Chapter 43 The Veritable "Professor"
After flipping through the formulas listed in this article, as well as the meanings represented by the formula symbols in the last appendix of the "Arcane" journal, Lucian analyzed these formulas and found that they were basically consistent with the celestial mechanics formulas he knew, that is, the results calculated by them, as long as the magician did not make a calculation error, should be more accurate, but in that accurate position, the existence of the planet could not be found! Seen on the mainland!
"It's really plausible." Lucian once again let out the exclamation he had had before, and then browsed through the article and saw the end.
After pondering for a while, Lucian turned the article to the first page, wanting to see who the author was: "Oliver? Constantine, the great arcanist, the legendary magic profession 'Hand of Annihilation' level 3."
"It turned out to be a great arcanist, and he was also a legendary magician!"
Lucian rose in surprise again: "Looking at the position of the arrangement, the nobility of the great arcanist in the magical world should still be above the legendary magician, and the two can exist at the same time, it should be a different evaluation system, well, one is a grading of strength improvement, and the other is probably from the perspective of contribution to the study of magical principles."
With this idea, Lucian quickly flipped through the back and looked at the signatures of those articles, and sure enough, they were basically "Level 8 Arcanist, Nine-Ring Astrologer", "Sixth Level Arcanist, Eight-Ring Elemental Mage", affirming Lucian's guess, and basically no arcane level exceeded the magic level, it seemed that it was more difficult to be promoted on this.
Looking at the magic levels of the ninth, eighth, and seventh rings, Lucian flipped through the following articles, they were:
"Research on String Vibration Problems in Certain Magic";
"Differentiation, or a Brief Description of Infinite Series";
"A Certain Solution to the Seven Bridges Problem";
"Derivation of several issues that should be paid attention to when electricity and magnetism are transformed into each other in magic";
……
"A New Element Determined" by a new method;
"The Eternal Question: Whether Mental Power Exists in the Form of Waves or Particles - An Experimental Study of "Mind Storm" Magic".
…………
Lucian seriously opened the journal, which made Smyer, Sage, Morningstar and other magic apprentices nod secretly, this may really be an official magician, when he got the journal, he and others were like Smail once said, they knew every word, but when they were connected, they didn't know each other, and the hanged dead and Mercury were still suspicious, after all, they didn't understand and tried to read it, and they were also in this state.
After spending half an hour and browsing through it roughly, Lucian had a certain understanding of the knowledge contained inside:
"Judging from these formulas, the degree of arcane in this world, in just three or four hundred years, in mathematics and physics may have reached the level of the earth in the middle of the 18th century, calculus was initially established, the study of geometric problems such as curved surfaces and spheres advanced by leaps and bounds, mechanics and electromagnetism tended to be perfected, and because of the strangeness of the development of this world, many things are applied first and then studied, so some aspects of magic exceed the level of earth technology, such as space jumping."
"Elemental magic, that is, the degree of research in chemistry, has reached the level of the early 19th century, determining that earth, fire, feng shui, and feng shui are not elements, as well as the standard of elements, and the preliminary determination of atomic weight has begun."
"These are still the results of research more than 20 years ago, and today, even if their development is hindered by many difficulties similar to the "existence of planets", they should generally be at the level of the early 19th century, and chemistry may have reached the level of the middle of the 19th century."
Because it was an "Arcane" journal, Lucian read it more easily, and if it was the kind of journal that connected arcane research theory with the use of magic, he needed to learn slowly.
However, Lucian would rather be the kind of journal because it can guide his current magic learning to the greatest extent, and he is different from others, and his ability to apply it is far behind the basic and principle knowledge.
Closing the "Arcane" journal, Lucian smiled at the magic apprentices who suddenly looked over: "I read it roughly, many things in it are very interesting, can you put this journal here with me in the next two weeks?"
"No problem, Mr. Professor, as long as you can answer my question." The sage made an old voice, "Because this "Arcane" journal belongs to everyone, and you are here for the first time, this guidance is not a private guidance with paper and pen, but a direct communication so that everyone can hear it, okay?"
"I still want to test my knowledge level, hehe, in this world, I am a rare freak, let's see how you judge." Lucian replied in a strange voice, "Of course, sage, you can start asking."
The sage took out a large stack of paper full of words and numbers from a wooden box he was carrying, and asked Lucian to turn the "Arcane" journal to the first article: "Mr. Professor, you said that you are better at elemental and astrological magic, and I happen to have a question about astrological changes that I want to ask you."
"When I got this Arcane journal, I was fascinated by the formulas of the first article, they seemed to perfectly explain the various trajectorial changes on the astrological chart, but I was just a magic apprentice, and what I got was ancient magic inheritance.
This question seemed to have been discussed for a long time in this circle of magic apprentices, and it received everyone's attention, and their eyes all condensed and they were silent.
Lucian heard that he was asking about celestial mechanics, and said amusedly: "You have many questions, I will only answer one, which is about the meaning and basic principles of each of these formulas, do you want to listen?"
