Chapter 503: In the Name of Science

Artemis suggested, "It also gives us a preliminary understanding of this place."

"Okay." Li Yang nodded and then pondered for a moment.

Then he opened his mouth and slowly explained:

"When I first entered this universe, I already started trying to find the existence of creation authority."

"But the problem is that after my search, I didn't find anything familiar like authority."

"So, I founded Tongxuan on Earth, intending to conduct some... localized research."

"Then I discovered that this world, on the surface, looks similar to many of the planes you have seen. It is a grand material world."

"But in fact, its operating principle and origin are completely different from the Blue Star plane you know."

"On the contrary, it is very similar to the [Ark] plane where Theresa is."

Having said this, Li Yang paused for a moment. Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, he slowly continued:

"Here, the origin of everything is dominated by something called 'science'."

"In modern terms, the world is a huge simulation environment composed of a set of complex and precise mathematical equations."

"All matter, energy, space-time, and even the basic laws that drive the operation of the universe are determined by the mathematical rules in this model."

"In other words, the plane where the earth is now is essentially a huge virtual sandbox!"

Li Yang's explanation surprised all the goddesses.

Elise opened her eyes wide and repeated in disbelief: "Virtual...sandbox?"

Demeter thought thoughtfully: "This... seems to be the same thing as the Blue Star Plane Theresa originally mentioned."

"The plane relies on a certain principle to operate stably, and relies on limited resources to carry out controllable civilization changes."

"As for the 'science' you mentioned, it seems more complicated than the Blue Star plane."

Artemis also thought for a moment and asked Li Yang:

"So, what exactly is the 'science' you are talking about?"

"How is it different from authority, and how does it serve as a rule to guide the stable operation of the universe?"

"Well..." Li Yang smiled and looked at the street scene in the distance,

"Although it is called science, its essence is no different from the gods we understand."

"It is the supreme creator of this plane and the source of all things."

"How it all works...it's a long story."

"To describe it in popular language, science is an extremely sophisticated and complete system of rules."

"This rule system consists of countless complex mathematical equations, covering operating mechanisms at all levels from micro to macro."

"In fact, all phenomena in this world can be summarized as one or several mathematical laws, and they can be accurately described, calculated and predicted with the help of these known laws."

"For example, the motion of planets in our starry sky completely follows Kepler's laws; kinetic energy and energy in the physical world also obey basic principles such as conservation of mass and energy."

"In short, this world can be regarded as a giant simulator created by mathematics. The entire universe, as well as all matter, energy, laws and phenomena in the universe, are constructed from this mathematical model."

"Science is the sum of these all-encompassing numerical laws, and it is the 'God' that controls the world. As long as you master these laws, you have control over everything."

This explanation undoubtedly lifted the spirits of all the goddesses.

"Concrete abstract concepts into gods? This seems to be somewhat similar to the realm of gods."

Elise blinked her big eyes and thought carefully:

"I see. If you put it this way, we can still find specific enemies. The gods that exist in this world are actually science, right?"

"That's right." Li Yang nodded in approval, "Science is the god of this plane."

"In other words, it is both the rule of creation and the source of it all. You can understand that everything in this world is constructed from an extremely precise generation program, and science is the one who wrote this program 'Creator'.

"The one who controls this program and the entire world is the god-like existence in this world."

Artemis thought thoughtfully: "The God of Science..."

"I always feel that this title seems a bit familiar."

Everyone looked at each other, and all thought of Teresa, who claimed to be the "God of Technology."

The foundation of the Blue Star plane is [Authority], and the foundation of the Ark plane is [Infinite].

And Li Yang’s hometown takes [Science] as the foundation of everything...

Oniliyi leaned on the railing of the stone bridge and asked: "Doesn't that mean that once you master science and crack the operating mechanism of this world, you can gain the authority to create the world?"

"That's right." Li Yang nodded slowly, "Once you understand all the rules, you will have supreme power, even if you create a new virtual universe, it should be no problem."

"But even so, our understanding of science is actually still at a very early stage."

"We are only slowly exploring the appearance of scientific laws to understand the essence of how things work."

"As for completely mastering this super program and making humans truly the masters of this world, I'm afraid we'll have to embark on a journey of exploration for tens of thousands of years."

Li Yang shook his head and said this earnestly.

Demeter nodded, apparently also somewhat inspired.

"The evolution of the planes is different, but fundamentally, all planes are born from one origin and follow certain basic laws."

"By controlling these laws, you can naturally control the entire plane."

"Your plane uses mathematics as its origin, which is quite unique and interesting."

Iris asked with great interest: "Father, what are your specific plans? Do you want to use your own abilities to rule this plane?"

"Rule is secondary." Li Yang explained, "I just plan to limit the scientific development here and prevent humans from exploring the root laws of this world too quickly."

"Today's Earth civilization is on the right path, advancing unimpeded, and will inevitably gain the power to create the world."

"But in the vast universe, there must be more than just the Earth that has this information."

"There will always be some existences that have been inspired first and have begun to move towards controlling everything."

"Therefore, I plan to find the power of creation of this plane and limit that power within a reasonable range to maintain the stability of this world."
