Chapter 189 Chapter 189 Self-confidence and cleverness

"When encountering a large number of numbers, I want to find patterns from them, What kind of arithmetic method should I use at this time?"

Reid pulled his long beard hard, pondered for a moment, did not answer this question, but asked: "Dagon, why are you asking this?"

Dagon without omission and in detail told Reid the content of the book "Infinite World Mana", and also added some of his own thoughts. As he speaks, the Soul Spirit middle realm can also reveal Dagon's memories, including the pages he sees. The data part is very vague because Dagon didn't fully recite it. The text and calculation parts are particularly clear because they are impressive.

He said to Rhett: "I'm thinking, there are many applications in this aspect to improve the efficiency of mana cycle by using the method of mutual promotion between elements. If we can further find the law in the data, use it correctly. method, it is possible to try infinite mana."

Reid coldly snorted, said: "Can you increase your power infinitely? Can you have infinite increase in power?"

Dagon slowly Shaking his head, he scratched his cheek.

"Actually, infinite mana is not impossible to achieve." Rhett's words caught Dagon's attention at once, he stared at him and pricked up his ears, waiting intently for the following, until he was poured a basin of cold water. "...As long as the dream is done well enough, anything can be realized."

"You just say no..." Dagon said: "Actually, I don't think it's very good, but this thing still seems to have It makes sense."

"It seems reasonable, but it often doesn't stand up to scrutiny." Reid said: "I understand how you feel, you must be thinking: If you can find a way to get infinite mana, or At least getting close to this goal will be of great help to everyone, especially Jiangu clansman."

"I do think that." Dagon scratched his head and said, "There are some calculations in the book... ..."

"That's called calculation? That's all bullshit!" Reid pointed to the written description in Dagon's memory and stomped his feet in anger. "Want to do statistical analysis and mathematical modeling at this level of rubbish math? Dream! It's even more outrageous than solving '1+1' with Calculus!"

"1+1 is not Is that equal to 2?"

"Don't be mad at me! It's fucking dead! Your knowledge is so far off that I can't talk to you. It's like...it's like..." Reid pinched his ribs with his hands behind his back, gasping for breath, and finally came up with a suitable metaphor: "It's like someone came over and said to you: straw is very light, it doesn't affect your activities, you should replace the iron armor with straw. Yes. Don't talk about arguing with him, even if you look at him, it's a shame! Do you understand?"

Dagon scratched his face and blushed. "Is it so outrageous?"

"The Five Elements elements on the world have been continuously influencing each other. If an infinite loop can be generated, it should have appeared long ago!" Reid said: "Although I haven't seen the whole thing yet. This book, but from what you have said, the author did not even take into account the marginal effect, which is obviously unqualified."

One question led to more questions, and Rhett gave Dagon explains what is called the marginal effect. As soon as he practiced the concepts with a martial skill that Dagon was particularly familiar with, he understood immediately. The so-called marginal effect is the same effort. The extent to which one can improve from a zero base is completely different from the extent to which one wants to go further after becoming an expert. Sometimes it cannot be improved, and it is not easy to ensure that it does not decline.

“If you think of mana as the power of spell masters, incantation as skill, and improvisation as agility, you can probably understand what’s going on.” Reid said: “In spell, you are just just now. entered , you are exposed to many concepts at once, and you are most likely to be confused at this time."

"Just like the beginner of martial skill sees those fancy moves and yearns for them, thinking that it is the most powerful ultimate move. ..."

Reid nodded, said with a smile: "That's probably what it means... I can see that there are problems with the statistical methods and calculation methods here, so the results obtained by the wrong method are The conclusion must also be wrong. To get rid of this kind of error, you need to use the correct method, dig deep into the core of the problem, find the root of the error, and your vision will suddenly become clear."

Dagon un'ed. He also pestered his adoptive father Tormund to teach him some nifty tricks, but only got some martial skills that looked "ugly", "boring", "no fancy", and more practice. Dagon didn't understand it at first. Later, he met a friend who could use fancy tricks and easily won with those boring martial skills. Only then did he know the father's good intentions.

"This incident reminded me, and your education should not be too step-by-step, otherwise you will be dazzled by the dazzling scene outside." Reid said: "Infinite mana, listen It's really moving, so you get the most out of it when you uncover it. Dagon, I teach you in advance how to organize and statistic data, how to try to build models, and you analyze what's in the book. When you're confident When you refute his theories, your ability and confidence increase."

