"The Dharma contains the path to eternal life, and Zheng is the immortal protector of the Way."
Duke Milton did not want to have a dispute with the witch on any topic, so he used an ancient verse and quickly skipped over Su Shijun's pride and returned to the topic he was talking about:
"My father once said to me, 'If you want to walk steadily on the road of truth, you must understand the true meaning of 'struggle'," and war is the most intense of all "struggles," and it is also the most clearly understood.
part."
Because the words Milton quoted involved the legendary patriarch of the Cullen family, Su Shijun and William Talbot had to show enough respect and listen to the words quietly.
Then Milton asked Su Shijun: "Since war is so important...how do you think the war between wizards should be conducted?"
Su Shijun hasn't spoken yet.
Mr. Werewolf, who had been listening for a long time, couldn't help but sneer: "Magic, blood and claws, this is the answer that all newborn wolf cubs know."
"That's why you are called barbarians among wizards." Milton did not hide the contempt in his eyes.
William let out a deep roar in his throat, and there was a trace of blood in his eyes.
Su Shijun didn't want the Moonlight Council to be embarrassed in front of the many great wizards in the Black Hell Castle, so he quickly turned around and smoothed things over: "Wizard war? It should be that the two sides lined up their troops, then shouted and started throwing fireballs at each other?"
At the end, she couldn't help but laugh.
As the saying goes, ‘Looking back and smiling brings beauty’, the witch’s smile made the entire lounge seem to lose its color, and even the dark world outside the window became much brighter.
Under this smile, the werewolf and the vampire forgot about their mutual hatred and confrontation.
Milton was stunned for a few seconds before coming back to his senses.
"Of course not," he said hoarsely, eager to explain: "Small-scale, low-intensity conflicts - such as a duel between three or five low-level wizards - can be like what you said, throwing fireballs at each other and setting up magic traps.
Prepare formations in advance. Due to capacity constraints, this kind of conflict will blow up a few mountains and overturn one or two rivers at best."
"But large-scale, high-intensity wars are different."
"Because large-scale wars will involve high-level wizards. And a battle between two high-level wizards requires preparation from a higher dimension beyond reality."
"For example, you need to consider whether the opponent will use divination magic, and calculate your preparations in advance to make targeted arrangements; another example is, whether the opponent may have a dirty trick, go back along the timeline, and eliminate the battle before it happens.
; For another example, the opponent has prepared six or seven soul weapons or phylacteries, so even if you defeat your opponent in a duel and kill him, you still cannot completely eradicate it... Then a short conflict turns into a long conflict.
Torture.”
"The battle between two high-level wizards is already so complicated, so the complexity of a large-scale war involving dozens or even hundreds of high-level wizards will increase exponentially... This complexity is enough
It makes the most powerful diviner's brain boil instantly and plunges the highest level fortune-telling formation into a state of chaos."
"It's really scary." Su Shijun almost immediately deduced the terrifying scene and shook his head repeatedly. Even the foxtails behind him became more at ease and temporarily gave up the plan of teaching the vampire a lesson.
"Without a doubt." The Vampire Duke nodded with concern, took a sip of red wine, and exposed his beautiful little fangs at the corners of his mouth. He calmed down before continuing: "...So, in order to avoid this kind of
"To use the words of old-school wizards, prepare 'nails, pliers and locks.'" Duke Milton said something incomprehensible again.
"Speak humanly." the witch urged, slightly unhappy.
Duke Milton really wanted to say that he was a vampire, not a human being, so naturally he couldn't speak human language.
But looking at the witch's face, Mr. Duke finally did not dare to continue talking. Instead, he immediately briefly described the three concepts just mentioned: "This sentence means, 'Use nails to nail the nodes of fate, and use a pincer-like offensive.
Confirm the only possibility, and then lock the battlefield with eight golden locks'."
As he spoke, the vampire raised his hand, and a thin red rope mist covered the tall floor-to-ceiling windows.
Through the fog, you can vaguely see many slender golden threads traveling through it, intertwining a fine network, constructing a classic 'Klein model' - this is a simple representation of high-dimensional concepts in a low-dimensional world.
image.
"It's very interesting." The witch folded her arms and looked at the model in the red mist, her face showing a serious look of contemplation.
"If the world in the vision of a high-level wizard is simplified into this model," Duke Milton raised his hand and poked at the nodes where the golden thin lines intertwined on Klein's model: "The nails must be hammered into these nodes.
Up... This is the node of destiny in the long river of time and space."
"Destiny is sensitive and suspicious. It is like a rabbit covered with long and slender velvet. Any slightest movement or contact with a piece of velvet on its body will cause the rabbit to jump around in shock."
"The most common saying among diviners is, 'Fate is risky, so divination requires caution.' Wizards who are proficient in divination sometimes only need to throw a pebble into the river to completely change the lives of some opponents.
Change. When the fortune teller throws enough stones and is big enough, it can even block the river of destiny and collapse the entire world."
"How to find destiny nodes has become the most studied topic among fortune-tellers."
"Human life is like a lamp, which when gathered together becomes a river, it is the river of destiny."
"In this world, every ten seconds, forty-one lamps of life light up for the lives that fall into this river; every ten seconds, another eighteen lamps of life leave this river.
The big river floats into Guixu and slowly extinguishes."
"The lighting up and extinguishing of most of the lamps of destiny will not have any impact on the world, because they are so small that few people know about them from birth to death...but there are always some destiny lamps.
Lamps, because they exist in such a special location, their lighting and extinguishing affect thousands of other life lamps, and even leave a deep imprint in the long river of time and space."
As he spoke, Duke Milton grabbed the node he just poked.
Pulled it up slowly.
It was as if a dim little lamp had been lifted up. But behind the lamp, a large golden net was dragged up, and the net was covered with countless bright life lamps:
"Many wizards have discussed the same question. What would the world have been like if Mr. Qiu Chuji had not passed by Niujia Village?"
