A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 627 Computational Power is the Fundamental

"What kind of enemy... Oh, I didn't have time to tell you just now - as far as I know, he is an alchemist," Lin Wuming said, "He can instantly turn everything around him into gold..."

"Huh? Is there really alchemy? Magic that turns iron or lead into gold?" Kamijou Touma, who had been listening quietly, said quickly, "Then he must be very rich, right?"

"If his alchemy could be effective permanently." Lin Wuming shrugged.

Lin Wuming checked and found that the emery and small steel balls in the storage compartment of his wheelchair were all there, and they were all in their original state, without any gold mixed in.

I don't know if it was because Oreos didn't want to reveal his flaws, so he restored all these substances, or because after leaving the area of ​​​​Misawa Academy, they automatically returned to their original forms...

"Don't interrupt, Touma! I'm asking something very important!" Index glared at him sternly. "According to the Church, magicians aren't welcome in this city. Stiyl, Kanzaki Kaori, and I were special cases last time, so we had approval in advance. So, what about that alchemist Mr. Lin Wuming mentioned..."

"He didn't get permission and entered the country illegally," Lin Wuming nodded. "I've already confirmed this with Chairman Aleister."

"Hmm..." Index pondered. "Don't worry, I'll ask the Church about Mr. Lin Wuming's 'stigmata' and the alchemist. But, as expected, I still lack information."

“Hey,” Kamijou Touma immediately became alert, “Don’t go to that Misawa Academy! Under normal circumstances, you have no fighting power at all, and the ‘Mobile Church’ is broken!”

"Of course they know about this!" Index exclaimed, "But it's also true that we lack information!"

"Well, I'm really sorry that I can't provide more valuable information." Lin Wuming said helplessly, "After all, I'm not a magician, and I know nothing about this kind of knowledge... Oh, right!"

"What's wrong?" asked Tiger Bee Toumi behind him.

"I have a big learning gift package in my hand. I will take a good look at it later." Lin Wuming suddenly remembered the tablet computer he got from Chairman Aleister last time.

Since he has little interest in magical knowledge and has been quite busy recently, Lin Wuming has not had the chance to sit down and take a good look at the contents on the computer.

Now that there is an urgent need, we must start studying even if we have to cram at the last minute!

Index on the opposite side looked at him with a complicated expression... From a standpoint, the scientific side is interfering with magical knowledge, which is undoubtedly an operation that touches the red line.

However, Index did not have much resonance with these "taboos" and "red lines". Because she had regularly deleted her memories before, she only knew about these things as "knowledge" and did not actually have much personal experience.

In Index's opinion, it was no big deal for the psychics in Academy City to want to learn magical knowledge. What really worried her was another piece of "knowledge" in their minds - psychics and magic could not coexist, and anyone who tried to master both powers at the same time would suffer a terrible backlash, or even endanger their lives!
"Mr. Lin Wuming, you have superpowers. If you want to learn magic..."

"I'm aware of the risks involved," Lin Wuming said. "Don't worry, I'm only learning about magic, not magic itself. After all, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle."

"That's good!" Index showed a relieved expression. "Mr. Lin Wuming is indeed trustworthy, a mature and reliable man. He is much more reassuring than Touma!"

"Hey!"

Index ignored Kamijou Touma's protests and said, "Mr. Lin Wuming, if you have any questions during your studies, please feel free to contact me. Although I can't cast magic, I am confident in my knowledge!"

"Thank you in advance, Ms. Index." Lin Wuming did not refuse her kindness. "The same goes for you and Kamijou-san. If you have any difficulties or needs, you can come to me."

Leaving the ward, Lin Wuming couldn't help but sigh, "In the end, I still got nothing..." At most, it just gave Kamijou Touma a heads-up. If the original storyline had continued, he would have personally gone to conquer Misawa Academy in a few days, and he wouldn't have been so confused by then.

"Really? What kind of business-like communication was that just now?" Shokuhou Misaki complained from the sidelines. "Ms. Index, Mr. Lin Wuming, and so on..."

"After all, this is the relationship between her and me." Lin Wuming shrugged. "She's not a student here, so I can't just call her classmate."

"So, Wuming-senpai, are you really planning on going back to study magic?" Shokuhou Misaki asked, "Isn't it a little late to start learning from scratch now?"

"It's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep have been lost. We must start now." Lin Wuming said.

——You also know that this knowledge will always be useful in the future.

——That’s true, but in comparison, I still think that the idea just proposed by Senior Wuming is more feasible.

Shokuhou Misaki looked over with a smile.

"Just now..." Lin Wuming was stunned for a moment, "Ah, it's that..."

Misaka Mikoto rolled her eyes on the other side: "Tsk, it starts again..."

——These two have started an "encrypted conversation" again. By the way, doesn't my Railgun have an application that can conduct encrypted conversations?

Theoretically, yes, but the prerequisite is that the other party must also be an electric shock user.

"Haha, don't worry," Shokuhou Misaki smiled and looked over, "I'll tell you... when the time and strength are right~"

After being reminded by Shokuhou Misaki, Lin Wuming also recalled a previous idea of ​​his -

Oleios's "Golden Derivatives" is an ultimate deduction. Its essence is to accurately calculate all the variables in the world, and then reproduce the entire world in his mind - that is, to create another world.

Omniscience, then omnipotence.

Because of this, Oreos can become the "God of Creation" in his own field.

To put it scientifically, Oreos created a "Laplace's demon." Ultimately, it was using extreme computing power to simulate a world.

Similar things are not uncommon in Academy City on the scientific side, but the degree of completion is lacking.

The primary use of almost all supercomputers is to do similar things.

The best among them is the "tree diagram designer".
