Throne of Magical Arcana

Douglas School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in a garden villa belonging to the teacher.

Rock, who was a guest at a friend's house during the New Year's holiday and was still hungover, was yelling with the "Arcane" journal, both surprised and excited, and from time to time he said "it's possible to do this" and "well done".

"Oops, I'm going to be late!" Rock was so excited that he suddenly saw the clock hanging in the living room of his friend's house, and his body bounced up suddenly. The friend said hello and hurried out the door.

On the school avenue, yellow and fallen leaves are falling, creating a strange romantic atmosphere, but Rock has no intention of admiring it, and rushes to the place where the carriage is rented at a very fast pace.

"Isn't this Rock? When did the senior figures from the Atomic Research Institute go back to school?" A sharp voice pretending to be surprised suddenly came from the side.

Hearing this slightly deep and hoarse voice, Rock stopped abruptly, looked sideways to the other side of the avenue, and saw the honest-looking Beate and others standing under the tree.

"Beate?" Rock's expression suddenly became excited, he didn't care about Beate's hostile attitude, and said with a smile, "Have you watched "Arcane" today?"

Beata was stunned for a moment. When did Rock, who usually taunted each other, be so kind?

"Didn't read it? What's the matter?" A teacher from the Department of Electromagnetics next to him replied suspiciously.

Rock suppressed the urge to blurt out, and smiled maliciously: "Do you still remember the bright and dazzling star more than half a month ago? It was created and launched by Your Excellency the Speaker! The first paper is a detailed experiment. !"

"What? This, how is this possible?" Beata didn't think of other problems, but his face was full of horror. This, is this an experiment that humans can complete?

The other teachers next to him had the same expression.

Rock induced him very patiently: "This fully proves the correctness of Your Excellency Speaker's theory, and it effectively counters the secret doubts in the past few hundred years."

"That's right." Beatt agreed. Douglas's theoretical system has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so he nodded subconsciously.

Rock suddenly laughed: "Then when we discussed the speed of light experiment of Your Excellency the Speaker last time, didn't you deny it on the grounds that there was a problem with the theoretical system of the Speaker? Now? Do you believe it? Or have you thought of other reasons? "

Beata raised his right hand and pointed at Rock, shaking his fingers violently: "You!"

He is only a second-level arcanist, and he really can't think of any other theoretical explanation for the moment.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that the two theories put forward in the last issue of "Arcane" and "Magic" have been refuted by the Storm Master. One is to refute from its own loopholes, and the other is to require experimental proof, but I believe that there are indeed experimental results If it is, the proposer will definitely attach it as soon as possible, and if he can't get it out, it will prove that he has made experimental results that are not conducive to the paper." Rock blocked Beate's train of thought.

Beate was furious and unable to accept it: "Then you use particle theory to explain the double-slit diffraction fringes and Brook's bright spots!"

"This is not the focus of our discussion now. Come on, please come up with other explanations for the speed of light experiment of your Excellency the Speaker to prove the existence of ether! Hmph, if the ether does not exist, what is the value of the wave theory? By the way, "Arcane" "In the journal, Mr. Artier offered a reward of 50,000 arcane points for similar theories, so that you arcanists who support the theory of fluctuations can use your imagination!" Rock avoided the important and said lightly, the last two words were deliberately emphasized, emphasizing that it is only imagine.

Beate felt that if it weren’t for the classical optical image to support him, he might have been shaken. Now he firmly insists on the bottom line: “If you can’t bring it up now, it doesn’t mean there is no one! You should use particle theory to explain the double slit. Diffraction these experiments! It's been nearly a hundred years!"

"Stubborn, refusing to face reality!" Roque sarcastically said loudly.

Beat roared: "You are the same, refusing to face up to those classic experiments!"

In this way, Rock started a long debate one by one, but both sides talked about themselves, and did not reply to the other party's question at all. It seems that even when the world is destroyed, there will be no result.

"It's over, it's already late!" It wasn't until Rock found out that the winter sun had already warmed him up that he panicked belatedly. When he thought of the arcane points that would be deducted, his heart ached.

So, Rock looked at Beate and the others with contempt: "Stop going around again, and if you have the ability to refute the speed of light experiment of the speaker, go and get the reward! I'm waiting for you to exchange 50,000 arcane points for copper." The day Phil lost me!"

"If you don't have this ability, don't promote volatility!"

After finishing speaking, he walked away without giving Beata a chance to reply at all, which was the essence of debating the war and leaving with one blow.

Just as Beat wanted to refute Rock again with a classic experiment, he found that he had run away without a trace, and the aggrieved anger that could not be vented burned his heart like a flame: "Damn bastard! Idiot! Fool! "

Similar scenes also happened in many places in Allinge, but basically the arcanists who insisted on the particle theory confronted a group of supporters of the wave theory with an absolute numerical disadvantage, but thanks to the strong proof of the speed of light experiment, they rarely Gaining the upper hand, he completely vented his usual depression, and the arcanist, who was so angry that he supported the wave theory, erupted in anger but had no choice.

