Dawn of the Grey Tower
Chapter 1621
In fact, the argument of elemental organisms is problematic. They are neither elements nor organisms. This involves very subtle concepts, such as the cognition of elements.
Many casters will simply regard elements as the basic components of the world. For example, water is an element, soil is an element, and fire and wind are also regarded as elements. Based on this imagination, they believe that elements are plastic. They will show different states under different conditions, such as water will become ice, clouds, iron and copper in the soil, There will be fragile gravel and extremely hard diamond.
Therefore, it is also possible to produce conscious individuals from elements.
But is that true? If the elements themselves are plastic, what are the differences between them? Does the difference between fire and water lie only in temperature, and the difference between water and soil lies only in fluidity?
Perhaps in a more subtle perspective, the elements are indistinguishable. That is the so-called atomic perspective, the smallest division of all things, and the conceptual absolute unit. It is these same atoms that form the elements and then the world through the combination of different structures.
Unfortunately, magicians do not believe in the existence of atoms, because that almost eliminates the mystery between things and turns them into the same, boring and lifeless things.
Of course, this is only the view of mages. From their perspective, the world is non atomic. Especially for mages of plastic energy school, there is no possibility to compare the elements. Juxtaposing some elements and unifying them is just a compromise based on human limited wisdom. In essence, they are irrelevant.
It is precisely because water and fire are irrelevant, and wind and soil have nothing to do with each other. They are precisely the purest elements and can be used as the cornerstone and raw materials for the construction of the whole world, rather than becoming the illusion and appearance under the atomic combination.
Are the mages wrong? Maybe. But who can say he is absolutely right?
In short, if you understand the world from the perspective of elements, you will find that in fact, elements do not have the ductility previously imagined, because variability means impure, and impure is the mixture of multiple elements.
Therefore, the so-called concept of elemental biology itself is contradictory. Pure elements cannot produce non elemental things, and the reason why organisms are creatures is based on their complex characteristics. So, like the roaring bronze bull in front of us, how should we call it?
"It''s a spirit, a bronze bull, ramda."
Fang Geng recognized what escaped from the damaged building at a glance, but ramda in his mouth was not a name. Cheese familiar with many languages knew that it was only the pronunciation of letters in the language, which was often used as a substitute for numbers when used alone.
In other words, the meaning of the mage should be that the bronze cow is the meaning of a certain spirit.
However, these are not important at the moment. The brass bull emitting terrible temperature rushed out of the former animal pen and came to the sun. Unlike evil things such as demons, the existence called material spirit has no fear of light at all.
It can walk under the sun, which can explain many problems. For example, you can''t expect to eliminate it from the world with a Dharma array to suppress demons or a simple demobilization spell.
"Although I''d like to ask you where you got this creature, it''s urgent to calm it down, right? In that case, please allow me and my companions to give a hand." Cheese, said Geng.
"Thank you very much. The whole school will remember your efforts. But please be careful. Ramda''s surface temperature is as high as molten brass. Its breathing can make the cloth curtain burn and contain toxins."
"It doesn''t sound too bad, maybe." Jian Qi passed by them and happened to hear the master''s advice and replied casually.
If it had been earlier, the sword seeker might have hesitated about such an unreasonable opponent. After all, even if the opponent is an elf or dwarf, it is still a body of flesh and blood, and there is no chance of winning.
But now, should he be used to it? He can''t understand why he can be so calm when charging. Obviously, the opponent in front can be recorded in the supernatural story, but he feels that the iron bar in his hand is enough to deal with it.
But Jian Qi didn''t really want to win a brass bull with a stick.
"Help! Help!"
The mages and apprentices who fled in front of the bull shouted, ran and pushed. Not everyone has the courage to face this monster, and that''s not reprehensible, because that''s normal.
Jian Qiyan looked at an apprentice who came face to face with him and tripped on a stone because he looked back at the bull. He immediately lowered his hand and dragged the other party''s chest without letting him fall.
"Don''t be flustered. Go. Someone will deal with it here." I don''t know if the apprentice understood Jian Qi, but fortunately the tone could still express the meaning. He nodded deeply and continued to run away.
In the current situation, it is not difficult to save a person. The difficulty is that the crowd is scattered and messy. Now the bull has not spread his hoof and run. Once the thing starts to move, there will be many deaths and injuries along the way.
Thinking of this, Jian Qi raised his eyes and saw that a half collapsed column was still three people high, so the sword seeker lifted his breath and jumped up the stone pillar in three or two steps, pressed the mechanism on the Qimen staff in his hand, and shook out an iron dart from the staff. Different from the iron dart used to shoot before, this concealed weapon is larger now, and there is a rope behind the dart.
The original intention of designing this mechanism is to imitate the rope dart, but now it''s not the time to use it like that.
"Up! Evil beast, look here!"
It''s not known whether Tongniu heard Jianqi''s drinking, but the sword seeker didn''t intend to attract each other with his voice. Jian Qi held the iron bar in both hands and shook the rope dart back and forth on his head. The iron dart made a sound like a cicada when hunting in the air.
This technique comes from the fisherman''s fishing. When the old man throws the rod, he never depends on the elasticity of the rod itself or the weight of the bait. In that way, falling into the water will scare away the small fish nearby. Therefore, the fisherman uses very light and few bait. When he comes out of the rod, he will swing the hook in this way every time and make it fly away with the help of inertia. The most divine thing is to grasp the strength, The hook was almost invisible when it entered the water.
Jian Qi doesn''t need to lift heavy weights like a fisherman now. Although his swing borrowed that technique, the purpose is just the opposite. One is not to disturb the fish, and the other is eager to attract the attention of the bull.
Therefore, the sword seeker''s swing and strength are much stronger, and the iron dart is many times heavier than the fishhook. After three breaths, Jianqi realized that he was strong enough. With the swing of the iron bar, he buckled the mechanism again and cut off the rope connected to the iron dart!
"Whoosh!"
The sound of breaking through the air is no less than the heavy arrow shot by the big bow. It breaks through the air like a tiger roaring and a dragon singing, and goes straight between the horns of a brass bull!
"Ding!"
The sound of gold and iron roared suddenly. After hitting the target, the iron dart flew into the air and turned several times before falling to the ground. Looking at the gap between the two horns of the bull, there was a notch, but the notch was filled with flowing brass and was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Moo!"
The roar of anger was followed by the sound of cattle hoofs planing on the ground. No matter how effective the iron dart is, the purpose of Jianqi to attract attention has indeed been achieved.
"That''s right. Come on."
