Chapter 2836 The Principle of Stars and Edges
In this world, the greatest danger is always the danger that cannot be seen.
The black gem cat covered her head and listened to Kolma's last words with tears in her eyes. She was not in awe of the concept that had existed since the primitive times. She only felt that the three words "invisible" were the key to her words. The true meaning of.
Like just now.
It didn't see the witch's knuckles that suddenly hit its forehead.
"——A real great wizard needs to start from a bone, an eyeball, or even a drop of blood, and slowly polish his true body, while those who are qualified to control the experimental body only need to pass a simple resonance test——Don't you think Isn’t this unfair?”
"Fairness is the principle of Jiuyou Academy." The black gem cat whispered.
Snap.
A thin light bug fell from the insect cluster under the ceiling, and happened to land between the black gem cat and the owner of the tavern, instantly attracting their attention. It rolled around, kicking its short furry legs in fear and clumsiness, vibrating its wrinkled wings, trying to stay away from this lonely world.
But it's too weak.
He was so weak that he flapped his wings frantically for a long time. At most, he was only less than an inch away from the table, and then he fell down again.
Colma tilted the cup slightly and sprinkled a drop of amber light in front of the light bug. Then, one person and one cat watched the bug carefully test, watched it greedily suck the drop of wine, and watched its shriveled body. The belly slowly swelled, blooming with faint rays of light, and all of them were lost in thought.
for a long time.
The Black Jewel Cat's slightly emotional voice sounded again.
"It almost died."
It squatted next to the light bug that was gradually coming to life, raised its paws, and gestured a small distance, implying: "The distance between life and death is just a little bit... and what is the price of its survival?" ?”
It raised its head, glanced at the ceiling, and added: "——It was just a fall."
Korma glanced at the black gem cat.
"Because death is a false concept. There are many costs in this world that are more terrible than death."
At this point, she paused for a moment. In the end, she did not say what the more terrifying costs were. Instead, she changed the topic slightly and explained the previous sentence: "——From a magical point of view, there is no real price in this world. Death is eternal for each of us."
"uh-huh?"
The black gem cat snorted very loudly and looked at the witch with suspicious eyes, feeling that she was going crazy. You know, even in the magical world, the most vague dream that most wizards can imagine is just immortality.
The great wizard of the North District didn't pay attention to the slightly offended look from the kitten.
Instead, he raised his hand and lightly touched the top of his head.
The ceiling instantly becomes transparent.
The bright sunshine at noon penetrated the ceiling and fell into the tavern, illuminating the slightly dim world. But the next second, like iron filings attracted by a magnet, all the sunlight fell into the wine in the witch's hand. in a bottle.
The golden amber light in the bottle seemed to be boiled, bubbling and bubbling, but not a trace of alcohol escaped. Instead, it made its color more vivid.
Of course, that's not the point. The key point is that after the sunlight above the head disappears, the day instantly turns into night, and the sky is filled with stars, shining with charming colors.
The black gem cat quickly turned to look out the window.
Thank God.
The world outside is still daytime, and it has not really turned into night. If Kolma really has the ability to change the day, the black gem cat will kneel down obediently right now, rub her fingers, and ask worriedly Didn't her finger hurt when she knocked the stone?
Not bad, not bad, just a small patch of sky showing the colors of the night.
Still within its scope of understanding.
The owner of the tavern was not aware of the black gem cat's sudden mood swings.
"When you raise your head, what can you see?" She looked up at the starry sky with the black cat, her tone indifferent.
The black gem cat twitched its ears and hesitated for a few seconds: "——Star?"
"That's right, stars." The Great Sage of the North District breathed a sigh of relief, and his voice seemed to be lighter: "You know how far away those stars are from us, right?"
Black Cat nodded.
"I remember that you took Magical Cosmology as an elective this semester... Then you should also know that the starlight you see now is the light emitted by stars billions of years ago, or even tens of billions of years ago, right?"
Black Cat nodded again.
This bit of common sense didn't require him to take an elective course in magical cosmology to know about it. He had already understood the common sense about light years and the universe during his first eighteen years of study as an ordinary person.
"——Then, think about it from another angle. We can now see the stars ten billion years ago, and the stars ten billion years from now are also looking at us. No matter how weak our light is, it still exists after all. Time It lengthens the distance between us and the stars, and also lengthens the lives of each of us. In the distant future, the light of the earth will reach every corner of the star sea, and each of us will be young again...at every distance. Being born and growing again in different galaxies is a kind of eternity.”
The black gem cat’s little mouth opened slightly.
It's quite a jaw-dropping feeling.
It seems to make sense, but this logic... why does it feel weird? Is it because magic can be illogical, so wizards’ wild ideas don’t need logical support?
Kolma didn't pay attention to the strange appearance of the kitten, and just stared at the dark night above her head.
"So," the Black Gem Cat finally remembered its original purpose and smacked its lips: "--What do you mean by death and life? What does it have to do with the Giant God Soldier Project?"
The witch lowered her eyelids: "The Giant God Soldier is the Giant God Soldier of the Edge Academy, so it must comply with the principles of the Edge Academy."
"The principles of the Edge Academy..." The Black Gem Cat tilted her head: "Like Alpha's freedom and justice, Nine's justice and equality?"
"Yes."
"Then what are the principles of the Edge Academy?"
"Sacrifice." The witch first uttered the first word, paused, and then added: "Maybe it also includes pioneering."
The Black Gem Cat's eyes immediately fell on her silver hair.
Yes.
Sacrifice.
The magic mastered by the wizards in the North District is sacrifice, the sacrifice of the elves, the sacrifice of the gypsy witches, the ratmen, and even the fishmen, all these marginal groups have faced sacrifices-on the contrary, those guys in the alliance who covet the Edge Academy are afraid of sacrifice, but like others to sacrifice.
This is really a very sophisticated and powerful principle.
"——The foundation of the Edge Academy must be in the hands of wizards with a spirit of sacrifice."
Korma held the bottle of wine, his tone gentle but firm: "So, when I heard the bad news, I was particularly calm... or relieved... This is the arrangement of fate."
