Chapter 124 I guessed, I saw, I calculated (14)

Maple Leaf Tea Party.

Rosen sat in the corner, holding a cup of milk tea in both hands and watching a few young people 'whimsical'

After Haven finished expressing his views, the third young mage expressed his thoughts.

"I completely agree with Master Haven's ideas."

"In fact, I also think that the attraction between two moving stars is likely to be inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them."

The mage who said this is called Lydia, a 25-year-old female mage. Her father is Sir Grubby, the Minister of Finance and Taxation of Silver Moon Castle.

The title of knight is not high, but the minister of finance and taxation is a good job. There is no burden to train a mage.

Of course, not all female mages are beautiful. Lydia's appearance and figure are very ordinary, and the only thing that stands out on her face is a pair of deep black eyes.

In addition, no one can deny her magical achievements.

At only twenty-five years old, he is already an intermediate mage and has created three original logic spells, two of which are low-level and one is mid-level.

And what she said immediately attracted the attention of the young people at the table, including Rosen.

Rosen glanced at her and felt that this girl had a really good mind.

Harvin, the son of the Baron of Hearth Town, immediately asked.

"Why is it inverse square, not inverse cube? In addition to distance, is it related to other things?"

Lydia spread her hands: "Haven, if I know the answers to these questions, then I will definitely attract a lot of attention at the Flower Society."

The implication was that she didn't know.

At this time, Ailan said: "Lediya must be right, because my uncle also guessed the same."

Lydia suddenly laughed: "It really makes me feel extremely honored to be able to think of Master Bilugu together."

After saying that, she sighed deeply.

"The mysteries of the stars are so profound and unfathomable. They have always been there. We mortals can observe them, but we cannot see through them, let alone touch them."

After speaking, she took a sip of moon wine and turned to look at Rosen.

"Master Rosen, why don't you express your opinion on the stars today?"

When she asked, Alan and Haven both turned to look at Rosen, waiting for his answer.

Past experience told them that this young mage was very cautious when speaking, but whenever he spoke, it would be true knowledge and insight.

Rosen took a sip of warm milk tea and smiled calmly.

"I completely agree with Lydia's statement, and it is also an obvious fact that the gravitational force between stars is proportional to the product of their masses."

Lydia raised her brows: "Oh~ Master Rosen always speaks amazingly. Is the mass you are talking about the concept proposed in your gravity paper?"

"That's right."

At this point in the discussion, Master Hawen made a concluding question.

He said: "Then if there really is such a force, which is proportional to the product of mass and inversely proportional to the square of the mutual distance, what shape should the trajectory of moving stars around the sun be?"

After speaking, he spread his hands and expressed his thoughts matter-of-factly.

"My personal guess is that it is a circle, because only a perfect circle can match the status of a star."

Lydia immediately shook her head: "No, no, nature is always imperfect and cannot be round."

Haven immediately argued: "Nature is indeed imperfect, but what we are talking about is not nature, but the stars in the sky, which are the realm of the gods."

Ailan laughed and said: "There are no gods in the starry sky, at least my uncle didn't see them."

Haven said: "Okay, Ladiya, what is your statement?"

"I guess it's an ellipse. Of course, that's just my guess. I don't know why. Alan, what did your uncle say?"

Alan chuckled: "Lediya is right. My uncle and I made calculations based on the observation results, and finally found that it is an ellipse."

"Another interesting fact is that the position of the sun coincides with a certain focus of the elliptical trajectory."

Rosen's heart moved slightly when he heard this: 'Good guys, these uncles and nephews have both figured out Kepler's laws of planets.'

The discussion just now shows that we are only one step away from the final law of universal gravitation.

Of course, on Earth, this so-called "one step away" is equivalent to about half a century.

Then, Lydia asked the final question.

"Then why is it an ellipse?"

Alan shrugged: "This is God's mystery. If we mortals want to know the answer, we have to pray for God's generosity."

Haven grinned: "Didn't you just say you didn't see the gods in the starry sky? Why did you come back again?"

"After all, it may be that God has blocked my uncle's sight."

Lydia turned to look at Rosen again: "Hey, what did you say?"

So, the other two young men also looked at Rosen, waiting for his opinion.

Rosen smiled slightly: "Master Bilugu's observation results are very accurate. The records show that the trajectories of the six moving stars are indeed ellipses with different eccentricities."

After a pause, he added emphatically: "And it must be an ellipse!"

Ha Wen was startled: "Must? Why do you say that?"

Laidiya immediately asked: "Yes, why do you say that?"

Ailan was even more anxious, but he tried to calm himself down.

"Reason, Master Rosen, you need a reason to convince others."

Rosen shook the cup of milk tea: "Because... I calculated it using mathematics."

As soon as these words came out, the air around the small table suddenly solidified.

"."

Ailan was about to drink, but his lips touched the wine and he refused to drink it.

"."

Lydia stared at Rosen without blinking for at least half a minute.

"."

Ha Wen held a sip of wine in his mouth and couldn't swallow it for a long time.

Time froze for half a minute before it resumed flowing.

"Haha~"

Ailan laughed dryly, put the wine glass to his mouth back on the table without taking a sip.

"Rosen, this joke can't be made casually."

Lydia rubbed her interfering eyes: "Yes, you'd better know what you were talking about just now."

Ha Wen finally swallowed the wine in his mouth, but choked.

My face was red from coughing, and after finally returning to normal, I didn't even have time to catch my breath, so I started yelling regardless of etiquette.

"I don't believe it. How can mortal mathematics calculate the laws of the stars? Unless you tell me how!"

Ladia's black eyes were shining, with a look of urgency on her face.

"Yes, yes, Master Rosen, please tell me how you calculated it?! I have been using geometric methods for more than half a year, and I still have no clue."

Ailan urged in a hurry: "Quick, quick, stop hiding it, let us all open our eyes together!"

Perhaps because of his excitement, he said these words so loudly that the mages at the surrounding tea tables also heard them.

Many people gathered around to inquire about the situation.

Lydia was very eloquent and could briefly explain the situation in just a few words.

As a result, all the mages also became very interested and urged Rosen to give the answer quickly.

Rosen still smiled and shook his head: "Not now, because I plan to publish it at the Flower Society."

He dares to say this result, firstly because he is also a noble now, and with the temple standing behind him and the big bosses of the temple guarding him, he is not afraid of others thinking about him.

The second reason is because the topic they are discussing has nothing to do with magic, it is the stars in the sky.

The topic of stars is very high-level and naturally attracts attention, but in fact it has little to do with actual life.

This is a metaphysical topic that satisfies pure curiosity, and has minimal utilitarianism.

Thirdly, because the name is justifiable.

Because Bilgu gave him stargazing records some time ago, he studied them for several months, and now he is considered an expert.

And as soon as he said he wanted to publish it at the Flower Society, the friends at the tea party stopped talking, because it meant that Rosen was serious about it, otherwise he would not dare to say it.

Master Ailan smacked his lips and asked in a consultative tone.
