Chapter 60 - The First Bomb Theory
Chapter 60 - The First Bomb Theory
/// Guys this is gonna be an intellectually stimulating chapter , if you are not into nerdy stuff this is not for you .... However if you are a science student like me , it will exite you ... I have seen the response on this novel and having faith in my readers intelligence i write this chapter. ///
Rudra was deeply engrossed in understanding the theory behind chemical bombs. And the more he read about the basics of alchemy and elements and mana the more he understood that this was not a new concept .... It was like chemistry from the real world only it had its own tweaks.
The AI governing the game was allmighty , making endless possibilities come to fruition , with something such as permutations and combinations thousands of compounds could be made by the AI . However those compounds still needed behavior to define them .... The AI can only take that part from reality.
The juice of blueheartgrass may have strong corroding properties that can melt steel ... However if seen through a different perspective that is just concentrated hydrochloric acid.
There is the three leaf lotus herb , it is a strong aphrodisiac having numbing effects used in medical procedures .... But isnt that just Marijuana? Soo what if it is pink ? ... Or called a lotus?
The more Rudra thought along this line. The clearer his vision became , there was petroleum , refined into petrol , diesel , kerosene . They were just simply called stuff like grade 1 oil , grade 2 oil , grade 3 oil etc. These were grades of oil used in shipyards depending on how far the beam was to be sent .
All these discoveries exited Rudra , the created world of 'Omega' was mind-boggling and awe inspiring , however somewhere there is a border to the fantasy and somewhere the line to reality blurs. There was a limit to how much you can create with your mind. You cannot create something out of nothing.
Rudra started to reverse engineer now, he was thinking about the most basic explosion he know about. Sodium and water ....when sodium comes in contact with water it quickly reacts violently going crazy over the water surface and releasing immense heat..... Water was still water , even in this world ..... However what was sodium? Rudra browsed through the books and found the peculiar metal called Watersbane ... It was known to combust upon contact with water.
Now the only thing was , how to contain the explosion, how to make it activate upon infusing mana???
Firstly Rudra had to figure out what is the role of mana in this world. Mana was this worlds concept, Reality did not have mana and magic .... What is mana really? The more Rudra thought about it , the more he felt .... Mana was just a form of energy.
Mana is energy .... The same energy used to move our body .... Like the fat is stored in our muscles , mana is stored in the sea of consciousness . Upon training it you can increase the capacity of the container and gain access to a more rich quality of mana , but mana at the core was just a form of energy.
But if mana is just a energy does the law of conservation of energy also apply to mana?
If knights can convert stamina to mana , does that mean that energy's can be interconvertible? Just like heat energy can become light energy and chemical energy can become electrical energy, can mana be converted to stamina?
As he hit the state of enlightenment , he realized something .... What all alchemists and potionmasters aldready did but never understood , this world was also based on science.... Every calculation made by the AI is done on a complex calculation of numbers, everything had a order and origin.
There were no basic health potions or recipes , it was a law of equivalent exchange. Rudra could destabilize any element with enough energy and make it explode ..... Explosion was an art and Although there were no methods to follow as such ... Everything in this world , can be exploded!
Rudra could make the watersbane , supercharged with mana before allowing it to come in contact with water using a mechanism ..... He needed a few trial and errors but he thought , he could make a simple bomb!
Rudra was completely elated with today's thinking session, the crown prince had long since left .... Maybe the quiet of the library helped his train of thoughts as he thought that he gained a deeper understanding of the game in the 3 hours he spent here more so than the 20 simply spent playing it.
Grasping at the core rules itself , Rudra felt a indescribable joy , and he wanted to explore his heart out making all kinds of things go BOOM! he felt like a scientist , exited for his experiments .
Quickly ordering a large batch of watersbane metal , Rudra walked out of the library and towards the guild. For a moment here Rudra completely forgot about the looming war. He was just a player enjoying the game today.
What he did not know was that his intresting line of thinking was not wrong ..... However it was not right either..... What he thought about was a very limited sample space , where his line of thought was applicable . After players progress to tier3 and common realms of humans be surpassed , even the basics would change .
The divine metals wont behave like common elements, whereas mana will defy laws of equilibrium . With tier5 and 6 being akin to gods on whom no laws apply at all .
Rudra was a frog in a well , although radical in his thoughts but naiive to a fault. His conceptions would change throughout his journey and soo will his art of explosion .... Learning from the basic steps of crawling , he will oneday learn to walk , then run and finally maybe someday he will grow wings and take flight. One thing was for sure though , the journey will be hella intresting.
