339: Chapter 332: Runes and Programs 339: Chapter 332: Runes and Programs “It’s the coordinates, the coordinates!” Tangmo said excitedly, afraid that Luo’er wouldn’t understand.
“Slow down, you’re bleeding from the corner of your mouth again.” Luo’er pushed her away and held her arm, saying with concern.
“My calculations are correct.
Magic, magic will flow according to the pattern, then convert into corresponding effects, just like a program.
The runes are like code…” Tangmo continued excitedly.
“Speak slowly, make it clearer!” Luo’er comforted her patiently.
Tangmo’s actions caught the attention of Shariya and Feliz who ca over to watch.
Sensing that everyone was gathering around, Tangmo grabbed the information she had calculated and announced loudly, “My calculation is correct.
It’s exactly as I presud.
The aning of the rune coordinates of the Otherworld Gate in Yazhi City is that, through the flow of magic, a gate at a specified place is replicated and connected to the original gate, achieving leap-style transmission!”
“Uh…” Not only Shariya and Feliz did not understand Tangmo’s words, but even Luo’er, a person from Earth, did not understand her.
She spoke in terms of Earth’s technological jargon mixed with terms from magic, which confused people from both worlds.
Seeing that no one understood, Tangmo beca anxious.
She tried to swallow to soothe her sore throat, but her dry throat made her cough violently.
Seeing this, Luo’er quickly handed her his water bottle.
After gulping down several mouthfuls of water, Tangmo finally recovered, panting heavily.
“Slow down, take your ti!” Luo’er advised, looking worried.
Tangmo nodded, wiped her mouth, grabbed the blueprint, and continued explaining, “Here, here, and here, I’ve calculated three tis, and the results are consistent.
I’m sure there’s no mistake.”
“Uh, what do you an?” Luo’er looked at the dense numbers on her paper and felt a tingling scalp, unable to wrap his head around it.
“Let put it in simpler terms,” Tangmo pondered for a mont, and then continued to explain, “This section of runes, by calculation, can yield their path code, I’m sorry, I can’t find a better descriptor.
So, the coordinates on the Otherworld Gate in Yazhi City are actually saying that, after the magic flows and is consud, the gate’s counterpart on Earth is copied at 131.036 degrees east longitude and 25.348 degrees south latitude.
The copied gate is connected to the original gate, making a trans-space leap.
But, due to principle of equivalent exchange, the Earth’s coordinates must also exchange an equivalent mass object, aning…”
“aning, this Otherworld Gate directly used the Aels Boulder by equivalent exchange, copied the Otherworld Gate at the location of the Aels Boulder, and then connected it to the main body!” Luo’er couldn’t wait for Tangmo to finish and shouted out loud.
“Exactly, that’s what these coordinates an.
As long as magic is injected, they will execute this program, turn the Aels Boulder into a copy of the Otherworld Gate, and then connect it to the main body!” Tangmo agreed excitedly.
“This is, ancient technology…” Luo’er widened his eyes, almost disbelieving his ears.
Although scholars from both worlds generally believe that the essence of Earth’s technology and the Otherworld’s magic are the sa, with Otherworld’s magic being equal to Earth’s technology.
However, for earthn, magic has a more mystical connotation.
Even though Luo’er and his companions have undergone systematic magic learning, they still feel that magic is inevitably associated with superstitious beliefs.
And now Tangmo’s discovery almost changed his whole perspective.
That is to say, a long ti ago, the magic technology of the previous generation’s civilization in the Otherworld was superior to that of Earth.
And these Otherworld Gates built by the ancestors are essentially the sa as the space-warping technology in contemporary Earth’s science fiction.
Luo’er rembered a science fiction novel on Earth, in which the aliens had mastered space-warping technology, but their weapons were very primitive.
In contrast, earthn had maxed out their technology tree on weaponry but couldn’t master the space-warping technology.
Luo’er thought that the aliens in this story were equivalent to the Otherworlders, and that the First Otherworld War was like these aliens flying their warp-capable ships for cannon fodder-like strafing runs.
It is imaginable that if the Otherworld continues developing at the Earth’s technological pace, their achievents would far exceed those of earthn.
Because Earth only has one generation, while the Otherworld has nurous artifacts from the previous era’s magical technology.
“As long as we can prove it’s correct, we can directly deduce where the Otherworld Gate of Lipei will connect in the Otherworld.
Because these coordinate runes, fundantally, are all the sa.
That is to set a section of code, specify a location to copy an Otherworld Gate, and then connect it,” Tangmo said excitedly.
