Chapter 203 Filing
"The idea of a similar arrangement originally came about like this, I was new to the redefined elemental magic, so I exchanged many papers on the properties of elements and purified elements, while verifying the properties of each aspect according to the design of the paper, while writing the different properties of the same element - including their properties of oxides, etc., on a single card, and then arranging the cards starting from the element with the smallest atomic weight, so that I could remember, understand and apply."
"In this arrangement, I find it strange that the properties of the elements are repeated periodically, and even the valence states discussed in the latest journal of Elements present an incredible but equally wonderful arithmetic sequence, all of which seem to be related to the arrangement of atomic weights from small to large. So I immediately made a bold assumption, is the property of elements an external manifestation of atomic weight? Whether it is possible to establish a logical elemental system based on the atomic weight of the elements, providing us with laws to learn from to find and discover new elements and create new elemental magic, and then I experimented with this system many times."
After confirming that elements have periodic laws, Lucian boldly guessed that the microstructure inside atoms also has protons, electrons, etc., but without any magic experiments or theoretical proofs, he can only continue to use atomic weights to arrange them, otherwise he will exceed his "arcane level".
After the beginning, it is the basis for Lucian's arrangement, including the physical and chemical properties of the elements, as well as the properties of their compounds and alchemical products, and then draw up a table containing sixty-five elements according to these laws, and summarize:
"In the periodic table of my trial row, it is clear that each vertical row of elements has similar properties."
……
"And according to the similarity of properties, I did not mechanically arrange them all the way down according to the atomic weights, but left appropriate spaces and corrected the atomic weights of some elements, because they could not be arranged in the correct position according to their current atomic weights. Based on this, I boldly guessed that the atomic weight data of these elements were inherently wrong, and suggested that the arcanists re-determine the results and use different methods, and the results should be similar to my corrections. This can also prove the correctness of my periodic table."
……
"Based on a continuation of similar properties, I boldly predict that in the vacant places will be new elements that have not yet been discovered, which I call aluminum-like and silicon-like, and they should have ......... may be similar to ......... found in the ore."
……
"This is my exposition and speculation on the periodic relationship between elemental properties and atomic weights, and I hope it can be verified by all arcanists."
Lucian stopped the quill, looked at the paper repeatedly, blew lightly on it, put it away and put it in the storage bag.
The atomic weights that need to be corrected are partly due to the inability of strange isotopes to be separated, and Lucian did not expect magicians to find a way to separate them in a short period of time, while the remaining parts were either determined earlier, many methods have not yet appeared, or there were problems during purification, and the result was a small error, but there was no error in the later use, and the determiner was a high-level arcanist, so it was ignored.
These days, Lucian has verified their correct atomic weights.
When he left the laboratory, it was already dark on a cold winter night, and Lucian put his hands in the pockets of his double-breasted black dress and slowly returned to his garden villa, thinking about his next plans.
Suddenly, there was laughter behind him: "Mr. Evans, you will resume classes on Monday, I wonder if you are ready to teach seriously?"
The voice was low but with a mocking smile, it was Beat, who had just finished his magic experiment.
Lucian glanced back at him and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Mr. Beat, I've asked Mr. Headmaster for leave because I'm going to the Alinge Magic Tower to renew my Arcanist badge on Monday. You know, because in the last issue of "Magic", my paper was cited by His Excellency the Great Arcanist, and in the latest issue of "Sonic", "Electromagnetism", "Ordinary Arcanist Monthly" and other journals, there are many studies that quote my thesis and new magic, about seven or eight. Oh, I forgot that Mr. Beyat, you have never had such an experience, and I sincerely apologize for mentioning your sadness."
Beatrice took two deep breaths: "You are just lucky, a small experiment inspired His Excellency the Great Arcanist. Hmph, I hope your luck will always be so good!"
He was angry at Lucian's ostentation and sarcasm, and the guy who should have been low-key and stable after being punished dared to be so bad, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead!
After saying that, Beatle stroked his black top hat and left from another fork in the magic garden.
Lucian looked at Beat's figure and shook his head slightly, how could such a guy have a terrifying undead who has been following him.
After returning to the garden villa, it was brightly lit, and the six apprentices including Annick, Leilia, and Splinter who came to tutor on Saturday afternoon were still writing in the living room, and there were one calculus paper after another on the coffee table or low table in front of them.
"Good evening, Mr. Evans." Seeing Lucian return, they seemed to wake up from the illusion of isolation, and nodded in greeting with red eyes.
Lucian nodded lightly and smiled: "How did this paper do in the end?"
"It's so difficult! I think some of the questions are incomprehensible, they are too weird!" Heidi, the most lively, raised her hand and replied with a sad and indignant face, and the other apprentices, including the quiet Cherie and the unruly Splinter, all nodded slightly in agreement.
Lucian laughed and said, "This is an exercise to help you exercise your thinking skills, don't do it in a reckless way. Okay, take it back, give it to me next Saturday."
This is a true Mathematical Olympiad!
Hearing that they could leave, Heidi and Leilia couldn't help but let out a cheer of excitement and liberation, then stuck out their tongues and lowered their heads not to look at Lucian, and the rest of the apprentices showed signs of joy either obviously or faintly.
Lucian pretended not to see it and ordered the maid to send the apprentices away.
The apprentices walked out of the garden villa and subconsciously looked back, this black villa with candlelight was like a monster quietly hiding in the dark, choosing people to eat.
Shivering slightly, Heidi looked at the test paper in her hand: "Leiliya, Cherie, Annick, did we do something wrong? You shouldn't have asked Mr. Evans for tutoring! It's so tiring and painful!"
"But I think the progress is obvious." It turned out to be Sprint who made this evaluation, "We are not official magicians yet, so what does it matter if we are a little tired and bitter. It's not easy to meet a good teacher like Mr. Evans."
