Aztec Eternals

v1 Chapter 418: Red Altar, Eye of the Lord God

The sun was slanting down, sparkling on Lake Patzcuaro. The majestic Chin Tsung City stands by the lake, and the brand-new Sunway University symbolizes a bright future.

In the ancient mythology of the Prepeca people, the Patzcuaro lake area is the driving force of the world, and the city of Chin Tson is the center of the world. At this moment, in the words of the divine revelation of the king, and on the shoulders of countless future generations of giants, the exploration of the laws of the world by Central American civilization will be born in a new form, and the light of science will be bred from religious belief!

"I hope that one day, this place will become the birthplace of modern science in the entire human world!"

With a smile on his face, Shulot looked at the young apprentices under the altar, his face was full of expectation, and he thought silently in his heart. Most of these apprentice priests are fifteen or sixteen years old. Their minds are active and they are not bound by traditional ideas, their concept of the world has not yet formed, and it is far easier to shape than adult priests...

The king pondered for a moment, and announced loudly.

"My students! Whether you understand it or not, listen to my teachings patiently and learn the mysteries of the gods! When you pass out from here, you will be my students, my disciples!"

Hearing the king's words, hundreds of apprentices collectively lost their voices for a moment, and then burst into excited cheers. The cheers echoed enthusiastically in the university, like the rolling thunder before the spring rain.

Xiu Luote was full of joy, looking at the enthusiastic young faces, and felt the sense of belonging as the principal. The newborn seedlings need to be cared for and grow up, and the identity of the disciple given to the enlightened one is an effective encouragement and protection.

The god-inspired priest who was in charge of recording walked up to the altar, and respectfully handed out the written instructions, asking the "spiritual enlightener" to review. Shulot took a look and nodded slightly. The "mysteries of the gods" in the seven records are unfolded in sequence, laying the foundation of natural science. These "mysteries of the gods" seem mysterious and difficult, but if they are spoken in the language of later generations, they will be concise and straightforward.

First, matter consists of particles. Particles are subdivided into molecules, atoms and smaller elementary particles.

Second, different atoms form molecules in different ways, which determine the physical and chemical properties of substances.

The third is that energy is transferred between substances, causing the substances to move and change. And when the molecular structure is changed by energy, the physical and chemical properties of the substance will also change.

Fourth, energy is released in the form of heat, following the second law of thermodynamics, spontaneously flowing from a high-temperature heat source to a low-temperature heat source.

Article 5, the definition of force, the effect of changing the speed of an object or deforming an object.

Sixth, the three laws of motion. Law of inertia, law of acceleration, law of action and reaction.

Seventh, the composition of life is cells.

Of course, these few "divine mysteries" are far from enough to truly lay the foundation of natural science. Schlott has an ambitious plan to gradually transform the laws of physics, chemistry and biology learned throughout the compulsory education stage into a language that can be accepted by the times. Then, as it is today, taught to apprentices at the university, as scientific enlightenment.

The process of scientific enlightenment can be long, lasting many years. The initial students may not be able to really understand it, they will only memorize it as a hadith. But the significance of this kind of teaching is beyond doubt, and the sense of accomplishment it brings is incomparable!

"I am changing the world for the better!"

The king nodded with a smile, and handed over the recorded instructions to Bravo.

"Bravo, engrave what I said today on the stone wall, so that all apprentices can ponder it over and over again."

"Follow your decree, Master Suzerain!"

Bravo bowed his head respectfully. After receiving the instruction, he saw that "everything in the world is composed of the particles of God", and after thinking for a while, fear arose in his heart.

"Master Patriarch..."

"Um?"

"While recording your instructions, can you make some additions?"

Bravo on the altar lowered his voice and cautiously advised.

"Everything in the world is made up of God's particles... Are the noble descendants of the gods and the humble slaves the same in origin?"

Hearing this, Shulot raised his brows, knowing it in his heart. He glanced at the restless Bravo lightly, and asked.

"How do you want to change?"

"Can you add a sentence later, the **** grains that make up the descendants of the gods were endowed with divinity by the Lord God himself, so they have a noble status and are above everyone..."

The king pondered for a long time. No matter what his precepts are, they must be interpreted by the people of the times according to the wishes of the times. If these enlightened scientific teachings are to be propagated within the religious system, they must add some footnotes suitable for the times.

"Yes! Don't change what I said. Leave it behind alone, and attach scripture notes!"