The only good news is that because of the existence of classical optical experiments, the cognitive world constructed by the arcanists based on the wave theory has not been strongly shaken. They believe that there must be other theories including the ether medium that can explain Douglass' light speed experiment.

…………

In the "Electromagnetic Kingdom", Brook saw a new issue of the "Arcane" journal.

He touched his wig headgear, and sighed softly: "The teacher actually thought of this idea of ​​proof...As expected of the teacher..."

He turned the journal to the last page, carefully read Artier's "Battle Declaration", then shook his head, got up and walked to the window, looking at the distorted magnetic field, flowing current, jumping arc and invisible electromagnetic waves outside , whispered to himself: "Where is the problem with the speed of light experiment?"

"Its result is correct, but it doesn't mean that ether doesn't exist. Maybe ether fills the starry sky in a form that we can't imagine at present."

"In fact, we should thank the teacher for this experiment, which allowed us to eliminate many ideas about ether, and it is getting closer and closer to reality."

"In what way should it exist in order to conform to the results of this experiment?" Brook was lost in thought.

Unless faced with irrefutable proof, every grand arcanist has a lot more persistence in his own theory than ordinary people.

…………

In "The Theater of Destruction".

Oliver Constantine in pajamas was leisurely leaning on the deck chair, eating the grapes fed by his wife Florence, and carefully reading the journal "Arcane".

"Hey, Artier challenged us?" Oliver said to Florence with a smile on his face.

Altair became a student of Douglas only ten years later than Brooke. He has very old qualifications and is quite familiar with every great arcanist and legendary magician.

Florence raised her delicate eyebrows: "What challenge?" She only read Douglas's first paper before being "robbed" of the journal by her husband.

After Oliver sang two ambiguous opera lines, he said: "He offered a reward for a theory that can explain the speed of light experiment and includes the ether medium."

"Hehe, isn't this great?" Florence said with a charming and charming smile. As a high-level arcanist, she quickly clarified the relationship between the Douglas artificial planet experiment and the speed of light experiment after hearing her husband's words, and she, who is best at elemental magic, undoubtedly supports particle theory, which is different from Oliver's. The insistence on volatility has irreconcilable contradictions.

Oliver smiled and stretched out his hand to pinch the tip of Florence's upturned nose: "What? You still want to argue with me about the wave-particle issue?"

"Of course, I don't think you can explain the speed of light experiment." Florence was quite insistent on theoretical issues.

Oliver laughed and said, "If I can explain, you have to promise me a request."

"No problem, if you can't explain it, you have to agree to my request." Florence very cooperatively turned the theoretical conflict into a couple's pleasure. It's a small way for them to bond in a situation where many theories disagree.

Oliver sat up straight and said with a smile: "I feel that I am full of motivation to work!"

…………

Roland, who happened to be in Allinge, the authority of the Electromagnetic Department and the winner of the Silver Moon Medal, looked at the journal in front of him with a gloomy face, and growled in a low voice: "Damn Artier!"

He not only adheres to the theory of energy essence, but also is one of the advocates of the wave theory. One of them is matter, and the other is light and spiritual power. They do not conflict. He even believes that waves are the only form of energy other than matter.

"Damn Norman, Luciana, Lucien!" He didn't dare to curse Douglas and Fernando, so he cursed the other thanked personnel separately.

After cursing, he returned his attention to the thesis, pacing back and forth in the room, looking for any angles that could be explained.

After calming down, every middle-level and above arcanist who insisted on the wave theory began to rack their brains to think of a theory that could explain the experiment.

…………

In the eyes of everyone, Lucien, who has always liked to cause controversy and solve difficult problems, remained silent rarely, and did not make any practical comments on the wave theory and particle theory.

When the Magic Council fell into the "wave-particle war" again, the second artificial planet successfully circled the world, the third communication planet secretly entered orbit, and the Allinge Telephone and Telegraph Company was preliminarily established.

As the wave-particle war intensified, at the end of January, Lucien received an invitation from the High Tower to present the Arcane Scepter to himself and Levsky respectively. The location was the High Tower in Allinge. Tower headquarters.

The carriage brought Lucien, Lazar from the Atomic Research Institute and others to a stop at the door, and met Levsky who arrived almost at the same time.

"Good evening, Levsky." Lucien greeted him as he got off the carriage.

Levsky smiled wryly: "It's not good at all. Analyzing the new geometric system is quite difficult, and during this time my friends often quarreled over the wave theory and particle theory, which made it difficult for me to get quiet."

You will also hear about the "wave-particle war" here, and Lucien is also a little helpless.
