Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2479 Madamedemaintenant

There is a movie called "The Matrix", which Snape has absolutely no interest in watching, but this movie seems to be very popular, and there are programs everywhere introducing it, which is about the real world experience in the future. After the nuclear war, humans could not generate electricity, so machines put people in petri dishes and provided bioelectricity like batteries, while human consciousness remained in the 1990s.

  This virtual world is called "matrix". Although modern matrices were proposed by British mathematician Kelly in the 19th century, there were other matrices in distant ancient times, such as Latin squares and magic squares.

The magic square also has a name, called Hetu Luoshu. In this matrix, the sums of several numbers in a horizontal row, a vertical row and a diagonal are all equal... All in all, the matrix is ​​a common tool in advanced algebra, and is also commonly used in Applied mathematics, including astrophysics and quantum mechanics and other fields.

Why not assume that this is a virtual world similar to the "Matrix". On the surface, she is in the early 19th century, but she is actually the same as Neo in the 1990s. The difference is that Neo needs to install a interface, and the world doesn't.

   As for what Lyle Mayer said, "people in this world are neither really alive nor really dead", it means that they are pieces of "code", not "non-existence".

She remembered a plot, there was a traitor, he didn't want to continue living the life of hiding and drinking oatmeal, even though he knew that in the matrix world, the steak he ate did not exist, but all kinds of He was still willing to serve the matrix despite the hallucinations that stimulation gave him.

  Without the "Savior", what does the fate of mankind have to do with him? His mutiny was different from Peter Pettigrew.

   In other words, in "The Matrix", if the human consciousness wants to leave the matrix, it needs to send a signal from the real world. When the person in the matrix picks up the phone, the consciousness will follow this signal and leave.

   Similarly, if you are seriously injured in the virtual world, your brain will think that you are really injured so badly, just like when you put a steak in your mouth and chew it.

  The human body has unusual responses to stimuli, which may be good or worse.

  Memphis and Neo can jump great distances without fear of the floor they are on because they know the "rules" - the world is not real - so they can do things beyond the imagination of people bound by rules.

   But the bullet still hurts the body, and the brain is still used to taking it as "real", even though the bullet doesn't exist like the crooked spoon in the hand of the child Neo met at the prophet's house.

  The child said to Neo, don't try to bend the spoon, because it is impossible, instead, try to see the truth.

   Perhaps, this is the crux of Georgiana's ongoing problems.

   She wants to "bend the spoon", which is impossible. However, if she just sees the truth but does nothing, what's the use of seeing through the truth?

Prophets and Oracles If the events they predicted did not happen, then others would regard them as liars, and when people knew the future they mentioned, they would definitely take action. For example, the “prophet” told Neo not to Go worry about that vase, if the "prophet" doesn't tell Neo about the vase, then Neo won't move around and accidentally knock over the vase.

Or like the story Pomona heard in the Louvre, an ancient Egyptian who wanted to know his lifespan and was told by a ghost that he had perverted the law to pay for his funeral, leading to his arrest and death sentence , it happened to answer the "prophecy", or maybe Voldemort heard the prophecy that "both can't live" and decided to kill Harry Potter himself. In fact, the children born in July were not only Harry, but also Neville Longbottom, a child who was unremarkable most of the time.

  Georgianna fiddled with the flowers in the vase, and Neville seemed to have a strange ability to hear the sounds of plants. When she was still in a coma, she once had a dream where she shouted "Watch out for the time changer" to a crab claw orchid or some other plant.

  The crab claw orchid in the dream does not exist, so how did Neville get this news?

   At this moment, the door of the lounge opened, and Ludrel walked in.

   "What's the matter with you?" asked Georgiana.

  Ledrel did not speak, and the maids retreated silently.

   "What's the matter with you?" Georgiana asked after everyone had left.

   "I'll see you," said Ledrel.

   "I have nothing to look at." Georgiana smiled wryly.

  Ledrel did not speak.

