Chapter 237 Dumbledore's Shock

He never expected that the 'heir' who he once thought could protect the magic world on his behalf would end up drafting him into the army.

It really is a good thing...

Dumbledore couldn't help but turn around and look at himself in the mirror again.

It has to be said that the power of time is strong. Even without considering the issue of the beard, time has left too many deep-rooted marks on Dumbledore.

Even though his face looked younger, anyone could tell from Dumbledore's eyes that he was an elder who had experienced too many things.

But... temperament is temperament, and the body is truly becoming young again. Dumbledore only feels that energy and vitality that he has never possessed in his life is constantly filling his body.

In fact, it's not that he has never possessed such tremendous physical strength, but that was so long ago, so long ago that it seemed like it was his previous life.

When Dumbledore came to his senses from the shock of rejuvenation, he finally realized what Du Mu had done.

"How did you do that? What world is this magic from?"

Dumbledore couldn't help but ask in surprise.

After all, in the magical world, rejuvenation and immortality are a fantasy that only a few people pursue.

In order to achieve immortality, Voldemort began splitting and playing with his soul almost when he was still a minor, turning himself into a monster.

In the final analysis, what we are seeking is just immortality.

Unfortunately, immortality is like creating something out of nothing. Not only has science made no progress in this regard, but magic is also powerless.

But now, without any cooperation from Dumbledore himself, he was simply... transformed back to his body in its prime youth.

The impact at this moment was so great that Dumbledore's heart began to beat wildly only now. He realized belatedly what kind of astonishing power Du Mu had just displayed so casually.

Du Mu smiled and said, "Almost. I got the ability to control electromagnetism from a certain world. That's the principle of condensing carbon atoms from the air to create a global live point map. I slightly changed your atomic structure, repaired your gene telomeres, and basically reshaped your body cells."

"But don't worry, the actual upper limit of the human brain's age is nearly 200 years, so I didn't touch your brain cells, and you don't need to worry about the Ship of Theseus."

Du Mu's words confused Dumbledore.

He also paid attention to the Muggle scientific community, but to the same extent as an ordinary Muggle old man reading a newspaper.

Dumbledore only had a brief exposure to most of what Du Mu said and did not have a very deep understanding of it.

So he was stunned and said, "Electromagnetism... that is, lightning? You use the power of lightning to rejuvenate me? What does human life span have to do with lightning? I'm not a robot."

Du Mu raised his eyebrows. Considering the times, most of the scientific achievements developed by Muggles have not been widely disseminated.

Even though Dumbledore is a great wizard, it doesn't mean he knows everything. Dumbledore has attached great importance to the scientific achievements of Muggles because humans were able to land on the moon, but he has not yet devoted a lot of energy to studying and researching them.

After all, I am old enough. What's the point of studying it? I will probably die of old age before I can fully understand it.

Of course, there seems to be no such problem now.

Du Mu had no choice but to patiently explain to Dumbledore the four fundamental forces of the universe...

In fact, after obtaining Brainiac's scientific achievements, Du Mu wanted to modify the definition discovered by this earth scientist.

Not much, Du Mu just wanted to add one more.

That is, the universe has five fundamental forces.

They are electromagnetic force, gravitational force, strong interaction force, weak interaction force, and mental force.

Brainiac's mind control ability is itself the result of his scientific research on mental power and belongs to the category of science and technology, not magic.

It’s just that mental power’s influence on matter is the most hidden, which is why it has not yet been discovered by the earth science community.

Things like souls, which exist mainly under the influence of mental power, do not interact with electromagnetic forces and are extremely difficult to detect from a macroscopic perspective.

For Du Mu, who can cover the entire planet with his perception anytime and anywhere, he has confirmed the existence of the so-called "Alaya Consciousness".

That is the ocean of spiritual power composed of all the people in each independent ecosystem. Without this thing, even if brain cell tissue can be formed, an independent soul and self-consciousness will not be produced.

However, generally speaking, even if it is a clone, as long as it lives in an environment with Alaya consciousness, it can also obtain its own mental power like a newborn baby.

Of course, the so-called Alaya consciousness does not have its own thinking ability, or even if it does, it is meaningless. It is like a pot of broken spiritual soup. The souls of all the dead people will be integrated into the Alaya consciousness, becoming a chaotic state, and then a small part will be separated and injected into the body of a newborn.

Generally speaking, the Alaya consciousness will be confined to the ecosystem of a planet. Only when the civilization of that planet develops and colonizes other planets will the Alaya consciousness follow.

But... there are two universes that are more special.

Marvel and DC, of ​​course.

In these two universes, Du Mu did not find any trace of the existence of Alaya consciousness.

Or in other words...it doesn't have an 'ecosphere' dividing line.

It is very likely that the entire universe shares the same Alaya consciousness.

The consequence of this is that the boundary between life and death becomes blurred.

After a person dies, he or she will turn into a so-called "soul" and enter the so-called "hell" or "heaven". From the true perspective of life and death, he or she is not dead at all. He or she just sheds the carbon atom shell condensed by electromagnetism and immigrates to other countries to start a second life.

Only when the soul is scattered can it be considered true death, and the mental power will be reintegrated into the Alaya consciousness common to the entire universe.

This is probably the underlying reason why the levels of most technological civilizations in the DC Universe and the Marvel Universe are actually not that different at all.

Whether they are humans on Earth or aliens, they all share the same thinking patterns and are shaped by the same subconscious mind. Therefore, their human nature, appearance, technological level, and physiological structure are similar. Although they are separated by the universe, they seem to be species in the same ecosystem.

It should be emphasized that the 'Alaya Consciousness' defined by Du Mu is not a new 'individual' or a place of 'reincarnation', so there is no possibility of it being 'discovered' by others.

