Chapter 607 Something’s wrong
It is three months since Kepler was launched.

The weather was already showing signs of being a little hot, but an office in the Tower of Stars was already bustling with activity.

"This is not right." Poincare stared at the writing board in front of him. There were not only formulas written directly on the board, but also many waveforms drawn by machines.

"What's wrong?" Not only Kano asked, but also other elders who were watching the live broadcast through the communication system.

Poincare began his speech, but soon others expressed their headaches and begged him to stop. Oh no, to describe their discoveries in a more concise way.

"I have explained it briefly." Poincare raised his eyebrows. "As a high-level spellcaster, mathematics is a basic skill."

"Of course, but we also have our own areas of expertise. You don't want to hear me talk about the long list of ancient Yabe language to modern common language system and the impact of its phonetic changes on the chanting effect, right?"

"Now that you mention it, I'm quite interested, Master Hadinan." Poincare somehow wanted to confront the chief of the Dark Tower.

"Analysis from linguistic structure to phenomenology, and the introduction of paradigms into the field of psychoanalysis"

"No, thank you, Master Feuerbach. I understand what you mean. I'm sorry, I shouldn't impose my expertise on you."

Poincare pondered over the complex spectrum for a while, tried to organize his words, pointed to the thickest and most prominent band and said:

"Now we can see the complete link of a spell chain, from the most basic and confirmed 'Magic Condensation' to the most advanced unknown node codenamed '3_θ'. Each main peak represents a fundamental spell, or a node on the Tree of Truth.

"Thank you Master Rorschach for your theoretical support in this regard. Although I don't know how he cracked the node information, the feedback I got from the Kepler station shows that the results I have found and matched are basically reliable."

"very clear."

"Clear is the result of a lot of filtering and mathematical transformations. Sorry, back to the point. Their peak intensity represents the activity during observation. To be precise, the peak intensity is related to the number of users and the energy level of the nodes, so we can see that the peaks are high at the two ends and low in the middle."

"Yes, your summary is a bit too general."

"Thank you. The specific functional relationship between the two factors and the peak strength remains to be verified. It is worth mentioning that the impact of many alchemical equipment on the link is beyond imagination, far exceeding that of ordinary individual spellcasters, which has caused great trouble to our work."

As he spoke, Master Poincare looked at a receiving end, inside which was a white dog's head, winking as if to say: It's none of my business.

"The overlapping peaks represent the intersection of the link points. The triple peaks do not mean three intersections, but rather a binomial distribution pattern."

"Excuse me, Master Poincare, this part can be skipped. We want to know more about where we went wrong." Kano reminded on the spot.

"Okay, I have introduced the true meaning of the main peak. Now let's look at these noises. They are either caused by the distortion of the receiving equipment, or by interference in the original layer or the influence between nodes.

"In a known link - from the cracked node, it is mainly a chain of evocation spells related to 'lightning' and 'fire'. Ha, evocation magic is always the easiest to figure out. Its noise is very messy, but the peak strength is almost the same."

"But, note that this known node has a link to 'Resurrection'. I guess it is related to the natural system."

Everyone's attention was focused on the receiver and transmitter representing Kober. During this period of time, Forest Tower was often at the center of events, whether it was active or passive, negative or positive.

"Its miscellaneous peaks are very unusual. Some of them are even as strong as the main peak. I mean, it doesn't make sense for it to have more than twenty ring levels, right? Is the upper limit of natural magic that high?" "Anyway, it's unfathomable." Cobb responded.

"No, no, no, if that's the case, I'll change my job right away. But in recent days, the Kepler station has sent several sets of repeated observation data, and they have recorded the three links they have locked on again, including this one that is strongly related to the natural system.

"Interestingly, the spurious peaks have completely changed, and the frequency band position of the main peak has also shifted slightly. The errors of the other two chains are negligible."

Feuerbach pointed out directly: "The natural system is of course related to the Mother Goddess, which means that the Mother Goddess can exert influence on the Tree of Truth and the spell chain."

Everyone fell silent for a moment, and suddenly the noise from the instruments in the office dominated.

If Mother Earth can directly influence the original layer and the Tree of Truth, then it is equivalent to "flirting" to all spellcasters. Just thinking about it makes my spine cold.

Kober was the first to break the brief silence: "Nothing is surprising. When the pollution broke out in the central part of the empire at the beginning of the year, the magic of the Forest Tower in a specific area went out of control."

"It's different! Now it has an overall impact!" Some chiefs were not so calm.

Poincare tapped his writing board to draw the elders’ attention back to himself, making it seem as if he were giving a lecture to the other masters:

"The bad news is that we have not only captured similar overlapping peaks from the spell chain related to the nature system, but also from the other two chains. However, they are not as significant as the peak I mentioned above, to the point where they can shake the main peak.

"Also, what I said was 'wrong' is that I had Kepler re-observe the 'natural system' correlation chain today. The position of the main peak has returned, and the noise pattern has changed again. Is this good news?"

"Of course not, because we don't know why it changed and why it was adjusted back."

Sometimes research can be frustrating. The result of in-depth exploration may be to know more, or to know more unknowns, and the latter is often more common.

Rorschach did have a guess, but he couldn't verify it, and it was difficult to tell the other elders and chiefs directly. The strong connection with natural magic was not only to the Mother Goddess, but also to Dryatz. Perhaps He was maintaining and correcting the link?

But when did his power become so strong? Could he compete with the Mother Goddess? In Rorschach's impression, there was only one god who could dominate the world.

Poincare concluded the study: "Whether we use mathematical language or plain language, we will face a cruel reality. The Mother Goddess can not only infect our material world, but also exert influence on the original layer."

Kano suddenly suggested: "We need to follow the example of the Empire, roll out the magic weavers, and change the way we cast spells."

"You mean to use that 'string magic' from now on?"

Of course, Rorschach had to stand up for his teacher and himself: "I agree with Master Kano's proposal. I will publish a set of basic spellcasting tables and tutorials to the guild to ensure that everyone can learn. At least in the future, all alchemical equipment should be manufactured according to the new standards to ensure safety."

"Why can your magic standards guarantee safety?"

Feuerbach wanted to say that he had no comment, but he could vouch for Rorschach. Unexpectedly, the young man said directly: "Because I have a substitute for the Tree of Truth."
