Your notoriety is known to everyone

Chapter 36 A mentor is also an apprentice
"Everyone seems to be looking at us now..."

Luo Gesi noticed something strange in the classroom and did not continue to talk back to Alina. Instead, after reminding her in a low voice, he slowly returned to his sitting posture calmly.

He straightened his back, opened the "Comprehensive Basics of Magic" on the table in front of him, and looked at the podium intently, as if he was ready to listen carefully.

Alina tucks the hair from her forehead behind her ears, and follows the example of sitting upright.

However, the complete silence between the two of them did not change the atmosphere of the classroom, but made the scene even more silent.

If nothing else, something must have happened now.

With this thought in mind, Rogers pushed the monocle he wore on his left eye gently, and after inputting his magic power, he quickly retrieved all the memories just now.

The ability of the monocle is a comprehensive retrospective memory. As long as you have seen or heard something, even if you ignore the things at that time in the memory, the monocle can present it again without missing a beat.

Within a moment, Rogers figured out why the current situation was like this.

He stood up with his hands on the table, and first apologized slightly to Yalanna: "I'm very sorry, Professor Yalanna, I didn't hear your roll call clearly just now, and I just realized it now."

Alanna could easily learn the power of the monocle, so she chuckled and said she wouldn't care.

But more students just felt that since Luo Gesi knew that he had been named, he actually dared to be so confident.

What makes them even more confused is why Professor Alanna can remain gentle when facing such an undisciplined guy and not deduct the credits of this arrogant person.

"To be honest, my knowledge of magic is still very shallow, and I don't have any feelings or understanding at all.

"On the contrary, I have many questions that bother me and I want to get answers from the professor."

As Rogers spoke next, the atmosphere became even weirder.

More than [-]% of the students in the classroom had watched the duel between Logos and Caspar.

If the astonishing magical talents and abilities that Logos showed at that time were all called to be shallow, then do they still have any need to answer?

Yalanna nodded happily after hearing this. The more people you know, the more shallow you will feel. This is a normal thing.

After receiving the professor's permission, Rogers continued to ask his question:
"For us magic apprentices, we cannot use magic smoothly without chanting magic spells, so how to use magic spells better will be the most basic and important knowledge we need to learn.

"There are two great magicians in "The Basics of Magic" who have completely different opinions on this.

"One person believes that one needs to get closer to the intonation and pronunciation of the spell words to figure out the essence of the spell, so that one can perfectly control magic.

"Another person believes that spell words are only auxiliary things, and our focus needs to be on how to better understand the elements corresponding to the spell so that we can be more comfortable.

"In this regard, I couldn't help but have a question. In the knowledge system of magic, which one is the most important, language or thinking? Which one needs our most concern?"

Yalanna looked surprised when she heard this. She put her hands on the podium, tapped her fingers on the table, and began to think seriously about this issue.

Learning magic definitely requires a combination of understanding of the language of mysticism and knowledge of the elements. After all, language is the bridge, and thinking is the cornerstone.

Both of them are indispensable, but there are also many schools of magic that have a lot of disputes over which of the two is more important.

Moreover, the time that people have is destined to be limited. Only those with rare talents can study and advance these two learning directions at the same time. For most people, focusing on one is the right way.

But this question can only be understood and considered by those who have truly embarked on the path of magic after they have fully mastered the basics of magic. Yalanna did not expect that Luo Gesi would become concerned at this time. "I know you don't want to hear me say that both are equally important, or classify this as a vague question like whether the bird hatched the egg first, or the egg hatched first.

“But I really can’t say for sure which one is the first.

"I can only say that I think thinking determines language, and language is the expression tool of thinking. The existence of mystical language is only to allow us to better communicate and condense elements to achieve the form we visualize.

"So I am more inclined to the second great magician's school of thought."

Yalanna stopped tapping her fingers on the table. She considered her words and spoke slowly and clearly and forcefully.

But when she saw the disappointment on Luo Gesi's face, she felt a little nervous for no reason, as if she was the student being questioned by the instructor.

Rogers pinched his eyebrows. He originally wanted to use "native language negative transfer" to reply to Alanna's concept, but he felt that the other party might not understand him well, so he planned to use "Sapir-Wolf" "Hypothesis" gave an example and began to elaborate in long paragraphs:

"Professor Yalanna, please allow me to propose these hypothetical experiments to you..."

Yalanna stared at Luo Gesi, her eyebrows slightly frowned, and her expression became more solemn.

Every time Rogers demonstrated something, her ideas collapsed, and she even began to wonder whether the path she had been pursuing for many years was actually a wrong path.

"Then what do you think of this matter? Do you have any conclusion?" Yalanna couldn't suppress her emotions and couldn't help but speak out.

"It was because I didn't know what to think about it that I asked the professor." Rogers responded with a shrug.

In his previous life, the academic debate about language and thinking lasted for an unknown number of years, but it never produced a decisive result. He just wanted to know what the top scholars from another world would think.

It's a pity that Yalanna's answer did not satisfy him at all, and even felt a little boring.

"Although I have no conclusion, I have more or less had some related thoughts. For example, we can directly establish a research discipline on language..."

Logos then elaborated on the relevant foundations of linguistics created by Saussure in the 19th century.

In this world, there is no lack of research on etymology, syntax, morphology, dialects, language changes, etc., but there has never been a systematic and established system.

You must know that the study of language in past lives has gradually become one of the most influential disciplines in the 20th century since the ancient slave girl took over and established "linguistics".

It has had an extremely important foundational influence on anthropology, sociology, psychology, artificial intelligence and other disciplines, regardless of arts and sciences.

And Yalanna also felt very clearly how important this knowledge system was to casting spells.

When encountering unclear concepts, Alanna would ask for a few explanations from time to time, with an attitude like that of an apprentice.

Time passed slowly as the two of them continued their questions and explanations, and the students in the classroom had no idea what exactly Luo Gesi was talking about that could make Professor Alanna take it so seriously.

They went from initial confusion, to surprise, to thinking, and finally to helplessness and confusion.

It was not until the end of get out of class that Professor Alanna told them that they could now move around as they pleased, and immediately disappeared in a hurry, not knowing what they were doing.

　I would like to know what everyone thinks about this chapter. If you feel that this kind of knowledge narrative is boring, you can tell me that I will polish this type of plot writing in the future.

　　[Additional: To be honest, writing this chapter is much more tiring than writing daily chapters. If the tone is polite, I will listen carefully. If there is content, even if it is weird and humiliating, I will not feel anything, but will be grateful.But if it’s just a disgusting person with no clear meaning, I might just delete it.Thanks. 】
