Super Spender-Chapter 1254

Chapter 1254: Chapter 1248: Extra – The Meeting Between Finn Lewis and Nicolas Tesla_1 Chapter 1254 -1248: Extra – The Meeting Between Finn Lewis and Nicolas Tesla_1 Knowing that Finn Lewis had arrived in Tidal City, Steve Lewis naturally prepared everything for him as soon as possible.

The carriage quickly took Finn Lewis and Nicolas to a nearby manor.

Upon entering the manor, Nicolas became even more surprised because such estates were very rare throughout the North Federation.

Furthermore, the luxurious architecture and facilities were definitely not something an ordinary person could possess.

How could a person of Asian descent have such power and prestige in the North Federation?

It was simply impossible.

However, Nicolas Tesla was just curious.

...

He had just arrived in the North Federation, so everything here was of no concern to him.

Moreover, he wasn’t interested in these things at all.

If it hadn’t been for Finn Lewis mentioning alternating current, he probably wouldn’t have been interested in Lewis at all.

Soon they entered the villa, and the manor’s servants were very respectful towards them along the way.

After they sat down in the living room, a servant brought them two cups of coffee.

Although Nicolas Tesla was not interested in such things, he could tell that the coffee was ground from the finest beans.

As for bluffing in front of this genius, Finn Lewis felt no pressure at all.

Although this genius was the founding figure of applied physics in later generations, to be honest, any physics student from the future could deceive him easily.

There was no help for it, since knowledge from later years was built upon more than a century of foundation.

They were standing on the shoulders of giants.

“Alright, we’ve had our coffee.

Do you have something to say now?” Nicolas Tesla asked directly, looking at Finn Lewis after taking a sip of his coffee.

This world’s genius wasn’t so easy to bluff.

Don’t think that just because you’re standing on the shoulders of giants, you can easily converse with a genius.

A simple statement about alternating current, for example, wouldn’t perplex just college students but even middle or high school students could understand it.

However, if you try to use it to bluff a genius, you would be in deep trouble because their way of thinking is absolutely different from normal people.

For example, when you talk about alternating current and they ask you whether a bipole magnetic coil or a single-stage coil is better for generating electricity, don’t you think you’d be at a loss?

Although Finn Lewis felt his IQ was sufficient and he had learned quite a lot, he believed it’s wiser to stay modest when dealing with such professionals.

So, without saying a second word, he simply took out something very ordinary, a diesel generator that can be found anywhere in the 21st century, and placed it in front of Nicolas Tesla.

When dealing with such a genius, there’s no need for words, just serve up the dish.

The machines from the modern era were clearly different from those of this era.

It might be a very ordinary diesel generator in the modern world, one that any small factory could make without any difficulty, but in this time and space, it was nothing short of magical!

Especially when it came to its finely polished exterior, even Nicolas Tesla’s eyes lit up at first glance, unable to move away from the device.

Finn Lewis didn’t say a word until Tesla had his fill of looking and finally turned back to Finn Lewis and asked with some difficulty, “What is this?”

“A diesel generator.

All you need to know is that it’s an internal combustion engine that drives a generator, which produces alternating current, oh, with a steady output of 380 volts,” Finn Lewis said straightforwardly.

Alternating current.

Hearing these three words made Nicolas Tesla look up in surprise, because he was certain that the concept of alternating current did not exist in this world.

Well, not exactly nonexistent, but aside from himself, who was interested and prepared to study this field, everyone else was focused on direct current, including Edison Ainsworth, for whom he currently worked.

Yet, he had never expected to learn of the term “alternating current” not just from someone’s mouth but also to see a machine capable of generating it.

Finn Lewis didn’t waste words and simply instructed a nearby robot to start up the diesel generator.

The tremendous power driven by the diesel generator from modern industry, particularly the frightening speed, left Tesla utterly astonished.

Although Tesla was only interested in electrics and electromagnetics, he was after all a physicist and was not unfamiliar with internal combustion engines.

In fact, he was proficient in this area because internal combustion engines were needed in his power-generating facilities.

One could imagine, in an era where large drives still employed internal combustion engines, the shock brought by such a formidable diesel engine.

Bear in mind, in this era, even gasoline and diesel internal combustion engines operated at speeds of around 200 to 300 RPM.

How fast was this internal combustion engine?

Nicolas Tesla, looking at the belt-driven flywheel which nevertheless could not be discerned, was completely dumbfounded.

