"What is magic?" Aleister asked.

"From my current experience, it should be the interaction with the spirit of the world." Bai Hedao.

"Where does the spirit of the world come from?" The outside of the room is the balcony on the second floor of the villa. The church that besieged this place not long ago seems to have no idea that when they stood at the door of the villa, they were only less than the true distance from this greatest heresy. ten meters.

Aleister leaned on the balcony, looking at the empty plain under her feet, and the stars in the sky, and finally set her eyes on her hands, as if to say to herself: "I have researched the sources of all magic in the world, I have also personally summoned gods and demons, if there is consciousness in the world, then from these extraordinary things, it should be able to find something."

"I didn't find it?" Bai He was a little surprised, he could naturally understand what Aleister was looking for.

However, he was not too surprised. Those who study magic deal with the "spirit" that exists objectively, and in the end, it is inevitable to find the "absolute spirit". This is the inevitable development of idealism to a certain extent.

This is not something that can be explained by science. If the magic thing really exists in a certain world, the rules derived from it will inevitably give birth to such a thing.

This Aleister is looking for the real 'God'.

It's not the real God who is close to the Godhead and has power and can be contacted.

It is the untouchable, omnipresent, omniscient, all-determining being.

"Yeah, I didn't find it." Aleister sighed in frustration: "The more I study magic, the more confused I am about a question. 'They' were originally recorded in various legends and magic books; but I still can't Determine whether humans saw them, or humans invented them.

So many myths, so, the power of magic tells us that they are real, but using magic, it is impossible to go beyond their 'existence' to find their source in any way. "

"This is the upper limit of magic." He murmured: "It can't explain this contradiction, and it can't reveal the real existence of 'It', and the 'God' I summoned is not the God I want to see. ."

"If magic is just an illusion produced by human civilization and consciousness under the guidance of 'it'." Aleister shook his head: "If you want to find that omniscient and omnipotent existence through magic, most of the things you will find in the end are illusions, even if some The real thing is hidden in it, and we who live in the illusion cannot recognize it.”

"So you have to find another way."

"Yes." Aleister nodded.

"Have you found it?" Bai He lit another pot of cigarettes and puffed up.

Aleister shook his head, nodded again, looked at the mushroom cloud frozen on the holographic screen, and remained silent.

"You know this thing?"

"About a year ago, I heard about this hypothesis in an open physics class, in Cambridge."

"You actually go to Cambridge for a physics class?" Bai He said in surprise.

"Yes, I have been incognito at Cambridge Medical School for the past five years. In order to confuse the public, I also published a nonsense tarot instruction manual in the United States." Aleister smiled bitterly: "If Without being suddenly discovered by necessary evil, I should be defending my doctoral dissertation at this time.”

"Then should I call you Dr. Crowley?" Bai He turned off the projector: "Please don't worry too much, it was an accident that this thing appeared in this world, and of course my appearance was also an accident."

"Then why did you appear here by accident?" Aleister turned around and asked bluntly: "God or demon? Or some indescribable supernatural being? I have been to angels and demons. world, you don't look like a resident of these places."

"You can think of it as a traveler who is lost on the road of life, thinking about the same problem as you." Bai He smiled, invisible pressure collided in the air, he looked at this "supposedly" who abandoned magic but was always on guard The person in the middle who is ready to unleash all his power: "So you chose science?"

"No." Aleister shook his head seriously: "Compared to magic, 'science' may also be an illusion."

"You don't even believe in science?" Bai He looked strange.

"It's just that science looks the least like an illusion compared to those myths and legends. As for whether it can help me achieve my goal, I don't know." Aleister closed his eyes: "I'm being hunted by the Puritans. I was still confused by it the morning before."

This is also an Aleister lost on the path of life.

Bai He wanted to laugh secretly, but he couldn't.

He looked at this guy, and finally managed to suppress the irritating thoughts in his head: "As you can see, I am also busy, I am not going to do anything about this world, that nuclear bomb happened because of your appearance. Accidentally, if your injury is no longer serious, you can decide for yourself what to do next."

"I still want to thank you for your help. I will keep this kindness in my heart, but I must remind you." Aleister raised a finger: "When the atomic bomb exploded, you have become the focus of this world. , You may not know the current situation in this world, but I can say with certainty that ordinary people, scientists, the army, or people on the magic side are all looking for you now, and even the priority is far above me."

