A line of words was being engraved crookedly on the table.
Harof took a quick glance and felt a chill running up from the soles of his feet to his heart, and he couldn't help but recite it aloud.
[One is ten thousand, ten thousand is one, I will merge with them all... It is everywhere, hehe, now I am everywhere too...]
Chapter 533: High-Dimensional Observer and Quantum Star God!
As Harov read out the words engraved on the table, everyone present felt their scalps tingling.
"It seems that Lord Artok has become crazier than before..." Ignar shuddered and muttered to himself.
Aurora and Harof also frowned, constantly pondering the meaning of these words.
The most important thing is, where did Artok go?
"Is there any secret room or basement in this laboratory?" Aurora looked at Ignar and asked solemnly.
Since Artok's territory is here, it means that the person must be nearby. He can't be hiding. Although the other party's mind is unpredictable after going crazy, it is indeed possible that he would do such an outrageous thing, but where can he hide in such a small place?
Ignar shook his head. He was very sure that there were absolutely no secret passages or secret rooms in this experiment, but he was not sure whether this crazy speaker had secretly dug out a secret room in the past half month.
Harof looked around, used perception magic to explore, and finally shook his head.
"Is there a possibility that this area is Altok?" Lynn suddenly said.
"What did you say?" Aurora looked stunned. "Altok is this area?"
Harof was also extremely confused, and for a moment he found it difficult to understand what Lin En wanted to express.
Lin En pointed to the words carved on the table. "Not in any place, yet everywhere. Don't you think this statement is familiar?"
"You mean...quantum probability cloud?" Harov suddenly reacted and exclaimed in horror.
After Lynn proposed this strange quantum theory, Haroff also devoted a lot of energy to the study of microscopic elements, especially the internal structure of atoms.
If not observed, the electrons inside the atom will exist simultaneously in every place in the probability cloud in an incomprehensible way, but once observed, they will instantly freeze in a certain position.
"That means Artok wasn't joking, and he has really turned into an elemental ghost now?" Aurora's face was full of disbelief.
"It's very likely..." Lin En nodded. "I guess the coverage of this probability cloud is the entire field! All the elements inside are part of Artok."
This means that one is everything and everything is one!
Lin En paused for a moment, then made another extremely terrifying guess. "Perhaps, we are now inside his body..."
Hearing this, Harov couldn't help but gasp. What on earth had Artok developed over the past few decades?
It took Aurora a while to accept that the field they were stepping into was the body of her colleague and friend. Ignar, who was standing beside her, was even more confused and had no idea what the speakers were talking about.
Chancellor Artok turned into an elemental ghost? Is this a joke?
"If this guess is true, then how is Artok now? Is he still alive?" Harov asked uncertainly.
"That depends on what your definition of being alive is. As for the more specific answer, I'm afraid it will require observation." Lin En answered after some hesitation.
He felt that the elemental master was most likely still alive, otherwise the domain would have collapsed long ago, but the situation should not be very good, otherwise he would not have ignored their actions of entering the domain and calling their names frequently, without any response at all.
Aurora nodded. Having watched the double-slit interference experiment before, she naturally understood the meaning of observation. It meant the collapse of the probability wave, and the transformation of the quantum from the strange form of wave-particle interweaving into a particle state that they could understand.
But the question is how to observe?
They were now inside Artok's body, watching each other at all times.
"Perhaps we can try to cover the entire area with magical perception..." Harof quickly gave a suggestion.
"It's worth a try. Let me do it!" Lin En nodded in agreement, asked Harof and the others to step back a little, and then closed his eyes and began to sense.
The magic power wrapped in the spirit spread in all directions, attaching to every element in the field like bubbles. This was not a hostile battle, so Lin En did not try to seize control of the magic field.
The whole process went very smoothly and there was no attack, which made Lin En feel a little relieved.
But when his perception covered the entire area, nothing happened.
"Still not working?" Aurora asked.
"No, let me try again!" Lin En said slowly in his heart. '071 Connect me to the magic network...'
Instantly, a huge amount of computing power quickly emerged in his mind, and his mental power rating jumped from seven to nine in just one second...
Harof and Aurora naturally also felt the strong sense of oppression erupting from Lin En's body. Their expressions changed slightly, but they soon returned to their composure.
They could naturally guess that this was the function of the magic network. Since this thing could provide computing power for great wizards such as Anthony, then Lin En, as the founder of the magic network, could naturally call on the computing power of others to bless himself.
Just as Lin En himself said, the magic network is a replica and improvement of the church's divine system. It is a more gentle version, but the power it exerts is equally powerful.
This powerful force also made Harof somewhat worried, because Lin En, who controlled the magic network, had already opened up a large gap in combat power with them, which was not conducive to the balance of voice among the major speakers.
However, their world is now facing threats from outside the domain, and every improvement in combat power is particularly important.
It is precisely based on this point that Lin En dared to show this ability in front of the two of them without any disguise. There will always be times in the future when he will need to use the magic net, so it would not be bad to take precautions now.
With the experience from last time, Lin En quickly mastered the explosive computing power. When he began to perceive again, everything in front of him had changed.
The elements that were constantly floating in the field came alive in his perception.
Lin En, who was observing the movements of each element at the same time, soon saw a vague figure, a person who was "spliced together".
It is like dividing a person into countless pieces and displaying them in front of him one by one. Then the brain, based on its impression of the concept of human beings, pieces them together to form an image of a person.