"Follow you! Great Enlightenment!"

Bravo saluted solemnly and breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he can write notes, he can find a way to deal with it in front of the traditional high priest. Otherwise, with so many astonishing "precepts" engraved, his position as vice principal will come to an end. The alliance's priests and elders have always been conservative. They can't do anything to the king, can't they sacrifice him, a little third-level priest?

Thinking of this, Bravo hesitated for a while, and then warned again.

"Dear Suzerain, when you go to the capital in the lake, it is best not to mention these instructions..."

Shulot stared at Bravo calmly for a moment, nodded and smiled.

"Bravo, I understand what you mean. Don't worry about me, and don't worry about yourself. As long as you manage the university well, one day, you will have a place in the highest group of priests and elders!"

"Ah! Obey your decree! I will follow in your footsteps to the ends of the world!"

Bravo suppressed the excitement in his heart, and bowed solemnly to the ground. Then, he got up and stepped back, leaving the center of the altar to the king alone.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

A red firework blooms in the sky and makes a strange sound! The cheers under the altar gradually subsided, and the apprentices looked up to the stage, returning to silence.

Xiulot put down the diabolo pipe in his hand, organized his thoughts, and preached loudly again.

"My students, look up and look to the sky! What do you see?"

"Strange red fireworks..."

Several apprentice priests summoned up their courage and said softly.

Xiulot can hear very well. He looked at the few people who were talking, and nodded with a smile.

"Yes! These red fireworks are fire and light, and they are the power of God! The divine energy burned by the gunpowder changes the state of the divine particles. The divine energy is transmitted in the added divine particles, and the divine particles absorb the divine energy and emit it again. Different **** particles will release red, yellow, blue, green...different colors of light according to their own characteristics!...As long as the fixed **** particles are burned, fixed **** light will be released! … "

The king organized the discourse, describing that in the atom, electrons absorb energy and jump to an unstable state when they are heated, and then release photons with a fixed frequency to return to the ground state. This process is to identify the flame reaction of different elements.

In the crowd, Elaine blinked. She was a little confused and a little strange.

"Burning fixed **** grains, releasing fixed **** light... Could it be that priests can artificially create all kinds of strange lights without communicating with gods?"

On the altar, Bravo lowered his head, his body trembling slightly. Hearing the king's narration, he was sweating all over. The blue flame is a standard equipment for priests in the Lake District, and it is used to "communicate with the kingdom of the dead".

"The sun in spring is so hot!...Let me think, let me think carefully, how to interpret the precepts..."

Xiulot looked at the many apprentices and patiently explained.

"God grains constitute all things in the world, and the types of all things are different, so the types of **** grains are naturally different. Metals and stones, flowing water and air, earth and sky...they contain different types and combinations of **** grains...and The most essential difference of the **** grains lies in the core! The **** grains are too small to touch. According to the color of the burning light, we can see the core of the **** grains through the numerous appearances, so as to identify their types !..."

Listen, listen, Elaine's eyes are already full of "??". She tried her best to listen for a while, and then decisively chose to give up. The girl's sight gradually shifted, and finally stopped on the red altar.

There, the god-inspired priests and craftsmen were already busy. A strange ball with a diameter of several meters gradually swelled up, and then was fixed by ropes, floating above the altar.

The ball seemed to be made of bark paper, a special product of the kingdom, with a terrifying red eye engraved on its surface, like the cold gaze from a god, staring closely at everyone in the field.

The brave Tekos girl shuddered. She lowered her head slightly, guessing the power of the gods, not daring to look directly at the mysterious and terrifying ball.

On the yellow altar, Shulot stopped to tell. He looked at the distracted apprentices, smiled, and walked down from the yellow altar to the red altar.

As he approached, the hot air balloon on the altar appeared clearly in front of his eyes. Under the guidance of the king, the craftsmen trial-produced the hot air balloon with tough bark paper, carefully glued the joints with isinglass, and then coated with expensive rubber juice for reinforcement to prevent air leakage.

The surface of the hot air balloon is painted with a huge red eyeball, which is named "The Eye of the Lord God". It has a diameter of six meters and a volume of more than 100 cubic meters. It can be regarded as a small hot air balloon or a large Kongming lantern. Similar to the Kongming Lantern, the bottom of the "Eye of the Lord God" has a simple wooden frame, which is then connected with a rope to fix a light pottery brazier.

