Chapter 1335: Chapter 529: "Suspension Phase" (3)
"He wasn’t trying to eliminate fear; instead, he was guiding these emotions to find appropriate expressions and solutions."
"It’s like a great conductor, facing an out-of-control orchestra, doesn’t simply silence everyone but silently rearranges the tempo, letting each section return to its proper position."
Hillas’s method, however, seemed simple and crude to Weinard:
"The Spiritual Damping Field can indeed quickly suppress abnormal fluctuations, but this suppression merely addresses the symptoms, not the cause."
"It’s like tightening a rope around an ever-expanding balloon.
On the surface, the deformation is controlled, but the internal pressure still exists and may even become more dangerous due to external constraints."
Alister also began to understand the differences between the two methods:
"If we consider the apprentices’ spiritual state as a precise energy engine, then Ron’s approach is adjusting the running parameters of the engine, allowing the components to harmonize again."
"While Hillas’s method directly cools and depressurizes the engine. Although it can prevent an explosion, it may damage the internal structure of the engine."
Ella put down her record book and slowly exhaled:
"Ron’s ’Soul Symphony’... This ability has transcended mere teaching techniques; it’s more like an art of healing."
In the clash of the two forces, Ron’s [Soul Symphony] gradually gained the upper hand.
Although Hillas’s damping field is more direct and effective from a technical standpoint, it lacks the necessary ’finesse’ and ’humanity’.
Ron’s approach, though more complex and requiring more time and effort, can solve the problem fundamentally, rather than merely masking the symptoms.
When the last note of the [Soul Symphony] fell, the dome of reflective silence returned to tranquility.
All alarms stopped, the monitoring equipment’s readings returned to normal ranges, even more stable than before the experiment started.
The apprentices slowly opened their eyes, worn out to the point of almost wanting to fall asleep immediately.
They had gone through the deepest trauma and achieved true self-reconciliation under the master’s guidance.
In the observation room, Weinard shut down the backup safety system that Alister was about to activate.
"Convene an emergency evaluation meeting immediately."
His electronic voice carried an indisputable authority:
"All departmental heads, assemble in the main conference hall within fifteen minutes."
Ella’s face showed both relief and worry.
As the actual administrator of the academy, she was certainly relieved at the apprentices’ ultimate safety.
Yet, the impact of this ’major safety accident’ is not something that a mere ’successful resolution’ can erase.
"Alister, you’re responsible for collecting all technical data."
Weinard continued to assign tasks:
"Hillas, prepare your incident analysis report. Ceren, I need a complete record of the incident."
Hillas nodded calmly, while internally quickly organizing his explanations.
He had long prepared the perfect scenario for this moment.
.........
In the main conference hall, the atmosphere was as heavy as amber.
Surrounding the oval crystal conference table sat the core management of the colony, each expression filled with seriousness.
Weinard sat in the chairperson’s seat, before him lay the just-printed incident data report.
The densely packed numbers and graphs recorded everything that just happened with the precision of a dissection knife.
"First, let’s establish one fact."
Weinard’s voice echoed in the conference hall:
"In this incident, there were no casualties, and the apprentices’ mental states were fully restored in the end.
Based on the results, this ’teaching experiment’ was successful."
His words made Ella slightly breathe a sigh of relief, but Hillas’s brow faintly furrowed.
This kind of opening statement was clearly not the development direction he anticipated.
"However," Weinard shifted his tone:
"The risk control failures during the process are also serious issues that cannot be ignored.
If handled improperly, the consequences would be unimaginable."
He directed his gaze at Hillas:
"Master Hillas, please provide a detailed report on the technical details and emergency handling procedures of the incident."
Hillas stood up calmly, holding a beautifully bound technical report.
Its cover was embossed with gold letters reading ’Analysis and Emergency Handling of the Abnormal Energy Fluctuation Incident in the Dome of Reflective Silence.’
"Respected Professor Weinard and colleagues."
His voice was clear and orderly:
"According to my preliminary assessment and real-time monitoring data, the occurrence of this incident had a certain inevitability."
Hillas opened to the first page of the report, which displayed a detailed risk warning table:
"During the teaching plan review phase, I had already expressed concerns in the technical memorandum.
The cumulative effect of ’emotional entropy’ in the complex mystical operation combining historical projection with emotional guidance presents a theoretical possibility of exceeding the equipment’s capacity limit."
He pointed to the data marked in red in the table:
"The standard carrying threshold of the dome of reflective silence is 15 kilimam, with a safety redundancy factor of 20%.
According to the conventional energy consumption of historical projection, this redundancy is sufficient to handle most abnormal circumstances."
"However," Hillas’s tone became more severe:
"Ron Master’s ’Resonance Technique’ possesses an extraordinary effect in emotional amplification.
When twelve apprentices simultaneously entered a deep fear state, the generated emotional entropy far exceeded our expectations."
He turned to the second page of the report, which showed a series of dizzying mathematical formulas:
