Black-haired Knight King of Chaldea

Chapter 858 VOL. Mathematician's Afternoon
In a certain room in Chaldea, two men gathered together on a table. On the plastic board table in front of them, there was an open book, which contained dense numbers of lead blocks connected by small symbols. Formed something close to a mantra.

"Well…………"

The man wearing an iron helmet and hiding his entire face under the mask made such a long and distressed voice.As he muttered, the flames on the top of the helmet rose explosively, and the surging sparks almost reached the ceiling!
"Hey, calm down, calm down, it's just a math problem, don't take it so seriously."

Seeing him like this, the old man sitting opposite him quickly persuaded him.

This is his room!The ceiling was burnt black, and I was the one who was uncomfortable living there!

While talking, the old man quickly closed the book on the table.

It wasn't until the annoying combination of numbers disappeared before his eyes that the flame above the man's head subsided.

I saw his two thick and powerful arms lying across his chest, with his hands folded over his chest, like a Greek statue.

In fact, he himself has a close relationship with Greece - Leonidas.

In anyone's impression, Sparta is a group of brainless and muscular people.

Only Leonidas vehemently denies this.

Incidentally, what Leonidas denies is the [both] statement.It is true that most of the Spartans are brainless and muscular people, but!As the leader of Sparta, he still knows how to calculate and is good at mathematics!

After all, if everyone is not good at calculations, there must be one or two people who can!

Today too, Leonidas heard that a mathematician had come to Chaldea!

Moreover, it is not a caster, but an archer!

How could this not excite him?

In Chaldea, the closest thing to a mathematician is Napoleon.

Historically, Napoleon was a person who was very good at mathematics, but he was still a little short of the level of a mathematician.

Leonidas had talked with Napoleon, but the topic would definitely turn into battlefields, strategizing and the like.

In particular, watching a young boy speak with overflowing confidence was not a pleasant experience for Leonidas.Sparta respected the strong.Contempt for things like magic.Looking at this thin emperor, I always want him to gain more muscle.

So when he heard that Caleb had a new mathematician, he immediately came to visit him.

When he heard that the other party was a mathematician, Moriarty was also very surprised, and said to himself... I really haven't studied history much, why, did mathematicians have to have muscles in ancient times?

If you think about it carefully, you are right.Others don't understand him, but academics who specialize in a certain academic research know too much. Once those people talk about their areas of expertise, they will talk about a lot of things that others don't understand at all, and they have nothing to do with the other party. The proof of irrelevance is just to show that you are knowledgeable and wise, and the result is often that the audience does not get what they want and wastes their time in vain.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, it will be accompanied by certain nouns that I often use, and the other party will say [No!This word does not mean that] Then Rory talked a lot.

Modern people have a brand-new term for this kind of person, which is called "gangjing".

Things that can be clearly explained in two sentences must be hidden in a long speech, and basically they are all explanations that have nothing to do with the other party's question, and they often criticize a certain word or a few words in the other party's words, using [Speaking Inaccurate] to open the topic and change the topic.

If you think about it carefully, this kind of person really deserves to be beaten.

In modern times, because of legal protection, it is illegal to hit someone, and it is impossible to hit the other party across the Internet.It was different in ancient times. Everyone discussed knowledge face to face, so they liked to argue so much. If they didn't have a good body, they would be easily beaten to death.

Moriarty reached an understanding on his own, so he chose a simple mathematical formula from his book Asteroid Mechanics to show him.

So there was the opening scene.

"What's the use of learning this kind of thing?"

Leonidas threw out this sentence angrily.

"Well... What's the use of asking me... Then I don't know either."

Moriarty chuckled.

"I'm just a mathematician, researching and solving problems. Verifying my own solution. In the beginning, I just accidentally discovered a feasible way to destroy the world in this book... Then I started to try my own ideas to see if they were correct. Woolen cloth."

As Moriarty spoke, he raised his head and stared at the burnt-blackened ceiling in a daze.

"Humph!"

Leonidas made a sound of disbelief.

"This kind of thing! It has no practical effect at all! Mathematics should be something practical! Marching and fighting! Daily exercise! It will become more orderly because of mathematics!"

He offered a completely different opinion.As he spoke, he reached out and clicked on the closed "Asteroid Mechanics" on the table.

"You can only study such illusory things. You are really similar to those people in Athens."

"Well, I admit it. There are many meaningless problems in mathematics. Especially problems such as opening the gate to release water and filling the pipe with water at the same time. Isn't this meaningless!"

Following his words, Moriarty sighed a few words, trying to end the topic and drive away this big fool.

Where to use him to catch up?Leonidas confirmed that she couldn't understand the mathematics in his mouth at all, and wanted to leave a long time ago.

After all, no matter how much Leonidas didn't want to admit it, he was still a member of Sparta, and no matter how hard he thought, he was only good at thinking in his muscular brain.It's like the No. 1 grade in the fifth grade of elementary school and the No. 1 among the professors in the mathematics department are two completely different concepts.

Although they are all No.1.

The mathematics in Leonidas' mouth is the closest to Napoleon's mathematics.Learning numbers is to kill enemies better.After all, Napoleon was an artilleryman. Whether he likes it or not, he has to calculate ballistics.You can't use Chinese to calculate ballistics, right?
Once Leonidas communicated with Napoleon, it would definitely end up being that one person crazily advocated that the general should defeat the enemy with all his muscles, while the other advocated that the general should sit in the rear and plan strategies.Anyway, neither of the two can convince the other of the meaningless level.

Confused by the formulas in Moriarty's asteroid mechanics, Leonidas raised his spear and shield, and said his farewell. Leonidas left without looking back, carrying: Why do mathematicians who advocate worldly practice like me leave with so little emotion.

Moriarty touched the book on his desk, and couldn't help showing regret and nostalgia.

"Joining hands with the Demon God Pillar Baal proved his way of destruction. This time... I will definitely..."

Moriarty closed his eyelids, and then opened them again. All the gentle expressions were put away, only the cunning and determination not to give up until the goal was achieved.

"This time—I'll be sure to prove my conclusions, too. There won't be any problems."
