Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first? Chapter 559: 69: Science Invalidation

Chapter 559: Chapter 69: Science Invalidation

“I just encountered a new type of monster on my way to the Church Court.”

On the road, Nora tried to converse with her companions:

“These monsters’ bodies are similar to Spiritual Polluters, but they can fly agilely through the air, which makes them hard to hit with abilities.”

“I saw them using vines that extended from their bodies to pierce and contaminate the Transcendents around them, then they grabbed them and headed towards the city center.”

“Didn’t they try to attack you?” Aske asked.

“So did.” Nora nodded, “But I summoned the surrounding Spiritual Bodies to entangle them.”

“The situation was at a stalemate for a mont, and the Temple Knights also ca to help. Then suddenly the Spiritual Tree grew in the city center, and the monsters imdiately flew back. Soon after, the mutation spread quickly, and the Temple Knights were also affected by the mutation, turning into a strange state.”

Everyone ca to the next block, and following Nora’s direction, they saw so Temple Knights standing, kneeling, or lying prone in the middle of the street, also turning into a translucent state, muttering indecipherable syllables.

“That’s what happened.” Nora said helplessly, “I tried to check their condition.”

“Their physical condition is good, but their Spiritual Body seems to be twisted, and their Mind Body has completely disappeared.”

“The reason is simple.” dea explained, “They must have entered the Spirit Realm.”

“The Spirit Realm?” Nora puzzled.

“It’s a higher-dinsional space.” dea explained, “Your Church must have also studied the high-dinsional spiritual planes, right? It’s unobservable, unimpactable, only provable in mathematical terms… They must have gone there; their bodies were forcibly ascended.”

“Are you saying their material state dispersed, so they beca unobservable?” Inspired by dea’s explanation, Nora seed to have an epiphany, “Because it dispersed into a higher-dinsional space, it can’t collapse and thus becos unobservable?”

“Yes.” dea said, “In your scientific terms, it’s what you call the Quantum Ghost State.”

Aske: ……

“Do you understand what they are talking about?” Aske asked Thira, who was next to him.

This girl had been educated in the Imperial Family of the East Solomon Empire, so she should understand their academic discussion.

“Squad leader, do you know the Observer effect?” Thira tried to explain, “When you don’t observe, the system is in a superposition of states A and B. Once you observe, the system collapses into either state A or B.”

“Observation equals collapse, conversely, dispersion prevents observation. The so-called Quantum Ghost State refers to the system being forcibly dispersed into a superposition of A and B, making it impossible for you to observe the state of the system…”

“Hmm, I see,” Aske said nonchalantly, “That’s enough explanation.”

Thira didn’t go on, just secretly chuckled to herself. Even the squad leader has monts of awkwardness.

“Does this discussion have any significance?” After a while, Aske interrupted their endless academic discussion.

“Aske, do you rember the previous Spiritual Polluters?” Nora said with concern, “Kinetic-based firearms had no effect on them.”

“At first, I thought it was a kind of invisibility ability, but now it seems more likely to be an influence from a higher-dinsional space. Because low-dinsional ordinary attacks are hardly effective against high-dinsional creatures.”

“Just like a two-dinsional paper figure firing an arrow with zero thickness, such a weapon wouldn’t harm a person in three-dinsional space; a zero-thickness object would just pass through them.”

“If these creatures really co from the legendary Spirit Realm, then most of the Church’s technological weapons would be ineffective against them. This has been validated by the academia of the Empire since the Fourth Epoch: even the weakest high-dinsional monster is an unequivocal disaster for our world.”

“Hmm, if technological weapons can’t harm it, could only extraordinary abilities damage it?” Aske recalled his previous experiences and asked again for confirmation.

“Yes,” Nora responded affirmatively. “Our current understanding of extraordinary abilities suggests they are a simplified phenonon of high-dinsional physical laws in three-dinsional space, so only extraordinary abilities can harm them.”

“But don’t forget, the ranking system in the Extraordinary World is even more ruthless,” dea reminded from the side. “If in the scientific world there’s a chance for a child with a short sword to kill an adult holding a rifle, in the Extraordinary World, a lower-ranked entity almost has no chance against a higher-ranked one due to the vast differences in both the capacity and quality of their spirituality.”

Her words were heavily implied, almost outright saying, “We should run away imdiately.”

“So, Nora,” Aske ignored her suggestion and asked, “are you still going to the Church Court to find your brother?”

“Yes,” Nora replied without hesitation. “I am a Transcendent and can threaten these monsters, but my brother can’t.”

“Since this is my personal matter, I don’t want to involve everyone, so Aske, you can take everyone and leave first. I’ll pick up my brother from Ratlan Palace and et you outside the city.”

“No, we’ll go with you,” Aske said.

“Why?” Nora widened her eyes.

“Because we are a team,” Aske stated.

“Ding ding ding!” dea jokingly added sound effects, “Nora’s affection level has increased!”

“It’s not about affection,” Aske stated. “I just want to witness these so-called high-dinsional beings. If anyone isn’t willing to go, speak up now and let dea take you to leave early.”

The girls looked at each other.

“As you said,” Eleanor shrugged. “After all, we are a team, and of course, we will follow your command.”

“Good,” Aske nodded. “Our destination is Ratlan Palace, let’s set out.”

Thus, the mbers of The Azure Longsword set off again towards the Church Court.

Aske quietly estimated the combat power composition of the team.

As Nora and dea said, physical attacks are ineffective against high-dinsional beings; only actively wielded extraordinary abilities would work.

This ans, the least suited in the team to face high-dinsional beings is , isn’t it?

After all, Eleanor’s Will Armor and Light Flow, Nora’s Spirit Manipulation, Thira’s Storm and Gravity, Sigrdrifa’s Frost and Thunder, dea’s Flas, Mia’s Shadow, and Peggy’s Death Law all constitute actively wielded long-range extraordinary abilities—compared to them, my Star Nine Forms, although useful, suffer from the limited attack range of a sword, and this ti the high-dinsional beings can fly.

But fortunately, thanks to the War Law’s Plunder Skill, it looks like I’ll need to “borrow” so abilities from them. I wonder what traits of high-dinsional beings can be plundered; I’ll have to collect more intelligence later.

Aske pondered for a mont, then suddenly felt sothing odd.

Did I forget to count soone?

After recounting the people around him, he finally realized:

It was Miel…

Miel’s firearms and her ability to manipulate luck are not suitable for attacking high-dinsional beings.

This operation will have her responsible for scouting from a distance.