There are several kilograms of high-quality charcoal in the brazier, burning blazingly! Fiery flames rise from the brazier, heating the air inside and making the entire hot air balloon inflate. And under the hot air balloon, a light bamboo basket is connected with a rope.

A non-fat turkey clucked, its wings and feet were tied, and it was stuffed into a small but tough bamboo basket. The turkey didn't know at the moment that it would become the first land creature to fly high in the sky in a hot air balloon. It just struggled repeatedly uncomfortably, raising pieces of chicken feathers, and shaking the hot air balloon above.

The inflated hot air balloon was suspended in mid-air, restrained by the ropes tied by the priests, and could only shake and undulate helplessly, like a huge animal with life, and let out a shocking breath.

Seeing this scene, Xiulot nodded in satisfaction. For the Kingdom of the Lake, the front-end technology for making small hot air balloons is already mature. The production of hot air balloons is carried out in the name of offering sacrifices to gods. More than a dozen outstanding craftsmen work hard, trying their best to make every detail the best, and the manpower and material resources are also sufficient. Compared with the explorers of the Old World, he also has rubber unique to the Americas, which is used for sealing and reinforcement.

The apprentice priests looked at the huge "Eye of the Lord God" floating in the sky, and expressed their uncontrollable awe and wonder. Under the reverent eyes of everyone, the king walked under the hot air balloon. He raised his hand, touched the rubber coating on the bottom of the hot air balloon, looked at the thin brazier that radiated heat, and checked the fixed frame. Then, the king raised his head and silently stared at the huge sky creation.

The production of "The Eye of the Lord God" has been carefully calculated by Xiulot.

It is six meters in diameter and has a volume of more than one hundred cubic meters. When a cubic of air is heated from 20 degrees to 80 degrees, the weight will be reduced by 200 grams, providing about 2N of lift. In other words, a hot air balloon with a volume of 5 cubic meters is estimated to be able to carry an object of 2 catties when heated sufficiently. In the whole hot air balloon, more than 100 cubic meters of air is heated, which can carry more than 40 kilograms of objects.

In a hot air balloon, the light pottery brazier is about 4 catties, and the charcoal is about 4 catties, which can burn for more than an hour. Paper balls, frames, ropes, and bamboo baskets together weighed more than 10 catties. Added up, the weight of the hot air balloon itself is slightly more than 20 catties, which can provide half of the lift as a load.

The turkey in the bamboo basket is about 10 catties, and the remaining 10 catties are used to load the hemp rope. Yes, Xiu Luote is not going to release this oversized "Kong Ming Lantern", but is connected with a 200-meter-long hemp rope. After the experiment, he plans to use the rope to pull the hot air balloon down for recovery.

A hemp rope with a thickness of 6 mm is about 1 catties and 10 meters. Roughly calculated, if everything is as expected, the "Eye of the Lord God" will fly to a height of about one or two hundred meters, and then it will be suspended with a rope to stop until the firepower of the charcoal weakens, and then slowly fall.

Shulot stared at it in a daze, yearning and longing for the sky surged in the king's heart. The "God's Eye" in front of you will be the starting point for the entire human civilization to explore the sky!

After a long while, he smiled and asked the priest in charge of the hot air balloon.

"Chimerist, are you all ready?"

Chimel, the second-level divine priest, pursed her lips, trying to maintain a calm face. However, his trembling voice betrayed the inner excitement.

"Dear Patriarch, everything is ready!"

"Okay! The Lord God bless us!"

Shulot nodded solemnly. UU reading www. uukanshu.com He looked at the awe-inspiring apprentices under the altar, and announced loudly.

"Apprentice priests of the Kingdom, my students! Let us witness together, this great and immortal moment! The Lord God establishes the order of the world, and all things follow the principles of nature. You must always keep in mind that as long as you master the mysteries of the gods, even Small mortals can also go to the lofty sky!"

Under the altar, hundreds of apprentices solemnly listened, watched, and looked forward to it. The king smiled faintly and gave the order proudly.

"Chimer, untie the rope and let the Lord God's Eye rise into the sky!"

"Follow you, my god-inspired suzerain priest!"

With trembling fingers, Chimel untied the tied rope. Then, under the watchful eyes of apprentice priests and guard warriors, under countless eyes of shock and awe, the "Eye of the Lord God" finally broke free from all restraints, and raised the turkey in the bamboo basket to the sky of the Kingdom of God. fly!
