.

"In the above experiment, when the electron exhibits wave properties, it obviously passes through two gaps and two paths at the same time, thus interfering with itself. When it exhibits particle properties, it must only pass through one of the gaps and one path, then What would happen if we didn't make our choice until the electron had actually chosen its path but not yet reached the display? Would we have observed the electron coming from two paths, or from one?"

In the holy city of Lance, Pope Viken restrained his previous joy and looked at Douglas with a blank face as he arranged this experiment. What exactly did this experiment want to prove? He didn't think anything unexpected would happen. What should be shocking was already shocking. This experiment seemed more like refuting a bold hypothesis.

Rudolf II sat back on the throne in the White Maple Leaf Palace and looked at the experiment pictures quietly. He had a bad premonition in his heart for some reason.

Does Ivan Vinson want to prove that current observations can affect what has happened in the past? This is an even more exaggerated idea than turning back time! The past is fixed, how can it be changed?

Douglas started the experiment, the detector sent out a signal, and the electrons came through a path. This experiment is repeated over and over again, proving again and again that electrons only come through one path after going through the previous steps.

Suddenly, when the electron had completed the previous steps and had not yet reached the detector position, Douglas quickly added a new experimental device, indicating that we wanted to select volatility. At this time, the detector in the other direction sounded at the same time as the current detector, and the sound of beeping was endless.

Douglass turned pale, for He knew exactly what this meant! This shows that when we make a choice, the electrons that have determined only one path come from both directions, and what happened in the past changes! Our observations change the electron's past experience!

The magic notes and quills held by most of the top panel members in the live broadcast room fell to the ground one after another. A chill and trembling from the depths of their souls left them speechless. This was more exaggerated and magical than any magic. , still incredible! Even the great arcanists such as Brooke and Fernando looked a little confused at this time. How could this be possible? Do present choices determine past experiences?

The sound of things breaking could be heard throughout the entire city of Aline, but no one spoke. It was like a silent city. Faced with such experimental results, no arcanist will not feel confused, will not feel that the three views are collapsed, and will not feel that everything is like an illusion! Many of them were rubbing their heads, as if they wanted to crush their heads, so that they would not feel so painful and desperate. If this did not involve the structure of their cognitive world, there would definitely be corpses, blood, and brains everywhere by now. Very few Arcanists of level 1 and above will be spared. Even so, they felt the collapse of their concepts, and felt that they no longer knew the world, and their eyes were filled with darkness.

A violent explosion occurred in the White Maple Leaf Palace, and the most glorious and majestic palace became ruins. Among the ruins, Rudolf II was covered in scars and muttered to himself like crazy.

"Determinism, the law of cause and effect! The law of cause and effect, determinism!"

I don’t know how long it took before Rudolf II calmed down, but he knew clearly that if he wanted to return to godlike status now, he could only hope for a miracle, or with the help of the Paradise Mountain under the control of Viken, because His outlook on life completely collapsed. The most outstanding genius in the ancient magic empire, the first strong man in history to find the path to being like a god, Sun King Thanos truly understood why Ivan Vincent was called the Destroyer of Three Views!

In the holy city of Reims, Viken was equally confused and disbelieving at first, and then he laughed like crazy and was extremely excited.

"The observer effect, reversing the law of cause and effect on the timeline, changing the past now, I understand, I understand!"

Viken's laughter was undisguised, and the two cardinals guarding outside the study looked at each other, wondering why the live broadcast of the Magic Council made His Majesty the Pope laugh so exaggeratedly. Could it be that after Douglas became a god-like person, his head suddenly went bad and he publicly announced his surrender to the church on the live broadcast?

After Viken laughed a few times, he regained his composure and calmed down his expression. After all, this was an experiment completed by Douglas. The results cannot be 100% believed. What if he deliberately deceived him? It's better to wait until you repeat it a few times and confirm the truth before considering the next plan.

The experimental design this time is not complicated. The difficulty lies in the subtle control and production. This is not too complicated for Pope Viken, who is also a god, has a profound alchemical foundation, and has long been concerned about and studied arcana. The biggest difference between him and the Grand Arcanist is not in his hands-on ability, but in the way of thinking cultivated by the arcane system. Therefore, he cannot design such an experiment and can only rely on paying attention to the research progress of Douglas, Lucien and others.

In the live broadcast room, Douglas repeated the experiment and obtained the same result, but he did not stop, but continued mechanically, without any expression on his face.

It wasn't until Ivan Vinson coughed twice that Douglas sighed, stopped the experiment, and said solemnly to the entire audience.