Katrina and Annick nodded in agreement.
Heidi wailed: "I know, but I really have a headache, and I really want to have fun on the weekend! Mr. Evans is really a demon, I love and hate him!"
No one objected to this sentence, even though Sprint puffed out his cheeks, obviously agreed.
…………
At nine o'clock on Monday morning, a carriage slowly stopped in front of the headquarters of the Magic Council.
Lucian, who was wearing a white shirt, a brown vest, and a black double-breasted long dress, paid the coachman for the ride, put on a black top hat, and calmly and calmly stepped on the steps. At this point, the undead disappeared without a trace.
As he passed through the gate, Prospel shouted weakly: "Welcome to the Magic Council headquarters. As long as you refine a female tower spirit, you will be welcomed by me most warmly."
Lucian ignored Prospel and said the same to every magician who came here, and went directly into the "Magician Management Department" in District 4.
Cindy, who had just received a magician, was slightly surprised to see Lucian, and then blinked her pretty brown eyes: "Yo, who is this? Mr. Evans, who hasn't been out of Douglas School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for more than a month!"
Her tone was ridiculous and slightly complaining, how could she have a friend who was in Alinge but hadn't seen her for more than a month.
"Wow, isn't this our big celebrity? The paper was quoted by Mr. Evans, the Great Arcanist! It's good that you haven't forgotten us." Dona also expressed her welcome in an exaggerated tone.
Lucian smiled helplessly: "I will hurry up to make up for the arcane foundation and write a thesis. By the way, didn't you see Lazar?"
Seeing that Lucian's attitude was not cold, and he did not alienate himself and others because of his fame, the two magic apprentices became happy and chattered to share interesting facts about the council headquarters with Lucian, such as Lazar was summoned to Rentat to prepare for a meeting in a month because of the "Elemental Will", such as the Great Arcanist Brooke who proved that "light is electromagnetic waves" received the "Silver Moon Medal" jointly established by the Royal Academy of Magic in Briana, the Silver Moon Song Alliance, and the High Tower, which is the highest honor in the electromagnetic system, astrological system, and light and dark system—— This means nothing to His Excellency the Great Arcanist, this is his third one.
In addition to the "Immortal Throne" of the Necromancer system, the "Silver Moon Medal" of the electromagnetic system, the astrological system, and the Light and Dark system, as well as the "Wizard Laurel Crown" jointly established by the Calais Magic Academy and the House of Wizards, it is mainly aimed at the magical factions that retain the knowledge of the ancient magical empire in parts such as change, illusion and summoning, as well as the "Ice and Snow Medal" set up by the huts of the Northland and Palmela for the heat system and force field system, and the "Ice and Snow Medal" set up by the tower for the force field system, astrological system and simple mathematical knowledge. Arcane Scepter" award.
They were all established after the emergence of the "Holm Crown Award". In order to maintain a fair image, the Magic Council did not intervene, but simply acted as a supervisor.
After chatting with Cindy and the others for a while, and learning about the latest developments at the Magic Council headquarters, Lucian knocked on Eric's office door.
A suspicious smile appeared on Erik's stiff and serious face: "Evans, are you going to update the badge?"
After seeing that Lucian's paper was cited by the Storm Lord, he expected that he would come over to update the arcane and magic badges after the publication of this month's issue.
Lucian smiled and nodded: "Yes, please Mr. Eric. But before the update, I have two things to do, one is that I suddenly had an inspiration in this month's arcane and magic studies, and I wrote a new arcane paper that I want to submit to the review committee, and the other is that I want to apply for the arcane basic assessment."
In his opinion, after the first paper received a groundbreaking evaluation and a citation from the Great Arcanist, if Lucian did not have the confidence to vigorously try to write another paper, it would not be in line with the characteristics of his age.
But hearing the last half of the sentence, Eric blurted out: "Really? Are you sure? How long have you been studying arcane?"
Three questions in a row fully showed his surprise.
"Yes, although I have only studied for about three months, I feel that I have a lot of arcane talent and have mastered the basics. Mr. Eric, there's nothing strange about that, right? His Excellency Brooke passed the arcane basic assessment at the age of eleven." Lucian boasted unhurriedly.
Eric thought it was ridiculous: "But Your Excellency Brooke has been studying for two years, not three months!"
"But I have a magical foundation, an adult's memory and thinking ability, and a mature learning method. Lucian replied confidently.
Eric's light gray eyes stared at Lucian's eyes seriously, and seeing that he did not waver, he muttered: "Since you are evaluated as having an arcanist mind, then I will test you."
Before going to the assessment room, Eric casually wrote the word "elemental" in Lucian's arcane paper and put it into the iron cage, and rang the bell.
…………
The same spacious house was also ringing with bells.
"Necromancer? Transfer to Mr. Pessol, Ms. Tina Dimos."
……
"Element? Transfer to Mr. Gaston, Mr. Overery."
…………
In a room filled with bottles of different elements, a brown earth elemental body with red eyes flashed red, and picked up the paper from the magic teleportation array:
"On the Periodic Relationship between Elemental Properties and Atomic Weights and Predictions of Some New Elements, well, a magician who does not have a formal arcanist rank, and who has discussed the periodicity of elements that have not progressed for a long time, will not bother Mr. Gaston, he still has important business in Rentatt. The headquarters of the "Elemental" journal is also in Rentatt, so there is no need to trouble Matthew to fly so far to deliver letters. Mr. Larry happens to be here, so I will leave it to him for review."
So the paper was turned around and went to Larry, who had a rough yellow beard.
Larry's light blue eyes looked at the titles of several papers in his hand, and casually put them aside: "Matthew, pick it up in three days."
The tawny owl Matthew spreads his wings and flies away.
