Summer is coming to an end.

The sign of Mars at night begins to shift towards the west sky, the heat of summer begins to retreat from the entire kingdom, and the winds in the morning and evening become cool and pleasant every day. After a few abundant rains, the breath of autumn is getting closer and closer.

The mysterious and complex magic runes floated in the air like stars. The crystal device used to display the rune structure was fixed on the base made of alloy. The surface was flashing with magic glow, and a low buzzing sound echoed in the laboratory. Carmire floated quietly between the illusory magic runes, and the arcane brilliance at the position of both eyes was as bright as ever.

This is the largest analysis room of Rune Research Institute. Today's work task is to analyze the technical information brought by the elves.

Several senior rune masters from the Rune Research Institute copied the rune structures at several key nodes, while a tall, thin, brilliant blonde male elf stood beside Kamair. The elf's eyes occasionally fell on Kamair. Obviously, a powerful arcane creature made the elf magician particularly concerned.

But Carmier didn't care about the elves' gaze. He focused almost all his energy on the runes that had just been translated and parsed. After carefully observing its core structure, he couldn't help but say: "The core mechanism of Master Banner's purification array is some kind of... regulation and resonance?"

"You're right, Master Carmier," the elf magician called Banner nodded. "Through a long study of the chaotic magic power, we found that it is still a magic power in essence, rather than the 'polluting waste energy' I thought before. Since it is magic, it is possible to order it by re-regulating the rate and resonance. This is the idea of ​​'purification'."

Carmire's eyes fell between the rune phantoms, and his tone gradually became a little excited: "In other words, you treated magic as a kind of 'wave' and succeeded?!"

"'Wave'..." The elf magician was stunned for a moment and looked at Carmier unexpectedly, "You have introduced this concept too?!"

"...We introduced this concept not long ago, and it is still impossible to prove it, only as a conjecture," Kamier said buzzingly. "We applied the fluctuation characteristics of magic in the process of reconstructing the messaging spell. Its fluctuation has been proven mathematically and examplely, but we still lack critical evidence to observe."

"We introduced this concept forty years ago. The great astrology wise man Vilania proposed the assumption that magic is a fluctuating, and derived the theoretical wavelength range of pure arcane magic through spell models of several arcane magic. Her theory is the basis for purifying arrays. But unfortunately, we also failed to obtain observable evidence..."

Carmire suddenly turned around and looked at the elf magician in front of him with a burning look: "What you encounter is also interference?"

"You have met too?!" The tone of the elf magician named Banner was surprised. At this moment, his attention was no longer on Carmire's arcane body. The elves from the Silver Empire had never thought that on the far side of the continent, in the country of aliens, in the decline of human society, human magicians were actually studying the essential problems of magic. They did not expect that human research was so in-depth, and even encountered the bottlenecks encountered by the elves!

"Disturbation is everywhere, and the whole world is shrouded in a powerful magical environment, so it is impossible to observe at all," Carmier was also surprised that the elves were actually conducting research like humans. It was as if a traveler who was alone in the desert suddenly encountered a travel companion with the same target. His "heart" that had stopped beating or even no longer existed seemed to be throbbing again. "What kind of experiment have you designed?"

After a brief shock, the elf magician quickly calmed down. He did not hide this problem: "Master Vilania designed an interference experiment. We prepared a pure arcane energy source to ensure that it had only a small amount of 'impermeal'. Then the arcane energy was concentrated into a bundle and hit a lattice. The lattice was made of a magic-suppressing crystal sheet, with two narrow slits that were very close to each other. Theoretically, pure arcane energy would show volatility after passing through the magic-suppressing crystal sheet: the magic waves passing through the two narrow slits should interfere with each other, and form interference fringes on the projection plate coated with developing dust..."

"But there is only a piece of white noise, right?" Carmier said immediately, "Any pattern projected on the observation interface is covered by a stronger natural magic field, just like observing a weak light under strong light. In fact, the faint pure arcane energy may not even have time to reach the projector, and was neutralized by the magic field in the environment in the middle..."

Banner sighed regretfully: "As you said, the experiment failed. It seems that you are also..."

"We designed similar experiments, and the experimental ideas were proposed by Duke Cecil," Carmier said in a low voice. "We also failed to observe interference fringes, but mathematics told me that it should have existed."

The Elf Magister was a little surprised: "Duke Gowenceil also has such achievements in the realm of magic?"

"The Duke is knowledgeable and has been exposed to extraordinary knowledge and wisdom in his seven hundred years of soul leaving the body," Carmier said convincedly, "but... he cannot solve the problem of magic interference in the natural environment. Speaking of which, have you tried the forbidden magic field?"

