The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v2 Chapter 804: Astronomical Heritage

Latest website: At first, Aaliyah didn't know what was wrong with Professor Hubble. After careful observation, she discovered that he seemed vaguely uneasy.

"...But to be honest, I'm still not sure whether I should call it an 'instrument.'" Hubble said. "Rather than an instrument, it might be more appropriate to call it an 'ancient relic."

"Ancient relics?" Catherine was a little curious.

"Yes, ancient relics." Hubble took a deep breath from his pipe, and the smoke he exhaled made his voice a little muffled. "Nowadays, the astronomy of New Zealand and Europe is at the forefront of the world, but more than six hundred years ago, The real center of astronomy is the Middle East."

Moonlight had read relevant books, and he agreed: "That's true. Around the 13th century was the golden age of Arab astronomy. Compared with the astrologers in Europe at the same time, the Arab stargazers were more like orthodox astronomers. —They did not try to appease the king by divination of the stars, but tried to summarize the movement of celestial bodies through observation and mathematics...

"They inherited Ptolemy's observations and inferences, and based on the Almagest, they achieved many incredible astronomical results without any optical instruments."

Hubble looked at the moonlight with some admiration. Arthur introduced him. The astronomer agreed: "My pianist friend, you are right. Now when I read the ancient books left by the Arabs, I still feel very shocked. .

"In the 13th century, the Persian astronomer Tusi, with the support of Hulagu Khan, led the construction of the Maragheh Observatory. Because it had the best astronomical observation conditions in Asia at the time, Maragheh attracted many outstanding astronomers Arrival. Of course, some inventors brought all kinds of weird astronomical observation equipment they made..."

"In 1263 AD, a sorcerer named Akarson Braham brought an instrument and successfully used it to predict the arrival of an unexpected comet, which caused an uproar at the Malagai Observatory and even throughout Persia. …

"With the death of Hulagu Khan, the Malagai Observatory was abandoned and gradually buried in the dust of history. The whereabouts of the instrument made by the warlock was unknown, and was later found in a basement by New Zealand explorers. Because Some of its properties are unmatched by many astronomical instruments today, so it was included in the Mount Wilson Observatory and kept in the basement..."

Although he gave a detailed explanation, Professor Hubble's expression was uncertain and he took no action, as if he didn't want to take out the thing at all.

About half an hour later, the group had moved to the astronomical observation hall, and two staff members pushed a huge thing in from the door. It has a spherical outline, covered with a thick gray cloth, is as tall as an adult, and moves on six wheels installed below...

What kind of instrument is this? Why did Professor Hubble look like that? Aaliyah and others were puzzled and could only watch quietly.

The hemispherical dome cover of the Astronomical Observation Hall has been opened, revealing the night sky glittering with countless stars. The staff placed the instrument at the center of the observatory, and the older one turned to look at Professor Hubble. The professor nodded, and the two staff members looked at each other and quickly lifted off the gray cloth. The strange thing is that the two people moved away from each other after lifting the gray cloth, as if there was a lion hidden under the cloth.

Aaliyah couldn't help but take a few steps closer curiously. The main body of the thing is a huge glass ball. The inside of the glass ball is opaque. I don't know whether it is due to too many impurities or being filled with smoke, which makes it appear chaotic gray.

The middle of the glass ball seems to be empty, and the inner wall is covered with strange patterns and words. The glass ball seems to be placed in a four-ring armillary sphere. There is already a thin layer of patina on the armillary sphere's circular track, and the scales on it can be vaguely seen.

The chaotic glass ball and the armillary sphere with precise scales... This thing seems to be an instrument made by precision alchemy technology and relies on mysterious power. What is incredible is that its birth was two hundred years earlier than the rise of precision alchemy. Arya is not a mysterious historian, but she is certain that this strange thing is related to the man named Yakarson Brahan.

The warlock must be inextricably linked with the later precision alchemy... read Shula

The key is, how does this thing work? While thinking, the bluebird unknowingly approached the big glass ball.

"Don't come close, Aaliyah." Arthur's cold voice sounded, making Aaliya come back to her senses and stop. Almost at the same time as Arthur reminded him, what happened inside the glass ball made almost everyone take a step back in shock, and Aaliyah was even more shocked...

A hand suddenly stretched out from the gray mist of the large glass ball, and a huge black palm pressed against the inside of the glass ball. Both the physiological structure and the strange palm prints on it showed that the things inside were very different from humans.

It seemed that he had left the dark basement, and the thing in the glass bottle became active. It poked its head out from the gray mist, with scarlet eyes looking out **** a black face.

Aaliyah took a few steps back and covered her mouth and chest. The glass ball is actually a glass bottle, and a black devil is enclosed in the glass bottle.

"That's an astrological devil over there..." Hubble weakly pointed at the thing. He obviously hated that thing, not only because of the resident in the glass bottle itself, but also because the thing seemed to be a crazy mockery of modern science. Unable to continue his introduction, he had no choice but to look at the mysterious detective next to him for help.

Arthur continued: "It should be related to the names carved on the pillars by King Solomon. However, over the years, it has been unable to determine its more precise origin. I only know that when Akarson Braham discovered it, it Already in that glass bottle.

"By the way, the widely circulated story of the fisherman and the devil is related to Braham's experience..."

The thing in the bottle seemed to see the surrounding situation clearly. It used its red eyes to look at the people around it with interest, and a disturbing smile appeared on its face from time to time...

"Can it locate Sean?" Catherine asked. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

"That's right. Although it has been imprisoned in a glass bottle for thousands of years, it has astrological knowledge that is unimaginable to humans. Moreover, it is sensitive to everything in the solar system. It can sense the system without using any observation methods. Everything..."

"This is really, really incredible." Moonlight looked at the things in the bottle with disbelief. It curled up and sat quietly, as if being locked in that small space was not such a terrible thing to him. His eyes stopped on Aaliyah, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking from his scarlet eyes.

"The astrological devil's spirit can swim in the etheric sea, and can jump back and forth between space and the abyss... Although its physical body was placed in this narrow space by an unknown person, its freedom is unimaginable by humans...

"It can experience the starry sky. Maybe when it travels, it looks at us as if we are in a bottle." Arthur murmured.

The black thing seemed to have thought of something, and began to write something on the inside of the glass bottle with its long nails... Mobile phone users please browse and read, it is more convenient to read on the palm of your hand.