No, that's not quite right, because at a higher level they are indeed one.
A human body that was separated but gathered together made Lin En feel a little dizzy, but he still saw the appearance of this elemental controller clearly. He was about sixty years old, with a gaunt body, a rough face, and a look of madness all over his body.
"Altok!" Lynn tried to call out, and the latter immediately turned his gaze over.
The two of them stared at each other. Lin En concentrated and waited for a while, but the other party did not move at all. It seemed that he was in a daze, similar to an unconscious state...
"How is it? Did you see him?" Harrov heard Lin's cry and asked hurriedly.
"You can take a look for yourself!" Lynn nodded, then pulled Harof, Aurora and Ignar closer to the magic net and turned on the shared perception function.
The eyes of the people present suddenly widened, all of them were shocked by the bizarre scene before them—they saw a person separating and then coming together…
"What the hell has Artok turned into?" Aurora felt a chill down her spine.
Harov was also in great shock. After only watching for two or three seconds, he felt extremely dizzy.
Ignar let out a sharp roar like a madman. As a great wizard, he did not have enough computing power to perceive and construct a higher-dimensional picture, so the picture in front of him was extremely fragmented and chaotic, as if a stick was stirring madly in his brain...
Lin En frowned slightly, and hurriedly kicked Igna out of the magic network's perception sharing, but it was still too late. Igna actually fainted with his eyes rolled back.
But Linn, Harof and Aurora had no time to care about Igna at the moment, because in their sight, Artok actually moved.
"Is it because the number of observers has increased?" Lin En thought so, and his vigilance rose to the extreme, and he was ready to defend himself.
However, although the elements within the magic power were constantly surging, Artok still did not attack them. Instead, a low laugh was heard by everyone.
"Hehe, haha, now I am also an elemental ghost..."
Fuck... He is really crazy. Lin En rolled his eyes and then removed the computing power of the magic network. The whole world returned to normal again.
Harrov heaved a sigh of relief immediately. The dizziness in his brain was gradually easing. Even though he had only watched for less than half a minute, it was already a little too much to bear.
After Aurora adapted, she immediately leaned over to check on Igna's condition.
"How is Master Ignar?" Harov asked with a little concern, stroking his swollen brain.
"I'm afraid it's not very good. His spirit has been severely damaged." Aurora sighed.
"It was my negligence." Lin En shook his head. He did not expect that Ignar, a great five-ring wizard, would faint after just one look. Then he made a suggestion.
"I suggest that you delete his memory directly, otherwise there will be another crazy wizard."
Aurora hesitated for a moment, feeling that this was not quite appropriate, but it seemed that she could not find a better way now.
Lin En looked at the unfortunate wizard with pity, then looked at the formulas and abstract pictures written all over the four walls, and actually saw a strange beauty in them.
Only then did he truly realize that what were drawn on the wall were several hypercubes, but Artok did not have the ability to draw anything beyond two dimensions on a plane, and he wanted to do his best to draw everything he saw... so he could only break down each detail and draw them one by one.
Realizing this, Lin En couldn't help but sigh. The reason why this elemental controller suddenly went crazy was probably not just because he realized the weirdness and uncertainty of the microscopic world...
He has understood the difference between the domain and the divine realm, and finally realized what he is missing.
If one wants to truly transform a domain into a divine kingdom, it is not enough to have atomic-level control capabilities alone; one must delve into the quantum realm.
This is the secret of God's omnipresence and omniscience...
Because the entire divine realm is itself, or it can be called - Star God!
A higher-dimensional being that has complete control over a planet or a plane.
No wonder the black crow said that even if they tried every possible means, they could not pose a real threat to the Lord of the Dead. Only a god could defeat a god...
Lin En quickly expressed his thoughts. He was not very sure about these speculations, and only by brainstorming could he come up with a more comprehensive idea.
"So, this means that Artok has become a god now?" Harof said in disbelief.
"It's impossible to judge for now. We know too little about God." Lin En sighed.
The only thing that is certain is that Artok is no longer the same creature as them. He has become a high-dimensional being trapped in a laboratory, gone mad, and lacking self-awareness.
I just don't know how Artok transformed himself into a quantum state?
However, there were obviously some serious problems in this process. Lin En felt that it was probably because the other party lacked divinity and corresponding mental strength.
Just like those evil gods who were poisoned by faith and went mad, they forcibly elevated themselves to a level beyond their control.
The correct idea should be to become a nine-ring legendary wizard to condense the godhood, and then consider attracting believers and how to build the god's domain.
But we can't blame the wizards for clicking on magic trees randomly. After all, the promotion system was completely figured out by them step by step, relying only on the few words left in the ancient books of the Church of the Moon God and the wizards' wild imagination.
No one can guarantee that they are always on the right path.
Compared to Lynn and Harof who were discussing whether Artok had become a god, Aurora directly asked the most crucial question.
"What should we do now to make him return to normal? Continue to increase the number of observers?"
Since their observations could make the unconscious Artok react and even speak, does that mean that as long as there are enough people observing, he will be able to "wake up"?
"There are only five of us, including the three of us, Vittorio and Anthony who just got promoted. The number is probably far from enough." Lynn shook his head. Even a five-ring wizard like Ignar went crazy at first glance, which meant that only legends could bear the risk of being observers.
Having said that, Lynn suddenly pointed to the pictures and formulas on the wall and the notebooks and manuscripts on the table.
"I think we can start with his research... first figure out how Speaker Artok quantized himself."
