Within the Intelligentsia Guild, the leaders of its various academic factions all began reading the universe's first paper published by the 83rd Seat genius—Herta.
The leader of Candelagraphos, Mozi, examined it word by word and line by line. Very quickly, he realized that every line of reasoning in the paper corresponded perfectly to the Solitary Waves Theory formulas once written by Patavia.
That could only an one thing—the Fourth Cosmic Conundrum, Solitary Waves Theory, had truly been solved.
The woman nad Herta had accomplished what the Intelligentsia Guild's Candelagraphos faction had failed to achieve despite striving for several Amber Eras.
Mozi rembered it clearly. Throughout the generations, successive leaders of Candelagraphos had dispatched research teams. They had even once utilized the computational power of an undamaged Emperor's Scepter. Yet in the end, every attempt had ended in failure.
"As expected of the 83rd Seat... Herta... I will rember this na. She is destined to leave behind a weighty mark in history."
With that thought, Mozi raised his head and addressed the gathered scholars of Candelagraphos.
"The Fourth Cosmic Conundrum has been solved. Such an event deserves to be recorded in grand detail. All of you, begin printing and publishing books. Let scholars across the universe know that Solitary Waves Theory has been solved!"
After speaking, Mozi added another sentence.
"Of course, do not forget that the publication royalties must be paid to Madam Herta. This is also a way for our Candelagraphos faction to establish contact with her."
The scholars of Candelagraphos nodded enthusiastically and imdiately began acting according to their leader's instructions.
On another side, still within the Intelligentsia Guild, there was another faction—one that had even erged victorious in the academic faction wars—the Quantum History School, also known as the Quantum Divination School.
Its leader, Schrodinger, was likewise reviewing the paper outlining the solution to Solitary Waves Theory. Then, through divination, he attempted to determine—now that Herta had solved Solitary Waves Theory and provided an answer—whether the future of this vast universe was fixed or chaotic.
In the end, Schrodinger obtained a peculiar result.
The universe's future was both fixed and chaotic—existing sowhere between the two.
The leader of the Quantum faction, Schrodinger, fell into deep confusion.
Was the universe's future certain, or uncertain?!
Wait...
When I perford the divination just now, I did not include those lofty Aeons in the calculation!
I understand now!
Perhaps it is precisely because those Aeons exist that the universe's future becos so unpredictable—caught in a quantum superposition state between certainty and uncertainty?!
After reaching this point in his thoughts, Schrodinger prepared to write another paper based on Herta's research.
The future of the world is quantum...
anwhile, elsewhere, within the Intelligentsia Guild's Technology Departnt, its chief director, Yabuli, ca to a conclusion after finishing Herta's paper.
Herta had indeed solved a Cosmic Conundrum and beco a genius.
But the answer to Solitary Waves Theory... rely added another brick to the grand theoretical edifice of imaginary mathematics.
It was completely impossible to comrcialize!
Perhaps the 83rd Seat of the Genius Society, Herta, was simply a theoretical genius.
The company had spent an enormous price to reach cooperation with Herta. Perhaps for a long ti to co, they would not obtain the research results they truly desired.
After arriving at this judgnt, Yabuli tossed the paper aside and instead asked Chadwick when he would finish researching the Imaginary Implosion Pulse.
With her status and technical expertise as chief director of the Technology Departnt, Yabuli had already recognized that the Imaginary Implosion Pulse—currently under years of research by the 79th Seat of the Genius Society, Chadwick—
Was an extraordinarily powerful weapon.
It possessed the potential to annihilate one—or even several—planetary systems with a single shot!
Yabuli eagerly anticipated the birth of the Imaginary Implosion Pulse technological weapon. At the sa ti, she felt fortunate that the company had discovered the 79th genius of the Genius Society long ago. Chadwick was unlike those other geniuses with bizarre personalities.
This one truly pursued both fa and profit...
A genius with a normal way of thinking—such geniuses were exceedingly rare, and the easiest for the company to bind with contracts.
And the reality was exactly so. Most of Chadwick's valuable research patents had already been registered by the company rather than by himself.
Including the soon-to-be-born Imaginary Implosion Pulse.
If only... the newly erged 83rd Seat genius from The Blue were also soone who pursued fa and profit like Chadwick.
Yabuli could not help but think this. Then she saw Chadwick's reply:
"The Imaginary Implosion Pulse project is still in the research and testing phase. It will take another half year—perhaps even a full year—before the project is truly implented."
Half a year, or a year?
The company could afford to wait.
With that thought, Yabuli sent Chadwick a ssage encouraging him to keep up the good work, promising that as chief director of the Technology Departnt she would dispatch additional scholars to support him. Then she raised her hand and reviewed the recent communication records between Scholar Patavia and Herta, as well as Herta's life records on The Blue. She could not help but sigh.
"The 83rd Seat of the Genius Society, Herta—a genius wholly devoted to research projects!"
"Fortune Glue that grants good luck and allows one to pass a peaceful day, the solution to the Fourth Cosmic Conundrum—Solitary Waves Theory, even mirror AI... all of these are achievents from just after she reached adulthood!"
"No friends. Extrely arrogant and self-confident—to the point that it borders on narcissism. Completely indifferent to others' opinions. Utterly self-centered."
"It seems my hopes have fallen through. The new 83rd Seat of the Genius Society is not soone like Chadwick who delights in fa and profit."
"But it does not matter. She is rely a theoretical genius. She cannot bring greater profit to the company!"
After reaching this judgnt, Yabuli turned to other matters.
As chief director of the Technology Departnt of the Interastral Peace Corporation, she was very busy.
...
Outside the Intelligentsia Guild, across the cosmos, mbers of the Genius Society also subscribed to the universe's top journals and read Herta's paper solving Solitary Waves Theory.
"Analysis: The formatting of this paper is filled with chanical aesthetics. Conclusion: Could it be that the new mber from The Blue, Herta, is a chanical lifeform like ?!"
This was the CPU analysis and deduction of the 76th Seat, the monarch of the chanical world, Screwllum, after finishing the paper.
...
anwhile, In a remote corner of the cosmos, Polka Kakamond, the Lord of Silence, activated the Knowable Domain and examined Herta's paper.
After confirming that the research was relatively superficial, incapable of deducing whether the future of the universe was fixed or chaotic, and that it had not touched the boundary of Erudition nor reached a forbidden level—
Polka Kakamond, who had originally been preparing to make a trip to The Blue, lowered the scalpel in her hand.
