So, the only thing alchemists needed was a large particle collider. They were way ahead of their time.

we just need a bigger transmutation circle bro, trust me, just one more transmutation circle, and we’ll finally turn organic material into gold, bro, just around the whole city bro, one more time

  • I can’t quite put this into words but the idea of a transmutation circle actually being the track of a particle collider is just so funny to me.

    • This is the plot of countless animes. New magical dude becomes ruler of the city state, constructs 5 new buildings that end up drawing a citywide transmutation circle to harvest all of the souls/etc

    • One episode of The Librarians involves a college student building a mini particle accelerator that (unintentionally) uses a magic circle around the campus as its track, which when activated opens a portal into another dimension filled with monsters.

  • OK Elon.

    Edit: this was a joke, in case it wasn’t clear.

    • I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that most of your downvotes are from people who didn't find your joke funny, not from people who believe you sincerely but incorrectly identified the parent poster.