"Isn't my confidence enough?"

Reid shook his head and said, "Compare the martial skill. And spell, where is your confidence in spell?"

Dagon calmed down and thought about it, and quickly understood what Rhett meant. If he joins the martial skill and sees an "infinite power martial skill", he will not be so excited, he will have more doubts and thoughts, and doubts have reasons and thinking methods. His confidence lies not in whether he can learn the invincible ultimate move, but in the assurance that he will not be confused.

"Didn't you also study the content of "Turn Qi into Stone" before? The 'yong' rune is good, but it should be just the beginning, and I feel that it still has a lot of room for improvement. Cycles and elements promote each other, the skills and abilities in this area will never be outdated, and you can indeed put some energy into practice. It happens to be practicing your arithmetic - you've been a little lazy lately..."

Dagon laughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment, and then he calmed down and listened carefully to Rhett's lecture. For some reason, Rhett's arithmetic course was much more interesting than "Incantation", and he didn't find it boring at all. This is actually because Rhett lives in his Soul Spirit intermediate world. The two have lived together for sixty years in a true sense, and the connection between their hearts and minds is far higher than that of twin.

One person's knowledge is easily understood by another person, as if that knowledge has been laid out, and the foundation of the arithmetic building was completed early, waiting for subsequent construction. Dagon can learn arithmetic knowledge from Reid, and if Reid can go out, he will also make rapid progress in martial skill, which is the same reason.

Without this spiritual intimacy and synchronization, Dagon's learning in arithmetic would not have been so fast and smooth, especially not so much faster than his fellow clansman. In fact, if Rhett could teach an arithmetic class at the Academy, and people of all races would learn together with the same foundation, Dagon would still be the fastest to learn.

However, arithmetic cannot be completed in one or two days, and Dagon's preparation time is only two days. On the agreed day, Shiloai came early. She wore warmer clothes and wrapped herself tightly, only her hands were directly exposed.

"Don't wear black." Dagon said straight to the point: "It's snow season, you should wear white, it's easier to hide your whereabouts. And your hands can't be exposed, Not even for the convenience of casting spells. I've swam in glaciers, and the cold is a very terrifying enemy."

"Let's talk about how beautiful it is!" Shiroai turned around in a circle, Black's mink trench coat actually has a skirt effect. How much does she like skirts and boots?

"It's pretty. But with so many hairs, how do you take care of it on the road? It won't look good when it's dirty."

"It's a barbarian who doesn't know how to spell! Look! I'll teach you a lot along the way." Shiloh snapped her fingers, her dress immediately turned white, the fur at the collar curled into a hood, and the sleeves began to lengthen, covering her hands. "This is the original look of this dress. It was in prom mode just now. With just one spell, I can clean the dress, so... thank you for not worrying about it."

"You still bring What? I don't see the backpack."

"I brought what I need for a normal outing, and then you, and that's enough." Shiloh said with a smile: "If you Throwing me down halfway, I can't find food, dare not drink water, and be treated as a snack by wild beast - how pathetic is that?!"

"If I leave you behind , you will definitely think of a way to grab me and feed the wild beast!" Dagon covered his forehead and said, "At least you can't be less prepared than going to Chimera. By the way, bring a few more socks to keep you warm. That kind of."

"Socks? Why all of a sudden?"

"Must keep feet warm. I think northern ice sheets and subsurface glaciers should be similar, my father said. However, without dry and warm socks, first your feet and then your life will be swallowed up by the cold." Dagon said: "I know you have prepared a mount, but the truth is still the same. If you don't move, your body will be colder. You Did you bring a peat stove?"

"It turned out to be just to keep warm, I thought you like socks." Shiloh said with a smile: "I'm too lazy to prepare those things, what did you prepare, Just prepare a set for me. Hehe, isn't this smart?"

Dagon thought for a while, then nodded. "This is indeed a good idea. You only need to prepare one set of hunting things, and the living utensils are prepared for two people at a time, and the carrying efficiency can be even higher. I try to carry them all on my back, but you'd better carry some light things with you, especially It's an emergency."

"As long as it's not too heavy, it's not a big problem."

"But it may affect the aesthetics." Dagon said: "The other thing is better, you have to Bring a rope with you, it doesn't match your clothes..."

"I can cover it up with the Illusion Technique, and it can still be beautiful." Xi Luoai said: "By the way, I will teach you some Spell knowledge, you take advantage of me."
