Chapter 566: The New Era’s Scientific System

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the little stone house on the mooncake, Zhi Nan fell silent after the three of them left.

A brief moment later, he held up a thick book, and on the cover, it said – The Analysis and the Expansion of the Second Law of Thermodynamics.

He flipped it open and read with a lot of focus. “In any one system, entropy forever increases. In other words, any system will inevitably increase in randomness, and perish at last...

“Hmph, is this saying that in the entire universe, immortality is actually a false statement?” He said coldly.

The only thing was that his frightening words were not heard by anyone else.

Some moments after, Zhi Nan placed the book down as if he was thinking about something.

Not long after, he reached his finger out to point at the ground, then the rock mass began changing non-stop.

From the most original stones, they turned into silicon crystals, steel mineral, and heavy metals. All sorts of modern materials appeared one after another...

At the very end of it all, a brand new CPU was born.

If this incident were to be recorded into a video and put on the internet, it would surely shock countless people.

Was this considered as the mystery of magic or the power of science?

Right now, nobody knew what Zhi Nan wanted to do.

...

While the devils were all learning, on a contrary, a just vigilante was being completely ignorant. He either farmed spots or underwent training every day.

If a scheming person saw this situation, one would naturally be worried.

On this day, Butler Zheng found Vigilante A and personally sent an intelligence report.

“Venerable One, according to news from Truth Department, the Americans are having a new scientific discussion, and the organizer is Black Robe, Devil Lord Zhi Nan’s subordinate.”

“Oh, it’s that fellow who ran away when he saw me, what issue can there be?” Vigilante A sounded very calm as if he was unconcerned at all.

“Venerable One, they’re discussing, with the new Era of Vitality, how should they rebuild the new scientific system. For the original disciplines, how should they improve it to reuse it to explain the various new features of the Era of Vitality, it looks they’re aiming for something big.” Zheng Dao sounded like he was extremely worried.

“Oh, is that so? This has nothing to do with me, let them discuss if they want to, the Truth Department will probably consider this.”

When Zheng Dao noticed that the Venerable One was unbothered at all, he no longer continued and left quietly.

He had a deep understanding that chasing after theoretical heights was exactly the strength of western scientific systems.

In early stages, the distance was not obvious. Once the experiment passed, the theory was inspected, and in turn, caused the improvement of craft production which would be used to fulfill production in the end, it would translate into an enormous power.

The reason China was lagging in recent eras was that knowledge from ancient times was only concluded through experience on the surface. It did not rise to theoretical heights, and did not form into a system which should be used to instruct the resolving of problems.

As a consequence, feudal societies kept repeating history and never once reached the cusp of a breakthrough.

For now, the Americans had suffered through the initial period of the Era of Vitality, the moon crisis, and the revolt of demons. Finally, they were going to rise up.

He knew very well that these Americans were certainly not like what some people had thought, who said that they only knew how to enjoy instead of working hard.

It was the exact opposite of it. Their abilities to endure hardships was not bad at all, instead, they were full of creative spirit. They were not fond of doing repetitive work, and were habitually theorizing methods and laws, and in turn these would further advance their research.

The garage culture and the geek culture, these cultures that represented creative spirit were related to America.

The moment they got an idea of the new era scientific system, it would be their time to escalate. Unquestionably, their extraordinary powers would be successful.

When that happened, it would be unknown if China could continue to repress them, or even maintain their edge in weapon technology.

From a certain perspective, the current techniques in China were mostly mysterious, and were entirely up to an individual’s comprehension, whereby another person would have a different cultivation method. In actual fact, this was terribly ineffective.

While it could nurture peerless powerhouses, it was not beneficial for production in large numbers.

He thought for a while but still decided to send an email to the Venerable White Dragon.

He believed that he would probably understand the seriousness of this issue.

In the System Space.

Fang Ning who had just woken up from his Dream Cultivation happened to see Zheng Dao’s email. The moment he read it, he instantly became perturbed.

“Sir, why didn’t you say anything?” Fang Ning pointed at the email as he asked.

“Why should I remind you, you’ll complain that I’m disturbing you from cultivating.” Sir replied firmly.

“Uh, don’t you know how serious this is? This is much more serious than the birth of one or two big demons!” Fang Ning was exasperated.

“Is it so serious? Aren’t they just a bunch of feeble elders who are discussing endlessly on what science is, what vitality is, what isn’t science, and what isn’t vitality... I’ve been hearing a lot of those when I was running around these days but I don’t see anything dangerous? It’s not an unsurpassable ability anyway.” Sir was in disdain.

Upon hearing that, Fang Ning was outraged. “You ignorant system! Haven’t you heard that you’ll get bullied and humiliated if you lag behind?”

“I have, aren’t we lagging behind now? While they research science, I trained some new sets of abilities.” Sir expressed confidently.

“Uh, you’re really short-sighted. They’re building their foundation now, and when they’re done with it, they can build buildings of any height. In the past, they were exhausted from running around to counter crises popping up but now they can spare some time to explore fundamental theories with a large number of resources. If their fundamental theories take shape, all kinds of cultivation technique will go to them easily.” Fang Ning could only explain patiently.

“Oh, is that so? That’s quite good. When their fundamental theories take form, we’ll just use it.” Sir said it as a matter of course.

Fang Ning was extremely speechless. “Do you think we can use everything? If we lack this research ability, the ability to change a ready-made system or theory, when there’s another drastic change from a new era, the same tragedy will repeat itself.”

“What do you suggest we do then? I’m just a martial art system, not a top-class system. I don’t know about physics and chemistry, and I’m even more clueless about making experiments or writing theses...” Sir responded helplessly.

“Hmph, it’s normal that you don’t know, we can just look for someone who knows. I’m sure that the Truth Department has been on this matter for a long time but after all, they’re in a different position. They’re a military unit which is the unit that maintains safety, not a research institute, thus it’s impossible that they transfer many people to study the fundamental theories.” Fang Ning mentioned.

“So you’re saying?”

“Mmm, we have to build our own Scientific Academy for Vitality, and the location will be at the newly built Morality City. We’ll rope in talents from the whole world to research the new era’s scientific system in order to explain and predict various changes. In this case, we’ll be able to avoid unnecessary calamities. For example, there were weather forecasts in the past that forecast typhoons based on airflow phenomena. Now, typhoons might be created by the seafolk, hence it’s hard to make accurate forecasts, we must employ new laws.” Fang Ning explained seriously.

“Oh, Mr. Rich Boss, you’re really something, I didn’t think that you had this good an understanding in science.”

“Nonsense, that’s because I”m a programmer, it’s a profession that pays particular attention to science. Lies can fool humans but it can’t fool a machine, right means right, and wrong means wrong.” Fang Ning shook his head.