"I think the most basic point of view of an arcanist should be to respect experiments and phenomena, and everything should be based on them and mathematics."

Douglas's words were equivalent to announcing something. The arcanists participating in the live broadcast seemed to suddenly be unable to support their bodies with their feet, and sat softly on the ground. It was as if their past knowledge, common sense, and instincts could no longer support them. their world outlook, outlook on life and values.

In Alinene, Rentatne, wherever the live broadcast can be seen, the arcanists have more or less behaved like this, especially the magicians who are good at astrology, crying silently, As if mourning the passing of determinism and the possible destruction of the law of causality, unspeakable sadness, wandering, confusion and despair enveloped the Sky City and the major Magic Council branches.

"The most important thing for us now is to figure out why this result occurs. We must know that microscopic particles are substances that can permeate anywhere. Maybe we can get explanations from other directions instead of forcing ourselves to believe that the present can change the past."

Douglas looked around the live broadcast room and saw that Brooke, Fernando and a few other legendary magicians were thinking about the problem with solemn faces, while other arcanists had fragile and confused expressions, so he thought about it before speaking cautiously.

In Holm Palace and Nexor Palace, Natasha was still standing in front of the small live broadcast screen in a daze, looking forward and constantly turning the Sword of Truth in her hand.

"What's wrong?"

Ivan Vincent felt a little strange when he saw Natasha's reaction. With her level of arcane magic, even if she was shocked, she wouldn't be in a daze for so long, right?

Natasha seemed to have just woken up from a dream, her silver-purple eyes were shining, looking at Ivan Vincent, and said with some thought.

"Although this delayed choice experiment cannot conclusively prove that the law of causality can be destroyed, I am wondering, is the Sword of Truth based on this principle? The law of causality is destroyed, so any means of resurrection are ineffective?"

Ivan Vincent looked at her with a serious expression and looked her up and down, which made Natasha, who was always confident and determined, slightly stunned. Could she have guessed it right?

This quiet and solid atmosphere passed for a few minutes, and just when Natasha couldn't help but continue speaking, Ivan Vincent suddenly laughed and said.

"You think too much!"

"Really? This is not my strong point!"

Natasha didn't receive any blow and acted as if it were natural.

"The Sword of Truth has certain high-dimensional characteristics and can erase and kill all traces of existence. The elimination bloodline in your body can eliminate the source of extraordinary power such as magic by blocking the connection between the two universes!"

Ivan Vincent once again told some secrets related to the reality of the world, but Natasha couldn't understand the meaning. Her eyes were filled with circles and she was confused. She felt that every word Ivan Vincent said, she I understood everything, but I didn’t understand a word!

In June of the 830th year of the Holy Calendar, the weather was like fire, burning everything. The famous city of the Kingdom of Syracuse, Anhadur, Cathedral of the Redemption.

An archbishop anxiously wandered in front of the prayer room, waiting for the cardinal to receive him.

"Why haven't you finished praying yet? Traces of a new cult have been discovered in a nearby manor!"

The archbishop paced back and forth, touching his head and sighing. Recently, cults have emerged one after another. As soon as one was attacked, another one appeared immediately, causing his hair to turn gray early in his youth.

"And this cult seems to be able to summon high-level evil beings. If you don't take action, I'm afraid it will be difficult to completely eradicate it with just a few people from the Inquisition."

The archbishop became increasingly anxious as he thought about the imminent siege over there, and decided to muster up the courage to knock on the door to urge him. Dong-dong-dong, the archbishop bent his fingers and knocked on the door, but as soon as he exerted force, the door moved back with a creak and opened a gap.

"Not closed?"

The Archbishop had a bad feeling and hurriedly pushed the door open and looked inside. Then, his vision froze. In front of the cross in the prayer room, a torn cardinal's robe was lying there quietly, with strange burn marks on it.

"My lord, my lord has been swallowed by the holy light?"

The Archbishop muttered to himself blankly. This was not because of his sharp reaction, but because in the past six months, as the results of the two thought experiments of Ivan Vinson, the Destroyer of Three Perspectives, had spread, dozens of cardinals were praying. Being swallowed up by the holy light makes everyone feel fear and their faces change color when they mention the name Ivan Vincent.

In the Great Hall of Light in the Holy City of Reims, Benedict IV slowly raised his platinum scepter, his expression becoming solemn.

Upon seeing this, all the members of the College of Cardinals immediately knelt down, drew the cross on their chests, and prayed devoutly.

"Only the truth lasts forever!"

This is the posture the pope uses when he announces the Lord’s oracle!

Benedict IV's tone was full of sincere gratitude and he said it very piously.

