Chapter 750 The Rise of Starry Sky Exploration (First Update Asks for a Monthly Pass)
Leilia, Cherie and the others stood outside the small laboratory, looking at the "portal" and magic patterns that had dimmed in the light, reluctant to take half a step away, as if there was a cat's claw in their hearts, it was really difficult to contain their curiosity.
After a while, Ophelia next to her said: "It's useless for us to stand here, and we don't know when they will be able to come back, so let's go about our own business first, anyway, Heidi and the others will definitely tell us what they saw when they come back."
As long as it doesn't involve secrecy, Heidi can never hide her words.
"Well, there are still many scheduled experiments to do, data analysis, new experiments, and magic analysis......" Leilia originally just wanted to agree with Ophelia's words, but as she spoke, she felt that her life was so "gray".
Lazar nodded slightly, clapped his palm vigorously, and said with a bright smile after everyone's attention shifted: "Don't wait here, who knows where Evans and the others have gone, how long it will take to return, go back and complete your experiment first."
When he talks to Lucian and familiar friends, he calls him "Lucian" directly, but at the Atomic Research Institute, in order to respect the "director", he calls Lucian "Evans" when talking to his apprentice-level assistant.
"Yes, Mr. Lazar." Lowe and the other apprentice-level assistants glanced at the small laboratory reluctantly, suppressed their curiosity, and slowly paced towards their respective laboratories.
"I don't know where the teacher and the others teleported?" Cherie said to Leilia suspiciously.
Leilia thought for a while and said, "It should be related to research in the microscopic field, otherwise the teacher will not be placed in the research institute, and you can reapply for a magic research project."
The two of them turned around while talking, enthusiastically guessing the "destination" of the teacher's magic circle - although Heidi and the others would definitely know about it after they came back, but isn't the most fun part of this kind of curious thing just guessing?
Leilia and Cherie hadn't taken a few steps when they suddenly felt the magic fluctuations behind them burst out, and in the induction of the mental force field, the magic patterns in the small laboratory lit up one after another, constantly drawing energy from the "Alinge Magic Tower", blooming with silvery and pure light.
In the dreamy light scene, the dim "portal" regained its brilliance, transparent and dazzling.
"Are you back?"
"Honorable Evans, are they back?"
In a series of doubtful and excited voices, Ophelia, Lowe and the others who slowly paced back to their respective laboratories jumped back like rabbits, reacting quickly and quickly, as if they had been waiting for this moment.
The "Gate of Light" suddenly erupted, and the pure and immaculate light flooded the entire small laboratory.
When they disappeared, the "portal" also disappeared, but there were five more figures in the center of the magic circle, Lucian and Annick and others.
"Heidi, where have you been?"
"Heidi, what did you see?"
Leilia and Cherie blurted out, asking Heidi who told her that she couldn't control her mouth the most!
Heidi didn't get used to the vertigo that came back when she heard the question from her two friends, rubbing her forehead and smiling: "You must not guess where we went, it's really a 'romantic' place."
"Romance?" Lazar couldn't help but repeat, this keyword seemed a bit wrong.
"Romantic ......" Leilia and Cherie can't imagine it, they have guessed a lot, but it has nothing to do with "romance" at all, this is the Atomic Research Institute!
Heidi smiled proudly and said, "Yes, a very romantic place, more romantic than any romantic scene I've ever seen!"
After seeing the surprised expressions of her companions, her vertigo disappeared quickly.
"Uh...... Is it the starry sky?" Ophelia asked not very surely.
Heidi was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise: "How do you know?"
"Is it really a starry sky?" Lei Yilia asked in astonishment.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on her, Ophelia said slightly shyly: "I just remembered that there was an issue of "Alinge Impressions", which investigated the romantic scenes in the minds of many magicians, and the first place was to look up at the starry sky at night, which can not only feel the vastness of the universe and its own insignificance, but also experience the transcendence of the long river of fate, not disturbed by anything, so I boldly guess that you went to the starry sky......"
"The target of the investigation must be mainly astrological magicians!" Heidi muttered, "Okay, Ophelia, you guessed it, we did go to the starry sky, the teacher set up a cosmic observatory over there for us to study cosmic rays and observe passing asteroids, Leilia, Cherie, you must not have imagined the feeling of being in the starry sky, it is boundless darkness, far-reaching darkness without end, stars are embedded in it like dazzling white dots, without the slightest flickering, like an eternal picture."
