Clark noticed that the previously noisy classroom was suddenly reduced to a single sound, with all other faint noises disappearing as if they had never existed.
After sensing his surroundings with his body and finding no danger, Clark continued to organize the memories left behind by this body.
"Earth, also a planet ruled by Homo sapiens, is a better start than its predecessors who unfortunately became animals."
A planet with life is a miracle in itself, and Clark knew this well.
Many sorcerers have had similar experiences to Clark, with the vast majority of souls, along with their memories, struggling to survive for hundreds of years before being annihilated in the vacuum.
"Praise be to magic!" Clark prayed in his heart.
"An era of booming science, the internet, and technology."
"Has mathematics developed to this extent in a world without magic? In many aspects, it is even approaching the most advanced mathematical sciences I know about in the mage society."
"Physics has actually advanced to the particle level? So the collision of two particles can produce such enormous energy. The principle of Lorenza's self-created high-energy explosion magic is, in abstract terms, nothing more than the result of particle collision."
"What a wonderful era."
"The Internet? It's similar to a magic net, but it can only transmit data and not objects. Users can't operate it with their consciousness; they need to use external tools."
A crucial question is: how did they manage to connect billions of devices to the same network? And how did they ensure they could communicate with each other and that information could be accurately transmitted to the intended destination?
“From a topological point of view, it is very simple to connect hundreds of billions of points to each other, but to ensure that information is transmitted accurately without errors is a problem that even mages have not been able to solve.”
"With this research result alone, one can become a god of magic."
The promotion of mages in the Holy Mage Alliance is similar to that of university professors, relying on your original scientific research, which can be either theory or invention.
Clark, now Zheng Li, is adapting to this body while searching his memories. He is amazed by the flashes of wisdom he finds in Earth's society.
It should be noted that the Holy Mage Alliance, to which he previously belonged, controlled several planets, which meant they had one foot in interstellar civilization, though in some aspects they were inferior to Earth.
The lifespan of a monk is at least two hundred years, and the length of life is a positively correlated factor for research.
"It's incredible that humans, whose lifespan is at most a hundred years, could create such a magnificent planet!"
He was satisfied with the overall environment of the Earth, however:
"Compared to the brain, this body is really weak, so fragile that it can't even withstand a fireball."
"The body is the foundation of everything; a weak body cannot support high-intensity work."
"The place we are in now is called a university in their language. Universities have professors who teach classes, and everyone can choose to attend courses that interest them."
"The tuition is so low! Has knowledge become so cheap here?"
Zheng Li was incredibly surprised to discover that he could attend courses like "Topology," "Complex Functions," and "Abstract Algebra" at what was called a university in this world for just the cost of a few meals.
In the eyes of mages, knowledge is expensive; only by paying a sufficient price can one acquire knowledge from other sources. There's a question-and-answer section on the magic network, but everyone only provides partial answers; to hear the complete explanation, you need to spend magic stones to purchase it.
Moreover, sometimes other people's answers cannot solve your problem, and the magic stones are wasted.
Now in university, you can ask professors any questions you have, and they will answer them for you, at the cost of only a negligible tuition fee.
Zheng Li felt a sense of unreality: "Is it because of the openness to sharing knowledge that science in this world has been able to develop so rapidly?"
"Perhaps Barthes was right: knowledge can only be fully realized through sharing."
After becoming familiar with the body, Zheng Lixiang wanted to explore whether magic could still be used. He used his consciousness to explore the body: "Without organs to invoke magic, the consciousness of this body cannot interfere with reality."
The ability of consciousness to interfere with reality is the fundamental principle behind a sorcerer's spellcasting.
Zheng Li tried a few level 0 spells and found that the spells failed to be cast, and he couldn't even make a ripple in the real world. "It's really not used to not being able to use magic."
"Without magic, this body probably won't be able to work for very long before it needs to rest."
"Oh, Earth also has the concept of magic, but is this magic just child's play?" He flipped through Zheng Li's memory to find "Harry Potter".
"Does Earth have no magic, or is it like in Harry Potter, where wizards use various methods to conceal their true nature?"
"However, their understanding of magic seems to be different from my understanding of magic."
After believing he had gained a basic understanding of the world, Zheng Li got up and walked out of the classroom, saying, "The most urgent task is to acquire more information."
My body has just undergone a core replacement and is not suitable for strenuous exercise; otherwise, the first thing I would do would definitely be to optimize my physical body.
Li Miaomiao looked at Zheng Li with a blank expression as he stood up: "Zheng Li, we're still in class, what are you doing?"
Keep in mind that they were sitting in the middle of the classroom. Zheng Li stood up directly from the middle of the classroom and walked through a circle of students, and everyone stared at him.
Seeing that she hadn't called out to Zheng Li, who was already almost at the podium and the teacher had stopped and was looking at him, Li Miaomiao quickly threw her things into her bag and chased after him.
"Teacher, I'm sorry, he's not feeling well today. I'll take him to the infirmary."
Li Miaomiao jogged slowly, while on the other side she gave the professor an awkward yet polite smile as she explained.
The middle-aged professor thought of the boy who had suddenly gone out, his forehead covered in sweat and his face pale. "Go ahead, be careful, and tell your boyfriend to be more polite next time."
Li Miaomiao was embarrassed to explain that they were not in a romantic relationship: "I'm sorry, teacher."
Once outside the classroom, she caught up with Zheng Li in a few strides: "What's wrong with you today?"
Are you feeling unwell?
Are you going back to your dorm now?
"I'll take you back."
"You guys are in the lakeside area, right? The dorms for the School of Mathematics seem to be in the lakeside area too. We're in the lakeside area as well."
"The food at the lakeside cafeteria is really bad."
Zheng Li knew from his previous memories that his relationship with the human woman beside him was closer than friends, but far from being boyfriend and girlfriend: "The library."
Li Miaomiao: "Are you rushing to finish your homework?"
“We can just find an empty classroom in Teaching Building 5; there’s no need to go all the way to the library.”
"It's almost eight o'clock now, there are definitely no seats left in the library."
"Going to the library of the Ministry of Information Science and Technology or the Faculty of Engineering at this time is too far. How about going to the old library? But the old library might not be open."
"By the way, Old Tu is right next to the building in your math department. Have you been there?"
Zheng Li felt that the other person was chirping incessantly like a quacking bird. "I want to go read a book, can you be quiet for a bit?"