Was this still an internal combustion engine?

Finn Lewis, standing by the side, was somewhat speechless, “Hey, genius, I was showing you alternating current, not leaving you to stare blankly at a diesel engine.”

But Finn Lewis had no idea what a powerful diesel engine meant in this era.

“Hey, are you alright?” he asked, reaching out and waving his hand in front of Nicolas Tesla, then finally snapped him out of it.

“Oh, oh, what happened?

What did you say?” Nicolas Tesla was clearly not paying attention to what Finn Lewis was saying.

“I said, what’s wrong with you?

Have them demonstrate alternating current for you.” For someone like Finn Lewis, and the future genius next to him, demonstrating alternating current was a very simple matter.

Roughly two hours later, Nicolas Tesla slumped down on the sofa, looking somewhat defeated, because alternating current was something he had conceived and was planning to study.

But no one had expected to see such an efficient finished product for something he was still conceptualizing.

The so-called layman enjoys the show, the expert appreciates the technique.

Although Nicolas Tesla isn’t at his peak yet, he actually already has a fairly high standard.

Therefore, he can clearly understand how strong an industrial foundation is needed to produce such a generator and internal combustion engine.

Even in the Great Alliance Nation, he had not seen such a strong industrial foundation, let alone here in the North Federation.

Seeing Nicolas Tesla’s somewhat off expression, Finn Lewis knew without being a psychologist that the great scientist had obviously been hit hard.

Damn it, this wasn’t the outcome he wanted, so Finn swiftly interrupted Tesla’s thoughts and asked directly, “Nicolas, do you want to know how this thing was researched and what its principles are?” At this time, Tesla hadn’t begun his research on alternating current, so he was naturally very curious about these matters.

Although he was quite shocked, as a scientist, he had endless curiosity about his field of interest.

When Finn asked, he immediately looked up at Finn and said without hesitation, “Of course I want to know.”

“Do you know who invented it?” Finn asked, pointing to the generator that had stopped beside him.

“Who?

Among the people I know, it seems no one has done research in this area.

Could you introduce me to this professor?

I could be his student too,” Nicolas said quickly, his eyes shining with light.

Finn smiled and decisively pointed at himself.

“What do you mean?” Nicolas Tesla frowned, completely not understanding what Finn meant.

“I mean, you invented it,” Finn said straightforwardly.

Nicolas Tesla’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Finn and said quickly, “Although I believe in God, I don’t think you are God.”

Finn almost laughed.

At this time, Albert Ainsworth was just a child, and his theory of relativity hadn’t been proposed yet, so much of the understanding of space and time in physics was still at a very basic stage.

However, Finn knew that if he couldn’t convince Nicolas Tesla, it would be very difficult to get his point across.

So Finn straightforwardly began to lecture the great scientist.

But more than teaching, Finn was narrating, and most of what he narrated came directly from Lewis senior through communication.

Naturally, Finn began with the theory of relativity for Tesla.

These theories are quite easy to understand for someone studying physics, even though many things haven’t been proven yet.

Humankind never lacked imagination, especially for a scientist; whether something made sense or not was often easy to discern.

After stating Einstein’s theories directly, Nicolas Tesla was thoroughly bamboozled.

But that wasn’t enough; Finn had to bamboozle him more decisively, “&…So, it’s possible that space could be multidimensional.

If you consider two-dimensional space to only have length and width, forming a plane, then three-dimensional space includes height and forms a solid.

The space we inhabit would be considered three-dimensional, and the fourth dimension would include time.

Space and time together make up the entire universe.

In the fifth dimension, you surpass both space and time.

In the fifth dimension, time would no longer be an insurmountable barrier.

It would be like a river you can observe from the side.”

“You mean to say, you are a person from the future?” Nicolas Tesla felt dizzy and his brain seemed inadequate.

This was too astonishing; the information he had received today was absolutely the biggest shock of his life!

If it weren’t for the physical evidence presented by the other party, all of this would have been unimaginable to him, and he would have thought Finn was a lunatic.

Of course, although Finn’s explanations made sense, much of it was based on discoveries that hadn’t yet been made.

“So, what do you want from me?” A scientist’s intelligence is naturally not low.

Though scientists might lack social subtleties and be awkward with worldly matters, it doesn’t mean they are fools.

After Finn finished speaking, Nicolas Tesla immediately caught on and looked directly at Finn to ask.