"It seems that I have a good grasp of hatred, but without you here, can they really find me?" Baihe glanced at the big tooth marks on Aleister's legs.

"It looks like I'm hurting you." Aleister looked at the "Mark of Garm" on her leg and smiled bitterly: "Well, it's really time for me to leave."

"Wait a minute, would you mind telling me about your plan?" Bai He asked suddenly.

"According to the original plan, I should go to Germany to visit a person. In this world, this person may be the only person who can give me some useful inspiration." Aleister glanced at Baihe and seemed to have a whim: "You said you have Similar to mine, if you're not afraid to take a little risk, maybe you can go to him for inspiration."

"Hmm? Who are you looking for?"

"The wisest Puritan in three centuries, the last true saint," said Aleister Crowley, a look of admiration on her face.

"The Puritans are chasing you all over the world. You are actually going to visit this person who has a lot to do with Puritanism. It seems that you are not afraid of death for the truth."

"The Puritans do not necessarily belong to Puritanism. Although this 'saint' is not classified as a heretic, he is a 'person forbidden to touch' jointly determined by the church and the magic side." Aleister said: "Any magician or As long as a believer has the idea of ​​seeing this person, he will be judged as a heretic."

"It sounds more confusing." Bai He shook his head: "That's why you were chased and chopped down?"

"As a representative of the magic side, to actually want to visit this person is the greatest blasphemy in itself." Aleister laughed at himself: "All the magicians who have visited this person in the past century have nothing to do with it. All betrayed the Society and the Church without exception."

"This...the church would allow such a big source of spiritual pollution to live? It still calls him a saint?" Bai He's thoughts were a little bit difficult to turn around: "Is it my brain or the collective wisdom of the magicians in this world?"

"Of course he's a saint. He saved the church when it was at its most dangerous. You have his writings in those books by your bed, but the church has a love-hate attitude towards this book." Ares Tower looked at the stack of philosophy books on the head of Baihe's bed.

Putting down the most cutting-edge magic research, Baihe's current house dragons are mostly studying these things in addition to molesting various female creatures. In any world, the biggest group of people with open brains, except for the neuropathy, is the philosopher.

Through the views of these brain-hole people on the world, Baihe can sometimes get all kinds of magical inspirations, which also makes him deeply reflect on his spirit of secondary school.

The result is to become more of a secondary.

"He left a space for God, but he believed that human beings could not prove its existence; he used scientific research to prove the formation of the solar system, but he was a devout believer. He believed that knowledge came from himself, but he believed that the end of the world is The paradox between the finite and the infinite. He is a scientist and an ethicist..."

Aleister said in a tone of sigh and praise: "He rebuilt the whole world with the will of 'self'. At that time, he was the closest person to the gods in the world."

"Wait." Bai He raised his hand: "If I remember correctly, you said that this gentleman should have been dead for one hundred and forty years."

"It's just that he hasn't appeared in the world for 140 years. It doesn't mean death, or that he still exists."

Aleister sighed, and his expression returned to normal from his trance: "I'm going to visit him, I want to know, after observing this world for two centuries, his mind has been closed by the church and almost all magicians. ', can you give me an answer."

"Interesting, let's listen to this idea." Baihe put down his pipe, and an interested smile appeared on his face: "It happens that I also have some questions that I want to talk to a truly wise person, where does he live? Konigsberg? ?"

"Also or not~lightnovelpub.net~ Aleister shook his head: "His residence is at the intersection of night and white, on the edge of the world of man and the gods, in the radiance and darkness of heaven, he is The only light in the sky. "

"Tsk~ Nasty." Bai He sneered: "I'm sure this propaganda word is not his own."

"It's a metaphor left by a betrayal, maybe we can find his abode based on this short poem."

Bai He was surprised and said, "You went to him without even finding out the way?"

"Many times you have to find the path of betrayal yourself. 'Falling' is not about falling if you want to fall, let alone finding the truth?" Aleister chuckled, tied her belt, and covered it with a long trench coat. He had a short body and put on a huge hood.

Bai He looked at this guy's wriggling demeanor as he walked, and felt that it was not without reason that this **** Shou turned into a **** Shou in the end, but after thinking about it in his mind, he suddenly realized that this guy had a The guy with the tender face is almost seventy years old.

This guy is not only a base, but also an immortal old man who pretends to be young.