   "The mouth is on other people's faces, and what others want to say is their freedom." Georgiana said blankly, "I can't sew all their mouths."

   “We want you to be happy, and you can drive them all away if you want,” Luderer said.

  Georgianna sneered, if she really did that, she would probably become a laughing stock in the future.

   "You heard that Goya painted a portrait of the King of Spain?" asked Georgiana.

   "Yes, ma'am," said Ledrel.

   "Then have you heard that Goya's painted queen looks old and ugly?"

  Ledrel did not speak.

   "His patron is dead, and if he doesn't want to be dealt with by the Inquisition, then he should try to please the Queen." Georgiana said, "You know what the Queen said?"

   "She said it was a good painting," said Ledrel.

"The Oracle of Delphi said, 'Recognize yourself'. Some people would rather accept a glorified portrait, even though it is completely different from himself, and he is unwilling to accept the reality." Georgiana said, "Someone asks you for 'youth' Potion'?"

   "No, ma'am." Ledrel shook his head immediately. "I told them there was no such thing."

  Georgianna did not answer immediately.

   Her fingertips touched the flowers in the vase, causing them to "wither" quickly, when in fact they weren't, she just used polymorphism to make them look withered.

  Ledrel looked at her calmly.

   Just when she was about to disperse her magic power and make the flowers return to normal, Yestral suddenly appeared. It seemed to be very hungry and ate all the petals and leaves. She clearly remembered that Yestral eats meat.

   In Ledrel's eyes, all the petals have disappeared. Sometimes it's not a good thing that the room is too big, and no one notices when a big horse comes in.

"They can say whatever they want, but they can't say that they can get the magic potion from me that can make people immortal. I don't have it here." She said indifferently, "When we love something, we often don't want to be the same. , and even turn people who love the same thing as competitors, but when we hate someone, we tend to look for like-minded people.”

   "I think you're overthinking it," Ledrel said.

   "People without far-sightedness must have near-term worries. This is an oriental philosophy. Believe in the wisdom of these ancestors." Georgiana said indifferently, "Especially when you are facing a room of 'carefree' people."

   He froze for a moment.

   "Our relationship with Spain will not always be so good, especially after Britain and Spain compete for the new hegemon at sea, Spain will compete with France for land supremacy. I don't want this road to become a 'loophole' in the future."

   "You mean, don't sell the bonds to the Spaniards?" asked Ledrel.

   "Can you stop this? Marketable bonds can change hands. Even if we don't sell them to Spain at first, someone will sell them."

   "What do you mean?"

   "Are the silver coins shipped from Mexico enough for Spain?" asked Georgiana.

   "I heard that the king sold his property with the Pope's permission," replied Ledrel.

   "Do you now understand what the crux of the matter is?" asked Georgiana.

  Ledrel still seemed lost.

"There are a lot of coins slumbering among the people. These coins are locked in the vault and stored for hundreds of years without worrying about depreciation. The king needs cash, but even if there is money from Mexican silver mines, these 'flowing water' have entered their vaults. It has also become stagnant, and selling educational property will not solve the problem, not to mention that you think the Belgians will be happy that foreigners control the projects on their land?"

   "You mean..."

"They can say whatever they want, but they can't say that they can get a potion from me that can make people live forever. I don't have it here. When we love something, we often don't want to be the same, and even love it instead. Competitors of the same thing, but when we hate someone, we tend to look for like-minded people." Georgiana interrupted Luderer, "What's the worst you can imagine?"

  Ledrel stared at her and whispered in her ear.

   "To avoid this, we should..."

   "I know how to do it," Ledrel said immediately.

   "Come on, call my maid in by the way, I'm going to change." She said tiredly, "I used to think that Josephine was too exaggerated to change four sets of clothes a day."

  Ledrel smiled and backed out. After a while, the maids came in. None of them mentioned the sudden disappearance of the flowers in the vase, as if nothing happened.