"Although I am in the god-like realm, I still have many hidden dangers. The phenomenon of uncontrollable and separation of negative emotions occurs because when I hit the god-like step, the power of negative emotions is not equal to the power of faith."

"The Lord sent an oracle and told me how to solve the hidden dangers of being promoted to the god-like realm."

After Douglas was promoted to a godlike person, magicians had a way to be promoted to a godlike person. Under pressure, Viken also revealed to the members of the College of Cardinals some of the secret knowledge on how to become a godlike person with the help of faith.

Santa Maria frowned subconsciously, showing a thoughtful look.

"Not equal? ​​They are all unreal spiritual powers. How can they not be equal?"

"Because behind the power of faith is Heaven Mountain, the projection of Heaven Mountain will appear when it attacks gods, and the power of negative emotions will only condense the seven ancient devils. How can they be equal to Heaven Mountain? So the balance is lost. There are hidden dangers left.”

Benedict IV explained expressionlessly, with an inexplicable color deep in his eyes that the members of the College of Cardinals did not notice at all.

"Then how can we be equal?"

Cardinal Philibert asked, which was their biggest concern because they believed that sooner or later they would reach the point of becoming godlike.

Benedict IV put down his platinum scepter and nodded gently.

"More ancient devils are needed, and they need to condense the ancient hell, and this requires your cooperation. I can't do it by myself. In fact, this is completely consistent with the core of our god-like method, gathering the power of the crowd , turning weak into strong.”

For some reason, when hearing Benedict IV's words, Philibert and other members of the College of Cardinals thought of Ivan Vinson's paper and the predictions in it, the evolution of weak observers to strong observers!

"Your Majesty, what should we do?"

Saint Katie spoke. This kind of thing must ask every step clearly. After all, it involves oneself. What if the attempt fails and one's ancient devil loses control?

"According to my guess, this kind of cohesion will cause corresponding changes in the ancient hell. After that..."

Benedict IV told him his arrangements one by one, without hiding anything. After carefully identifying the key, the members of the College of Cardinals agreed thoughtfully and left the Great Hall of Light to make preparations. When all their figures disappeared from the Great Hall of Light, Pope Benedict IV was still standing there, his eyes dim. He stared at the door gloomily.

…

In the holy city of Reims, at the bottom of the Great Hall of Light, there is an extremely wide underground hall. There is an old cross placed at the top of the hall, full of vicissitudes of time. In addition, there are only candlesticks full of rust in the entire hall. This was the first adult of the Cult of Truth when it secretly preached. A large missionary.

At this time, the dim candlelight on the candlesticks was all lit up. Twelve members of the College of Cardinals, including St. Cati, Santa Maria, Philibert, and Estila, were standing in every corner, in the center of the hall. , there is a strange three-dimensional figure that is very different from the normal magic circle and magic circle. It is like a collection of children's graffiti.

In this strange magic circle, Benedict IV, holding a platinum scepter, was pacing back and forth and checking constantly, while Santa Maria and other members of the College of Cardinals were also carefully identifying and confirming that they would not be sacrificed after activating the magic circle. , will not be swallowed up, and they are not fools. After the propaganda of the Magic Council, they also have some doubts about Viken's true identity.

"Are you ready?" Ben

Du IV asked in an erratic tone.

After confirming again and again that it was correct, Estila, Philiber and others said in unison.

"His Majesty the Pope, you are ready!"

Benedict IV suddenly turned around, turned his back to the old cross, and said solemnly.

"Then let's get started."

Saint Katie hesitated for a moment, then spoke to persuade.

"His Majesty the Pope, do you want to wait a little longer? Such an attempt is very dangerous. Even if you are a god, you may suffer heavy damage and fall into a deep sleep. It is better to make a few more miniaturized simulation attempts."

What Katie is worried about is that if the accumulation of negative emotions and ancient devils fails to summon the ancient hell, then after the Pope suffers a heavy blow, he is likely to be devastated by organizations such as the Magic Council and the Dark Council, causing the entire southern church to fall apart. .

Carty's concerns were also shared by most of the members of the College of Cardinals present, but before they could echo the persuasion, Pope Benedict IV waved his hand to stop everyone's actions and said solemnly.

"I am very confident, and I have to thank Ivan Vinson for his extraordinary contribution to the study of the observer effect."

"Let's get started. When I overcome the hidden dangers, I will be the strongest god under the Lord. With the help of the divine magic given to me by the Lord, the Magic Council, the Dark Council, the Northern Heretics and other forces will bow down and worship! The truth will last forever. , the holy light shines forever!”