She became excited as she spoke: "Only by truly going to the starry sky can we understand our own insignificance, understand the vastness of the entire universe, and have a sense of awe from the bottom of our hearts, feeling that the universe is extremely sacred, countless times more sacred than any verbal propaganda god! I have only now truly understood the words of His Excellency the Speaker when he sternly rejected Pope Viken, how can a person who has experienced the 'sea of stars' and aimed at it look down on a 'god' nesting on this small planet?"
Heidi's description made the relatively emotional mages such as Leilia, Cherie, and Ophelia dazzled, as if they were also in the starry sky, with that indescribable feeling, and the magicians of the elemental faction such as Lazar and Jerome were also moved, as if they were moved.
Lucian next to him shook his head amusedly, "Space Observatory" still has educational significance in this regard? Can it help magicians establish a healthy outlook on life, worldview and values, find inner emotional sustenance, and not be tempted by the Truth Cult?
"Teacher, I, when can we go to the Space Observatory?" After listening to Heidi's description, Leilia looked at Lucian with sparkling eyes, showing a sense of impatience in both expression and movement.
The same is true for women such as Cherry and Ophelia, and men such as Lazar, Roque, and Lowe say nothing and try to control their emotions, but their burning eyes deeply "betray" them.
Lucian chuckled: "This is for you to experiment, and in order to save the consumption of teleportation back and forth, you must stay on it for a week at a time, if it's only an hour or two, being in the starry sky is indeed very romantic, but what about the long time? The boundless darkness, the emptiness of nothingness, the eternal loneliness, will make you feel like you are on the verge of going crazy, even if you have four companions, this is not a feeling that can be offset by romance, you can only adapt slowly, you must also be mentally prepared, otherwise I will not let you go up."
"Teacher, don't worry, it's no problem if I don't speak for a month." Annick took the lead in expressing his position.
The lively Heidi frowned slightly, but still rushed to say: "Teacher, when we are on top, most of our energy will be focused on experiments, no matter how empty the surroundings, no matter how dark or lonely we are, it will not affect us."
"Then you each draw up a research plan, and I will choose the most detailed ones." Lucian smiled.
Heidi "quietly" said to Katrina and the others: "Sure enough, it's the devil's smile......"
For the sake of the "romance of arcane research", they quickly dispersed and began to prepare experimental plans to study cosmic rays and the vast starry sky.
"Leielijah, when you get to the Cosmic Observatory, you will truly understand the feelings I just described...... I had imagined a scene before, where I was alone at the Cosmic Observatory, sitting on the ground with my knees crossed, with endless darkness and clear stars up and down, left and right, and there were no living beings except me...... It would be nice if we could see the planet we are on, and that sense of solitary indifference that looks down on everything and transcends everything will be even better!" Heidi couldn't stop talking and said to Leilia, everyone has their own romantic feelings in their hearts.
Leilia didn't think Heidi was verbose, but listened intently and sighed: "Even if there is no scene you envision, just being in the starry sky can make the vast majority of arcanists envious."
"Haha, especially those guys from the tower and the star system, they will definitely be so envious that they want to hit the wall, who told us to have a good teacher!" Heidi thought of some of the friends she knew and smiled even more happily.
…………
Tower.
Samantha was concentrating on studying the newly drawn astrological chart when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps from far to near, knocking on her door.
"Rachel, are you in such a hurry?" As Samantha raised her head, the door retreated on its own.
Rachel said excitedly and eagerly: "Your Excellency Evans has established an observatory in the universe for the study of cosmic rays and astrological charts!"
"Universe? Observatory?" Samantha repeated in astonishment.
"Well, Heidi and the others have been to this space observatory, and they are really in the starry sky, the feeling she described is really, really ......" Rachel "really" for a long time and didn't "really" come out, but the envy on her face couldn't hide it.
Samantha stood up and muttered to herself: "In the starry sky?"
The vast starry sky is the most sacred and noble place in the heart of every astrologer magician, and being able to roam the starry sky is one of the motivations for them to strive to become legendary magicians, and now, can they be in the starry sky in advance?
"Yes! The arcanists in the tower are boiling, some people have proposed that we build one ourselves, and some have applied to the research committee to borrow the space observatory of the Atomic Research Institute!" Rachel said excitedly, "Hurry up, let's draw up a research plan too!"
Although Lucian's "Cosmic Observatory" is a giant ninth-level item close to legendary, it consumes a lot of materials, and the Magic Council can't support many, but it is not a legendary item after all, and the tower can still afford to build one or two.
Samantha said a little confused: "Have you started the journey of the 'Sea of Stars' so soon......"
It's the last three days, ask for a monthly pass, it's going to be three watches these days! By the way, thank you Lan Shang Yun, Hui, Gu Yichuan and other friends for their tips.
