Over the rest of the day, Rui rapidly consud the many research journal docunts that Julian had handed to him. Each of them was surrounding an esoteric substance or compound, and each of them was an esoteric compound that was strongly suspected to be tied to gravity in so form or manner.
Rui was quite impressed with the quality of the science, he didn't think he would do too much better if he only knew what they did. He had to admit, his inner scientific curiosity was roused to a little extent after his desire to build a sensory Martial Art technique centered around gravity.
He had to admit, esoteric science was fascinating, based on what he had seen. Had Martial Art not existed, he certainly would have enjoyed becoming an esoteric material scholar.
Yet by the end of the day, he found himself closing the last of the docunts that Julian had given him, before sighing and massaging his head.
"Tsk," He tutted. ('Not a single one of them could fully give what I wanted.')
It was unfortunate, but such was reality. They are all reactive to gravity in so way that could allow him to indirectly detect gravity, but they were all lacking in the details that he desired.
He specifically needed two paraters; gravitational field intensity and the many gravitational field vectors collectively known as the Ricci tensor.
eαglesnᴏνel These two paraters could allow him to figure out the layout of his environnt, as long as he had enough data points and detail.
(But even if a single one of them isn't enough… then maybe multiple of them will be!') Rui's eyes lit up.
The many esoteric substances gave him incomplete pieces of the puzzle.
Individually, they could not help him, but if he used the best of them together, then it was possible that he would be able to acquire what he wanted.
('It's not just a matter of picking the right selection of esoteric substances either, though,') Rui sighed.
No, that was just the first step. He needed to figure out exactly how he was going to use and apply these esoteric substances to be able to detect gravity itself.
His organic biological sense organs were directly connected to his brain and directly supplied information through the nervous system. However, this obviously would never be the case with external and non-organic esoteric substances. He could not turn them into organic sense organs that were connected to his brain.
('Good thing I don't have to,')
These esoteric substances may not be connected to the brain or to the body, however, it was still possible for them to serve as indirect pseudo-sense organs. By carefully observing the way they reacted, he could make inferences about the gravitational space curvature field around and on him. Based on the gravitational space curvature, he would be able to infer the layout of his surroundings that produced said gravity.
It was through this chanism that he would be able to thoroughly improve his sensory range without caring about the sensory jamming of the Shionel Dungeon. This would give him a massive advantage in the Shionel Dungeon that he was absolutely certain that almost no other Martial Squire would be in possession of.
However, he had not yet completed even the first step of making his choices of which esoteric substances to choose, let alone the next few steps. He needed to figure out how to apply them to gain the maximum amount of information on the curvature of space.
('I can't just carry them in my pocket, that would be useless…') He snorted before his eyes grew more solemn. ('I need to figure out a way to integrate them into my body.')
This was a dangerous path, but it was the only way he could be sure to have access to them at all given tis.
Of course, he did not intend to go extrely far with the invasive integration of foreign esoteric matter. Even light integration into his body would suffice. This was far less dangerous, and would still play their role and would allow him to perceive them through the sense of touch.
Furthermore, his body was exponentially more tolerant to foreign compounds entering it. While Squire-level poisons had proven to be too much for the most part, no ordinary human poison or Apprentice-level poison technique was going to be able to harm his body.
On top of that, Hungry Pain had given his body even greater nourishnt for his body and his healing processes and made him healthier in general.
He just had to pray that none of these esoteric substances were toxic enough to pose any aningful threat to him in any capacity.
However, even if all of it worked out, he still needed to figure out how and where he was going to integrate them into his body. He couldn't just swallow all these exotics and hope that when the ti ca he would be able to sense their reactions inside his body. That would be extrely foolish, and extrely useless. He needed to design the integration of these esoteric substances into his body carefully, taking into account Einstein's gravitational field equations to maximize the ease of sensing.
('I need to turn my body into the equivalent of a gravitational radiation sensing receiver dish,') Rui mused.
And that still wasn't the end of the process, even once he figured out the optimal integration into his body, he would still need to dedicate quite so ti to learning how to interpret and analyze the many new sensations and feelings that he would develop across his entire body.
That last step alone would probably take as much ti as mastering an ordinary sensory technique from the Martial Union.
('However… when I'm done, the technique that will be born from this project will be of a caliber that is almost unrivaled in the Squire Realm. My senses will be ever-present, and unextinguishable, not even Kane would be able to hide from them by the ti I'm done.')
