Chapter 145 There is everything in the dream
Roland benefited a lot from his communication with Master Watson, and after ending the communication, he still had endless aftertaste.
Simply use the "transcription technique" to transcribe the entire conversation for easy reference at any time.
To this end, he also specially attached some of his own thoughts and comments, and gave the conceived spell a name.
"Since it's related to dreams, let's just call it "Dream Technique"."
At the same time, Roland composes an article at the request of Master Watson and submits it to the "Arcane Review" to evaluate the results of his magical improvement of "Wish Technique".
The title of this article is called, A Brief Discussion on the Interconnected Principles of Linguistics and Prayer.
"As we all know, linguistics plays an indispensable role in the application of magic. If we only study natural language itself, it is not difficult to find that language naturally has imperative functions such as commands, requests, advice, warnings, prohibitions, etc.
This has a common principle with the wish spell in the arcane field.
The imperative function refers to guiding the other party to make a certain behavior or attitude by using positive or negative words, which is often used in daily life.
Suppose there is a dance, and we hope to win the favor of a certain beautiful woman and dance with her. We usually walk forward and say something like, 'Oh, this lady, you are such a dazzling star. Your appearance and temperament are so beautiful.
Make me intoxicated, may I have the honor to dance with you?' to express my request.
But this kind of imperative statement may not be 100% successful, because it involves your own appearance, temperament, status, wealth and other conditions, as well as the lady's aesthetics and her mood at the time.
If you are a handsome man with an elegant temperament and exciting people, I think you should be able to omit the redundant words and just go up to you and ask, "Do you want to dance?"
Such concise language is far more effective than mediocre people saying all they can.
This principle is also common in other aspects of daily life. We often use language to issue imperatives and commands.
Language directly affects people's psychology and behavior, and can make people decide to take action. The specific effects often vary depending on the status and interpersonal relationships between the subject and the guest.
For example, among people with similar status and equal status, if you want to use the art of language to make others do things, you need to master certain skills.
We usually express our wishes and attitudes with affirmative, kind and friendly language, and reward them with gratitude.
Appropriate tone and tone also help convey mood and attitude.
We can use a friendly tone to request others, a firm tone to give orders, and a serious tone to express dissatisfaction.
Sometimes, pleading is a surefire way to say, 'Sir, please do me a favor and subscribe to the original version.', 'I have been writing books for thirty years and I have never seen what a monthly ticket looks like.', 'You're already here, just call me.
"Give me a reward" and "The author is just a child" can inspire people's sympathy and understanding, thereby gaining support.
Euphemistic and connotative language is also an art. For example, if you want to have a more intimate relationship with the lady at the ball, just say "look beep——", even if you are a respectable gentleman, so
Being direct may seem vulgar and rude.
And if you change it to 'Excuse me, madam, I am very curious about what kind of charm is hidden under your tasteful clothes. I wonder if you can elegantly take off these artificial fabrics that cover up your perfect body and let me get up close.
Appreciate the masterpieces of nature, they are undoubtedly much more elegant.
All this shows that natural language itself has the function of connecting consciousness and changing consciousness. It is a natural magic, and mastering and using it is also a kind of knowledge in itself.
Returning to the realm of arcane magic, magicians discovered that expressing their wishes and appeals through prayers, incantations, etc. gradually evolved into a powerful spell over time.
This is the origin of the prayer technique..."
Einstein once explained the theory of relativity in plain language.
You sit next to a beautiful woman for an hour and it feels like a minute;
And one minute sitting by the fire in summer feels like an hour.
Of course, this cannot be accurately explained from a scientific perspective, but it is ingenious when used to popularize science in the popular field.
This article by Roland describes the relationship between linguistics and prayer from a popular perspective.
Okay, kids, now you know the basic arithmetic equation 1+1=2. Next, let’s do calculus.
Roland briefly discussed the magical significance of Archmage Watson's research results from the perspective of Seris.
