Vol 6 Chapter 10: Deonian Academy

Davers said faintly: "Marji, there is an old saying in the East, don't you know that you have heard of it?"
"What old saying?"
"If God wants to perish, he must make it crazy first."
Nick Stratus, Stasis, and Lucasus are standing in front of the door of the Dionysian Academy.
This is a peculiar door, a large white arch, with a huge stone ball on the vault, a thick sword-shaped stone standing straight from the middle of the arch, against the vault, and thus the arch Divided into two.
There is a saying on the stone tablet: Everything runs on its own rules, and its subtlety can only be obtained by unremitting exploration.
Nick Stratus's fine words, can not help but nod and nod, but then down to see the signature - Davers.
"Davis? Which Daves?" Nick Stratus asked in amazement.
"There is still one! Of course, the governor of Dionia!" Stasis answered.
"This is where the scholars gather, the sacred place! What qualifications do he have here!" Nick Stratuston changed color, and he immediately said two sentences.
Stasis was shocked and hurriedly dissuaded him: "You don't want to say that Daves is not just a consul, but he is regarded as a teacher by the doctors of the Republic of Dionia, even those who study mathematics. He is also very respectful to him. It is said that he has received a lot of enlightenment from him, so the people in the whole school respect him very much. And last year I heard the lectures of Daves, the medical knowledge he told is truly unique and It is no wonder that many people say that 'he is the messenger sent by the gods to the world.' If these people hear you insult him, they will definitely conflict with you!"
"I am not afraid of the Dionyrians," Nick Stratus said with a hard mutter, no longer talking, and walked into the gate of the school with Stasipus.
Lycasus has been staring at the dome of the ball, slammed across the gate, and took a few steps, and couldn’t help but look back and said to himself: "So heavy stone ball is placed on top. What do you mean, and I am not afraid that it will fall."
"Little guy, you don't understand this." A young man standing in the door stood aloud and explained: "The ball of the vault symbolizes the land we live in-"
"Wait, you said that the land under our feet is round?!" Lucassus interrupted him in surprise.
"That is of course, otherwise why do you always look at the sails every time you look at the ships sailing in the distance. You know, Thales of Miley was counted many years ago. This question will be with you for a while. The explanation is unclear. You just have to remember that the land we live in is a big ball!
the young man said impatiently, then he pointed at the vault and said,
What do you look at this vault?

Lucasus reminded him, he took a closer look: "Oh, it’s a pair of arms!"
"Yes, holding the ball in both hands means that human beings can transform the earth!" The young man said excitedly: "But what to use to overcome terrible disasters and transform the earth?"
"How do I know?" Lucassus stared at the young man who was pulling himself, not angry.
"See the word carved on the stone tablet!" The sword-shaped stone tablet of the young man’s finger said with enthusiasm: "It depends on knowledge, and it depends on exploration. It depends on those scholars who are constantly studying hard! Dave The door designed by Stuart is really profound!"
Lucassus sneered, dissatisfied with his self-promotion.
The young man apparently did not pay attention to the other side's look, and also took Uncle Luka's hand and said: "Now I tell you why the stone ball does not break the vault and fall down. That is because the arch has the weight to two. "The characteristics of the end dispersion" said that he picked up a branch and painted an exploded view of gravity on the ground: "Of course, the gravity of the stone ball cannot be completely dispersed, and the pressure on the vault still exists, and the support of the stone tablet is the key. "
Poor Lucasus’s explanation of the young people’s profession is like listening to the books of the heavens. It is completely foggy.
Nick Stratus, who had been curious and listened to the side, was completely impatient at the moment, shouting: "Lukassus, it's time to go! It's getting dark, don't miss the registration!"
"Yes!" Lucassus was so scared that he pulled his hand back and almost let the young man fall.
"Register? What is the name?" The young man looked at them with confusion.
"We are here to participate in the medical forum." Stasis answered.
"You are looking for doctors who deal with corpses and bone shelves!" The young man suddenly realized.
"You are going! Go!" He suddenly lost his interest as a teacher. He slaps the hand of Lucassus as if he is afraid of any suffocation.
"This person is sick, mad," Lucasus groaned, followed Stasis.
The park is full of trees and lush greenery. A small paved path is hidden between the trees covered with greenery and the branches.
The three walked in a row, just not far away, and suddenly heard an urgent call: "Be careful, don't step on!"
Staxus hurriedly stopped his foot, only to find a man on the side of the road crouching on the ground, holding a piece of limestone in his hand, and a piece of flatter paving stone in front of him was densely covered with words and symbols.
The man used his body to protect the stone, looked up and gave them a look. The dissatisfied urged: "Go away! Go away!"