As mentioned before, since he put mental power on a par with the other four basic forces, the 'Alaya Consciousness' in Du Mu's mind is more like a 'gravitational field' that has a wide-ranging influence on the entire universe.

You cannot say that the ubiquitous gravity in the universe is a life, an undiscovered individual or world. It is just one of the basic structures that constitute the existence of the universe.

So although the characters and even the gods in the works he read in his previous life never mentioned these things, in Du Mu's view, they were everywhere, just like gravity causing people to stand on the ground.

Just like the white paper behind the paint of a work of art, when people discuss it, they only mention the color of the work, and no one will specifically talk about how white the white paper with the color attached is, which is meaningless. Du Muyi and Dumbledore's popular science will naturally not only mention the things discovered in this era.

Naturally, he simply instilled into Dumbledore the 'common sense' he had learned from Brainiac's database.

Although Dumbledore felt overwhelmed and had stars in his eyes, he also felt a sense of novelty and excitement as if he had discovered a new world.

Especially Brainiac's research on mental power. Just a few simple sentences greatly inspired Dumbledore's understanding of magic.

Many of my previous confusions about magic now seem to have suddenly become clear.

Dumbledore had not experienced such pleasure of solving a mystery for countless years.

The last time I was so eager to learn new knowledge was half a month before my first contact with magic in my life.

The sense of pleasure of opening the door to a new world and the pleasure of using new knowledge to solve one paradox after another stored in the subconscious mind are simply indescribable.

Even the portraits of past principals who were pretending to be asleep in the principal's office couldn't help but prick up their ears.

In order to take care of Dumbledore, Du Mu naturally talked more about spiritual power which is more related to magic.

This kind of knowledge that truly involves the nature of the universe is like when scientists first discovered atoms. There is a kind of ecstasy, as if they had unravelled all the secrets and veils of the world.

Of course, this is just an illusion brought on by the excitement of making progress.

Knowledge is a circle. The more you know, the more you know what you don’t know.

Now the circle in their hearts is slowly expanding. Everywhere they look, all the things they didn't know before are answered one by one. They move forward with great joy.

When the circle of knowledge is fixed, what awaits them is the next confusing and hazy veil of the world.

Those are things for the future. At this stage, Dumbledore was listening with fascination, but after a while, his head began to hurt.

Du Mu also keenly noticed the disorder in Dumbledore's brain waves and stopped his statement and popular science.

Dumbledore asked quickly, "Why don't you say anything more? Say a little more. I feel like I've vaguely grasped the core of magic. Chanting spells and using wands are unnecessary. Even the spell itself is just a restriction on concentration. I seem to be reaching a certain threshold..."

Seeing Dumbledore so anxious, Du Mu smiled and shook his head: "Principal Dumbledore, there is no rush to study. Although your body has become younger and your energy has returned, your brain is already nearly a hundred years old. You should take a break."

Dumbledore immediately blew his beard and glared, "You have made me young again, and now you start to dislike my age? When I was young, I studied magic and stayed up for days and nights. How can I get tired so easily!"

Unfortunately, staying up late is harmful to the health of young people, and Du Mu’s thoughts cannot be easily changed by others.

Seeing that Du Mu no longer narrated the extremely precious underlying logic of the world, Dumbledore could only shake his head helplessly.

After this study, Dumbledore's mind was full of magic-related knowledge and operations, and he couldn't wait to get started in practical research.

But he is still Dumbledore after all, more of an elder who cares about young people than a research enthusiast pursuing the way of magic.

Studying magic can only be said to be his interest. What he really cares about is still the safety of the magic world and the future of young people.

So he could only temporarily suppress the urge to start studying magic immediately, and turned to look at the global live point map on the table.

“No wonder you can make this thing…”

Dumbledore stepped forward and looked at the densely packed names on the Marauder's Map. He couldn't help but sigh, "Does the world still have any secrets for you today?"

After Du Mu's popular science education, Dumbledore has understood why being able to control electromagnetism can control the so-called carbon atoms.

But after understanding it, it brought him an even greater shock.

Before I understood: It was simply created out of thin air.

After understanding: You actually created something out of thin air!

The whole world, whether it is human beings or buildings, whether it is living things or dead things, in the final analysis, is all various atoms bound together by electromagnetic interactions.

And Du Mu who can control all of this...

Dumbledore turned his head to look at Du Mu and couldn't help swallowing.

I even compared him to Merlin before.

Merlin doesn't have that ability.

It's more like...the God in the Bible.

The wizards in the Hogwarts world are not atheists, but they do not believe in any gods either.

Because they believe that God really exists, but they are not sure of God's image, name, what mythological god it is, or which god it is.

Some wizards scoff at the Muggles' religion, while others are in awe of it, because they are not sure whether the true God has really given oracles to certain Muggles, which is why his name has been passed down by word of mouth among Muggles.

however……

Today, right now.

In the headmaster's office of Hogwarts, there was an 'individual' who could do almost everything in the Seven Days of Creation, standing in front of him.

God created the world in seven days, and created: light, air, land, sky, animals, humans, and work and rest.

Dumbledore looked at Du Mu and couldn't help asking, "Du Mu, can you create the sun now?"

Du Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at Dumbledore. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "If I use some technical means, it's OK. But if I'm not allowed to use any technical means or magic, and I just rely on electromagnetic ability to create it out of thin air, it won't work. The nuclear fusion of the sun is not under the jurisdiction of the electromagnetic field."

Dumbledore finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, creating the sun still requires some external help...

Although theoretically, it is not difficult for Du Mu to create a star with Brainiac's technology, that is equivalent to humans creating nuclear fusion, which is a product of wisdom rather than strength.

In this way...at least Du Mu could not do the first sentence God said in the Bible: Let there be light.