She jumped up excitedly on the spot and then hung herself on Luo’er’s neck.
After laughing a few tis on him, Tangmo imdiately lost her breath.
Luo’er looked down and saw that she had blacked out from overexcitent.
Luo’er, caught between laughter and tears, shook his head helplessly, then carried her into the tent and let her sleep well.
He went over to Shariya, who was still holding Tangmo’s notes and furrowing his brows in silence.
“Dean Shariya, do you have any insights?” Luo’er respectfully asked.
“I don’t know much about the situation on your Earth, so I couldn’t decipher the aning of this…” Shariya said with a look of embarrassnt on her face.
“It’s fine.
It’s normal for you, being from the Otherworld, not to understand our Earth.
Despite her young age, she’s been interested in this area since childhood; you could say she’s been learning since elentary school.” Luo’er comforted her.
“If the aning of these runes is equivalent to duplicating a door at the coordinates 131.036 degrees east, 25.348 degrees south on Earth, and then connecting it with its original, then I guess I could decipher the coordinates of Lipei’s Otherworld Gate from these runes…” Shariya said, frowning.
“Why don’t you rest for a bit?
We can continue this once everyone’s had so rest.” Luo’er suggested.
“I’m fine.
Don’t let my age fool you, my energy surpasses even that of the youths.
As for you, Feliz, you should rest as well, you’ve been working hard for a long ti.” Shariya turned to Feliz and said.
“No, I’m okay.
I can help you!” Feliz waved her hands and shook her head, insisting.
For the first ti in front of Tangmo and Baiyue, Feliz felt her own insignificance.
Back in her days at the magic academy, Feliz, being proud and lofty, always wanted to trample Tangmo underfoot.
Now, she realized how foolish such a thought had been.
Even if we set aside innate magic talent, just based on the reserves of basic magic knowledge, Tangmo had far surpassed Feliz.
Due to the monopolization of the Magic Academy, she could only start learning magic when she was old enough to enroll.
According to Luo’er, Tangmo had been learning about magic since he first learned to write.
The fundantal education on Earth isn’t equivalent to the elite education of the Otherworld Magic Academy.
They strive to get everyone to a certain level in basics, and only then do they rank their students.
As a result of this education system, even Hu Daoke, with his poor magic talent, has a slightly better reserve of magic knowledge than Feliz.
While Hu Daoke couldn’t use advanced spells, he did know most of the basic ones and could draw so simple magic array runes.
When faced with a magic attack, he knew how to defend, unlike the clueless freshn at the Magic Academy.
The Magic Academy promotes education reserved for the elite; only nobles can learn magic.
This directly eliminates a large number of talented commoners.
What’s more, the “Matthew effect” at Magic Academy is severe, the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker.
“Listen, go rest.
Once you all have rested, I can take a break,” Shariya waved her hand, refusing Feliz’s offer.
It’s not that he disliks Feliz, he’s just worried about his student.
Shariya greatly enjoys the privilege of being a teacher.
Even though Tangmo joined the academy with an agenda and skipped class for over a year, Shariya still treats him as his student.
During this research, Baiyue, who contributed significantly, made Shariya feel like he was cherishing her talents and continually considering if he should let her further her studies at the academy.
It’s pretty common for the tutors at Magic Academy to privately admit students, almost an open secret.
They lant the fact that so children with excellent magic aptitude cannot enter the Magic Academy, so they help them enter through the back door for individual teaching.
Most of these students beco civilian mages, but so do manage to rise above their station and acquire noble status.
“Alright, your teacher isn’t shunning you, he just wants you to have a good rest and then help out.” Luo’er dragged Feliz aside, and then echoed in consolation.
“Well, I’ll go rest first then.” Feliz said, her eyelids starting to feel heavy.
Despite her best efforts to keep awake, the idea of rest imdiately made her sleepy.
“Hey, hey, don’t fall asleep here, go sleep in the tent.” Luo’er supported the tottering Feliz, unable to decide whether to laugh or cry.
“Can you carry there?
I can’t walk.” Feliz said, her eyes half-closed.
“What, you…” Before Luo’er could finish, Feliz had already wrapped her arms around his neck.
Luo’er looked at Shariya with embarrassnt, Shariya seeing this, shook her head helplessly and sighed, “Oh, young people…”
He had to admit Luo’er had a charm that attracted won.
If not, it would be impossible for so many girls from the Otherworld to be infatuated with him, given his half-elf status.