"It turns out that the principle of wishing is like this! It's so enlightening!"
"Mr. Roland's words are so subtle!"
"I said to my maid last night, 'Sit up and move by yourself', and she really did it... Do I also know how to pray?"
"What a coincidence, I can do this trick too!"
"It turns out everyone is a great magician!"
"Uuuuuuuuuah, you are all lying bastards. I just tried to say something like this to my father's maid, and I was slapped and even hung up and beaten by my father!"
The comment area is filled with a happy atmosphere.
What is discussed here is actually a serious arcane principle, which reveals the possible risks of using "wishes".
If something goes wrong while using a powerful magic like "Prayer", the end result will be more than just being hung up and beaten.
It will bring about the terrible negative effects that any spell of the same level can cause.
In the history of Atrein, there was a time when someone used this magic to make a wish to become rich and powerful, but as a result, they carried gold from the country's treasure house and smashed themselves to death.
There are also people who make a wish to get a perfect lover, but the result is that they attract a monster who is good at mind control, allowing him to experience an almost perfect simulated life in a mental illusion.
But when this dear friend was rescued, he couldn't accept the cruel reality and collapsed on the spot.
Such examples of "distorted wishes" are not caused by someone secretly causing harm, but by nature itself being unable to correctly understand the meaning contained in words, resulting in certain deviations.
For example, if you ask a servant to pour you a glass of water, the new servant may not know your personal habits and may pour you water that is too hot or too cold, causing you to get burned or suffer from gastrointestinal discomfort.
And when you don't have enough character but you boss around others, you are more likely to be caught on the spot and given a severe lesson.
This is the backlash of Mana.
Once you understand this, you actually understand the basic principles of how prayer works, which is equivalent to knowing how to boil water.
The next steps of sealing, energy conversion, and power generation are the practical path of constantly climbing the technological tree.
What Roland wants to try now is to deconstruct it using the text attached to the Seris language.
…
Time passed quickly, less than half a month.
In the mage's tower, in the residence.
"I'm going to start the experiment. If there is anything abnormal later, don't be surprised. I will handle it myself."
"Okay, Master, I wish you success."
The light gradually became dim and even disappeared completely.
Al, the succubus companion, kissed Roland, covered him with a quilt, then walked out and closed the door.
Roland closed his eyes, counted several times silently, and began to fall asleep.
Accompanied by a trancelike feeling like traveling through space, his consciousness entered the world of dreams.
The first thing that catches the eye is a huge tree with a height of more than 300 meters. Like the legendary image of a building tree, it stands tall against the sky and opens up a piece of heaven and earth in the cold universe of nothingness.
This is like a mythical world with a round sky and a square place. The surrounding void is vast, dark and cold. On the earth below, the land extends out, forming a huge and desolate infinite scene.
There is not much rich stuff here yet, most of the soul's heritage is underground, buried in the form of crystal mines.
The dream fairies gathered around, babbling and talking.
Roland followed their guidance to one corner of the building and found a fruit that was obviously newly grown and was exuding pure spiritual energy.
"What is this? You don't know either? You only know that there is another world hidden inside?"
Roland had heard of the saying "One flower, one world".
Unexpectedly, it turned into reality in my dream.
He curiously put his spiritual will into it, and as expected, it was the content of "The Chronicles of the Five Emperors" already included in "The Romance of Siris".
Immediately afterwards, the dream fairies took him to visit several other branches, each of which also had fruits.
"Xia Benji"
"Yin Ben Ji"
"Zhou Benji"
…
"This fruit seems to be Jianmu absorbing my spiritual energy and condensing it automatically.
It can attract more details deep in the soul, causing it to gather and take shape..."
Roland had a vague feeling that this kind of food was not for eating, but for looking at.
He did not move them rashly, but came to the ground, sat cross-legged under the huge tree trunk, and got busy according to the previously designed plan.
Spells that can guide one's own promotion are not so easy to accomplish.
During this period of time, he had put in a lot of effort.
