Throne of Magical Arcana

Since the periodic table of elements has been used for more than two years, its irrefutable regularity hints to the magicians who use it and study it all the time that atoms are not so simple, otherwise why would they show periodicity? Therefore, when Morris, Lavender, Gaston and other high-level officials began to point out the problem slowly, leading to the error of atomic theory, most of the middle and high-level arcanists gradually became suspicious.

After the "closed training" Hathaway used the discovery of the same element to deal a heavy blow to her own atomic theory again, there were very few middle and high-level arcanists who refused to doubt the error of atomic theory in the elemental will, and the low-level Arcanists, magic apprentices, etc. accepted it easily.

It is even easier for magicians outside the will of the elements to change positions that are not solid.

This is an era of terrifying development speed. Not only is the Magic Council exploring more and more deeply, but the Southern Church, Northern Church, and Druids are all growing rapidly. Whoever is left behind may disappear in a hundred or two hundred years. Therefore, after seeing that the situation of changing viewpoints was excellent, the sense of urgency made the highest jury no longer wait, and decided that the October issue of "Arcane" would be the first to publish Lucien's paper "The Discovery of a New Particle." ", to kick off the prelude to the exploration of the microscopic world!

As for the very few arcanists who are still unwilling to suspect that the atomic theory is wrong, they are not considered.

"It's cruel, but it's also very realistic." Outside the magician management department, Lucien commented on Lazar and the others.

Lazar is a staunch elemental mage, and his bright and optimistic smile has become very dim, almost a wry smile: "I think of that sentence you often joked, Lucien, the wheel of history rolls forward, and anything that stops it All things are completely crushed, but not long ago, they were all praised as outstanding Arcanists with potential and know how to endure hardships, how did they become outcasts of fate in just one month?"

The "Atomic Research Institute" is Lucien's "turf", and he naturally has to complete the task of changing the thoughts and views of the magicians and magic apprentices in the research institute.

Fortunately, as the discoverer of the periodic law of elements and the first arcanist to question the meaning behind the law, Lucien's attitude has long indirectly influenced his friends around him. In addition, cathode rays were discovered by the Institute of Atoms, and many The experiments were done by themselves, and the low-level arcanists were still in the stage of using and understanding most of the theories, so things went very smoothly.

Therefore, two weeks ago, Lucien had given them the paper to read and demonstrated the experiment again. Everyone naturally accepted the fact that there are even smaller particles, and atoms are not necessarily indivisible.

"This is the cruelty of fate. However, they are also using the periodic table of elements, and there is a foreshadowing ahead. The impact should only make them perceive that the world is broken rather than collapsed. Even if it is difficult to advance, there is still a glimmer of hope." , does not rule out the possibility that they will overcome themselves one day and accept the changed atomic theory again." Lucien understood that Lazar was cheerful and enthusiastic, had a wide range of contacts, and had many friends inside the elemental will. One of the several arcanists had a good friendship with him, so he comforted him a few words.

Lazar laughed: "There's no need to comfort you, Lucien, I'm just thinking about it for a while. In fact, on the road of magic, there are many people who stop moving forward due to various reasons, or even die every year. They compare Far better are the magicians who inexplicably died of exhaustion or cursed in the lab."

As he said that, Lazar coughed and learned the words of the "judge": "Magicians tried to pry into the realm of the gods and violated the prohibition, so they inexplicably failed, died suddenly or were cursed. This is blasphemy. cost!"

"No, this is the so-called God of Truth's fear of us! The closer we are to the reality of the world, the crazier He will be, and the more he will curse us. Being cursed by Him means that we are on the right path. One day Unmask His hypocrisy!" Lucien saw that Lazar could still joke, so he smiled and cooperated.

These two lines of dialogue are classic lines from the opera "Cerrod" that has become popular in Allinge recently, and they are crazily loved by magicians, and similar dialogues can be heard everywhere—"Cerrod" is a fictional A magician, he has excellent arcane and magical talents, proposed many essential laws and improved a lot of powerful magic, but was betrayed by his beloved lover, and was caught and burned to death by the church. This dialogue appears in the "Tribunal".

And the author of this opera is naturally the great Arcanist Oliver with a strong literary temperament.

Rock watched them "perform" the opera, "helplessly" said: "If you like opera, you can perform it yourself. Lucien, don't you have an excellent musical talent? Your Excellency Oliver's script is great, you can adapt it The musicians who have become operas have not been good enough. For example, the story of "Cerrod" is very moving, but the melody is hard to be called a classic. In short, don't delay me to update the arcane badge, I can't wait to see how far I am in promotion step!"

He nagged and passed between the two of them. Annick, Heidi and other apprentices also gave Lucien a guilty look, and then followed them excitedly, heading to the offices of different deacons. Become an official Arcanist!

