The academic conference lasted for a full seven days, and each day brought astonishing discoveries that shook the world's understanding.

During the first two days, the academy's mathematics teachers demonstrated Greiman's Three Laws of Motion with precise brass instruments.

(Paul: Oh, there's nothing I can do if everyone insists on calling them that. Nobody would believe it if I claimed they were discovered by ancient sages.)

The copper balls rolling ceaselessly down smooth inclined planes allowed everyone to intuitively understand the concept of inertia for the first time; the speed differences displayed by wooden carts of different weights under the same pulling force perfectly verified the relationship between force and mass; and when two assistants pushed against each other on skateboards, the sight of them moving backward simultaneously drew gasps from the entire room-the symmetrical beauty of action and reaction was breathtaking.

The highlight of the third day fell upon the Universal Gravitation Theory. This should have been a discovery personally unveiled by Lord Greiman, but now it had to be left to the teachers to demonstrate on his behalf.

A huge pendulum swung in the center of the venue, demonstrating the constant gravitational pull of the earth upon objects, while an exquisite planetarium displayed that invisible tractive force between celestial bodies-whether it was a falling apple or the orbiting moon, they unexpectedly followed the same set of mathematical laws.

When Terry Cable, speaking on his behalf, read out Greiman's manuscript: "There exists an attractive force between all things that is directly proportional to their mass and inversely proportional to the square of the distance," the scholars present collectively gasped, and someone even knocked over their ink in excitement.

These laws ought to have been personally expounded by the lord, but now they could only be demonstrated on behalf by