"The highest level of magic ban field only suppresses magic reactions to a certain extent, and at the same time interferes with the caster's mental power to block the casting process. The magic itself cannot be banned," the elf magician shook his head with a wry smile. "We have also tried to use expensive magic suppression crystals to create a 'dark room' to block the magic in nature. However, due to the limitation of technology, we cannot guarantee the complete isolation of the entire dark room. As long as there is a little leakage... the interference will appear like a devil."

Carmire could imagine how much effort the elves put in to create such a "darkroom".

Due to the pervasiveness of natural magic, magic interference observation experiments must ensure that the observer itself is in a dark room environment. A dark room that can accommodate the observer, even if the space is cramped, is still a huge "box". The expensiveness of the magic-suppressing crystal is secondary. It is necessary to process such a huge crystal and ensure that it has no "leakage points"... obviously exceeds the elves' craftsmanship technology.

Even elves cannot do it, and humans may not do it.

"Our next goal is to turn to the goblin tribe of the Agure Tribe. The goblins are small in size and can enter very small dark rooms. Smaller dark rooms are possible," Banner sighed, "but it's hard to say whether we can find goblins who are willing to help, after all... they really don't like being locked up."

...

Gao Wen sat behind the desk and quietly listened to Carmier's report.

"...Lord, to sum up, the elves encountered the same problems as ours in the natural environment."

"What a devilish interference..."

Gao Wen sighed softly, his thoughts fluctuating.

What is the essence of magic?

This question began to haunt him shortly after he uncovered the coffin. The ubiquitous power of nature and the seemingly endless huge energy have also made Gao Wen deeply doubted while bringing convenience. He has always wanted to understand the essence and source of magic, but until now, the achievements he and his scientific research team have achieved are still very few.

They can only be sure now that the source of magic is inseparable from the "sun" in the sky, and its essence... "maybe" is some kind of wave.

Yes, although there have been some application examples, such as Magic Network Communication Technology, and some calculation conclusions, for this kind of "thing" that cannot be found in one day, it will not be completely determined in one day its definition. At this stage, Gao Wen and Kamier can only say that magic is "perhaps" is some kind of wave.

This is a regrettable situation.

It is there, its nature, its possible nature, is about to emerge, but the most critical observation has become the biggest obstacle to the researchers. The magic power of nature is everywhere, which has brought about the rapid development of magic technology and great difficulties in some research projects.

What Gao Wen could think of is the classic experiment used to verify volatility is the double-slit interference experiment. He knows how the double-slit interference on the earth is achieved, but in this world, this classic experiment is difficult to verify because the magic in the natural environment covers all observation phenomena.

The strength of magic in nature is far stronger than the two arcane streams that passed through the slits during the experiment. It formed a white noise on the reflector plate. The pure one-way arcane stream that should have interference was completely erased. For the same reason, the experiment of observing the magic version of "Poisson Bright Spot" was also unsuccessful.

The elves' ideas may be the best solution to build a dark room and find ways to block the magical interference of nature.

However, this is not easy.

On the earth, if you want to avoid the influence of the strong light in nature to observe interference fringes, you only need to use light-blocking materials to block them. However, in this world, natural matter that can block magic power is extremely rare and difficult to process. The expensive magic-suppressing crystal is the most suitable material that can be found. It can effectively block magic power. The baffle in the double-slit interference experiment is made of it, but the magic-suppressing crystal needs to be processed into a dark room...even in the Gondor era, it is difficult to easily do it.

"Actually, I have another solution," said Carmier. "Using a more powerful arcane source, the energy passing through the double slit exceeds the base of magic power in nature, so that interference fringes may be observed outside the dark room or even if they are not observed, two burning marks can be observed. At least we can verify whether the magic is a wave. According to my calculations, the existing rainbow cannons fully meet this condition."

"I have thought of this plan, but the premise of this plan is that we need to find more stable and stronger materials than the Demon Suppression Crystal," Gao Wen frowned. "Although the Demon Suppression Crystal can block magic, it has its limit in the end. Things like the Rainbow Cannon... will burn any baffle."

Carmire fell silent.

After a brief thought, Gao Wen asked, "Is the elf astrologist who proposed the concept of magic fluctuations called Vilania?"

"Yes."

"As an elf, she should still be working for the Elf King's Court today."

"Yes, according to Banner Baiyu, astrologist Vilanya is still working for the Elf Royal Court and is continuing to study the Magic Wave Theory. She is also one of the R&D personnel of the 'purification array'."

"The elves are ahead of us...if they can reach a deeper cooperation with them," Gao Wen sighed softly, "Carmayer, do you think... using the magical connections remaining in the Magnificent Wall, coupled with our Magic Network communication terminal and a set of translation devices, can we establish remote communication with the Silver Empire?"

“It’s a very challenging idea, but I can give it a try.”