"Yes, Mr. Professor." The sage didn't expect that this mysterious man, who didn't know if he was an official magician, could really guide, so he answered without hesitation, and Smile, the hanging deed, etc. all nodded in the same way, after all, in the first article, the six words "legendary magic profession" deeply attracted their hearts.
Lucian picked up the quill on the table and pointed to a symbol in the formula: "This is the symbol of the gravitational constant, and gravity is the fundamental principle of these formulas."
"What is gravity, when you jump up, the force that will fall without flying magic is the force of the apple ripe and falling naturally. These things are not ordained by God, and up, down, left, and right are never independent concepts, but relative, and only when they are ...... are forced.
Lucian explained the formula in a simple way, while Sage, Morning Star, Smile and others were confused and asked why from time to time, but Lucian answered directly: "These are the basic questions of magic principles, if you need to explain it clearly to you, there must be a lot of premises, assumptions, and relevant knowledge, to start from the beginning, it is not a matter of a few hours, but a matter of years, more than ten years, now, you know the conclusion of use, don't ask too much, and study it after you become an official magician."
Even if it is knowledge in junior high school and high school, it needs to be made up for by slowly studying the literature and papers in the library, so while saying the above words, Lucian said silently in his heart: "The real reason is, I don't understand it either!"
Lucian's words made the sage sigh: "The world of magic is really vast and deep, containing the truth of the existence and operation of this world.
Although the mysterious man "Professor" only briefly talked about the application problem, involving laws, theorems, etc., but gave a conclusion, without saying why it was like this, but just the meaning of the formula, the law of planetary motion, and how to apply the formula, all made them gain a lot.
As Lucian finished his talk about the general application of all the formulas involved in the article "A Discussion on the Failure of the Fifth Search for Planets", the sage suddenly fell silent completely, and then suddenly picked up the quill as if trembling all over, acting out what he was doing on the paper, ignoring the things next to him, as if he were completely immersed in the world of arcane.
And the apprentices who had some research in astrological magic, such as Morning Star, Reindeer, White Gloves, Mercury, and the Hanged Dead, also became in a trance, took out a quill, wrote dense formulas and data on a blank piece of paper, and began to calculate.
Only White Honey, Smile, and Quercus were better, they could only barely identify a few astrological charts in astrological magic, but even so, they could feel that behind the application of the formula that Lucian just mentioned, there was a vast and profound mystery, and everything had a law of cause and effect.
"Mr. Professor, I have always suspected that you are not an official magician, and now I apologize to you, I hope you can accept that you are the most knowledgeable, kind-hearted, and personable magician I have ever seen, and I even feel that with the arcane and magic knowledge you have, you are not a beginner magician." White Honey is a female magic apprentice who has rarely spoken before, and deliberately changed her voice to be hoarse like an old woman, but now, under the excited apology, she revealed a little of her original voice, but it was slightly low and hoarse, with a unique female charm.
And her words made Lucian, Smile, and Oak all hear an important message, that is, there is a magic circle behind White Honey, and there are formal magicians in that circle, but magic apprentices like White Honey often do not receive the guidance of formal magicians.
Lucian replied with the evil magician's characteristic sinister laughter: "I accept your apology. In fact, I don't care, no matter what others think of me, my knowledge and strength are all my own, and I will not be discounted because of other people's doubts."
Lucian didn't ask the circle with formal magicians, because it was certain from Bai Honey's attitude that they didn't know about the headquarters of the Continental Magic Council, and there were no other arcane journals, so he was still an apprentice magic apprentice, since he didn't have the harvest he wanted the most, there was no need to take this risk, and it was not too late to go when he was strong enough.
Seeing that the others were still addicted, White Honey began to exchange certain magic materials with Smile and Oak Tree, and Lucian saw that he needed them, so he used the experiment as an excuse to buy some with Silvernal.
After almost twenty minutes, the other magic apprentices woke up one after another, with the sage being the most excited, he stood up, with the etiquette of an ancient magician, rested his right hand on his forehead, and bowed deeply to Lucian: "You are a knowledgeable mentor, you are the leader of the wizarding world, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to you."
"Mr. Professor, your explanation of the formula has allowed me to solve the problem of determining the trajectory of the astrological chart that has troubled me for many years, and let me see the hope of analyzing a ring of astrological magic.
The hanging deceased, Morning Star, etc. also expressed their gratitude to Lucian for his guidance, and then another female magic apprentice, Mercury, stood up, bowed first, and then asked Lucian in a slightly changed sweet voice: "Mr. Professor, can I ask you a question about elemental magic? I brought the black corpse mushrooms you want."
Her tone carries strong expectations and nervousness for fear of rejection.
Bai Honey, Quercus and others also looked at Lucian with the same respect: "Please guide you, Mr. Professor, if Mercury agrees, we want to observe."
Their attitude was respectful like elementary school students facing a strict teacher, which made Lucian have to sigh in his heart: "I am a veritable 'professor'."
