The periodic table is sothing even middle school students know, and it can even be said to form the underlying logic by which most civilized people of the 21st century understand the world.
As for sothing built on cognition, I always took the chemistry pool for granted like common knowledge, never really thought about how to prove it.
Does this thing even need proof?
And how in the world do you prove it in the ga?
I wonder if it's the developers' intentional design, testing the limits of the physics engine. Miranda, like a sticky candy, relentlessly followed him wherever he went, crouching beside him when he logged off, and even if she disappeared for a while, she'd suddenly pop up to give him a scare.
Never thought my first experience with a stalker would happen in a ga, and by an NPC at that.
Chugging the chemistry pool was also in tears, even beginning to regret that pretentious act he put on for two days.
If it weren't for the fact that the Contribution Value was indeed scarce, he would have considered giving his head to soone to return to the resurrection point!
Chugging the chemistry pool thought it over and realized there was only one possibility; the ga's developnt team must have targeted him, thus forcefully using the ga chanics to make him test the ga's physics engine.
Since that was the case, hiding seed aningless. Might as well comply with the damned developers; maybe he could even score a reward.
And he didn't believe it anyway.
This crummy ga could simulate a few physical phenona with code, but could it really replicate all the physical and chemical principles of reality?!
If it really were that amazing, then how would you explain magic?
Having made up his mind, Chugging the chemistry pool stopped walking, turned, and looked back at the ghost floating persistently behind him.
"Seeing as you sincerely want to learn, I can teach you...but I don't have the tools right now, you have to give so ti."
Miranda nodded in excitent.
"No problem! Take as long as you need! I can also help you!"
He now completely saw the skeleton soldier in front of him as a teacher.
Chugging the chemistry pool nodded approvingly, threw down a "Follow " and moved out of Mist Town towards the third level of the maze, Iron Teeth City.
So experints were inconvenient to conduct in Mist Town due to a lack of tools and too many unrelated people.
He feared causing so commotion that would alert Lord Demon King, ending up with a deduction of his Contribution Value and goodwill—definitely not worth it.
Iron Teeth City didn't have these concerns.
That place was the headquarters of the Group-think Corporation, brimming with heaps of scrap to be collected and a crowd of underlings who could not only help him scavenge outside but also process parts for him.
After roughly half a day of gathering materials, Chugging the chemistry pool with his Mole People gathered various bottles and jars and settled in a corner that was out of the way.
Miranda closely followed him.
Both being Undead, no creatures would take an interest in them, so the experint could mainly be conducted outside the living area.
Watching Miranda follow behind, Chugging the chemistry pool stopped, a solemn light flickering in the soul fire within his skull.
"First, you understand that this world is made up of 118 elents, right?"
"Yes!" Miranda nodded, "What I want to know is how you prove this."
He swiftly added another sentence.
"Of course, I'm not asking you to prove the existence of all 118 elents at once...at least I want to know what the so-called 'difference between gases' is all about."
Everything must be taken one step at a ti.
Being able to prove the limitations of the six basic elents was already a groundbreaking progress. Before figuring out "what it is," he was more eager to tackle the "whether it exists" question.
Looking at the eager ghost, Chugging the chemistry pool said.
"I will prove that with you, but before that, I need to introduce you to a basic concept..." after this pause, he cleared his throat and continued, "These 118 elents can actually be further divided."
Miranda was instantly shocked.
"Can be further divided?!"
They say being half a step ahead is genius, ten steps ahead is madness, but he could no longer tell which category this skeleton belonged to.
And what astonished him more was that, according to the skeleton soldier, almost all the Undead in the Great Graveyard were aware of this theory.
If that were truly the case, how powerful must the Demon King who summoned these "sentient and extraordinarily knowledgeable" Undead be!
The one before him was rely the most basic level of skeleton soldier!
Thinking back to the man who rescued him from Novel's mouth, Miranda now only regretted that his fear had caused him to run too far, never managing to exchange even a single word with him.
Slightly fearful of that fanatical gaze, Chugging the chemistry pool hastily explained.
"Yes, but don't think too much... Anything smaller we can't observe, we can only speculate their existence."
In fact, according to 21st-century technology, this statent isn't accurate.
But Chugging the chemistry pool was certain that if he started introducing concepts like quarks, leptons, bosons, etc., not to ntion this Magic Apprentice with seemingly Renaissance-level scholarly ability getting baffled, even he, a half-baked coder, would probably get confused.
According to the worldview of this ga, this world probably hasn't even birthed scientific thinking yet.
In the face of dieval-style dogmatism, even the empiricism that flourished from the 17th to the 19th century seed a bit too advanced.