——Before they were working, they were preparing to be promoted to official magicians. It wasn't Lucien who reminded them, and almost forgot to update their badges.

"Actually, perhaps, I'm already at the middle level?" Lazar came back to his senses, turned around and walked towards Eric's office, unable to restrain his excitement.

Although many experiments on cathode rays have been completed this month, his papers have been reduced to one, but there should be citation points!

Lucien shook his head with a smile, and walked into Eric's office. It was precisely because he casually said that he was coming to update the badge and buy the latest issue of "Arcane" that the entire Atomic Research Institute Members mobilize collectively.

"You're only five arcane points away from level three, Lazar, the discovery of cathode rays really makes you 'full'." Eric sighed quite a bit, using Allinger's slang "to eat as much as you want." " joked Lazar.

In the past, Lazar had already smiled brightly and excitedly, but now he clicked his lips, shook his head and said, "There are still five arcane points, I don't know when we can get them all..."

Seeing Lucien come in, Eric didn't continue to sit like before, but stood up and shook hands: "I heard that many members of the Magic Research Committee are not optimistic about the 'Atomic Research Institute', no I thought that Evans could achieve great results in three years, but I didn’t expect you to discover a new type of ray after only one or two months of establishment, which was highly praised by the audit committee.”

"The 'Atomic Research Institute' may have a better future than we expected, but unfortunately my main research direction is not elements, otherwise I would have resigned as a deacon and joined the research institute."

"Thank you, Mr. Eric, for your attention. At least for three years, we don't have to worry about the results, and we can study according to the pre-conceived direction. Can you help me renew the badge?" Lucien gave his five silver stars Handed the Art Badge to Eric.

A suspicious smile appeared on Eric's stiff face: "The evaluation results of the impact factor have come out, "Arcane" and "Magic" are the highest 3.0, and I have the ability to make my papers enter the Arcanist level of these two journals They will improve quickly. Evans, you have published many papers on "Arcane", and I believe there will be many in the future. Maybe you will be able to become a sixth-level arcanist in two or three years and be promoted to a higher level. This is better than your magic Levels are much faster."

While speaking, he put Lucien's arcane emblem into the small cage and rang the bell.

"Oh, today is the first date, the date when the impact factor is officially implemented, what are the other journals?" Lucien only knows about "Arcane", "Magic", "Elements" and "Ordinary Arcanist Monthly".

Eric took out a document that had just been released: "Except for "Arcane" and "Magic", there are no 3.0 journals, "Electromagnetic", "Force Field", "Element" and other seven faction journals are 2.5, The journals of the four factions of "Light and Darkness", "Illusion", "Transformation" and "Summoning", the periodicals sponsored by the five magic council branches, and the journals of six small fields such as "Golem" and "Ice and Snow" are 2.0."

"Journal of Northland Magic, Solar Islands Magic Council Branch Monthly, Sound Wave and other nine journals in small fields, as well as "Ordinary Arcanist Monthly" is 1.5, "Blessing", "Curse" and other four Five comprehensive periodicals including small-field periodicals and "Arcane Discussion" are 1.0."

In the past few years, due to the increase of magicians, the review committee approved the addition of a small-field journal and three comprehensive journals.

As for the evaluation criteria, Lucien, who is only one badge away from becoming an audit committee member, knows more than Eric. It encourages research on arcane arts and magic, so that magicians will not be obsessed with ancient theories. For those theories that are correct, it is necessary to delve into the reasons why the theory is correct or establish a complete and easy-to-learn system.

Suddenly, the small cage lit up with bright silver, but before the silver stopped, milky white light came out.

"What's going on here?" Eric frowned rather puzzled, isn't it simply updating the badge?

Lazar twitched the corner of his mouth, every time there was something wrong with Lucien...

The light subsided, and not only the arcane badge appeared in the small cage, but also three more things, namely a badge with the back facing up, two documents, and a book with a dark black cover.

"Arcane Journal?" Today's Arcane Journal is a little late. Eric thought it would be postponed until tomorrow, but he didn't expect it to be sent directly through the tower, which is really weird.

Therefore, he first picked up the "Arcane" journal, and found that there was an extra line of silver-white words in medium font on the cover made of countless silver-white lines:

"The door to the microcosm is opening to us.

—Lucien Evans X"

Eric turned his head to look at Lucien in surprise. The cover epistle of "Arcane" has only appeared more than thirty times so far. Master and legendary magician outlined the meaning of the inscription. As a scene in historical records, this time it was actually written by Lucien Evans? !

"Actually, I still want to write, 'Arcanists, do you want to ascend to the throne of arcane arts? Then explore this unknown microscopic realm!'" Lucien laughed at himself.

The gods are so cruel, ask for a monthly ticket, please stay in the first four for a while~