These people are estimated to be scholars at the Mathematical Institute in the Dionysian Academy. It is said that most of them are from the Pythagoras school in Tarantum.
Stasis dissatisfied with Nick Stella Tus explained.
It turned out to be this group of madmen! Nick Stratus suddenly realized that the Pythagorean school had "mathematics as a god" and often held some weird rituals, and the traces were secretive. In the early years, they also had close ties with the aristocrats of the great Greek city-states, and opposed democracy. It has been regarded as a heresy by many people and it is not enough to avoid it.
Dionia actually accepted them! Nick Stratus had a disgust in his heart.
When they see it again: Someone leans on the trunk and looks up at the sky, muttering to himself; some people are blind, walking like a puppet, I don’t know what to think; someone is lying on the mud, suddenly jumps up, happy If the madness and many other whimsical manners, the three are no longer strange.
Bypassing a few tall trees, there was a small pavilion in front of it. There were many people in the pavilion forming a circle. What seemed to be placed in the center?
They fiddled with the object while arguing fiercely.
Curious Lucassus approached the kiosk and only heard what they were saying, "How long should the bridge span?"

Which position should I build to ensure the level of the deck?


Do you need a few piers to support this bridge?


How far should they be?

"Are you coming to the medical forum?" A crowd came out of the crowd and looked at the medicine chest of Lucasus's waist and asked.
Before Lucasus answered, Stasis had already bowed and said respectfully: "Hello, Dr. Stacy Codas!"
"You?" Stacy Codas looked at him in confusion, trying to find his name from memory.
"I am Dr. Stasis from Crotone, this is Dr. Nick Stratus and Lucassus, all from Crotone." Stasis introduced it immediately.
"Oh, I am sorry for this memory! I remembered, last year you did a lecture on the application of 'Aloe in sports bruises'!" Stacy Codas slaps his head and apologizes.
"Yes, that's a little bit of experience I exchanged last year. So long, you remember!" Stasis looked happy.
"Of course remember! Inspired by your speech, some doctors in our medical school have conducted more in-depth research on Aloe in this year. With some new progress, it will be mentioned in this forum." Tasikodas said seriously.
"That's great!" Stasis couldn't help but cheer, forgetting some unnatural Nick Stratus.
But Stacy Codas did not forget, he took the initiative to go forward: "Welcome, Dr. Nick Stratus!"
Nick Stratus's reserved gift ~EbookFREE.me~ and you, Nikasus! Welcome to the Dionysian Academy! "Stacy Codas said enthusiastically, and led them to the direction of the medical school.
"I am really sorry for you! Today is the turn of the doctor who greeted me at the entrance of the college to participate in the forum. I just stood for a long time, some tired, and then I will rest for a small pavilion. By the way, I will listen to the mathematics research institute to discuss the problem of building a stone bridge. I thought I almost missed you." Stacy Codas said embarrassed as he walked.
Stasipus stunned: "You mean building a stone bridge?"

Yes, the Diaonia Road and Bridge Management Department is preparing to build a stone bridge on the Saraceno River to replace the previous wooden bridge. After obtaining the approval of the Senate, the design and data measurement tasks of the stone bridge will be given to the mathematical research. The institute completed. The vice president of the Institute of Mathematics, Martin Koris, took a group of people to fight for ten days. The plan has been basically completed. If this time, the Saracen River stone bridge was successfully built, and several more bridges were built. With enough experience, Little Herakrid can build a bridge on the Krati River!
Stacy Codas
hehehe
smiled, apparently full of expectations, because if a direct connection The stone bridges of the main city of Yi and the south city can be built, so the pedestrians from the south to the north will pass through the stone bridge, and there is no need to go through the wooden bridge of the delta. The environment around the school is bound to be much quieter.
